Critical reception On its release, Music & Media noted: "Like the wind blows the leaves off the trees, Hawkins constantly pulls pop songs out of her bag." In a review of Whaler, Jim Farber of The Daily News wrote: "Tracks like 'Right Beside You' and 'Don't Don't Tell Me No' chirp happily along with coquettish flair and great hook appeal." Dave Younk of St. Cloud Times described the song as "excellent" with "the most incredible a cappella ending that seems to pleasantly go on forever".
