It's been three years since Mika's last album (and five years since the singer burst onto the pop stratosphere with 2007 hits "Grace Kelly," "Big Girl (You Are Beautiful)" and "Stuck in the Middle") and now he's back with his third LP, The Origin of Love, out October 16th. The first single off the new record, "Celebrate," features vocals by Pharrell and production by Nick Littlemore from Empire of the Sun. The new music video stays true to the song's name and features lots of special occasions -- a birthday surprise, a homecoming, an engagement -- while Mika suffers from what looks to be an excruciating case of writer's block in a fancy loft ostensibly in Brooklyn. Watch the video above.
