All Angels singing at the Champion League Final 2011

Such a big deal for these Angels to take this job: singing at the Champion League Final  (match of Manchester United def. Barcelona) With thousand eyes watching at the Wembley Stadium, and 160 million viewers watching on their television, All Angels have already taken the world by storm.

Most of All Angels members (except Rachel) Melanie, Daisy, Charlotte, were on their exam week when they got prepared for the big event. But they were way too exicted for singing in such an internationally-known sport event. They tweeted: Saturday evening is drawing nearer! Exams will soon be over too! BRING ON SATURDAY! :-) R xxx 


At the event, All Angels sang the famous Champion League theme song (the one which inspired by Handel's "Zadok The Priest" arrangement). But they added some version of their own. Actually, it was an unexpected offer for them to sing there. They just got the project just weeks before the event went on. It was their "Starlight" EP producer, Matt Clifford, who used to made a commercial jingle. He lend the project to the girls. Fyi, in champion league final 2009, Andrea Bocelli was asked to sing the theme too.


As the big fan of them, I was really excited about the performance. First time to watch them LIVE via my local TV. Unfortunately, the camera wasn't so friendly to the girls. As I watched it, I could barely see the face of four members. The cameras were too busy taking all football players' faces. But, I could still hear they sang. Their version of the theme song was beautiful though. I think they should put it on their upcoming album or iTunes by now :)

Below, I attached a video (posted on YouTube by ryanmedia2009 - thanks Ryan) showing behind the scene of their preparation before hit the pitch of the Wembley. Via this video, you can hear too the clearer audio of their  version of Champion League theme song.
