Encyclopedia > Doctor My Eyes

"Doctor My Eyes" is a 1972 song written and performed by Jackson Browne and included on his debut album Jackson Browne. Featuring a combination of an upbeat piano riff — accidentally found courtesy of an instrument with a broken action that Browne was writing songs on — together with Browne's trademark big poetic vision, it was a surprise hit, reaching number 8 on the Billboard Hot 100 in spring 1972. (Indeed Browne would not see the Top 10 again until 1982's soundtrack hit "Somebody's Baby".) "Doctor My Eyes" became a concert mainstay for Browne, and was included on both his later compilation albums.
