In the UK, Angeleyes was released as the double side of A along with Voulez-Vous . Epic , the British label ABBA, considered that such a release would be more popular with listeners.
The song “Angeleyes” is included in the official ABBA compilation “ More ABBA Gold: More ABBA Hits ” (1993) and “ The Definitive Collection ” (2001), as well as in “ Thank You for the Music ” .
Coincidentally, "Angeleyes" ABBA entered the top twenty in the UK at the same time as another song called "Angel Eyes" from British rock band Roxy Music . The last track was written by musicians Brian Ferry and Andy Mackay , and although these two songs have lyrical similarities, the song of Ferry and Mackay is more reminiscent of modern pop rock .
