Help me find a song

[mcmel]

I've been hearing a song on the radio and every now and then a random guy comes in the song and in a really deep voice he says the word "angel" for no damn reason. Does ANYONE know what song I'm talking about? It's a rap song I think if that helps any.

It's driving me nuts that I can't think of it.

There's an app for that.

Kidding. It's Robin Thicke. But it reminds me so much of Most Beautiful Girl in the Room.

I want to give you so many hugs right now.

Maybe because it's so late, but I'm just dying laughing at this.

I didn't have the song playing, I literally only knew one word which was "angel" and I doubt if I sang it into the app it would guess correctly.

Shazam works by listening to the song to identify it, right?

Shazam only works when it's listening to a recorded version of the song, like on the radio. DH and I were at a concert last year, and the band played a song I didn't recognize. When I tried to Shazam it (yes, it's a verb as well  ), I got a pop-up that said it didn't work on live music.
I have XM in the car, so the radio displays the song titles and artist. I still use it in the car, because for a lot of songs it will give you the song lyrics.

ETA: Also, I've found song titles by Googling the few words from the song that I know. That's how I know that the Black Keys sing Little Black Submarines, but Googling "a broken heart is blind."
