A while ago I got the urge to write a good old-fashioned Country Western cheating song. After messing around with several ideas, “Send Me An Angel” bubbled to the surface. There was nothing going on in my personal life to bring this on other than I just felt like writing one. There have been some great cheating songs written throughout the years; Dolly Parton’s “Jolene” and Garth Brooks’ “The Thunder Rolls” are two of my favorites.

I wrote this one on piano and unlike “Do Me Tonight” where I played a baby grand, this time I played a Steinway Grand Piano. The instrumentation was bare bones simple, and my musician friends had a lot of fun with it. It’s always a challenge to make “simple” sound great, but when it does it sounds like “Send Me An Angel”.
