Similar style to Kiss of Death I guess, powerful, haunting, emotional....

Would totally recommend tracks like Eien no Uta and Ichiban Kirei na Watashi wo (Reggae Disco Rockers Remix) as well. MIKA has done the typical rock/pop/ballad stuff, but she's also among my favorite Japanese reggae singers. I can't stand the genre apart from its rhythm, but MIKA really nails this style.
For yet something also radically different in MIKA's discography: Songs like LEGEND, Oborozukiyo ~Inori, Kumo no Ito, and Birukaze Swimming School show off MIKA's extremely melodic and experiential style. Every now and then, a MIKA track comes out that isn't a rock/pop/ballad/funk/reggae song -- it's a unique, cinematic, almost surreal experience that fully transports you into space for a few minutes. These are all more poignantly produced, carefully constructed songs that really do something unique for a major label artist's releases.
