I'm sitting here listening to The Look of Love, and it's driving me absolutely nuts! This has to be one of the sexiest songs ever written, and without getting too personal, there's definitely a person who keeps entering my thoughts--ie, she's better than Ursulla Andress!--...wow...this song is incredible. And it's not even for a real Bond movie, too!


Thoughts anyone? On the song?

Agreed. It's a VERY sexy song. I love the whole CS soundtrack CD.

So who is the lucky lady? :)

A co-worker, who looks devastatingly just like my former fiance. Wow. I'm breaking out into a sweat thinking about this one.

Sounds like some lucky Wichitanian lady may soon enjoy the charms of our friend Bingo. :) If he keeps listening to Dusty anyway.

Oh, God, my life feels like an Alfred Hitchcock movie! She looks just like her! And that damned song! Gets me every time!

I'm more partial to ABC's other efforts like "Poison Arrow" or "The Night You Murdered Love." Actually "Be Near Me" has always been a favorite. Underrated considering "When Smokey Sings" was a bigger hit

But you're talking about something totally different.

Nevermind:o

Herb Alpert has a recent rendition of the song on his newest album Colours. And Yes, that is the same Herb Alpert from NSNA and Casino Royale.

He was also the "A" in A&M Records. The company that brought us artists like The Police, UB40, Janet Jackson and a host of others.

In addition, the terribly underwelming theme song to NSNA was sung by Lani Hall, Herb Albert's wife at the time. I don't know if they are still together though.
