Pop songwriting stars Barry and Greenwich had previously scored hits with songs such as "Be My Baby" and "Baby, I Love You" (The Ronettes), and "Then He Kissed Me" and "Da Doo Ron Ron" (The Crystals). The most commercially successful solo singer to be identified with the girl group sound, Lesley Gore hit the number one spot with her first release, "It's My Party," in 1963.[2] "Look of Love" was produced by Quincy Jones, who amped up the teenager's sound with double-tracked vocals and intricate backup vocals and horns. "Irresistibly melodic... it remains a classic archetype of female adolescent yearning."[2] In the US, "Look of Love" peaked at #27 on the Billboard charts.[3][4] The song has been covered by other artists, notably Pattie D'Arcy, Ellie Greenwich, and The Copycats.[5] References1. ^{{cite web|author=William Ruhlmann |url=http://allmusic.com/song/look-of-love-t551270 |title=Look of Love - Lesley Gore | Song Info |publisher=AllMusic |date= |accessdate=2016-09-27}} 2. ^1 {{cite web|author= |url=http://allmusic.com/artist/lesley-gore-p4387/biography |title=Lesley Gore | Biography, Albums, Streaming Links |publisher=AllMusic |date= |accessdate=2016-09-27}} 3. ^{{cite book |title= The Billboard Book of Top 40 Hits: Eighth Edition |last=Whitburn |first=Joel |authorlink=Joel Whitburn |year=2004 |publisher=Record Research |page=493}} 4. ^{{cite web|url={{BillboardURLbyName|artist=lesley gore|chart=all}}|title=Look of Love - Chart history|publisher=Billboard.com|accessdate=27 March 2012}} 5. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.elliegreenwich.com/musicography.htm |title=Archived copy |accessdate=2012-03-26 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20120327033800/http://elliegreenwich.com/musicography.htm |archivedate=2012-03-27 |df= }} External links
