"Angel" is the soft spot on Savages, the fifth album from Canadian rock band Theory of a Deadman, and it went out as the record's third single in February 2015. It's a ballad about a man in love with an angel who comes to understand that sooner or later he'll have to let her go, and Randy Shatkowski of Underground Pulse called it an "electronic-tinged lost love ballad", with Tyler Connolly singing more vulnerably than ever.

The band wrote it with Jennifer Decilveo. Howard Benson produced, Mike Plotnikoff recorded it, and Chris Lord-Alge mixed, with Keith Armstrong and Nik Karpen assisting. Roadrunner put it out.
