主流媒體評論
1. 滾石雜誌的Don Shewey評論道,雖然這首歌很容易讓人聯想到Pointer Sisters的He's So Shy, 'How Will I Know'仍然讓人難以抗拒地想跳舞。
2. Allmusic的Stephen Thomas Erlewine寫道,20多年來真正讓我印象深刻的是那些輕緩的歌曲,尤其是'How Will I Know'這首突破性的歌曲
3. 聽了惠特妮80年代的top 5歌曲之後, About.com的Steve Peake 給了這首歌一個積極的評價:Houston's boppy, peppy numbers tend to suffer from a particularly dated sound compared to her ballads, but this song still works remarkably well because of its lush melody throughout the verse, bridge and chorus.
休斯頓精力充沛的表演使這首歌深受聽眾喜愛,even if too much Whitney at once can sometimes promote an aural brain freeze.
Confection or not, this track helps Houston prove that she knows how to interpret, with great skill, tunes that display solid craftsmanship. This music was inescapable throughout 1985 and, really, all the way through the rest of the decade. And though I may grumble a bit even as I say it, it's not all that hard to see why.
4. 當評論這張專輯的豪華周年版時,Entertainment Weekly的Mikael Wood對這首歌的A capella版評論道, 這首歌展現了自動調音技術出現很久之前歌手(演唱)的精確性。
5.這首歌位列VH1's List of Greatest Songs of the 1980s第12位。
