Critical reception

IndieLondon gave the song four out of five stars, and named it single of the week. They said:

"Emoticons captures The Wombats’ innate ability to contrast uplifting sounds with darker lyrical themes...It’s arguably the best release yet from the band’s current album, Glitterbug."[2]
