Angel – Elvis Presley (New Edit) 4K

“Angel” is one of those tender Elvis Presley ballads that quietly showcases the softer side of his voice. The song was released in 1961 as part of the soundtrack to the film Wild in the Country, a dramatic role that allowed Elvis to step away from pure rock and roll and lean into more introspective material.

The track appeared on the album Wild in the Country, issued in 1961. Unlike many of his explosive early hits, “Angel” was not released as a major standalone single, and therefore it did not achieve significant chart success on its own. However, the soundtrack material from this period contributed to Elvis’s continued dominance of the early 1960s pop landscape, as he regularly placed singles and albums high on the Billboard charts during that era.

“Angel” stands out for its gentle melody and heartfelt lyrics, carried by Elvis’s warm, restrained vocal delivery. It reflects the transitional phase of his career in the early ’60s – balancing Hollywood film commitments with his recording career – and offers fans a glimpse of the romantic crooner who could be just as compelling as the King of Rock and Roll.
