Angelina is amazing.. I would be curious to get your take on another in the America's Got Talent/BGT Champion's compilation, Darci Lynne the Singer Ventriloquist 12 at the time with Petunia was amazing as well.
I just came back to this and I have to tell you, your analysis of what Angelina is doing was something wonderful and I have to admit I didn't appreciate it as much as I should have the first time. At her very early age she equated breathing and singing as one and has been quoted as saying she is most comfortable in her life when she is on stage singing for people. She became aware when she was 7 the affect she had on people, bringing them happiness, hope and most of all love and when asked the question of how she can do this she replies by telling us she goes off to some beautiful place, she doesn't know exactly where it is but it's somewhere that transforms her voice into a sound of love, genuine love and she takes us to that beautiful place with her. I know you focus on a performers style and everything musical in general but it is obvious there is so much more going on when we listen to Angelina. Millions of us around the world feel her love and we love her in return and all of us have become family. Extraordinary? Incredible. Thanks, Elizabeth!
Sinatra's 1964 version of Fly Me to the Moon was arranged by the not entirely unknown Quincy Jones. When Quincy turned 85 a celebration concert was arranged at O2 arena in London where Angelina, on Quincy's request, sang Fly Me to the Moon.
Always happy to see you come back to Angelina! As I said in my first request to you three years ago, if anyone has a "charismatic voice" it is Angelina Jordan. The amount of character she is able to put into a song is astounding. She uses timing, and pronunciations in such special ways, and she somehow always makes things seem so natural and organic. It's so controlled, and yet so free at the same time. She's such a unique and special artist. It has been awesome to watch her develop her artistry over all these years.
RUSTY SHACKLEFORD. Please tell someone who might listen that in order to protect Angelinas voice long term the sound balance between her voice in the new concerts is wrong. She needs it turned up in the relation to the band. Then she does not need to project and strain her voice so much. The band is overwhelming . Angelina is the star.
@@anitaherbert1037 Please refer to which recordings you heard, because some came from a location where the instruments dominated, while other recordings came from locations accentuating the vocals. Have you listened to these … Mattias: ruclips.net/video/BU7zp1zodvg/видео.html (close to the stage) and Vidar: ruclips.net/video/2Z8N1Xy62Mk/видео.html (far from the stage, maybe a wider audio rage of high and low pitches).
@@dojoswitzer a really good sound engineer would solve the problem for all positions. I thought Angelina sounded great but she is only 16 and I come from a medical family. No matter how great she sounds the long term damage to immature vocal chords( which is a medical age not how great she sounds) happens when the young singers really project to balance a band rather than singing as she does in the studio. This is compounded when they sing too many numbers over a short period of time. We are all greedy for Angelina. We can't get enough and she is a generous person who loves to please. I want her to still sound great at 80 like Tom Jones. Not continuous issues like Adele. Or have you heard Annie Lennox lately.
@@anitaherbert1037 Pehaps you would also like to know the performers don’t hear what at the audience hears, because they have their own set of speakers pointing at them; so a recording from an audience phone isn’t going to detect that. I typically gauge my concerns about protecting AJ’s voice on comments from vocal coaches who watch her performances and comment upon singing techniques and actions by the singer to put sound into the sound system, rather than what comes out of a sound system.
@@dojoswitzer I accept what you are saying. I repeat this is nothing to do with what she sounds like. This is to do with the different rates different body tissues mature at and stabilise at, and how over use of them affects the long term flexibility and increases likelyhood of developing problems later. A vocal coach may have different levels of education on human anatomy. Thier knowledge is dependant upon the information imparted to them. The anatomy books I read were aimed at doctors and forensic medicine.
Absolutely AMAZING. You could talk about so many things but for me it's her TONE...so smooth and controlled. Had to remind myself several times this is a 8 year old kid. One word: PRODIGY. 👍❤️️🎵
Dearest Elizabeth, I run as fast as I can to your channel when I see you've reacted to Angelina. She touches my heart deeply when she sings as she does to many others. The pure joy you have for singing is infectious. I've missed your reactions to her and I'm looking forward to your expert analysis of her gift.
Elizabeth, you say that we are programmed to respond emotionally to sound. Thank you for bringing us the beauty of music. Sometimes I am engrossed in troubling issues when I click on one of your episodes. As soon as you say, "Welcome back..." and smile, I smile and begin to relax. Your obvious joy in analyzing music translates so well in your videos. Thank you.
