"Who Will Save Your Soul" is a folk pop song written by Jewel, and was the first song released from her first album Pieces of You.
Jewel explained her
creative process for "Who Will Save Your Soul" in an interview.
"When I was about sixteen years old I
took a train from Michigan to San Diego and then into Tijuana and hitchhiked around Mexico.
It seemed like everybody else was looking for somebody to save them. I wrote it
during that trip, but I had no idea it would ever be on a record."
The original version of "Who Will Save Your Soul" was never
released on "Pieces Of You": during the process of picking songs, it
was decided that it would be re-recorded. The radio version is missing a verse
and samples more of a pop/folk sound than the folk acoustic sound the album
primarily consist of.
The music video was
directed by Geoff Moore.
It was nominated for MTV Video Music
Award in Best female video category.
