Critical reception

Larry Flick from Billboard wrote that the dance act "that brought "Joy" to many a punter over a year ago is back with a peppy Euro-disco mover that soars above the current throng of NRGetic wannabes on the strength of Carol Leeming's forceful vocal. She injects sass and bounce to a simple pop hook, while also anchoring the track's frothy mélange of sugary synths and loops."[3] Debby Peterson from The Network Forty noted it as a "great dance record".[4]
