| "Angels Cry" | |
|---|---|
| Song |
"Angels Cry (Remix)" is a performed by American R&B singer Mariah Carey album Angels Advocate. It is a remix of the song "Angels Cry" from the album Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel and features additional vocals from R&B singer Ne-Yo.
Background
The original version of the song had no guest vocals and was featured on Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel. The new version featuring Ne-Yo will be released as a single from Carey's remix album "Angels Advocate".
"Angels Cry (remix)" featuring Ne-Yo officially impacted Rhythmic, Urban and Urban AC radio on January 26, 2010.[1] According to Island Records's website the song is scheduled for release on February 16, 2010 for mainstream radio.[2]
Music video
A music video was shot in December 2009, along with the video for "Up Out My Face (Remix)" featuring Nicki Minaj. Both videos were co-directed by Carey and her husband Nick Cannon. They premiered together on VEVO.com on January 27, 2010[3][4]. The video starts off with Carey walking in the rain, to meet up with Ne-Yo in the studio. As the video progresses, scenes of Carey singing and sulking in the rain play, while other clips of her studio sessions continue. At the climax of the video, Carey is belting out the song in the studio with Ne-Yo, and reminiscing of her sad moments alone in the rainy alley. The video ends with Carey and Ne-Yo exiting their recording session, and as they exit the studio, the rain has stopped, and both of them walk out into the sunny morning. The video has brought many comparisons to two of Carey's previous videos, primarily One Sweet Day and Through The Rain, for the studio sessions and rainy scenes.
