 Bryan Lark , writing for The Michigan Daily , called the song " gorgeous " and one of the album 's best tracks , along with " The Power of Good @-@ Bye " . He further commented that both songs prove that she still likes to get into the groove , and explain why this is a techno album and not part of the " Moods " series . Sputnikmusic gave the song a positive review , impressed by how " interesting percussion backing , beautiful use of strings with techno effects and Madonna at her soothing best " . Stephen Sears from Idolator noted that Madonna has a history of releasing albums with " killer singles " as " Frozen " , and commented that " Not since ' Live To Tell ' had a Madonna ballad carried such emotional weight — and this time it was done with a new level of sonic grandeur " . Jose F. Thomas from Allmusic rated the song two stars out of five , describing the song as " chilly " .
