More quotes by Mika
Identity for me is something that has to be played with and explored, and not become complacent about or uninterested in.
Mika
I was a show-off as a kid. I was wearing bow ties and matching coloured trousers.
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
A decision once taken brings peace to a man's mind and eases his soul.
Mika
I don't know where my father is from. I just don't. He's lived in so many countries.
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
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
My life isn't tabloid-friendly.
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
My real name is Mica, spelled with a C. My dad is called Michael. He wanted me to be called Michael but my mother said over her dead body. She wasn't into the whole junior thing.
Mika
Strangely, I feel that I become increasingly reclusive in my normal life and more open and candid in my music.
Mika
I was quite the quiet teenager. I was a bit of a loner, a little bit of an outsider.
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.
Mika
You never know which gig is going to be your last.
Mika
I'm fascinated by religion, but I'm not particularly religious.
Mika
The music industry doesn't exist the way it used to. You'll never have another star like the stars of the '90s.
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'm obsessed with plastic. I like the syntheticness.
Mika
New York is a bit of a dangerous place to me because you often leave in a blur.
Mika
My first record was about childhood. There were a lot of nursery rhyme and fairytale references it was all about being naive.
Mika
