《Angel》由 Sarah Mclachlan 在电影《北京遇上西雅图》上演唱的曲调温柔，听后让人感觉温暖， 娓娓动人。《Angel》中文译为“天使”， 唯美动听的曲调给电影增添了不少色彩。
Sarah MacLachlan最脍炙人口的歌曲当属电影《City Of Angel》主题曲《Angel》，当时因为歌曲搭配着电影剧情造成全球轰动。这首Angel在台湾有林凡翻唱，而擅长翻唱的Westlife也翻唱Angel,足见Angel的经典程度。不过，最让人津津乐道的是，原披头士成员之一Paul McCartney 99年曾因为现场聆听Sarah McLachlan演唱这首歌曲而泪流满面，原来当时他想起了已逝爱妻琳达，Sarah McLachlan的歌声给了他最多的感动。
