Critical reception
Upon release, Cash Box described the song as a "seductive plea" and later in 1983 referred to it as an "overlooked single".[6][7] In a review of the album, Stereo Review commented "only "All Night with Me" rises above the level of mediocrity".[8] In a retrospective review, Bryan Buss of AllMusic was critical of the song, describing it as an "over-synthesized and borderline-boring ballad", which along with the album track "Lovin' You Baby", "are so mediocre, the album would be stronger if they had simply been omitted".[2]
