If Looks Could Kill (Heart song)

"If Looks Could Kill" is a song written by Jack Conrad and Bob Garrett, originally recorded by Pamala Stanley and later by the rock band Heart in 1985.

Stanley's version was featured in the 1986 Arnold Schwarzenegger film Raw Deal and reached #23 on the Billboard Dance Club Songs chart.

This version is similar to early Heart tunes as it is an aggressive, hard rock number.

The song is about a woman confronting a cheating lover, letting him know that "if looks could kill / you'd be lying on the floor".

After four top-ten U.S. singles (including the number-one "These Dreams") from the Heart album, "If Looks Could Kill" peaked at number 54 on the Billboard Hot 100.
