"My Way of Thinking" is a song by British reggae band UB40, released as their second single in June 1980.
It was released as a double A-side with a cover of Randy Newman's "I Think It's Going to Rain Today", and peaked at number six on the UK Singles Chart.
[1] After its release, guitarist Robin Campbell described the lyrics as "very sexist [and that] it's supposed to be tongue-in-cheek though.
[3] Interviewing UB40 for Smash Hits after the release of "My of Thinking", Mike Stand described the song as a "disappointment [and that] the weakness, I feel, comes from a lack of emotion in the words.
[2] Reviewing "My Way of Thinking" for Record Mirror, Chris Westwood wrote that "UB40 reggae is barely unusually different to any other reggae; it's finely funnelled in the direction of chartland with pleasantly lilting rhythms and poking saxes [and that] it still isn't prepared to push itself hard enough to rock anyone's preconceptions, but that, of course, is hardly UB40's game".
