Welcome to my “Modern Life for the 70's Mind” RUclips Channel. On this channel, I not only take a look at the songs and history that made us who we are today, but also introduce you to today's modern music as well. Any songs that combine the two are always a winner. I've always loved music and have always tried to keep a balance between the classic music I fell in love with and today's MUCH DIFFERENT sounds. Here's we'll analyze both. We’ll even take some time and revisit some of the old parts of our past that have disappeared from today’s shelves and most people’s memories. Let’s relive those moments together! Thank you from the bottom of my heart for taking time out of your day to check in. I appreciate it more than I can say here.

The magical singer, I am 79 years old and she is my favorite singer, have to listen to her every day,!!!!
Angelina is the barefooted Queen of Soul with a Thousand Voices! She weaves musical tapestries in all colors of the rainbow with her beguiling voice! Her musical artistry is second to none and it not something that can be taught. Soul + Music in perfect harmony!
Angelina is a Vocal Goddess, and mesmerizing, and always amazing.
No 9 year old girl can sing like that...and that's exactly who Angelina Jordan is
Hi Matavesi. This was the first song that I had heard from her. It just blew me away. The good news is that every song I've heard since this one has been wonderful as well!
@@ModernLifeForThe70sMind Hello..I listen to her every day..just cant get enough..she still has the best to release
1. AJ began singing at 18 months. Her grandmother was a jazz/blues fan and played that genre of music for AJ. She fell in love with it very early on and has even arranged most if not all that she sings from age 8. What an incredible talent.
2. Now, in this year of 2022 she stands at 6 foot tall and still in her mid teens. She still performs publically barefoot.
3. The backstory of her encounter with the homeless girl she met while she traveled with her family through Iran at age 6 includes the weather damaged bare feet of the child she gave her own shoes to.
4. The reason she performs barefoot is to bring awareness to her public of the children worldwide who can't afford shoes of their own. She has raised millions of dollars for clothing including shoes for those unfortunate children. 💕
She wrote the all the parts for all the musicians. 👍
This is a complete work of art. Intuitive spontaneous not overly choreographed from the gut and the stars….Angelina is a genius and a goddess!!!!!!!!!!! ⭐️
Angelina is now 16, and her voice has changed a lot. It's become more mature, richer and she has even better control. I guess it's always nice for fans to go back and listen to stuff the singer did when they was younger, as is the case when listening to Angelina when she was 5 and 6 years old, but from the time she entered Norway's Got Talent when she was 7 most performances are so good that I listen to them because the versions are good enough to match grown up artists. She has done a lot of different songs and experimented with many styles, but Jazz and Blues are close to her heart. I don't know how you will go about getting to know her music, but if you want to jump ahead to about current time, I think you will love her original '7th Heaven'. Her version of 'Bohemian Rhapsody' at America's Got Talent The Champions is also a must. It is very different from Queen's version, but shows of her 13 year old voice beautifully.
I can't see her singing Bohemian Rhapsody!! I bet she does a great job though. That may be one that I'll have to react to.
Welcome, welcome to the world of Angelina Jordan Astar, in my 70 years the greatest male or female ever.
If you go down this rabbit hole, you will never come back and you will never be the same. You do not listen to her sing, you feel her sing in your heart. Take this from a 63 year old lifelong music listener. Be prepared to have your mind blown. Hang on to your heart. 130 + covers and original songs.
Hey Ronald. I haven't gotten over listening to Aurora yet, now Angelina. Ha
your take on her performance was spot on. she is the greatest singer alive at evoking the emotional intent of a song. she has so many great songs to react to. enjoy your new addiction, as we all have.
Welcome too the world of Angelina Jordan 🥰
Many of us who have been following Angelina's musical journey often refer new aficianados to Rusty Shackleford's website for the list of almost all of Angelina's performances going back to her debut at Norway's Got Talent in 2014. She was born in Norway in 2006. Her first taped performance was at the age of 6. She had to wait until the age of 7 to compete on Norway's Got Talent. But she won the competition having turned 8 before the finals. All total she has over 150 RUclips videos of which 5 are her own originals. Her choices in music span several genres, although jazzy blues is her dominant lane. Every one of these performances is a refresh of the original usually arranged by Angelina. She is gifted in vocal technique, emotive skill, musical intuition, and song arrangement. I have not yet heard even an ordinary performance by this phenomenon...and I have been listening to her for over three years now. In all my 79 years, I have never heard a voice as addictive as hers. She brings new life to dozens and dozens of classic songs from the 1930's on. So welcome to the "rabbit hole"...it is deep and wide. She call us, her fans, "angels", but it is she who is the angel. I only hope to live long enough to hear her break out into the world. She is crazy good...and thanks for your commentary. I did notice that you were drawn into the music and forgot about the spider...I think Angelina mesmerizes us when she performs. And I lose all sense of time and place...
