Critical reception

Music Week gave the album 4 out of 5, writing, "Olga De Souza belts out a collection of songs from hedonistic heaven. The success of the title track and follow-up single, 'Baby Baby', bode well for this superior dance album."[7] NME ranked it eight out of ten, commenting, "Once more the Spagna Brothers, I and G, and their mate F Bontempi — who gave us 'Ride On Time' — rock out with new singer Corona. This is all you ever wanted — other people's song titles ('Don't Go Breaking My Heart', the title track) over a belting dance beat. Immaculate."[3] Jordan Paramor from Smash Hits named it Best New Album, adding, "Then the DJ spins a smart Corona record and life is good again! Suddenly everyone's grooving to a jump-around, fling-your-arms-about tune, and there's nine of them to be found on this album! Shimmy to 'Try Me Out'. Marvellous! Bop to 'I Gotta Keep Dancin'. Er...danceable! And well worth your money."[5]
