Song for Juli is the fourth solo album by singer-songwriter and former Youngblood Jesse Colin Young. The album had a higher chart placing than any of the Youngbloods albums, and stayed on the charts longer than any other album he ever made.

Several of the songs include allusions to Young's ridgetop home in Inverness, California. The house burned down in the 1995 Mount Vision Fire.[2]
