Close Your Eyes is jazz singer Stacey Kent's debut album, released in 1997 by Candid Records.

It was produced by Alan Bates and features her husband, tenor saxophonist Jim Tomlinson. Kent celebrated the release of Close your Eyes with a performance at the Birdland jazz club in New York City in September 1997. Close Your Eyes was the best-selling British jazz album of 1997.

In an interview with Billboard to promote the album Kent said: "With this album, I was trying to give a mixture of things that people know and gems that got lost, songs that might get missed out of the great standard repertoire."
