Island Def Jam released "Angel" as the album's lead single in October 2000.

Music video

[edit]

An accompanying music video for "Angel" was filmed by German directors Wolf Gresenz und Bernard Wedig and took ten days to be completed. Budgeted at 650.000 D-Mark, it marked production company Blow Film's first video with international clients.[1] Shot in Berlin, including locations such as the Babelsberg Studios in Potsdam-Babelsberg and the Berlin Alexanderplatz station, it went into post production after its third day of filming.[1]
