Reception
[edit]"Moon Rocks" has received mixed reviews from various sources such as author Ian Gittins, who stated that it "is little more than a studio jam promoted to a filler album cut." Gittins then stated that "lf Byrne's lyrics were, on previous albums, overcalibrated and micro-edited, these words are lazily casual" Gittins also praised it for shifting into a "wavering falsetto for a solo call-and-response routine" and finally stating that "It's an indifferent lyric for a relatively inconsequential song."[2]
