More quotes by Mika
In fact, no one has ever really wanted to go on a date with me.
Mika
A decision once taken brings peace to a man's mind and eases his soul.
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
When you're not part of a club, you have to find another way of surviving.
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
You never know which gig is going to be your last.
Mika
Well, I have to say, most of my clothes are designed and made by my mother.
Mika
I was quite the quiet teenager. I was a bit of a loner, a little bit of an outsider.
Mika
I'm fascinated by religion, but I'm not particularly religious.
Mika
I don't know where my father is from. I just don't. He's lived in so many countries.
Mika
It's [F1] your life. You're focused on just one thing and there's no room for anything else. Friends don't necessarily understand, because the way you think about life develops completely differently to how it does for normal people.
Mika
Most of the people who write pop music were outsiders at some time in their life.
Mika
The stage is my territory, my boxing ring. That's where I'm free.
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 was always told that I was too strange or that I was too cheesy by different groups of people, like the record companies said I was way too weird and the indie people wouldn't even let me in their band.
Mika
I'm not interested in what they have to say. I'm only interested in people that are interested in me for the right reasons.
Mika
I have opinions on everything. I'm a stubborn old mule. The biggest problem is keeping my mouth shut.
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.
Mika
We all have to be dishes on a plate eventually, with the way we are marketed, but I have no intention of being a cheap Chinese all-you-can-eat buffet.
Mika
I certainly don't follow fashion. I think fashion, as far as the industry and the whole world that surrounds it, is quite vile, and I'm repelled by it.
Mika