Thanks for all that! She's been given an amazing talent and it looks like she's taking every advantage of it. Good for her! LOL on the spider. You're right, it took my mind of that. It was just a bit too chunky of a spider for my comfort level. :)
She will be the best of all time!!!
Her grandma introduced her to classic blues and soul, like Billie Holiday. That's where she started..
Simple. It's called genius.
Welcome to the edge of the rabbit hole. Angelina has over 100 videos from age 6 to 16.
Next? "Bohemian Rhapsody" Angelina Jordan on AGT the Champions.
AJ has 1000 voices, I never get tired of listening to her. Thanks for a proper response.
You're welcome!
She was 9 when she recorded this one, she’s now 16. You just listen to one of her 1000 voices, please continue to listen to her 999 others, she’s insane.
LOL. Looks like I have some work ahead of me.
She is the best Female singer in the world now, i love her voice and it is from a another universe 🌍🌎🌏🌈
Word of the day: Masterful
Every time she sings it is a work of art.
Angelina not only sings a song she lives the song. Enjoy the journey ahead. 👍😊
Thank you. Truly looking forward to it.
You're right, we compare every new version of the tune to Angelina's, including Angelina vs. Angelina, when she's sung it over the years. And, for me, it is still the best version
Great reaction Bob. Let me lay some mind-blowing facts on you. This arrangement was all Angelina. The notes she was writing at the beginning of the video were some final changes she wanted made that she handed to the band director. Angelina won Norway's got talent at the age of 8 with songs from Billie Holliday (Gloomy Sunday and I'm a Fool to Want You), Nancy Sinatra (Bang Bang), and Gershwin (Summertime). She has performed over 140 covers from 80+ different artists between the age of 6 and 16 (her current age). She has mastered almost all possible genres of music from Jazz, to Blues, to Disco, to EDM, to Country, to Pop, Gospel, and Classical. She began at the age of 3 immersing herself in and studying old-school classic jazz masters. She has performed in venues from small outdoor jazz concerts, to South Korea (40,000 attendance), London, Japan, the US, all over Europe, Singapore and others. She has performed with/for Nora Jones, Avicii, Alan Walker, Quincy Jones, European royalty, heads of state, and Nobel prize winners. She has written and performed 5 original songs, and is currently under contract with Republic Records as their #1 priority artist. In short, Angelina is the real deal and is one of the most authentic, hardest working, naturally talented, and emotive artists you will ever see. She has earned the nicknames of "The Queen of Jazz", "The Barefoot Princess", and "The Girl of 1,000 Voices". I wish you well as you start your journey down the rabbit hole. You have a long and entertaining journey ahead of you.
Thanks for all of that!!!
She is a prodigy, talent that cannot be learned. It is coming from her soul she is a prodigy, talent that cannot be learned. It is coming from her soul. there’s a old, blues, jazz and so many genres with in this little girl that she will never be duplicated or replicated. I’m 57 years old. I’m a singer and I’m a lover of music and I have never seen this much maturity, vocally, and a child. And that’s not to discredit any young artists, but most of them were either brought up in musical families, or they were trained to sing the way that they sang, this is just pure richness and again this child is definitely a prodigy. That’s my opinion 🫶🫠🔥🔥🥰🌹❗
She sings the words of every song as if the words were her own and accompanying emotions belong to her - the greatest singer I have ever heard -- she is a life changing experience
She is currently 16 years old, living in Los Angeles, and is signed to a major record company called Republic Records. She is a jazz prodigy from Norway that was exposed to jazz very early due to her grandmother and her early influences are Billie Holiday, Dinah Washington, Frank Sinatra, Etta James, and more recent artists such as Amy Winehouse and Adele. Her first exposure to a mass audience came when she competed and won Norways Got Talent at the age of 7 years old. Then, when she was 13 years old, she was ask to compete in the U.S. on America's Got Talent: The Champions in 2020. She wowed the judges and the audience with her rendition and arrangement of Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen. Queen was so impressed they tweeted, "Wow! What a rendition!"
She did not win the show, but her exposure here in America garnered her a lot of attention and grew her fan base and popularity. She has many videos of covers and some of her own originals on RUclips. If you actually do a search for "Angelina Jordan reaction" you'll see how popular and how many people are listening to her. Her voice has changed due to her just getting older, but, wow, she sounds so good! She has done different styles of music which has surprised her fans because she does them so well. Her fans, called Angels, have given her the name Barefoot Princess of Jazz and the Girl with a Thousand Voices. When she covers a song, many feel she does it as well and many times better than the original artist.
I have a feeling her Angels are going to flood you comments pretty soon with information about her and her music. There is actually a sweet reason why she performs barefoot all the time and that has only endeared her even more to her fans. Someone will let you know about it soon. If you are curious how she sounds now, you might want to check out her cover of Adele's Easy on Me or even more recent release of My Funny Valentine. Anyways, this rabbit hole you just jumped in to is very deep, so enjoy the journey! Best wishes and God Bless!
