Critical reception

The song received a favorable review from Taste of Country, which said that "the specifics are what set the song apart from others that borrow from the same spice rack of country song cooking." It concluded that "the singer isn’t veering from a course that’s clearly working for him."^[3]

Music video

The music video was directed by Peter Zavadil and premiered in December 2013.^[4] The video is a sequel to the music video of Moore's song "Point at You." Jesica Ahlberg, who played Moore's girlfriend in the "Point at You" video, reprises her role in this video. The video shows Moore and his girlfriend acting out the song's lyrics by driving around town late at night and running from the police. In between these scenes Moore is shown standing in middle of the hallway of closed high school, singing the song.
