The achy-breaky vocals and naive spanish-ish guitar at the start of this song might lead you to think Mika has downgraded the glitter and gone all Born Ruffians on us. But it’s only a matter of time till a sub-gospel backing chorus kicks in, followed by the vague, cloying lyrics urging listeners to ‘go find your spirit in a lost-and-found’. Nevertheless it’s a surprisingly restrained, if insincere effort from the man who would be Queen.
