Upon release, George Sheppard said "With "Coming Home" and now "Hometown", it's pretty clear we've been on the road a lot these last few years. The two are almost companion pieces, with "Coming Home" about how much we love Australia and "Hometown" a love song about how no matter where in the world you are, if you're with the one you love then you are home."[2]
Melvin Peters from Nieuweplaat said it "sounds like a soundtrack to a new film".[3]
