The Hollywood Reporter's Review of CUCKOO

“Cuckoo”

The sweeping choruses on this party anthem come courtesy of Bonnie McKee and crew (Anne Preven, Josh Abraham and Oliver Goldstein) who extol “getting crazy” going “cuckoo” and partying “’til they take us away.” Throw in a Duran Duran-like breakdown in the bridge and the unique inflections of Lambert’s voice throughout -- where one line can sound super sweet and then gritty the next -- and this is a song that shows off his skillful singing. Not many vocalists can do that David Bowie jump from approach to approach.
