Reception

Writing for Allmusic, critic Andy Kellman wrote, "Released in the U.K. by the Universal-affiliated Spectrum, Upside Down: The Collection is a somewhat arbitrary set of selections from Diana Ross' solo catalog. It hops from era to era — the first four songs span several years, for instance — and it doesn't have all the essential material (or even all the Top Ten R&B singles)."
