The Globe and Mail wrote that "the problem is songwriter Cory Lerios, an under-achiever who takes little care with his tunes; he evidently picks an inoffensive chord pattern and constructs a series of notes that don't conflict, making preposterously weak melodies, which he then places on top of predictable rhythm tracks."[3]
