Critical reception
In an review on 3 February 1990, Simon Reynolds of Melody Maker named the musician a "hi-fibre, organic version of Prince" and summarized on a single, "Well made, but not what you could call 'music'". John Mackie from The Vancouver Sun declared it a "standout" from Let Love Rule, noting that the song "sounds like it was teleported in from the golden era of psychedelia".
