"Just One Look" was first released by Doris Troy (who co-wrote it) in 1963; it was her only Hot 100 hit. Cover versions by Linda Ronstadt and The Hollies also charted. There are surprisingly few video clips of the song, perhaps the later use of the coda in television commercials -- "Just one look/That's all it took" -- may have made it seem trite (which is too bad).
