On other US charts, the song went to #50 on the 'Billboard' Hot 100 and #83 on the 'Billboard' soul singles chart.
Critical reception
Jose F. Promis from AllMusic described "Just a Touch of Love" as "a sleek, elegant, straight-up house jam sans rap". Randy Clark and Bryan DeVaney from 'Cashbox' stated that it "has the commercial/dance sound that is in much demand and has already been proven to be successful." Pan-European magazine 'Music & Media' commented, "More dance from American groove masters C&C. Just a touch of rap and a little bit of scratching are covered in soulful and meaty vocals. Slightly reminiscent of the '70s, there are echoes of Chic, among others." Marc Andrews from 'Smash Hits' wrote, "Here the C&Cs shamelessly steal large portions from Mads' most brilliant effort ["Vogue"] but most significantly, Freedom Williams doesn't even get a rap look-in. There's just Zelma with her dangerously over-ironed tresses screeching her lungs out."
