"Put Your Hands Where My Eyes Could See" is a song by American rapper Busta Rhymes from his second studio album When Disaster Strikes. Released as the lead single, the song includes samples from "Sweet Green Fields" by Seals & Crofts. It was nominated for the Grammy Award for Best Rap Solo Performance at the 40th Grammy Awards in 1998, but lost to "Men in Black" by Will Smith. The song became very successful, it peaked at number eleven on the US Billboard Hot 100, as well as reaching number two on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart, whilst reaching number sixteen on the UK Singles Chart. The song is best remembered by its music video, directed by Hype Williams, which features Busta waking up, getting dressed and brushing his teeth (along with his maids). The video is based on John Landis's 1988 film Coming to America. At the chorus is a well choreographed dance routine which is followed by Busta running with an elephant in glowing tribal African make-up and outfit. The video received heavy rotation on both the MTV and BET networks.
