Hi - the file is here (temporary store) so will leave it here for people to download.. will leave it there until its uploaded here.

Sorry for the large size (15.4mb zip file) I'll try to re-record at lower quality at the weekend.

Just spotted this!

I think of all his interviews this one is my favourite - I guess it's because I was there when it was filmed

So this totally makes up for my Sky + chopping off the end, I emails Clare at the BBC and she was going to send me a copy anyway

For all those that weren't there... or missed the show!! Enjoy!

I posted the story from yesterday in my Blog

Haha, just read your blog... I was stood (on my lonesome) just behind you and your group....very animated and high spirited. I very much enjoyed your sing along

Lucky you for managing to blag your way in to the T Mobile gig.. am so jealous!! I wish had thought of popping down to try my luck! If anyone needs a buddy to try gatecrash gigs with.. I'm there!

The best I could do was to dash to the other side exit of HMV only just in time to see Mika's van speed off into the night! (I think I saw his legs when the doors opened to let someone else in) I then stropped off home in a bad mood.. but not for long... who could stay mad at MIKA?

Thanks to everyone for their pics of HMV... makes up for being vertically challenged!!

Countdown to KOKO.... 15 days!!!!!

Wow! Those are some great photos...! Thanks for posting them

It looks like it was quite intimate! Would have loved to have been there!! You lucky lucky person!

So different from the HMV gig (if you can call it that) a few hours earlier

Our very own Jemmalee went to the T mobile gig as an invited guest! So keep a look out for her report later today

Sooooo jealous!!!.. but will be at KOKO so that will be enough for me

Great Pictures Michael! Thanks... I got the tops of peoples heads and other cameras in my shots.. cos I'm so little! I waited so long.. my feet where getting cramp!

Looks like the rollercoaster ride of fame has truely kicked off for our Mika...lets hope he doesn't burn himself out!

Did anyone go to the T Mobile Street Gig? I'd love to hear how that went

I've just come home from HMV Mika was only on for around 20 minutes and there wasn't time for any signings at all. He only played 3 tracks! I guess it's because tonight is also the T Mobile Street Gig.

After queueing at the side of HMV since 4:15pm (around 10th in the queue)the security guards came and told us we could go inside...when we were let in there were already 20 - 30 people at the front of the stage HMV were so disorganised! I asked 3 different people in store and each one had a different answer!

I overheard someone say that they had to cancel signings because there were no wristbands, therefore no idea who was there first etc. I even tried to run out to the side entrance of HMV where his van was waiting.. but I was too late.. he was already in the van and they sped off!!

It was still great to hear and see him though (even though I always seem to get stuck behind people taller than me) and I managed to get some photos and a clip of My Interpretation (but many with the tops of peoples heads and other cameras and phones.

I am so grateful that I was at the Culture Show shoot , it was so much more intimate (and I got a photo with MIKA that I will treasure forever!) and am kicking myself for not getting down to FOPP last week when I could have. Waaa.. next mission... try to get tickets for KOKO or Brighton. I did meet some nice Secret Society people though

Mika did say that he would be back for signings another time though.. so fingers crossed it will be a better organised event!!

I still love you MIKA!!! Now its time to stick the CD in and see what else is on it

I've recorded the interview and converted to MP3 for anyone that can't access the BBC player. I had trouble uploading it so have sent it to Sunny to get it uploaded!!

Yay Mika! I hope 'Life in Cartoon Motion' tops the album charts too! Has everyone got theirs?!

OK - slightly worried now Couldn't sleep last night! I was still annoyed that my Sky + cut off my recording of the Culture Show! (You just can't trust technology!)

If anyone has a great recording and can send me a tape or dvd or even just upload the MIKA bit at the end that would be fabulous My intention was to upload it for you all, but I can't do that now!

So I am now very sleepy and grumpy... but I know that seeing Mika later today at HMV will totally cheer me up!

Can anyone help?!!

Brilliant!! Thanks so much! You don't have the Culture Show do you? I would have converted and uploaded but my Sky + chopped a bit off at the end

Great Work!

Arrrgh! Stupid Sky + chopped off the last bit of Mika's performance - I am sooooo annoyed!!.. if anyone has the Culture Show recorded and can send me a copy?? :'( I was going to convert Mika's Interview and performance and upload it!

Guilty!!!!....I'm completely besotted..

The other night, I couldn't sleep!! Images of Mika and his music filled my head!! I was thinking about the BBC Culture Show shoot... how lovely he was! He is so gorgeous!! I thought I was well beyond teenage crush.. but this is what it feels like!

Mika was on BBC Radio 2 this afternoon with Jonathan Ross this afternoon at around 12:15pm

If you missed it you can hear it here http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio2/shows/ross/

(Skip to around 2 hours 10mins)

He perfoms Love Today with his guitarist - which was fabulous!

He also says he's actually nearly 6'4"!

Cool! I was sitting literally a few feet away while this filmed this (just behind the cameraman)!!! I nearly fell off my seat! If you notice the left (his right) string on his hoodie is tucked in... that's the the one that got dipped in his orange juice!!... it was the cutest thing!

Hello - I've been a Mika fan since I heard Grace Kelly on the radio in early January... ever since then I have been obsessed... I feel like a teenager again! It's so ridiculous! I needed to say hello because no one else seems to understand my obsession!! So I need to share this with you lovely people!

I was looking on this fabulous Fan Club site (it really is great!) for hints on where he might be and I managed to get on the guest list for the BBC Culture Show shoot.. for those that were also there, I was the shorter chinese girl (the other was my fabulous sister who I have managed to convert to a Mika fan!). Sorry if we didnt really talk to many fan clubbers, we were both kinda star struck and excited!

We had a great morning and Mika was amazing.. we were lucky enough to be at the back of the bar when he first came in and sat just a few feet away from them filming a quick video bites interview. The most cutest thing happened just before this interview - the string from his hoodie fell into his glass of orange juice.. he giggled.. whoops, he kinda looked around before sticking it into his mouth to suck off the juice before someone came over with a napkin and dried it off before he tucked it into his hoodie! It was just the cutest thing... I could not move!! (until Ben from the BBC 'placed' us into shot (its strange being a prop!)).

I managed to grab my camera and took a lovely photo before he left!

I absolutely love his music - I am always open to new talent and new sounds and his is fresh and exciting! His music has been making me smile every day! He is absolutely amazing live and can't wait to hear him perform some of his other songs... (I could have gone to Fopp but didn't and am now very upset with myself!!)

It's great that he is trying to keep all his gigs intimate and not go mad in huge venues - I feel so privilidged to have been at the BBC shoot, so I want to say a huge thank you to this forum!! I can't wait for it to air tomorrow!!!

I'll probably make it to the HMV gig on Monday - so I hope to see lots of you there. What time does anyone suggest getting there?