That was all very interesting. Thanks for sharing! Now you got me wondering why she sings barefoot. You're so cold to leave me hanging like that! LOL
@@ModernLifeForThe70sMind Oh, okay, I guess I'll tell you! LOL When Angelina was 6 years old, she met a homeless girl around her age in Iran during a trip with her family. (Her grandmother is famous Iranian artist Mery Zamani.) The girl did not have any shoes, and Angelina says her feet were scarred. After talking with the girl for a while, Angelina gave the girl her own shoes. Angelina asked her what she wanted to be when she grew up and the homeless girl said she wanted to be a doctor. the girl then asked what Angelina wanted to be, and Angelina said she wanted to be a superstar and sing for the world. The little girl said she would pray for Angelina for her dreams to come true. From that point on, Angelina vowed never to appear on stage again wearing shoes until all the world’s children had them.” She keeps that promise to this day, as she says that little girl “is always in my heart.” Another reason why we Angels love her so much!
@@ModernLifeForThe70sMind she wrote a book about.. Between two hearts 💖💞 and released it when she was 9y as the youngest publisher of Norway, available as an English ebook on her own website, phantastic thoughts
That book, I have it next to my bed. I'm Dutch, so can't read the Norwegian language. While translating with Google, (took me a while) several times my eyes got wet. Incredible beautiful written by Angelina 👌
She didn't win America's Got Talent: The Champions in 2020 because she would not sign away her rights with Simon.
Hello and thank you for responding to Angelina. You're right, she conducted the band. She is also called "The Boss" on set. And she is the boss!!
Her voice has actually changed over the last few years. It's certainly not surprising at that age. It's a miracle that the voice has only gotten better. 😄😄
Here are some things that can be useful as background knowledge.
Angelina was born on January 10, 2006 in Oslo, Norway (16 years old today). She started singing at the age of one year and a half and has been arranging her cover songs since she was 6 or 7 years old. She started with jazz!! She won “Norway Got Talent” at the age of 7!! There are more than 150 cover songs of all genres and singers. Now she also has her own songs.
There are cover from Queen, Adele, Amy Winehouse, Whitney Houston, Lana Del Rey, ELVIS, Michael Jackson, Billie Holyday, Elton John, Etta James, Beatles, Frank Sinatra, Nancy Sinatra,....
She is called "The Barefoot Princess with 1000 Voices". She is able to adapt her voice to her arrangements of the songs.
- Why Angelina always sings barefoot: At the age of 6, Angelina traveled to the Middle East with her grandmother, who is from Iran and is an artist herself. Angelina noticed a girl her age making some money by asking passers-by to stand on her bathroom scale to be weighed. In order not to soil the scales, Angelina took off her shoes. She chatted with the girl who wasn't wearing shoes and learned that she is an orphan. The girl admired Angelina's beautiful shoes. Angelina then gave the girl her shoes. The girl thanked her and said she would pray for Angelina every day. In return, Angelina promised her that she would always sing barefoot at public performances until all the children had shoes. Until today Angelina has kept her promise. In 2014, she sang barefoot outdoors at the Nobel Peace Prize Concert honoring Malala in December. She also sung barefoot at a dinner with ex-President Obama. At the age of 9, Angelina wrote a book about this story, becoming the youngest published author in Norwegian history. She donated proceeds from sales of the book to help children in need.

Have a nice day and
Greetings from Germany
Thanks for all of that. A number of people have suggested How Great Thou Art. I may have to react to that one for sure.
A couple of corrections may be necessary. She entered for Norway's Got Talent at the age of 7 - although this is disputed - and was 8 years old for all but the first performance. Although it wasn't released until Sep 29, 2019, her performance of Autumn Leaves was filmed in a London Park, possibly on the same visit to London when she appeared on Quincy Jones' 80th Birthday Concert. If this is correct, she was12 years of age.
@@alberttenfoot Hello Albert, thank you for the information. Yes, I knew she won when she was 8 years old. But the competition started a few days before her 8th birthday. And in many comments, her age is therefore given as 7 years. And Angelina herself said at AGT that she was 7 years old when she won NGT. She seems to count as well. However, I have adjusted my documents and will be more precise in the future.
I actually derived the age of Angelina on "Autumn Leaves" from the date of publication. It was already the end of September 2019 and that suits the time of year. Can the video really have been a year old when it was released?
Judging Angelina's looks (12 years "What is life" and 13 years "How great thou art"), I have to agree with you. She seems to have been more 12 than 13 years old.
Welcome to this unreal cover of Angelina's incredible world and thanks for this really great reaction, it's very cool when we discover a competent reactor who appreciates the work she does. This interpretation is important to understand the uniqueness of Angelina's work because shows how she, 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 little girl who has the courage and the ability to take a Screaming' Jay song, so imbued of he power, and rearrange it according to her sensibility and musical vision. I sincerely believe that this is 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.💛 🧡 ❤️
Since winning Norway’s Got Talent, at 8, she has always had the best musicians to back her up, she performed with professional musicians and professional background singers within weeks of winning performing “What a Difference a Day Makes” at a yearly boarder performance in Norway. Now that she’s 16 and signed with Republic Records, she still enjoys the best, now associated with Rob Christie, a Grammy winning producer and studio director for Republic Records.
