Reception

Tanya Rena Jefferson of AXS stated that "Sade sings a heartfelt song that is sad and deep of sorrow and no one can take her sorrows away. This song allows one to feel very dark inside, yet the music gives a sense of overwhelming soulful bliss that takes away the blues feeling of the song."[1] Frank Guan of Vulture commented that the song "witnesses Sade anointing herself a monarch. Whether it's to memorialize romantic pain or to recover from it, the act of aggrandizement is easily forgiven."[2]
