Reception

NME wrote that the song sounds like "a thousand Sioux Indians invading the whorehouse at the High Chaparal for a bongs'n'blow jobs toga keg party", commenting "does it really take a major bastard ad campaign for the radio big knobs to spot a decent tune when it chews their fucking faces off?",[3] in reference to The Dandy Warhols' relative obscurity prior to having their song "Bohemian Like You" featured in a Vodafone advert.
