Critical reception

Mike Wass of Idolator called the song a "banger" and a "thumping house collaboration with Bryn Christopher", and said that along with their previous single "Just for One Night", it is Blonde's catchiest song. Wass finished his review by recommending it thus: "If you're feeling wronged, feisty or just celebrating your independence, this is the tune for you!" [1] Writing for Paper , Michael Love Michael judged the track to be "hi-fi pop gloss that does indeed promote self-love and empowerment, complete with a belted high-fructose chorus". [2] Lewis Corner of Gay Times agreed that the track is a "banger", also naming it a "stomping new anthem" and "a euphoric house banger ready to dominate the summer". [3]

Music video

The music video, directed by Jordan Rossi, was released the same day as the song. [2] Paper called it a celebration of individuality on the dancefloor, and a "queer self-love anthem". [2]

A gay anthem is a popular song that has become widely popular among, or has become identified with, the gay community, although some of these songs have also become anthems for the wider LGBT community. Not all songs labelled as "gay anthems" were written intentionally to become gay anthems, but those that do are often marked by themes of perseverance, inner strength, acceptance, pride, and unity. Research in 2007 suggested that the song most commonly identified as a gay anthem is "I Will Survive" by Gloria Gaynor, and described the song as "a classic emblem of gay culture in the post-Stonewall and AIDS eras".
