[3] The song received positive reviews from music critics who praised its production and Stevens' vocals, with some labelling it as "much ahead of its time".

Some critics described it as the "I Will Survive of the 21st century" due its lyrical content in which Stevens declares that she has "made it on her own again" and will "feel so good" after ending a relationship.

The video features Stevens with a group of four men in a dark metallic room, dancing in front of a wall of flashing coloured lights.

The pink mid-hand gloves Stevens wore in the video gained a cult following because of the British pop website Popjustice, where they were the subject of a front-page article and a special message board discussion forum.
