The music video sees Amber performing in a yellow submarine.
AllMusic editor Alex Henderson described the song as "European-sounding" and noted that it's not "unlike something '80s dance duo Fun Fun would have done".[3]Larry Flick from Billboard deemed it as an "infectious and perky Euro-NRG twirler", adding that it is "solid" and "her performance is nothing short of star-powered."[4] Jeffrey Lee Puckett from The Courier-Journal said the song "ups the dance quotient", "but it also boasts a pure-pop hook."[5]L.A. Times noted Amber's "giddy exuberance".[6]
