Critical reception

Music & Media wrote about the song: "Although the overall feeling here is mellow with some ambient influences shining through, B.G.'s latest is still very much a dancefloor killer. Its crystal-clear sound and strong hooks should help it find a place on radio as well."[1]

The music video for "The Colour of My Dreams" was directed by Matt Broadley.[2]
