ABBA - 'Angel Eyes'

"Angeleyes" (also known as "Angel Eyes") is a pop song written and recorded in 1978 by ABBA, and is featured on their sixth studio album, «Voulez-Vous». Released as a double A-side with the title track of the album in July 1979, the lyrics and music were composed by Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus. As one of ABBA's most popular tracks in the United Kingdom, the song was a successful hit, peaking at No. 3 on the singles chart. In the United Kingdom, "Angeleyes" was released as a double A-side with "Voulez-Vous", this being an unusual move for the group.ABBA and the personnel at Epic, the group's British record label, believed that with its classic ABBA arrangement, "Angeleyes" would be considerably popular with the record buying public. No promotional video for "Angeleyes" was made; as ABBA had filmed one for "Voulez-Vous", this was used to promote the double A-side single on "Top of the Pops". The double A-side peaked at No. 3 in the UK in August 1979. As of September 2021, the double side is ABBA's 13th most popular song in the UK, including both pure sales and digital streams. Coincidentally, ABBA's "Angeleyes" entered the top twenty in the UK at the same time as another song called "Angel Eyes" by the British rock band «Roxy Music», written by musicians Bryan Ferry and Andy McKay
