"Locked Out of Heaven" was well received by most critics, some of whom complimented Mars's different musical direction. His vocals were compared to the ones by Sting, while its sound was lauded, with the song being called "interesting" and a "musical evolution". While some critics noted influences from various bands, Mars stated that The Police were the ones who influenced him the most to write the song. The single charted inside the top ten in over twenty countries, including the United States, where it became Mars's fourth number-one single on the Billboard Hot 100, holding the spot for six consecutive weeks, and topping the Canadian Hot 100 for three consecutive weeks. "Locked Out of Heaven" was certified diamond by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) and seven times platinum by the Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA).

The song's music video was shot by director Cameron Duddy and by Mars. It depicts Mars and his bandmates leisurely engaging in activities such as smoking, drinking and playing games. The singer performed "Locked Out of Heaven" on television shows such as Saturday Night Live and The X Factor and included it on The Moonshine Jungle Tour (2013–14) and the 24K Magic World Tour (2017–18). It was also used at his Super Bowl XLVIII halftime show set list. The song won several awards and received three Grammy nominations. The song has also been covered by various recording artists, including Leona Lewis and Bastille.

Background and production edit

After the 2010 debut album Doo-Wops & Hooligans,[1] Bruno Mars revealed he wanted to create something unexpected with its follow-up.[2] "This is me going into the studio and recording and writing whatever I want," Mars said confidently. "This album represents my freedom."[1] It all started backstage, after a show, during a jamming session in a "greenroom", while singing the phrase "Locked Out of Heaven". According to Philip Lawrence, the track developed a meaning as they started to write it, "when you’re with someone who's showing you a new way to love." The Smeezingtons went to New York to work with Jeff Bhasker, Emile Haynie and Mark Ronson and during a jamming session with drums, bass, and guitar, Mars created the riff of the song. He started singing the chorus previously created on the top of the riff. Then, the production team went back to L.A., where they finished the lyrics and changed the original melody. Lawrence felt that the recording was "sort of empty but it had a carnal vibe to it", making them enthusiastic to place a "driving rhythm" in it. He recalled thinking it was "something special" in the studio, the same way he did during the creation of "Just The Way You Are" and "Billionaire" (2010).[3]

Bhasker, one of the song's producers, explained the track's roots as it "came in the middle of the process of putting together the album". He elaborated; "We were just having a jam session, tracking some things, and Bruno started playing this groove and making up something on the spot; we all thought it was pretty good. We wound up working a long time on that, trying to get it just right."[4] "Locked Out of Heaven" began as a "cha-cha-style duet", sounding like Santana's "Smooth".[5] Ronson asked the Dap-Kings to collaborate on the track in order to get a "crisply syncopated, locked-in groove."[2] According to Michael Leonhart, he contributed with "Thriller" vibe horns to the song, however, they didn't make the final version.[6] Regarding the development of the song, the Smeezingtons thought "there's a good pocket on this song right now. Let's keep it going."[7] Mars also mentioned that it took a long time to create it, commenting "People didn't see us going at each other's throats in the studio and pulling out our hair." He added, "Trying to get these drums right and figure out a bass line."[8] Lawrence believes the lack of "heavy hitting drums" and the presence of a small guitar solo allows the song to be carried by Mars.[3]

"Locked Out of Heaven" was written by Mars, Lawrence and Ari Levine. Its production was handled by the former three, under their stage name, the Smeezingtons, alongside Ronson, Bhasker, and Haynie. Bhasker, Mars, Nick Movshon, and Homer Steinweiss played the instruments, with additional assistance by Haynie. The recording was done by Levine, Wayne Gordon, ALALAL and Ronson, while Bob Mallory and Tyler Hartman served as the recording assistants for the latter two. Recording took place at the Levcon Studios in Los Angeles, Daptone Studios in Brooklyn and Avatar Studios in New York. Charles Moniz provided additional engineering to the recording. It was mixed at Larrabee Sound Studios in Hollywood by Manny Marroquin and mastered by David Kutch at The Mastering Place.[9]

