More quotes by Mika
My first record was about childhood. There were a lot of nursery rhyme and fairytale references it was all about being naive.
Mika
When you're not part of a club, you have to find another way of surviving.
Mika
I write songs about fat girls and about men who run off to Mexico.

Some people say I've got a five-octave range, which is ridiculous. That would mean I'd sing like Mariah Carey or that alien in 'The Fifth Element.' And I'm nothing like that blue alien. I've got a range of about 3 1/2 octaves.
Mika
I think my music generally transcends a lot of genres.

Mika
I don't know where my father is from. I just don't. He's lived in so many countries.
Mika
So foolish is the heart of man that he ever puts his hope in the future, learning nothing from his past errors and fancying that tomorrow must be better than today.
Mika
Identity for me is something that has to be played with and explored, and not become complacent about or uninterested in.
Mika
I say I have a midlife crisis every time I start and finish a record.
Mika
My life isn't tabloid-friendly.
Mika
The one thing about me is that I don’t even know where I’ll end up, and I don’t know what I’ll be doing but I know that I’ll never really stop.
Mika
I'd never compare myself to Freddie Mercury because I look up to him far too much. As an artist, not necessarily as a person.
