"How Do You Talk to an Angel" is a song written by Steve Tyrell, Barry Coffing, and Stephanie Tyrell. It was the theme for the American TV series The Heights. The series follows the fictional band the Heights, and the ballad, recorded by the cast, was released as a single. It reached No. 1 on the US Billboard Hot 100 on November 14, 1992, but the series was canceled exactly one week after the song fell from its number-one position. Jamie Walters was the lead singer, with supporting vocals by cast mates Shawn David Thompson, Cheryl Pollak, Charlotte Ross and Zachary Throne. In 1993, the song was nominated for an Emmy Award for "Outstanding Individual Achievement in Music and Lyrics". The Emmy went to the song "Sorry I Asked" by Kander and Ebb from Liza Minnelli Live from Radio City Music Hall. No follow-up singles under the Heights name were ever commercially released. Promo CDs were issued to radio for a follow-up "I'm Still on Your Side", but there was no commercial issue for this track...
