More quotes by Mika

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
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'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

Mika
