Critical reception



Yahoo's 'Dotmusic' gave "So High" a mixed review. They stated, "New kid on the block Jamelia swings into town with this slice of R&B which never manages to rise above the mediocre. She can sing, the beats roll, the bass tones swing, the chords funk hey, you might even find your head nodding Flat Eric style! It's just we've heard this a 1000 times before and when the chorus slips into "So high, So high...You're making me..." things take a nosedive. It's a shame as Jamelia's got a great voice and with the right production could lift a tune.[https://www.webcitation.org/628fy5ZNT?url=http://web.archive.org/web/20060928154846/http://uk.launch.yahoo.com/l_reviews_s/10226.html LAUNCH, Music on Yahoo!
