  ## Critical reception
  
  Pan-European magazine Music & Media commented, "Hard to distinguish from other Euro tracks, DJ Bobo apparently prefers to hold the most different tracks from his There's a Party album for a later release on single." James Hamilton from British magazine Music Week's RM Dance Update described it as "Swiss DJ Rene Bobo Baumann's drily muttered and girls chorused cheesily galloping Euro hit (not the Troggs/Wet Wet Wet song)".
