Lyrical interpretation


Pitchfork said "Cole simplifies lust on "Photograph," where he again reminds us that his ideal woman is a holy Madonna who is sexy but never shows too much skin."[2] Spin said it "renders lust as it plays out on social media when the object of affection is a complete stranger."[3]


Critical reception


Alexis Petridis of The Guardian said "there's something really haunting about Photograph, with its delicate two-note guitar sample and a chorus whose vocal appears to be slightly out of step with the beat."[4]
