Personnel Damon Albarn – vocals, synthesizer, vocoder, recording engineer Mick Jones – guitar Stephen Sedgwick – mixing engineer, recording engineer Geoff Pesche – mastering engineer Critical reception NME gave the single a positive review saying "Amarillo is a slow, yet euphoric song that finds Damon's reverb-laden voice evocatively recalling America's vast great interior.
