Forgive me if this has already been posted somewhere, but I heard it a while ago and was reminded of it by the thread about Bodies Without Organs. The tracklisting is still up on the 6Music site and it's fascinating reading - brilliant for prompting little forays into music you haven't tried before. Plus any list that includes the wondrous '1941' by Harry Nilsson is a good thing in my book! FRIDAY 2nd February - Mika and Eric Prydz Mika's Mix Iko Iko - The Dixie Cups Fidelity - Regina Speckor David - Nellie McKay Loser - Beck Grace Kelly Linus Loves Remix - Mika Prelude and Fugue in C Minor - Glenn Gould Trains to Brazil - Guillemots This Song Has No Title - Elton John Me and Bobby McGee - Janis Joplin Don't Wait Too Long - Madeleine Peyroux Vover - Estrella Morente 1941 - Harry Nillson Welcome to the Black Parade (Radio Edit) - My Chemical Romance Prelude And Fugue in C Minor - Glenn Gould Fleetwood Mac - The Green Manalishi Love Today - Mika

Isn't it cool how the press now seem to be catching on to the fact that practically everyone who's ever heard Grace Kelly knows the whole backstory off by heart? What with that delectable 'life in two minutes' film for Channel 4, and now this one, you've gotta love their creativity!

Dearie me. Being that adorable in public just isn't right.

Hey everyone, I think I've found my spiritual home... I'm a student and gotta say thanks to this site for brightening up some hellish evenings of essay-writing lately - along with LICM on repeat, naturally. 'Tis nice to finally get some time to write something, seeing as lurking just started to feel a lil bit creepy after a while! How I first discovered Mika is kind of hard to say - you know when, looking back, it all just turns into a big blur of snatches of Grace Kelly on lots of different radio stations, various YouTube clips and bits and pieces in magazines, and you don't really remember the order? Ah well, been a huge fan for a while anyway, and off to Brum on May 17th which I get all excited about at unexpected moments.
