I've been trying to make a playlist of angel-themed songs for a while, and I'm short of ideas. Any suggestions?

So far I have:
  • Cowboy Junkies: Misguided Angel
  • Mylène Farmer: Diabolique mon ange
  • Massive Attack: Angel
  • Angel in the centerfold
... and of course the obvious one, Robbie Williams: Angels. But there's got to be more than that out there, I thought there would be loads when I started the list and then I just drew a blank!
OK, we have a nice selection. You're welcome to listen to them on Spotify: Link

There's A Song For the Angels by Great Lake Swimmers that might be the sort of thing you're looking for? (youtube link)

Are we going strictly by "word is in the title", here?

Mindy McCready's "Ten Thousand Angels" was the first thing that came to my mind.

...Well, okay, the first first thing I thought of was "Angels We Have Heard On High"! :D
