Critical reception



Chuck Taylor of 'Billboard' called the song "A haunting hillbilly treatise on the pain of betrayal and loss" They also wrote, "From the opening Appalachian twang of a mournful-sounding fiddle to Womack's achingly beautiful delivery, this is one intriguing record. The production strikes a balance between country radio's standard expectations and artistic inventiveness. Liddell and Womack color outside the lines here with a decidedly bluegrass feel, yet they keep it sonically in tune with current radio fare. For her part, Womack again displays an uncanny ability to inhabit a song-turning in a performance that reverberates with hurt and disillusionment. It adds up to a vibrant record that both fans and programmers should find impossible to ignore."Taylor, Chuck. 'Billboard' Lee Ann Womack (November 3, 2001)

Ken Barnes of 'USA Today' listed the song as the number one single of 2001 and wrote, " A searing, chill-conjuring performance of a seething Buddy and Julie Miller tune by country's reigning female vocalist."Barnes, Ken. 'USA Today' Singling out the year's high, low notes (December 27, 2001)
