Disquisitional reception [edit]

Music writer James Masterton wrote in his weekly UK nautical chart commentary, "The new version is to be honest not half bad with toasting from newcomer Pato Banton and singing supplied by Ali and Robin Campbell from UB40, following Bitty McLean as the 2d protege they take helped into the charts. Easily a hit then and a possible contender for a Superlative 10 placing."[31] Alan Jones from Music Week gave it 3 out of five. He added, "A remake of the old Equal' hitting, updated and reggafied by Banton in a jittery ska way, with vocal support from UB40's Campbell brothers Ali and Robin. A happy sound, and a pocket-size hit."[32]
