I'm sure I've documented this before but I've never really been keen on it at all. Always a skip track for me from the outset. I don't like the arrangement; the prominent synths and the faux brass. And I don't particularly like the melody. Once you take these into consideration, there isn't much left for me to enjoy. Each to their own, of course, and I appreciate that it's a firm favourite with many. But, as they say this far north, I think it's mince 2/10 - Sorry

Mind you, WYW, JS and NTL are three albums of pure joy for me, bar the odd track, which still have something of interest in them. It was a second golden period which is somewhat overshadowed by the 71-76 golden period, which, musically, for me, overshadows everything by everyone.

My favourite track from the album and I thought it would of made a good follow up single to, Something 'bout You Baby I Like.

We've always had polar opinions on this one - and possibly the album in general? In fact, I'm beginning to think I'm the only Quo fan that doesn't like this track Well, maybe that's a bit strong. It's OK in an inoffensive, bland sort of way. I'm not helping myself here, am I?

Love the track, love the album! I agree with Col, this is the second best period of the band, 79-81, 3 very nice albums, specially JS & NTL.
