Reception

The song has been described as "consisting of minimalist pictorial details [...] over a subtle melody, embroidered on a light background of guitars and keyboards that serves to launch [...] a catchy refrain" and as "full of falsettos and unoriginal rhymes, for certain not shining in terms of originality".
