Giving it 3 out of 5 stars, Maria Konicki Dinoia of Allmusic wrote that "What England does lack is vocal enthusiasm, but he makes up for it in originality. Produced by his college buddy Garth Brooks, Highways & Dancehalls[ sic ] is a verifiable reprieve from the bubble gum music we've gotten used to hearing on radio". [1]
