"The overall vibe of this album is so chilly that the one basically upbeat song, "Can You Come Over," sounds really out of place, but overall, it works. Wilde sings with a clinical detachment here that suits her voice quite well; whenever Wilde tries to emote musically, the results sound forced and melodramatic, but her icy edge on this album is surprisingly appealing".

"These three reissues are nicely put together - the demos and rough mixes are real finds and the videos are good fun to watch, if perhaps not essential. Kim Wilde, backed by the songs of brother Ricky and dad Marty, presented some irresistibly breezy and fresh pure pop on these three LPs, with the debut's punch making it my favourite. She was clearly a smart cookie and her voice and charisma brightened the early 80s with vim and panache, as evidenced here again and again".
