Critical reception
Upon its release as single, Music & Media described the song as a "lushly orchestrated ballad".[2] David Quantick of NME criticized it as "gourmet toss ordinaire" and "a weedy 'Time After Time' clone ballad". He was more favorable towards the version of "Live Your Life Be Free which appears as a B-side on the single, describing it as "a belting verse which suggests Carlisle could be the punk rock Suzi Quatro of the 21st century".[3] In a retrospective review of Live Your Life Be Free, Justin Kantor of AllMusic noted the song's "elegant arrangement" and "timeless melody", the latter of which he considered "the kind that made earlier hits like "Heaven Is a Place on Earth" and "Circle in the Sand" mainstays on radio long after their chart runs."[4]