She embodies the performance of the song, not just the words she sings, and she is a true prodigy, she also rearranges and rewrites the songs to suit her artistry and age appropriateness, and she directs the musicians to accompany her as she sees fit. She’s more than you could have imagined.
Welcome to the wonderful world of Angelina 💕💕
Welcome to the club ! She only performs with professional musicians.
She won Norway got talent age 7, performed for Quincy Jones, has been accompanied by quartets, quintets, philharmonic orchestras, Republic Recods signed her and she just became 16 yold. Who has achieved so much ?
You will be amazed if you continue reacting to her.
Angrlina is a prodigy and she will be one of thre greatest singers of our time ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐💖
The first and most important thing you need to know before you dig deeper into what Angelina is all about: she is a bona fide genius...... About performing barefoot: Most of the commenters, below, who give an explanation about why she does so, are wrong. They think she does it to make a statement.The only one who got it right is Ole Olson. In her own words, Angelina explains in an interview: As fans have come to know, Jordan likes to perform barefoot, in honor of a young girl she met when was 6 who didn’t have any shoes. Ever since the young singer gave that girl her shoes, she’s performed without wearing her own..... “I want to remind myself that there are less fortunate people around the world who need help,” she says. “It is a great reminder for me.”
Sounds like she's a good soul.
This one is my favorite version of this song
Those little gizmos are symbols, each very meaningful representation off the gods we idolize on earth, very interesting… they cannot resist showing up everywhere.
all glory to our Father
May our Lord God have mercy on humanity
I have to tell you every time i listen to this i feel stripped of all my emotions and left speechless and amazed
She’s the “Boss”. Before Norway’s Got Talent, you should hear her at the age of 6. Her first recording, in a studio, was “I, who have nothing,”. A real prodigy.
This young girl is on another level, lucky for you she has so much material to listen to.
you said I never heard of Angelina Jordan as you you fell into the rabbit hole. Angelina may end up being one of the greatest vocalists of all time
Congrats... you just discovered the most astonishing voice of the century!
This rendition by our 9 year old Angel is always a great "set up" for anyone who has never witnessed this spectacular vocal masterpiece by the music/genius/prodigy Angelina Jordan Astar. Absolutely loved your reaction and comments to who shall be one of the greatest vocal artists to come along in decades. I am in my late 60's, have listened to a lot of music in those years and after discovering this young lady a few years ago it has become a life changing experience to hear pure raw vocal talent on display here. Angelina has a massive collection of songs on her channel, and she has revived so many classic songs from decades ago into new and amazing renditions that will blow your mind. She has her roots in Blues/Jazz thanks to her Grandma who exposed her to the greats of the past when she was very young. For the full journey of this young lady I would suggest Rusty Shackleford's channel with a Chronological list beginning around her 7-8 year old age when she won Norway Got Talent show singing Billy Holiday.. ruclips.net/user/MrRustysPlacevideos
Thanks, I like that channel a lot! It helps me out.
she wrote all the words and music for this song
This was Angelina's own arrangement paying tribute to the original artist Screamin’ Jay Hawkins.
Many people are not aware that Screamin’ 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. Do you agree?
Thank you for your excellent reaction video of Angelina Jordan and keep up the good work.
Wow, I never knew that about him. All I knew was that his video was "quite unique". LOL Thanks for sharing that.
Her Phrasing. is so so good , and for her age , priceless
9 años!! Comenzó a los 6 !! Y hoy con 16 es una locura!!! Crazy!!! Ya lo verás!!!! 🧉🧉🧉🤗🤗🤗
"Shouldn't 9 year old's be playing with toys?" Her toys since 1 1/2 yo have been her music, and especially JAZZ!!!! Great reaction!
ferocious, and to think her music &voice is usually similar to a feather or a butterfly wing.....

Radiohead - Creep.
Typical underachiever. ;)
@@ModernLifeForThe70sMind 😂
and Paul McCartney, George Harrison . . .
To me the difference between Angelina Jordan and most singers is that she feels the music and passes that on down to her audience. And I am a 74 yr old and i didnt know about your dictaphone tape because that would have been HIGH TECH where i lived . We did not even have paved roads where I lived in Michigan. They were dirt and gravel and once a summer they would oil them. Great place to grow up though.
The good part is you found Angelina so soon after you started creating reactions. The unfortunate part of finding her so late (as did I - but I just binge instead of needing to wait until I could record another reaction) is that you could react to only Angelina and not run out of content for a very, very long time. So, the dilemma is 1) become a channel dedicated to only Angelina reactions or 2) wait for an eternity to hear all her magnificent art. (I see that you already have many more reaction, so you found the rabbit hole.)
