Critical reception

Larry Flick from Billboard wrote that "popsters with a penchant for Euro-styled dance music are gonna love this one." He commented that "this cute and oh-so-perky female duo romps through this NRGetic jam with infectious glee. First released in Denmark earlier this year, this anthemic track has already earned major props from club spinners and radio programmers throughout much of the world, and it looks like the U.S. will wisely follow suit. Some singles just define the carefree fun of the summer season ... this is one of 'em."[3]
