Popular Music Magazine Billboard Described The Song As "a Peppy Kiss-Off To An Ex-Love Now Residing On The Opposite Coast." "Like The Majority Of Previous Full-Length Antics This First Single From Interpol's Third Album Our Love To Admire Relies More On A Guitar Riff Than The Band's Killer Rhythm Section. It's An Antics-Worthy Riff Though. And What's More Paul Banks' Lyrics Are Atypically Not Cringe-Worthy Though "you Wear Those Shoes Like A Dove" Certainly Walks That Line . His Vocals Sounds Different As Well Less Reverby Possibly Doubled Up And More Michael Stipe-Like. Come To Think Of It "'cause Today My Heart Swings" Is The Kind Of Lyric That Seems Straight From The R.E.M. Frontman's Notebook. As For The Song's Title It Must Be Something The Band Employs To Write Catchy Choruses." — Pitchfork Commenting On The Song The Single Was Released To Radio On May 7 2007.

"Like the majority of previous full-length Antics, this first single from Interpol's third album, Our Love to Admire, relies more on a guitar riff than the band's killer rhythm section. It's an Antics-worthy riff, though. And what's more, Paul Banks' lyrics are, atypically, not cringe-worthy (though "you wear those shoes like a dove" certainly walks that line). His vocals sounds different as well: less reverby, possibly doubled up, and more Michael Stipe-like. Come to think of it, "'cause today my heart swings" is the kind of lyric that seems straight from the R.E.M. frontman's notebook. As for the song's title, it must be something the band employs to write catchy choruses."

"The video for "The Heinrich Maneuver" was released on June 26, 2007. It is a single take of the main character, a woman in a white dress, shown in extreme slow motion applying lipstick and walking towards her demise, being hit by a bus. This overlays three other characters whose reactions to the event unfold in a mixture of speed altered motion, initially proceeding forward and then reversing. A man taking out his cellphone, a vogue lady screaming, and a waiter running to the scene. The woman featured unwittingly walks in front of a moving bus whose impact is cut short by the screen turning black as the song's outro is cut short.
The first single to be released from the album is the twisted love song/ode to Cali "The Heinrich Maneuver." Interpol is teaming up with Elias Merhige -- best known for his work with Shadow of the Vampire and the cult-classic Begotten -- to shoot the video for this single."
