Angel, the first track on the album Mezzanine is a highly emotional trip-hop tune featuring Horace Andy’s vocals. The song evokes dark and sinister cries from the slow and repetitive percussion and then strikes a distressed melody with an electric guitar drowning through the sonic atmosphere of the piece.
The song has been featured in the movie “Snatch” (2000) and several others as well as TV series such as “The West Wing,” and “Smallville.”
The music video features Daddy G walking through a parking garage and being followed by other individuals, the first of which being 3G, and other members of the band. Eventually, he begins running away as the numbers of the followers grow. Eventually, he reaches a dead end, slows, turns around to confront his followers, and the tables turn as he begins chasing the crowd away.

Makes me think of death every single time I listen to it. I love it but brings me down in a deliscious way. Blue blue dark song this is yet addictive.
