Phil Collins

Against All Odds (Take a Look at Me Now)

First released in 1984 · Album: Against All Odds: Music from the Original Motion Picture Soundtrack

Phil Collins recorded Against All Odds (Take a Look at Me Now) for the soundtrack to the 1984 film Against All Odds. It was issued as the soundtrack’s leading single, distinct from the songs on his preceding solo albums.

The recording begins with a restrained keyboard setting and builds around a vocal plea. As the drums and fuller accompaniment arrive, Collins moves from a close, conversational delivery towards a much more forceful final section.
