The result was a string of glorious hits, including the chart-topper, "Every Time You Go Away". Young was most convincing as a covers artist: his supple tenor, aided by smart, up-to-date arrangements, revived such worthy tracks as the Chi-Lites' "Oh Girl" and Marvin Gaye's "Wherever I Lay My Hat (That's My Home)". From Time to Time contains a good cross-section of Young's work, plus several new tracks, including a version of Joni Mitchell's "Both Sides Now" performed with Clannad and the international smash "Senza Una Donna", featuring Italian superstar Zucchero. --Daniel Durchholz

Full review
I recently decided to look right through my tape collection and found this. It was also released on CD in 1998. Of course, a newer collection, "The Essential Paul Young" has just been released but "From Time To Time" is a good compilation.
The track listing is as follows:
1. Every Time You Go Away 2. Come Back And Stay 3. I'm Only Foolin' Myself 4. Senza una Donna 5. I'm Gonna Tear Your Playhouse Down 6. Broken Man 7. Everything Must Change 8. Wonderland 9. Don't Dream It's Over 10. Love Of The Common People 11. Wherever I Lay My Hat (That's My Home) 12. Both Sides Now 13. Oh Girl 14. Softly whispering I Love You
My personal favourites are the cover of Daryl Hall's "Everytime You Go Away" and the angst-ridden "Wherever I Lay My Hat". I enjoy the R and B tinged "I'm Only Fooling Myself" and "Everything Must Change".
"Wherever I Lay My Hat" was originally the B-side to Marvin Gaye's "Too Busy Thinking About My Baby" and was meant to be happy-go-lucky celebration of a love 'em and leave 'em types. I think I prefer Paul's guilty wailings on his ballad version.
"Oh Girl" is a smashing cover of a Chi-lites tune, "Senza Una Donna" is a cover of a song Zucchero already released in Italy. Zucchero apparently means "Sugar" in Italian, fact fans!
"Don't Dream It's Over" is a Crowded House cover, featuring Neil Finn himself. There's also a cover version of Joni Mitchell's "Both Sides Now" recorded with Clannad.
The covers may not be original but the arrangements are fantastic.
Paul's voice is fantastic and there is a variety of tunes on this collection. There is a great in-lay card with a forward by Paul himself.
The tape cost me £7.99 and the CD is available on Amazon for the same price. I expect it's available cheaper on Ebay and similar websites.

Additional notes
Album Notes: Paul Young was one of the '80s' best pop-soul singers, blessed with one of the finest blue-eyed-soul voices since Daryl Hall--whose "Everytime You Go Away" gave the English Young his American breakthrough single--and exquisite, surprising taste in covers. Though more than capable of commanding uptempo work, as on a version of the oft covered "I'm Gonna Tear Your Playhouse Down" second only to Ann Peebles' slinky original, Young's forte is the dramatic ballad. FROM TIME TO TIME's 15 tracks include such gems as "Come Back And Stay," "Everything Must Change," "Broken Man," and a series of superlative covers ranging from Marvin Gaye's "Wherever I Lay My Hat (That's My Home)" and the Chi-Lites' "Oh Girl" to Joni Mitchell's "Both Sides Now" and Crowded House's "Don't Dream It's Over." While all four albums from which these tracks are drawn are excellent, this is the definitive collection of Young's best work.
Album Reviews: Q (10/91) - 4 Stars - Excellent - "..blessed with the voice of a genuine soul balladeer.."
