"Miss Me Blind" is a song by the 1980s pop band Culture Club. The song was released on the band's second album Colour by Numbers and charted in 1984 on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart at #5.

The single was released in U.S.A, Canada (where it also reached number 5), Brazil, Australia and Japan.

The song also includes a reference to the title of one of Culture Club's previous album. Lead singer Boy George states in the song "But you know, I'm never really sure, If you're just kissing to be clever", the name of Culture Club's debut album.

The song was never released in UK as a single, even if it was a fans' favourite.

In most countries (like Japan, Canada and USA), its B-Side was the ballad "Colour by Numbers". In Mexico, the B-Side was "Victims". In Brazil, the B-Side was "Boy Boy (I'm The Boy)".

A very popular 12" was issued, gaining big success in American clubs especially. The popular extended 12" version contained extracts of the other Culture Club hit of the spring, "It's a Miracle".

The official video in YouTube features Boy George and the rest of the Culture Club members,and it takes place in China, and ends with a girl and a man yelling, trying to blow off a fire.
