Critical reception

Dave Obee from Calgary Herald wrote, "Taylor Dayne is full of life, and as she sings she bites the heads off nails. She growls. Close your eyes, you can see her defiant strut. She even makes a Barry White song sound masculine." Greg Sandow from Entertainment Weekly called Soul Dancing a "killer pop album". He added, "Can’t fault her choice of material; these are crisp, focused, hook-filled pop songs, every one of them a likely radio hit."
Connie Johnson of the Los Angeles Times remarked "On this 11-song collection, Dayne's exaggerated enunciation and overblown, diva-style soulfulness have never been put to finer use".
Leonard Pitts Jr. of the Miami Herald wrote, "Soul Dancing is the one thing that few records are these days: solid. Solid vocalist. Solid songs. Solid production...Skip the hype. Taylor Dayne makes crisp, tuneful pop. Perfect summertime ear candy. And really, now, what more do you need?"
