A slow and stately self-penned ballad that's more like "Wherever I Lay My Hat" than anything else Paul has done. Takes its time to sink in, as good ballads often do. Should do the business. (Dave Rimmer, Smash Hits, November 22, 1984)
After the post-Frankie heavy metal soul of "Playhouse", Paul veers towards country on his first self-written release since the hits started coming. The country-style guitar freshens up his familiar bass 'n' synth sound, and the song's pretty creditable too. It gives away his '70s rock origins, but then he's never been at great pains to disguise those. I look forward to seeing him clutching his mikestand on TOTP as soon as poss - that much won't change.
