Critical reception

[edit]

Jerry Smith from Music Week complimented the song as a "strong, sweeping ballad, where her soaring vocal talents are amply displayed among Michael Masser's dramatic and highly polished production."[4] Colin Irwin from Number One wrote, "'Miss You Like Crazy' is an immaculate pop record — shades of Donna Summer's alliance with S/A/W — and fully deserves its success."[5]