First of all, thank you for choosing to react to THIS song. It was truly refreshing to hear a reaction to one of Angelina's older songs other than her latest (excellent) release of "Suspicious Minds" for a change! Regarding her "stage presence": I recently read that when someone asked Angelina if she was nervous during her audition of Billie Holiday's "Gloomy Sunday" on Norway's Got Talent, she simply explained, "No, I was singing."
I enjoy your reactions & the thoughts that you share. Such a genuine person that you are draws me into your observations intelligently expressed. Well done.
I hope you continue on the Angelina Journey. You are one of the few great reactors on RUclips. It is such a pleasure hearing you. There is so much more from Angelina.
Which version of "Cry Me a River" by Angelina Jordan do you prefer? Her fans are split. ruclips.net/video/jV8HIVL2VDE/видео.html ruclips.net/video/ViNgjfrc1dQ/видео.html
Been waiting forever for another one of your Angelina reactions. You are so knowledgeable & precise in your assessments. I appreciate that about you, thus look forward to your reactions.
That "singing out of the side of her mouth" is something that she has never done before or after this song which leads me to believe that this was a deliberate choice to produce that sound on those particular words. Even at a very young age, Angelina would employ identical phrasings and vocal ornamentation progressions of the previous line to create sophisticated musical rhyming schemes. I think a lot of times when people point out Angelina's improper enunciations or techniques, that these are not mistakes, but rather intentional artistic choices.
What a beautyful rendition, so majestic and impeccable. God bless her.. And of course I do apprecite your words concerning Angelina you always accurate, She deserves all the attention due to her incredible talent which IMHO
Thanks for you reaction. Angelina dropped a video on her patreon showing the rehearsels leading op to this video. She sang it again and again and you get the feeling that she didn't need all these rehearsels. Maybe most for the film crew. Despite the fact that it looked like hard work, you couldn't see it on her. She just loves to sing.
When you first hear Angelina singing these classics it's hard to grasp what your ears are hearing. You hear the stylistic nuances of the great singers but your eyes can't believe they could be coming from someone so young. But on a second or third listen you realize that not only can she sing the notes but that she is adding her own incredible stylistic touches. As that realization slowly sinks in you realize my god she knows exactly what she's doing and precisely how she wants to do it. It's like she knows she has this amazing instrument and that it can do exactly what she wants it do and so she pushes it to create a whole range of subtle effects. Vibrato, airiness, rasp, wide interval jumps where she leaps to target notes and hits them pitch perfect every time, like she's running this vocal obstacle course and doing it with effortless ease. And she's so effortless that there is no tension in her performance and that lack of tension gives it a sottness and intimacy that performers spend a whole career trying to achieve. She may be a child but there are flashes of brilliance in this performance.
Welcome to the magical world of music as only Angelina Jordan can deliver. I am willing to wager you are much further down her rabbit hole now. As talented as Angelina is, she is an even better human being, humble almost to a fault and filled with empathy. I believe she was given the gift of song in order to spread her message of love and peace.
Of course since we're a major and amazing my funny Valentine rendition, There are 3 new ones from last week... Is to live from Norway or maybe 3 or 4 by now... And suspicious minds... A must see arrangement
it's happenning! Her release of Suspicious Minds recently now reveals her adult voice with some of the most grounded solid notes ive heard in a long time. thanls for this , Angelna is a balm is a difficult time
I love this version of the song. It's one of my top Angelina favourites. I love the playfulness and dance of the melody lines and find something new in it every time I hear it. Filled with detail - the mark of a true artist. Thank you so much for this reaction. You have a new subscriber eager to hear more Angelina reactions, especially her earlier ones.
for the first time in 60 years a singer touches my soul, gives me the feeling of understanding,,its a once in a lifetime magical experience,,,,,,,,she is not a singer, she is music
Your reactions bring me such joy and peace in this crazy world. With you, I feel as if I'm climbing inside of the song and seeing it from the inside out with almost a childlike sense of wonder and amazement. Thank you!!! 💖
Her Grandma introduced her to Jazz when she was 2 and they would listen to her Grandma's jazz records singing together since then. Her toddler brain must have just totally absorbed her Grandma's classic jazz records as part of her very young development as much as learning to talk! It's as though she absorbed three languages, Jazz, Norwegian, English...in that order! 🤣🙏😎
Oh yes! Partway through and really enjoying this one. Elizabeth, I've had the exact same impression listening to little her singing these songs; thinking of her loving and listening and emulating them.
