"Turn Around, Look at Me" is a song written by Jerry Capehart and Glen Campbell, though Campbell is not officially credited.[1]
In 1961, Glen Campbell released his version as a single. This was his first song to achieve national success by means of two hit parades in the United States, hitting position No.62 on the Billboard Hot 100 hit parades[2] and peaking at position No.15 on the Adult Contemporary hit parades. In Canada, this tune had reached No.9 in the CHUM Hit Parades.[3] This version included session drummer Earl Palmer on drums.[4]
The Lettermen version
In 1962, The Lettermen released their version as a single. It made it to No.5 on Billboard`s Bubbling Under Hot 100 Singles chart, but the b-side of the single, "How Is Julie?," became the bigger hit.
Bee Gees version
In 1964, while Bee Gees were still in Australia, they released their take on the song which did not chart.[5] It is also their fifth single, and was credited to "Barry Gibb and the Bee Gees".[6] It was also included on the group`s 1967 mop-up compilation Turn Around, Look at Us and the 1998 anthology of their Australian recordings Brilliant from Birth.[7]
Personnel
- Barry Gibb — lead vocals
- Robin Gibb — harmony and backing vocals
- Maurice Gibb — harmony and backing vocals
- Uncredited musicians — guitar, bass, drums, orchestra, chorus
The Vogues` version
In 1968, The Vogues released their remake as a single. This version was by far the most successful, reaching No.7 on the Hot 100[8] and No.3 on the Adult Contemporary chart.[9] In 2019 it was used in a Volkswagen commercial.[10]
