Critical reception
In an 2020 retrospective review, Matthew Hocter from Albumism noted the "funky groove" of the song, adding that it's a "continued demonstration of their vocal symbiosis".[3] AllMusic editor Jose F. Promis called it "biting" in his review of Born to Sing.[4] Upon the release, Larry Flick from Billboard complimented it as a "bass-lined funk gem", remarking that "flawless harmonizing softens track's rough-hewn groove foundation, and makes this sound like another radio smash."[5] Pan-European magazine Music & Media declared the song as "mid-tempo dance-pop, in a soulful setting, featuring a bitter-sweet melody and outstanding vocal exercises."[6] Roger Morton from NME wrote, "The Vogue do Janet Jackson but substitute her defiance with a Supremes style quiescence."[7] David Quantick for Smash Hits labeled it as "comparatively active".[8]
