Though the song did not chart at the time of its 2020 release, it became a sleeper hit in 2021 after becoming popular on TikTok, with users incorporating it as the soundtrack to their summer, or playing it in the background of cartoon videos.[3]

Kelsey Garcia of Popsugar felt the song "is a sludgy alternative track with emo undertones that hits at the zeitgeist and is pretty inescapable on TikTok."[3]

After it became a viral hit on TikTok, the song entered various charts, reaching No. 21 on the US Billboard Hot 100, becoming Willow's highest-charting entry since "Whip My Hair" (2010), as well as her second top-40 hit on the chart.[4] It also reached the top 10 in Australia, Ireland, New Zealand and UK.
