I always pronnounced it as "Michael", until I watched the DVD from the recording of Ayreon's "The Human Equation", where they pronounce it "Mee-Kah-el". That was around two weeks ago. I've been saying "Michael" for the last two years, it's kind of embarassing.

That's what this guy said, anyway.

^Great composer. Sadly neglected.

At the show last night here in Cleveland he was Mr. Cunt...(long string of cleverly put together synonomous words)....fuckface

Heh.

I'd rather just call him "Mike-all"than jumping all giddy and excited yelling out "mi-kay-al" with the great potential of looking like a retard.

Oh wait.. that happened anyways.

>.<

It didn't occur to you that Michael is an English name?

 

[Wyrmwood]

Who really cares? Mike is Mikael, Mikael is Mike. Who cares how it's pronounced? I'm not going to call him Mee-kah-el because that's a pain in the ass. I'll call him Mike, and he'll LIKE it.

 

[Vivören]

^ I'm gonna you Rufus Beefsteak Queef, because Wyrmwood is such a pain.

 

[Vivören]

Oh, AND YOU'LL LIKE IT!

 

[Wyrmwood]

Not as much as you will.

Yes, but I also don't know shit about pronnouncing swedish names.

 

[wut wut]

I always thought it was Mick-Ale.

Mick as in Jagger, Ale as in Beer.

 

[Wyrmwood]

It's Mmm-eye-kee-all.

 

[DarkGift]

There you have it guys,that's the correct way of saying it,end of discussion(although it's said with a gay Stockholm accent):Smug:

Well, Mike's from Stockholm ;P

 

[A fair judgement]

I always thought it was Mick-Ale.

Mick as in Jagger, Ale as in Beer.

So did I. I've been saying it like that for years and so has some people that I know.
