Composition



The song was said to include two choruses, one which is "fun and flirty" and the other being a "big singalong, let-your-hair-down moment".

Critical Reception



Attitude said "Giving us all the summery vibes, the ladies newest bop is the pop equivalent of taking a sweet, satisfying slurp of a Sex on the Beach cocktail."

Gay Times said "Holiday is a stripped back pop anthem with an electro-pulsating bass line."

The Guardian said the song "shared comparisons with post-Daft Punk house on Holiday"

Official Charts "Like the best kind of pop songs, it has two choruses, both of which are ridiculously catchy. The first is fun and flirty, reeling in the production to offer an inviting coo ("Touch me like a summer night, you feel like holiday), while the second is the big singalong, let-your-hair-down moment."

Billboard said "The song offer a delectable bass line, top-notch vocals and sensual lyrics (Touch me like a summer night, you feel like a holiday, goes the chorus)."

Edwards also noted how "clever" the editing on the video is. On 4 September, a vertical video was released. On 9 September, a behind-the-scenes video was released.
