"Taken on its own terms, Revamp is dull, but its companion album Restoration: Reimagining the Songs of Elton John and Bernie Taupin - a modern country tribute that takes chances - reveals what a missed opportunity this is".

"When it's good, Revamp is very good. When it's bad, it's awful. And in between there's the requisite amount of anonymous competence. Sad to say, the track with Elton's involvement is the worst - an extremely state-of-the-chart version of Bennie and the Jets led by Pink, with a wholly unnecessary rap from Logic".
