The single peaked at number 38 on the Mexico Ingles Airplay chart.
Music video
A music video for "Mind Mischief" was made. It was filmed on the premises of Ashlyns School in Berkhamsted, England. The video was controversial however, as it features a male student (played by Bill Milner) fantasising about his female teacher. The head teacher of the school, James Shapland, said: "If we had known it was going to be quite like that, we would not have agreed to it".
Reception
Paste ranked "Mind Mischief" the third best Tame Impala song. They thought that it had the catchiest guitar riff written by Parker, as well as perhaps his most interesting percussion.
In 2015, Ciara Knight, writing for the Irish website Joe, ranked "Mind Mischief" #22 on her ranking of every Tame Impala song. She wrote: "From the first guitar chord the tone is set for what is guaranteed to be a slow but punchy little jam that's best enjoyed late in the day, ideally with a beer and a cigarette".
The Australian website Beat considered "Mind Mischief" to be one of the best Tame Impala songs, and called it an adored cut, as it "presents a stellar drum loop and magnetic bass line".
