The song is noted as having an emotional and fashionable tune, with the husky yet charming voice of the song vocalist adding a further stylish nature to the song as a whole.[2] Jun Yamamoto of Billboard said that he felt that the horns and funky sound of the song complement the story of Joseph Joestar and his battle against the Pillar Men Esidisi, Wamuu, and Kars, further mesmerizing him and drawing him into a "bizarre world".[3]
