Golden boy of celebratory wonky pop Mika turns balladier on release of piano driven epic “Underwater”.
Replete with whimsical story telling video Mika goes in at the Depp end of smouldering seafaring pin-ups in a water world fantasy that’s pleasingly calming and shiny with just a perfect glint of shimmer on it to tingle our timbers.
Mika looks quite pleased with himself doesn't he? Undone shoe laces and all...
Seems our eternal youngster of pop has been quite busy making two new music videos then and you can watch them both right here. "Blame It On The Girls" is the new US and Japanese single whilst "Rain" looks like it's being marketed towards Europe with it's electronic backbeat and Erasure-esqe crescendo.
Leave it to Mika - only he can make videos with woodland nypmhs and fireworks look cool...
It's Saturday Morning EQs and the sun is shining here in Londontown - probably because the sounds of Mika are all over the airwaves and in the earbuds.
Team Mika wanted to let you in on some exclusive video and sent us these nice little streaming links for you to enjoy. In these videos, Mika talks about the concept of his new album "The Boy Who Knew Too Much" and where he drew inspiration from whilst trying to conjure up something different for his sophomore album.
Did you know that Mika wrote a song about stalking on the new album? Ohhh - how dark...
