A Minute... is the second extended play (EP) by British singer and songwriter Myles Smith. It was released on 8 November 2024 by It's Okay to Feel and Sony Music Entertainment UK.

| Source | Rating |
| AllMusic | |
| Clash | 7/10[3] |
| Industry Me | 8/10[4] |
Timothy Monger from AllMusic said "A Minute... blends lush pop production with poignant folk that recalls U.K. forebears like Ed Sheeran, Marcus Mumford and even a bit of Coldplay."[2]
Robin Murray from Clash said "A Minute... ably builds on his debut, sketching out a persona that feels fresh but also recognisable."[3]
Jane Sophia from Industry Me said "The music here is so naturally written that you can sing along from the first listen, and the melodies are easy enough that you can do exactly that. It is a testament to male emotion, encouraging feeling and maturity. The incredible writing of Myles Smith takes your heart in hand and shows you the world with the other."[4]
Amal AlTauqi from Pause Magazine said "As a whole, A Minute... is a musical journey that pulls you into the complexities of human connection—those delicate, sometimes painful, but always beautiful intersections where we grow, change, and reflect."[1]
