She pays homage to the originals and she improves them and gives the song new life.
she is not gifted, she is "THE GIFT"
How a 9 year old even KNOWS this song EXITS....is UNREAL....let alone The fact that she ARRANGED this!!!.......MIND BOGGLING!!
Our known Universe is 13.5 billion years old. We got to be on the same planet as Angelina at exactly the right time! Yes!!!!
Exactly!!!!
She arranges all the music for every song she sings. She does it all.
Guys, the people she works with in the bands call her the Boss.
Angelina has it inbuilt to the very core of her marrow where every blood cell begins.
She was feeding on Jazz through her mother's placenta.
Gifted, talented, hardworking and exclusively dedicated to her multiple genres. Amazing
Our angel Angelina Jordan is the best female singer on earth (in my opinion, of course)...She is incredible and I follow everything that comes from her..."Angels team"
Her Soul is coming out of her mouth!!!!!.....excellent
Gentlemen, Thank you for such insightful reaction!!! You really nailed it when you mentioned how she kept "Screamin' Jay... Hawkins" in mind. Paying a true homage to the original creator!! And then making it her own as well.
One of unbelievable aspects of this song is how completely relaxed she is. She could not produce the variety of sounds , tone, and power without being totally relaxed from her head to her toes.
best reaction.
Gentlemen...you did yourself proud reacting to this most excellent performance...one of a kind! Welcome to the rabbit hole!
Angelina is by far the best the world has to offer she is just the best now and to be honest I personally thank ever
Great to see Angelina Jordan (again!!), she is just remarkable. She wrote her own song?? Unbelievable!! 😲💝
great reaction....thank you
I love how you guys are able to explain, define, dissect, and make revealing sense of the performances in your Reactions. And still AJ leaves you, like all others, nearly speechless. Her respectful foundation from iconic mentors like Billie, Ella, Etta, and the others since, incorporated into her own style, sound, skills, and talent is irresistible. Watch her face closely in this performance and you see her eyes and expressions knowing exactly what each note of her band is playing. She's the Boss in her recording sessions. What a special artist and her age then. As her tribute to Mr. Hawkins she took his song that was a parody to get attention to get tv bookings, and she made a serious jazz piece of this highly passionate song.
She WILL put a spell on you after this, you have been warned. You ought to check out Screamin Jay Hawkins (1956) version which she emulates so well. Enjoy I want to see the sheer joy on your faces. The Countdown is on.. greetings from Manchester UK xx
👍👏👏👏💯 *AJ* 💯👏👏👏👍
Oh my, lookout boys you are about to be hooked. The Barefoot princess will put a spell on you. I would like to see you both react to a song called "How Great Thow Art" An Elvis Presley cover by her also. Enjoy this long ride.
Thanks Burak! We will have to definitely check this one out at some point!
That my favorite too 😊
Looking forward to this ...
You've discovered the greatest female singer in the planet, IMO
Check out diana ankudinova can't help falling in love she's the best
Excited for the journey
Angelina is one of the most addictive singers I have ever listened to, & one of the very few, that can pull you right into the song, making you feel, every word, every note, & every emotion. ❤💙 I always have this feeling that Angelina is not only channeling some of these late great singers, but that they also pass through her, when she is singing their song ❤💙 A rare beauty, in every sense of the word ❤💙 If there was ever a reason to believe in something greater than us, or in reincarnation, Angelina Jordan is it ❤💙 Loved your reaction!!! ❤💙 ***RIP SCREAMIN JAY HAWKINS***
She is half Swedish, Quarter Persian and Quarter Japanese Born in Oslo Norway, she speaks 5 languages and plays Piano , Guitar , Violin, and Flute. You were right her school taught her to deconstruct a song, study it and then reconstruct it and only then Perform it, she can sometimes do it quickly in her head.... she is very bright.
She was born in Norway to a Norwegian father and Iranian mother.
It wasn't long after she entered the studio, everybody in the bldg. called her The Boss! She knew exactly what she wanted and how to achieve it. Angilina Jordan is the future. 🇺🇸👍🔥💯⭐
The boss!!
