Heather Corcoran’s review of Angels Near for GoGirlsMusic.com:
Angels Near" is like a poker game with Stevie Nicks portrayed as the dealer, Tori Amos laying down a royal flush and Evanescence’s Amy Lee folding. It’s a dark collection of moody and intimate songs that flirt with tragic and haunting melodies. Alice Marie uses stretched out vocals to pierce through the lyrics, adding an eerie tone to the mood of the release. The title song, "Angels Near," a song about personal bouts of pain and fear, includes an unexpected change of emotion with a "carnival" flashback of sorts complete with roller coasters and carnival music. It’s a very modern, dark outlook on the singer-songwriter’s life displayed collectively in ten tracks of deep, poet lyrics. "Angels Near" is packed full of Alice Marie’s raw, edgy talent. It’s one beautiful song after another complete with a stunning voice sure to please any music fan.

Your heart’s desire may it soar. And bring you love filled life and more. While happiness lines up to knock at your door. Understand that is what I am here for.
You are precious to me as the golden sands That echo in the distance in foreign lands Where treasures abound throughout the night By saying what you mean and getting it right.
The deepest most sought after treasure of all Is what you’ll find inside your heart to call Whenever you feel the joy of someone Who cares for you as the earth looks to the sun.
This is what I share with you to tell Because I found that by wishing you well The space between us becomes even less And time becomes not only now there is happiness
Think of forever when you think of me For that is where I will always be Cheering you on with all my might And seeing the love shine back its light
