FOR ALL THE LATEST MIKA NEWS AND EXCLUSIVES, SIGN UP TO THE SECRET SOCIETY ON MIKASOUNDS.COM

I was born in lebanon and rasied in Paris and London, hopping from country to country like a footloose hippy with my four brothers and sisters.

Coming from different background to most I found no place at school and delved into music from an early age. I started writing songs as a kid, not because of grand ambitions but because it was an easy way to tell a story, a joke and often the truth. Tell the truth in a song and people are less pissed off than if you were to say it to their face.

I sent out my stories to anyone and everyone, not surprisingly I often got no reply. The further I got into music the more attention I was getting for my own song writing, I made a choice last year and decided to go for it.

'Life In Cartoon Motion' is my first record. It has a coming of age theme, and deals with my transition from childhood to now. What's my sound? I guess it's in the writing. I apologise in advance to the people whos stories and characters I have borrowed from. Remember, It's only a caricature.

Ingie	Jul 27 2008 1:01 AM Mika, because I will be gone today and I made this a habit now, I'd like to wish you good luck in Beirut tonight! I'm sure it means the world to you and hopefully everything will go alright, but I'm positive of that! It's sad that this is the last gig of this summer already, I really enjoyed seeing you again in Amsterdam and reading all the reports and watch the pics of the other gigs, but now I'll patiently have to wait for the second album :D Thank you Mika for making this summer unforgettable and rock Beirut tonight! Love, Ingie
Mana	Jul 26 2008 10:07 PM MIKA, I love the blogs/pics/video blogs. They've been so much better than I ever would've dared to hope! So a truly heartfelt thank you. It's also great that you're sharing with us a little bit of what you're into these days, like the art of David Batchelor and John Dahlsen. Plastics - how cool is that? Toi toi toi for the Beirut gig - you know we want to hear all about it! (And we're still waiting for that Dead Sea mud experience video blog...) ;)

(i try in your new page too) i don't know.. every video or pic that you put make me feel that we are cutted by the same scissors... I am without knowledge that means " gig" … but oks… I hope that someday you will try to explain to me. xoxo

rose	Jul 26 2008 3:25 PM hi mika, yesterday i was too tired to continue my fairy tale, but here it goes on. the little fairy had a long way through dark and eerie woods full of weird animals and plants she's never seen before. finally she arrived at the woodwitch who was more scary than everything she has ever seen before in her life. she didn't dare to watch the woodwitches white eyes. the woodwitch asked with a grating voice: "why are you here? this is no place for little fairies. you came from a place like heaven, but this is the hell." the little fairy shuddered and wanted to leave immediately, but then she felt her soft soap bubble with the prince's face and thought of her love, so that she answered: "i need your help." the witch laughed and this laugh was the most scary thing the little fairy every heard. "are you sure?" the witch asked. the fairy wrestled with herself, then she said: "yes, i am. i love a human prince..." the woodwitch interrupted her: "i already know, silly fairy. well, let's get into my dark cave, if you dare. i'm gonna tell you what to do." to be continued next time. sending some sweet good night kisses dear! love, rose :)

Aurélia	Jul 26 2008 3:00 PM Hi everyone! I hope you are fine and ready to come back in France on tomorrow! I am joking of course...I did just want to know if we will have a DVD from your concert in the Parc des Princes. I would be so happy to have one because I loved this show of course but too because the battery of my numerical camera was low end completly empty before the end! I am starting to tell my non-interessant life so I stop know (laugh). See you soon I am with all of you! Love and Kisses.

Marianne - Cartoonist loves masks and supermen	Jul 26 2008 1:37 PM MIKA - you have more friends and more comments on MySpace than anyone I know! Everyone who has ever mocked you should be ashamed of themselves. I really mean it: you've gone so far in your life and this is just the beginning. I've been mocked too for just being different but I've learned never to give in. Some of my wisdom I have gotten from you, for you are my true HERO! Ok, time to go onto your website to catch up. Working really disturbs my spare time! ;) See ya! Marianne! x
