Mika 'Excuses For Love' by Oliver Jennings

Rob Ulitski - 11th Feb 2026

Mika heads back to his own backyard, the endlessly atmospheric Dungeness, in Oliver Jennings wonderfully quirky promo for Excuses For Love. 

The promo follows Mika on a strange journey, onto a small gauge steam railway and highlighting the people, places and kooky of this unique corner of England. When Mika journeys through this world it all mkaes sense - he's at home with its eccentricity as everybody else.  

Guest starring the Bournemouth Youth Marching Band, its a textural, offbeat visual anchored by the singer's charismatic performance and a host of fun visual moments. Another standout entry in MIKA's comeback video run.
