When the Angels Swing
}}
''When the Angels Swing'' is a swing album by German pop group No Angels, released by Cheyenne Records and Polydor in association with Universal Music on November 29, 2002. Recorded in promotion of a special big band concert at the Berlin Tränenpalast on October 2, 2002, the album differed highly from the group's previous, mainstream pop releases in that they performed their songs with blues and jazz arrangements. Musicians Jens Kuphal and Till Brönner were consulted to work on the album which was inspired by the New York City Stork Club and several 1940s swing standards. Aside from the title, ''When the Angel Swing'' is not directly associated with the No Angels's 2001 single, "When the Angels Sing."
While the album failed to chart on the Swiss albums chart, it managed to peak at number 9 in Germany and number 22 in Austria. Primarily produced and arranged by Till Brönner, it spawned the Alison Moyet cover "All Cried out" as a single. The rest of the tracklist primarily featured re-arranged tracks, taken from the group's albums ''Elle'ments'' and ''Now ... Us!'' except the only previously unreleased song "Funky Dance".
==Background==
In June 2002, the No Angels released their second album, ''Now... Us!'', which featured writing credits by all band members and received critical acclaim from many critics who had thought that the band would not last past their first album ''Elle'ments'' (2001). The album debuted at number one on the German Albums Chart and was eventually certified both platinum and double gold by the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI). Its leading single "Something About Us", a musical response to what the band felt was intense and sometimes unfair and inaccurate media criticism at the time—predominantly resulting from their casting band image—became the group's third non-consecutive number-one hit in Austria and Germany.〔(【引用サイトリンク】work=VanessaPetruo.tv )〕 Still during the recording of ''Now... Us!'' in spring 2002, the girls thought about taking another musical direction and how their songs would sound with a different musical approach. Inspired by Robbie Williams's cover album ''Swing When You're Winning'' (2002), in September 2002, the group took a few weeks off to prepare for a special swing concert at the Berlin Tränenpalast.〔
