Look Around bears a visceral sentimentality and a depth of
emotional expression delivered through poignant orchestration,
heartbreaking lyrical content, and outstanding vocal performance.
It is a lovely ballad. The orchestration is perfect – organized and
balanced wile lending a very grand sort of gravity to the song. The
cascading piano part that begins at 2:21 is sublime beneath Ms.
Joy’s strong vocals. The use of the song’s melody in the
instrumentation both at the beginning and during the interludes
gives a strong sense of classical drama and narrative cohesion to
the sound – really well done. Melodically, Look Around is highly
memorable and emotionally evocative – which is exactly what a
composition of this nature needs. Jon Wright, Radio Airplay
