Reception

Pan-European magazine Music & Media described "Nothing Can Come Between Us" as "another brooding, percussion-oriented track in a velvety production. Just typical Sade."[1] Frank Guan of Vulture stated, "Truer words have never been sung than 'In the middle of the madness, hold on.' Stuart Matthewman's best impression of funk guitar adds just the right amount of spice to the duet."[2]
