The Funboy Four in less growly mood once again – “Strange Little Girl” being another walk on the tender side; in fact it’s virtually dainty. (NME, 17/07/82)

Dear me. “Golden Brown” and now this. Even the nasty rough Stranglers have gone all mellow and soft in the middle. They’re much better this way, actually, even though this one sounds suspiciously psychedelic. A hit, probably. (Smash Hits, July 1982)
