I thought this was alright as a B-side to Dear John. Preferred it actually. Although, lyrically, it's a bit so-so with references to previous Quo hits. It suggests that ideas were maybe running out with the writing and Alan had two tracks on the album that quoted older song titles. But musically it drives along nicely. Really like Francis's solo in this one.

Never been able to get into this one, sorry. It's the same with I love rock and roll from that album. I like the other songs on the album though

Like it.
Feel like the "down down" bit was thrown in as an extra, perhaps because it was seen as the anniversary album 1+9+8+2
But yes it doesn't help the track

No room for this track or Big Man on my Mk IV compilation, although the other Lancaster penned track from 1982, I Love Rock And Roll, is my favourite track on the album

Vocals a bit forced sounding or something, not a favourite at all.

Musically it's reasonable but even when I bought the album on release as a 13 year old I thought the verse lyrics were a steaming pile of cringeworthy cack.
Time has not altered my opinion.

Liked the track at the time of release of the album but not sure why now. Not a track I revisit very often.
