A simplistic addition to the song, and one beautifully endearing, is the recorder. Childlike and a far step away from his usual orchestral arrangements, it's a real focal point of the track. But however cute this single may be, it is not a patch on his previous releases. He is more of an album man and, alone, this song may seem a little two-dimensional.

It's still a wonderful song, but it doesn't show off his ability to write film-score and heart-wrenching big numbers with massive backing vocals and layer upon layer of intricate detail. The opening guitar sound is little too produced, but it will still be a hit among Rufus fans. It's a song that has its place among Release the Stars, but on its own, it's a bit bog-standard.
