Critical reception
Pan-European magazine Music & Media commented, "The dance craze started in the UK. Then the continentals took over with "Euro Dance". The Cookies are the British answer to the phenomenon, and taste like Swedish "kecks" and German "Kuchen"." James Hamilton from Music Weeks RM Dance Update described the song as a "quovery chugging cheesy chanter".
