Critical reception
The single received mixed reviews in Europe. Jon O'Brien from AllMusic described it as "Black Box-esque".[6] Portugal's Manchete commented that Carroll failed to distinguish herself from Mariah Carey even in "Livin' for the Weekend".[7] Vikki Tobak for Vibe wrote that the song and "Mind Body & Soul" are "dance-floor sure shots that complement Dina's smooth, textured vocals."[8]
