简介

"Angels Cry" is a song performed by American R&B singer Mariah Carey. Written by Carey, Christopher Stewart, Crystal Johnson, James Wright the song features on her twelfth studio album, Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel. It was remixed to feature fellow American R&B singer, Ne-Yo and then released on February 23, 2010 as the intended second single from Carey's now cancelled second remix album, Angels Advocate. "Angels Cry" was moderately successful having peaked at number 26 on the U.S. Adult Contemporary chart and its music video was produced by Carey and husband, Nick Cannon. Soon after its release, Angels Advocate was cancelled as well as all subsequent promotion and release of the song. The original version of the song had no guest vocals and was featured on Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel. The newer version features vocals from Ne-Yo. "Angels Cry (remix)" featuring Ne-Yo officially impacted Rhythmic, Urban and Urban AC radio on January 26, 2010. The track also impacted Mainstream Adult Contemporary radio in early February 2010, and was released to iTunes on February 23, 2010. Apart from the U.S. it was released in Australia, New Zealand, Japan and the United Kingdom as the lead single from Angels Advocate. Robert Copsey of British entertainment website Digital Spy praised the song for bringing Carey back to her musical roots. In his review he says "A standout from last year's Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel platter, it's about as close to 'classic' Mariah as 'new' Mariah gets. Her vocals sound classy and effortless as the song launches into a chorus that twinkles, before Ne-Yo swoops in, cranks up the emotional dial and duly adds an extra dimension to the solo original. Yes, it's a bit of a 'We Belong Together' retread, but it's a thoroughly pleasant 'We Belong Together' retread that should help that rather tricky album to appeal beyond Carey's core fanbase." On March 10, 2010 it was revealed that "Angels Cry" (featuring Ne-Yo) had debuted and peaked at number 30 on the Hot AC Songs making it the second time that Carey has had two songs from the same album (Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel and Angels Advocate are being treated as a linked project) appear on the chart with the other song being "I Want to Know What Love Is". The last time this happened was with the album Butterfly with the title song and the "My All" (1997/98). It is her 43rd U.S. R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart entry according to her Billboard discography.
