Critical reception
Early reviews of the single have been very positive, with many calling it September's comeback single. ScandiPop stated "It's fantastic. And we can’t imagine any fan of September's previous output being disappointed by this. To our ears, it's up there with her best. It's the perfect return to form that we all wanted from her." [1] Jon O'Brien from Allmusic gave it a positive review, saying ""Resuscitate Me" is a glorious "arms in the air" floor-filler, whose minimal melancholic opening builds up to a crescendo of epic soaring strings, irresistible synth riffs, and not just one, but two infectious choruses, which sound like Katy Perry's "Firework" and David Guetta's "When Love Takes Over" have collided into one uplifting monster of a tune."[3]
Chart performance
Currently, it only peaked at number 45 on Swedish singles chart. It later fell out at number 60 after two weeks on the charts.[4]
Music video
The music video was directed by Patric Ullaeus who has also shot with Ace of Base, Dilba, A Touch of Class, and Within Temptation.[1] In the video, September is shown to have just died in a hospital, but she comes back as a ghost to watch over her boyfriend.
