Reviewing for Record Mirror, Peter Jones described "I Ain't Got Time Anymore" as " a slow starter, through the verse with an inquiring sort of tone and then into a gentle-paced chorus, with voices tacked on... The performance is beyond criticism, as it usually is with Cliff. I guess his success is an ability to switch disc styles. Whatever it is this is destined for a very high chart placing".[4]
