The song was a hit in many countries, particularly in Finland where it reached number 6.

Critical reception

Shawnee Smith, of Billboard magazine gave the song a mixed review, saying that while the song "hasn't moved far beyond that formula [of "Mr. Vain"]", lead singer Tania Evans is "quite the charmer, and producer/writer Cyborg has a way with hooks that is hard to resist."
