Critical reception[]

Andy Beavers from Music Week described it as "another stomping commercial rave track, this time carrying an anti-fascist message."[1] Ralph Tee from the magazine's RM Dance Update wrote, "A big moody wave of synths introduces this Euro house record that sounds strangely dated on first listen with its repeated spoken title line and slightly cheesy bassline, but it grows on you with each play." He added, "Well produced and easy to programme so it's sure to get plenty of attention."[2] David Petrilla from The Weekender complimented its "pure uplifting energy", adding that "the familiar heavy synthesizer sequences drove me crazy".[3]
