George Michael Pictures

(FILES) This file picture taken on July 27, 2008 at Martyr's Square in Beirut shows English-Lebanese singer Mika performing at a concert. After the success of "Life in Cartoon Motion," which sold five million copies worldwide, Mika released a second album on September 11, 2009, inspired by his adolescence and 1980s pop -- "The Boy Who Knew Too Much." Throughout the album, the artist brings to mind Freddie Mercury, George Michael and Jimmy Sommerville, but it is the British production trio Stock, Aitken and Waterman who are most strongly evoked.