@@JaredandJordan She wrote adjustments to the arrangement and the band leader smiled when he realized what she wants.
Watch her movements when she is not singing and the band is playing. She knows exactly when each note is going to be played.
You should watch her in studio singing i who have nothing when she was 6 she will blow your mind
She is a Prodigy Of all Vocals and Singing Music Instruments. It’s a Gifted Child of Father In Heaven Guys she’s Amazing..
Gentlemen...............THIS was BRILLIANT!!!!!!!!! Very, very well done. Thank you so much!!
Thank you Bill!!
This is the most remarkable recording in the last 30 years. Angelina is undoubtedly a genius and this proves it. The song doesn't even have a melody, really, but she finds the music in it. 😎
Listen to the studio version, and you will see that Angelina is close to it.
You are like 60. Stop. You old, creepy Angelina weirdos are so scary.
@@Hey_Jamie Tremble in fear, my friend. Your time will come.😎
You guys are in for the biggest treat ever I promise you
@@Hey_Jamie You are right, someone are creepy, but you top them all regarding creepy!! Will not say what I think of people like you 2k!! Respect other people and you will be respected! Learn from Angelina!
Greatest talent that ever walked the earth….
Me again… English is her third language. You two are fabulous I love your comments. You are such lovely guys
Take care look after yourselves you are precious
Best statement by reactors. Let's just let it breathe for a moment. Loved it.
Happy you found her. Yes her Angels are devoted. 5 mins after Angelina arrived at the studio she started arranging and all people including the band starting calling her the boss. Musical Genius
She actually arranges all her songs with the musicians, she is frankly a gift to this earth and the BEST voice alive. Love watching you both and I admire your research into the original songs she chooses to sing and you are both adorable and so honest.
She was born a legend.
You could have been warned. Now the spell is cast , which turned all of us to angels before. 😉She is a master of channeling. The person, who was and is inspiration for her, introducing her to jazz, empowering her, is her Grandma, Iranian artist Mery Zamani, the woman, who handed over the candle to her in the beginning. There is a strong bonding between these both. At "Norway's Got Talent", in the age of 7/8 (she won) she covered Billie Holiday, who is her absolute role model. She also did a breathtaking version of "I'm A Fool To Want Yo" - acappella. Some talked of reincarnation. I like this thought, because Billie Holiday had such a hard life. She would deserve, to grow up so protected. Btw. , the co-musicians in the band, she was working with, called her "the boss", because she was so professional, working seriously, respectful and humble, , with a clear image, what she wanted (wants). Angelina speaks 3 languages fluidly: Norwegian, Farsi and English. Her maternal Grandfather was Japanese, her father is Swedish, so she speaks a little Japanese and Swedish too. You are really great reactors, I love your ability for reception. ✌🏼👍🏼
👌😎
yes. My comment basically, before I scrolled down. She channels.
Thank you for this knowledge Markus. Appreciate you!
@@McDevittMike, Angelina does not channel another great artist of the past like you and others say, nor does she have a thousand voices like others say. She sings with her very own voice, only. She does use aspects of other great singers, but she never mimics them.
Very well said ,i to have come under her spell. I love watching reactors being put under her spell. I have been watching Angelina now for a couple of months and i swear it only gets better every time i watch her , i think I've probably watched about 50 reactions to i put a spell on you and i can't stop watching. I'm wondering how I'm going to fit in all her other covers .spellbound and loving it😊🌏
She's an old soul.The queen of Jazz.
Without Angelina, I would have never heard of Screaming Jay Hawkins, I would never been able to pay respect to him as an outstanding and amazing artist. She also has an intriguing cover/jam session on another song from him, "Portrait of a man", which she sings as "Portrait of a child". One of my favourite covers by her.
"She's burning a candle with his face on it!" Love it, guys. Exactly. Nothing but respect from AJ in every performance.
You guys are great! Loving that I found you. There is a video of a very young Angelina, maybe even younger than she is here, walking to the music store filled with albums of old singers, jazz etc. she is just sorting through and carrying albums into a booth to listen. We had such places when I was young. I haven’t seen one in the states for many a long year. God Bless Norway for having such a place for this child to spend time.
