Scott Shetler of Popcrush gave the single four stars out of five, writing: 'The song relies on Timbaland’s familiar handclap-style beats and layers of synths and vocals, which instantly embed their way into your brain. Over a bed of gentle piano twinkling and a distorted Timbaland vocal loop, JT delivers some falsetto crooning and a heavy dose of “oohs” and “aahs.”' Another favorable review came from 's Robert Copsey, who wrote: 'Despite musical shifts in the intervening 11 years and the absence of a cheating girlfriend, the single still manages to sound remarkably fresh.

However, Marc Hogan of provided a mixed review, stating 'And how does the former singer choose to crown his return to pop prominence but with a pickup line even wouldn't touch? Backed with music that's a cross between luxe '80s-grenade balladry and those human beatbox hiccups that, in all honesty, were starting to be played out even when Timberlake tapped to use them, brilliantly, on?' 's Charley Rogulewski wrote that the singer renders the song more like a pop performer than a R&B, and puts a 'wider space between him and the likes of. This man is making a serious comeback.'

Music video Development. Timberlake catching his grandparents' wedding ring, before embarking on a 'lengthy, and quite wrought' dance sequence. An writer thought the scene is a reference to the time his grandfather's failing health prevented him from attending Timberlake's wedding. The music video was directed by and saw its world premiere as the highlight of an hour-long special on in celebration of 's release. Timberlake dedicated the music video to his maternal grandparents William and Sadie Bomar, who were married for 63 years until William's death in 2012. The video is choreographed by Noemie Lafrance.
It features montages of three separate time periods of a couple's life, from their initial introduction and whimsically falling in love on a date (portrayed by actors and Keenan Cochrane), to the difficult start of their marriage with a pregnancy, to when they have grown old together and the old lady packing up her recently deceased husband's belonging whilst reflecting on their life together. At the beginning, the elderly woman looks back in her teen year in the 1950s when she meets her husband in a bar and goes on a date to a. Then, in the 1960s, she cries with black mascara all over her face as she is pregnant and they are unmarried. Meanwhile, the elderly woman, who sees the events of her teen years and interspersed with scenes of her and her husband dancing for the last time before they move out, walks into a mysterious room where an old man is seen staring at the real life woman in her white wedding dress next to two mannequin people while rain pours down on the glass. This is probably symbolizing that he always viewed his wife as beautiful as the day they married.
She moves through the video while the old man and the elderly woman move walk through separate ways through the video and through the mirrors symbolizing his death and her moving on. During the final chorus, one of the books the teenaged couple left on the floor of the funhouse falls back into the elderly woman's hand as she closes the book. The old woman is then seen with a ring which is revealed in flashbacks to be her wedding ring, after she married her husband due to the pregnancy. Her husband looks on and they move through separate areas before the end of the video where the old man and woman walk through three versions of mirrors.
The elderly woman drops the ring, showing she is ready to move on after her husband's death. This transitions into Timberlake catching it, symbolizing that he is carrying on their legacy. He then sings '(you're) the love of my life' while dancing through and around the funhouse mirrors. Eventually he is joined by two female dancers in blue wigs. Justin and one of the other dancers eventually mirror each other's movements through glass at the end of the video. Reception MTV News' James Montgomery reviewed the video, saying: 'It's a clip that packs an emotional wallop, a downright beautiful examination of the ebbs and flows of love and the true connection that continues once our time here is over.
That's a rare thing indeed, and so is this video. It is understated and elegant and really truly touching.' Timberlake's grandmother Sadie Bomar told Italian weekly that 'Justin didn't tell me he was doing it making the video, it was a surprise.
He said, “You have to see this video, just you sit down and watch it'. I was moved by it, it brings tears to my eyes. It's a lovely tribute to us.' Timberlake took home the award for at the.

Maura Johnston from Spin wrote: 'The love scenes between the elder version of the couple are particularly touching; when it's eventually revealed that they've been happening only in the woman’s mind, they become heartbreaking. Plus, there's some fine JT dance moves: Wearing a long coat, silver-tipped shoes, and a severe side part, he shows off his footwork in a hall of mirrors, creating an illusion of endless Justins.'
