"As always, Smith's voice is lustrous and versatile, swooping into the husky depths of the LP's darker, reflective passages and skylarking over the more upbeat moments, displaying a rich, androgynous athleticism ... It makes for a record full of healing sounds to pull you past sorrow".

"Albummet rummer en fin blanding af tempofyldte popsange, der skal virke som klubbet hjertesorgs-katarsis, og stille klaverballader, hvor Smith med blødende hjerte synger om et afsluttet forhold ... Blandingen af tempi og energiniveauer fungerer glimrende som en afspejling af op- og nedturene i et brud og bliver også bundet fint sammen af Smiths dramatiske stemme og følsomme levering. På den måde er 'Love Goes' et pragteksemplar af et breakup-album, der appellerer til hele følelsesregistret ... Men (...) 'Love Goes' kommer til at virke generisk, og hjerte/smerte-balladerne bliver overvældende svulstige i længden".

"For their third album, Love Goes, Sam Smith has focused inwards - reflecting, celebrating and commiserating ... Whilst Love Goes could have been an album containing only Smith's newer dance sound, the album does offer something for all Sam Smith fans, to mixed results".

"On their ninth album, the sense of crisis in Newman's songwriting is reflected in a more subdued musical tone (...), making for an LP that delivers its vivid emotional payoff in subtle gestures. . That doesn't mean there aren't big, splashy songs here ... Mostly, though, the mood has changed. Hot guitar charge takes a backseat to studio pastiche, a wistful saxophone shows up prominently, and the tempos tend toward the reflectively drifty. The results can be magisterial: "Last and Beautiful" has a lush, slo-mo grandeur, and on the lavishly pretty "Cat and Mouse With the Light," dappled electronics combine with a graceful jazz-folk melody to suggest 1960s Van Morrison playing a 1990s chillout room, as co-singer Neko Case turns the awkward chorus "It's like I can't stand that you love me" into sweet, surreptitious poetry".
