Critical reception
Larry Flick from Billboard magazine 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."[1] Andy Beevers from Music Week's RM Dance Update said, "This belated follow-up to 'Joy' is another big and confident song backed by an impressive array of remixes that provides justification for the doublepack." He concluded, "The top of the Club Chart beckons."[5] Another Record Mirror editor, James Hamilton, described it as a "Carol Leeming hollered happy M People-ish devotional pure gospel galloper" in his weekly dance column.[2] Debby Peterson from The Network Forty named it a "great dance record".[6]
