Angel's Son is a Single written by Lajon Witherspoon of Sevendust and ex-Snot band member (now ex-Sevendust guitarist) Sonny Mayo and performed by Witherspoon and two fellow Sevendust members (drummer Morgan Rose and guitarist/vocalist Clint Lowery), for the post-mortem compilation CD in honor of James Lynn Strait known as Strait Up^[1].

[edit] Music Video

The Strait Up version features the band with ex-Snot bandmates playing on a beach around a camp fire. Footage of James Lynn Strait from the band "Snot" who died with his dog Dobbs in a car accident is superimposed during 'vigil' around the campfire, growing in attendance with appearances of fellow musicians including Dez, Coal Chamber, Sugar Ray, Kittie, Incubus, Korn and others to say goodbye to their friend as a memorium title is revealed at the last few moments of the song.

The Sevendust version of the song shows the band playing the song in a Hospital throughout the track.
