"Magic Man" is a hit rock song released in 1976 by Heart. It was issued as the second single from the band's debut album Dreamboat Annie. Written by Ann and Nancy Wilson, the song is sung from the viewpoint of a young girl who is being seduced by an older man (referred to as a Magic Man), much to the chagrin of her mother, who begs the girl to come home.
"Magic Man" became Heart's first top-ten hit in the U.S., peaking at number nine on the Billboard Hot 100.
"Magic Man" was also released on the soundtrack of Sofia Coppola's film The Virgin Suicides.
