Critical reception

Mark Sutherland from NME wrote, "From the brazen stomp of Eurovision miss (but chart hit) 'I Need You' to the lush Pet Shop Boys epic, that is current chart monster 'On the Bible' to the glacial handbag perfection of 'Call It Love' to the supremely weepy 'Call It a Day', Deuce take on every genre the charts have to offer and master them all without breaking sweat. Just as well too — perspiration would play havoc with their make up. Advantage pop."^[1] Siân Pattenden from Smash Hits gave the album a top score of five out of five, adding, "Choc 'n' sweets-full of smashing tunes, including all three singles to date, On the Loose is a non-stop dodgem car of pop brightness. Boogie to the rollicking 'Be What U Wanna Be' and 'Boyfriend Girlfriend'. Blub at 'I Was Wrong' and say "Cor!" as you fall over with the Shampoo-ness of 'Kiss It'. Then put it on again because it's got more pop than several cans of Tango. Deuce, er, obviously have the juice. Fantastically brilliant! Hurray!"^[2]
