‘Shut Your Mouth’ “proves that Kate’s lost none of the fire that’s continuously endeared her to Australian audiences. It’s big, ballsy and gives us every reason to believe that Ms DeAraugo has never been more ready to stamp her authority on the charts." - Damian Nicholas – Editor auspOp. "Shut Your Mouth is a driving anthemic guitar track has Kate DeAraugo releasing her inner rock chick. It’s loud, it’s fun, and it’s fist-in-the-air time. Her performance lives up to the title ‘Shut Your Mouth’, slamming it out from the very first line “You think you got all the answers!” As a co-writer of the song, DeAraugo certainly knows the value of a catchy chorus”. - Christie Eliezer -Pollstar, The Music Network
