If Amazulu's last single was an embarrassing attempt at doing Mrs Mills in a reggae stylee, this is another nail in the coffin of a once promising band. Even a lazy, hypnotic sax solo fails to save this slow, pretty but empty-headed song. One day, there'll be a female group who won't be made to look stupid by the men they sign their careers away to. (Eleanor Levy, Record Mirror, March 8, 1986)
A bouncy, mellow reggae ballad that shows off vocalist Anne-Marie's rich and husky voice to the full. It's much lazier than "Excitable" but lacks none of the bite and I predict a hit. Good to see some female bands back in the charts again - oops! Sorry Nardo - Amazulu do of course have one male member. 3/5 (Debbi Voller, No 1, March 8, 1986)
