I NEED A MATCH MIKA

7/02/2007

HE may be number one but Mika still needs our help to get a date. We met up with the flamboyant singer at the launch of his hotly-tipped new album, Life In Cartoon Motion

http://images.mirror.co.uk/upl/m3/feb2007/0/9/9BD3DB56-CD1E-F062-DF60E42F864B66C9.jpg
Mika at his album launch PIC: BIGPICTURESPHOTO.COM


And in his only interview, he told us: "I want 3am to run a competition to find me someone to date me.

"I may be getting famous now but no one wants to go out with me. In fact, no one has ever really wanted to go on a date with me."

He added: "I've got no date for Valentine's Day either - it's a bit depressing to be honest."

The camp performer has remained tight-lipped about whether it's ladies or gents he likes but he'll have no shortage of suitors after the T-Mobile Street Gig held in a giant marquee in London's exclusive Berkeley Square.

Kicking off with floor-filler Relax, Take It Easy, he stepped up the pace with Bobby Brown and the Scissor Sisters-esque Big Girl. But it was Grace Kelly that brought the tent down. And all this after council killjoys cancelled his soundcheck because offices complained about the noise. They should Take It Easy themselves...

LIVE! MIKA: London

And Mika shall inherit the earth...
Mika
T-Mobile Street Gig
Big Top , Berkeley Square,
By David Smyth, Evening Standard 06.02.07

http://i.thisislondon.co.uk/i/pix/2007/02/mika2PA_243x296.jpg
Falsetto heaven: showman Mika launched his album in a big top with circus acts and catchy tunes

He has been billed as pop's greatest new showman, so it was only fitting that 23-year-old Mika Penniman should launch his debut album in a specially-erected circus tent.

Currently number one for the fourth week with his first single, Grace Kelly, he looks certain to repeat the feat with his album, Life In Cartoon Motion, and celebrated that fact in the most colourful way possible.

The crowd of competition winners was dotted with transvestites, other pop stars including Sophie Ellis-Bextor and The Feeling, a bearded lady and several people in monkey costumes.

Candy floss, toffee apples, popcorn and balloon hats were all freely distributed. Support acts included various acrobats, carnival dancers in towering head-dresses and three schoolchildren playing Fifties rockabilly.

So when he finally arrived Mika had to work hard to attract the crowd's notice amid all that colour, but attention-seeking seems to be a particular skill.

Skittering showtune Grace Kelly pleaded "Why don't you like me?" over and over. The galloping disco of Love Today saw him insisting "You've got to love, love me" while bouncing up and down like an overjoyed puppy.

Grinning broadly beneath rich black curls, the former member of the Royal Opera chorus sang mostly in a falsetto - not the heartbroken kind employed by Chris Martin or James Blunt, more of a Saturday night squeal.

Classy house tune Relax, Take It Easy opened proceedings at a relatively sedate pace, but later Big Girl (You are Beautiful) fired the mood towards hen-do hysteria.

Two women spilling out of blue corsets flanked the singer and waved their cowboy hats to a rubbery bassline that propelled another certain smash hit.

Mika seemed unprecious about his abilities as a songwriter, always preferring catchiness over any more lasting qualities.

This was music with less depth than an ashtray, the sugary chant of Lollipop in particular proving to be so throwaway, it was possible to move from adoring it to finding it deeply irritating in a matter of minutes.

The odd slow moment dampened the celebratory mood but provided much needed changes of pace. Sparse piano ballad Ring Ring was nearly bleak enough to deflate all the balloons floating around.

A soothing cover of Everybody's Talkin' by Mika's hero Harry Nilsson, another pop eccentric, indicated his likely future.

He will not always be the chart ringmaster he is today, but there were enough intriguing diversions here to prove that he is no clown.

Mika and T-Mobile to Turn London Square Into Circus-Themed Extravaganza

For their first gig of 2007, T-Mobile Street Gigs is presenting a special one-off gig with Mika—one of 2007’s most hotly tipped new artists. The event, which takes place in London's Berkeley Square on February 5, promises to position Mika as a circus ringleader as he performs tracks off his debut album Life in Cartoon Motion.

"Wow, a big top on Berkeley Square to launch my album with T-Mobile Street Gigs," said Mike. "It's going to be quite a night."

Tickets are strictly by invite only. To be in with a chance of getting on the guestlist, music fans must register online between January 24-31 at www.t-mobile.co.uk/streetgigs.

Mika Debut Album Is Circus Act

MIKA is launching his debut album with a flamboyant circus-style gig next week.
The one-off show, in London’s Berkeley Square, is part of T-Mobile’s Street Gigs.

For the February 5 concert, the camp singer will play ringmaster for circus antics. I have VIP tickets to meet Mika for two readers and gig passes for a runner-up.

February 05, 2007 — Mika at HMV, Oxford Street for the release of Life In Cartoon Motion

February 06
Mika Live at HMV Oxford Street, London
I went to see Mika perform live yesterday at HMV Oxford Street, London at 6pm. He sang 3 of his tracks from his new album "Life In Cartoon Motion" including the number hit "Grace Kelly". He was fanatasic and also over whelmed that also managed to reach the top of the charts too... awww bless him!

It was a shame that the signing of his new album was cancelled afterwards as he had to rush off somewhere else so i didn't managed to get mine signed that i brought. But he did apologized to the audiance and said he will be doing a another signing soon. I just hope that he returns back to HMV again so i can get my album signed. I've listened to his album and it is just fanatasic!

But it was still great and i caught the performance on my camera video. I will try to upload it online soon.
