Editorial Review: Amazon.co.uk Review: The pop world might be all cooing 'n' cross-eyed over this flamboyant elfin with extended tail-feathers, as if it were shaken suddenly from a slumber, but the arrival of such a character was in fact always inevitable. He's an unlikely but traceable amalgamation of random pop culture explosions from the past few years--two parts Paulo Nutini, one part Kemal from Big Brother, a dash of Daphne & Celeste, a barrel measure of Scissor Sisters, and another pinch of post-ironic dancing to Elton John at the Students' Union gone midnight. It's no secret that the UK has a weakness for pretty-boy singer songwriters either--he fits in there too, in that he's about to stick its index finger in the socket and pour it a drink. Give it 12 months and you might be taking out a restraining order--Mika will split opinion--but his quasi-soul falsetto is unbelievable, that much is immediately obvious. There are moments nearing syrupy Feeling-esque normalcy (take "My Interpretation"), but those aside it’s high camp insatiability all the way. There’s a hint of Freddie Mercury’s theatricality in the voice, and in "Big Girl" he's even written a modern day "Fat Bottomed Girls". "Lollipop" is Jake Shears leading the Jackson 5, "Love Today" is the missing link between the Bee Gees and Village People and "Relax, Take It Easy" is a chilled Pet Shop Boys in gold lamé. Too cheesy to be a classic, perhaps, but this is just the brand of subversive eccentricity Robbie has failed miserably to achieve over his past few albums. --James Berry Average Rating:
 Rating:  - If I could afford a hitman to take out Mika I would!Don't by this each song reaches new lows in what can in the loosest possible terms be called music Rating:  - Uplifting 'cheesy' MIKAi really loved this album was fighting whether or not to buy but what pushed me towards buying was that he had one some brit awards and i was not disappointed i'm def glad i did purchase the album! it is very uplifting cheesy (in a good way) great album to listen to on your way back from a day in the office! i loved it and would recommend to anyone! Rating: - The star of 2007................... MIKA!!!!!2007 belonged to one man, and that man is Mika. In January 2007, he scored his first #1 single with Grace Kelly, which remained there for 5 weeks. This was followed by a #1 album, Life In Cartoon Motion, and four more Top 20 singles; Love Today (#6), Big Girl [You Are Beautiful] (#9), Happy Ending (#7) and Relax [Take It Easy]/Lollipop (#18). There are many fabulous songs on the album, ranging from upbeat songs like Grace Kelly and Lollipop, to mid-tempo marvels like My Interpretation ...

A Scissor sister'esk and unique style that will be hard for any other artists to try an emulate if they wish to compete with this superstar without looking like a complete rip off..... I didn't intend to inject Mika into my life quite as much as I am doing at the moment but he is certainly going to stay in my playlist for a ... Read More: Rating: - It just keeps getting better.I bought to cd's the other day, this and keiser chiefs. I thought that KC would be the one we would listen to all the time. what a mistake, this album is FANTASTIC, we love all the songs, none of them are boring, and part of the fun is working out who he has taken inspiration from when he wrote the songs and then sung them. Truly entertaining and hopefully he will keep going and not be a one album wonder. Buy it now. |
