Mika


It's been out a few months, but I still want to say that Mika's "Grace Kelly" is the best single I've heard in a long while--definitely the best since Kelly Clarkson's "Since You've Been Gone," and probably better. I've got no quarrel with his devotion to Freddie Mercury. His voice just keeps going up, and when you think it's reached the top it goes up more. If you haven't heard it, you ought to. Try here.

my heart skipped a proud little beat when i read you namedrop that much-loved-by-me kelly clarkson song! but also: mika is confusing, in a good way. kelly clarkson doesn't really make me form any questions.

Yeah, you're right; they're different animals. However, they do both please me greatly in that pop-o-matic sort of way.
