I first heard of Mika in Feb 2007...a year ago. I was kinda depressed so I just switched on the tv and started flipping through some music channels. First I listened to VH1 for a while, because they had this song that I completely love..then the next song sucked, and it was the same for all the other channels. I rarely ever watch MTV, but just because there was nothing else, I got to it, and it was some count down show..oh yeah...the Euro top 20. When I got to MTV, it was the 2nd top song, and it was Avril's "Girlfriend", which I HATE, and I was about to turn off the tv. But luckily, fate intervened, and my mom called me downstairs. After 2 minutes, I made my way back upstairs and "Girlfriend" was just about to end. I was anxious to see who was number 1, so I continued watching. And thank god for that.
The number 1 song was.....you guessed it!! "Grace Kelly"!!!
The first thing that caught my attention was Mika. I have never seen anyone who reminded me of myself as much as he does!! So first it was him, and then the song started. The moment the song started, my life changed forever. I was in such a state of amazement, I couldn't believe my eyes or my ears!! I've never ever heard anything like him before, and I've never ever seen anyone like him before, AND I've never ever been sooo addicted to someone as much as I am with him before!!! The moment the song ended, I RAN to the computer, opened up itunes, typed in his name (which I LOVED!!), and all his available songs came up and I downloaded each and every single one. Ever since then, life suddenly got soooo much better!! Love you, Mika!
As for the MFC, I never actually knew it existed until after my first Mika gig, which explains why I was 9 months late here!
