Ilya Kormiltsev wrote in a review for the newspaper Zhivoy zvuk: "Still, when they sing very average songs in a good voice, it doesn't make anyone feel better. A good voice and repertoire need an appropriate one... There's Sinatra–he sang in the same style all his life, but there's nothing to complain about... the voice! And then there's some kind of inconsistency. The voice? Yes, Dolina has it, everyone will tell you that–but on this CD... There is a beautiful-looking, very thin Dolina–there is no voice. There is a potpourri with the proud title "World hits of the XX century": you can hear such an arrangement and performance plan in any good restaurant–the selection of things will be the same, but you will get more pleasure."[5] Track listing
