It’s okay if you like splatter patter death disks, but that was done to death in the late 50s and early 60s; Tell Laura I Love her - Ricky Valance Johnny Remember Me - John Leyton Leader of the Pack - Shangri La’s El Paso (In my opinion, the best one) - Marty Robbins Ebony Eyes - The Everly’s Running Bear - Johnny Preston Teen Angel - Mark Dinning Don’t Take your Guns to Town - Johnny Cash Dead Man’s Curve - Jan and Dean Ode to Billie Joe (Another very good one) - Bobby Gentry Heck, that’s just a few of them … they were ten a penny at one time, though to be fair, many of them were quite poignant and tragic young love is almost guaranteed to tear at the heart strings. Nevertheless, this one is quite naughty in that it’s cynical in its reworking of what was then a recent ABBA hit (that was given a more Romeo and Juliet sounding plot as a thin disguise; and even then, Blue Oyster Cult had done the R & J thing far more credibly, again only fairly recently in a far more eerie and decidedly non sugary fashion with Don’t Fear the Reaper). Even the song that it brazenly rips off - Fernando - was a death disc in it’s original version on Anni-Frid’s solo album, a year before it was re-recorded by all the members of ABBA. But by then it became two old revolutionaries reminiscing, instead of dying. I don’t want to take your enjoyment. But it’s definitely not a classic. Although I’m a rock man, I can give ABBA a lot of love for creating some great melodious harmonies, in multiple languages sometimes!, but this is derivative and definitely not a world beater. In fact, in the early 70s, they spent all their time copying Dawn until post Waterloo, someone changed the lineup so drastically that they were the same band in name only but they were now aping ABBA’s style; what with it guaranteeing the people behind the group a lottery winners style jackpot to shoot for if successful.
Living in Ibiza I had a shit car no radio and subjected my daughter to this song as know every word! I love it. Bless you for happy childhood memories xx

When I was a kid I used to get them mixed up with abba 50 years later I still get mixed up this song always got played in are house as well as Billy don't be a hero and save all your kisses for me lol 3 my childhood memories songs 😂❤❤❤❤
That same sort of ABBA vibe that worked in 1974, worked again in 1976 for TBoM to win the Eurovision Song Contest, and then after this and Figaro etc. A definite ABBA formula at work here and with a Euro take on the emerging American disco theme. Just my opinion, I might be wrong.
To the lady who said it's a rip-off of Fernando, Fernando was released in 1976. Angela was released in 1969. But I see what you mean they are quite similar.
if they cant be arsed by singing then they are lazy and yes fake. Face Facts, if a singer can pend time composing songs then why cant they actually SING the song? Go on keep arguing with me over this!! @@pastorbri
Id never heard this song... As a Mexican it's hilarious to me, Angelo it's not the most Mexican name jajajaja. But if in this year we are a sepia narco cliché, I think it was worst in that time 😅
@@JohnleslieBlackburn-ps2nr how good is a matter of personal opinion. I like both songs but to me Fernando stands out because of the lead vocal from Frida. I’m not sure what your source is as far as release dates, however, based on the UK charts, “Fernando” hit #1 in 1976 and “Angelo” hit #1 in 1977.

Loved this song while growing up. 😊
RIP Martin, deepest sympathy to his family, fans and his of course his fellow members of brotherhood of man. 🙏 to you all at this sad time.

My friend called her son Angelo after this song...he was born in 1978.
I loved this song growing up, it’s a really dark story and their performance doesn’t really do it justice. Still it’s a great memory!
I remember this song being out in 1978 when I was seven in Whitby on holiday I'm now sat in Whitby at work listening to it 46 years later still good song.😂😂
was telling my wife same same age 1971
RIP Martin 😢
Condolences to his family and the band.
LOVE!!!! 70's music🎉 Soooo much better than the forgettable trash around now 😐...
totally true ,hate this voiced synth garbage we get now
It’s okay if you like splatter patter death disks, but that was done to death in the late 50s and early 60s;
Tell Laura I Love her - Ricky Valance
Johnny Remember Me - John Leyton
Leader of the Pack - Shangri La’s
El Paso (In my opinion, the best one) - Marty Robbins
Ebony Eyes - The Everly’s
Running Bear - Johnny Preston
Teen Angel - Mark Dinning
Don’t Take your Guns to Town - Johnny Cash
Dead Man’s Curve - Jan and Dean
Ode to Billie Joe (Another very good one) - Bobby Gentry

Its a shameful ABBA rip off
I like all brotherhood man songs I meet them twice as well with my late mum at warners gunton hall

still a great tune, RIP Martin
lyrics: "they took their lives at night and in the morning light they found them on the sand they saw them lying there hand in hand"
music: 😀🎼😊🎸🙂🎤
This song is Classic ❤
Many memories growing up in the mid 70s a time that i will never ever forget ever
RIP Martin Lee :(
Im glad its not just me - these gurls sound exactly like ABBA. If only gurls sang that way today with that certian sound.
The opening guitar is a bit like Hey You by Pink Floyd which came out over two years after Angelo! RIP Martin Lee.
RIP Martin Lee!!
My 1st song which I have learned
1993
Such a sad song 😢xx
I love my angelo..❤
A classic from brotherhood of Man 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Running away together Angelo
I listen this song since 1977 💖💖💖
I listened to it last time probably in 1978, but still was in my head 🤩
Lovely song
Long ago,
High on a mountain in Mexico
Lived a young shepherd boy, Angelo
Who met a young girl and he loved her so
Rich was she,
Came from a very high family,
Angelo knew it could never be,
They ran away to their destiny
Running away together
Running away forever
Angelo
Running away from danger
Hiding from every stranger
Angelo
They knew it wasn't wrong
They found a love so strong
They took their lives at night
And in the morning light
They found them on the sand
They saw them lying there, hand-in-hand
