Love Queen, love this song

I've been realizing lately that I like Queen. A lot. I don't know why I didn't realize that the same band played all of my favorites, but anyway... I was intrigued by this Ask Metafilter question: "[Who plays the] alt-rock song... [that] sounds like I imagine Queen might sound if they were just starting out today?" One of the responders hit the nail on the head (the title of this post is a link to the YouTube video).

Inessa, have you ever heard of Mika? They seem quirky enough but maybe too perky for you. I haven't tried any of their other songs yet, but I love this.

I like Queen fine. I'd heard of Mika but never listened to his music until I watched the video you posted. Mika is all right; I'm not quite sure I get the fuss about him. Maybe "Grace Kelly" isn't his catchiest song. Was there even an actual answer to the question?
