  • In my opinion, SO MUCH BETTER THAN THE ORIGINAL! :-D

  • mikaaaa i want to eat you

  • this makes me sad... It's a terrible TERRIBLE cover!

  • eh, this cover is horrid!

  • "..."avea" is to have " in rom...:0)....?

  • "avea the same jeans"...etc

  • i love the view and i love mika... so why should i not love them when they're kind of mixed together? altough - i like the "the view" version much better.

  • A suppose tht it is aright bt I'm just used 2 the view singing in and they sing it their own way so...and wen a said it meant something 2 them a meant tht they were the 1 tht came up with the song there was a reason for tht

  • He totally ruins a fucking gd Song!! The view sing this song for a reason!! They r class at singing it and it means somethin 2 them

  • @xxdundeegalxx how does he ruin it? i think he sang it well, and im sure he wouldn't have covered it if it didn't mean something to him too. dont get me wrong, the view are definately class, but this cover aint that bad :)

  • Comment removed

  • i feel lika a trator coz the veiw (te origonal singers) whent to my high school st johns r.c high school dundee get right in there but mikas better

    

  • .... Yeah no Mika does it better

  • Sometimes the world is pretty small ...

  • mika is a one hit wonder? BHAHAHAHAHHAA good joke!!!

  • This song sounds like it could be an actually mika song haha

  • Tis very good :) I just love the song whoevers its by with their different take on it!

  • Okay sorry xD but this is just bullshit, I think it's really nice that he took the song and made it his own if you know what I mean. But the View, does this song so much better.

    Nice try though!

  • I like this cover, his voice is great :)....peace

  • FUCK ! MUCH BETTER THEN THE ORIGINAL , THATS HOW I THINK ..

    PS : MIKA IS AMAIZINGGGGGGG ! (:

  • I love this alot!

  • holly cow the pic @0:36 my gosh he looks like woman a lot.Wow so sexy.Then i looked down and OMG!!! Those feet!! Whoa!!

  • i think the main reason most people dont like mika is because i can imagine, and have seen my mum loveing him -.-

  • ive heard a lot worse covers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • i love this song so much, and Mika has made it his own <3 i am not to keen on him usually, but this is really good :D

  • Never even heard of the view or let alone this song :L so I say, Mika does it better cuz he's awesome! all you haters can suck it

  • personally i think its poo

    

    but he did do a good jop singing it

  • nnnnnnnnnnnoooooooooooooo!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!

    i love mika but this is one of my fave songs and its just wrong

    kx

  • i hope for mikas sake that he doesnt bump into the view actually nah i do he deserves a smack for this heap of shite and i dont care if he wants to put his own spin on it he ruined a great song by an even greater band!

  • Like the walkin in memphis spin to the song !

  • Wow! :)

  • Love this cover! its honestly the best cover that I've ever heard him do!

  • Not a fan, he'd be better off covering something else...

  • killed it.

  • mika is sooo great :)

  • sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­ooooooooooooooooooo fucking bad, cant get over how bad it is.

  • DREADFUL.

  • Well, simply because I'm Scottish I'm going to argue that The View's version is just the dogs danglers. But come on, Mika did the song justice. Epic cover with a bit of Brimfull Of Asha in it.

    Love it <3

  • everything from mika is great!

    (I only hate the picture 0:36 he looks like a girlxd)

  • i hate this crap

  • I prefer this :/

  • i wanna feel his hair...lol

  • @jasperwhitlock09 Anyone who doesn't want? LOL =)

  • @jasperwhitlock09 lol omg every time i see pics of him im like 'I WANT MY FINGERS IN THAT HAIR" XD only slightly creepy of me.

  • Gotta admit, its not as good as the original, but how can it even compete?

    Still a good cover tho

  • i heard this before the view;s original aha and this one is greatttt

  • i like this but i'm scottish and i love the view but i think mika puts a great twist on this :D

  • photo 1:10 <3 He is so cute ;)

  • Bellissima sta canzone. Davvero. Mika UNICO-

  • i love this ;)

    :D

    its actually AMAZING.

    thanks so much for posting!!! :D

  • the view;s version iss muuuuch better xD the scottish accent just makes the song lolz xD hehe jk

  • I love it !! He's getting crazy in this song ! xD

  • hey.. that's the song I heard on the radio the other day.. Cool! I didn't know it before now.

