The Los Angeles Times also affirmed that:  “The song explores the inner aspects in a very unique and rock-like way. It is sad but no less joyful and promising.”

This is also her most successful new release ever, vampire quickly climbed to number one on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, setting a Spotify record for the most prominent solo song release in 2023, making her the female artist with the most top-charting singles in the UK this decade.
