Critical reception [edit]

Larry Movie from Billboard wrote, "Hot on the heels of 'Walkin' On The Sun' comes a wonderfully festive, anthemic rendition of State of war's pop/R&B chestnut. The song's original funk-flavored organisation proves perfectly accessible to Smash mouth's pop/ska manner. The heartfelt 'let's get along' tone of the lyrics remains as relevant every bit e'er to today'southward social and political climate, and the band'south rousing approach makes the bulletin all the more user-friendly to the pop masses. Another sure-fire multi-format hit from the album Fush Yu Mang."[14]
