musicOMH's John Murphy stated that the track "gets things started in a suitably smouldering way, a soulful, swaggering number that’s both slow-burning and, when the chorus kicks in, gloriously unrestrained." Graeme Virtue of The Guardian described the song as "a sexy mega-thumper enhanced by mournful melodica toots."Stereogum critic Pranav Trewn called the song "an audacious, groovy slow-burner built on a muted bassline and sold via firecracker guitars and an impeccable-as-ever vocal performance".
