Critical reception

[edit]

Allmusic said of song "That's not to say that middle-of-the-road pop... and future American Idol standards such as "Look Through My Eyes" are devoid of craftsmanship -- they positively radiate Hollywood gloss -- it's simply indicative of pop culture's voracious appetite for audio fast food.".[2] Commonsensemedia noted that Brother Bear songs like Look Through My Eyes "could prop the soundtrack of any number of movies about a young boy's self-discovery" due to not specifically evoking Inuit culture.[3]
