[7] "Ave Maria (Om Ganesha)" was originally released as West India Company's debut single in 1984.

"[13] Billboard also commented on the 12-inch remix: "The epic-length remix of "Lose Your Love" suggests that a new, artier form of high-energy may be emerging..."[14] Dave Ling of Number One called it, "an emphatic addition to their list of triumphs, boasting an odd two-fingered twiddly keyboard arrangement and a chorus of truly immense proportions.

"[15] In a review of the 2017 deluxe edition of Believe You Me (1985), Paul Scott-Bates of Louder Than War described the song as an "immediate singalong track with a wall of sound and a toe-tapping chorus that is difficult to shake".
