Mika did on the piano, especially the end. The chords are the same as the bass line he

| I think the video for this is suppose to premiere on Saturday. According to Wikipedia, there's suppose to be a stripper, the same little girl from the first video, and an old lady popping out of a cake. Now I know Wikipedia isn't very reliable but it sounds like something Mika would do, lol. | |

| Its kinda like he's sarcastic with "everybody's going to love today", as in everybody's in their ideal of "love", which is just said pretty casually today. Then he talks about hookers for a while, which goes with the "everybody will 'love' today". Then, he feels like he wants a girl to love him as well, but she really doesn't feel the same way, and how people today are just kind of looking for this lessened version of 'love' just to say they are. That's probably the longest sentence I've ever written, but that's what I got out of the song. | |

| "Perhaps I'm over looking it a little but I get restless if I don't find a deep meaning to a song. :P" I definetely know how you feel there, definetely. I think you're right about the materialistic love thing, because the way he says, "Everybody's gonna love today" over and over seems sarcastic and A LOT [his definition=everybody] of people use the word love as if it means nothing anymore, it is not taken seriously much. So yeah, I think. ^.^ | |

| Mika said in an interview it was about how everyone is out trying to find love or just sex in some cases. No matter what we're looking for or how we go about doing it, it's basically all just the same thing. He also said that he was really happy when he wrote this song and it's like a command for anyone listening to the song to feel the same way he did when he wrote it. Well, it worked for me because I always smile when I hear it, lol. | |

| i think that mika has a refreshing way of stating the meaning of a song up front. it makes sense and it cuts straight to the point. i personally like this song a lot better than grace kelly because it seems more commericialized but it's not as appealing. | |

| I'm guessing this is about a hooker, if we're going to state the obvious. Although it's not real love, is it? Just materialistic love. Perhaps I'm over looking it a little but I get restless if I don't find a deep meaning to a song. :P | |

| Mika explained in an interview with him: I was really happy when I wrote this and when I’m in that kind of mood I always hope everyone else feels the same way. Everybody is looking for the same thing — to love someone and be loved back. Or just to get laid. It all depends on how you look for it. Love Today captures that, the euphoric feeling you get when those things go right. | |

| Even though I hate pop songs, but the lyrics to this song is pretty cool, esp. the 'Love Love me, Love Love me' that is in normal voice. The song is pretty obvious, though unnecessarily reiterated. | |

| Del Marquis had this one right. Anyone who said it's about a hooker or whatever is WAY off. Mika was in a really happy/buzzed mood one day and he felt everyone should feel that way so he wrote this song. it's kind of an order for everyone to just be happy and love each other and feel the way he was feeling. It also talks about different people going about trying to find either love or sex. However, no matter how they do it, everyone's doing the same thing. amilo...yea like we all watch teletubbies and would know that, huh? How about growing up and watching some big people shows, eh? My proof this song is what I say: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CzL5ajIB3Rw | |
