"She Talks to Angels" by The Black Crowes

Last updated 📅 2025-05-01

Listen to the haunting beauty of The Black Crowes' iconic 1991 acoustic rock ballad, "She Talks to Angels." A standout track from their debut Shake Your Money Maker, its poignant lyrics and soulful delivery created an enduring classic rock radio staple.

Released as a successful single from the multi-platinum album Shake Your Money Maker, "She Talks to Angels" showcased The Black Crowes' versatility beyond bluesy hard rock. Its stripped-down acoustic rock arrangement, featuring Rich Robinson's distinctive open-G tuning, perfectly complemented Chris Robinson's emotional storytelling vocals.

This powerful 1991 acoustic rock track delves into dark themes with empathy and grace. The compelling narrative, combined with the memorable melody and heartfelt performance, solidified "She Talks to Angels" as one of The Black Crowes' most beloved and signature songs.

SONG MEANING: The song paints a poignant portrait of a person, likely a young woman, deeply troubled and struggling with addiction, possibly heroin ("She paints her eyes as black as night now / Pulls those shades down tight"). "Talking to angels" is often interpreted as a metaphor for being high, detached from reality, or lost in the isolating world of drug abuse.
