I was listening to a seasoned performer singing this song only this afternoon. It sounded great. Then I listened to this again and there is simply no contest. I'm not sure why, but Angelina wins hands down. There's a reality about her singing which grown-up professionals just don't have.
I think we owe a HUGE thank you to all of the folks that have filmed her performances and uploaded them so we can go back in time and experience them. Not just once, but over and over. If we ever send another Voyager-type spacecraft out into space with an upgraded Golden Record, It needs to include a full track of Angelina singing...
This is such a wonderful performance with her and a small band. Angelina made such a great personal arrangement of this epic song. The trombone solo is great as well! Watching it is soul food and much better than watching crappy TV stuff and facing bad weather.
Great reaction Mr.J...my brain broke a long long time ago listening to this young music genius, but you actually get used to it after a while and no longer look at Angelina as a child or young person, simply a music professional going back to 7-8 years old and beyond, it is kind of uncanny but our eyes and ears cannot deceive us.. 🥰🥰🥰🥰
Enjoying your AJ journey. She really does enter her own little world when she is singing. Yes… her voice is 🔥 But she has remained humble and a bit shy when she comes back to the real world. That’s one of the things I love most about this amazing young artist.
Hi Mr J 👋. Nice reaction to 11 Angie. She is sublime. She also sang " Diamonds are forever" a James Bond theme at that concert when she was 11. Here's another amazing song she did and she down into the 2nd octave. "You make me feel so young " she was 13 here covering this Frank Sinatra song 🎵 and she did it in a type of duet style were she sings both male and female parts. 🙂👍❤🙏
Mr. J, does it break your brain that a couple of months before this concert, Angelina was finishing the 5th grade at her Elementary School in Oslo. Then she skipped the 6th grade & moved to LA with her family.
This whole concert is one I frequently go back to, and I cannot thank Boris enough for recording it all for us! And sharing it with everybody; just THANK YOU, Boris! Seeing musicians reacting to Angelina is such a pleasure, too! 🥰
Great reaction again 🙂 Yes, Angelina is always good, but sometimes she's able to turn the nob up another level, which is crazy. This very concert when she was 11 years old is one of those examples. She was on total 🔥🔥🔥 throughout. "Lovin' You" is still lacking its equal as far as I am concerned. Much love from Norway ♥♥♥♥♥
Can you imagine what Republic Records found out after signing AJ at 14, this girl has been performing in from of large audiences around the world since she was 7 years old and knocking their socks off.
This song is a jazz classic that has been covered by all the greats. It's really hard to understand how it could be that one of the very greatest performances was by an 11 year old girl.
You never know what’s gonna come out of her mouth never say something else every time I hear a whole system or mouth it’s something different, so I got a new all time lover
Julie London is considered to have made 'The gold Standard' rendition of this song back in 1955. To me, Angelina's version is 'The Platinum Standard' !
Fiirst! Hello, You're one of those people who mean it honestly. I thank you very much for that. Very soon everyone will know our secret, you're just in time for the party.
When I watch eleven year old Angelina’s performances and then look back at what I was doing at that age I just shake my head at how extraordinarily mature she was in comparison.
I absolutely love that she has this one on Apple Music, it’s one of my favorites and I am an original angel watched her as far back as when she was 8! Thank you for reacting to this one 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
You know every band, orchestra, accompaniment knows theyre being folded in music history and being seen by the whole world in these videos. Billions of views
Yes, unbelivable! I remember I had just got my first bike at that age..😅 I have been to some jazzconserts, but I can't remember anyone touching me like her, and not only because of her age..😊
Cry Me a River (Arthur Hamilton song) "Cry Me a River" is a popular American torch song, written by Arthur Hamilton, first published in 1953 and made famous in 1955 with the version by Julie London. Published: 1953
This was a killer performance. She did "Lovin' You" here. You need to hear her other performance of this same song, a completely different take on the song. ruclips.net/video/73T6ufKk_LU/видео.html
The small jazz band backs her up perfectly here, it's such a smooth performance. The other one with the orchestra you linked is very different, more power and Angelina and orchestra work incredibly well together. Here you can see again that it's always worth watching a second or third performance, even if you think - she's already sung that.
I’ve noticed her non-singing behavior also. And her return to childhood. I get the feeling that when she’s not singing she’s not exactly sure what to do with herself. Like she’s thinking ‘well, you came to watch me sing, and I’m not singing what should I be doing?’ Especially when she was younger. Now that she’s getting a little older it’s not so pronounced.
@@snailart14 I agree. I wasn’t criticizing. I find it quite endearing. It’s just something I’ve noticed. But it is a reminder she’s just a special little girl. But still a little girl nonetheless.
I too came here to get away from the "news". Great concert. I believe she did Diamonds are Forever in this set and Lovin You (I Just Want to Make Love to You).
Regarding the sound balance: No professional cameras were allowed during this concert. You can see some men filming, they probably had permission to film professionally. What we see is filmed with a cell phone. I have heard from some who were there that all the audio for the audience was excellent.
I am pretty sure that Boris used a camcorder here. There are two clips available showing snippets from the professional recordings: ruclips.net/video/RZEG3dOzTzo/видео.html&pp=iAQB and ruclips.net/video/K3nOb7CPeKg/видео.html&pp=iAQB8AUB
Absolutely a must see, Angelina being a kid goofing around yet still singing perfectly, she is so serious about her music and yet she knows how to have fun as well: ruclips.net/video/FjbSTRonqEU/видео.html
This is one of my absolutely favourites of Angelina... my favourite version of her singing this song (though they are all great... including her very funny rehearsal: ruclips.net/video/FjbSTRonqEU/видео.html )
When you listen to this with your eyes closed, the absolute last thing your mind pictures is an 11 year old girl. You’re more likely taken to a smoke filled jazz club where this little wizard has transported you with her magical vocal skills. When she performed “My Funny Valentine” last Valentines Day as a sixteen year old, instead of watching the video, I closed my eyes and felt like I was in a piano bar in the 1940’s! Angelina has always had the ability to interpret and sing a song the way it was intended, no matter her age! She sang this song (My Funny Valentine) in a very sensual and sultry way and I believe that’s the reason she’s not shown singing it live in the video. That’s just my opinion, so please, no backlash!
She's inspiring all musicians to give their best. They don't want to see her shining 🌟 alone 🙏ruclips.net/video/3HUQZFSPBNQ/видео.html Here's a link from an interview a Year later where she explained the world where she is going when she's singing 😍

