Style


Perry described the song's narrative as being "about hope and our ability to dream even when we are trapped in our own reality", "draw[ing] parallels between the myth of Icarus and the confines of our own emotional landscapes."[4][5] Pitchfork's Sam Goldner calls the song "a tender power ballad whose glitching, yeule-y intro explodes into a cybernetic wall of rich, blasting synth chords" which showcases Perry's "mastery of tension and release".[6] Slant Magazine's Eric Mason says the song "evoke[s] M83's Hurry Up, We're Dreaming with [its] wistful meditations and sonic grandeur."[7] Spectrum Culture's Aymeric Dubois wrote that on the song, Perry "uses a melancholy tone to mesmerize through catharsis, while her ethereal voice melts perfectly on the atmospheric keys of the instrumental."[8]


Music video


The Joshua Homer-directed video is set in an abandoned building in Bethnal Green. BroadwayWorld's Michael Major describes as "dream-like" and says it "conjures a shadowy, woozy setting for Sarah and Jennifer Walton ... to play out the song's hopeful narrative."[4]