Once you hear this young woman’s incredible voice you are hooked. She has many brilliant covers. This one and my other favourite is I’m still holding out for you. She is talented beyond anyone I have ever listened too. Get goosebumps every song she sings.
When ask if she got nervous before a performance she said "No" and added:
“When I sing, I go to another world. The world is endless. It's like, full of happiness. I love it. It's amazing. And when I am on stage, I don't want to go [leave the stage]. [laughing]. I just want to be on stage"
A snippet of Skaylan’s interview of Angelina Jordan (age 12) on Norwegian TV - November 2018
Just have to add, that you 2 are the best addition to Angelina's reactors in recent times. Very thoughtful and articulate and your "duende" term in your last reaction was a big hit.
I really love your Angelina Jordan reactions. She is just the greatest female jazz/blues/soul singer of our time.
You see her writing a note to the bandleader at the very beginning of the video. Those were her last minute “wishes” as she called them, basically her directions on how she wanted the music to be played. So yes, she plans the music as well as the singing.
“She studies, embodies and shares.” You are so right. Excellent reaction! And yes, Christina Aguilera is probably the closest you can get in terms of pure vocal talent. But there is a huge difference in terms of musical understanding. Christina was all pyrotechnics all the time, doing everything because she could. Going forward, you’ll see that Angelina only ever does what she needs to communicate the meaning of the song so that you can FEEL it. The fun thing about this particular number, is that it is so theatrical that Angelina can for once go all out with vocal techniques a nine year old shouldn’t even know about, never mind master. And it has duende by the bucketload!
On point. What came to me nie od that she is singing these words to us, the listeners. She has just announced to us that she has just put a spell on us. We are hers now. Each time people first heard her they got enchanted and blessed. Before we get to know her we do not love her. But she loves us anyhow. The words on the lyrics speak to us.
She has a rabid following. We’ll all be back to see your reactions to Angelina Jordan. She’s a force to be reckoned with. Her recording label was so savvy to sign her.
How can a nine year old girl express the soul and life experience of a 45 year old woman?
Great analyse, Guys, and welcome to the wonderful word of AJ.
Welcome to the party, guys. You've stumbled down the rabbit hole with the rest of us! You have no idea what treats you've got coming. Among the things no one seems to be able to explain is how in the world this young woman can convey such depth of emotion in her singing. When she does a cover, you suddenly realize that while you may have heard the original hundreds of times you never FELT the song until Angelina sang it. Be warned. She WILL eventually reduce you to tears. It happens to all of us.
So true
That's AJ, always having deep respect for the original creator...and yet making the song her own...That's take tremendous talent. You will find that in every song she covers. Another face of AJ, "Song for A ". There is so many to discover...endless journey...
Angelina is the epitome of a true artiste! She is....MUSIC!!!
She has the ability to capture the essence of what makes a song special & then channel that essence then make it completely her own while still paying homage to the original.
Screaming Jay, he was the bomb! ✌🏼❤️
One of the best reactions to Angelina I have heard! And I have heard a lot!!!😉
Great reaction. Only Angelina knows what she can really do with her voice. She is teasing us for over 10 years now. Always smiling at the end, her Mona Lisa smile. Subscribed.
Muy cierto , tines toda la razon
I agree Andrew she knows exactly what she is doing
Thanks for subscribing Andre!
Oh my, every reactor to Angelina’s music usually goes into it with nearly the same amount of background information as you two guys have.
It is SO satisfying to hear a reaction that has so thoroughly utilized this background information in order to understand this once in a lifetime artist. Angelina’s incomparable music deserves it - thank you for sharing it with us.
As to “cultural appropriation”... that argument will be blown out of the water when you hear MULTIPLE covers of Frank Sinatra’s music of the 60’s, or MULTIPLE covers of Queen or Amy Winehouse, or many others.
I can’t wait for your next reaction! 🖤👣
Hi, Peter! Did you mean to type "I wish every reactor went into the background information as you two guys have"? In my experience, very few Reactors even bother to do so.
