The track received widespread comparisons to the Beatles' 1968 song, "Blackbird". "Sweet Creature" peaked at number 46 on the UK Singles Chart and entered the top 40 in record charts in Australia, Ireland, New Zealand, Scotland, and Spain.

Harry Styles's music career began in 2010 as a member of the boy band One Direction.[1][2] Rumours about Styles embarking on a solo career sparked in 2015 after four new songs written and recorded by him were registered on the ASCAP online database, that were believed to be for his potential debut solo album.[3] Following One Direction's indefinite hiatus in 2016,[4] he signed a recording contract with Columbia Records as a solo artist.[5][6] In February 2017, Rob Stringer, the CEO of Columbia Records, revealed that Styles's debut album was close to being completed.[7] Styles released his debut single "Sign of the Times" in April 2017, and announced that his eponymous debut studio album would be released the following month.[8][9] For the album, he took inspiration from the music of Pink Floyd, the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, and Fleetwood Mac to recreate a 1970s-influenced rock record.[10][11] Styles enlisted producers Jeff Bhasker, Alex Salibian, Tyler Johnson, and Kid Harpoon.[12]

Styles wrote "Sweet Creature" with Harpoon.[12] It was the first song that the duo wrote for the album.[13] Production was handled by Harpoon, Bhasker, Salibian, and Johnson.[14] The recording took place in Harpoon's Barn and The Village in Los Angeles. Harpoon played bass, guitar, and güiro, as well as provided background vocals. Bhasker played the piano and served as the executive producer. Harpoon and Ryan Nasci engineered the song with Matt Dyson and Michael Freeman. The song was mixed by Mark "Spike" Stent at EastWest Studios, Los Angeles, and mastered by Chris Gehringer at Sterling Sound in Edgewater, New Jersey.[12]

"Sweet Creature" is an acoustic folk ballad,[14][15][16] with a length of three minutes and 45 seconds.[17] Bernard Zuel of The Sydney Morning Herald characterised its sound as country-pop.[18] The song employs fingerstyle guitar picking, bass, simple harmonies, and background runs.[14][19] On the track, Styles croons the song's title over and over, accompanied by guitar riffs.[16][20][21] Sasha Geffen of MTV News noted that backing instruments and vocals get added later to the song's guitar-driven production. Geffen said that the track lowered the magnitude from Styles's sonorous debut single, "Sign of the Times", to "an intimate, acoustic level".[22] According to Digital Spy's Justin Harp, the song, although not very different from the ballads of One Direction, marked a departure from the energetic pop sound of the band.[23]

Several critics compared the track's acoustic guitar arrangement to that of the Beatles's 1968 song, "Blackbird".[note 1] Reviewers such as, Rick Pearson of Evening Standard and Jeremy Gordon of Spin said that it sounded like the works of the pop singer Ed Sheeran, and Pearson compared it specifically to his 2017 album ÷.[20][32] Variety's Eve Barlow noted that the song attempted to emulate the guitar sound of the Beatles' "Norwegian Wood", Plain White T's' "Hey There Delilah", and Fleetwood Mac's "Never Going Back Again".[33]

In an interview with radio host Zach Sang in May 2017, Styles revealed that "Sweet Creature" was written about a specific person.[34] He said that the song was "more so than one story, it's very much a piece of me that I haven't shared or talked about before".[35] Sung in the form of a lullaby, according to Entertainment Weekly's Leah Greenblatt,[36] the track's lyrics discuss the confusion and potency of young love.[14] In the song, Styles sings of an imaginative animal, who's not named.[20] A guitar strum opens the track, over which Styles sings: "Sweet creature, had another talk about where it's going wrong".[16] It leads to the chorus, which has been described by Idolator's Mike Wass as "loved-up" and "starry-eyed": "Sweet creature, sweet creature/ When I run out of rope, you bring me home."[16] Harp interpreted the refrain's lyrics as a declaration that "love alone is sometimes enough to bridge the divide in a rocky relationship".[23] Annie Zaleski of The A.V. Club described it as "a simple but effective song praising the strength of a bond that endures despite turbulence".[37]

Critical reception[edit]

Critics complimented Styles's vocal performance, often singling out his singing as "earnest" and "honest",[20][33] including Mikael Woo of the Los Angeles Times, who described Styles's vocals as "honeyed croon".[38] Gordon said that as with Sheeran's best songs, "Sweet Creature" trades in fanciful words for sincere pining that awaits to captivate the listener with earnestness.[20] Reviewers such as Billboard's Da'Shan Smith and Rolling Stone's Jon Blistein felt the song showcased Styles's vocal range that allowed him to perform "some pretty spectacular power notes".[14][39] Bridgett Henwood of Vox and Jon Caramanica of The New York Times deemed "Sweet Creature" as one of the album's highlights, with the latter praising Styles's singing.[31][40] BBC News writer Mark Savage labelled it as the album's "most effective, direct song".[41] Greenblatt regarded the song as "delicate sketches, wistful and pretty", alongside the track "Two Ghosts".[36] Writing for the Windsor Star, Chris Lackner viewed it as "a tear-jerking, lighter charged live concert closer".[42]

Reviewers felt that the song showcased Styles's strengths and signaled a maturity in his musical direction.[15][23][43] Harp felt that the song displayed Styles's musical maturity and singled out the lyrics on the refrain to explain his viewpoint.[23] Similarly, Jessica Hopper of MTV News noted that it signaled a musical maturity for Styles, by "sound[ing] like someone wanting the intimacy and quiet sensuality of Jeff Buckley's Grace and Ryan Adams's Heartbreaker".[43] David Sackllah of Consequence asserted that the track finds Styles relaxed and that he is able to "find his strengths".[15] In a similar vein, Daniel Tovar from Pretty Much Amazing commented that the song demonstrated Styles's skill as a balladeer.[44]

The track's sound, described by The Straits Times as a "modern-day take" on "Blackbird",[45] and noted approvingly by Exclaim!,[27] was criticised by Drowned in Sound as "the latest futile attempt at a 'Blackbird' reworking".[26] Leonie Coope, writing for NME, felt the song rendered a "country-indebted Laurel Canyon sound" that "could have as easily have been written about Joni Mitchell as much as his ex Taylor Swift".[46] In a less enthusiastic review, music critic Greg Kot dismissed the song as trivial, although he discerned that Styles's vocals and the guitar arrangement made him "appear older than his years".[47]

On 12 May 2017, Styles first performed "Sweet Creature" on The One Show.[76][77] The following day, he sang it on his one-night concert at the Garage, London to promote the release of Harry Styles.[77] Styles included it on the setlist for Harry Styles: Live on Tour, which ran from September 2017 to July 2018.[78] While reviewing his concert at the Forum on 14 July 2018, August Brown of Los Angeles Times said that Styles's performance of "Sweet Creature" showcased his "big range and comfort in the most intimate of arrangements".[79]
