I can indeed. Like you, and most of the male population, I'm straight. That said, I have gay friends, and I'm particularly protective of their rights, which are so often abused by society. I had not heard of the bashing in question, and it's definitely not cool. I hope the people responsible not only get charged with murder, but also hate crimes.
Mika is a fantastic artisté, who unfortunately has been labelled and bashed continously because of his sexuality, something which really ires me. I couldn't care less about his sexuality, but I do care about his rights, and I find it sad that people will bash his music only because of his sexuality, and not because of the actual musical quality.
If you get the chance, get both of his live DVDs - he's a wonderful performer and I can't wait to see him live when he tours in Australia. His music isn't to everyone's taste, granted. Check out his other videos from his first album on youtube - they're all artistically very cool imho, and a great deal of fun.
