Critical reception
Lewis Corner of Digital Spy Blog gave the song a positive review stating:
In a chart climate dominated with emotional balladry from Adele one minute and thumping feel-good club-pop from LMFAO the next, an artist can be forgiven for feeling a little confused about where the current music scene is headed and thus how to create a bona-fide hit that will send them straight to the top. That said, Fulham-born Example may just have the answer with this trailer from his forthcoming LP.
