Please help me ID a song. I only know some of the lyrics...

Just one look, and I fell so hard
I'm in love... with you
(it might also be: "I need love... with you")

Just one look, that's all it took
Just one look

Other lyrics include: "I'll get you -- someday," and "without you, I'm
nothing, oh woah oh woah." I think there's also a verse that starts:
"Say you will..."

I'm guessing it's by a soul / R&B group from the mid-to-late-1960s. I
hear it all the time on a local oldies station. The only song called
"Just One Look" I can find is by a woman named Doris Troy, but this song
I'm thinking of doesn't sound like a woman singing. It sounds like a
group of guys. It was used in a Pepsi ad several years back.

I've tried looking up a lot of titles but nothing checks out. I'd
appreciate any solid leads.

Thanks.

Just One Look

Just one look, and I felt so all, all, all in love with you, oho, oho
I found out just how good it feel-eel-eels to have your love, oho, oho
Say you will, will be mi-i-ine forever and always, oho, oho
Just one look, and I knew, ooh, ooh that you were my only one - whoa oh

I thought I was dreaming, but I was wrong, yeah yeah
But I'm gonna keep on scheming till I can make you, make you my own

So you see, I really care-are-are, without you I'm nothing, oho, oho
Just one look, and I know-oh-oh I'll get you someday

That's all it took, yeah, just one look (repeats out)

Yes, this is a famous song introduced by Doris Troy, but later covered
successfully by Linda Rondstadt.

I believe it was also used in a Toyota TV commercial.

JUST ONE LOOK (Doris Payne & Gregory Carroll) (Artist: Doris Troy, Linda
Ronstadt)

Just one look and I fell so hard in love with you,
Oh oh I found out how good it feels to have your love.
Oh oh say you will, will be mine forever and always.
Oh oh just one look and I knew that you were my only one.
Oh I thought I was dreamin'; but I was wrong,
Oh yeah, yeah, ah, but I'm gonna keep on schemin'
Till I can make you, make you my own.
So you see I really care.
Without you I'm nothing, oh, oh, just one look,
And I know, I'll get you someday.
Oh, oh, just one look, that's all it took, yeah.
Just one look, that's all it took. Just one look, that's all took.

Probably The Hollies' cover.

JUST ONE LOOK
- written by G. Carroll and D. Payne
- #10 hit for Doris Troy in 1963
- also recorded by The Hollies and Linda Ronstadt although their
versions didn't make the Billboard Top 40 (USA)
- lyrics as recorded by Doris Troy

Just one look and I fell so hard

In love with you, oh-oh, oh-oh


I found out how good it feels

To have your love, oh-oh, oh-oh
Say you will, will be mine
Forever and always, oh-oh, oh-oh
Just one look and I knew
That you were my only one
Oh oh-oh oh!

I thought I was dreamin' but I was wrong, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, but-a, I'm gonna keep on schemin'
Till I can a-make you, make you my own!

So you see, I really care

Without you I'm nothin', oh-oh, oh-oh
Just one look and I know
I'll get you someday, oh-oh, oh-oh

Just one look, that's all it took
Just one look, that's all it took
Just one look, that's all it took

Please... That is an old Hollies song, probably done by others, called
"Just one Look"
