"Sexy Eyes" is a song written by Annerley Gordon, Alfredo Larry Pignagnoli, Davide Riva and Paul Sears, and recorded by Danish singer Whigfield.

It became Whigfield's second top-10 hit in Austria and was her first in Australia, becoming the 19th highest-selling single in Australia for 1997. The single was also certified platinum by ARIA. In Spain, "Sexy Eyes" reached number 4, and in the United Kingdom the song also entered the charts.[1]

Music video

The music video for "Sexy Eyes" was directed by Italian director Giacomo De Simone. It features Whigfield in Porto Venere, Italy. It begins with the singer arriving town, driving in her car. This time she has curls in her hair and wears black sunglasses. After beginning to sing, she leaves her car and brings a silver hard case with her. Then she dances on her way along the pier of the city. She stops by a gypsy woman, who are selling porcelain cats. Whigfield takes a look, but refuses to buy when the woman are reaching her one. The singer continues dancing through the narrow alleys of Porto Venere. Suddenly three white sailors appear. They are chasing Whigfield and dances with her along on her way. A scene shows her kissing one of them. Towards the end, the sailors disappear, one by one. Back in her car, she opens her hard case, and there lies three white porcelain cats. The video ends as Whigfield drives away in her car, now with the sailors. It was uploaded to YouTube in 2013. In August 202o, it has got more than 1,100,000 views.[2]