Angelina and Aurora are both great empaths, channeling any emotions of every song they write or covers. It's their super power =)
You said that you hope her voice would not change. The magnificent part is that she never sounds the same twice and always sounds better than the last - yet, the change mystically continues circular; because when I go back to hear again something older, it too sounds better than the new piece that I just swore is the best I ever heard.
You are in for a long journey my friend. I discovered this young lady about 6 years ago, and now I have to listen to her every day or I feel like something is missing. She has about 160 videos on You Tube, and they should all leave you feeling the same way. I'm 67 and my music tastes, I feel, are varied, but now she is all I listen to. Her latest release, at 16, is "My Funny Valentine", and I probably listened to it half a dozen times in my life. Since she released her version on Feb. 15th, I think I may have listened to it 50 times, and each time it coaxes tears from my eyes. If you continue this journey, her Angels (her name for her fans) will be here and give you all types of info about her and all their favorite recommendations. My favorite son that she sings? The last one I heard is alway my favorite. Subscribing to see more reactions to her.
There is no doubt that I'll be doing more reactions on her. The problem with doing this is that once I hear how good people are (like her), I can't listen to more because I don't want to spoil a first reaction. I need to come up with a new gig. LOL
@@ModernLifeForThe70sMind, LOL... Maybe you need to start another channel and do a reaction or two every day. That would get you through a couple of months, or longer, depending on how many new videos she posts.
The interesting thing with Angelina is that every song she sings, she takes ownership. Untouchable is a good way to put it.
100% correct. I have also fallen in the rabbit hole. And I'm happier for it. She is part of my daily nourishment. There is nobody like her.
100%agree Angelina is also my Pain Medication. 24/7 non Stop in my Ears.
Currently she is 16 years old and just dropped
My Funny Valentine on the 14th
Oh and she arranges her own music too
welcome to the Queen of Music the only one you'll need in life...seriously
Jazz, Whitney, Etta, you name it & she kills it....Dive in & enjoy
Loved your reaction. I'm 62 this month and this is my favorite vocal performance ever. I think you'd also like her cover of Bohemian Rhapsody on America's Got Talent: The Champions in 2020. Like this song, it's her own arrangement. She won Norway's Got Talent at age 8, btw. I'll def subscribe for more Angelina.
Hello. Yes, a number of people have suggested Bohemian Rhapsody. I'll definitely think about adding that one. Thanks so much.
Wow congratulations you just started your going to love this girl she sings with different voice every time shes our barefoot princess
She does everything...Jazz to EDM
Well, it sure seems she has the talent to do all of that! ;)
Bob, Angelina just put a "Spell" on you, welcome to her "Rabbit Hole" musical journey! Angelina (9 yrs old) sent a note to the Director before the recording started with changes to the music. She arranges all her songs, the Band nicknames her "The Boss"! Fasten your seatbelt Bob for more unbelievable music from Angelina Jordan.
Welcome to the world of Angelina Jordan - AKA , The Barefoot princess , The Queen of Jazz and the Angel with 1,000 voices. This is HER ARRANGEMENT of the 1956 original by Screaming Jay Hawkins !! The notes that you saw the music director reading were her instructions on how she wanted the band to play her arrangement ! The Band affectionately nicknamed her " The Boss " . She started singing at the tender age of 1 1/2 years of age and was introduced to Jazz at the age of 3 by her Grandma Mery. She is Norwegian and English is her third language ! She speaks Norwegian - Swedish - English - Japanese and Farsi. She also plays Piano - Guitar - Flute and the Violin ! She Won Norway's Got Talent at age 8 with 46% of the total vote ! The other 9 finalists split the remaining 54% between them. She has a catalogue of over 160 covers and 5 originals to date. She has covered many diverse artists and genres. She is currently 16 years of age ( DOB is 1/10/2006 ) . She was 9 years old at the time of this performance . She is a once in a generation talent and well worth checking out . You can find her on her own You Tube channel , Tik Tok and Instagram.
Unfortunately, I can't really watch any of her videos until I'm ready to react to them. Not much of a reaction if I've already seen it. Ha.
Listen to more of her, you will be so impressed
Angelina " The living young legend!
No kidding! That was just amazing to watch!
"Untouchable!"
This prodigy, now 16, can do with a mic what Neil Peart (RIP) and Wayne Gretzky did with their respective sticks.
LOL. I've never heard the comparison of Neil Peart and Wayne Gretzky. That is too funny!!! Perfect.
@@ModernLifeForThe70sMind And as you go along your Angelina journey, you'll understand that (as a proud Canadian) I'm not exaggerating. Keep up the great reactions.
I used the Gretzky analogy as well… she is the GOAT…in cycling it is Eddie Merckx, I believe the Beatles as a music group, Beethoven and Mozart for classical music… she is in the Pantheon
Love your reaction! She’s impossibly good! You’ll fall in love with her check out her other songs!
