Vicki Lutas of BBC Chart Blog gave the song a positive review stating that "[w]ith a very current electro RnB vibe and a chorus big enough to build Sir Andrew a new stately home upon, this song is sexy, strong and ferocious," giving the song three out of five stars. However, she admits that the song was generic sounding.[4]
The music video for the song was recorded in July 2009. It was shot on location at 13318 Mulholland Drive, Beverly Hills, Los Angeles.[5] The video was premièred on the 1st August 2009. The video features Jade entering a house whilst a man is sleeping. The man awakes to find Jade and follows her round the house with a torch, towards the end of the video Jade is dancing outside in the garden with the man watching her. At the end of the video the man wakes up again thinking he has been dreaming only for Jade to appear outside the house. Jade is seen in many different costumes throughout the video and also with many different hair styles.[6]