Release edit

According to Ronson, Mars wanted "Locked Out of Heaven" to be the lead single, which he considered a "brave" choice. Aaron Bay-Schuck, Mars's A&R representative at the time, found the track's production to be cutting edge, although it wasn't an instant favorite. However, he perceived that "it was something special" but had no idea how to classify it. Bay-Schuck felt the song needed time to grow as "the more you hear it, the more of an earworm it becomes", leading the promotional department to make sure that program directors weren't afraid of playing a track that "sounded different from what was on the radio".[3]

"Locked Out of Heaven" was unveiled digitally and sent to radio airplay on October 1, 2012, as the lead single from Unorthodox Jukebox.[1] It also became available for purchase the following day, and it was officially sent to American contemporary hit radio by Atlantic Records and for radio airplay in Italy by Warner.[10][11][12] The label also sent the song to rhythmic contemporary on October 25, 2012.[13] It was made available to purchase as a digital download in Germany on October 3, 2012.[14] In early November 2013, a CD Single was released on Poland, Germany, Austria and Switzerland, it included the album version of "Locked Out of Heaven", as well as a poster and stickers of Bruno Mars.[15][16] The song was released as an available download on November 21, 2012, in Japan.[17] On November 26, 2012, the song was released as a digital download in the United Kingdom.[18] On January 21, 2013, four remixes were released for download in the UK.[19]

The sheet music for "Locked Out of Heaven" shows the key of D minor, with the vocals ranging from the low note of A3 to the high note of C5.[20] Levine said that some parts of the song are assembled from vocals, not instruments; Mars said they needed "a dep-dep-dep-dep sound". Mars's voice was recorded, chopped up and processed to sound like an instrument.[21] The song's composition relies mainly on a "guitar-worthy groove guitar, a soaring sing-along chorus and sexual innuendo galore".[3] It finds Mars singing a confession of a relationship that is so good that he repeats to his love "Your sex takes me to paradise", a verse inspired by Halle Berry;[22][23] "You make me feel like I've been locked out of heaven for too long/ Can I just stay here, spend the rest of my days here?" he sings.[24] During his Google Hangout on the day of the song's release, Mars was asked by a fan to name his favorite lyrics from the track. Mars picked the phrase "But swimming in your water is something spiritual", and said that the single's exploration of feeling and being in love fits into the "sensual, sensual and sensual" theme of the album.[24]

"Hell yeah! You try to write a Police song!. I grew up listening to The Police, I grew up performing in bars, singing Police songs ... I remember performing a song like 'Roxanne', and you play those first couple of chords, and you hit that first note, and you watch the whole bar ignite. And as an artist, as a songwriter, it's like 'Man, I want to write a song that makes people's eyes explode the first chord!'."

—Mars talking about The Police influence on the track.[25]

It has been described as a reggae rock and pop rock track[26][27][3] heavily influenced by new wave and funk.[28] Tim Sendra of AllMusic described the song as "a breezy mashup of 'Beat It' (1982), The Police, and Dire Straits."[29] For Paul MacInnes of The Guardian called it "a brazen – but successful – welding of Dire Straits' 'Sultans of Swing' (1978) and 'Can't Stand Losing You' (1978) by the Police."[30] Carl Williott of Idolator found out that "the angular guitars and Mars' Sting-like staccato delivery are heavily indebted to The Police," also seeing "hints of Foster the People on the omnipresent 'eh-eh-eh-eh-ooo' punctuating the beat."[31] Melinda Newman of HitFix commented that the song has a "Police/'80s rock skipping beat plus a touch of The Romantics' 'What I Like About You' (1980)."[32] Mikael Wood of the Los Angeles Times likened it to The Police era Ghost in the Machine (1981) heavily influenced by Human League.[33] Jon Caramanica of The New York Times simply called it "a vivid carbon copy of Zenyatta Mondatta (1980)-era Police."[34]

