"Sweet Harmony" is a song by British band the Beloved, released on 11 January 1993 by East West Records as the first and lead single from their second studio album, Conscience (1993).
[15] AllMusic editor Jon O'Brien complimented the song as a "glorious slice of ice-cool synth pop which manages to be both brooding and euphoric at the same time".
[16] Larry Flick from Billboard described it as a "thumping dance ditty" with "slight techno nuances, an uplifting lyrical message, and singer Jon Marsh's warm, soothing tones [that] add up to a delightful jam.
"[18] Marisa Fox from Entertainment Weekly said that "whereas Bryan Ferry infused rock with sensuality, Marsh and his wife-partner, Helena, lace their ethereal mix with house grooves that seduce and hypnotize."
She noted that the video "features a nude Marsh humming amidst a bevy of bare bohemian babes, all seated in a swirling mist.
"[19] Dave Sholin from the Gavin Report felt that "doing their part to end the divisiveness around the globe, the Beloved do some positive preaching backed by the catchy dance/pop that's their trademark.
"[20] Caroline Sullivan from The Guardian felt that Marsh had concocted a "pretty single" in 'Sweet Harmony', "which married house rhythms to sinuous pop melodies.
"[23] Paul Lester from Melody Maker viewed it as "a wishy-washy electro-ditty with pure essence-of-fey vocals and a spiritual bleedin' New sodding Year piggin' message of global f*** peace.
"[24] Robbert Tilli from Music & Media found that the "synth-dominated tune is a traditional verse-chorus pop song, which means very melodic and radio friendly.
Marsh purrs the vocals like a well-fed feline, the cool detachment of the verse compensated by the singalong chorus and warm saxophone.
