Reception
Sandata made it to the list "7 new local music releases to listen to" made by CNN Philippines, according to the article, "the song continues Sarah Geronimo's streak of Filipino dance pop anthems that began with Ikot-ikot then led us to Kilometro and Tala. While its production feels more low-key, less anthemic than past turns, Sandata makes up for it by finding Geronimo at her most polished and nuanced. This one's a grower, and as far as Filipino pop goes, it's a risk well-taken."
