What he needs is another "Oliver's Army" — a big hit that will become a standard — and this is not it. It has the strong melody, impeccable playing, witty lyrics. big production ... but it lacks that commercial something extra, the ability to jump out of the radio and say Buy This Now. So take it from me — buy this now (and get the I2-inch if you can). << >> Smash Hits, August 5 - 18, 1982 Tim De Lisle reviews the single for "Man Out Of Time."
