When I Look at You

About When I Look at You

"When I Look at You" is a song by American singer-songwriter and actress Miley Cyrus. The song was written by Hillary Lindsey and John Shanks, and produced by Shanks. It was released on February 16, 2010 by Hollywood Records as the second and final single from Cyrus' first EP, The Time of Our Lives (2009). "When I Look at You" was featured on the 2010 romantic-drama film The Last Song and its corresponding soundtrack, being used to promote the film. The song contains an instrumentation primarily based on piano, while its lyrics speak of a dream boy. "When I Look at You" received average to mixed critical reception and was unable to duplicate the commercial success of Cyrus' previous single, "Party in the U. S. A." "When I Look at You" peaked at number 16 on the Billboard Hot 100 and charted within the top 30 on charts in Australia, Canada, and New Zealand. The song's accompanying music video was directed by Adam Shankman. It features Cyrus playing a grand piano throughout several settings, including a beach and forest. Two other versions of the video were released: one replacing several scenes with clips from The Last Song and another featuring Bisbal. The song was included on her first world tour, the Wonder World Tour (2009). more »
