Green Eyed Soul is the debut album by German singer-songwriter Sarah Connor, released in German-speaking Europe on November 26, 2001 by Epic. It features main production by Rob Tyger and Kay Denar, with additional production from Bülent Aris, Adam Charon, Mekong Age, Rufi-Oh and rapper TQ.
The album received a generally mixed reception from professional music critics, and upon its release, it opened at number two on the German Albums Chart, and within the top five in Austria, Finland and Switzerland. It was eventually certified triple gold by the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry and ranked number twenty-eighth on the German year-end chart.
Altogether Green Eyed Soul spawned three singles: "Let's Get Back to Bed – Boy!" featuring TQ, "French Kissing" (based on a sample of Blackstreet's "No Diggity"), and the ballad "From Sarah with Love", Connor's first number-one hit and breakthrough song. A fourth track, "If U Were My Man", received a limited promotional release in Eastern Europe, but failed to chart anywhere.

The universal blue
And local green suggest.”

“And the child not caring to whom he climbs his prayer
Shall drown in a grief as deep as his made grave,
And mark the dark eyed wave, through the eyes of sleep,
Dragging him up the stairs to one who lies dead.”
—Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
“The only mode of obtaining an answer to these questions of the senses is to forego all low curiosity, and, accepting the tide of being which floats us into the secret of nature, work and live, work and live, and all unawares the advancing soul has built and forged for itself a new condition, and the question and the answer are one.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
