Reception
Digital Spy gave the song 3/5 stars and a less postive rating than Stone Cold Sober:
- 'New York', Faith's follow-up, is a rather more straightforward offering than its predecessor. The lyrics tell the tale of a girl who loses a guy to "another lady", but sadly for Paloma the lass in question isn't a flesh-and-blood adversary, but actually the Big Apple. It's a much bigger target of course, but one that's harder to hit with a swinging vintage handbag. Despite its sweeping strings and soaring vocals, 'New York' is a shade unremarkable compared to her debut, but it still manages to whet the appetite for Faith's upcoming album.[2]
BBC chart blog gave the song a more postive review than her previous single and rewarded it with 3 stars.[3]
