More quotes by 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
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'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

Mika
I write songs about fat girls and about men who run off to Mexico.
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
Oh, I'm quite harmless in real life.
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
My relationship with my mother is not cute.
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 have opinions on everything. I'm a stubborn old mule. The biggest problem is keeping my mouth shut.
Mika
My first record was about childhood. There were a lot of nursery rhyme and fairytale references it was all about being naive.
Mika
I'm obsessed with plastic. I like the syntheticness.
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!