Yup our barefoot princes. :) One of a kind and we love her. I would recommend starting with her First Professional studio performance when she was 6 she sings "I Who Have Nothing" and like this one she knocks it out of the park. Then go to Norway's got talent. My Daughter turned me on to her what,, 6-7 years ago now, and we got to see her live one time. What a loving young lady. So invested in her Fans and so sweet. Enjoy
Welcome to the 🌍 of Angelina, the princess of jazz music 🎷 who does not wear shoes 🦶🦶 during her performance and for a very good reason ... 🗣🎙👑
I love going back to watch these old reactions to Angelina. Yes, I watched it with you the first time you saw it.
Take care and please do more AJ.
Enjoyed your thoughts. As one reactor said after listening to 4 or 5 of her covers, "It's just not fair to all the other singers out there."
LOL. True!
That's right.
The only negative about Angelina is, that she totaly destroyed my whole music collection. I can better sell it, because since I know her(2 years now) I can only listen to Angelina, Angelina, Angelina.
My favorite vid of her to watch reactions of! She has said in interviews "This song is about love, desperate love. The melody is very nice, and when I scream, it is a plea for everyone to love each other". The best version I have ever heard. This was all her, she did the arrangement and the changes to the lyrics. The band refer to her as "The Boss". Not only is she a phenomenal vocalist, she is an amazing human being as well. I'm sure you will be flooded with comments and other fans have compiled very good biographies of her. Her voice is only getting better!
Now you can say..."you were touched by an Angel"
That's a YES.
Great reaction to a vocal tour-de-force! You've done it now. Your world just changed. If Aurora is a hurricane, Angelina is a tidal wave! You have fallen into the vortex of Angelina Jordan who arguably brings the most confident, versatile, seemingly effortless, and fearless vocal artistry found today (whether measured across artists, genres, or decades). You may think this an exaggeration but listen to a few more of her many performances (140+ covers plus original songs - all on YT) and you will see! She has been performing at a high level all over the world since age 8 when she won Norway's Got Talent singing Billie Holiday, Nancy Sinatra, and Gershwin. It is the rare singer that can, as Angelina has done, go from Queen to "Screamin" Jay Hawkins to Adele to Elvis to Whitney Houston to Michael Jackson to Etta James to James Brown to Amy Winehouse (and many others in between) and do them all justice! Angelina takes over songs just like here!
If you want to hear music, listen to anyone. If you want to feel music, listen to Angelina. She will stagger you with her ability to find and bring forth the 'essence', the emotional message of nearly any song. You have far to go with Angelina. She is equally comfortable and equally able to impact us whether singing a cappella, accompanied only by a piano or guitar, in front of professional studio musicians or a 40 piece military band. With her immense vocal toolkit, arranging ability (yeah, that too, since about 8yo or so) and the work ethic to make what she does only 'seem' effortless, she will hopefully be touching hearts for a long time to come.
Why God has performed the miracle of touching the world with one of such talent, musical IQ, commitment, and generosity as Angelina we can wonder but we must all marvel. Welcome aboard the AJ train! Please react to more of her impressive library.
It is truly a conundrum when we try to rationalize how it is possible that this tiny sweet-faced 9yo Norwegian girl can step up to a microphone, flip some switch within her, become this "beast-mode" version of herself (most probably named "AJ don't play"), deliver an extraordinary and musically and socially sophisticated performance, then just-like-that return to the pensive young lady once again...
Ironic you would say a piece of her lyrics sounded almost desperate, when asked if she understood what the song was about, she answered it’s about a desperate love for someone. ✌🏼❤️
Like yourself I live in Florida and have been listening to Angelina for almost 5 years now. She is a true child prodigy there's a video ( when you believe featuring her rise to fame ) in it the last clip shows her in her crib with a microphone, family must have known even at that young age ( 1 or 2 ) she was born to sing. She embodies every song she sings should it be a cover or one of her originals. She is the product of an impeccable upbringing, after she won Norway got talent age 8 there were record labels out there wanting to sign her however her parents wanted her to wait and have a normal as possible childhood ( they Evan turned down Disney ) some of her accomplishments pre-teen youngest published author in Norway,( 9 ) sang Noble peace prize (8) was featured in a movie, sang in a ad for a car company,been on numerous TV shows, has raised millions of dollars for children's charities all over the world, she has sung for Royalty as well as world leaders prime minister of Norway and Japan, and Obama. This All done pre-teen. She is now sixteen and has signed with republic records however I don't see them making a push until she finishes her education again I think this is her parents and her upbringing. She is fluent in three languages, plays four instruments,designs some of her outfits, paints (her grandma is a well known artest from Iran ) other than the above she's just a normal 16 Year old me lol
Thanks for reaction a great. AJ is a gift to the world.
She not only paid tribute to the original artist, she reinterpreted it in such a fantastic way at age 8! and at 16 her vocal abilities and harmonics she creates have never been seen before! You'll see with her song "Million Miles" No one can cover it the same!
