The song 's narrator describes her feelings about a one - night stand : `` If morning 's echo says we 've sinned , well , it was what I wanted now . '' Taylor produced a recording of the song with Evie Sands , but the financial straits of Cameo - Parkway Records , which had Sands on their roster , reportedly prevented either that version 's release or its distribution . Other early recordings of the song were made in 1967 by Danny Michaels for Lee Hazlewood 's LHI label and by UK vocalist Billie Davis . The song finally became a hit in 1968 through a recording by Merrilee Rush , made that January at American Sound Studios in Memphis , with Chips Moman and Tommy Cogbill producing . Rush had come to Memphis through the group she fronted , the Turnabouts , being the opening act for a Paul Revere and the Raiders tour . While in Memphis , the Raiders recorded the album Going to Memphis at American Sound Studios , an association which led to Rush 's discovery by Tommy Cogbill , who had been hoping to find the right voice for `` Angel of the Morning '' -- he had kept a tape of the demo of that song constantly in his pocket for several months . Rush recorded the song and the tracks which would comprise her Angel of the Morning album with the American Sound house band , even though the single and the album would be credited to the group `` Merrilee Rush & the Turnabouts . '' The single version was released in February 1968 , and reached the Top 10 on the Billboard Hot 100 that June , peaking at No. 7 . A No. 1 hit in Canada , Australia and New Zealand , and also gave Rush a hit in the Netherlands ( No. 4 ) . The song earned Rush a Grammy nomination for Best Contemporary - Pop Vocal Performance , Female . Rush recorded a new version of the song for her 1977 eponymous album release . ( Rush 's version of `` Angel of the Morning '' would be featured on the soundtrack of the 1999 film Girl , Interrupted , whose time frame is 1967 and 1968 , in which author - composer Chip Taylor 's niece Angelina Jolie had a starring role . ) In the United Kingdom , where Rush 's version stalled at No. 55 , a rendition by P.P. Arnold , who had sung background on the 1967 Billie Davis version , reached No. 29 in August 1968 . In 1970 a rendition by Connie Eaton reached No. 34 on the Billboard C&W charts . In 1977 , Mary Mason also had a UK Top 30 hit with her version , which was actually a medley of two Chip Taylor songs , `` Angel of the Morning '' and `` Any Way That You Want Me , '' reaching No. 27 . Also in 1977 the British act Guys ' n ' Dolls had a hit in the Netherlands with the song , and their version reached No. 11 on the Dutch charts . In 1978 a release by Melba Montgomery reached No. 22 on the Billboard C&W chart . `` Angel of the Morning '' Single by Juice Newton from the album Juice B - side `` Headin ' for a Heartache '' Released February 1981 Format 7 '' ( 45 rpm ) Recorded 4 September 1980 Genre Soft rock , Country rock Length 3 : 49 3 : 57 ( 7 `` ) Label Capitol 4976 Songwriter ( s ) Chip Taylor Producer ( s ) Richard Landis Juice Newton singles chronology `` You Fill My Life '' ( 1980 ) `` Angel of the Morning '' ( 1981 ) `` Queen of Hearts '' ( 1981 ) `` You Fill My Life '' ( 1980 ) `` Angel of the Morning '' ( 1981 ) `` Queen of Hearts '' ( 1981 ) The highest - charting and best - selling version in the United States was recorded and released in 1981 by country - rock singer Juice Newton for her album Juice . Newton re-interpreted the song at the suggestion of Steve Meyer , who promoted Capitol Records singles and albums to radio stations and felt a version of `` Angel of the Morning '' by Newton would be a strong candidate for airplay . Newton would state that she would never have herself thought of recording `` Angel of the Morning , '' and even though she immediately recognized the song when Meyer played it for her ( quote ) : `` I ( had n't been ) really aware of that song because ... when ( it ) was popular I was listening to folk music and R&B and not Pop , and that was a very Pop song . '' Newton 's version reached No. 4 on the Billboard Hot 100 , No. 22 on the Billboard country music chart , and spent three weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard adult contemporary chart in April of that year . The recording also earned Newton a Grammy nomination , and in the same category as Rush 's 1968 hit . More than 1 million units of Newton 's single of the song were sold in the United States , and the single reached the Top 10 in a number of other countries , including Canada and Australia . Notably , Newton 's video for `` Angel of the Morning '' was the first country - music music video aired on MTV ; it first aired in 1981 .

