The critical reception for The Other Side of Down has been generally positive. Entertainment Weekly gave the album a B,praising Stomping the Roses and Elevator and stating that "[Archuleta's] vocals gleam with dewy naïveté". [13] Newsweek praised Archuleta for "finally acting his age" and especially liked the "playful bits" such as Something 'Bout Love,Elevator,and Parachutes &Airplanes. [13] Several Idol-related blogs also had high praises for the album such as Idol Wild which called it an "extremely strong,albeit safe album" and stated they were "blown away by how much David appears to have matured both emotionally and musically on this disc". [14] Stephen Thomas Erlewine of allmusic gave the album mixed reviews,stating "Archuleta certainly is a follower,not an innovator,but he's sharp enough to hire collaborators to coax comfortable commercial pop out of him -- something that is much more difficult than it appears." He gave the album 3 stars out of 5. [11]
