Then let`s speak about Mika! I like him immensely, his songs are very good, practically all of them. And his last album is fantastic. Especially the song RAIN! I like the video too! Who likes him! What do you think of him?

I think he's a talented guy. His music is creative, uplifting and very diverse... And it annoys the hell out of me. Too hysterical for my taste.

That's what I think too!  I really enjoy it!  :)  I should pick up one of his albums, I think it would be good driving music!

Thanx Judy! I love the songs! You should definitely listen to the last album too!
Rain is very good. It is very popular now.

Yes, Alexis! When Mika emerged he was compared to Freddie Mercury. And, imagine that, when Queen toured with Paul Rodgers, many said Queen should have hired Mika instead of Paul to tour with them and to sing like Freddie did.

He's really hot. I liked his first album a lot, but I found it got old for me after a while. Grace kelly still gets a listen once in a while though

Mairi, sorry to burst your bubble again...  (I think you get what I mean).

By the sounds of it I should really pick up at least one of his albums!  His sound is definitely one that hadn't been heard for a long while, sort of refreshing!

Haha, yeah, I heard about that.

But his new album, I've been hearing good things about it. and I do think he has a good pop sensibility, when he tones down the camp just a wee bit.

Agree completely. Too too much novelty with his vocal hijinx and coloured trousers. No offence, but it strikes me as music for a 13 year olds birthday party.

I like mika. His music is very uplifting and energetic without being too much in your face. I cant say I have alot of his stuff but lets jus say a few tracks I listen to when I go running.
