Critical reception

Matthew Hocter from Albumism noted the "funky groove", adding that the song is a "continued demonstration of their vocal symbiosis".[3] AllMusic editor Jose F. Promis called it "biting" in his review of Born to Sing.[4] Larry Flick from Billboard described it as a "bass-lined funk gem" and noted that "flawless harmonizing softens track's rough-hewn groove foundation, and makes this sound like another radio smash."[5] Music & Media noted the song as a "mid-tempo dance-pop, in a soulful setting, featuring a bitter-sweet melody and outstanding vocal exercises."[6] David Quantick from Smash Hits labeled it as a "comparatively active" song.[7]
