Release Notes
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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 songwritersmoreà 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 lamÚ. 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.
