    His voice is so annoying and high. I don’t understand why he is getting talked about. This album is horrible.

    I walked into a restaurant today and “Love Today” off this album was auto-playing on the jukebox. Ordinarily I don’t pay much attention to jukeboxes, but this song is pretty hard to ignore. Sensing a Rickroll opportunity that was also a win for the audience, I put a hard-earned 50 cents into the jukebox and fired up “Never Gonna Give You Up” by Rick Astley. Normally the first few notes of this are all that’s needed to rile up an angry mob, but in this case after having been prepped by Mika they were really into it. That pretty much sums up how bad this song is, buyer beware.

    I heard good things about this CD, and I liked the single “Grace Kelly”. So, I decided to purchase the CD. When I listened to it I was very disappointed. The songs on it are weird, to say the least, and not in a good way. He is a self-admitted Freddy Mercury rip-off, and a VERY BAD one in my opinion.

    Wow, where do I start? First off, the Scissor Sisters is one of my favorite bands, and I feel like Mika is blatantly ripping them off, but has far less skills than they do. His voice is so shrill and high-pitched it gets hard to listen to, and musically, I just can’t find many interesting things about his music. But that is after hearing the Scissor Sisters. If you like Mika, be SURE to check them out!!!

    After a while, I actually start thinking it’s Miss Piggy singing – if you own this CD, listen to it and you’ll see!!! The song where he keeps repeating “Love me, love me” I always hear “Kermie, Kermie” Sorry, this is probably rude, and I’m sure many people disagree with me, but I can’t stand this CD. It makes me want to kick my stereo in. If you value your electronics and don’t want to kick them in in a panic-induced rage, then don’t buy this CD!

    Although Mika’s ‘Life in Cartoon Motion’ has a poppy upbeat feel to it, i found the songs very unoriginal and musicallly dull, the chord sequences in all of the songs stay in the same area, without moving to make the song even remotely interseting. I feel that Mika has stolen the singing stlye of Freddie Mercury but in his performance does not give the ‘Queen’ frontman justice as Fredie pulled his performances off with some style and made singing at ridiculously high pitches for males, sound socially acceptable. Mika, however, in my opinion, just needs to loosen his trousers and his so called ‘talent’ will disappear as quickly as water off a ducks back. I cannot see why Mika seems to have gone down in british history and why he gets raving reviews, to me it just seems like he is a talentles, worthless, squeaky, and quite frankly, weird guy, who happens to have stumbled upon the formala for pop that appeals to the masses. The masses who have, like sheep, lapped up his squeaky ‘music’ and kept him in the charts and on the radio stations where i have to listen to him instead of the proverbial bin, where he and his music belongs. I feel truly sorry for anyone who has wasted their money on this album.
