Critical reception

[edit]

Ross Jones from The Guardian wrote, "It's made in Germany, it's got a bouncy bassline, you can virtually smell the dry ice whooshing over its keyboards, and it asks you to "Shake your body to the groove" in a steely voice."[2] Music Week rated the song three out of five, adding, "German house-poppers Masterboy hope to repeat their European successes in the Uk with this slice of infectious dancefloor fodder, though the Europop bubble does seem to have burst."[3]
