Critical reception

Template:Music ratings Rolling Stone, in a retrospective, praised "You and I", writing that "James unleashed his brash 'punk-funk' movement with this gloriously strutting single, which boasted a colossal synth-bass groove, James' boa-tossing vocal panache and double-entendres directed at his ex-wife."[4]
