Reviews & Opinions

PUNKY GIBBON: Bleagh, this is an abomination! A remixed version of the Prince Charming track with a totally different third verse. 'Friends' is yet another old Ants song (originally from 1978) re-recorded, but it's a fairly weak list song that doesn't do much.

IAN BIRCH, SMASH HITS, 10TH DECEMBER 1981: Let's take the bull by the horns. This is a revamped version of the album track and it still doesn't catch fire. Adam might (nobly) want to be as varied as possible but if this means ditching good songs in favour of silly effects then I'll slip out the side way. Maybe I'd better do that anyway...
