“I asked him to leave”, Mika evokes Andy, his companion “for 17 years” who inspired him for his latest album

Coach of The Voice, a unique artist with many flagship titles… Mika no longer needs to be introduced. At 40, the artist is still as passionate about music and proved it on Friday December 1, 2023 with the release of his new album May your head always bloomfour years after the release of My Name Is Michael Holbrook. In this new project, Zazie’s sidekick sings his “love” to his companion in Me, Andy, and Paris.

A title to which Julia Vignali, Kad Merad’s companion, wanted to return when she received Mika

last weekend on Europe 1. “You dedicated a song to your partner Andy with whom you have been in a relationship for 15 years…”she indicated before her guest corrected: “Only 15 years left, 17 years!”

Mika transformed her rage into love

“You were almost always with Andy.”quipped the journalist before asking why the singer did not “never talked about this story”. The opportunity for the main interested party to indicate how this piece came to be. And it would all have started from an argument, “and it was in Paris.” “It was the first song and I asked him to leave. He went to the airport bam! I wanted to use this energy that I had in me instead of it remaining destructive and negative and disgusting… this rage. I wanted to transform it into something else.”first confided Mika.

While in Milan, the 40-year-old artist visited “put on the piano” and has “written in French”. “I told myself that it happened in Paris, he tells me that he no longer wants to be in Paris with me since he doesn’t like it. He doesn’t speak French. And I wrote the song in French because I had the impression that I could express myself, confess, explain everything, and that he wasn’t going to understand. And there, I realize that there really is an idea, that I can “express in French, in another way, with complete confidence, with this illusion that very few people will understand”, he continued. But Mika made a mistake. Indeed, when Julia Vignali asked him if “Andy got it.”the main interested party indicated that “Yes”. A way to bury the hatchet perhaps.