( Newton recorded the song again in 1998 for her The Trouble with Angels album . ) The song `` Angel , '' released by reggae artist Shaggy , heavily samples `` Angel of the Morning , '' using the melody , but with different words , for the sung refrain .

Criticism ( edit ) `` Mary , Did You Know ? '' remains a popular piece of Christmas music , although some criticize it for what they perceive as a lack of Scriptural or theological depth . For example , Lutheran writer Holly Scheer , in addressing the rhetorical - question title of the song writes that those familiar with `` the biblical account of Christ 's conception and birth should n't need to ask if Mary knew , because the Bible plainly tells us she did . '' On the other hand the Roman Catholic author Karl Erickson implored people to praise `` Mary , Did You Know ? '' as a `` beautiful expression of God 's love for all of us '' and responded to criticism of the piece , stating that `` Mary , Did You Know is a song and not a theological essay . Even as simple Christmas music , however , it does a fine job conveying the beauty and profound mystery of the Incarnation . Yes , there is some poetic license taken within the lyrics , but much less than is taken within innumerable other songs we are asked to sing regularly -- Sing a New Church , for example .

Thailand ( siam ) ( edit ) After Japan 's defeat in 1945 , with the help of Seri Thai , Thailand was treated as a defeated country by the British and French , although American support mitigated the Allied terms . Thailand was not occupied by the Allies , but it was forced to return the territory it had regained to the British and the French . In the postwar period Thailand had relations with the United States , which it saw as a protector from the communist revolutions in neighbouring countries . Occupation of Japan ( edit ) At the end of World War II , Japan was occupied by the Allied Powers , led by the United States with contributions also from Australia , India , New Zealand and the United Kingdom . This foreign presence marked the first time in its history that the island nation had been occupied by a foreign power . The San Francisco Peace Treaty , signed on September 8 , 1951 , marked the end of the Allied occupation , and after it came into force on April 28 , 1952 , Japan was once again an independent country . International military tribunal for the Far East ( edit ) During the occupation leading Japanese war crime charges were reserved for those who participated in a joint conspiracy to start and wage war , and were brought against those in the highest decision - making bodies ; `` Class B '' crimes were reserved for those who committed `` conventional '' atrocities or crimes against humanity ; `` Class C '' crimes were reserved for those in `` the planning , ordering , authorization , or failure to prevent such transgressions at higher levels in the command structure . '' Twenty - eight Japanese military and political leaders were charged with Class A crimes , and more than 5,700 Japanese nationals were charged with Class B and C crimes , mostly entailing prisoner abuse . China held 13 tribunals of its own , resulting in 504 convictions and 149 executions . The Japanese Emperor Hirohito and all members of the imperial family such as Prince Asaka , were not prosecuted for involvement in any the three categories of crimes . Herbert Bix explains that `` the Truman administration and General MacArthur both believed the occupation reforms would be implemented smoothly if they used Hirohito to legitimise their changes . '' As many as 50 suspects , such as Nobusuke Kishi , who later became Prime Minister , and Yoshisuke Aikawa , head of the zaibatsu Nissan , and future leader of the Chuseiren , were charged but released without ever being brought to trial in 1947 and 1948 . Shiro Ishii received immunity in exchange for data gathered from his experiments on live prisoners . The lone dissenting judge to exonerate all indictees was Indian jurist Radhabinod Pal . The tribunal was adjourned on 12 November 1948 .
