Mika: Life in Cartoon Motion

The soundtrack to my first year of independence, living slap bang in the centre of London and, in a rather bewildering fashion, actually working.  I think I saw Mika featured on the breakfast news and bought the album on the back of that.  Then I just played it over and over. It was one of the few times I’d listened to an album before any of my friends.  It was pop on a sugar-high, lively, exuberant, boosting my sense of excitement at life in general. Great ironing music.
