    This was done in 1 or 2 takes as were all the Angelina/Ivan Mendez sessions. You may notice she looks over to her left. She's looking at her cell phone where she uploaded the lyrics because she hadn't memorized them. For more info on how this series came about, check out "The Angelina Jordan Story- Ivan Mendez Interview (LA guitarist)"

    Maunalee, I loved seeing your expression that mirrors mine. Angelina Jordan is so special, so talented, so able to control my heart. Loved seeing the surprise on your face, as was mine for the years that I have followed her. Thanks for reviewing her work. She is always so exceptional. She does not even realize the impact that she has on us. She is truly special. Thank you Maunalee. I love your face too.

    I'm a big fan of Adele; she is a great singer and song writer. This was a big hit for her, and one of my favorites. Then I heard Angelina's cover, and was like WTF. If you close your eyes from start to finish, the emotional impact is simply unreal. I cry with my eyes closed. Angelina can drag you into her emotions while she's singing. While I love pretty much everything she sings, and I think her voice is over the moon, it's that emotional draw that separates her from other great singers. And she does it time and time again. She is the total package. Thanks ML, for another great reaction to the fabulous Angelina. 😊💕

    I never knew this Adele song existed either till I saw Angelina’s cover then I saw Adele’s version and as good as Adele is Angelina in my opinion blows her away. So much more emotion which is crazy since she’s so young with not enough life experience to be able to sing this song as if she’s lived it. It’s crazy. Glad you’re feeling a little better. A loss of a good friend (human or canine) is hard, very hard. Just remember that you gave your dog years of love and comfort and he or she was very lucky to have you as it’s friend. 🙏🙏🙏

    This is one of the most requested Angelina videos for good reason. Just a 12 year old in her room.... out-singing one of the highest rated voices of current times. Angelina's cover of this song is just one more example of how she can convey the original intent of a song even better than the original artist. She can really make you feel the words.
    BTW: The guitar man is Ivan Mendez. Angelina does some really great work with him. You will be seeing him many times. If you see him in the thumbnail of a video, it's a winner ;)

    I love your channel, which I found because I absolutely love Angelina Jordan. Every song I've heard her sing is just so amazing.
    I completely understand about your doggie and I know how hard it is. I've lost 3 of my dogs since October of 2018. They were all around the same age and then when they get older and start having medical problems. 2 of them were just this year in January and then in March. The sadness does get better but there are days where it still overwhelms me and I cry because I miss them so much. I do feel blessed that I had them for all of there lives. They were all over 12 years old. I only have one left from my pack of 4 and he is 14. I feel sad for him because I know he has to miss them and wonder where they are.
    On a lighter note, I love watching your videos and I think I've watched all of the Angelina Jordan reactions. You have a great personality and you remind me so much of my PA at my doctors office. She has the same bright personality as you and is always smiling.

Maybe 5 or 6 would be easy, but after that it gets hard. This one is top 5 for me.

    @lynettepascua4730 4 года назад +4

    A not well known Adelle song that Angelina gave new life, one of my favorites of Angelina. I think one reason Angelina can give such emotion to this song it is around this time she started to see the sacrifices her family makes for her choice of wanting to be a singer, within the next year she writes her song "Shield" in which is written to her family and in it she sings "Forgive me for what I am". Even though Angelina is a very happy child and fun and funny. She has a sence of empathy that is extraodinary for her age. I am so sorry for your loss, I had a boxer growing up his name was Duke, they are great dogs.

I agree with you and believe she is the voice of a lifetime that comes around every 30-40 years.

    Maunalee. It was nice to see your emotional response. Watching your “reviews” is a slow motion version of how I reacted over three solid weeks Of watching/listening to Angelina everyday. There are many more reactions to go but they all build and build to eventually one realizes this AJ is a gift from the universe. How’s it possible for Angelina to channel all the minute vocal nuances? I’m not religious but AJ is making me rethink that. Again, good reaction. You are my fav reactor out of 15 subscribed channels! Do more reactions!

    In my humble opinion, Angelina does Adele better than Adele, Lana Del Rey better than Lana, etc. She pulls out more emotional impact while being overall vocally/musically more enjoyable to my ears. I feel so fortunate.

