Critical reception


A reviewer from Music Week gave the song five out of five, stating that "the girl's gospel roots are to the fore on this bumper Christmas package which once aga[i]n puts them in Whitney Houston, as opposed to En Vogue, territory."[2] Ralph Tee from the magazine's RM Dance Update deemed it one of the "highlights" from the album.[3] Another editor, James Hamilton described it as a "strongly wailed Whitney-ish gospel remake".[4]
