Reception

The release of "Home" was covered by the media. An editor from Scandipop said that the song is a throwback to the bounce music of the 2000s, elevated by a pop chorus followed by a huge instrumental post-chorus; the song was also included on Scandipop's Best New Pop playlist on Spotify.[18] Mandy Rogers from EQ Music emphasized that "Home" is made in Basshunter's style, is produced like europop music, and is softer in comparison to his earlier songs.[14] Football journalist Richard Buxton said that the song "could've done with a bit more work".[19][non-primary source needed] The release of Basshunter's new single was also spotted by Allstarz.ee,[20] Official Charts,[21] Radio Eska,[22] Top 40[23] and Top Playlists.[24] The track was also added to the Swedish top download and stream playlist on 4 October 2019.[25][26]
