"Hungry Eyes" is a song performed by American musician Eric Carmen, a former member of the band Raspberries, and was featured in the film Dirty Dancing (1987).

Songwriters Franke Previte and John DeNicola wrote the song, as well as another hit from the Dirty Dancing soundtrack, "(I've Had) The Time of My Life".

In 1975, he released his first solo album Eric Carmen in 1975, spawning the worldwide hit "All by Myself", but subsequently faced declining chart fortunes.

A few months after the success of "Hungry Eyes", Carmen released the Ienner-produced "Make Me Lose Control", which also reached the Top 10 in the US.

The music video featured Carmen with Paulina Porizkova[7] as the main actress/mystery girl and Sally Steele in a short scene in a café at the end.

[citation needed] A reworked version with altered lyrics by James Radford appeared in a 2017 commercial for Sheba cat food in the UK.[48][importance?]
