Critical reception

edit

British magazine Music Week wrote, "A Euro-pop/techno tune boasting the same furious breakbeats as predecessor "Son of a Gun" but without the force to propel it quite as high in the charts."[1] Iestyn George from NME noted its "nose-bleeding rhythms", "stabbing synth-patterns" and "jarring vocals", adding that the song "is the sort of relentless Eurotrash custom-made to cause mayhem in Scotland (home of the rave) and send the rest of us scuttling for the Anderson shelters."[2]
