Mika

Went to see Mika tonight at the Orpheum in Boston. Mika is a performance artist. He's a singer-song writer from Europe, very disco-pop and funk infused sound. very fun, very emotional. NOT CHILL. but inspires the same kind of feeling you might get from Sounds from the Ground or Thievery Corporation. Its organic in the sense that its such a natural feeling, and Mika's songs - about lovin' "big girls" and livin' life and not worryin about the love you long for, are so real and yet not tacky - fun songs that make sense, love songs that arent' so damn sappy.
