Critical reception

AllMusic editor Keith Farley picked the song as one of the highlights on the album.[2] Music writer James Masterton described it as "a slightly ambient piece of Euro-dance" in his weekly UK chart commentary.[3] Pan-European magazine Music & Media commented that "the team that brought you the smash Right In The Night (Fall In Love With The Music) reads you another Madonna-esque myth from their Tripomatic Fairytales album."[4] Andy Beevers from Music Week rated it four out of five, complimenting it as "a well-produced commercial trance epic with Spanish guitar effects. The addition of a catchy vocal from Plavka of the Rising High Collective has broadened the track's appeal and has helped to generate a real buzz."[5] James Hamilton from the magazine's RM Dance Update described it as a "Plavka Lonich warbled pulsating tinkly 0-136-0bpm electro trance throbber".[6] On the 1995 re-release, he described it as a "moodily started pulsating tinkly 0-136-0bpm trancer".[7] Andrew Perry from Select deemed it a "fantastic track" with "tribal euphoria".[8]
