Critical reception

An editor from Billboard stated that Stansfield "has a field day with meatier songs", like "Time to Make You Mine".[3] Steve Morse from The Boston Globe noted that "her extraordinary elastic voice pledges her love", describing it as "erotic".[4] DeVaney and Clark from Cashbox declared it as a "sexy, make-love" song.[5] Rufer & Fell from the Gavin Report described it as "an intimate performance of a song about an obsession for possession. A cool track."[6] A reviewer from Liverpool Echo remarked that the singer "gets slow and soulful with a passionate vocal that sounds as if she's learned a few lessons in romancing from her hero Barry White."[7] Scott Sterling from The Michigan Daily declared it as a "dreamy" song, adding that it "showcases Stansfield's gorgeous voice at its best. Mixed right up front, it sounds like she's whispering her proclamations of love inches from your ear."[8] Pan-European magazine Music & Media wrote that "it tastes like candy again, most of all the softly-spoken intermezzo. Dictionaries all around the world should replace the word "sensual" with "Stansfield"."[9]

Alan Jones from

Sun-Sentinel declared it as "a song many women have lived".[14] Mike Joyce from The Washington Post felt that "Stansfield can at least be counted on to invest them with plenty of power and melismatic panache, making "Time to Make You Mine" and a few other R&B updates sure-fire radio fare."[15]

Remixes

On 21 June 1992,

Brand New Heavies. Both remixes were created for the US release of "Time to Make You Mine". However, this single release plan was abandoned, as Stansfield recorded her new song for The Bodyguard, "Someday (I'm Coming Back)
".