I wrote about the trombone before seeing your comment Bart... the trombonist really is superb !
@@geoffreynorth9046 yeah she really surrounds herself with superb musicians!
@Bart Pieters Most of the time, been a couple of concert where the band could have done some more rehearsals...

I agree 💯!
"Lovin' You' is insane...

And the second greatest performance...her two are the top two imo
She should have had a 70mm film crew documenting every appearance she ever had.
She is music! 🎼
love how she shares with the band .
You never know what’s gonna come out of her mouth never say something else every time I hear a whole system or mouth it’s something different, so I got a new all time lover
Angelina took this song away from Julie London, the long-standing benchmark for this classic!

of this song back in 1955. To me, Angelina's version is 'The Platinum Standard' !

Same concert but just contrast the grit of 'Loving You' to the sultry torch song of Cry Me A River.

11!!
Yes, unbelivable! I remember I had just got my first bike at that age..😅
I have been to some jazzconserts, but I can't remember anyone touching me like her, and not only because of her age..😊
She is amazing at any one of her ages. I love her unconditionally and believe she deserves nothing less. I wish we had more of her and less flotsam.
Angelina (11) sings Cry me a River, the song has not been sung this good in Norway since Ella Fitzgerald (60) did it in Oslo in 1978.
AJ at about 11 years old, can you imagine having that much talent at any age.
💗💗💗
There it is, the smile 😊
Awesome reaction and she always brings it, God Bless!
Great performance , great backup music

Great concert. I believe she did Diamonds are Forever in this set and Lovin You (I Just Want to Make Love to You).
I can't wait for you to react to her Etta James cover I'd Rather Go Blind. She was 12 not 13

for fun try the 'funny' rehearsal of this song in studio
It is brilliant though must be for a different performance as it's with different musicians: ruclips.net/video/FjbSTRonqEU/видео.html

Hi Mr J. How ya doing❤
Don’t know if you have her rendition of Loving You when AJ was 11. Wild and gorgeous.
The other song you watched on this same set was Lovin You
I had ulcer, and they helped a lot.
She's inspiring all musicians to give their best. They don't want to see her shining 🌟 alone 🙏ruclips.net/video/3HUQZFSPBNQ/видео.html

Check out project mockingbird, you may not want to watch so much news. Its bad for your health. Lol
Good reaction, but like all of us when it comes to Angelina Jordan you have a tendency to run out of words describing her. She is not comprehensible.
Here is an even better performance of this same song just a year or two later: ruclips.net/video/ViNgjfrc1dQ/видео.html
Almost exactly one year later.
Actually, I much prefer this more intimate version to that one with the full orchestra!
I'd rather go blind is another great one by Angelina Jordan.
