The song's title was first teased in the music video for "Nice To Meet Ya".[2] Horan announced the song's release on 4 February 2020.[3]

Composition

[edit | edit source]

"No Judgement" is a sultry pop anthem that was compared to his song "Slow Hands".[4][5][6] It has a smooth, upbeat melody and a punchy production with strumming guitar melody and a catchy hook.[4][7][8] In terms of music notation, "No Judgement" was composed using 4
4 common time in the key of C♯ minor, with a tempo of 100 beats per minute.[9] The song follows the chord progression of C♯m-E-E/G♯-A.[9] Horan's vocal range spans from the low note C♯4 to the high note of F♯5, giving the song one octave and three notes of range.[9]

Live performances

[edit | edit source]

On 11 March 2020, Horan performed the song for the first time on The Late Late Show with James Corden.

Music video

[edit | edit source]

The Drew Kirsch-directed music video accompanied the song's release. The music video starts out with Horan wearing a James Bond-esque white suit and talking to the viewer about a period called "No Judgement" that appears instead of the need to impress; it then transitions to him singing along and spectating scenes of an elderly couple doing random things in the rest of the video.[10] The music video has received over 18 million views as of February 2022.

Chart performance

[edit | edit source]

The song debuted at number 97 on the Billboard Hot 100, becoming Horan's fifth entry on the chart. The song was more successful in Europe where in Ireland it charted at number 6 becoming the fifth top 10 hit from the album in Horan's home country and at number 39 in Scotland becoming the sixth top 40 hit in the country. Additionally the song also entered at number 47 in Belgium and number 32 in the UK becoming his fifth top 40 charting single in the country.
