"Look at Me" is a pop song written by British singer-songwriter Geri Halliwell and Paul Wilson and Andy Watkins PKA Absolute. It was released as the first single from her debut solo album Schizophonic. It peaked at number two in the United Kingdom, and at number three in both Australia and Canada. "Look at Me" was released in the United Kingdom on May 10, 1999. Since Halliwell had chosen "Look at Me" as the first single from Schizophonic and because she felt as though the song was going to return her to the mainstream market, it was released the same week as Boyzone's "You Needed Me". In early 1999, Boyzone were at the height of their success with five UK number-ones, however, Halliwell was confident that "Look at Me" would reach number-one. Although more transactions were made of the "Look at Me" single, two CD singles of "You Needed Me" were released in order for fans to purchase both and ensure that Boyzone made it to the number-one position. "Look at Me" entered the UK Singles Chart at number two; it was only seven-hundred copies behind Boyzone's "You Needed Me".[2] Halliwell was disappointed with the outcome of the chart performance for "Look at Me" since she had believed that it would reach number one. She had also feared that her career was to end six months following the release of the single. However, Halliwell would earn her first UK number-one single with "Mi Chico Latino". Look At Me went on to sell 330,000 copies in the United Kingdom alone being certified Gold by the BPI and over a million worldwide.
The music video for "Look at Me" was directed by Vaughan Arnell and filmed in Prague, Czech Republic. The music video features four versions of Halliwell: a vamp, a bitch, a bride, and a sister. Most of the music video is black and white, except in one scene in the middle of the video, during the funeral of Ginger Spice, Halliwell was seen with red hair (a wig), blonde highlights and a red thorn crown. In the last part, Halliwell and male dancers are dancing on some stairs and then in front of a fountain. At the end of the video there is a message saying Geri's Back! with a picture of a nude Geri and ends with a G.
Lyric:
Good looking, bad tasting
Full bodied, butt wasted
Loose living, tight fitting
What you see ainÂt what you are getting
Big make up, little break up
She wants it, heÂs got it
Cold blooded, hot gossip
Superficial expectations
Look at me, you can take it all
Because this face is free
Maybe next time use your eyes and look at me
IÂm a drama queen if thatÂs your thing
Baby, I can even do reality
Fake honey, real plastic
Stupid cupid, fantastic
Queer thinking, straight talking
What you see ainÂt what you are getting
Fast loving, slow moving
No rhythm but IÂm grooving
Old feeling, new beginning
Superficial expectations
Look at me, you can take it all
Because this face is free
Maybe next time use your eyes and look at me
IÂm a drama queen if thatÂs your thing
Baby, I can even do reality
ThatÂs me
Ha, ha, ha, ha
Sometimes I donÂt recognize my own face
I look inside my eyes and find disgrace
My little white lies tell a story
I see it all, it has no glory
Look at me, you can take it all
Because this face is free
Maybe next time use your eyes and look at me
IÂm a drama queen if thatÂs your thing
Baby, I can even do reality
Come on and look at me
This face is free, IÂm your fantasy
So whoÂd you wanna be, not what you see
IÂm a drama queen if thatÂs your thing
Come on and look at me, IÂm your fantasy
This face is free
