Released in 1971, “Kiss an Angel Good Mornin’” is not only Charley Pride’s biggest hit but also one of the most iconic country songs of all time. The song offers a seemingly simple piece of advice: every morning, kiss the one you love and love them as if it were the very first day. Its upbeat, cheerful melody captures the positive energy of a fresh morning, while Charley’s warm, resonant voice brings a sense of trust and comfort. The lyrics are plain and unpretentious, yet carry a deep truth about love and the enduring strength of simple happiness. More than half a century later, “Kiss an Angel Good Mornin’” is still performed and cherished everywhere, because it’s not just about a romance — it’s a gentle reminder to treasure life’s small but precious moments every single day.

If you’ve ever wondered what the secret is to keeping love alive, Charley Pride had a pretty simple answer — and he sang it to the world in 1971. “Kiss an Angel Good Mornin’” wasn’t just a catchy country hit; it was a piece of timeless, heart-level advice wrapped in a melody you can’t help but hum.

The song is bright, cheerful, and impossible not to smile along with. Charley’s voice — warm, confident, and full of kindness — feels like it’s speaking straight to you, reminding you to start each day with love and to carry that feeling through everything you do. It’s the kind of wisdom you don’t need a long lecture for… just a kiss, a smile, and a heart that remembers why you fell in love in the first place.

More than fifty years later, people are still singing it, not just because it’s fun, but because it’s true. Love doesn’t always need grand gestures. Sometimes, it’s about the little rituals — the morning kiss, the gentle words, the everyday moments — that hold a life together.
