Critical reception


Overall, the song received mostly positive reviews. Jonathan Keefe of Slant Magazine noted and complimented the song's complicated D/S dynamics, matched against a sugary, playful melody.[1] Heather Pheres of AllMusic compared the song to previous works of Gwen Stefani, and new age rock band The Killers.


Music video


The music video, based on 1970s-era pornographic tropes, was directed by Ben Taylor, and premiered on Dragonette's official YouTube channel on June 26, 2007.[2] Dragonette described the video as "very saucy".[3]
