Ten years later, "In All the Right Places" was also featured on Biography: The Greatest Hits (2003). In 2014, the soundtrack version of "In All the Right Places" was included on the deluxe 2CD + DVD re-release of So Natural (also on The Collection 1989–2003).[1][2] The song was nominated for Golden Raspberry Award for Worst Original Song.

Critical reception
In an retrospective review, Quentin Harrison from Albumism highlighted "In All the Right Places" as one of the album's "most significant compositions", noting that Stansfield "vocally burns the house" on the song.[4] Larry Flick from Billboard complimented it as a "shimmering pop ballad fueled by Stansfield's positively flawless vocal and an arrangement reminiscent of vintage compositions." He remarked that it "builds from a quiet place to a climax that will leave you with goosebumps."[5] Ken Capobianco from The Boston Globe declared it as a "solid new track" that "continues her successful streak of sultry pop soul."[6] Ben Thompson from The Independent felt "In All the Right Places" "has a nice Bond-theme sweep about it".[7] In his weekly UK chart commentary, James Masterton stated, "If ever a record was born to be No.1 this has to be it."[8]
Alan Jones from Music Week gave it four out of five and named it Pick of the Week, writing that "this typically soulful and sophisticated performance lacks the power of some of her previous singles".[9] R.S. Murthi from New Straits Times stated that Stansfield "acquits herself with style and grace" on tunes like "In All the Right Places".[10] James Hamilton from the RM Dance Update described it as an "attractive" and "swaying" ballad.[11] Damon Albarn and Alex James of Blur reviewed the song for Smash Hits, giving it five out of five. James said, "I think this is really good. She's really British. She's our Whitney Houston. It's so tasteful, understated and undramatic."[12]
Music video
A black-and-white music video was produced to promote the single, directed by English photographer Nick Brandt. It depicts Stansfield lying on a divan while she performs the song. In between, there are clips from the Indecent Proposal movie (also they are in black-and-white). In other scenes, the singer stands in the room and/or leans towards the wall. Later she is seen hovering in the air over the divan, while she sings. As the video ends, Stansfields again lies on the divan. It was later published on Stansfield's official YouTube channel in November 2009. The video has amassed more than 840,000 views as of December 2022.[13]
