Critical reception
Upon release, Billboard commented: "Palmer's reliably strong soul stylings added to headbanger guitar riffs and sweet background harmonies proves to be a quirky, but potent, combination."[5] In a retrospective review of Don't Explain, Paul Sinclair of Super Deluxe Edition listed the song as one of the album's "charmless excursions into heavy-ish rock".[6]