Though critics have pointed out the song's similarities to some of the hits by the Police, Mars told MTV News that he did not intend to write anything mimicking by the Sting-fronted band. Instead, it came to him out of the blue, one night during his studio sessions prior to recording the Unorthodox Jukebox album. "I don't think it initially tried to sound like anybody else, but I picked up the guitar and just started playing [the song's opening chords]," Mars explained. "That's how it normally works; I'll pick up a guitar and I'll start humming a melody, and I started singing that, and I was up there in Sting-ville, in that register, so that's what you get...".[25] John Marx, a partner in the music division at William Morris Endeavor (WME), who was responsible for managing The Moonshine Jungle Tour said "it's the type of song that really motivates people to purchase a ticket. It has that live element to it; it was a very active track".[35]

Critical reception edit

 
The majority of music critics noted similarities between "Locked Out of Heaven" to a handful of tracks by the English rock band The Police (pictured). Later, Mars admitted that the song was inspired by the band.

The song received generally positive reviews from music critics. Robert Copsey of Digital Spy was positive, giving the song a rating of 5 out of 5 stars, praising the "80s-styled funk beats and wildly infectious percussion", the "singalong chorus may be a hasty reminder that his strength lies in fist-clenching". He also wrote that considered the song "one of the most interesting musical evolutions of 2012."[22] Jody Rosen of Rolling Stone gave the song 3.5 out of 5 stars, writing that "The song is about unbridled passion, but as usual with Mars, the aesthetic is tidy and impeccable, pop songcraft polished to a high-gloss gleam: jittery Police-esque rock-reggae verses that erupt, amid thunder-boom synths, into a steamrolling four-on-the-floor chorus."[36] Carl Williott of Idolator also gave the song a positive review, writing that it "shows an interesting musical evolution," and called the song "interesting" and marks it as a shift for Mars and his style.[31]

Ryan Reed of Paste Magazine called it "a driving pop anthem that moves from a punchy, 'Roxanne'-esque new-wave groove to a soulful, synth-driven chorus."[37] Matt Cibula of PopMatters further explained, writing, "It starts out like an early Police single, with some straight-up Reggatta de Blanc syncopation and a shockingly good Sting vocal impression. But the chorus opens up to turn into something less Police-y and more, dare I say it, Bruno Mars-y."[38] Kitty Empire of The Observer wrote that the song "channels the Police, but its 21st-century builds owe as much to rave-pop as they do to producer Mark Ronson. It's an ill-omened meeting that somehow gels."[39] Jason Lipshut of Billboard gave a very positive review, stating that the song is "Mars's best solo single to date, with the singer-songwriter yelping about fornication as a tossed salad of chopped guitars and vocal exclamations buttress his sumptuous leading-man act. Sometimes, the perfect lead single is hard to find; other times, it walks right up to you and delivers a big, cozy hug."[40] Melinda Newman of HitFix praised "Mars' singing and the catchy little background vocals," which according to her, "keep the song moving downstream at a rapid pace." She also noted that "Even clumsy lyrics like 'your sex takes me to paradise' can't diminish that joy that the beats and melody bring."[32]

Accolades edit

"Locked Out of Heaven" received several nominations, including Outstanding Song at the 2013 NAACP Image Awards.[41] It was nominated for Top Radio Song and Top Pop Song at the 2013 Billboard Music Awards.[42] The single received a nomination at the 2013 MTV Millennial Awards for International Hit of the Year.[43] In the same year, "Locked Out of Heaven" received the accolade for Top 10 Gold International Gold Songs at the RTHK International Pop Poll.[44] It also received a nomination for Choice Single: Male Artist award at the 2013 Teen Choice Awards.[45] At the 2013 MTV Europe Music Awards, it won the award Best Song, the only category it was nominated.[46] In December 2013, the song was nominated at Los Premios 40 Principales 2013 for Best International Song.[47] The song was one of the several winners of the 2014 ASCAP Pop Music Awards for Most Performed Songs.[48] In 2014, "Locked Out of Heaven" received nominations for Record of the Year, Song of the Year and Best Remixed Recording, Non-Classical for its Sultan + Ned Shepard remix at the 56th Annual Grammy Awards, but did not win for any.[49] In 2015, the recording was also nominated for Outstanding Creative Achievement in the category of Record Production/Single or Track at the TEC Awards.[50] The Village Voice's annual year-end Pazz & Jop critics' poll selected it as the 25th best song of 2012, tying with five other songs.[51]

