American R&B singer Monica's cover version of "Angel of Mine" was released on November 17, 1998 as the third single from her second studio album The Boy Is Mine (1998). Following the success of her previous singles, "The Boy Is Mine" and "The First Night", the song became the album's third release to reach the top of the US Billboard Hot 100.

The single was positively received by Chuck Taylor of Billboard, who called the song "unbelievable" and "absolutely stunning." He also noted its commercial potential, claiming "this song has #1 stamped across its heart."[21] The accompanying music video was directed by Diane Martel and features Tyrese as Monica's love interest.

Commercial performance

"Angel of Mine" became one of Monica's biggest international successes of the 1990s. It reached number one on the US Billboard Hot 100 and number two on the US Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs charts, becoming the seventh domestic top 10 hit of her career, and her third and last number 1 on the Hot 100 chart. "Angel of Mine" was eventually ranked number three on Billboard's Hot 100 1999 year-end charts, and reached number 62 on its decade-end chart. In addition, the song reached number 10 in Canada, the top 20 in Australia, and the top 40 in New Zealand.
