I thought "Send me an Angel" was done by a group called Real Life, or is this a totally different song you're talking about?

Quoting:
I loved..

I'll see you in my dreams-Giant
Don't close your eyes-Kix
When the children cry-Whitelion
Heaven-Warrant
I remember you-Skid Row
The search is over-Survivor
Send me an angel-Scorpions
Don't know what you got till it's gone-Cinderella

Yeah there's two different songs with the same name.  I like the other one too though.  One is fast and one is slow.  But totally different songs.

My fav's were

Goodbye To Romance - Ozzy w/Randy
Bringin On the Heartbreak- Def Leppard
Too Late For Love- Def Leppard
When The Children Cry- White Lion
Sister Christian- Night Ranger

When the Children Cry is a song I put into my setlist to this day every gig. That song and Imagine by Lennon are prob the two best 'human condition' songs ever written.
