You Were Meant For Me (Jewel Song) - About The Record

About The Record

"You Were Meant For Me" was Jewel's second single to be taken from her debut album.

Just as Jewel's first single, Who Will Save Your Soul, Atlantic Records had Jewel re-record the song for a more radio-friendly version. Initially, the first version that was released was the "Juan Patino Radio Mix" (with a music video produced by Sean Penn). Unfortunately, this version did not gather much attention, and it was later cancled, with the video pulled from MTV and VH1. Jewel again went back into the studio to re-record the song for a third time. The version produced is what we know now as the "radio version".

The original radio version, "Juan Patino Radio Mix", was never released commercially, but on a promotional LP titled "Phyllis Barnabee Finally Gets A Bra" in 1996. The actual "radio version" was released on a commercial CD single, and later on a re-release of Jewel's debut album "Pieces of You".
