Angels is a song by the English singersongwriter Robbie Williams. It was included on Williams s debut solo album, Life thru a Lens (1997), and released as a single on 1 December 1997 by Chrysalis. Angels was written by Williams and Guy Chambers, based on an earlier song written by Ray Heffernan Williams said he wrote Angels with Chambers about his aunt and uncle, while Heffernan said he wrote the first version in 1996 and finished it with Williams. Williams confirmed that he recorded a demo with Heffernan but said he rewrote the song significantly with Chambers. To avoid a lawsuit, Williams bought the song rights from Heffernan before it was released. Vaughan Arnell directed its music video, which was shot in black and white.

It was voted the best song of the previous 25 years at the 2005 Brit Awards, and in 2005 Britons voted it the song they most want
