DIY wrote that the single consists of "track circuits barely-there, showy guitar solos and looped, flickering vocals on a journey that's led by thumping piano notes (think
Massive Attack with an even greater freedom to roam) and the Londoner's glue-like vocals. They piece together a heady mix of drifting ideas... This song is devoted to her masterful sense of control."

Clash described her vocal delivery as "a devastating performance... a hushed, moody vocal take matched against a gossamer arrangement." The single was released again in September 2014.
Pigeons and Planes called the track a "blend of string instruments and pulsating electronic elements similar to bringing together the old world with the new—paired with her nostalgia-drenched vocals."
DIY wrote that "Beyond synth sobs and fatal chimes, there's a simple but affecting string line breaking out in the background.This being her second track to date, the Nigerian singer's already proving a dab hand at making emotionally-led pop sound like something vital, not just an exercise in expression."
