"Angel" is the second European single from Pharrell's debut album, "In My Mind" (2006). It debuted on November 29, 2005 in the UK and was backed heavily by BBC Radio 1 where at one point it was their most played record. It was also made Record of the Week by UK DJ Scott Mills.

The single was originally due for release on December 5, 2005, but because the album "In My Mind" was pushed back, the single was released on January 21 2006. The single became Pharrell's third top 20 hit in the UK, peaking at #15 there, his lowest chart peak to date. It also only stayed in the UK top 75 single chart for 4 weeks.

The single was not released in the U.S. or Australia due to the underperformance of "Can I Have It Like That" in both countries. [http://music.monstersandcritics.com/news/article_1179668.php]
