Critical reception
British magazine Music Week rated "Break It Up" four out of five, adding, "Shock of the week – the German trio press pause on their noisy techno and unleash a simple but stunning ballad instead. If radio bites, this could be huge."[2] In a second review two months later, they gave it five out of five, writing, "This epic ballad, a massive hit on the continent, has been around for two or three months and, with greater familiarity, sounds even more anthemic. It could be massive."[3]
