"It's Gonna Be Alright" (also known as "It's Gonna Be Alright (Help is on the Way)") is a song by

Hot Dance Club Play
chart in the US.

In 2020, Tomorrowland voted "It's Gonna Be Alright" number 110 in their official list of "The Ibiza 500".[2]

Background

Mattias Heilbronn of Deep Zone told Michael Paoletta of Billboard magazine about how the song was made, "I had been talking to Ceybil about doing a song together. So I gave her a tape of the track. Within one day, she had written the lyrics. The next day she came into the studio and recorded the song in two takes. That record happened so quickly and quite by chance, really."[3]

Critical reception

Larry Flick from Billboard described the song as "a joyfully optimistic romp merging edgy house beats with keyboards that are, by turns, jazzy and retro-disco." He added, "Life in the urban lane has done wonders for Jeffries' voice, which is now far more assured and smooth."[4] Brad Beatnik from Music Week's RM Dance Update rated it four out of five, writing, "It features a wicked, subtle bassline which is cleverly incorporated into deep, upfront, disco and garage styles across the many mixes. The vocal keeps it soulful throughout and there's definitely something here for everyone."[5]

Upon the 1996 re-release, the magazine gave it four out of five, noting, "Already big in Europe, this uplifting house anthem has some wonderful mixes including

Farley & Heller's, but the DJ Guan mix is the one to get the hands in the air."[6] Michael Morley from Muzik stated that "this is a very classy outing with several particularly notable ingredients. The vocals are clear and forceful, there's some sterling keyboard work and the strong arrangement is a fascinating series of peaks and troughs."[7]
