It is written by frontman Peter Cunnah and features backing vocals by Jamie Petrie and Linda Duggan. Produced by Tom Frederikse, it peaked at number 25 on the UK Singles Chart and number 15 on the UK Dance Singles Chart. Critical receptionMusic writer James Masterton wrote in his weekly UK chart commentary, "The new single clams things down a little from the rampant dance pop of their previous hits with an almost gospelly [that's not even a word] ballad which may well under-perform in the charts, despite being another example of a song well sung." Pan-European magazine 'Music & Media' commented, "While George Michael spends all his time in court, Peter Cunnah takes his chance to fill the gap in the market. Here he's like a young Joel singing the "River Of D:Reams"." Alan Jones from 'Music Week' rated it four out of five, saying, "Quite different from previous D:Ream singles, this mid-tempoed pop nugget is dominated by piano and soft percussion, which allow Peter Cunnah to weave in and out with rather more room for expression than some of the group's other material." James Hamilton from the magazine's 'RM' Dance Update described it as a "pop crooner Peter Cunnah's huge singalong chroused and piano plonked shuffling jiggly 0-97.8-0bpm [track]". Darren Ressler from 'Vibe' complimented it as a "tender, gospel-tinged pop ballad". Music videoA music video was produced to promote the single. It was later published by Vevo on YouTube in November 2018.
