Reception
Scandipop reviewed the song as; "Amazing, Amazing, Amazing" They added, "...it’s them returning to the clubland from which they came. Squeaky voiced Lene laments a man’s shortcomings in the bedroom department"

Luis Gonzalez of Album Confessions said; “Like A Robot”, a raunchy song that ultimately deals with sex and alcohol. Aqua has forgotten all the past metaphors and innuendos and have decided to be up front with their naughty message. The production is great; the lyrics are fun and get lodged in your brain easily especially the golden chorus.

Jon O'Brien of Allmusic, in a review of Megalomania, said; ""Like a Robot" shows that the band's tongue-in-cheek innuendos have disappointingly been replaced by straightforward explicitness". "

Gaffa's Signe Bønsvig Wehding considered the song to be "among the best tracks on the album", along with "Playmate To Jesus", "Dirty Little Pop Song" and "Sucker For A Superstar"".

The Border Mail gave the album a negative review, but complimented "Like A Robot" for being 'punchy'.
