"Found That Soul" is a single by the Manic Street Preachers, released on 26 February 2001 from the Know Your Enemy album. Writing credit was shared by all three members of the band, James Dean Bradfield, Sean Moore and Nicky Wire.[1] The song reached number 9 in the UK Singles Chart.[2]

Launch

Launched on the same day as "So Why So Sad",[3] this was the first sign of the Manics since the number-one hit "The Masses Against the Classes" thirteen months earlier. It reached a UK chart position of number 9 on 10 March 2001,[4] at the same time as "So Why So Sad" reached number 8.[5] Less than 200 copies separated "Found That Soul" from "So Why So Sad" placing it 1 place lower at number 9.[6]

The CD also included versions of "Locust Valley" and "Ballad Of The Bangkok Novotel," whereas the 7" included a live version of "The Masses Against the Classes". "Ballad of the Bangkok Novotel" is entirely sung by Nicky Wire. In Benjamin Millar's review of Know Your Enemy for The Blurb, he described "Found That Soul" which "gets us off to a manic and electric start, a sonic attack that makes a huge noise for a three-piece."[7]