Yes, Albert. You said more accurately what I was thinking. I was trying to indicate that many commenters provide background about Angelina to reactors, but many of them don’t take the time to read the comments before proceeding to their next Angelina reaction.
What I failed to acknowledge is what you just pointed out... that many reactors also don’t bother doing a little upfront research that would otherwise improve their reactions. Jared and Jordan are definitely not in that category - they do their homework ahead of time and it shows in their well researched, excellent reaction. Thanks Albert for clearing that up and pointing out what I should have! 👍😉
Thank you Peter! Appreciate you. Her work music completely deserves a deep analysis to be fully appreciated. See you Monday!
I’m really enjoying watching you two react to this wonderful prodigy. She does boggle the mind. And takes your breath away. At this age and up to early teens I think she studied other singers and channeled their voices. That’s not at all a bad thing. All vocalists do it. But at 15-16 I’d say Angelina has found her own very distinctive voice. Taking from all those influences. My hope is that she will continue singing jazz. Though I know her plans will be to reach a wider audience. (Jazz is a hard sell) She needs to cover more Winehouse as that music crosses both genres. And her voice lends itself to Amy’s music. Anyway… I love watching your video with your sister listening to STAY. It’s also fun to watch some vocal coaches listen to and analyze what AJ is doing with her voice. You might want to check them out.
In an interview a couple of years after Angelina was on Norway's Got Talent, Omer Bhatti (one of judges) was asked if Angelina was "the real deal." He responded: "At the second rehearsal [when she did "Bang Bang"] we saw how she owned the stage, directed the bass player, and was in complete control. We knew then that she was a star." Here's the video containing Omer's interview: ruclips.net/video/j9Fw97Ckvg4/видео.html.
Angelina may not "arrange" music in the sense of writing out every note of every part for each accompanist or band member. But she clearly (and politely) communicates in rehearsal exactly how she wants it to sound. This is why they call her "the Boss": she knows what she wants, and politely lets everyone know. The page she handed the director at the beginning of this session is an example: the director described it was a list of her "wishes" (as in "I wish you would do this when we get to this point..."). To see how she works, watch this video of her rehearsing the band for "Portrait of a Child" (AJ's version of Screamin' Jay Hawkins' original "Portrait of a Man"): ruclips.net/video/SAkZDAXJA4E/видео.html.
put into words... She channels the original artist, and honors them with her own gift. It's as if they are speaking through her and she translates with every spark of energy she has.
Say IT She IS MUSIC. Period!
Hugely impressed by your research guys,.you’ll have a far better understanding of what you’re about to hear! I’m blown away by your observations…you’ve no idea how accurate you are..awesome! And yes everything you see is a choice by Angelina..this is her way of honouring an artist she adores.
Yes, I was very impressed by that act.
@@musicluvr70 Ditto here. And in that video you get to see SHE IS JUST A CHILD. But she’s paying attention, she’s on top of things and she knows what she wants and let’s them know. It’s quite amusing.
A very accurate comment Kevin
@@lydiabentley3413 Thanks for your kind message )) Its great to see two young lads doing things properly..putting the effort in..they’re wise enough to know that a little research always pays off..would they have known SJH’s image was on the candle? Would they have understood that she’d had a big hand in the arrangement which, for me, takes this from shockingly good to something deserving of respect as a piece of art. What 9 year old hears this song and thinks of a way of reinventing this into something that is already a jazz classic! Fast forward to Billie Jean!
@@musicluvr70 These guys are good..very good!
i call this beautiful soul the 5th ELEMENT the world was missing , thank you gents for your reaction , no MISS A.J. will catch you at the bottom of the rabbit hole , ENJOYyyyyyyyyyyyy
Welcome to this unreal cover and thanks for the wonderful and conscious reaction, it's important to understand the uniqueness of Angelina's work. This interpretation shows how Angelina, from a very young age, manages to elaborate in a splendid way her incredible passion and understanding for music, in particular for this type of mythical songs. She is surely the only 9-year-old girl who has the courage and the ability to take a Screaming' Jay song, imbued of this power, and rearrange it according to her sensibility and musical vision of her. I sincerely believe that this is perhaps the most beautiful version of this song made, in more than 50 years since it was written, yet there are dozens of versions, also sung by great performers. Angelina uniquely embodies the charm of naturalness and passion, she is an inexhaustible source of musical poetry.💛 🧡 ❤️
I lovely and accurate comment
@@lydiabentley3413 always you 😃 💛
Your reactions are outstanding! I have heard hundreds of Angelina reactors and you two are one of the best!
