Reception
Play reviewed Details positively, calling the duo "refreshing" and "not the typical electronic dance-music factory drones" and writing, "This melodic, occasionally striking collection of new-wave dance songs doesn't reek of overproduction, benefiting greatly from the pleasing, softening array of live instruments." For AllMusic, Alex Henderson gave the album three out of five stars, opining that the album had "quality singing and composing" which made it "a cut above much of the electronic Europop that came out in 2002" and comparing it to the music of singers Björk, Kate Bush, and Dido. Andy Thomas of Drowned in Sound called the album "mature", also comparing it to Dido and writing, "They do have more than a handful of good, if not overly ambitious, tunes."
Zach Braff's use of the song "Let Go" for the ending credits for his film Garden State (2004) and the inclusion on its Grammy-winning soundtrack is credited as exposing Frou Frou and Imogen Heap to a much wider audience. Its use as the last song was actually suggested by Braff's girlfriend at the time, Bonnie Somerville.
Wiz Khalifa sampled the song on the track titled “…In the Cut” on his 2010 album Kush & Orange Juice.
Writing for Entertainment Weekly, Ariana Bacle named "Let Go" as the third-best song from the Garden State soundtrack, describing it as "a could-be dance track but with more drama, more heart, and just enough Imogen Heap". On Stereogum's Margaret Farrell's list of the ten best Imogen Heap songs, "Hear Me Out" and "Let Go" were ranked fifth and third, respectively. Farrell described "Let Go" as "a cataclysmic escape" and "a song that bubbles with wonder and excitement bordering on anxiety", also identifying it as "probably Frou Frou's most popular song".
