It was recorded for the soundtrack to the 1984 film of the same name. It is a power ballad in which its protagonist implores an ex-lover to "take a look at me now", knowing that reconciliation is "against all odds" while considering it worth trying. The single, while it reached number two in the United Kingdom, peaked at number one on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100 in the United States, the first of seven US number ones for Collins in his solo career.〔Taylor, Chuck.

The song has twice reached number one in the UK singles chart: the pairing of Mariah Carey and boyband Westlife, in September 2000, and then again by Steve Brookstein, the first winner of ''The X Factor'', in January 2005. ==Phil Collins version== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Against All Odds (Take a Look at Me Now)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
