"Hands" is the first single released from Jewel's second album, Spirit (1998). Hands was the first single released by Jewel that was not altered from its original album version. However, a radio edit for the commercial release did surface. Radio edits are issued when the label feels the song is running too long for airplay. The radio edit cut the song short by less than a minute. A commercial single was never issued in the United States, and the singles that were issued internationally received the album version. The radio edit can be found only on promos for the single. Even though it was never released in physical format, it still reached number six on the Billboard Hot 100.
Many radio stations play Hands with their all Christmas music format.
