Mika
Strangely, I feel that I become increasingly reclusive in my normal life and more open and candid in my music.
Mika
Melody is disarming. It's anarchic!
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 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
