"Have a Look" is the debut single of Australian singer-songwriter Vanessa Amorosi, released in July 1999. The track was co-written by Amorosi with Australian Idol judge Mark Holden and Shaun Imrei, and it was produced by Steve Mac.[1][2] The song reached No. 13 on the Australian Singles Chart and achieved gold status in seven weeks.[2]

With a limited budget, its Australian video clip features Amorosi travelling around the Sydney train network and walking around Bondi Junction and Liverpool plaza shopping complex.[3] "Have a Look" was later included on Amorosi's debut album, The Power, in 2000 and was released as the album's third European single the following year, reaching the top 75 in Germany and Switzerland.
