Critical reception[]

Alan Jones from British magazine Music Week commented, "Gabrielle has been away for some time and may have lost a little impetus but she certainly hasn't lost her talent, as her new single Give Me A Little More Time amply demonstrates. She sings like an angel against a slowed-down Sixties Stax-style backing, with punchy brass and silky strings underpinning her charismatic vocals."[1] Daisy & Havoc from the magazine's RM Dance Update rated the song five out of five, adding, "Gabrielle is back singing soul again, and old soul at that. She does it beautifully on the Album mix, which hums with some very old school atmosphere."[2]
