Critical reception
In his weekly UK chart commentary, James Masterton wrote, "The girl and her eyepatch followup the summer's big No.1 "Dreams" with a track slightly more representative of her usual output and without the novelty value maybe not quite as big a hit." Push from Melody Maker said, "Not a patch on 'Dreams'." Andy Beevers from Music Week gave the song four out of five, adding, "How do you follow up a debut hit as massive as "Dreams"? Gabrielle wisely decides to stick to pretty much the same formula, delivering a distinctively sung, dead catchy song". He also noted, "However, this is no note-for-note rerun – the song is less overtly poppy than "Dreams" and Steve Jervier's production gives it a street soul edge."Tim Jeffery from the Record Mirror Dance Update described "Going Nowhere" as "a slow, soulful song aimed at the radio", and "not as innovative as "Dreams" but sure to be another hit." Tom Doyle from Smash Hits gave it two out of five, saying that "it's not nearly as catchy" as her first single.
