Critical reception

"Beat of the Music" garnered mixed reviews from music critics. An uncredited review from Taste of Country said that "it relies on a chorus that sinks in like a good second glass of wine, complementing just about anything on the radio currently." The review went on to say that "Eldredge holds back some vocally, relying instead on hooky choruses and a charming singing personality" and "the production team take few risks in creating a pleasing sonic backdrop for the singer to tell this story."[2] In his review of the album, Dan MacIntosh of Roughstock called the song "dull" and "generic," writing that "it's the sort of lyric that only seems to make sense in romantic comedy movies, but rarely rings true in real life. It's a familiar, overused plot that just doesn’t resonate as reality."[3]

Markos Papadatos of Digital Journal gave the song an A rating, calling the vocals "flawless" and writing that "this new song is infectious and as soon as it's over, the listeners will instantly want to press the 'repeat' button on their CD and mp3 players. It will inspire his fans to get up and dance along to it."[4]

Music video

The music video was directed by Shane Drake and premiered in January 2014.[5] It was filmed in Staniel Cay in the Bahamas, and features Miami-based actress Katie Luddy.[6]
