This is a complete discography of recording artist Sheena Easton, a Scottish singer with a discography that consists of 15 studio albums and 16 compilation albums. Easton released her debut album, Take My Time, in 1980, and the single "Morning Train (9 to 5)" reached number 12 on the Billboard Year-End Hot 100 in 1981. Her success continued primarily through the 1980s, where Easton garnered 5 Gold and 1 Platinum album certifications in the United States, with 7 Gold singles and 20 US Top 40 singles as well as 7 US Top Ten singles. Whilst her success was somewhat limited in her native Scotland and the United Kingdom, she scored one number one album in the United States on the Billboard Hot 100 between 1981 and 1991.

Her first two singles, "Modern Girl" and "9 to 5" both entered the top ten of the UK Singles Chart simultaneously. She became one of the most successful British female recording artists of the 1980s. Easton became the first and only recording artist in Billboard history to have a top five hit on each of Billboard's primary singles charts: "Morning Train (Nine to Five)" (Pop and Adult Contemporary), "We've Got Tonight" with Kenny Rogers (Country and Adult Contemporary) and "Sugar Walls" (R&B and Dance).

Easton's other hit singles include the James Bond theme "For Your Eyes Only", "You Could Have Been with Me", "Telefone (Long Distance Love Affair)", "Almost Over You", "Strut", "U Got the Look" and "The Arms of Orion" with Prince, "The Lover in Me" and "What Comes Naturally". She has worked with prominent singers, writers and producers, such as Prince, Christopher Neil, Kenny Rogers, David Foster, Luis Miguel, L.A. Reid, Babyface, Patrice Rushen and Nile Rodgers.
