(Another M.I.K.E., known as Mike, is an Indonesian Singer who won the finals of Indonesian Idol. His songs are tagged on this page.)
Although mostly known for his productions under the aliases M.I.K.E., Push and Plastic Boy, Mike has released hundreds of records under more than eighty aliases and collaborations since 1992 in a wide variety of styles ranging from rave, techno, progressive house, trance, electro to even R&B, from accessible commercial anthems to minimalist underground sounds. He also produced tracks for Yves DeRuyter, Marco Bailey,Armin Van Buuren, Ian Van Dahl and Diabokua.
At the age of 18, Mike handed his first demo tape to the Antwerp record company USA Import Music and released his first record as Vision Act. In 1996 he signed with Lightning Records (the parent company of Bonzai Records) where he worked with most of its artists and achieved his major commercial breakthrough in 1998 with the trance anthem "Universal Nation" under his Push guise, one of the best selling dance vinyls of all time which even ended up in mainstream singles charts all over the world. This was followed up by two more chart hits, "Strange World" and "The Legacy".
As the list continued, creating such hits brought on major appeal by huge names like Moby, Ferry Corsten, Armin van Buuren, Gareth Emery and so much more - which of whom M.I.K.E produced impressive collaborations and remixes for.
As time passed and M.I.K.E.'s name spread, popular demand began to expand rapidly worldwide! From the UK, to cities all around Europe & straight across the Atlantic & into North America and down Latin America, Asia and Australia - Ministry of Sound, DanceValley, Tomorrowland, Trance Energy, Winter Music Conference - were some of the prestigious venues that till this day M.I.K.E. is noticed for as a top leading performer/DJ.
And we wonder, where does he find the time to make so many hit releases? Through the wave of fans, the touring, atmosphere and passion for music are what tell the stories behind each of his exceptional tracks labeled under monikers Push, Plastic boy, to his most widely used name - M.I.K.E.
And now teaming up with labels such as Sirup Music, High Contrast Records, Garuda Music, and Armada Music, he continues introducing fresh new sounds with edge & a twist of progressive and club house for a totally modish blend. You can grab a taste on his weekly radio show 'Club Elite Sessions', also heard on various stations worldwide including SiriusXM and Digitally Imported Radio .

Someone Somewhere
M.I.K.E. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But she's changed and left
And now she's just a stranger
I used to love her
And I think it isn't quite over
I don't know where she is right now
I don't know who she is right now
I don't know what to do now
She's just someone else
Somewhere else
She's just someone else
Somewhere else
And I'm drowning in all these memories
Every place seems so empty without her
In M.I.K.E.'s song "Someone Somewhere," the lyrics express a sense of longing for a person who has changed and left the singer's life. The song speaks of a past connection, acknowledging that there was a time when the singer knew and loved this person deeply. However, things have changed, and now the person feels like a stranger. The lyrics convey a feeling of confusion and uncertainty about the current state of this person's life.
The singer expresses a sense of loss and a lack of understanding of where this person is, who they have become, and what to do in response to the situation. The repetition of the lines "I don't know where she is right now" and "I don't know what to do now" showcases the singer's feelings of being lost and stuck in a state of limbo.
Furthermore, the chorus emphasizes the singer's realization that this person is now merely someone else, somewhere else. The reminiscence of memories and the feeling of emptiness in every place without her suggest that the singer still holds on to the emotional impact of this lost connection.
Overall, the lyrics of "Someone Somewhere" convey a mixture of longing, confusion, and a yearning for understanding in a situation where someone important has become a stranger and left a void in the singer's life.

I used to know her
There was a time when I had a deep understanding of her
But she's changed and left
However, she has undergone a transformation and departed from my life
And now she's just a stranger
Presently, she is completely unfamiliar to me
I used to love her
In the past, I had intense feelings of affection towards her
And I think it isn't quite over
I believe that there is still unfinished emotional connection between us
I don't know where she is right now
At this moment, I am unaware of her location
I don't know who she is right now
At this moment, I am uncertain about her identity
I don't know what to do now
I am currently at a loss regarding the appropriate course of action
She's just someone else
She has become a mere individual separate from me
Somewhere else
Existing in a different place or state
She's just someone else
She has become a mere individual separate from me
Somewhere else
Existing in a different place or state
And I'm drowning in all these memories
I am overwhelmed and consumed by the recollection of our shared experiences
Every place seems so empty without her
In her absence, all locations feel devoid of meaning and significance

This one here is my absolutely favorite track from M.I.K.E. Absolutely stunning!
Zlatan Nike
This is the so-called GOLD vinyl, one of the highlights of the Belgian E.T.
Although I consider "Sunrise At Palamos" the number one work on that vinyl (and perhaps my favorite work of the Belgian icon), I fully understand its preference. Both sound very similar, they are timeless classics.
M.I.KE. is a legend, an idol, an inspiration!!!
Marc Heiden
I totally agree!
