Angel of Harlem was the second single released to promote the album and movie, Rattle and Hum. The song was written as an homage to Billie Holiday, who is mentioned here as Lady Day. The song was written during the Joshua Tree tour and was recorded during a session at Sun Studios in Memphis during the later part of the third leg of that tour. The front artwork of the single was a black and white photo of Adam Clayton taken by Colm Henry. The back of the single features a photograph of Billie Holiday. The version of Angel of Harlem that appears on the single releases is very slightly remixed from the album mix.

So long Angel of Harlem. Birdland on Fifty-Three The street sounds like a symphony We got John Coltrane and a love supreme Miles and she's got to be an angel. Lady Day got diamond eyes She sees the truth behind the lies (Angel). Soul love Well this love won't let me go. So long Angel of Harlem. Blue light on the avenue God knows they got to you Empty glass, the lady sings Eyes swollen like a bee-sting. Blinded, you lost your way In the side streets and the alleyways Like a star exploding in the night Filling up the city with broad daylight
