Episode 7 - Mika's 'Life In Cartoon Motion'

It's Nic's turn to pick an album to bring to the podcast and he's taking it back to 2007 with Mika's 'Life In Cartoon Motion'. The debut record by Mika was a commercial smash but it was absolutely trashed at the time by the critics reflecting a time of homophobia and pop shyness. We go deep on it to spotlight its highlights and understand why it was so influential for Nic.
