"Who Will Save Your Soul" is a song written by Jewel, and was the first song released from her first album Pieces of You (1995).
Jewel explained her creative process for "Who Will Save Your Soul" in an interview.
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 consists of.
A commercial single of Who Will Save Your Soul was released in the United States in 1996. It became her first hit single, peaking at number 11 on the Billboard Hot 100.
The music video was directed by Geoff Moore. The video features Jewel singing the song interspersed with the goings-on in a bathroom. It was nominated for MTV Video Music Award in Best female video category.
