Reviewing the album in Record, Barry Alfonso commented, "Springfield's now stepped away from her earlier MOR approach and headed in a Grace Jones pop/funk direction. The results are uneven, but encouraging nonetheless." He elaborated that Springfield's sensual approach to songs like "I Am Curious" and "I Don't Think We Could Ever Be Friends" was perfect, while she mishandled ballads such as "Losing You" by taking a modern approach to them instead of the emotional thrust that was her trademark sound.
