"Musically, things don't go much better, occasionally sliding into cheesy, cabaret-lite renditions from a band that looks like a casting call for session player stereotypes. Two of the tracks on the original broadcast, along with two more of the bonus tracks on the DVD, come from Hours -, not many fans' first choice. Two of the extra tracks, "Always Crashing in the Same Car" and "I Can't Read", provide a slightly more-well rounded look at his career, but none come with additional commentary, making them four modest live performances, nothing else".

"As of this writing, six years have passed since David Bowie released an album of new material, 2003's Reality. Since then, Bowie survived a heart attack and contribution to a Scarlett Johansson album. Given that this performance occurred in 1999 and is of underwhelming quality, it is difficult to see this release as anything but an attempted cash-in for his former label Virgin".

"David Bowie sluttede på toppen - med albummet 'Blackstar' (2016) og udødelige numre som 'Lazarus' og 'I Can't Give Everything Away' ... Rockstjernen døde - med vanlig sans for iscenesættelse - to dage efter udgivelsen, men det har langtfra sat en stopper for strømmen af plader fra hans hånd (...) Den aktuelle 'Vh1 Storytellers' byder - som titlen antyder - på talrige anekdoter, og det er da sympatisk nok ... Der er blevet plads til fine liveversioner af numre som 'Life On Mars?', 'Rebel Rebel' og 'China Girl', men man kan ikke lade være med at fantasere om, hvilke sange der ellers kunne være blevet plads til, hvis ikke der skulle snakkes så meget".
