Critical reception
Carmine Pascuzzi describes the song as being "more serious than it might appear." She goes onto state that "It’s still a relatively mild, pop-infected song that has that distinct Jebediah grain, and it’s a good one to get into too. It’s spirited, with the added bagpipe influence, a rare advancement into something more experimental for this band."
Michael Tran at Oz Music Central describes the song's "pop urgency and infectious “oohs”" as setting "the agenda for the rest of the album."
