[10] USA Today deemed it "a touching meditation on the ebb and flow of love." [6] The Chicago Tribune labeled it a "little masterpiece of melancholy." [11] The Los Angeles Times wrote that "Mann never comes off as a bitter whiner... What comes through in these gentle but not too genteel pop songs is a profound sense of, above all, disappointment."
