Reception

Critical response
Ben Hogwood of musicOMH was favorable of the song, saying that "Flashdance" has given Deep Dish "a huge worldwide club hit, its full-bodied hook picked up by many a DJ". Hogwood named it the most commercial track on the album, which according to him "loosely follows the lead of its predecessor, teaming moody instrumentals with club based vocal tracks". The remix "Flashdance (Guetta & Garraud F*** Me I'm Famous Remix)" was nominated to the Grammy Award for Best Remixed Recording, Non-Classical. Chart performance
For the chart issue dated October 9, 2004, "Flashdance" debuted at number three on the UK Singles Chart, becoming Deep Dish's first and only single to reach the UK top 10. It was the second-highest entry for that week, behind "I Hope You Dance" by Ronan Keating.

In 2005 a mashup of "Flashdance" with the Dire Straits song "Money for Nothing" was included on the George Is On album.
