The Guardian praised the song. Alexis Petritis explained "opener Red Alert offers a weird and hugely enjoyable cocktail of tinny synthesiser, vast Chemical Brothers-style breakbeat and football-terrace backing vocals". Entertainwise also gave praise to the song, calling it "exceptional",
The official music video was shot in Spain throughout a weekend at the start of August. The track was shot on a beach with Anna wearing a purple dress dancing around a fire cauldron. She then shot a series of shots in studio with classic french styled outfits with Anna seducing the men. The video debuted on Friday 17th August on VEVO and got rave reviews from fans.
