"Where's the Love" is a song by American pop rock band Hanson.[1] It was released on September 1, 1997, as the second single from the band's debut album, Middle of Nowhere (1997). Internationally, it was a successful follow-up to "MMMBop", reaching the top 10 in Australia, Canada, Finland, Hungary, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom. In the United States, "Where's the Love" did not chart on the Billboard Hot 100 due to rules regarding commercial releases, but it peaked at number 27 on the Billboard Hot 100 Airplay chart and number six on the Billboard Mainstream Top 40.

Critical reception


British magazine Music Week rated the song five out of five, picking it as Single of the Week. The reviewer added, "The siblings prove MMMBop was no fluke with this strong follow up, which shows their musicianship to greater effect than their debut. A second number one is a possibility."[2] Alan Jackson from The Times wrote, "The MMMBop brats are back with a similarly infectious and chartbound slice of kid-rock."[3]
