[5] The "introspective" song is "set to soft-sounding synths, snare drums and acoustic guitars" that shows Zayn sees himself as a "hopeless romantic".
[6] Described as "a cheesy ode to falling head over heels", he sings on the chorus: "Feels like stardust / Floatin' all around us / Shootin' right across the big black sky".
[7] felt that the song "is easily the highlight" of the album "and one that will lend itself perfectly to concert sing-a-longs, in time for the first live shows of his solo career" even though "the lyrics of the chorus could feel cliche", but it works because "there is such a dreamlike quality that it hardly matters".
Jason Lipshutz of Billboard ranked the song as the best track from Room Under the Stairs stating, "Zayn operates in a different sound than he's used to, but relies on his well-worn vocal warmth and previous iterations of fluttery romance.
[13] Directed by Frank and Ivanna Borin, the video finds Zayn as a celestial being trapped on Earth and is guided by falling stars as he explores a "magic-tinged lake" and a forest.
