Critical reception

IndieLondon gave the song a positive review, saying:

"It’s a song brimming with hope and positivity, and finds Murph’s vocals in soaring form, while echoed electronic arrangements and wall of noise guitars reverberate in the background. It all adds up to create a thrilling whole and is another rip-roaring example of why Glitterbug is now keenly anticipated."[4]
