“Looking Through Your Eyes”

A part of an animated film’s soundtrack and her third album, LeAnn Rimes’ “Looking Through Your Eyes” was released on the early part of March 1998. It was first serviced as the lead single of the soundtrack for “Quest of Camelot”, an animated feature that was released on the same year. A few months later, the track was also seen on Rimes’ third album called “Sitting on the top of the World”. The song remains as one of the singer’s most popular tunes. It peaked at number four on the country music charts and crossed over to rank at number 18 on Billboard’s Hot 100 chart.

Lyrically, “Looking Through Your Eyes” is a song about two lovers and their intense feeling of love and admiration to each other. Rimes sings through each lyric depicting how their love has affected them in the most beautiful way possible. During the song, it is described how love changes the perspective of a person. The world becomes more beautiful, stars shine brighter, the night becomes less frightful, and life generally becomes a whole lot better when you have found and you are with the one you love. The power of love is so immense that it took them by surprise and it was they see as they look through each other’s eyes. The uplifting and reinforcing depiction of love totally fits and adds a more romantic mood to the film as well as the story between the main characters.

It serves as a testament of undying love to that person who has passed away. The song reminds them of how much love was there and will be in their hearts although they may be apart now. With the lyrical content, people during such events are calmed down and are helped to have a more positive perspective on such unfortunate even. “Looking Through Your Eyes” helps people who have been departed by the special someone move on in such a way that the love that they have for them will remain until the end of time.
