Critical reception

Larry Flick from Billboard wrote, "Culture Beat, one of the more enduring acts from rave/NRG, returns with "Inside Out", a jumpy li'l ditty on 550 Music. The techno flavor of the act's past recordings remains mildly intact, though the arrangements lean more toward soft keyboards and a fluffy disco context. Perfect for tea dances and other jolly gatherings." [1] Pan-European magazine Music & Media commented, "Chill out with the original Eurodance stars. A cuddly track chugging along at moderate speed combines with a sonorous male rap that makes it a sure EHR hit." [2] They added, "Dance freaks and club DJ's can delight in no less than 11 remixes. Still, it's the Not Loveland Master Radio Edit 1 which is most suitable for radio. The spooky male voice half way through this otherwise happy uptempo beat adds an unusual touch." [3] James Hamilton from Music Week's RM Dance Update described the song as a "bland slick Euro throbber". [4]

Chart performance

"Inside Out" was a major hit on the charts on several continents. In Europe, it peaked within the top 10 in Austria, Denmark, Germany and Hungary. Additionally, it was a top 20 hit in Belgium, Finland and Switzerland, as well as on the Eurochart Hot 100, where it peaked at number 17. It charted on the UK Singles Chart in the UK, peaking at number 32 in its first week at the chart, on January 21, 1996. [5] But on the UK Dance Chart, it was more successful, reaching number 14. Outside Europe, it hit number two on the RPM Dance/Urban chart in Canada, number five in Israel, number 15 on the Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart in the US, number 44 in New Zealand and number 62 in Australia. It was awarded with a gold record in Germany, with a sale of 150,000 singles.
