Critical reception[]

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." Alan Jones from Music Week gave it three out of five. He noted that "she seems to be back on the right track with this smart urban/house song".[3] Tim Jeffery from the magazine's RM Dance Update stated, "Probably her best single since signing to a major", declaring it "a likely hit."[4] Another editor, James Hamilton deemed it an "attractive ditty".[5]
