This is a far cry from "The Lexicon Of Love" - the sound is much harder while the song is comparatively weak. But apart from the lousy chorus I think it's one of the most exciting things they've done. Fast and furious, the song still manages to retain a stylish feeling of grandeur that is the hallmark of ABC's work - even though Fry tries to rhyme "grumble" with "apple crumble"! Single Of The Fortnight. (Peter Martin, Smash Hits, October 27, 1983)
Out of the rhinestone suits and into some heavy duty leather duds, yesterday's wet-eyed romantics have honed themselves to a revolutionary harder edge There's a hint of those old misty keyboards before thunderous drums and an altogether sparser approach. Good to see this isn't a re-hash of what has gone before and Fry's voice remains magnificent. (Robin Smith, Record Mirror, October 29, 1983)