  • waaaa Mikaaa<333

  • this is a really good cover :)

  • Comment removed

  • I LOVE THIS COVER!

  • I want to know of who is the song..? I liked it!!

  • @girlknewtoomuch it is by the view

  • @KMSsisters thank you 4 the information, but... I have a doubt, the name of the band who sing it is "view"??... sorry if I don´t speak very good, english is not my lenguage, I speak spanish =)

  • @girlknewtoomuch no the band is actually called 'the view'. type it in on youtube 'The View - Same Jeans'

  • @KMSsisters thank you very very much!! I ´ll look 4 it!! =)

  • vive the view!!!!! nice ads for them!

  • Unexpected artist to cover The View.

    Always a compliment though : )

  • X )

  • i wanna dance now!! :D

  • of course i like view's original version. but i prefer this one. The view sounds monotone. And btw is MIKA singin i said i am making a fool of myself, right?! or is it just me. i think that s kinda funny.

    so MIKA u are awesome!

  • the view is much better ,this sounds gay

  • sounds better with a good dundee accent but nevertheless a good cover

  • This is really good-MIKA IS GOD!!!

    BTW I love the View too

  • Comment removed

  • It's still a compliment to have someone else play your dongs, ken?

  • I have not heard The View's version of this, but I like how MIKA sings it.

    Just because you don't like it doesn't mean you have to leave rude comments. Haven't you guys ever heard "If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything."?

  • soooooo bad leave it to the view. it just sounds weird

    VIEW ROCK

  • not a bad cover to be honest

  • I always wonder why people get so defensive when a certain artist sings another artist's song. That's why it's called a cover, isn't it? So that the artist can put his own spin, flavor, and personality in it?

    This is quintessential Mika and obviously Mika fans would love it (like me). Non-Mika fans will either love it or hate it, depending on how open-minded they are about listening to different styles of music. It's sad that people are being unecessarily rude to something they don't like.

  • @goshclare I totally agree.

  • @goshclare nah hes took a top class song and shat it out his arse. who ever the fuck mika is anyway.

  • @rosscol601 look at it like this i dont remember who sang the original !!

  • @Locker10a i feel sorry for you. ive never heard any other of this poofs songs and dont intend on doing so.

  • @rosscol601 No need to feel sorry for me im alright! i dont really give a shite wheather u like him or not like All i know is he is more famous and has made more money the the original atrists!!

  • @Locker10a More famous? Shut yer puss. What has this artist done since a few hits like "Grace Kelly" and "Big Girls" or what ever its called. The View have realsed 2 albums (1st album got #1 and 2nd album got to #4) and a thrid album forthcoming. This man here is a one hit wonder who no-one will remember in 5 years time.

  • @euanrocks How can he be a one hit wonder if he as way more thanone hit! Shur u said it yourself!!haha All im saying is i listen to the radio alot when i watch TV i always watch the music channels and in general i am exposed to music alot and mika is far more well known then the view i dont know much about them atall wheres i know more bout mika and i wouldnt go out of my way to look him up r buy his music he is just more popular im sorry if its an inconvieniant truth!!And i wont shut me puss :D

  • @goshclare So true. It's as if people forget that that is how songs became well known before audio recordings existed. The cover song is the original file sharing. 

  • the view are vomiting on theirself

  • may be a good one if you don't know the original.

    cause that one is just way better!

  • SUE THE CUNT ;)

  • Great version! Mika rocks!

  • the worst version i have ever heard in my life. the view should sue

  • this is amazing! I(L)him.. i saw him live.. and haven't been able to stop listening to him :)

  • bit of a bad cover not relly bad but he did murder it

  • i like the one by the view better but i guess i like rock better thn pop :p

  • better them the originallllll

    woooooo

    ;D

  • 20.3.2010 :):):)

  • lalala

    i wear the same jeans on for four days now

    lalalala

    =)

  • aaaaaaaah i love the pictures he looks so good

  • Love itt ! xD

  • hes fucked up this track

    but i cant help listenin to it over and OVER again !

  • he's so sexy and sassy, phwoar.

    <3 <3 <3 <3

  • Why does Mika start singing "Brimful Of Asha" and another song which I cannot remember the title of towards the end of the song. Good cover tho!

