"This moves the party into a bigger and more opulent disco ... Ware and company cleverly twist tried-and-true lyrical themes present throughout the history of dance music - rebirth, independence, communal celebration, the quest for release after being overworked and, of course, the desire for passionate intimate connection. Vocally, Ware has somehow found another gear, turning in her most commanding performances while having what sounds like a ball with her background singers. She isn't above supplementing her unmistakable smoldering and blazing leads with clear references to inspirations, recalling effervescent Teena Marie (again) and authoritative Grace Jones at points in the title song, and striking a pose like Madonna in "Shake the Bottle"".

"21st-century disco packed with personality ... The retro mood of Ware's brash pop never feels like a costume, as her tight melodies, killer choruses and dry humour wear vintage details with style".

"Jessie Ware has continued her disco success with That! Feels Good!, which is somehow even more potent than its predecessor".

"Jessie Ware har støvet diskokuglen af og har indtaget dansegulvet, og det svinger. Det eneste, der savnes, er en større forbindelse til tiden, et ærinde ... Hun er muligvis mere levende og fri i sit udtryk, mindre konceptuel ... Men det er både en fordel og en ulempe, at albummet føles mindre fortænkt. Sangene er effektive, men ikke særlig overraskende".
