Reception
[

]
Standing on the Shoulder of Giants
was noted for its
psychedelic
feel, and "Who Feels Love?" was held up as the most extreme example of this.
Mark Stent
was praised for his production on the song, creating a "trippy" feel like that found on Beatles songs such as "
Rain
". With the psychedelic and Eastern sound, the song also reminds of
George Harrison
achievements like "
Within You Without You
" and also some of his solo work. However, despite the acclaimed production, the song itself was not well received by the critics, with
NME
stating that the production "triumphs over any real sort of feeling... pure mock
Maharishi
spirituality that not even
Liam
can salvage from the realm of self-parody".
Music video