Music video edit

Development edit

Cameron Duddy affirmed he gave Mars various "wacky story lines". Nevertheless, the singer wanted to record a "performance video" as it demonstrated a "hard-rocking image". The music video was filmed using "an old VHS camera", with Mars and The Hooligans performing, and playing along with the single live multiple times. This allowed Duddy to record the "feel of a live performance". He added that Mars "wanted it to feel as if someone's dad filmed it".[78] Mars said, "The concept is just old-fashioned fun. No story line, it's not me singing to a girl, you get a good sense of what you're going to get live ... It's very VHS-y. I love that man, it takes me back to my childhood, when the tracking is off and the color is off, there's a beauty in that."[79]

Synopsis edit

The song's music video was directed by Duddy and Mars and was released on October 15, 2012.[79] The concept of the video shows Mars having a good time with his bandmates, doing things like smoking, drinking beer and playing games. He is also seen singing the song with his band at a club. The video has a vintage style reminiscent of VHS tapes.[80]

Hugh McIntire of Billboard explained the video, writing, "Everything about "Locked Out of Heaven" – whether it be the video or the track itself – is retro. While the song references the early discography of The Police, the video takes us back a little bit further. From the style of their dress and the wonky-TV effects on the video, one might guess that Bruno and his friends are partying in the '70s. Only the Akai MPC sampler being played by a band member reminds the viewer that this video is, in fact, modern."[80]

Reception edit

Idolator reviewer Sam Lansky wrote that Mars is "serving up all kinds of retro flavor in the clip for that song, which eschews the higher-concept vibe of his other videos (dancing monkeys in 'The Lazy Song') for a mellower vibe", adding that the video is "all filtered with Instagram-evoking effects that give it the grainy feel of an old tape."[81] Rolling Stone, commented that the video takes place "in a dingy club", however, "the real attraction here are the grainy visuals filmed in fake fuzziness, giving the clip a retro feel."[82] Chris Martins of Spin magazine said the video's vintage style "may be slightly off since the [song] sounds far more Sting than Curtis Mayfield", but regarded it as "a good one nonetheless."[83]

The music video for the song received multiple awards and nominations. In 2013, it received a nomination for Outstanding Music Video at the NAACP Image Award.[41] At the 2013 MTV Video Music Awards Japan, the visual received three nominations for Best Male Video, Video of the Year and Best Karaokee! Song.[84] It also received nominations for Video of the Year, Best Pop Video and Best Male Video, winning the latter at the 2013 MTV Video Music Awards.[85] The video received a nomination for Best International Video, a category decided by a Jury at the 2013 Los Premios Principales.[47]

Live performances edit

Mars first performed the song live on Saturday Night Live on October 20, 2012. His performance was well-received by critics. Rolling Stone magazine wrote, "With a little oomph, a whole lotta shimmy-shimmy-ya and a few hip swivels, Bruno's ska-bop jam was given new life. It all seems so effortless; so cool and fresh; pop performances don't often fall ahead of the curve, but this one does."[86] Sam Lansky of Idolator praised the performance, writing that "Mars turned it out on the show, with an energetic rendition of 'Locked Out of Heaven' backed by a fleet of impeccably choreographed dancers."[87] A live performance was also done on the ninth UK series of The X Factor on November 25, 2012.[88] On December 4, Mars performed on the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, aired on CBS. His performance happened during the Calendar Girls segment.[89] Mars performed the song at the Jingle Bell Ball at London's The O2 Arena on December 8.[90] On December 13, he performed "Locked Out of Heaven" on the second US season of The X Factor.[91]

