Critical reception

Pan-European magazine Music & Media commented, "New recipe from the same private practice. For the follow-up to Hello Afrika and No Coke the Swedish bush doctor has added a spoonful of Real Milli Vanilli to his magic potion. Top-40 programmers must take a shot of it."{{cite magazine|url=https://www.americanradiohistory.com/UK/Music-and-Media/90s/1991/MM-1991-05-04.pdf|title=New Releases: Singles|work=Music & Media|date=4 May 1991|page=14|access-date=19 February 2020}}
