Guardian Angel is a 1983 song by Drafi Deutscher.

The song was originally released by Drafi Deutscher under the pen name Masquerade. It charted in Germany as well as in several other nations and is the second most famous song by Deutscher after "Marmor, Stein und Eisen bricht" (engl. Marble, Stone and Iron Breaks). In the UK, the song was released in a version sung by Nino de Angelo who had also recorded German and Italian covers (see below). De Angelo's version reached #57 on the official UK charts.

A Live TV appearance of Masquerade was used as a music video.

In the same year, German singer Nino de Angelo released a German-language version called "Jenseits von Eden" ("East of Eden") as well as an album with the same name. There was also an Italian-language version of the song, which – due to a mistake – originally had the Spanish name La valle del Edén. In 1984, the Italian title was changed to the correct La valle dell'Eden.
