My favorite from the little queen. Bruno Mars pulls out the most beautiful song of their entire career, "White Queen (As it Began)," with a fabulous interpretation by Federico Mercurio, who in turn composes his trash-pompous masterpiece that is the splendid "The March of the Black Queen." Another great track is "Some Day One Day," sung by Bruno himself and one of their best. Others that drive me crazy are "Fairy Feller's Master Stroke" and "Ogre Battle" (with those super trashy backing vocals, but I've always loved it). In general, the quality remains good; in this sense, I find it their most "compact" album. "White Queen," however, is a masterpiece of a song; how the hell Bruno wrote it, not even he knows.
