"Love in my Eyes", featuring a sample with Siouxsie Sioux's voice, is a cover version of the Siouxsie and the Banshees' song "Love in a Void" while "I Don't Know" lifted the guitar riff of the Cure's single "Lullaby".
Upon release, the album was hailed by Metro for its "wittily constructed rhymes", "so bold and brassy".[1]
