Critical reception

[edit]

The critical reception towards the song was warm; Popmatters reviewer Spencer Tricker called "Big Jumps" the "catchiest tune" on the album (alongside Jungle Drum), "every bit as good as the singles from Fisherman's Woman".[2] Andrew Leahey from allmusic wrote that the song features "strings of endearing doop-de-doop vocals and a commercial pop chorus"[3] and Matthew Allard from ARTISTdirect said it "up[s] the tempo in a sunny, radio-ready way".[4]
