Critical reception
Rik Ambelle from 'Crawley News' described "Your Mirror" as "haunting"."HOT WIRE". 'Crawley News'. 30 October 1991. page 39. Retrieved 31 March 2020. Robbert Tilli from 'Music & Media' noted that it "showcases Hucknall's talent for writing soulful pop." Pop Rescue wrote that it's "stronger" than the previous songs on the 'Stars' album, "with its bass and piano hooks". They added that here the singer "takes a harder lyrical and vocal approach, almost menacing at times." Johnny Dee from 'Smash Hits' viewed it as a "great tune", and "dreamy and wafty". Another editor, Polly Birkbeck said it is "a droning slowie with a chorus of birdies chirping all through it."
