Critical reception

Music & Media commented, "Do you wanna funk? Then push the feeling a little further and surrender to John Reid's third single in 1994, on which he goes back to Sylvester and Patrick Cowleys' kind of disco adapted to producer Kinchen's sound." They added that "once more Simon Sadler, head of music at Kiss 100FM/London was the first one to report a new Nightcrawlers single." He said, "On the one hand it's good as it prolongs a winning formula. On the other hand, I see it as their last chance to use the same old recipe again."[1]

Music video

A music video was made for the song, directed by English film director Guy Ritchie.[2] It features singer John Reid performing while driving a van. In the back, there is a party going on, with several people. As Reid continues to sing, some of the people from the party comes out and sits next to him. In the middle of the video, Reid appears in the party. And in the end, while someone else is driving, he sits in the middle of a crowd of people.
