Yesterday was Anita Baker's 59th birthday. Lalah Hathaway (daughter of Donny) and BJ the Chicago Kid paid homage by releasing a soothing cover of her classic tune "Angel."

You'd be hard-pressed to find an R&B duet from two more accomplished vocalists. Lalah and BJ's voices circle one another like two lovebirds soaring across the sky. A pared-down drum groove and sensuous guitar riffs set the mood while nestled in the shadows, letting Lalah and BJ take the spotlight, and melt your stresses away.

Quotable Lyrics

If I could I'd give you the world
Wrap it all around you
Won't be satisfied with just a piece of this heart
Dreams are dreams, some dreams come true
I found a real dream, baby, when I found you
You're so strong, but tender too
