Critical reception
AllMusic wrote that "Kilgour's solo debut is a beauty, managing the neat trick -- like so many of Flying Nun's acts at their best -- of combining ready listenability with a dark but sweet edge."[2] Trouser Press called the album "gorgeous" and "catchy, multi-textured and thoughtful all the way through."[6]
