Critical reception

Pan-European magazine Music & Media wrote that "legendary ABBA producer Tretow has turned this Dolly Parton-like album track into a splashing Christmas song with a great abundance of sleighbells, drums and choir boys. Note the unexpected twist at the end. This one is sure to break some borders in December."[1]
