Pitchfork named "Moments in Love" as Art of Noise's "masterwork", praising it as "an elegant New Age ode to romance embellished with fleet-footed strings and an echoing vocal sample that buries itself deep into your brain." The song played during Madonna's 1985 wedding to Sean Penn as they walked down the aisle. According to Trevor Horn, rapper Rakim told him that his favorite song of Horn's was "Moments in Love".

The song has been sampled several times, including by J Dilla, Charli XCX, Lil Wayne and Drake.
