From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Angel in the Snow" is a song by a-ha, the third single from the album Memorial Beach.
The song was written as a wedding present for Lauren, Paul's wife. It is customary at Norwegian weddings that the husband-to-be profess his love for the bride in a unique way, and "Angel in the Snow" was Paul's contribution.
"Angel in the Snow" appears on Memorial Beach but was recorded during a dark time in a-ha's history. The band rarely plays any songs from this era in concert. The live version of the music video is not available but was performed at the Valhall concert released on DVD. It is unclear why this was the only song left off of the video. There were actually two versions of this video. The first version was very similar, but included a quick scene featuring two fans, one of whom won the MTV contest to be in the video. It was only shown a few times, and version two replaced it in rotation.