Thanks so much Edward!!
Angelina was 9 years old in this video. This was her own arrangement paying tribute to the original artist Screamin’ Jay Hawkins.
Many people are not aware that Sreamin’ Jay Hawkins was an opera singer and a boxing champ. He joined the army at age 13 using forged ID. He was a formidable opponent in the army and later in the airforce boxing circuits. He won several boxing golden glove awards mostly in his hometown of Cleveland. In 1949 he won Alaska’s middleweight title.
9 years old Angelina Jordan just delivered him a TKO. LOL
Thank you for your excellent reaction video of Angelina Jordan and keep up the good work.
HAHA... TKO. Thank you so much for this great knowledge and your kind words.
Hawkins would give his seal of approval without a doubt
I was shocked and delighted , as a musician and being around some great vocalist, no one of any age had the impact this girl has had , much less a 9 year old . Angelina is just a level of her own and has the bar so high over all, she is not soon if ever to be duplicated.
She does her own arrangements as others have mentioned and from a very young age the musicians she worked with respectfully just referred to her as The Boss. Just imagine being an adult musician with years and years of experience and then this young girl steps in front of you and does this. It must have been mind blowing to them as well. Very nice reaction by the way.
Terrific approach and commentary men! Angelina similarly respects and has "Angelina-ized" covers of Billie Holiday, Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Adele (as you know), Whitney Houston, Lana Del Ray, James Brown, Amy Winehouse, Freddie Mercury, Michael Jackson, and many more. No one is off limits, no song too iconic. Angelina is fearless and has the musical IQ to hear these artists' work, decide what she wants to do then can both vocally and emotionally deliver! It is quite a thing to behold as you have twice witnessed!
As for "arranging" that is a hard one to define and I have no direct knowledge. There are interviews available with two guitar players who have accompanied her in studio and they speak of Angelina reading the lyrics off her phone, telling the guitarist to follow her lead, and the result is recorded magic after only one or two takes. That's just one view at her talent. There is another rehearsal video where she hums to the trumpet player what she wants him to play. One presumes her skills in this arranging area at 9yo are not what they are today but I would be hesitant to bet much on that contention. Keep it up guys, I look forward to your in-depth and professional reactions to Angelina!
You are right, she's been studying and listening a LOT. And yes she is extremely devoted to her craft :) This was fun to revisit 😆😃😃
YES!!!! YOU HIT IT!!!!! SHE : STUDIES. EMBODIES. SHARES!!!!!! YES!!!!!!!!!
Never in my 30 years of living have I went out of my way to listen to Jazz or Soul music. Angelina sings the complete OPPOSITE of the type of music I like yet her voice is so beautiful that I can't help but listen.
To me, one of the most amazing things about Angelina is her interpretation. She sounds like she absolutely understands what she's singing about, even when she could obviously have no "history" about the subject of the songs.
Thank you for a god reation, Angelina is not copying she completing the songs😍
Her singing can either give you chills...render you to tears...hit you in your heart and soul...move you n mesmerise you...enjoy this Angelina journey
❤️

Angelina realy got the concept shock rock. She shocks everybody seing her sing this. Bye the way she shocks me every time she sing. Even now at 16 every new song or cover is like a christmas gift you don't no what's coming and allways surpriced.
Your reactions is in the very top. Thanks.
Can you imagine the band members coming to work and finding this 9 yr old there with this song it had to be an incredible day, to say the least.
She grew up listening to jazz and loved it. The word is she arranges everything.
Hello Guys ! Great reaction again :-) Yes, Angelina was 9 here, but BARELY 9..lol She was 9 years 2 months. Crazy stuff.
