Critical reception

Music & Media wrote about the song: "The well-known PWL-vibe, sometimes known as 'the sound of a bright young Britain' strikes back. G.L.A.D. stands for Good Lovin And Devotion, and is taken from Appleby's solo debut album as the follow-up to Don't Worry. It's solid but not exactly profound."[1]