Mars also performed the song with Sting at the 2013 Grammy Awards, and was later joined by Rihanna, Ziggy Marley and Damian Marley to pay tribute to reggae legend Bob Marley.[92] It was played as the twelfth or fifteenth track on the set list of his second tour, The Moonshine Jungle Tour (2013–14), and as an encore on his debut concert residency, Bruno Mars at The Chelsea, Las Vegas (2013–15).[93][94][95] On February 2, 2014, the single was featured as the third number in the mini-set medley, in the halftime performance of Super Bowl XLVIII at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey.[96] During The Late Late Show with James Corden on December 13, 2016, Mars included "Locked Out of Heaven" on the popular segment Carpool Karaoke.[97] On his third tour, the 24K Magic World Tour (2017–18), "Locked Out of Heaven" was the fourteenth or fifteenth track of the setlist, in the latter case sang as an encore.[98][99]

unexpected with its follow up 2 This is me going into the studio and recording and writing whatever I want Mars said confidently This album represents my freedom 1 It all started backstage after a show during a jamming session in a greenroom while singing the phrase Locked Out of Heaven According to Philip Lawrence the track developed a meaning as they started to write it when you re with someone who s showing you a new way to love The Smeezingtons went to New York to work with Jeff Bhasker Emile Haynie and Mark Ronson and during a jamming session with drums bass and guitar Mars created the riff of the song He started singing the chorus previously created on the top of the riff Then the production team went back to L A where they finished the lyrics and changed the original melody Lawrence felt that the recording was sort of empty but it had a carnal vibe to it making them enthusiastic to place a driving rhythm in it He recalled thinking it was something special in the studio the same way he did during the creation of Just The Way You Are and Billionaire 2010 3 Bhasker one of the song s producers explained the track s roots as it came in the middle of the process of putting together the album He elaborated We were just having a jam session tracking some things and Bruno started playing this groove and making up something on the spot we all thought it was pretty good We wound up working a long time on that trying to get it just right 4 Locked Out of Heaven began as a cha cha style duet sounding like Santana s Smooth 5 Ronson asked the Dap Kings to collaborate on the track in order to get a crisply syncopated locked in groove 2 According to Michael Leonhart he contributed with Thriller vibe horns to the song however they didn t make the final version 6 Regarding the development of the song the Smeezingtons thought there s a good pocket on this song right now Let s keep it going 7 Mars also mentioned that it took a long time to create it commenting People didn t see us going at each other s throats in the studio and pulling out our hair He added Trying to get these drums right and figure out a bass line 8 Lawrence believes the lack of heavy hitting drums and the presence of a small guitar solo allows the song to be carried by Mars 3 Locked Out of Heaven was written by Mars Lawrence and Ari Levine Its production was handled by the former three under their stage name the Smeezingtons alongside Ronson Bhasker and Haynie Bhasker Mars Nick Movshon and Homer Steinweiss played the instruments with additional assistance by Haynie The

and mastered by David Kutch at The Mastering Place 9 Release editAccording to Ronson Mars wanted Locked Out of Heaven to be the lead single which he considered a brave choice Aaron Bay Schuck Mars s A amp R representative at the time found the track s production to be cutting edge although it wasn t an instant favorite However he perceived that it was something special but had no idea how to classify it Bay Schuck felt the song needed time to grow as the more you hear it the more of an earworm it becomes leading the promotional department to make sure that program directors weren t afraid of playing a track that sounded different from what was on the radio 3 Locked Out of Heaven was unveiled digitally and sent to radio airplay on October 1 2012 as the lead single from Unorthodox

