"Light in Your Eyes" is the second and final single from Sheryl Crow's first compilation album titled The Very Best of Sheryl Crow (2003). It was released as a single only in Europe and Canada, even though it was sent to radio stations in the US and charted on the US Billboard adult contemporary chart in 2005, reaching #36, and the Adult Top 40, where it peaked at #10. It was also successful on the Triple A Chart by peaking at No 4 on 2004-07-16. It actually reached the Top40-Charts.com Top 100 Airplay Chart peaking at #34 and the Top Hits Online Charts, not going further than #53. It was featured on the Napoleon Dynamite soundtrack. Crow acknowledges George Harrison as being an influence in this song (particularly "My Sweet Lord"). The song was covered by the German singer Tabea in 2013. The chorus was originally sung by a young girl named Holden Hamlet as a tribute to her late parents, and was likely picked up by Crow.
