Critical reception

Robert Leedham for Drowned in Sound gave a mixed response, saying he "understand[s] why [it] was chosen as a lead single: its placement at the time of writing on Radio 2's 'A List' probably justifies the decision. As a song though, it's wet." [1]

Chart performance

The single peaked at #128 in the UK Singles Chart. [2] This compares to the #9 peak position of "I Thought It Was Over", the lead single for the band's previous album Join With Us . It did not chart in any other countries, except for Scotland where it peaked at #92. [3]
