Angel In My Heart

So I was listening to my iPod (on random play) the other day, and Angel In My Heart came on. I hadn't heard it in ages, and I was absolutely floored by the beauty of that song. What an absolute masterpiece, IMO! Such a gorgeous harpsichord (and other instruments whose names escape me), a beautiful and simple melody, wonderful lyrics, and Mick's vocals have never been more heartfelt. It's the kind of song that can make a grown man cry.

Yes, a lot of Mick's solo stuff is second-rate (or worse), but I don't think it's an exaggeration to put Angel In My Heart in the same league as the Stones' very finest ballads, including Moonlight Mile.

Thoughts?

I agree with you, except that I don't beleive most of his solo work is second rate. Mick explores so many gendres in his solo works. I think too many people want a Mick record to sound like the Stones & when it doesn't people trash it. Too bad because there is much good music such as Angel in my heart that gets overlooked.

I think that song is total shit.

Just my opinion.

Yes I agree, it's utterly beautiful. I've always been surprised that it's almost totally ignored.

To me Angel In My Heart and New Faces sound like daughters of Lady Jane. Beautiful, simple songs.

This may seem like heresy, but I think Angel In My Heart is more beautiful than Lady Jane. New Faces isn't even in the running. IMO.
