Critical reception
Music & Media wrote about the song: "This band is enjoying singles success with different titles in various parts of Europe. Last year's continental smash, Coco Jambo, is now performing quite nicely in the U.K.. This song, which is at least as infectious as its predecessor, is helping establish the band as a permanent feature on the Eurochart, and entered the German singles listing at number six. Ralph Blasberg, head of music at Frankfurt-based commercial CHR network Radio FFH, covering the whole of the state of Hessen, considers the song a 'must play'. "This song is the type of pop/dance crossover material that our core audience loves and therefore it fits our format perfectly." Blasberg elaborates, "We conduct a lot of listener research; we found that this song with its feelgood, summery flavour is just perfect for us. The fact it entered our singles chart straight at position six seems to confirm our research."[1]
