Critical reception

Billboard wrote, "Dance act that scored a recent breakthrough radio and club hit with "More & More" should have little trouble building momentum with this well-structured, totally contagious spinner. Uplifting lyrics are voiced with the Captain's solid rapping and Nina Gerhard singing at the chorus."[1] James Hunter from Vibe noted that the song "crosscuts his stairmastered Barry White raps with female choruses, sliding that combo against angular techno riffing and housey programs."[2] Dave Sholin from the Gavin Report commented, "Everytime "More And More" hit the air, I couldn't help thinking, "What a great radio record." CHP's follow-up has the same exciting feel."[3]

The music video for "Only with You" was directed by Walter Knofel.[4]
