Background

[edit]

Eagleson stated that when he was finishing up Honkytonk Revival, he realized he hadn't included a love song on the album. He decided to include "She Don't Know", saying "the lyrics in it are what really hit me because my love language isn’t words," adding "I might clean the kitchen and I’ll think that’s romantic, in my mind. So, when I heard this, I just had to sing this one".[3] He said that he can "relate to this song on a very human level".[4]

Critical reception

[edit]

Cal Gratton of CJVR FM said that "She Don't Know" is a song that "gives a voice to all the quiet, stoic lovers," noting Eagleson's "smooth vocals" that "clearly articulates the love he holds for his wife".[2] Natalli Amato of The Boot referred to the song as a "heartfelt love song" that shows Eagleson is "on track to make his mark on mainstream country music". She stated that he "retains his originality" with a "stripped-down, classic country sound" that is also "reminiscent of Luke Combs".[5] Kim Hughes of Parton and Pearl stated that the track "boasts clever wordplay" and "[frames] Eagleson’s booming, bracing baritone in tender sentiment".[6] Nanci Dagg of Canadian Beats Media said that Eagleson "has pulled out all the stops for couples around the world to celebrate their love for one another" with the release of "She Don't Know".[4]
