Charlotte Dillon of Allmusic praised Morgan's vocal delivery and the instrumentation.[1] Giving it a B-, Alanna Nash of Entertainment Weekly wrote that "Although Lorrie displays some aptitude for the genre, her reading of the lyrics…is overly melodramatic and she fails to give the material the shading and nuance that could make this brave outing more than a vanity recording. "[2]
