“Angels Losing Sleep” by Our Lady Peace

"Angels/Losing/Sleep" was the second single from Healthy in Paranoid Times, Our Lady Peace's sixth album, which Columbia put out on August 30, 2005, the band's last for the label. The record took forever: by the liner notes' count, 1165 days across ten studios and 43 songs written and taped, with the band so torn over which takes to keep that the release kept slipping, tempers frayed and the group nearly split more than once.

Raine Maida wrote the words, and the music is credited to Maida, Duncan Coutts, Steve Mazur, Jeremy Taggart and Bob Rock. On an album that mostly goes lighter and plainer-spoken, this one sends Maida back up into the high, strained, falsetto-edged register that was once his calling card.
