[11] AllMusic editor Jim Smith said, "Whether they're sensitive balladeers making a soulful dance single ("I've Been Thinking About You"), or lewd, jilted lovers making a soulful dance single ("She Broke My Heart (in 36 Places)"), Londonbeat's pleasant harmonies and pumping flow are undeniably catchy.

"[2] Marisa Fox from Entertainment Weekly encouraged, "Check out the foot-stomping "She Broke My Heart (in 36 Places)", inspired by Edwin Starr’s "Twenty-Five Miles"; the churning "It’s in the Blood"; and the exuberant "She Said She Loves Me".

"[4] Parry Gettelman from Orlando Sentinel highlighted "I've Been Thinking About You" ("Cannibalistic"), "She Said She Loves Me" ("a touch of Prince"), "Getcha Ya Ya" ("zydeco flavor[ed]"), "This Is Your Life" ("a pretty acoustic number with beautiful harmonies"), "Crying in the Rain" ("echoes the Philly sound of the Dramatics") and "No Woman No Cry".

[5] Tom Harrison from The Province wrote, "Virtually perfect balance of old-style soul and modern production techniques resulting in a crafty contemporary dance music that embraces the reggae classic "No Woman No Cry", the Africa-via-New Orleans gumbo of "Getcha Ya Ya", the retro Philly soul of "She Broke My Heart (in 36 Places)" and more.

"[6] David Bauder from St. Petersburg Times said, "It's not hard to cringe at the thought of a disco version of Bob Marley's "No Woman No Cry", with sampled sounds of whales and dolphins.
