Mika
New York is a bit of a dangerous place to me because you often leave in a blur.
Mika
You never know which gig is going to be your last.
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
I was quite the quiet teenager. I was a bit of a loner, a little bit of an outsider.
