| AllMusic |    [3] |
Stewart Mason of AllMusic wrote that that the album's appeal depends on the listener's tolerance for Eurovision-style easy pop, noting that the singer was among the best in this genre in the 1960s and 1970s. Despite some overly lush arrangements, he praised her voice and musical judgment, highlighting "The Loving Song" and "Four and Twenty Hours" as standout tracks.[3]
