Green Eyed Soul (Sarah Connor Album)
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.

“Pike, three inches long, perfect
Pike in all parts, green tigering the gold.
Killers from the egg: the malevolent aged grin.
They dance on the surface among the flies.”

“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)
“Nothing that comes from the deep, passional soul is bad, or can be bad.”
