While Prince is off looking for the ladder, singles continue to be lifted from Around The World In A Day. The latest has that distinctive beat, some crazy psychedelic writing on the sleeve and synthesised vocals that first saw the light of day on The Beatles Sgt. Pepper album. So far so good, and although a bit insubstantial, "Pop Life" has a lot of charm. I don't reckon he'll ever top the God-like "When Doves Cry" though. (Karen Swayne, No 1, October 19, 1985)
Yaaaawn. Prince is sooo boring. This is a stupendously tedious "rock" "workout" about horrible decadent "rockbiz" types putting "stuff" up their noses, nudge nudge wink wink knoworramean. Complete drivel. (Vici MacDonald, Smash Hits, October 9, 1985)
