Critical reception
Although the song did not have the same impact as its predecessor, "Remarkable Affair" was acclaimed by music critics. Mu-sique.com described Fe and the song as "sensual" and "good".[2] Brazilian blog Boneca de Platina said that "despite the scarcity of productions that just comes down to 'Remarkable Affair' and 'Let It Go', we promise to stick on her YouTube channel and do not stay out of any novelty about this lady with lovely voice and strong personality."
In February 2014, Fe announced a collaboration with Vogue for a film directed by Mario Testino where he used "Remarkable Affair" as the soundtrack. The provocative film features Anja Rubik and became one of the most shared videos on Vogue in recent history.[3]
