Reception
Smash Hits, however, said, "A desperately dull collection of over orchestrated nightclub songs, an out of date rhythm machine and a struggling soul singer bring you every disco cliché in the book without a shred of originality or personality to rescue it. Formula dance music for computers."[5]
