"Angel in the Snow" is a song by Norwegian band A-ha, released as the second single from their fifth studio album, Memorial Beach (1993). The single version of the song is only named "Angel". It was written as a wedding present for Lauren, the wife of principal songwriter and guitarist Paul Waaktaar-Savoy. It is customary at Norwegian weddings that the husband-to-be professes his love for the bride in a personally relevant manner, and "Angel in the Snow" was Paul's contribution. The single only reached number 41 on the UK Singles Chart. It also was going to be released in Germany but this was canceled.
