I didn't particularly like Mika at first!!
However, this song is my favorite among all his hits
I guess probably because the harmonies and interpretation of the melody
the dynamic changes really made the difference
I love that
and the automation and panning were awesome
of coz, Mika has his unique head voice
String Pizzi and pad in chorus lift the song and season it!!
The distorted bass and drums in bridge is a surprise
and when you listen closely, you can hear the long delay of LV
which gives a great feeling of the melody
