The song received mixed to positive reviews from critics, who found it to be a "fun" pop song but also generic and unmemorable.[1] In early 2010, the song was played on Canadian radio and entered that country's hot adult contemporary airplay chart despite no official single release or promotion from Clarkson's label.[2]
