Video
Director: Nigel Dick
The regular video was shot in Lake Park, Roundwood, Co. Wicklow, Ireland on June 12th, 2004. Bride and groom were portrayed by Saileog Lally and Eoin Macken respectively. Lake Park is a 110-acre estate overlooking Lough Dan that is surrounded by woodlands which set the scene for the 1981 film "Excalibur". The eighteenth century house also provided inspiration for writer Edna O'Brien, who wrote the bestseller "The Country Girls" there, and poet Richard Murphy.
Art imitates life and vice versa: just a week before the video was shot there, a real wedding reception took place in the park.
There is a second live version which features clips of the European tour in 2004.
Nigel Dick also directed the videos for "Breathless", "What Can I Do" and "Only When I Sleep".
Trivia
"Angel" was the second single from "Borrowed Heaven".
