Green Eyed Soul (sometimes stylised as Green-Eyed Soul) is the debut album by German recording artist Sarah Connor, released in German-speaking Europe on November 26, 2001 by X-Cell Records. 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,^[2] and upon its release, it opened at number two on the German Albums Chart, and within the top five in Austria, Finland and Switzerland.^[3] It was eventually certified triple gold by the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry^[4] and ranked number twenty-eighth on the German year-end chart.^[5]

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.^[3] A fourth track, "If U Were My Man", received a limited promotional release in Eastern Europe, but failed to chart anywhere.
