It's great to write a song about "Space" - it's an unusual subject and they've done it in a really novel way. It's almost sad at times - especially if you live in a built up city. The song's got that Talking Heads/David Byrne sound which I like. I think they're one of the best new English groups around because they've got intelligence and this is the best new song and the most original lyrics I've heard in a long time. (Gary Kemp, Smash Hits, October 8, 1986)
It's Immaterial never said they were going to conform to expectations and so the deliberately deadpan approach they adopt here is wilfulness personified. This is Itsy in funny peculiar and not funny ha ha mood, too slow and atmospheric to capitalise on "Driving" and never as charming as in "Ed's Funky Diner". Forgettable. 2/5 (Max Bell, No 1, October 18, 1986)
