In April 2009, Jason Whittaker from Australian Stage described the song as a "chingly romantic single" and an "instant bridal waltz classic".[3]

In 2011, the song was released in The Netherlands, where it peaked at number 53.

In 2018, HappyMag asked if he gets tired of singing it, with Lior responding "I only finish writing and record a song if I feel truly connected with it and love the lyric and music. Because my songs represent something real in my life, I don't tire of performing them because it is like revisiting a memory, or a person, and every time you perform it you look at it in a slightly different way or focus on a specific section and its meaning. Further to that, the way the audience connects and responds to it is always different. No two waves are the same."[4]

The song was certified gold in Australia in 2025.
