Here at Unreality Music, Mika is our favourite Lebanese-born, of-questionable-sexuality singer. But this song wasn’t an instant hit with us. However, like all the best songs in pop history, we’re pleased to tell you that Happy Ending is a grower!

Taken from Life In Cartoon Motion, the song is noticeably downbeat compared to Mika’s other tunes, but he manages to inject a solemn beauty to the track that you might not expect from the otherwise bouncy singer.

As the peeps over at BuzzSugar say:

Oh, MIKA. Even when you’re sad you make me happy. How does that happen? “Happy Ending” isn’t an altogether happy song, but watching MIKA’s new video for it brings tears of joy to my eyes.

And that’s the main point - Mika isn’t some one-dimensional artist. He’s crafted a ballad that hits the spot emotionally, yet he’s refused to pander to pop love song convention. I think we’ve said it before on this blog, but Mika is thankfully one of the most innovative artists in our charts today.

The video’s a trippy number, amazing in some places and just too weird in others. Check it out and let me know what you think…
