Allmusic described "Wonderland" as a shimmering synth pop number, comparing its sound to songs from Lady Gaga's The Fame Monster (2009) album. Kills on the message behind "Wonderland": It's the first track on the album, I really wanted to reject the ideologies of perfection and fairytales that we're conditioned to aspire to from a young age. If you believe in the 'happy ending' and count roses while you wait for a prince to save you its only going to leading to extreme disappointment and pain when you get your heart broken and realize life is not always like that.

A review of the song, described the song: The lyrics seem to be very ambivalent about fairy tales both wanting to be taken to "wonderland" and then confessing that "I don’t believe in fairy tales." There’s an acknowledgement all through the song that life, like fairy tales is both beautiful and dangerous. There seems to be an understanding that the way society thinks about "fairytale relationships" is fake and worthless and real honest relationships are worth much more.

Consequence of The Sound picked Wonderland as one of the standout tracks, saying: "Wonderland" denotes the pop perfection Kills was aiming for, complete with whimsical and fun lyrics ("Who needs true love/As long as you love me truly?", "Will you wake me up boy/If I bite your poison apple?") and a catchy, original chorus. Digital Spy also selected the song as one of the best songs on the album, saying: 'Wonderland' is a fantasist's plea for the perfect ending, laced with theatrical choir sections and fairytale references.Star Magazine described the song as: "moodily marvellous Wonderland, showed a strong, slightly menacing sense of self"

"Wonderland" was released as the second single in Europe and the USA. The song reached a peak at number 55 in Austria and remained in the charts for 2 weeks. In Germany the song peaked at number 45 and stayed in the charts for 1 week.
