OtisDriftwoodAug 3, 2007really really bland. it actually made me wince at parts too from his annoying falsetto voice. It's also very overproduced.

MandelwebMar 29, 2007One of the best albums of the year so far...and one of the strongest debuts I've heard. If you like catchy, giddy pop, get this album now!

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

JeremyFApr 19, 2007shame on him. this album is... ahhh... just a musical disgrace.
-
-
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!

bobbykApr 22, 2007Yes, you look great in those tight pants. So put your best foot forward and model and spare my ears.

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

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.
-
-
DinoMDec 4, 2007"Grace Kelly" drew me in the the second track "Lollipop" drew me out. Other than "Relax" and the Mercury-rip "Big Girl", this album is the definition of mediocre. Disappointing.
-
-
WillF.Mar 28, 2007Awesomely catchy pop. In a time when it seems a good pop song is hard to find, Mika brings with him fun, accolade gems.

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!?

KikiDMay 12, 2007twaddle. utter twaddle. cutesy cutesy ironi-pop. bleah. makes the scisssor sisters sound like cheap trick. terrible.

jubaJun 24, 2007Great, fun, summer rock out CD. Perfect for driving and singing!

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.

Dec 19, 2016It's a pleasure to hear an artist have real fun. It's a little quirky for the sake of being quirky, but it's well sang and interesting. Some of the production is a little tinny and bland, but it's hard to truly hate this album.

-
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.
