If Mika camped it down JUST a little bit he'd probably arrive at a sound not dissimilar to London born Singer-Songwriter Julian Perretta. What we have here is a polished pomp-pop glitter-ball that ticks as many boxes as humanly possible in the space of 4 minutes.

Beginning with a kazoo hook (you heard that right ) which sounds like the grange hill theme given a Mark Ronson make-over, the song soon settles into a familiar groove. There's much to admire here in the songs smooth verse and virtuoso vocal performance but the chorus is a dramatic let-down. The tension developed in the verse really needed a decent pay-off and the chorus just feels like a damp squib with some questionable lyrics ("Stop, drop, go throw up the letter") and a backing track which shows no definable shift from the verse, either melodically or dynamically. Of course the chorus (or lack thereof) does eventually pay-off in the middle 8 and resolves comfortably by songs end, but I expected more.

It may be a little late in the year for something this unashamedly summery but given the right push I could easily see 'Wonder Why' gracing the top rung of the charts. It's breezy glamour is far from perfect (and I would imagine after 4 or 5 spins even the most forgiving music fan would tire of that intro) but it's pleasant enough fare that should go some way to towards enamouring Julian Perretta to his target market of middle aged women who buys their music at Tescos.
