Soul Education is a song by Jamiroquai, the fourth track of their 1999 album, Synkronized. The song was written by Jay Kay and Toby Smith, and was issued as a promotional recording in France. No other release of this song is known to exist. This French, radio-only promo was released in very limited amounts, and is considered to be very rare today. The only track on the disc is a radio edit of the song, which is, interestingly, one second longer than its album version. The promo CD was released in a cardboard sleeve. The are two versions of the cover, which is simply a sticker. The first version is a rather colorful sticker, while the second one is a plain sticker, simply reading "JAMIROQUAI <<Soul Education>> 3:55". In live performances, the song is usually extended, sometimes lasting over 10 minutes, including additional verses, solos and so on.
