Critical reception[]

Alan Jones from Music Week wrote, "More frenetic Italian dance music, very similar in style to Anticappella's near-namesakes Cappella, with pounding rhythms, prominent keyboards, wailing diva and rap. Ideally suited to the Top 40."[3] James Hamilton from the magazine's RM Dance Update described it as a "diva nagged archetypal commercial Euro galloper".[4]
