Turn Your Lights
On
- Time Out (London) - July 14th 1999
Sleeve credits of the week "String section - arrived late. Cost
a fortune. Whinged about everything and left as soon as they possibly
could. And No! I didn't get their names." and then admirably: "This
CD single contains no reference to the millennium". And the music?
The melodic grace of the Go-Betweens plus the rain splashed poetry of
the Blue Nile, multiplied by the Lightning Seeds but without their hideous
jauntiness, equals supreme pop confection.
David Peschek
- BBC Ceefax - 22nd July 1999
Gorgeous tune that will surely run and run over the summer months. Pitch
perfect vocals on the higher end of the scale and a chorus to die for.
His real name's Ken, by the way.
Chris Charles
- Evening Standard - July 1999
A bit like the Lightning Seeds, but funkier. A great song for the car
stereo as you sit in queues on bubbling motorways - you can't help but
smile as you listen. Terrifically upbeat, nay jaunty, silly lyrics and
a great bassline kept just under control in the background. Summer has
arrived, just a tad late.
