AllMusic | [3] |
Rolling Stone | [4] |
Body Wishes has received poor reviews. Rolling Stone magazine, at the time of its release, gave it 2 out of 5 stars, calling it "his latest and surely one of his least", although they did praise the opening song, "Dancin` Alone", calling it "a Chuck Berry-styled Rock & Roller that is both lively and witty".
Stephen Thomas Erlewine of AllMusic retrospectively gave the album 1.5 out of 5 stars, calling it "one of Rod Stewart`s worst efforts." In the same review, "Baby Jane" and "What Am I Gonna Do (I`m So in Love with You)" are described as "first-rate, synth-laden pop/rock filler" only sounding "substantial" in comparison to the other songs on the album.
