My Little Angel (William Shakespeare Song)

"My Little Angel" is a song written by ex-Easybeats members Harry Vanda and George Young in 1974 and was recorded by Johnny Cabe, aka stage act William Shakespeare. It was Shakespeare's second big hit in Australia and his first number one, making the number-one spot in Australia for three weeks in early 1975.

After this hit, Shakespeare faded from the Australian charts. The single had a "jingle bell" style backing track, perhaps hoping to capture the Christmas 1974 market, as the single was first released in November of that year.

Famous quotes containing the words angel and/or shakespeare:

    The garden flew round with the angel,
    The angel flew round with the clouds,
    And the clouds flew round and the clouds few round
    And the clouds flew round with the clouds.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    Neither a borrower nor a lender be,
    For loan oft loses both itself and friend,
    And borrowing dulls the edge of husbandry.
    This above all: to thine own self be true,
    And it must follow, as the night the day,
    Thou canst not then be false to any man.
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
