...voice is not the ideal instrument for mainstream pop, but it can have the cracked charm of Neil Young's or Kurt Cobain's. If she had not been too famous by the late '70s to make a name for herself, she might have found a niche in punk. Just hours before Lennon's death, she and John recorded her one indisputable pop wonderment, Walking on Thin Ice, a punkish war whoop that combined his saw-toothed guitar with her high-frequency keening...
...just that I want people to know that they're getting involved with something intense. I want everyone to know that if you want to see a straight down the middle film, then go see Bounce.

Thus, the quartet plays quick but ultimately very melodic songs about longing ("Richard Marxism"), about more longing ("Random Arrival") and finally about more longing, with a dash of self-destruction thrown in for good measure ("Lonely Days"). The album's best track, the title track, also deals with the theme of love and loneliness...
