A. Clay Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 (edited) YO, MIKA-LOOK WHAT I FOUND IN MY LOCAL NEWSPAPER: THE WASHINGTON POST! CD review of Mika's '‘The Boy Who Knew Too Much' Tuesday, January 5, 2010 MIKA THE BOY WHO KNEW TOO MUCH Without a hit single in the United States it's hard to make a big splash in pop music. But no pop album in 2009 sounded better, start to finish, without a true hit single, than Mika's "The Boy Who Knew Too Much," the follow-up to his 2007 debut, "Life in Cartoon Motion." With a sound that brings to mind some wild amalgamation of Rufus Wainwright, Elton John and Electric Six, Mika managed to be both out there and entirely accessible at once. The nonstop hooks and joyous beats pulled you in and the smart wordplay kept your attention throughout. Mika is also a bit of a style hog. He channels his inner Kate Bush on the dreamy "By the Time,"visits campy torch territory with "Pick Up Off the Floor" and delivers his Broadway show tune best on "Toy Boy." Yes, it's all a bit over the top, but it's also magical. If Mika's music were simply pure pop pep, that would be enough. But each song tells a story, amuses, amazes and confidently makes its point. "He's got looks that books take pages to tell/He's got a face to make you fall on your knees," the 26-year-old Londoner sings on "Blame It on the Girls," a bedazzling, boisterous track that somehow chastises ingrates and celebrates life all at once. The song is typical of Mika's fare: exuberant but also layered; candy-coated but also loaded with meaning. Few modern pop stars have achieved anything close. -- Joe Heim Recommended tracks "We Are Golden," "Blue Eyes," "Blame It on the Girls" Edited January 6, 2010 by A.

LoveLoveMika!!!! <3 Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 Hey Mika, Just want to say a huge thank you really. You're amazing, and I doubt I'd be able to cope without your music. Saw you at the Bestival, and you were so good. In actual fact, because I was so hyped about seeing you I now have tickets to your Brighton gig on 3rd March. It's gonna be great and I'm really hoping I'll be able to talk to you! Loved your radio show on New Year's eve too...was really awesome So I hope you had a really great Christmas and New Year, and just don't stop what you do, because you're so good at it!!!!! I really do love everything about you...you're just the best Love and best wishes...Emma Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
