"When You're Smiling" is a 1928 song written by Larry Shay, Mark Fisher, and Joe Goodwin. It has been recorded by various artists, including Louis Armstrong, and is regarded as a pop and jazz standard.^{scope: entire paragraph}

Angelina first performed the song live in public in early summer 2015 at the Hemnes Båt & Fjord Festival, shortly after she had filmed the music video for it. The video was posted almost two years later in June 2017 to YouTube. She then also performed the song a month later in her summer tour concerts.
