Jesus says that rejoicing goes on before (as in "in front of") the angels.
In other words, the One before whom all the angels eternally joyfully worship day and night without ceasing, the One who is Father, Son and Holy Spirit, is the one who rejoices the most when a person is converted.
As Mike Reeves pointed out, God is a bigger lover, poet and party animal than all the angels. When you rejoice over a Christian conversion, you rejoice not just with the angels, but with the biggest joy fountain of them all, God himself.
But then Zephaniah told us that, I was just too busy navel-gazing to notice.
