Most critics found "It's Not Over" to be catchy and a solid first single. Billboard magazine called "It's Not Over" a "tight, focused and ready to rock your face off" single that "overflows with harmonies and axe leads that suck you in out of the box. Entertainment Weekly found the song "ridiculously catchy". Daniel Wolfe of About.com said the band does "a great job of telling the story of a relationship gone wrong," ultimately giving the song three and a half out of five stars. There has been some talk of the single's similarity to the Fuel's song, "Hemorrhage (In My Hands)", which Chris Daughtry performed on American Idol.
On December 6, 2007, the song was nominated for Best Rock Song and Best Rock Performance By A Duo Or Group With Vocals for the 50th Annual Grammy Awards.
