Jerry Smith from Music Week wrote, 'Gladys Knight beats all-comers for the dubious pleasure of singing the theme to the latest Bond movie, written and produced by Narada Michael Walden, and basically a pastiche of the best of the previous themes. It also peaked at number 79 on Canada's RPM 100 Singles chart but did not appear on the US Billboard Hot 100. In Europe, the song peaked atop the Swedish Singles Chart for eight weeks (four chart periods at the time) and reached the top five in seven other European countries.
