Chart performance

Critical reception

Billboard wrote about the song: "The long-anticipated follow-up to the massive "Feel What U Want" is a true rarity in dance music. It makes a pensive and poignant lyrical point without clouding the track's overall potential to inspire active twitchin' and twirlin'. Producers Rollo and Rob D. have created a grand disco/house arrangement that allows Kristine to shine like the star she deserves to be."[2]

Cash Box wrote: "Club fave Kristine W has a gorgeous, throaty voice and this lush, soulful dance track is already popular in New York City clubs through a Junior Vasquez remix, along with airplay on NY's WKTU and Philly's WlOQ."[3]

Music video

The music video of "One More Try" was directed by Lindy Heymann.[4]
