Larry Flick from Billboard described "You Never Love the Same Way Twice" as "slammin'",[1] and a "disco bauble that tingles with lush strings and a vocal that is commanding without flying out of control."[2] He complimented Rozalla's voice as a "warm, soulful quality that brings this disco-drenched house mover to vibrant life." He concluded with that "this could be the start of Rozalla's long-deserved ascension into the pop spotlight." Music writer James Masterton said it is "a far more impressive piece of pop dance" than "This Time I Found Love".[3] Alan Jones from Music Week rated it three out of five, and noted that "she seems to be back on the right track with this smart urban/house song".[4] Tim Jeffery from the magazine's RM Dance Update stated, "Probably her best single since signing to a major", declaring it "a likely hit."[5] Another editor, James Hamilton deemed it an "attractive ditty".[6]
A music video was produced to promote the single. It was published on YouTube in December 2014.[7]
