Critical reception
Matthew Meadow of Your EDM described "Speechless" as having "a fresh groove to it that definitely heats up the dancefloor" with "a strong house vibe that combines with flutes and synths from tropical house, creating a pleasant combination that works for any setting."[4]
EDM Sauce stated that the "new Candyland gem brings infectious vocals, punchy basslines, melody-rich flute and synth elements, as well as an overall feel-good vibe."[5]
Alexander Davis of EDMTunes said "While 'Speechless' is a clear departure from banging big room, it still has a refined groove that is sure to ignite the dance floor", going on to comment that "Candyland deftly fuses indie-leaning vocals with strong electronic textures that give the tune a deep groove that will have you moving before you know it."[6]
