Critical reception


Jon Blistein from Rolling Stone called it an "inspirational anthem."[3] Sam Murphy from Music Feeds said, "Sia taps into the Indian roots of the film by delivering a Bollywood vibe beneath her characteristically sunny undertones."[4] Lars Brandle in Billboard described it as a "powerful and uplifting" number.[5] The song was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Song Written for Visual Media.[2]


Lyric video


An accompanying lyric video was released on 3 January 2017. Inspired by the plot of the film,[6] the clip follows a child and an older child with their faces shrouded, wearing half-blonde and -black Sia wigs, searching for each other in a deserted and ominous train station. As the video progresses, the kids reunite, scale a steely locomotive and follow the tracks out of the station and into the night.[3] The song's lyrics appear spray-painted on various surfaces in the yard.[7] Reviewing the clip, Vibe staff wrote that the singer "envisioned a journey of hope and faith between two conjoined souls in the visual experience."[8]
