Angel
Submitted by Richard View Comments
Angel achieved it’s highest UK singles chart position of #30 on it’s first week of release and would remain in the charts for one more week. An explanation for why the Angel single did not do nearly as well as the other previously released Mezzanine singles, Risingson and Teardrop was partly with the lack of promotion for the Angel single. 3D described the Angel single release as Quote - “The song [Angel] was a bit of a non release for us”. Added to this was that the video promo for Angel was never released at the time of the single’s release owing to the video not properly conveying the meaning of the song, in Massive Attack’s opinion. The Angel video would remain shelved until the release of the Eleven Promos DVD in 2001. Please note that, you can view a larger image (s) of the catalogued item in question by clicking on it.