Problems playing this file See media help The sheet music for Locked Out of Heaven shows the key of D minor with the vocals ranging from the low note of A3 to the high note of C5 20 Levine said that some parts of the song are assembled from vocals not instruments Mars said they needed a dep dep dep dep sound Mars s voice was recorded chopped up and processed to sound like an instrument 21 The song s composition relies mainly on a guitar worthy groove guitar a soaring sing along chorus and sexual innuendo galore 3 It finds Mars singing a confession of a relationship that is so good that he repeats to his love Your sex takes me to paradise a verse inspired by Halle Berry 22 23 You make me feel like I ve been locked out of heaven for too long Can I just stay here spend the rest of my days here he sings 24 During his Google Hangout on the day of the song s release Mars was asked by a fan to name his favorite lyrics from the track Mars picked the phrase But swimming in your water is something spiritual and said that the single s exploration of feeling and being in love fits into the sensual sensual and sensual theme of the album 24 Hell yeah You try to write a Police song I grew up listening to The Police I grew up performing in bars singing Police songs I remember performing a song like Roxanne and you play those first couple of chords and you hit that first note and you watch the whole bar ignite And as an artist as a songwriter it s like Man I want to write a song that makes people s eyes explode the first chord Mars talking about The Police influence on the track 25 It has been described as a reggae rock and pop rock track 26 27 3 heavily influenced by new wave and funk 28 Tim Sendra of AllMusic described the song as a breezy mashup of Beat It 1982 The Police and Dire Straits 29 For Paul MacInnes of The Guardian called it a brazen but successful welding of Dire Straits Sultans of Swing 1978 and Can t Stand Losing You 1978 by the Police 30 Carl Williott of Idolator found out that the angular guitars and Mars Sting like staccato delivery are heavily indebted to The Police also seeing hints of Foster the People on the omnipresent eh eh eh eh ooo punctuating the beat 31 Melinda Newman of HitFix commented that the song has a Police 80s rock skipping beat plus a touch of The Romantics What I Like About You 1980 32 Mikael Wood of the Los Angeles Times likened it to The Police era Ghost in the Machine 1981 heavily influenced by Human League 33 Jon Caramanica of The New York Times simply called it a vivid carbon copy of Zenyatta Mondatta 1980 era Police 34 Though critics have pointed out the song s similarities to some of the hits by the Police Mars told MTV News that he did not intend to write anything mimicking by the Sting fronted band Instead it came to him out of the blue one night during his studio sessions prior to recording the Unorthodox Jukebox album I don t think it initially tried to sound like anybody else but I picked up the guitar and just started playing the song s opening chords Mars explained That s how it normally works I ll pick up a guitar and I ll start humming a melody and I started singing that and I was up there in Sting ville in that register so that s what you get 25 John Marx a partner in the music division at William Morris Endeavor WME who was responsible for managing The Moonshine Jungle Tour said it s the type of song that really motivates people to purchase a ticket It has that live element to it it was a very active track 35 Critical reception edit nbsp The majority of music critics noted similarities between Locked Out of Heaven to a handful of tracks by the English rock band The Police pictured Later Mars admitted that the song was inspired by the band The song received generally positive reviews from music critics Robert Copsey of Digital Spy was positive giving the song a rating of 5 out of 5 stars praising the 80s styled funk beats and wildly infectious percussion the singalong chorus may be a hasty reminder that his strength lies in fist clenching He also wrote that considered the song one of the most interesting musical evolutions of 2012 22 Jody Rosen of Rolling Stone gave the song 3 5 out of 5 stars writing that The song is about unbridled passion but as usual with Mars the aesthetic is tidy and impeccable pop songcraft polished to a high gloss gleam jittery Police esque rock reggae verses that erupt amid thunder boom synths into a steamrolling four on the floor chorus 36 Carl Williott of Idolator also gave the song a positive review writing that it shows an interesting musical evolution and called the song interesting and marks it as a shift for Mars and his style 31 Ryan Reed of Paste Magazine called it a driving pop anthem that moves from a punchy Roxanne esque new wave groove to a soulful synth driven chorus 37 Matt Cibula of PopMatters further explained writing It starts out like an early Police single with some straight up Reggatta de Blanc syncopation and a shockingly good Sting vocal impression But the chorus opens up to turn into something less Police y and more dare I say it Bruno Mars y 38 Kitty Empire of The Observer wrote that the song channels the Police but its 21st century builds owe as much to rave pop as they do to producer Mark Ronson It s an ill omened meeting that somehow gels 39 Jason Lipshut of Billboard gave a very positive review stating that the song is Mars s best solo single to date with the singer songwriter yelping about fornication as a tossed salad of chopped guitars and vocal exclamations buttress his sumptuous leading man act Sometimes the perfect lead single is hard to find other times it walks right up to you and delivers a big cozy hug 40 Melinda Newman of HitFix praised Mars singing and the catchy little background vocals which according to her keep the song moving downstream at a rapid pace She also noted that Even clumsy lyrics like your sex takes me to paradise can t diminish that joy that the beats and melody bring 32 Accolades edit Locked Out of Heaven received several nominations including Outstanding Song at the 2013 NAACP Image Awards 41 It was nominated for Top Radio Song and Top Pop Song at the 2013 Billboard Music Awards 42 The single received a nomination at the 2013 MTV Millennial Awards for International Hit of the Year 43 In the same year Locked Out of Heaven

