Critical reception

Chuck Taylor of Billboard magazine reviewed the song favorably, saying that it "shapes its personality around the elements of a traditional live band: guitars, bass, percussion." He goes on to say that this track demonstrates "evolution, maintaining a clever chorus and some memorable instrumental hooks but, thankfully, shedding the gimmicky sing-song elements of those previous radio staples."[1]
