The mercurial, ubiquitous brilliance of ‘Black And Gold’ has earned Sparro critical immunity, so it’s now mandatory to refer to him as the neon-silhouetted saviour of pop. Just one quibble though: if someone played the jive of ‘21st Century Life’ to you blind and told you it was Room 5 feat Oliver Cheetham’s belated follow-up to Lynx advert hit ‘Make Luv’, would you know any better?

I would say the best track off the Album and a great single. It's resemblance to Room 5 is passing. It ain't shit.

'Black & Gold', was the most annoying,overplayed song i've heard in a while. Unfortunetly,'21st Century Life' is very average, just like his previous song it's been quite popular and this hardly makes me proud to be British that a very average Californian can have such an impact in our 'Popular Chart'. However I can say this for Sam Sparro, he has certainly showed his diversity, '21st century life' is almost as shit as 'Black & Gold'.

i hate this song. black & gold was very orignal, great song to be honest.everytime i search threw sky, this song is on. i hate the song, and th video.i thought black and gold was very 'pop' like, and it was awesome song to start off with, but this song has ruined him.3/10.
