Critical reception

Robert Copsey of Digital Spy gave the song a positive review stating:

True to form, 'That Girl' - the lead single from the band's third LP Contact - seems them venturing once again into new musical territory. This time it's all about the swinging '60s as Shingai Shoniwa sings about a blossoming romance over a peppy, toe-tapping melody that evokes the golden era of surf rockers The Beach Boys and The Honeys. Like a glass of Sex on the Beach, the result is instantly refreshing and guaranteed to loosen those hips. .[2]

gollark: I genuinely don't think people actually care much about coherency/well-foundedness in most contexts.
gollark: No.
gollark: No it doesn't. Politicians can happily get away with not doing this.
gollark: Yes, that was a bit odd. I think heav was going for (based on DMs) "it might be offensive if some exist and some don't" but I don't consider this much of a problem myself.
gollark: Clamping down heavily on any "rule violations" is not a very sensible response to people being unhappy about aspects of your administration.
