The single received a positive reception upon its release. [[Cashbox (magazine)|''Cashbox'']] reviewed the single in early August and stated that "Reeves, who's been well represented on both the pop and country charts for a number of years now, can have one of his biggest two-market hits to date in 'I'm Gonna Change Everything.' It’s a soft beat cha cha heartbreaker that Reeves dual-tracks in grade 'A' fashion. They noted that "Jim's at his mellow-toned best on the superb, crying towel lilter, 'Pride Goes Before A Fall,'" calling it a "Great pairing."{{Cite magazine |last= Albert |first= George |date=August 4, 1962 |title=Record Reviews: ''The Cashbox Pick of the Week'' |url=https://www.worldradiohistory.com/Archive-All-Music/Cash-Box/60s/1962/CB-1962-08-04.pdf |magazine=[[Cash Box|Cashbox]] |issue=48 |volume=XXIII |page=8 |access-date=April 19, 2026 |via=worldradiohistory.com}} [[Billboard (magazine)|''Billboard'']] believed that the "Reeves' velvet pipes are in fine form again on these two sides." They said, "First up is a smart piece of material, done in a more uptempo style." They called the flip a "mellow [[ballad]] effort with a fine teaming of voices and instruments behind Reeves' vocal," noting "Either can move."
