Reception

Smash Hits said, "Well, I'm lost for words. There's this absurd man screeching about all the girls he seen all over the world and a riff that I think I've heard before. It was either 1974 or 1975."[2]

Other appearances

A live version can be found on the live album Let There Be Rock: The Movie, part of the Bonfire box set. A video of the band performing the song is on the DVD Family Jewels.

The song is also featured in the 2006 film DOA: Dead or Alive.
