 In a mixed review, Cinquemani from "Slant Magazine" stated that "however well executive [it] may be, [it] end[s] up sounding derivative".Unlike Oh Land's previous single, "Sun of a Gun", a music video was not created for "Wolf & I".However, a live performance of the track was uploaded onto Oh Land's official YouTube channel on 20 October 2010, in order to support the release of "Oh Land".