    A musical prodigy, Angelina Jordan sang for the first time at barely a year old, and she never stopped.
    The Los Angeles-based 14-year-old singer and songwriter amplified her voice around the globe, racking up over half-a-billion RUclips views, just shy of 2 billion Facebook views, and praise from Time, CNN, The BBC, and People. Along the way, she performed for world leaders at some of the most influential events in Europe, appeared on European and North American television, and quietly enraptured a growing fan base.
    In 2020, she brings a soulful signature sound to life with her Republic Records debut.
    The breadth of Angelina’s soulful and deep alto vocal delivery showcases a rare class of musical aptitude that you would attribute to an old soul, and legendary talent, well beyond her years.
    “I feel like I’ve lived many years more than my age. I feel like music found me. I want people to get connected to my music and my lyrics and to share something special with the love I have for music."
    Angelina went from belting out Whitney Houston’s “I Will Always Love You” to immersing herself in jazz at five-years-old. She discovered Ella Fitzgerald, Frank Sinatra, and Louis Armstrong by combing jazz playlists across RUclips. At eight-years-old, she won Norway’s Got Talent with a viral rendition of Billie Holiday’s “Gloomy Sunday.” Labels and producers feverishly sought her out, but she already possessed a clear picture of what her path would be.
    Taking her time, she opted to carefully hone her voice through countless hours of practice, gigs, and writing.
    “It was really great, but I knew I wanted something bigger,” she admits. “I didn’t want to jump into it until I felt I was ready.”
    She got “ready” through a series of historic performances. She graced the stage of the 2014 Nobel Peace Prize Ceremony and delivered an emotionally charged rendition of “What A Wonderful World.” A year later, she wowed an audience at Brilliant Minds in Stockholm. Touching down in Seoul during 2017, she joined a powerhouse bill alongside PSY and Norah Jones in front of 40,000 people at Muse In City Festival. Quincy Jones personally invited her to perform at his 85th birthday at London’s O2 Arena.
    Every time she took the stage, she was notably barefoot, which remains one of her signatures thus far.
    “A long time ago, I was traveling with my family, and I met a young homeless girl with no shoes,” she recalls. “She was barefoot, so I gave her my shoes because I really wanted to help her. Today, I sing barefoot as a reminder of all the kids in the world who need help and support.”
    Along the way, GRAMMY® Award-winning production duo Stargate [Beyoncé, Sam Smith, Rihanna] reached out, and they initiated a fervent creative partnership together. She continued to write lyrics, compose on piano and guitar, and record. Catching the attention of Republic Records, she inked a deal with the label in 2020.
    Now, she formally introduces herself on the single “Million Miles.” With lyrics exclusively penned by Angelina, her robust delivery sails over sparse piano on the verses as the track builds towards a sweeping refrain, “We’re a million miles apart. It’s pulling my heart."
    “Million Miles” is about losing someone you really love,” she explains. “This song is very personal to me, because I had never felt the feeling of losing someone before I wrote this.”
    With more music on the horizon, there is more of Angelina’s captivating voice and songwriting in store.
    “I hope you feel connected to the music and the stories behind the songs,” she leaves off. “Love is the most powerful thing though. That’s the message.”

    It’s funny how she just rips your heart out with that voice and emotion but at the end it’s like she’s just happy to be there🤣 Just think how much emotion she’ll be able to rip out of folks when she’s older and actually has life history to pull from. Will be amazing.

    She has so much emotion in this song, she takes my heart on a ride, after tears form and I'm visiting regrets in my life the song ends she smiles and yells...bye!!! I'm like what the hell just happened. At 60 y/o no other singer has moved my spirit like this young lady. It's hard for me to explain it.

    So you obviously know by now that this is an Adele song. And it is crazy that little, meaning young, can sing this song with so much passion and sound like she trully lived a million years. There is a video on yt with side by side with Adele. An it is pretty mindblowing.

    That was Ivan Mendez. He only worked with her one summer, but they worked excellently together. I love to watch his face while she is singing and see his reactions! He did an interview with reactor Alan Papier on U Tube and said that they would usually record in one or two takes which is why you will see her looking at the words a lot. The other guitarist you see with her a lot is Egil who is Norwegian. He has been working with her from way back, and they work very well together also. I noticed on a previous video that you called the 8 ball a “he” which just goes to prove my earlier comment that an evil entity inhabits that object, and you need to get it out of your house!
