It takes some nerve to try to tackle The Doors' classic tale of murderous isolation, but Annabel Lamb manages to do the song justice. Ray Manzarek, The Doors' original keyboard player, helps out to give the song its authentic melody. The Lamb girl singer, who looks like a replicant, can't be far away from success anymore. Memorably chilling. (Max Bell, No 1, August 13, 1983)
Surprisingly, the metronomic dancebeat actually enhances this neatly understated, perfectly '80s update of a Doors classic. Much better than I would have expected, it apparently features Doors' keyboardist Ray Manzarek who has subtly altered his original contribution to suit this version. (Johnny Black, Smash Hits, August 18, 1983)
