[4] Deconstruction reviewed both their views, but did not promote any them and released "Some Kind of Bliss" as the lead single; "Limbo" appeared as its b-side.

[5][6] In January 1998, "Too Far", alongside five other album tracks, were included on an exclusive cassette tape and given to Deconstruction members to select their opinion on which should be the third single; "Too Far" lost respectively to "Breathe".

[15] Sarah Smith from FasterLouder.com highlighted the song as an album stand out and praised Minogue's experimentation on the "spoken word" effect.

[18] Robin Bresnek from Melody Maker had discussed their parent review, and said that "Too Far" and "Drunk" were immediate highlights for Minogue showing her "schizophrenic self-disgust" nature that "spins dizzily in the shadow of fluttering heartbeats and inspired rushes of sound.

"[19] Sam Upton from Select magazine was particularly positive towards the track, saying "'Too Far' sets out the stall perfectly with beats that want to be jungle when they grow up and Kylie slipping between half-rap and the usual sensual breathing's.

[20] Larry Flick from Billboard commented "From the haunting, almost unsettling drum'n'bass undertow of the set's lead cut, "Too Far," it's clear that the days of kewpie-doll ditties like "The Loco-Motion" and "Better the Devil You Know" have dissolved into a gratefully distant memory.

"[21] Additionally, the Brothers in Rhythm remix of "Too Far" received favourable reviews from most music critics, and became popular with clubs and fans alike.

Reviewing Mixes, Charlie Porter from Amazon.co.uk was positive towards the remix, stating "Brothers in Rhythm work their slinky magic on "Too Far", and further highlighted it as a stand out track.
