Critical reception

Andy Kellman from AllMusic wrote that "Come into My Life" is "easily the best surrogate, low-budget Loose Ends song recorded".[1] The American magazine Billboard noted that the singer "weaves seductive passages that spin their magic" on the track. The reviewer added, "Sims grasps dance dynamics and club appeal better than most and consistently creates ear-fetching grooves."[2] James Hamilton from Music Week's RM Dance Update described it as a "sweetly warbled early Eighties style soul swayer".[3]
