: The song is a cornerstone of hip-hop history, having been sampled over 100 times , most famously by Tupac Shakur for "California Love" and "Thug Passion". One of Zapp's many classics

: The track is defined by Roger Troutman’s masterful use of the vocoder and talk box , which gives the vocals an "airy but fully programmed" quality. Reviewers note the "deep, deep bass hits" and unique "tom effect" on the drum track that cemented its place in the electro-funk canon.

: A major highlight of the song is the "pleading duet" between Shirley Murdock and Charlie Wilson (of The Gap Band), whose soulful, organic vocals provide a stark, effective contrast to the computerized talk box elements.

: While some reviewers felt The New Zapp IV U was a bit "so-so" or "dated" compared to the band's first three albums, "Computer Love" is consistently cited as the album's crowning achievement and its only true masterpiece. Fan Perspectives
