AllMusic's Matthew Chisling wrote that "Stuttering" "proves [Dobson is] on top of the pop market, with some immaculate writing and production".

[2] Complimenting Dobson's vocal performance, Sputnikmusic wrote, "she belts out impressively high and quick notes during the chorus with no real effort at all, because the girl can sing.

[6] The video begins with Dobson questioning a hotel manager (a French cowboy) about her boyfriend and she thinks he is covering for him, she then sees a man she believes is him.

She then proceeds to run out of the hotel room and takes off the jacket, when the French cowboy grabs her and yells at her for 'bringing a lot of business but not paying' and she starts to remember a party that she went to and cheated on her boyfriend.

As she gets out of the overheated car and walks away, she talks about amnesia leading "to a really bad stomachache" and admits that she is the one "that needed to be held accountable".
