Lorne and Caritas

Main articles: Lorne & Caritas

Lorne was born in a dimension called Pylea, a world without music. In 1996, he happened upon a dimensional portal and was sucked through it. He landed in Los Angeles and discovered music and culture. Soon after he opened up a karaoke bar, Caritas. He honed the ability to read people's auras when they sang and he could give those people direction.

Some key musical moments include:

• The first song from Caritas seen on screen is Lorne singing Gloria Gaynor's "I Will Survive" . Lorne was seen in many more Season 2 episodes singing at his bar.
• In the same episode, Angel, a long-time fan of Barry Manilow, sang "Mandy". When he needed guidance once again he chose Wang Chung's "Everybody Have Fun Tonight" .
• Cordy, Wes and Gunn drunkenly sing Queen's "We Are The Champions" after they have been sacked from Angel Investigations .
• Darla sings Ella Fitzgerald's "Ill Wind" when asking Lorne for advice. .
• Lindsey McDonald sings "L.A. Song". The music and lyrics written by David Greenwalt . Eve also sang a little bit of this to Lorne to make sure she didn't have anything to do with what was happening to Fred .
• The last performance seen at Caritas was Patsy Cline's "Crazy" sung by Fred .
• After the destruction of Caritas, in the Angel finale, Lorne visits another bar and sings Regina Belle's "If I Ruled The World" .
