[2] British magazine Music Week rated "Angel of Mine" five out of five, picking it as Single of the Week.

American R&B singer Monica recorded "Angel of Mine" for her second studio album, The Boy Is Mine (1998). [35] On her version, Rodney "Darkchild" Jerkins replaced Lawrence as the song's producer. Jerkins also oversaw mixing along with Dexter Simmons, while recording was handled by Rico Lumpkins. [35] Still credited as a songwriter, Lawrence slightly altered the lyrics for Monica at the behest of Arista Records head Clive Davis. [36] Co-writer Potts commented on Monica's rendition: "Rodney [Jerkins] did an incredible job on the production, and then Monica's interpretation, vocally, was incredible as well. She has such a big voice for someone so young." [37] Monica herself, who was unaware of Eternal's original of "Angel of Mine" until she had recorded her own version the song, [38] described the song about "having a friend that she falls in with, which being human is very easy to do." [39] Sheet music for the song "Angel of Mine" is in the key of D Major in common time with a slow tempo of 96 beats per minute. [40]

Critical reception

"Angel of Mine" was positively received by Chuck Taylor of Billboard , who called the song "unbelievable" and "absolutely stunning." He also noted its commercial potential, claiming "this song has #1 stamped across its heart." [41] In a retrospective review of the song, Tom Breihan from Stereogum called the song "one more sappy ballad from a time that had no shortage of sappy ballads. But the song has stuck in my head a little more than a lot of the other sappy ballads from that time; the chorus melody is strong enough to pop up in my head whenever I see the song’s title." He further added: "Jerkins kept the sleek acoustic-guitar line from Eternal’s version of the song — a sound so clean that it feels almost unreal. [He] also switched the tempo up a bit and added some subtle synth accents and some itchy drum-machine programming. Those touches aren’t enough to keep "Angel of Mine" from sounding sleepy, but they were enough to set it apart from some of the other pop balladry that was on the charts at the time." [42]

Commercial performance

"Angel of Mine" was released on 9 November 1998 as the third single from The Boy Is Mine after Lawrence and Clive Davis had worked out a deal which would see Eternal release the song in Europe, while Monica would get to release the song’s Jerkins-produced version in North America and Oceania. [42] [43] Following the success of her previous singles, "The Boy Is Mine" and "The First Night", "Angel of Mine" became the album's third consecutive release to reach the top of the US Billboard Hot 100 within nine months. [44] It also reached number two on Billboard's Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs charts, becoming the seventh domestic top-10 hit of Monica's career. [45] "Angel of Mine" was eventually ranked third on Billboard's Hot 100 year-end chart for 1999 and placed 62nd on the 1990s decade-end chart. [46]

Elsewhere, "Angel of Mine" became a top ten hit in Canada, where it peaked at number five on RPM 's Canada Top Singles, [47] and reached number eight on both the Adult Contemporary chart and the Dance/Urban chart, respectively. [48] [49] It also peaked at number 12 on the Australian Singles Chart and reached number 36 in New Zealand. [50] [51] In the United Kingdom, despite the success of Eternal's 1997 version, "Angel of Mine" spent two weeks on the UK Singles Chart, reaching number 55. [52] It also reached the top ten of the UK Hip Hop/R&B chart, peaking at number ten. [53]

Music video

The accompanying music video for "Angel of Mine" was directed by Diane Martel and features Tyrese Gibson as Monica's love interest. [54]
