“A transition album of sorts, Dance saw Numan departing from the jerky machine music of his synth pop prime to embrace a warmer sound that is less robotic and more free-form. The subject matter on highlights like “She’s Got Claws,” “Slowcar to China,” “Cry the Clock Said,” and “Crash” are quintessentially Numan, but their musical frameworks are quite far removed from the early hits.” - John Bush, AllMusic
