ReganFeb 4, 2008Grace Kelly hooked me in although it took a few listens for the others to sink in. Now I love the whole CD - it's feel-good, nightclub, dance dance dance fun. Can't wait to see where Mika goes from here.

JaredC.Nov 2, 2007Jumpy, catchy, and certainly an album to dance to. Mika shows us a new version of family jazz, and it will get you hooked.

GuidoS.Sep 14, 2007Fantastic. Has the guts to experiment and serve us with round sounds. Fun. Invites to enjoy life without caring much for heavy adultness. Hope he has the mind and soul to keep going and creating more albums.

TimothyA.Jul 11, 2007Innovative, witty, and a great voice. Reminds me of Mr Mercury in places.

StrepsiB.Jul 8, 2007Excellent pop, true a couple boring bits, but that's far more killer and less filler than most. One of the few albums I play and do NOT shuffle. The album of summer 2007

iieeeDaviesApr 18, 2007Genius! Freddie Mercury is smiling in his grave! Mika is a world wonder, i feel sorry for anyone who doesn't get it. have a glass a wine, strip down to as little clothes possible for comfort (try totally naked) and dance around your living room to it! :) ...i'm shocked if you don't love it then!?

PondCApr 17, 2007Variety of voices from this young man, makes me feel like a combination of Robbie Williams, Freddy Mercury, Scissor Sister could be able to create an admired modern contempory Pop Songs

rollegApr 2, 2007A strange, campy and sometimes fun record. A strange mix (and inspirations) of Queen, Freddy Mercury, Cure and so many other influences... I sometimes hate mysely for liking many of the tracks, but I guess, that is the point!

vasilisApr 2, 2007how critics can be so stupid? shame on you drowned in sound... or should i say drowned in daftness?

There’s some great stuff here – specifically Relax, Take It Easy’s sublime falsetto hook - but elsewhere buoyant pop is sunk by relentless vocal mugging and production which wears its influences much too heavily.
-
That it doesn't dissolve into kitsch and comedy is a tribute to Mika's gifts. [Apr 2007, p.118]
-
The suspicion that Mika might have major talent under the plagiarism and cynicism is what makes "Life In Cartoon Motion" so remarkably unlovely.
