Critical reception

Tony Cross from Smash Hits gave "Our Radio Rocks" three out of five, writing, "Their radio, their radio, their radio rocks! Perhaps some top blokes at Radio One might like to know just what station PJ & Duncan have turned into... Anyway, this is the floppy-chinned duo's sparkling return to jump-about, weedy rap that sizzled with 'Let's Get Ready to Rhumble'. Though not as good as that, it has some ridiculous rhymes, a jump about bit in the middle, and the two little fellas giving it their best shot. It's better than the album version too." [2] In his review of the Psyche album, Smash Hits editor Mark Frith noted that "they are good" on songs like "Our Radio Rocks", and that "they come on like East 17's kid brothers: all frenetic hip hop beats and zestful enthusiasm."
