A demo of the song has surfaced online after accidentally being uploaded to Vickers's Myspace page where it remains.

Robert Copsey from Digital Spy wrote that "It all adds up to a smart, sophisticated pop tune carried off with enough conviction to discourage any future bad boys hoping to give her the runaround.

"[1] Fraser McAlpine from BBC Radio 1 gave the song four stars out of five, saying "I'm just saying there's room for improvement.

It really is a wondrous thing, because at the beginning it is all jabby and urgent and angry, and at the end it becomes floaty and mournful.

Vickers' also did a Hot Desk Interview for ITV2 around the time of release of The Boy Who Murdered Love.
