“When I was 14, people started to call me a ‘fag’ and I thought that if I was going to write insults to people who were mean to me, I was going to do it in a pop song because then it’d be stuck in their head – writing songs was all about empowerment.”

– Grammy nominated singer-songwriter Mika, whose critically-acclaimed new album is entitled The Boy Who Knew Too Much.
