## Critical reception

Ben Turner from Melody Maker complimented the song's "delicious, disco frenzy mix", adding, "Anyone who heard this in Club For Life for the first time will remember the mayhem that followed." Tim Southwell from Smash Hits commented, "Not quite as catchy as previous smash "Don't You Want Me", but play it extremely loud and you won't be able to hold yourself back. It's ravey, it's manic and it's getting people dancing like mad things from Putney to Prestwick."

## Music video

A partially black-and-white music video was produced to promote the single, directed by British director Lindy Heymann. It features singer Steele and dancers performing in a basement. The video received heavy rotation on MTV Europe and was later published on Felix' official YouTube channel in 2012. It had generated almost 1 million views as of December 2022.
