5.0 out of 5 stars Great song!, September 27, 2008

Angel is a little bit of a departure from Natasha's other hits like Unwritten and Pocketful of Sunshine. This one is more of a soulful pop ballad and her beautiful voice is perfect for the great lyrics in the song. I just downloaded this today after hearing it on the radio on my way home from work the other day and I keep going back to listen to it. More great music from Natasha B.! I can't wait to hear what's next! :)

Natasha Bedingfield has shown herself to be a very savvy pop artist. When her second CD ("N.B.") underperformed critically and commercially in Europe, she scrapped its planned U.S. release and quickly recorded a new CD ("Pocketful of Sunshine") that she thought would do better. The first two singles from that new CD fit seamlessly into current American pop radio: "Love Like This" peaked at #11 and "Pocketful of Sunshine" went all the way to #5. The third single, "Angel," is a beautiful ballad-tinged song likely to become a big U.S. hit.

"Angel" is a bit more R&B leaning than her usual single; producer Darkchild has produced numerous hits for R&B artists like Destiny's Child, Mary J. Blige, Pussycat Dolls, and Beyonce. The single starts as an atmospheric piano-driven jam, somewhat reminiscent of Nelly Furtado's "Say It Right." The song becomes progressively more up-tempo, culminating in a rap-style bridge by Natasha. What I like most about the song is that the production sounds so current yet it really incorporates Natasha's style as well - she sounds really great vocally here. A real winner that likely will vie for the top 10.
