Something in Your Eyes

Something in Your Eyes is a song from Richard Carpenter's debut solo album, Time. It reportedly was to have been the lead single off what would have been the Carpenters' follow-up to their 1981 album Made in America; however, Karen Carpenter died before having had the opportunity to lay down a vocal track (although, according to Richard's album notes, Karen had been very excited and looking forward to recording the song). Richard ultimately chose Dusty Springfield to record the vocal in conjunction with his arrangement, backing vocals and instrumentation. It peaked at #12 on the Adult Contemporary chart.

In 2008, the song was released and revived by Philippine singer Claire de la Fuente as her comeback single from the album Something in Your Eyes.

Famous quotes containing the word eyes:

    There was a look in the eyes of the Brangwens as if they were expecting something unknown, about which they were eager. They had that air of readiness for what would come to them, a kind of surety, an expectancy, the look of an inheritor.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
