Mary Mary quite contrary how does your garden grow? With catchy pop and not a spot on the pretty boys all in a row. Jimmy Jimmy are two such mortals making acoustic, guitar-based pop that could be Aztec Camera with added sugar. Very smart, very clean, creases in the trousers and shiny shoes. Nice boys who will be stars one day. (Eleanor Levy, Record Mirror, April 6, 1985)
Making a record about silence is a bit of a contradiction, isn't it? Not when it's as sweet as this. This is a weird cross between Aztec Camera and ABC, with simple guitar pop backed up with strings and a clever little piano intro. Jimmy Jimmy are in fact two Jimmys. Astonishing. (Paul Bursche, No 1, March 23, 1985)
