More quotes by Mika
You never know which gig is going to be your last.
Mika
I have opinions on everything. I'm a stubborn old mule. The biggest problem is keeping my mouth shut.
Mika
Over the past few days I have been fighting off a virus that has affected the majority of my band and crew.
Mika
I write songs about fat girls and about men who run off to Mexico.
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
I say I have a midlife crisis every time I start and finish a record.
Mika
I was a show-off as a kid. I was wearing bow ties and matching coloured trousers.
Mika
To me, being a classical snob in the highest possible way and being an indie snob is just as bad!
Mika
Identity for me is something that has to be played with and explored, and not become complacent about or uninterested in.
Mika

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
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 born out of classical music.
Mika
When you're not part of a club, you have to find another way of surviving.
Mika
In the stock market, when you are right, you make a little money when you are wrong, you learn a lot of lessons, so you always win!
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 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
My life isn't tabloid-friendly.
Mika
New York is a bit of a dangerous place to me because you often leave in a blur.
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.
