"Angel Say No" is a song by American rock band Tommy Tutone and the lead single from their self-titled debut studio album (1980). A new wave song, it peaked at number 38 on the Billboard Hot 100 in June 1980.
Composition Mark Deming of AllMusic wrote the song "recalls Tom Petty's earlier sides with its lean but muscular arrangement and pleading lyric". The lyrics find the narrator urging a woman to heed his warnings.
