Critical reception
The Globe and Mail wrote that "Coyne, like Van Morrison, can be repetitious and his emotional range seems limited at times—but, when it comes to anguish, he has few peers."The album was described by Mark Cordery of the New Musical Express:
The title track dates from 1977 and Coyne's musical "England, England", and is described by him on the sleeve notes as covering "some of my ambivalent feelings about England and its vanished Empire."