Bohemian Rhapsody next. For the 70's mind. 😉👍
Great reaction. Angelina is confident with every style you can imagine, but she's more into jazz.
Believe it or not. You ain’t seen nothing yet.
She covers lots on genres and each one she is masterful in.
I believe that!
Angelina Jordan Astar, this little norwegian girl is now 16 y old and the best singer on this planet! 🤩
She's now 16 and her voice HAS changed - for the better! She has covered a whole range of songs - over 160 covers on her channel - and all amazing. There are plenty of greats, from Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald, Frank Sinatra, to Amy Winehouse, Adele and Rihanna and all points between. She is famous for bringing classic songs back to life and putting real feeling into the lyrics. Check out anything. The 'angels' (her devoted fans) will all be watching your channel.
Why Angelina always performs barefoot♥👣
At age 6, while traveling in the Middle East with her mother and grandmother, Angelina noticed a girl around her age standing on the side of the road asking people to step on her bathroom scale to be weighed in hopes of getting some money. Angelina took off her shoes so as to not get the scale dirty and stepped on the scale many times to make the girl feel better. Angelina befriends the girl who was not wearing shoes and has scars on her feet, and learns she is an orphan. The orphan girl tells Angelina how beautiful she thinks her shoes are. Angelina says her shoes don’t fit her well and she wants to give her shoes to the orphan girl who thanks Angelina for giving her the shoes. Angelina asked the girl what she wanted to be when she grew up and the girl replied, “I want to become a doctor, but that will never happen since I have no parents and I have siblings so I have to do whatever is necessary for us to survive.” Angelina told the girl to never give up on her dreams. The poor girl asked Angelina what she wanted to be when she grew up and Angelina replied that she wanted to sing for the whole world. The poor girl said she would pray every day so Angelina’s dream would come true. Angelina still says she thinks of that homeless girl every day and has always performed barefoot to remind her of all the children who are less fortunate. At age 9, she became the youngest published author in Norway’s history by writing a book about this encounter in the Middle East. 'Between Two Hearts'
Great review, Angelina loves Billy Holiday, as I'm sure you do too, so you should listen to her performances on Norway's Got Talent when she was 7-8yo. After that do some of her new performances like her cover of Adel's "Easy On Me", to get a feel for how she has developed.
Another amazing talent from Norway. You’ll grow to love her ability to draw you in while she tells you a story.👍🏼🎼💗
I'm pretty sure that you're completely right about that! Ha
Please join us angels in the Angelina rabbit hole
Make room...
Very good reaction and a new subscriber.
The Greatest Performance Ever by The Greatest of all Time.
9 years old and doing her own arrangements.
The band nicknamed her The Boss.
16 on 1/10/22 and around 160 covers and originals.
She makes every cover she does better than the original.
Her voice has changed over time. It has gotten better.
I can't tell you how much I'm looking forward to reacting to more of her songs. Looks like I have my work cut out for me. HA.
@@ModernLifeForThe70sMind I would suggest next do all 4 songs, in order with CC, on Norway's Got Talent 2014 at 7 and 8 years old. Some reactors do all 4 in 1 reaction and you can see her progress. About 10 min,
She also did 4 songs at 6 years old with Rolling in the Deep and I Who have Nothing being the must see.
Gary, I thoroughly enjoyed your 1st Visit to the Magical World of Angelina Jordan. Loved that you even had to get reseated! First timers just make me SMILE.. and LAUGH with DELIGHT ! JAZZ is her wheelhouse, won Norway's Got Talent at 7yrs old, She did 4 songs, 2 Billie Holiday, and she win with Gershwin's "Summertime"... She'll make you smile, she'll boggle your mind, she'll leave you stunned and delighted... Welcome to our world.. buckle up and enjoy the wonder and beautiful prodigy that is Angelina... BTW, when you get to her current songs (age: 16, My Funny Valentine) you might as well listen in bare feet... Because she's going to blow your socks off anyway 😂 I love AJ.
Hi Arlene. You'll definitely see me posting more videos from her. ....and I'm sure she will!
Excellent reaction, welcome down the rabbit hole with the greatest Jazz singer in 2 lifetime's, love to watch someone with musical intelligence find Angelina, I'm on board!
Wow what a wonderful, spot on reaction. I especially loved your observation of Angelina imbuing her “...I love you...” with a sense of desperation.
When asked at age 10 what she thought about the song, Angelina said:
“It means love, desperate love! It’s very special, it’s almost voodoo! The original is very nice, and when I scream it is a desperate cry that everyone should love each other!”