  • Good point, the other song is Walking In Memphis. I think he's doing it because both of those songs have a similar tune to Same Jeans (that's just a guess though).

  • I think your right on there, they do have the same chords and melody. Yeah the other song was Walking In Memphis, cheers for that.

  • i love it, going to want to listen to the original now! : )

  • i like this better then the original

  • yay mika!!!

    love this cover  :)

  • It's okay, but the original is better.

  • Is he gay or not Hmmmm he would be a good other halk for Gok anyway...

  • I Love Mika, and this song, and Mika's version of this song (:

  • I Like It <3 Mika Adds His Own Touch Makes It Different From The Original =)

  • this cover is swag

  • Well the view's singers voice is better for the song. But Mika's a more energetic singer.

  • Not quite as good ss the view but I kinda like Mika so ok lol

  • Awesome. Love the lil Walking In Memphis bit, it's so kewell! =DD

  • but what the fuck is this shit ?

  • aaaaaaahhhhh wtf lol.

    nobody can really cover this especially this cunt lol.

    fair enough if it was a good try but thats just shit haha.

    the view are on fire

  • guys the reason this a shit version is coz they guys not putting the effort and heart in to it that kyle puts in to it when the view does it so please just stop lying to your selfs and face it the view are the dogs bollocks ok much love and good night !!

  • kyles usually to steaming to put it into it weirdo

  • awsome

  • This version is better than the original, mainly because the lead of the View can't sing.

  • I Think that the original is way better, but still, MIKA putted effort in it so let's give him a credit

  • i love this guy soo much :>

  • I agree with Brian and minion.

  • Bastards.

  • Fuck You Haters. This Is Better Than The Veiws Version

    I Love You Forever Meeks <3

  • mika is shite the views version is alot better i mean there not the best band but there alot better than that

  • Why did you remove my comment :O I only said he ruined the song, he is a good singer but the view sing it better

  • like it but not as much as the orginal

  • i prefer mikas version because the other is slower but i love the original aswell

  • what the fuck is this shite?

    terrible , think my ears are bleeding, anyone who likes this needs to get a grip!

    its tht bad i was goin to give it 1* out of 5 but it doesnt even deserve tht!

  • Great song-great band-great cover :)

  • you always have to like the original, in all song covers.

    but sometimes the covers are great too

  • Comment removed

  • Okay, so many he doesn't sing it the same WAY that the view sings it, but he still sings it amazingly!!

    Sorry, but I actually PREFER this version. And I'm not that much of a mika fan...

  • the song at 2.12 is walking in memphis marc colne*** not sure on the spellin or cher

  • original is the original and i love it the view is an awesome band! However i realllyyyyy like Mika's version too he really made it too his own(:

    It's really funn<3333

  • Killed It.

    This Is Rubbish He Is A Gay Poofter.

  • so`s your mum.

    ha.

  • Why have you capitalised every letter? Only stupid people do that.

    And "Poufter" MEANS gay. So there's no need to use both words.

  • Love it!!!!!!

    I really cant decide which i prefer, i love both versions soo much!

    Mika is definately hotter though xD

  • what is the song at 2:12 cant remmeber what it is

  • walking in memphis

  • absolute shit. completely slaughtered the original

  • i am disgusted at this.

    load of crap tbh

    sorry pal

  • its ok but i perfur the veiw by far :)

  • the original was way way better =/

  • Am I the only one who likes this cover?

  • No. I like it, too. I just fear I'm no one to take as a yardstick ;-)

  • SHIT!

  • his is awful

  • this song is basicly a copy of a brimful of asha so why are people bothered about how MIKA sings it?

  • killed it.

  • THE VIEW DO IT GREAT THIS

    FRADE NOT

  • pure pants man ruins it mon the view! view are on fire!

  • shite

  • i love mika, but his song just doesnt do it for him. His own songs are great, he should stick to them.

    The original version of this song is brilliant!

  • how to ruin a brilliant song

  • loads of bands and singers do covers so why do people suddenly notice it here?

    i think he's brilliant no matter what he sings :D

  • i think im paranoid.....

  • love it!

  • No the song is not ruined, its great! He has a nice sound, and it's his own sound. I love it!!!
