It was a club hit, peaking at number 3 on the US 'Billboard' Hot Dance Club Songs chart, with 13 weeks within the chart. Additionally, it charted in Australia and the UK, peaking at number 54 and 69, but was a bigger hit on the UK Dance Chart, reaching number 31. A music video was also made to accompany the song. Critical receptionLarry Flick from 'Billboard' wrote that Graham "follows her smashing cover of "Ain't Nobody" with a sultry R&B original that has been tweaked for clubland consumption by the reliably creative Teri Bristol and Mark Picchiotti. In their hands, Graham sashays inside a lush house context with the finesse that befits her seasoned career. Do not ignore the song's album version, which kicks an old-school soul vibe." Tim Jeffery from 'Music Week's 'RM' Dance Update commented, "I know what you're thinking 'Not another attempt by Jaki to get in on the pop garage act' and you're partly right. The house mixes are cheesy and cliched with predictable piano breaks and all the rest, but the original swinging funky version is really very good, with an old-school feel that suits Graham's voice far better than the House versions. With midtempo swing tracks regularly hitting the charts now maybe she's finally found her niche again." Track listingChartsRelease historyReferences | |
