==Critical response==
''[Billboard](/source/Billboard_(magazine))'' called the single "pure pop joy."<ref>{{Cite magazine |last=Flick |first=Larry |author-link=Larry Flick |date=March 12, 1994 |title=Single reviews: Pop |magazine=[Billboard](/source/Billboard_(magazine)) |volume=106 |issue=11 |page=53}}</ref> Ed Masley of ''[The Arizona Republic](/source/The_Arizona_Republic)'' listed the song as the Gin Blossom's 15th-best song on his list of the band's top 30 tracks, writing that the song "certainly holds up as a pure pop song, from its yearning chorus, as a call and response between Wilson (who wrote the song with Valenzuela) and his bandmates, to a brilliantly constructed lead guitar break."<ref name="az central">{{Cite web |last=Masley |first=Ed |title=30 best Gin Blossoms songs including 'Hey Jealousy,' 'Follow You Down' and 'Mrs. Rita' |url=https://www.azcentral.com/story/entertainment/music/2021/02/23/gin-blossoms-best-songs-tempe-arizona-rock-band/4541644001/ |access-date=April 7, 2021 |website=The Arizona Republic}}</ref>
