"Reach Out" is a song from Take That's fourth album, Beautiful World , released as the album's fourth single on 22 June 2007. Reach Out was released exclusively in Europe, as an alternative to the British-only single "I'd Wait for Life".
It performed well across Europe, peaking inside the top twenty in the Danish charts and narrowly missing the top ten in the Italian charts, peaking at number 11.

Alexis Petridis from The Guardian described the song as a "dazzingly effective pop song." [4] AllMusic mentioned that the uptempo track showed the group "were obviously enjoying every minute of the comeback". [5]
