  • I'd love to see Mika performing Harry Nilsson's "One"

    i'll be the very best !!!

  • amazing. i just love mika

  • Don't like his voice for this one

  • Cover versions call for improvisation. Trust me, because I do it a lot when I sing. This key makes it sound more sweet, like a love song. I like his version very much, no matter how many times he screwed up. He's good at covering up his mistakes.

  • totally agree with you imho mika's cover is the best

  • looks like sacha baron cohen.

  • Aww, bless, he gets the words wrong, how cute.

  • I love Mika but he's got not only the words wrong, as you said. He's sang wrong notes.

  • When you're covering a song the notes are open for interpretation lol. If you wanted to hear the exact same version you may aswell listen to the original. I think he interprets it nice :)

    Besides the wrong words lol.

  • I agree untill some point. You can give your own vision of the song. But to say that you can sing a D instead of a C or Minor instead of Major, well, that is pushing your freedom too far. But anyway, Mika is always good.

  • if you kept it in the same key but it was too low or high for you to sing then you would have to go up or down a full octave which would be much more drastic change to the song than just changing a key, so I'm not too sure how it's pushing anything. Though I will agree with you on something, Mika is indeed always good!!

  • Uhmm Can you really be like "hey you wrote that song incorrectly, you're suposed to sing it like this, and you messed these wordsup" when hewrote them??>

  • No. Mika rewrote Sweet dreams and he was successful on that job. Everybody's talking by Mika turned into another song. Mika's song is good but only Olver gave the right reading for Everybody's talking..

  • Yeah CatOnAHorse, it's interpretation, it really doesn't matter about the notes as long as they fit in with the chord he's playing at the time. I sing my songs differently live to what I do in the studio, and it still works.

  • l original est mille fois mieux (bien essayée)

  • why is that?

  • YEAH,YEAH :'D

    I LOVE MIKA

  • Really interesting version of this classic. Great key changes. Piano reminiscent of Bach's prelude no 1

  • Are you saying that what everyone else thinks are mistakes he did on purpose?

  • hahaha

  • I like the Nilsson version as well, but I find this one to be more calming and sweet.

  • je prefere la version originale de harry nilsson

  • wow two of my favorite artists in one track! I LOVE THIS!

  • very good.

  • Thanks!

  • Can somebody say me what is a cover please?

  • Singing a song that someone else wrote and performed.

  • VERY nicely done

  • I love how you sing this song mika!! <3

  • you're rubbish

  • your face is terrible

    vole' T

  • heya guys... if you don`t like mika, WHY ARE YOU WATCHIN´HIS VIDEOS??!!!!! mika did this song fantastic, i think. if you like the original better, go and watch it, and don`t post such silly comments! WE are MIKAFANS, WE like this one MORE and WE don`t go and write something like *mika did it much better* under the original. so shut up

  • Maybe they wanted to see if they liked it. People have a right to voice their opinions on here, just as much as you and I do.

    And, for the record, I like Mika.

  • mika love you.

    i love it when you sing this song.

  • all you Harry Nilsson enthusiasts should go and watch the original. i personally like this better, Mika made it his own rather than trying to be someone he's not. if you came here to make annoying comments, well... maybe you shouldn't have, haha! :}

    just let us Mika lovers have our fun.

  • you should hear the paulo nutini version of everybodys talkin...amazing that anyone could do this hit justice...very impressive...a

  • paolo nutini's one is so ace i came to check the mika version cause everyone was raving about it by it just doesnt compare to paolo's!

  • They're just sooo different, you can't compare them. We'll just have to love them both ^.^

  • I LOVE this version! I LOVE the sound of his voice!! It's like Magic...ahhhh.

  • reprise totalement inutile ! ( ecoutez l'original qui est 100 fois plus beau )

  • lmao.

  • if you don't have anything nice to say, say it somewhere else. if you don't like Mika you don't have to listen to him.

  • he looks like the Q from amsterdam westerpark!

  • hey i think mika sings it well better than Harry Nilsson xxx

    Harry Nilsson's cover of it is classic,

    but Mika's is terrific.

  • Mika's version has a completely different feel to Harry Nilsson's, he's made it his own here. I really love them both.
