Critical reception

Music & Media wrote in their review that "participation is as simple as on Crystal Waters' Gypsy Woman (La Da Da La Da Dee) and Lavinia Jones' Sing It To You (Dee-Doob-Dee-Doo). The flamenco bit is another hook."[1]

Music video

The music video of "Angel (Ladadi O-Heyo)" was directed by German director Marcus Nispel.[2] It tells the story of two girls having sex with older men under hidden cameras. Then the girls are blackmailing those men with videotapes of the act. The girls drives around in a van and goes to a cafe where they tear down the place, threatening people with guns. The police comes and surrounds the place. After the girls refusing to come out and shoot a young man, the police attacks the cafe. They shoot at each other and a smoke grenade are sent in. When the girls comes out, one of them are being shot down, and the other arrested. In between this depiction, Plavka performs the song, looking at the camera through a porthole window.[3] There were released two versions of the video, an cencored and an uncencored version.
