The song was new at the time of Fingerprints and you can clearly see the band and Bernard in the video, and it's obvious from the images it was recorded in 2004/05. Compare it to any Odyssey #5 videos and it's blatant.). The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.

"Bless My Soul"
Song

"Bless My Soul" is a single from Powderfinger's first "best of" album, Fingerprints: The Best of Powderfinger, 1994-2000. The other new song on the album, "Process This," was not released as a single.

The song was written whilst the band was holidaying in Spain, according to lead singer Bernard Fanning.[3]

In Australia, the song was ranked #9 on Triple J's Hottest 100 of 2004.
