The video received positive feedback from its audience. It was seen as realistic, believable, and visually stunning due to its energetic camerawork and creative use of shots and green screens. Some of the most successful sequences included the actor singing at the start with good lip syncing, scenes using green screens and buses crossing a bridge, and party scenes showing the bright lights and traffic of London at night. While the party lighting and skateboarding scenes could be improved, the video was seen as challenging conventions through its montage-style narrative and use of close-ups, locations, and atmosphere to depict a story of young people partying and having fun in the city at night.
