Massive Attack's 3rd album "Mezzanine" was created under duress, but sent them into the stratosphere. Is there a top 500 albums list without this on it? This song's lyrics are derived from Horace Andy's own song "She Is My Angel". I'll put a link to MA's own official page for this song & its development, etc., in the description. The image of "The Haserot Angel" from the Lakeview Cemetery (Cleveland, OH.) somehow felt right for the song. I am not paid by YouTube, so please like & subscribe. Thank you. (Lyrics & more info below).

You are my angel
Come from way above
To bring me love (To bring me love)
Her eyes
She's on the dark side
Neutralize
Every man in sight
Love you, love you, love you
Love you, love you, love you
Love you, love you, love you...
You are my angel
Come from way above
Love you, love you, love you
Love you, love you, love you
Love you, love you, love you...
Lyrics: Robert Del Naja ,Horace Hinds, Grantley Marshall, Andrew Vowles.

[Mezzanine is the third studio album by English electronic music group Massive Attack, released on 20 April 1998 by Circa and Virgin Records. For the album, the group began to explore a darker aesthetic, and focused on a more atmospheric style influenced by British post-punk, industrial music, hip hop and dub music.
Mezzanine topped the charts in the United Kingdom, Australia, Ireland, and New Zealand, becoming the group's most commercially successful album to date. It has appeared on multiple "best albums" lists, and is now widely regarded as one of the greatest albums of the 1990s. The album spawned four singles, "Risingson", "Teardrop", "Angel" and "Inertia Creeps", which also variously charted in the United Kingdom.] ~ Wiki
"CLEVELAND’S LAKEVIEW CEMETERY CONTAINS OVER 100,000 graves, including those of presidents and business moguls. However, its most striking grave marker may be the unsettling statue known as Haserot’s Angel.
Actually named “The Angel of Death Victorious,” the stoic angel is seated on the marble gravestone of canning entrepreneur Francis Haserot and his family. The life-size bronze holds an extinguished torch upside-down, a symbol of life extinguished. Her wings are outstretched and she gazes straight ahead." ~ [ Ссылка ]
