laut.de editor Kerstin Kratochwill rated the album two out of five stars. She noted that "as with most albums produced for radio and the mainstream, an army of writers are hired for the (guaranteed) hits [...] Also present is Katja Krasavice, with whom [Leony] sings on "Raindrops." This and the opener "Say My Name" are among the successful tracks on the album – they are unobtrusive, floating, casual pop, with nice, almost minimalist electronica effects. But then there are also the pseudo-modern moments that make your ears bleed when you shudder to remember Modern Talking's capitalism pop."[1]
