(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 .

M.I.K.E. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Where are you going
Do you think
I really haven't noticed
Oh babe
All I want is a moment
Where are you going
Is there anything you want to tell me
I come home
To empty sheets
When I wake up
You aren't there next to me
You say you're working
But I know that you aren't
Cause work don't call
At 3 in the morning
I made you the best part of me
And I gave you my everything
My trust yeah you blew it
But still I knew it
Boy you can't play someone smarter than you
Now you get to see ice queen
And revenge is the sweetest thing
My trust yeah you blew it
But I still knew it
Boy you can't play someone smarter than you
This the shit that happens
When a girl is too damn loyal
Make a guy think he too damn royal
I don't know I stooped so low
Me and my college degrees
With a man without a G.E.D
I don't know what you hoped to see
Why would I fight a woman that far underneath me
Why should I pay for something useless
I can get something better for free
I made you the best part of me
And I gave you my everything
My trust yeah you blew it
But still I knew it
Boy you can't play someone smarter than you
Now you see ice queen
And revenge is the sweetest thing
My trust yeah you blew it
But I still knew it
Boy you can't play someone smarter than you
I made you the best part of me
And I gave you my everything
My trust yeah you blew it
But still I knew it
Boy you can't play someone smarter than you
Now you see ice queen
And revenge is the sweetest thing
My trust yeah you blew it
But I still knew it
Boy you can't play someone smarter than you
The lyrics to M.I.K.E.'s "The Queen" portray a woman who has been played and betrayed by her man. The song begins with the woman questioning her partner's actions and motives, wondering where he is going and whether he has anything to share with her. She feels unsettled and uncertain, sensing that he is hiding something from her.
As the song progresses, we learn that the woman has been left alone in bed while her partner is out doing who-knows-what. He claims to be working, but she knows the truth - he is cheating on her. She has given him everything, including her trust, but he has selfishly betrayed her. Yet, despite his deception, she sees through his lies and deception, understanding that she cannot be played by someone who is not as smart as she is. The woman has become an "ice queen," seeking revenge for the pain he has caused her, but also recognizing that she deserves something better and stronger for herself.
Overall, "The Queen" is a powerful anthem for women who have been hurt and betrayed, encouraging them to recognize their own strength and worth in the face of hardship and heartbreak.
