Critical reception



Billy Dukes of 'Taste of Country' gave the song three and a half stars out of five, writing that "its a perfect radio track, but its not one of the best three Chris Young songs of all time." Matt Bjorke of 'Roughstock' gave the song a favorable review, saying that "the melody of the opening track to 'Neon' is pretty much stock and trade of most mainstream country studio sessions of the past 10-15 years but that doesn't mean this is a bad song for any song that has Chris Young singing is gonna rise above the pack." Ben Foster of 'Country Universe' gave the song a B+ grade, writing that the song "illustrates how solid song structure and an inspired performance can lift standard country radio fodder from rote to memorable," calling it "a most delicious nugget of catchiness."