record a performance video as it demonstrated a hard rocking image The music video was filmed using an old VHS camera with Mars and The Hooligans performing and playing along with the single live multiple times This allowed Duddy to record the feel of a live performance He added that Mars wanted it to feel as if someone s dad filmed it 78 Mars said The concept is just old fashioned fun No story line it s not me singing to a girl you get a good sense of what you re going to get live It s very VHS y I love that man it takes me back to my childhood when the tracking is off and the color is off there s a beauty in that 79 Synopsis edit The song s music video was directed by Duddy and Mars and was released on October 15 2012 79 The concept of the video shows Mars having a good time with his bandmates doing things like smoking drinking beer and playing games He is also seen singing the song with his band at a club The video has a vintage style reminiscent of VHS tapes 80 Hugh McIntire of Billboard explained the video writing Everything about Locked Out of Heaven whether it be the video or the track itself is retro While the song references the early discography of The Police the video takes us back a little bit further From the style of their dress and the wonky TV effects on the video one might guess that Bruno and his friends are partying in the 70s Only the Akai MPC sampler being played by a band member reminds the viewer that this video is in fact modern 80 Reception edit Idolator reviewer Sam Lansky wrote that Mars is serving up all kinds of retro flavor in the clip for that song which eschews the higher concept vibe of his other videos dancing monkeys in The Lazy Song for a mellower vibe adding that the video is all filtered with Instagram evoking effects that give it the grainy feel of an old tape 81 Rolling Stone commented that the video takes place in a dingy club however the real attraction here are the grainy visuals filmed in fake fuzziness giving the clip a retro feel 82 Chris Martins of Spin magazine said the video s vintage style may be slightly off since the song sounds far more Sting than Curtis Mayfield but regarded it as a good one nonetheless 83 The music video for the song received multiple awards and nominations In 2013 it received a nomination for Outstanding Music Video at the NAACP Image Award 41 At the 2013 MTV Video Music Awards Japan the visual received three nominations for Best Male Video Video of the Year and Best Karaokee Song 84 It also received nominations for Video of the Year Best Pop Video and Best Male Video winning the latter at the 2013 MTV Video Music Awards 85 The video received a nomination for Best International Video a category decided by a Jury at the 2013 Los Premios Principales 47 Live performances editMars first performed the song live on Saturday Night Live on October 20 2012 His performance was well received by critics Rolling Stone magazine wrote With a little oomph a whole lotta shimmy shimmy ya and a few hip swivels Bruno s ska bop jam was given new life It all seems so effortless so cool and fresh pop performances don t often fall ahead of the curve but this one does 86 Sam Lansky of Idolator praised the performance writing that Mars turned it out on the show with an energetic rendition of Locked Out of Heaven backed by a fleet of impeccably choreographed
