He also noted its "groovy electronic, guitar-plucked beat"[6] Quinn Moreland, assistant editor at Pitchfork compared "Still Got Time" to Drake's "Passionfruit" due to its 'tropical-house inspired production'. She also commented that Zayn 'even sounds like he's having a good time.'[10] Jordan Sargent from SPIN also praised the singer's vocals, commenting that while "purring over a typically great, abstract guitar loop, Zayn sounded relaxed and at ease trying to convince a girl that she's too young to be worried about love".[11] Music videoThe music video premiered on 21 April 2017 via Zayn's Vevo account. Directed by Calmatic, the video is shot through a VHS filter and follows Zayn at a house party surrounded by people skating down the stairs, smoking and pole dancing. The video concludes with Zayn noticing an alligator walking past his paddling pool and then a small monkey on his shoulder.[12] PartyNextDoor does not appear in the music video. Track listing
