"Soul Passing Through Soul" is the second single released by Toyah Willcox as a solo artist. The song, and its b-side were taken from her debut solo album Minx. Released in June 1985, it failed to enter the Top 40, peaking at number 57. It spent 3 weeks on the UK Singles Chart.[1]

Like many of the tracks on Minx the song suffers from a somewhat sterile mid-80's production, where fans may have been hoping for some of the punk energy of her previous work[citation needed].

The Extended Mix which features on the 12" vinyl was added to the Minx 2005 CD reissue.
