Critical reception
David Giles from 'Music Week' wrote, "The team that sneaked a surprise hit with the recent Got To Get follow up with a track that is heavy enough to please clubbers but with enough hooks to succeed chartwise again. The drum machine break sounds suspiciously similar in Japan's Vision Of China though..." Sian Pattenden from 'Smash Hits' noted that "this is harder, dare I say funkier than "Got To Get"".
