    Time just feels far too fabricated, far too forced and well far too late.

    To say it’s Stewart’s best album for more than 30 years may, ultimately, not be saying much, but it’s refreshing to hear him at the helm of a high-quality record, to hear him singing with heartfelt vigour, and--perhaps most importantly--having fun.

    In its own way, Time is as pleasingly surprising as Bowie's re-emergence. [Jun 2013, p.86]

    Overall, it’s a hearty welcome back to one of Britain’s best-selling singers.

    The Time album always sounds neater and cozier than the songs it echoes. Yet behind the album’s considerable calculation, there’s a glimpse of a kindly heart.

    Many tracks are fairly anonymous but ballad "Brighton Beach" and the anthemic "Can't Stop Me Now" serve as reminders that this is the man who brought us "Maggie May." [10 May 2013, p.67]
