Writing and production
"Soul Singing" was co-written, like all original Black Crowes songs, by Chris and Rich Robinson. The song began with a riff that Rich had written a "long time" before the recording of ''Lions''. Chris then added the vocal melodies and corresponding lyrics, which pertained to his then-wife, Kate Hudson. While Chris believed this early form of "Soul Singing", with one instrumental section throughout, sufficed, Rich argued a second section was needed. "So we talked about that one for a while", recalled Rich, who ultimately won the argument. Rich recorded his guitar part with a James Trussart metal-bodied electric, which offered a resonator-like tone. "I knew that guitar was the only one that could go from sounding acoustic in the verses to electric in the chorus in the way that I wanted", said Rich.Track listing
