Critical reception


Bill Coleman from Billboard wrote, "Sample-happy Italian outfit follows No. 1, "Touch Me", with an engaging, though less-inspired house jam, coated with disco coloring."[2] Music writer James Masterton viewed it as "lyrically unique" in his weekly UK chart commentary.[3] David Giles from Music Week stated that the song "should do equally well both on the dancefloor and in the shops. It uses all the tricks of the Italian house formula in order to produce an urgent good-time track."[4]
