"Angel Eyes" is a song by Canadian-Indian singer Raghav (full name Raghav Mathur) from his 2004 album Storyteller. It features additional vocals by Jucxi and Frankey Maxx, although they are not credited on the cover of the single.

The single was released in February 2005, and became Raghav's most successful release. He performed the song live accompanied by the two artists on Top of the Pops in Britain.[1] An official music video was also released.[2]

"Angel Eyes" is greatly inspired by a melody from the hit "Murder She Wrote" by Jamaican reggae duo Chaka Demus & Pliers, and widely uses the song's music arrangement. "Murder She Wrote" was a success in the UK in 1992, making it to number 27 and was included on the Chaka Demus & Pliers album Tease Me/All She Wrote.

"Angel Eyes" is also a remake of Raghav's Hindi language hit "Teri Baaton Mein"[3] with new English language lyrics and new arrangement. "Angel Eyes" contains one brief Hindi language excerpt from "Teri Baaton Mein".

Charts

The single peaked at number 7 on the UK Singles Chart, spending 6 weeks in the chart.[4]
