The Washington Post deemed the album "hopelessly arch, impossibly infectious pop-punk."^[14] Trouser Press wrote that, "with [Amelia] Fletcher’s voice sweetly balancing Hue’s, 'Let the Good Times Roll' and 'The World Is Turning On' are fabulous confections, candy-pop mountains of ABBA-rock production and witty/silly lyrics."^[15] Robert Christgau considered the album to be "irony-pop gone hermeneutic—with nothing to say."^[13] The State likened it to "a '90s version of Sgt. Pepper or Atom Heart Mother."^[16]

Spin called the album "a desperately hummable, anxiously erotic masterpiece from a band with enough heart to make your head spin."^[17] Stereo Review noted that "these Brit youngsters—rigorous pop formalists with a cutesy streak more than a mile wide—apparently see themselves as the missing link between Neil Young and Edison Lighthouse... Few less auspicious concepts have ever been digitally preserved."^[18] The Village Voice labeled Million Seller "Carole King's Tapestry done by self-conscious sugarpop punks trying to rock and roll their way out of self-consciousness."^[19]

AllMusic called it "truly a classic pop record," writing: "Too polished and produced to garner alternative credibility, yet not the kind of record destined to get any mainstream exposure, Million Seller slipped between the cracks."^[12]