Can't wait for your continued discovery of the future G.O.A.T. of the music industry. I'm from Norway, like her, and have been following her closely since she won Norway's Got Talent at 8. (All performances except for the final, were done at age 7. She had JUST turned 8 at the final.) I'm not sure what would be the most correct way for you to go about, but I have compiled a few lists of her Norway's Got Talent entries, her originals and songs that were made specifically for her. Through these lists you will have a good mix of her oldest and also some of her newer stuff. Or, skip right to what she sounds like as of RIGHT NOW, and react to her cover of Adele's "Easy On Me" : ruclips.net/video/Mpw5Q76hWWE/видео.html She was 15 year old here, and is by no means a small child anymore. She's currently 16 years old as of January 10th and stands 6'1 tall (1m 85 cm) LOL Here are the lists :
Norway's Got Talent (In chronological order. You can see her front teeth grow from song to song...LOL )
1) Gloomy Sunday (Billie Holiday) : ruclips.net/video/Mpw5Q76hWWE/видео.html
2) I'm A Fool To Want You (acapella performance, and also originally by Billie Holiday) : ruclips.net/video/LXknLZDoRVQ/видео.html
3) Bang Bang (originally written by Sonny Bono in 1966 and performed by his wife Cher, but maybe made MOST popular by Nancy Sinatra) : ruclips.net/video/HCaDyiqs7Wg/видео.html
4) Summertime (by George Gershwin) This was her final performance in the competition : ruclips.net/video/443pBSpx5B4/видео.html
Her originals :
"What Is Life" (Her very first original) : ruclips.net/video/Bv0r77KN7RA/видео.html
"Shield": ruclips.net/video/lQtUbVKb0vs/видео.html (A tribute to her family for all their support)
"7th Heaven" : ruclips.net/video/bM8DzMRbiIc/видео.html (Her second original after being signed by Republic Records)
"Million Miles" (she wrote this one to her grandfather that had recently passed away) : ruclips.net/video/3KxvwuZ7oEM/видео.html (Her first original after Republic Records signing)
"Oslo" : ruclips.net/video/MfWVcDQix4Y/видео.html (A tribute to her home town )
Songs made specifically for Angelina :
"Above The Water" (Dance, electronic !!!!!! YES, she can do it ALL, no cap ) :ruclips.net/video/y6SilwnR2Zc/видео.html
"Song For A" : ruclips.net/video/Bo3mhxPM-uA/видео.html
Hope you find this of some help to get going. But no matter which song you choose, at any age, you just CAN'T go wrong. Rest assured :-)
Love and respect from Norway :-)
Hi, Poolhallshark, I have to make a correction on NGT age, the semi-final was LIVE on April 19. And there are strong indications that the judges’s cut were early Feb (8?).
Like you championing her originals, What is Life is one of my favourites, and I’m a Fool is just …, never mind she’s sung it later, it’s still top for me!
I believe she is a musical genius. She’s a Mozart. She’s respectful and honor the artists when she sings their songs. Don’t forget Bohemian Rhapsody. It makes me cry everytime.
She has a Mona Lisa smile and a cute little wave at the end of some of her songs!!
A wonderful reaction to Angelina. I've been around for quite a few years and enjoyed the vocals and musicality of a number of great artists. No one and I honestly mean no one has touched my heart and core like Angelina. There is something very special yet unassuming of this beautiful young woman. LIstening to and watching Angelina transports me to a place of love and warmth where the best part of me resides. She is without doubt my favorite all-time singer. Most talk about her incredible vocals with which I too concur. However, for me what makes Angelina so very special is the quality of her heart, soul and spirit and what is shared behind and beyond the words and vocals when she sings . You both are great. I really enjoyed your reaction and just subscribed to your channel. I look forward to enjoying many more reactions from you both. Thanks much.
Thanks for these kind words and for subscribing Steven. She is indeed special. We cannot wait for this amazing journey!
"out of respect, I'm going to take your song to the next level"
Possibly one of the most accurate descriptions of Angelina doing a cover song.
There 2 upsides to this...
1. there are 150+ more covers for you to sample and enjoy.
2. she is only 16 now! At this rate, there are hundreds more to come.
Love your reactions guys, especially exploring the original before her performance.
