Critical reception
British magazine Music Week rated the song three out of five, picking it as Single of the Week. They added, "Gaining converts by the day, Beck's maverick touch has now felt fully by the mainstream and this typically languid effort will reinforce his growing reputation as a very cool cat."[1] David Sinclair from The Times described it as a "gloriously off-kilter combination of country-rock tune and street-hustle percussion."[2]
Controversy
In the early versions of this song, Beck sampled a talking Barbie doll, but Mattel did not grant permission to include the audio.[3]
