Critical response

AllMusic praised the song and noted it as one of the best songs on the Try This album.[2] Entertainment Weekly was negative however, calling it cheesy.[3] Rolling Stone also panned the song, criticizing it for reusing earlier messages, especially from the lead single "Trouble".[4] Slant Magazine was positive however, comparing the single to music from Madonna and wondering why it was not chosen as the lead.[5] Stylus Magazine panned the single, calling it an unsuccessful attempt to recapture Pink's earlier music.[6] The Village Voice critically praised "God Is a DJ", also questioning why it was not chosen as the lead single.[7] Yahoo! Music also gave the song a favorable review, calling it a "piece of punky disco perfection."[8]

Music video

The music video for this song features scenes of Pink and others (assumed to be her roommates) getting dressed, having fun on a subway, and going to a nightclub. Pink then continues to bribe the bouncer (dressed in eccentric drag clothing) to enter the nightclub ahead of the queue.

The video debuted on MTV's Total Request Live at number ten on January 22, 2004, and peaked at number six.[9][10]
