Critical reception

Andy Gill from The Independent remarked that "looming strings are carried on a slowed-down breakbeat" on songs such as "Put Your Arms Around Me".[12] A reviewer from Music Week gave it four out of five, adding, "Sharleen Spiteri's voice has rarely sounded better than on this re-recorded version of the White On Blonde ballad which is likely to be championed on Chris Evans' Virgin Radio Breakfast Show."[13]
