* Composed by [[Murray Gold]], "My Angel Put the Devil in Me" was the third original song commissioned for the revived ''[[Doctor Who]]'' series and the first to not be connected with one of the [[Christmas special]]s. It was the first of these songs to be actually performed on screen. Actress [[Miranda Raison]], who portrayed Tallulah in the episode, sang the version that appears in the episode. Later, when Gold expanded the song into a full-length version for the Third Series soundtrack CD, [[Yamit Mamo]] was hired to record that version. Mamo's version was later heard in part in ''[[The End of Time (TV story)|The End of Time]]''.
* The lyrics "one and one and one is three" also appear in the {{w|The Beatles}} song ''{{w|Come Together}}''.
* Raison's performance marks the first time an original song was actually shown being performed on screen in the revived series of ''Doctor Who''. A song original to ''Doctor Who'', "[[The Ballad of the Last Chance Saloon]]" was seen performed onscreen in the [[First Doctor]] serial ''[[The Gunfighters]]''.

Lyrics performed by Tallulah

You lured me in with your cold grey eyes
Your simple smile, your bewitching lies
One and one and one is three
My bad, bad Angel, the Devil in me!
You put the Devil in me...
You put the Devil in me!
You put the Devil in me!
My bad, bad Angel, you put the Devil in me...

Lyrics heard at the bar

I'm a country girl, I ain't seen a lot
But you came along, and my heart went pop
You took a little streetcar to my heart
And an apple of love fell off my apple cart
You looked at me, my heart began to pound
You weren't the sort of guy I thought would stick around
Hey, but it don't have to be eternally
My bad, bad Angel put the Devil in me
You put the Devil in me...
You lured me in with your cold grey eyes
Your simple smile, your bewitching lies
One and one and one is three
My bad, bad Angel, the Devil in me!
You put the Devil in me!
My bad, bad Angel, you put the Devil in me!
