Critical reception

Lewis Corner of Digital Spy gave the song a positive review stating:

We're living in an age where social media-fuelled fan bases can propel rising YouTube stars as well as established artists to the top of the charts. However, every now and then an act slowly creeps up on the mainstream with their talent alone, and such is the case with Chris Malinchak. After winning over fans from gig to gig, the New York-based DJ is heading to the upper echelons of the chart following his signing to Ministry of Sound. He joins a wave of new mellowed-out house music that serves as an antidote to the sugary synth-led bangers of recent years. Gentle hi-hat, sunset riffs and soft coos underlie summer love lyrics: "You've been so good to me/ Give you anything/ You've been so good to me/ Your love inside me." The result is a masterclass in restrained euphoria, proving that when it comes to Chris Malinchak, less really is more..
