"She's So High" is a pop rock song written and performed by Canadian singer-songwriter Tal Bachman. It was released as a single in 1999 from his eponymous album. The song won a BMI award and a Juno Award for Best Producer. Parent album Tal Bachman did particularly well, in the U.S. reaching the #1 spot on Billboard's 'Heatseekers' chart.

The song did particularly well in the U.S., reaching the #1 spot of Billboard's 'Adult Top 40' chart. The American media group Allmusic named it an 'album pick'.

Bachman wrote the song about an experience that he had in high school when he was trying to get a girl to date his stepbrother. "I attempted to bribe the hottest girl in our high school to go out on a date with [my stepbrother]," Bachman told MTV News. "So as the conversation between me and what I thought was this godly, I began to feel more and more uncomfortable and awkward, and so I just remember that feeling... I don't want to say fear, but just kind of being in awe of her."

The official music video features Yvonne Sciò dressed in angel's wings and World War II-era headgear, a leather pilot cap with aviator's goggles.

All songs written and composed by Tal Bachman.

The single reached No. 1 on three different radio formats in Canada, and became a multi-format Top 10 hit in the United States and internationally.

Four years after Bachman's hit, Norwegian Kurt Nilsen's cover version of the song reached No. 1 in Norway and was Norway's best selling single ever. It was an international hit a year later.
