Critical reception
Andy Beevers from 'Music Week' gave "Feels Like Heaven" five out of five. He wrote, "The follow-up to The Key The Secret unsurprisingly sticks to pretty much the same infectious upbeat house formula. It should not have much trouble following its predecessor into the Top 40, although it may not reach the same dizzy heights." The magazine's 'RM' Dance Update described it as a "bright and catchy sequel".
