Critical reception
Gary Crossing from Record Mirror wrote, "It's nice to see these boys back in the forefront of the dance music scene after having their reputations sallied by some unsavoury accusations with regards to their vocal talents. Here they're in someone else's fine voices with this busy stonker of a floor filler, which occasionally lapses into a 'Dreadlock Holiday' stylee reggae lilt.
