Critical reception
Pan-European magazine Music & Media stated, "With this catchy swingbeat single the Eastender has a flying start."[2] Alan Jones from Music Week wrote, "The former EastEnders star turns in an acceptable performance on a mid-tempo chugger that is pleasant but unexceptional. Something of a heart throb, Maguire is to undertake a massive promotional tour in support, so expect this to chart."[5] Mark Frith from Smash Hits gave "Someone to Love" a score of four out of five, saying, "First thing to say, he has a good little voice, our Sean. Second thing to say, he has a bit of a good tune too — not ground-breaking by any means, but a solid, good pop song that will surprise a lot of people. And if he's willing to take a few risks with his next few singles, his future could be very bright indeed."[1]