You have just been introduced to the most beautiful voice of the twenty first century! I look forward to your future reactions of Angelina Jordan. ❤️👣
Thanks Peter! Appreciate your feedback. You'll definitely hear more from me on her.
i am 60 and sub your channel only because of Angelina,,,,,i listen to her for the past 8 years,,,,,,,180 different covers and many originals later i am one of millions now who can say without any doubt,,,,,,,,,she is the ONE,,,,,,,and we do not need to compare her to anybody,,,,,,,,because all of them are humans,,,,,,she is a soul healer,,,,she is music itself,,,,her voice is a magical tool ,,,,,,to makes us better,,,,,,,and she does it,,,,,,,but you need to open your heart and your mind,,,,,,to know and to experience once in a life time real wonder,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
It sounds like you're a fan. ;)
Welcome to the Bare Foot Princess's rabbit hole. She has always been Astar but is about to hit the music industry big time. Plenty of choice with the better part of 200 vids out there already.
She has a lot more incredible music out there, but this is her most shocking performance.
Angelina (literally little angel) puts on her dark wings here and goes into beast mode! She can adapt to whatever a performance requires and convey the appropriate emotions as good as the past or current masters! And she is indeed arranging and directing her performances beginning age 7 or earlier! She's 9 here and 16 now. So many songs, so many genres but she's a jazz goddess. Great review. Great insight.
Thank you.
I enjoyed every second of this very few people get Angelina Jordan, the way you do. Thank you sir….
I keep waiting for Angelina to run out of air at the ending to this song I find myself holding my breath I've listened to all of Angelina's RUclips videos and I still can't believe she exists I put her at a one-in-a-billion possibility a truly modern-day Mozart
You have just discovered a true gem! It’s so much fun to watch a first timer to this performance. Angelina Jordan is a musical prodigy. I hope you continue down the Angelina rabbit hole. It will be a fantastic journey. You will not regret it. Thanks!
Her cover of "A million years ago" is great as well. Just her & Ivan (guitar) and a microphone.
Thank you for your right-on reaction. I read through all the comments and found a few things that were not said, since you are now well into Angie's history. First, English is Angie's third language, after Norwegian and Farsi. Also, she has studied German in school. She is probably conversant in Japanese, as well, since her mom and uncle grew up in Japan and frequently speak together in Japanese! Her late grandfather was Japanese. On tour in Asia, Angelina sang a song in Japanese and it is said that her pronunciation was perfect. Why Farsi? Her grandmother, Meri, is a fairly well known poet and painter from Iran and Angelina lived with her there when quite young. Angelina plays the guitar, piano and, I am told, the violin and flute (it's hard to sing when playing the last two...) She is a musical genius.
The more comments I read, the more I'm amazed by this talented artist.
She has about 160 covers and about 7 originals. Check out her recent original "7th Heaven" (the live studio version is the best.) She sings just about every popular style: R&B, blues, pop, EDM, classical, country, disco, swing, and so on.
I really hate talented people! LOL I'll definitely be checking out/reacting to more. Thanks.
She has 5 originals🙂
In addition she has to songs that were specifically made for her, being "Song For A" , written by Nick Cartosio : m.ruclips.net/video/Bo3mhxPM-uA/видео.html
and the EDM "Above The Water", written by the Norwegian duo TRXD : m.ruclips.net/video/y6SilwnR2Zc/видео.html
Greetings from Norway👍🇸🇯
Recently she did a cover of
Duffys' Mercy for a movie.
And EASY ON Me. Adeles most recent song.
Thank you for your enthusiastic reaction to Angelina. Your response was not surprising!
Norwegian born Angelina began singing at the age of one and a half, and by age three was listening to jazz and classics legends on repeat. She won Norway's Got Talent at the age of only 8, singing old time classics from Billie Holliday and George Gershwin, and became the youngest ever winner of an international Got Talent Show! She also went viral on America's Got Talent the champions in 2020 with her unique version of Bohemian Rhapsody. She is a true prodigy.
She is now 16, and has recorded over 160 songs, including mostly covers and several originals. A major attraction to Angelina's music is the emotion and attitude she conveys, although she has not experienced the life events! She is known as the barefoot princess of 1,000 voices as she can adjust her tone, style, and register for any song or genre. She was signed by Republic Records over a year ago. Here is link from ages 6 to 15 to her chronological performances, including five originals.

Why does Angelina sing barefoot?
When she was 6 years old, she was in the Middle East with her mom and grandmother and they came across a young orphan girl with no shoes and scarred feet. Angelina gave the girl her own shoes and promised she would never again wear shoes while performing until all children of the world had shoes! At age 9 she wrote a book about this experience, Between two Hearts, becoming the youngest ever published author in Norway. She also has helped raise millions for children's charities. She is a special individual, and one you cannot follow without developing an emotional bond.
Angelina penetrates hearts because she is humble and has compassion for humanity. Her stated goal from childhood was to sing for the world and spread love and peace. I trust this will cause you to embrace her as millions of others have, and that you will continue down the rabbit hole from which you would not want to escape. Peace.
Thanks for sharing that story. Very inspirational.
Don’t worry about seeing spiders. I heard a spider scientist say once that spiders are everywhere; rarely are we ever more than 3 feet from a spider. So, now you can relax, because you have been close to spiders your while life, and nothing bad happened from them.
