Critical reception
David Giles from Music Week wrote, "Having made some of the best dance-pop singles of 1989, Dayne returns with a raunchier, more bluesy soul number which suggests that she is aiming at a Tina Turner-style profile. The song isn't immediate enough for massive success but its singer is evidently here to stay."
