Despite the thematic similarities, Mika’s ‘Big Girl You Are Beautiful’ is no ‘Fat-Bottomed Girls’ but I’m sure that won’t halt the ill-deserved Freddie Mercury comparisons. In saying that, lyrics like “You take your girl, and you multiply by four/now a whole lotta woman needs a whole lotta more” would make any stone-faced critic laugh and this record is great fun. But it’s not likely to set the world on fire.
