Critical reception

Pan-European magazine Music & Media complimented the song as "cool, funky and irresistible dance music. Already doing well in the UK and a good bet for a major European hit."[3] Jerry Smith from Music Week wrote, "Techno genius Kevin Saunderson is back to see if he can make it three in a row after his massive success with the stunning dance hits "Big Fun" and "Good Life". With characteristic mesmerising synths and clinical beats beneath Paris Grey's vocal, he can't really fail."[4]
