Critical reception
Niall Byrne from The Irish Times, gave the song a positive review stating, "Built on a twisted vocal sample with a clear Dublin accent, the local boy Dermot Kennedy fuses a singer-songwriter sensibility with modern production techniques to create a sound that is at once reaching and intimate. Kennedy is working with an international team already so it seems likely we’ll be hearing much more from him."[4]