PS - Congrats on 5k!
Appreciate you Scotty!
The decision to get familiar with the original is ALWAYS a good idea when you're doing an Angelina cover. She has tremendous respect for the artists she covers, often singing in the same key. This is particularly evident in this masterpiece. The song doesn't even have a melody and ends with the ranting of a lunatic with a bone through his nose. This little girl makes it beautiful all the while paying great respect to Screamin' Jay. Add to that the fact that she arranges the music herself - or at the very least is intimately involved with it. - and you can get a glimpse of what we're dealing with here. She is almost enough to make me believe in miracles because she doesn't seem possible. Have fun with discovering her almost 8-year journey. It certainly is worth your while. You-ll be repeatedly shocked. 😎 Also, check out her Norway's Got Talent performances, her audition instantly went viral, and she has over half-a-billion views on RUclips alone.
ruclips.net/video/d3gSho9yf88/видео.html
Great reaction, by the way! 😎
Mike, she has lots more views than 1/2 Billion. According to her website it's over 1 Billion on YT & over 2.5 Billion on FB.
Appreciate you Mike! Thanks for tuning in and providing this information.
This original song is actually excellent (though of course shocking) and I think Angelina was inspired not by the crappy TV show (where Jim Hawkins was apparently drunk) but by the version that came out on the record. ruclips.net/video/82cdnAUvsw8/видео.html
Also, the wordless melody that Angelina sings in front of the orchestra is taken from Jim Hawkins - this melody was heard in another TV performance ruclips.net/video/orNpH6iyokI/видео.html
My favorite performance by her, I have literally seen it thousands of times... Angelina has been my favorite since Norways got talent..You guys gotta do her tribute to Whitney Houston...also "Born to die".
Yup, renders us all speechless this performance! You’re in for a treat down the AJ rabbit hole. Her family and in particular her grandmother, Mery Zamani, a celebrated poet and artist have influenced and nurtured her, Ms Zamani produced Angelina’s newest video for Suspicious Minds.
The Angel in Beast Mode .. Angelina is for sure from a other dimension and when she sing she open a Gate to the other World .. Angelina is the Holy Gral of Music .. She is the Truth ..
Angelina said in a Interview "Singing/Music is like breathing for her" .. and also she said "the music found me ..."
You guys are different from most reactors and that's a good thing. I like how you research and gain knowledge of what you're about to watch. And as for Angelina, well where does one start. Simply put, she is the greatest artist I've ever heard and no one else even comes close to having the impact on me that she does. Bohemian Rhapsody was my first encounter with her and it brought me to tears(and still does). The emotion she sings with is unmatched. The depth in her voice is like no other. I once read a comment that sums it up perfectly, "she is the one I've been waiting my whole life to hear". I would suggest Bohemian Rhapsody next because you will then have heard 3 completely different singing styles and voices from her.
the first time I heard this I was completely shocked and had to hear it again! I think I listen 20 more times that day at least.
You guys are great 👍 please continue with Angelina you will be pleased and I will to. 🙏👍
Thanks Mike!
Guys, loved your reaction, but especially your analysis! You have done more in-depth analysis than 20 other reactors combined....can't wait to watch more of your Angelina Jordan journey.
Thank you Jared and Jordan. Your conversation(s) and inquiry around and about Angelina Jordan and her Art are very interesting. You actually manage to get close to her singing magic, and talk about it, without intellectualising or schematizing it, but rather ruminating the depths from where it rises. If I were to describe Angelina with just two words they would be: Love and Compassion.
To me Angelina is all Love, her voice cuts through me like a knife and stirs emotion in me that I can hardly control. She may be just singing but she is really transmitting across time and space,
messages of Love and Connection that we sorely need. I look forward to following you both, thank you again.
Million Miles might make you cry.
