- "Grace Kelly" is the second single by the British singer Mika. It is the opening track on Mika's debut studio album Life in Cartoon Motion (2007). Produced and mixed by Greg Wells, the song entered the UK Singles Chart at number three and the UK Official Download Chart at number one. One week later, it jumped to the top of the UK Singles Chart on download sales alone. The track was number one on the UK Singles Chart for five weeks, and ended 2007 as the year's third biggest-selling single in that country. In the US, "Grace Kelly" was made available for digital download on 16 January 2007. This song was also No. 89 on MTV Asia's list of Top 100 Hits of 2007. It was designed to be a mocking satire of musicians who try to reinvent themselves to be popular. The song is titled after Academy Award-winning American film and stage actress, and Princess of Monaco, Grace Kelly. The bit of dialogue used in the song is from the film The Country Girl, which stars Kelly. Mika claims the song was inspired after a bad experience with a record company executive, in which he was told to be more like Craig David. The lyric "So I tried a little Freddie" is a reference to Queen's Freddie Mercury, to whose singing voice Mika's has been compared. On at least one occasion, Mika confirmed that he used the main melody from Figaro's famous aria "Largo al factotum", from the opera The Barber of Seville by Gioachino Rossini. Mika performed the song at the MTV Europe Music Awards 2007 in Munich and at the 2008 BRIT Awards at the Earls Court Exhibition Centre, London, where it was nominated for Best British Single, but lost to "Shine" by Take That. The song has sold over 630,000 copies in the UK, as stated by the Official Charts Company. (en)
- «Grace Kelly» es una canción de Mika editada para la descarga el 9 de enero de 2007. Producida y mezclada por Greg Wells, la canción entró en la UK Singles Chart en el número tres y la UK Official Download Chart en el número 1. Una semana más tarde saltó al número uno, a pesar de que sólo estaba disponible a través de descarga digital y no en formato físico. El tema fue número uno en las listas británicas durante 5 semanas hasta el 18 de febrero de 2007. El propósito era el de burlarse de los músicos que intentan reinventarse a sí mismos para ser más populares. Se titula Grace Kelly, una actriz de películas y teatro ganadora de los Premios Óscar y princesa de Mónaco. Mika dice que la canción le vino después de una mala experiencia con un ejecutivo de una discográfica. La letra "So I tried a little Freddie" se refiere a Freddie Mercury, con cuya voz se le compara. Una vez Mika comentó que usó la melodía principal del aria famoso Largo al factotum de Pierre de Beaumarchais en El barbero de Sevilla de Gioachino Rossini. (es)

- Grace Kelly è il primo singolo del cantante libanese Mika, pubblicato il 29 gennaio 2007, tratto dall'album Life in Cartoon Motion. Il brano ha ottenuto un successo globale, specialmente nel Regno Unito dove è rimasto al primo posto in classifica di vendite per cinque settimane. L'uso virtuosistico del registro di falsetto nella canzone ricorda per alcuni la voce di Freddie Mercury a cui Mika è stato paragonato e che è citato apertamente nel testo della canzone (le parole "So I tried a little Freddie" sono seguite da un breve saggio di sovrincisione vocale di cui Mercury era maestro). Il brano musicale è stato inoltre utilizzato in due episodi della serie televisiva Ugly Betty. Il titolo della canzone si riconduce al personaggio di Grace Kelly, attrice teatrale e cinematografica americana divenuta Principessa di Monaco; il significato della canzone è infatti una bonaria presa in giro ai cantanti che cercano di cambiare stile solo per diventare famosi. Il cantante ha reso noto che ha scritto questa canzone come protesta verso le case discografiche che avevano rifiutato i suoi lavori e gli avevano proposto di crearsi un'immagine a lui non gradita.

- "The comparisons to Freddie Mercury are fine. They started long before I made the record – I've even referred to it in Grace Kelly." "Grace Kelly was written after these musicians were trying to mould me into what I should be. I was really angry and so I wrote the song and mailed them the lyrics. They didn't call me back, but two years later it's come full circle." (en)
