Critical reception

"Stupid Little Things" received acclaim from music critics. Directlyrics called the single "excellent" and viewed it as Anastacia's best song since "Left Outside Alone".[3] MuuMuse praised the song as "an almighty return, and she sounds as defiant as ever. It's nice to hear those pipes wailing out from the speakers, yeah? Break out those tinted glasses — Anastacia’s back."[4] Popjustice rated the song eight out of 10.[5] MTV's Brad Stern included it in his "5 Must-Hear Pop Songs of the Week!", stating that it was a "return to form" from the "pop princess and proof that Anastacia's a true survivor", after her second battle with breast cancer.[6]
