Athena Serrano from MTV noted that "Bennett doesn't fail to deliver his strong vocals even at 95." At The Arts Desk, Sebastian Scotney highlighted the track for its "genuinely touching moment" where "Bennett finds that authentically urgent and passionate vocal colour he had in tracks such as " A Child is Born" or " Make Someone Happy" on the classic album Together Again with Bill Evans." While reviewing the album, Robin Murray of Clash wrote that " Love For Sale hinges on the neat chemistry between the two, their nimble performances fuelling a later turn on 'I Get A Kick Out Of You'." Music video Alexis Petridis of The Guardian thought the song was evidence that Bennett's health condition didn't seem to affect the chemistry between the duo. Helen Brown of The Independent thought the song revolves around "the mutual appreciation" of the pair for each other, "on which Bennett nails the dizzying internal rhyme scheme of lines such as: 'Flying too high with some girl in the sky is my idea of nothing to do.'" Neil McCormick of The Daily Telegraph found Gaga and Bennett sounding the happiest on the album when they are "diving into the witty wordplay" of "I Get a Kick Out of You" and " You're the Top". Heran Mamo of Billboard opined that while Gaga's "portion of the first verse does anything but leave us totally cold", Bennett's "beautifully raspy vocals leave his counterpart emotional", and thought that "the full band breathes new life into Cole Porter's classic tune". Rolling Stone 's Jon Blistein described the song as "delightfully classic", and thought that "the two vocalists exude plenty of chemistry". They are backed by "jaunty piano" at the beginning of the track, with Gaga slowly starting the song with the line "My story is much too sad to be told, but practically everything leads me totally cold." Bennett then picks up with "The only exception I know is the case." line, and when he says “Then, I see your fabulous face", Gaga jokingly asks Bennett, "Are you talking about me?" The big band arrangement then commences, and accompanies the two for the rest of the song. The duo's version is "a campy take" on "I Get a Kick Out of You". ![]() ![]() AARP the Magazine revealed that Bennett was a "considerably more muted presence during the recording of the new album with Gaga", as he was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease in 2016, before the sessions began. The recording sessions for the song took place at Electric Lady Studios in downtown New York City. It was released as the first single from the album on August 3, 2021, to digital retailers. Tony Bennett and Lady Gaga recorded a version of the song for their second collaborative album, Love for Sale.
