Critical reception

Deborah Evans Price, of Billboard magazine reviewed the song unfavorably, telling the reader to look at the title and make up their own song because it is "bound to be more interesting than what is going on here." She goes on to say that while Shenandoah has released many quality singles, this is not one of them.[2]
