"Blind Man" is a song by American hard rock band Aerosmith. It was written by Steven Tyler, Joe Perry, and Taylor Rhodes. It was released as a single in 1994 from the Geffen-era compilation album Big Ones, one of three songs from that greatest hits record not previously released on any Aerosmith studio album.

It peaked at #48 on the Billboard Hot 100, just shy of the Top 40, and reached #3 on the Mainstream Rock Tracks chart. In the United Kingdom, it was released as a double A-side with "Crazy", which hit #23.

Despite the song's moderate success, the band hardly ever performed it live after the 1993-1994 Get a Grip Tour. The video for the song was also one of the only songs not released on the video collection Big Ones You Can Look At. The live performance portions of the video were filmed during the day at The Summit in Houston, Texas before Aerosmith's performance there on September 30, 1994.
