James E. Perone wrote in "The Sound of Stevie Wonder: His Words and Music" that "it anticipates the regularly 6-minutes-plus  songs of his next album, "Conversation Peace"" and that it "is not one of Wonder's best-remembered compositions and recordings, but it does feature a fine funky, blues-infused lead vocal melody in the verses". In a review of the album, Stephen Thomas Erlewine of Allmusic wrote that "While the keyboard funk of 'Chemical Love,' 'Gotta Have You,' and 'Queen in the Black' doesn't sound new, it does sound alive, which is better than Wonder has sounded in years." A review in "Musician" was less favorable, calling it "generic, repetitive 70s-style funk". B-side. The B -side, Feeding off the Love of the Land which featured in the films end credits was written during the Fulfillingness First Finale sessions but was shelved. It was updated with strings before its release. Track listing. Per Discogs.
