"Lose Your Way" is a song by American singer-songwriter Sophie B. Hawkins, which was released in 1999 as the sole single from her third studio album Timbre.
Listener reception was positive and a subsequent internet campaign saw 200,000 emails sent to Sony Music (Columbia's parent company) in support of the artist.
The company then agreed to give Hawkins control over her musical direction and Timbre was released in 1999, with "Lose Your Way" as a promotional single.
[5] After Timbre saw limited commercial success, Hawkins left Columbia in 2000 and had the album re-released independently (with distribution by Rykodisc) in 2001.
[7] In a review of Timbre, Sandra Sperounes of the Edmonton Journal considered the song a "lovely, bittersweet ballad" and added: "Banjo isn't known for being the most delicate of instruments, but [here] it gracefully mingles with a tinkling piano and Hawkins' quavering voice.
