Misguided Angel - Cowboy Junkies - MP3 instrumental karaoke

"Misguided Angel" is one of the highlights from Cowboy Junkies’ critically acclaimed album The Trinity Session (1988), an LP that helped define their signature blend of alt-country, folk, and jazz-infused rock. The song, written by the band’s lead vocalist Margo Timmins and her brother Michael Timmins, exemplifies the band's ability to weave hauntingly poetic lyrics with lush, atmospheric instrumentation, creating a mood that is both introspective and emotionally charged. Opening with misty-eyed harmonica, "Misguided Angel" sets the tone for an emotional exploration of love, longing, and the complexities of human connection. The song’s instrumental arrangement is sparse yet deeply evocative, with Michael Timmins’ intricate guitar playing and a subtle bassline that supports Margo Timmins' ethereal vocals. Released as a single in 1989, "Misguided Angel" quickly became one of Cowboy Junkies’ most beloved tracks and remains a fan favorite.
