Critical reception

Colin Stutz of Billboard magazine wrote: "The understated song rides on a rolling bassline and steady rhythm with light guitar licks that mesmerize as they build to a soaring climax."^[3] He also noted that the lyric video is "equally trippy" as the track. Anna Gaca of Spin magazine called the song "unusually shoegaze-y".^[4] Andrew Pollard of Redbrick said that the song "feels like a celebration of their [Coldplay] distinct sound and musical past rather than a lazy rehash".^[5] Ben Kaye of Consequence of Sound said that the song has "a psychedelic dream of jammy guitars and gentle percussion".^[6] Muzikalia placed the track on their unranked "Best Songs of 2017" list.^[7]
