Reviews
[ edit ]
David Whiteway from Renowned For Sound gave the song 4 out 5, saying; "American Dream is a belter. [It ] opens with the words "'do something with your life'" and [it has] a captivating hook and choral melody driven by massive pop sensibilities and their own excellent song writing skills. "[4]
Jolt Magazine said: "This song is an uplifting song that begs you to listen to the lyrics about how the 'underdogs rise and the mighty fall'."[5]
The song was also featured on an episode the Nickelodeon TV show The Thundermans , sung by MKTO themselves as guest stars.[6] They also performed the song on the ABC American television show Good Morning America .[7]
