"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]
