The pianist in this studio version is Two times Grammy Award winner Rob Christie the musical director of a Republic Records who Angelina signed with, Angelina wrote the song as a tribute to her Grandfather who passed away and for anyone who has lost a loved one!
Absolutely phenomenal original song from Angelina, not her first original but Angelina’s first original when she signed with Republic Records at 14 years old, Angelina has 4 versions of Million Miles, the studio version the musical video version where Angelina’s Uncle and sister Juliette are both featured and Angelina’s Grandma shot the video, the artistic version where Angelina’s grandmother did the artwork, the 4th version at Angelina’s live concerts in her hometown in Norway 🇳🇴 last summer which I was fortunate to attend and Angelina was phenomenal live, great reaction thanks for
Not only that, personal opinion, the greatest Talent born for 17 years to now but, a wonderful writer for very sweet and very deep texts, an exceptional singer but never for herself and always addressed to the listener, an incredible gift for anyone love the most beautiful music, beautiful reaction, good life and music..Massimo
Rob Christie is Playing Piano, and he is AJ's A&R person with Republic Records/Universal Music Group. That dude playing the piano is Rob Christie Republic Records Studio Director at Universal Music Group Manhattan Beach, California, and he has been working with AJ since she signed with the largest record company in the world at the age of 14, two years ago. Rob was the MC of AJ Christmas Show that aired Dec 23, of 21. AJ’s Christmas Show that live-streamed on Dec 23 of 21 had some of the most important musicians of our time: Frank Sinatra's drummer for 6 years, and sun in-law of the late Henry Mancini, Greg Field has won 9 Grammys, and the bass player, Chuck Berghofer who also played for Sinatra for 6 years, and toured with Barbara Streisand, accompanied AJ on her Christmas Show, and they stated that she had the "storytelling ability of the greats, Streisand, Fitzgerald, Vaughan, including Sinatra, to name a few. The main pianist, a five-time nominated for Grammys, Shelly Berg, stated in all his years working with the greatest vocalist, he had never encountered a talent like AJ. Did I forget to mention Jimmy Z, the famous Sax Player who worked with Rod Steward, Etta James, the Eurythmics, and Doctor Dre, was part of the band for the show? Jimmy stated that AJ was the best he has ever played for. Rob Christie Republic Records Studio Director at Universal Music Group Manhattan Beach, California played the guitar, and was the MC of the show. (I can't list the complete backgrounds on all the band members because it would take several pages to do them justice.) Angelina stated that she would rather perform than take a breath, and she has never been forced to perform, it has been her decision.
My son passed 6/30/21. The worst day of my life. Almost 2 years ago. Did not realize how bad I needed to hear this again at this time. Thank you for sharing Angelina. I feel a little better.
Man, I'm so sorry to hear about your loss. I have a son myself and I just can't imagine what it would feel like to lose him. My thoughts are with you, my friend♥ It's a good thing we have Angelina, right ? She's pure balm to your soul.
What was the song about? Did you listen to what she was singing, and not just how? Music is intended to move us in some way or another. Some will make you smile, or laugh, because it's just fun. Some will make you think, and become a little introspective. Some will make you want to get up and dance, and celebrate life and have fun. Some may even be able to help with the grieving process. I've cried so many times listening to this song, especially her live performances last summer, where she slowed the song down, and really expressed even more the depth of emotion. Written by Angelina at 14, following the passing of her grandfather, when she recorded the original studio track, she admitted that there were tears rolling down her cheeks, such was the cathartic experience of being able to express the power and depth of the emptiness of her loss. She wrote and recorded it such that all of us could even vicariously touch those feelings in our life experience, and allow ourselves to grieve along with her. A landmark song!
e pluribus u-num With all the gimmicks that are used in what is known as music today it is so refreshing to come across a being that does not need auto tune, lightshows, dancers, outrageous costumes, bands, or orchestras to cover their weaknesses because she has none. AJ can perform a Capella, or with one or two instruments to follow her lead and give you chills with each performance. I have always enjoyed all genres of music, and being 75, I have experienced the best the industry has to offer, from the early 50s, to 2023, but I have never been moved emotionally in the past anywhere close to what Angelina Jordan does from 7 to 17. When I heard Celine Dion perform in a tint in Québec when she was a child, I predicted she would be the next world superstar, and the rest is history. Celine did not sign a record contract until she was in her early 20s. David Foster, who made Celine a star flew to Norway after Angelina wone NGT and tried to sign her, but her family wanted to stay in control of her future. Angelina, at 13, appeared on AGT and getting worldwide recognition signed with the largest record company in the world at age 14, Republic Records. The story is that Monty Lipman, the CEO, and known as the Star Maker, personally signed her even without meeting AJ, he was shown a video of her performance. Angelina Jordan will be the next Super Nova very soon. As for being her biggest fan, e pluribus u-num.
I am rather surprised that you did not mention the importance of the lyrics in this song. Did you not realise that it was about the death of a loved one?
Beautiful song
Indeed
