The song featured in "Mojo"s 1997 list "Psychedelia: The 100 Greatest Classics", where Jon Savage described it as an "aural pleasure" that included "mad brass and handclaps so luscious that they sound like the chewing of a thousand cows". In July 2001, "Uncut" placed the song at number 43 on its list of "The 50 Greatest Beatles Tracks". Five year later, "Mojo" ranked it 85th on the magazine's list of "The 101 Greatest Beatles Songs". Writing for the website Ultimate Classic Rock, Dave Swanson considers "It's All Too Much" to be "one of the band's most captivating works from the psychedelic era, and one of the Beatles' great lost songs". In 2012, it was included on the iTunes compilation album "Tomorrow Never Knows", which the band's website described as a collection of "the Beatles' most influential rock songs". In 2018, the music staff of "Time Out London" ranked it at number 31 on their list of the best Beatles songs.
