"Turn My Head" is a song by alternative rock group Live, which was released as a single from their 1997 album, Secret Samadhi. In contrast to the hard-rock of most of the album, the song is slower-paced and features a string section.
The song was not released as single in the US, but it still received significant airplay, reaching No. 45 on the Billboard Hot 100 Airplay chart, and No. 3 on both the Modern Rock Tracks and Mainstream Rock Tracks charts. [2]
Lyrics by Ed Kowalczyk, music by Live:
Two official music videos were created for the song. The first featured the band performing the song and was directed by Mary Lambert. [3] The second video was directed by Jake Scott and was inspired by the paintings of John Register. [4] Both videos were included on the DVD release of Live's compilation, Awake: The Best of Live.
"Turn My Head" reached N0. 16 in Canada, [5] No. 36 in Austria, No. 47 in Australia and No. 67 in the Netherlands. [6]
