Critical reception


Amy Linden from Entertainment Weekly described the song as a "real beauty".[4] Howard Cohen from The Miami Herald wrote that Stansfield "glides through a catchy, soulful number".[5] Alan Jones from Music Week commented that it "is more uptempo than we've had from her of late, a cheerful uplifting and very commercial cut which draws a polished and soulful vocal performance from her, punctuated by a wailing sax."[6] James Hamilton from the magazine's RM Dance Update said it is "prettily cooed".[7] Stephen Holden from The New York Times called it a "superior piece of pop-disco fluff that Lisa Stansfield infuses with a passionate intensity."[8] Bob Waliszewski of Plugged In deemed it "a positive tune about supportive romance".[9] Arion Berger from Rolling Stones noted that Stansfield "holds up a sturdy vocal wall of Jericho".[10] John Mackie from The Vancouver Sun stated that she "adds a little style and a soulful vocal to the gliding dance number".[11]
