What Kind of Love of "Billboard" magazine reviewed the song favorably, calling it the "first step in a major effort to immerse this rock-influenced country star into the pop and AC realm. She goes on to say that "twangy instrumentation a la Tom Petty and the late Roy Orbison (with whom this song was penned), combined with an appealing vocal, makes a strong argument for play at these and album rock formats." From "Life Is Messy" liner notes. "What Kind of Love" debuted at number 75 on the U.S. "Billboard" Hot Country Singles & Tracks for the week of June 27, 1992. Mike Walker
