 "CMJ New Music Monthly" called the song a "real gem" with "playfully flirtatious lyrics", while "the Guardian" called it the "most commercial song" on the album, and described it as a "synth-pop Kurt Weill duet".Two music videos have been made for this song, both of which can be found on the deluxe edition of "Silent Shout".The first version, directed by Björn Renner, depicts an early 20th-century or late 19th-century family.
