Look at Me

AMG Review of Look at Me

All Music Guide

The Moments Look at Me spawned two hits. The lush "Look at Me (I'm in Love)," arranged by Sammy Lowe, became their second biggest seller (as the Moments), reaching number one on the R&B charts in June of 1975 for one week; "Love on a Two Way Street" also reached number one on the R&B charts but held the spot for five weeks in May of 1970, and climbed to number three on the Pop charts. "Look at Me," lovely backing vocals and all, only managed a number 39 Pop showing. The carousing "Girls" sparked some confusion. Label credits listed the Moments and the Whatnauts, but few knew who the Whatnauts were, their vocals are minimal, and most assumed they were the Moments' band. Their French version of "Girls" is just as satisfying as the English version. "Dolly My Love," has an upbeat, poppy rhythm that hit in the United Kingdom but did absolutely nothing in the States. The haunting "Come Away with Me" featured an exotic harp and a flute; while the lulling ballad, "Dolly," was too drastic a change for Moments' fans to feel, and went unnoticed when released in May of 1975.
