"Mixed reviews" claim in "Critical reception".
editI'm a casual fan of Dua Lipa's music. I'm always reading well-written and GA-class song articles to help inspire my own. I noticed that the "Critical reception" section mentions that the song received mixed reviews from critics. However, the New Zealand Herald article the statement cites as a source seems to imply that the single was released to critical acclaim: "Her colourful and catchy singles New Rules and Lost in Your Light saw Lipa race up the charts and earn critical acclaim", which would indicate that reception towards the song was largely positive.
