"Open Your Eyes" is the fourth UK single and the fifth single in total from Snow Patrol's 2006 album Eyes Open [1]. It was released on 12 February 2007.
The song's music video is actual footage from the classic cult film C'était un rendez-vous by director Claude Lelouch.
The song is used as the theme music to BBC One's Football Focus. The song gained more popularity after being featured during the Season 12 finale of ER .
