Critical reception

Sarah Harris of the Evening Chronicle praised the single, scribing "There isn't much to say about this single, apart from yet again we are treated to another great single from hit band Blue. This time they have teamed up with Kool & the Gang and Lil' Kim, to produce a great cover of 'Get Down on It', originally released by Kool & the Gang." She continued saying "The whole band seems to be involved, and it's a great song to dance to."[25] Music Week also noted "Blue have added rap sections, most notably a sassy contribution from Lil' Kim, to the hand-clapping funk of James Taylor and the Gangs' original version."[26]
