AllMusic | [1] |
Jonathan Widran of AllMusic called the album as "disastrous" with the sweeping, orchestrally enhanced "You Are the Reason" the only track that comes close to capturing the "sugary charm of the band's old days." Widran criticized the album's overall production, saying it has inane lyrics, songs are mundane, and Russell Hitchcock's voice attraction is "completely suppressed" here.[1]
