"Turn My Head" is a song by alternative rock group Live, which was released as the second single from their 1997 album, "Secret Samadhi". It is a mid-tempo ballad, in contrast to the previous two singles from the album, which were more in line with the album's general hard-rock orientation.

The song was not released as a commercially purchasable single in the United States, and was therefore not eligible for the Billboard Hot 100. However, it reached the #45 position on the Billboard Hot 100 Airplay music chart, and also peaked at #3 on both the Billboard Modern Rock Tracks and Mainstream Rock Tracks charts.
