Like the majority of her singles, Atlantic Records requested Jewel to re-record "This Way" with a more pop overtone. The "Album Version" of the song proved too acoustic-sounding and downtempo for Mainstream Radio. The "Radio Remix" contained more percussion, background vocals, and an uptempo guitar arrangement.
The song charted in at #36 on Billboard's Hot Adult Top 40 Tracks in September 2002.
The song also appears in the movie Enough starring Jennifer Lopez.
A music video featuring audio from the Radio Remix was shot for the song in 2002 and directed by Marcos Efron. Efron got the chance to direct the video through a competition run by Jewel's Soul City Cafe organization. The music video never aired in North America, though it was played in South America, Europe, Asia, and Australia.
