Critical reception

Bill Coleman from Billboard magazine wrote, "Soul-drenched popper should be embraced by several formats. From the underappreciated Foreign Affair album."[1] Greg Kot from Chicago Tribune felt "Look Me in the Heart" "bears an uncanny resemblance" to her earlier cover of Al Green's soul classic "Let's Stay Together".[2] In a retrospective review, Pop Rescue declared it as a "pretty standard little pop song", that "lacks anything more than another saxophone solo and some breathy synths as interest points."[3]
