The track reached the top 50 of the US Dance/Electronic Songs chart and the Swedish Heatseeker chart published by Sverigetopplistan.

Composition



Matoma wrote "Lonely" about "fake people that aren't there for you and bring you down with their negative energy".

Music



"Lonely" is an uptempo EDM-pop song with a tropical-influenced drop. It begins with Max's "sultry" vocals along with minimal percussion and gradually builds on its bass and synthesizer instrumentation.

'Billboard' called the song a "bouncy tropical jam", with 'edm.com' also noting its "upbeat, tropical sounding instrumental drop complete with synths and a catchy melody". 'Aficia' considered it "bright and seductive" and acclaimed Max for his "warm vocal harmonies and flights", as well as the song's "melodic and catchy rhythm" and hook.

Music video



The music video was released in April 2018 and features a group of dancers in a club setting. Max is shown singing the song while looking into a mirror in the club's bathroom.
