Critical reception

"We Love You" was popular among WLIR listeners, who voted it "Screamer of the Week". Following its US-wide release, the track was included in KROQ's "Top 106.7 Songs of 1987". AllMusic critic Dave Thompson later wrote that "We Love You" had "all the makings of a smash [hit]", while praising its instrumentation and "splendidly anthemic chorus". He also observed "barely veiled lyrics with anti-militaristic intent".
