Critical reception

Stephen Thomas Erlewine rated the album 3.5 out of 5 stars. His review noted more modern influences in the production and lyrics, and praised Nichols' "easy touch" on the songs. He concluded his review by stating that "He's an old-fashioned guy who is happy living in the modern world, and that's why Never Gets Old is so appealing: It feels familiar yet fresh."[1]
