More quotes by Mika
My life isn't tabloid-friendly.
Mika
To me, being a classical snob in the highest possible way and being an indie snob is just as bad!
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
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
A stylist might say you look amazing in anything. Your family will always tell you if you look a complete idiot.
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
Over the past few days I have been fighting off a virus that has affected the majority of my band and crew.
Mika
I was a show-off as a kid. I was wearing bow ties and matching coloured trousers.
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
Zen is just a lifestyle, your everyday life. It is doing your best at your job, relationships, health, hobbies, and other daily activities!
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
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
My relationship with my mother is not cute.
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 say I have a midlife crisis every time I start and finish a record.
Mika
New York is a bit of a dangerous place to me because you often leave in a blur.
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 don't know where my father is from. I just don't. He's lived in so many countries.
Mika
