"Look Through My Eyes" is a song by English recording artist Phil Collins from the Brother Bear film soundtrack released in 2003 as the first single. It was later recorded by Everlife for the Bridge to Terabithia soundtrack and the Disneymania 4 album.^[1]

Critical reception

Allmusic said of song "That's not to say that middle-of-the-road pop... and future American Idol standards such as "Look Through My Eyes" are devoid of craftsmanship -- they positively radiate Hollywood gloss -- it's simply indicative of pop culture's voracious appetite for audio fast food.".^[2] Commonsensemedia noted that Brother Bear songs like Look Through My Eyes "could prop the soundtrack of any number of movies about a young boy's self-discovery" due to not specifically evoking Inuit culture.^[3]
