criticism
Benjamin Fuchs from laut.de described the song as a “roaring number for the student beer tent”. He was "not particularly ingenious, but also not as underground as some would lead you to believe." Gregory McIntosh from Allmusic thought the track was the best of You Have to Win duels . David Bluhm from Gaesteliste.de said that some of the songs from the album would give cause for "shouting along", especially '54, '74, '90, '2006 . The song was "definitely stadium format".
Other versions
- Shortly after the German semi-final defeat at the 2006 World Cup, the lyrics of the song were slightly changed to read '54, '74, '90, 2010 on the radio with a view to the next World Cup .
