Paste{{'}}s Bud Scoppa wrote that the album's "most engaging tracks deftly blend nimble grooves, creamy choruses and vocal performances of immediacy and genuine feeling, attaining a sort of carefree soulfulness that recalls Van Morrison circa 'Brown Eyed Girl' (the seeming blueprint for the ecstatic 'Cosmic Girl') and Silk Degrees-era Boz Scaggs. If you've got a problem with that, so be it. But it works for me."{{Cite news |last=Scoppa |first=Bud |date=April 12, 2011 |title=Brett Dennen: Loverboy |url=https://www.pastemagazine.com/music/brett-dennen/brett-dennen-loverboy |access-date=February 19, 2025 |work=Paste}}
