Critical reception


Music & Media wrote, "Arena knows how to chain herself to radio. Bass guitar forms the stable base for a solid piece of FM pop rock. Walking exactly in the middle of the road, she takes the shortest way to your heart."[1] Music Week gave her version of the song four out of five, adding, "Sony's regional radio pluggers will have plenty of takers for this soft rock follow-up to Chains, although it doesn't hit quite the same spot."[2]
