About Angeles

Taking a chance is always a fearsome thing. Relocation, especially to somewhere as gold-gilt and Gomorrah-esque as Los Angeles is a huge risk which can hold fame and riches in store or another tally to add onto its wall of ruined lives. Elliott switched from working with indie record labels in Portland to signing with Spielberg-founded Dreamworks Records after this song was released. Angeles seems to be Smith’s internal struggle with this huge decision for both his personal life and musical career ending in the decision he ultimately reached .
