The track was a moderate hit worldwide, peaking at #14 in the UK and appearing in serious charts all over Europe.
Critical reception
British magazine Music Week rated the song three out of five, writing, "The Gibb brothers tremble through a gentle ballad. It's sweet, but unlikely to match the success of Alone."[1]
