Critical reception

Juha Soininen wrote in his 2020 book, Move Your Body (2 The 90s): Unlimited Eurodance, that "Find Another Way" "was weirdy perky and a little bit annoying, so it didn't fit to his more somber style".[1] James Hamilton from British magazine Music Weeks RM Dance Update described it as a "catchy 'oh oh oh oh' girl warbled and 'pompin' pompin' guy rapped ridiculously frantic 158.8bpm fierce cheesy Euro flier".[2]

Chart performance

"Find Another Way" peaked within the top 10 in Finland, reaching number four and Germany, number 2. Additionally, it was a top-20 hit in Austria, Denmark and Sweden, and a top-30 hit in Switzerland. In the UK, "Find Another Way" charted on the UK Singles Chart, reaching number 93 during its first week on the chart, on 2 July 1995. It was the last song by the project to chart there.
