Wild Angels is the third studio album by the American country music artist Martina McBride. The album produced the singles "Safe in the Arms of Love", the title track, "Swingin' Doors", "Phones Are Ringin' All Over Town" and "Cry on the Shoulder of the Road". The title track was McBride's first number one hit on the US Billboard Hot Country Songs charts. The album was certified Platinum by the RIAA.

Also included on this album is a cover of "Two More Bottles of Wine", which was previously a #1 hit for Emmylou Harris in 1978. "Safe in the Arms of Love" was originally recorded by Wild Choir on their self-titled 1986 album, Baillie & the Boys on their 1989 album Turn the Tide, Kennedy Rose on their 1994 album Walk the Line, and Michelle Wright on her 1994 album The Reasons Why. Wright's version of the song was a Top 10 hit in Canada. "A Great Disguise" would later be recorded by Pam Tillis on her 1998 album Every Time.
