"Jewels and Bullets" was the second single You Am I pulled from Hi Fi Way in 1995, and the Australian band handed the controls to Lee Ranaldo, who produced it and mixed it with Jon Auer. Tim Rogers wrote the words and shares the music credit with Andy Kent and Russell Hopkinson, and John Siket recorded it, with four assistants: Bil Emmons, Fred Kevorkian, Phil Painson and Josh Wertheimer.

On the charts it barely scraped in, reaching number 93 on the ARIA singles chart and the same spot in Triple J's Hottest 100 that year. The video was another story: directed by Robbie Douglas-Turner, it won the ARIA Award for Best Video in 1995.
