More quotes by Mika

Mika
Most of the people who write pop music were outsiders at some time in their life.
Mika
You never know which gig is going to be your last.
Mika
To me, being a classical snob in the highest possible way and being an indie snob is just as bad!
Mika

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
The music industry doesn't exist the way it used to. You'll never have another star like the stars of the '90s.
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
A stylist might say you look amazing in anything. Your family will always tell you if you look a complete idiot.
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
