Critical reception

Chuck Taylor from Billboard described the song as an "acoustic guitar-based pop tune that's at once intelligent, clever, and hooky enough to turn ships back to shore." He noted further that "this is mature pop from a budding artist who has plenty to say" and "it's got "hit" emblazoned on every note."[3] In 2012, Porcys listed the song at number 14 in their ranking of "100 Singles 1990-1999".[4]
