More quotes by 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
The music industry doesn't exist the way it used to. You'll never have another star like the stars of the '90s.
Mika
My real name is Mica, spelled with a C. My dad is called Michael. He wanted me to be called Michael but my mother said over her dead body. She wasn't into the whole junior thing.
Mika
My relationship with my mother is not cute.
Mika
My life isn't tabloid-friendly.
Mika
A stylist might say you look amazing in anything. Your family will always tell you if you look a complete idiot.
Mika
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
Well, I have to say, most of my clothes are designed and made by my mother.
Mika

Mika
The stage is my territory, my boxing ring. That's where I'm free.
Mika
I'm inspired by watching and listening to people. For example, my first novel, The Scale, came to life after I overheard two women discussing their struggle with their weight at the gym.
Mika
I write songs about fat girls and about men who run off to Mexico.
Mika
I wish I had more guts when I was younger because then I would've said things to people's faces instead of just running away all the time.
Mika
I've always said in the press, I can fall in love with a man. I can fall in love with a woman. And I've always said that I have no shame in that.
Mika
Identity for me is something that has to be played with and explored, and not become complacent about or uninterested in.
Mika
I can't just listen to music walking down the street unless I have a reason to. I can't just listen to music as a piece of junk in the background. It drives me insane.
Mika
Melody is disarming. It's anarchic!
Mika
No one knows what I am and really, I wonder if I do, at the end of the day.
Mika
I don't know where my father is from. I just don't. He's lived in so many countries.
Mika
I say I have a midlife crisis every time I start and finish a record.
Mika