Hi Angels J&J. This is a master class of how a reaction channel should be done. This deep delve into the song, the original artist and Angelina herself before the viewing makes this "reaction" the I best I have ever seen and I've seen hundreds. "She studies, embodies and shares"....one of the best comments ever. btw, I'm still using the term "duende" and thank you for that. You have redefined what a reaction channel is. You will learn so much more about this extremely rare individual as you venture through Angelina's videos. Each and every performance will give you a little surprise and many will leave you speechless. Here's the link for the interview she did at 9 years old discussing her book "Between Two Hearts" ruclips.net/video/-cCLDY0CSZ8/видео.html and her performance of "Unchained Melody" just before or right after the interview ruclips.net/video/wGjqXxQbFgA/видео.html Thank you Jared and Jordan for a very intellectual and thoughtful reaction! Cheers from Florida
Frank, we appreciate your kind words! Thanks so much for tuning in and sharing your insights with us. Much love!
Angelina has worked with this band on several occasions. They affectionately refer to her as "The Boss", because she knows exactly what she wants, and how she wants it done. She has 5 original songs that she wrote or co-wrote (3 that she wrote when 11 and 12) She has 2 songs that were written just for her to sing. "Song For A" and "Above The Water". The latter was written by a fellow Norwegian duo called TRXD, that does EDM, and Angelina shows there is no genre she can't do, and do well. ruclips.net/video/rpdHJJQAd9Y/видео.html
As for the first one, "Song For A" from Nico Cartosio's album "Melting".
The composers description:
"Song for A is the only song on the album. It is performed by Angelina Jordan, a very young and very talented singer. I needed a bright final for my instrumental album. After the series of cold hells and Melting itself I longed for a song of a liberated soul, a soul that was set free from suffering. So, I remembered a beautiful poem by Robert Burns^ and wrote this song especially for Angelina. And she gave a sensual performance." ruclips.net/video/Bo3mhxPM-uA/видео.html
Oh yes, Angelina plays 4 instruments, piano, guitar, flute and violin. I've heard she also speaks 4 languages, Norwegian, English, Farsi and some Japanese (she did a concert in Japan and sang a song in the language that garnered praise from all who heard it, video online) . Her maternal grandmother Mery Zamani, who is Iranian, was also a child prodigy in art and poetry and was married to a Japanese man.
This will be quite the journey, but one that will leave you admiring and respecting this young lady more with every song you hear. I just subscribed to follow this journey. Angelina's reactions are the only ones I watch.
5 languages. She also speaks Swedish.

Song far A....is AWESOME
Thank you for this much needed insight, and we appreciate you for tuning in and following the journey!
Well done guys, I've been following Angelina for over 3 years and have come across many reactors, however, I've really enjoyed the detail, research and respect you give. Keep up the good work and I look forward to the next one.
Thank you sir!
Thanks for your research and thoughts about the whole package love you guys and Angelina of course.
I love watching brains melt when people watch this for the first time. 😆 Great reaction guys, and thank you so much for including the original!
I usually don't watch child singers, but Angelina somehow "put a spell on me" with this one, I can't explain it, her way of singing is very unique and intriguing. Thank you very much for this extended reaction video, I thoroughly enjoyed it! Your videos are multifaceted, I commend you for doing some research and coming up with your own thoughts (e.g. "duende"), props to you!
Thanks so much!!
You guys have done the most interesting reaction to this Angelina classic. Great job. Angelina is definitely NOT appropriating other vocalists, she is doing what every other singer in the past has done. Sinatra, Ella, Billie, Vaughn, Streisand, Elvis, etc. have all covered other singers songs, besides introducing original material. From the internet I found just this one example: “The Beatles' "Yesterday" is believed to be the most covered song in history, with about 2,200 known versions as of 2017.” You guys are spot on, Angelina studies, ingests, and I will add, rearranges it to her standards, then shares it with us. Forget being just 9 years old, at any age that is remarkable.
Probably the longest intro and most in-depth reaction I’ve ever seen, to an Angelina performance. The vast majority of the reactors to this particular performance are left speechless. You have an amazing journey ahead of you, and I suggest you go back to her performances on Norway’s Got talent. She’s amazing there and the “angels”
get to experience how like a fine wine she improves with age every year.
Some of her best performances are with a solo guitar or piano, but when she had a full band or orchestra, it only gets more amazing.
Love your reaction...intelligent n authentic...n informative. Looking forward to your future reaction to Angelina Jordan's singing