This one i'v been looking forward to , your beautiful reaction to Angelina 🥰, it's been a while since u did the last one 😀She done some amazing covers, since then Billie Jean * MJ ..Easy on me * Adele , My funny Valentine * another Sinatra song ..Mercy * by Buffy ..was soundtrack on movie The Hating Game ; )) and the last one * Suspicious Minds* Elvis...i my mind mb the best one from her yet ..and many many other on her TikTok an instagram . Looking forward to see you again ☝😁👍
She’s awesome and so damn great. Makes me happy that, that type of music isn’t fully dead, as it’s the last era of true music, with full up bands, and vocals, also a killer song by itself. She killed it.
Hi Elizabeth, great reaction of course, hope we don't have too wait for too long until we get to see your reaction to her recent Elvis cover "Suspicious Minds" - as many have asked you already, I suppose, and for a reason... Thanks for your channel, it's always a pleasure to watch your reactions and learn from your prolific knowledge about voice, but all the more when you're reacting to Angelina Jordan
She's absolutely amazing to any person who's ever heard her without any knowledge of music but if you listen to her and you have some musical background singing background or just are familiar with the history of those jazz singers and you realize the little intricacies she's putting into each performance it makes her even more mind-blowing
I truly love your breakdown reactions and your joyful analysis of the voice. I am so looking forward to your reaction to Angelina Jordan's latest video, her cover of suspicious minds!!!!!
Great Analysis! I have been hoping for more Angelina Jordan on your channel. Thank you soo much! Angelina's (16) cover of "Suspicious Minds" is soooo goood. I hope you review it soon. I believe it portrays the song in the way it should have originally been sung. She has this way of interpreting a song that is captivating and memorizing. Mega Goose-bumps from the very first word.
Really enjoyed your reaction Elizabeth. I would love to see you react to her newest release of “Suspicious Minds” by Elvis Presley. It is amazing. Thanks, as always.
Angelina has said that her singing this song for Quincy Jones at his 85th birthday celebration in London in 2018 was the highlight of her career to date.
I totally love your AJ reactions, so insightful and fun to watch. On you're next reaction, you just cannot miss her latest Elvis cover, Suspicious Minds...
Awesome reaction and analysis, as always, thanks so much for sharing! 💖 How about a double reaction, Angelina age 10 and age 16 singing 'My funny valentine. Its really interesting to hear all the things she tries to do at 10, and then hearing it all perfected at 16. First one is so heartwarming that you might shed a tear. Second one is technically level super-elite, and an absolute treat for your ears 😍
"Catching the wave." It almost sounds like Angelina begins the next note while still inhaling, never letting her voice stop. One of her idols is Quincy Jones who arranged this song for Sinatra, and who she sang for at his 75th birthday.
Great rxn! Wow what an analysis of this young prodigy we missed you. Yes it's been awhile, can you please check out her new cover of Suspicious minds. Thanks!!!
Great to see you back!! Hope baby is doing awesome.... Very happy you got around to Angelina, you'd be SO enchanted viewing her 10yr old voice tackling My Funny Valentine, not an easy song to sing, but singing from a living room chair, she manages to show, (like a little bird flapping it's tiny wings "I can FLY!!!") and does she!!! At 16 1/2, she's touring in Norway, and putting final touches on her debut album with Republic Records.. There's so much territory to explore for you and sadly you'll probably never hear... But, I appreciate that you drop in on Angelina every once and a while... Best to you and yours... Motherhood suits you!! 🤗👏🏻👏🏻🎤🎵🎶. PEACE🙏🏻
a voice coach remarked that angelina has figured out how to take a breath without pausing that she somehow dives right back into next note. i love ur reactions and analysis. you are such a beautiful and interesting person. angelina just dropped " suspicious minds " only angelina can look like elvis and priscilla at the same time...a piano arrangement art and antique gallery. not even close to original ...this is soooo emotional...angelina arrived in norway a couple days ago and revisited whitney's i have nothing. she not only sounded stunning she looked stunning...
So very glad you are back reacting to AJ as your comments especially on those vocal subtleties from her are so educational to a layman like me. Learned aplenty from every of your reaction and always eagerly waiting for more, She has just released (to me) a very sensational piece covering Elvis's Suspicious Mind and hope you can react to this, please. Many thanks again.
Elizabeth, thank you very much for another great analysis for Angelina Jordan. Angelina is easily the most accomplished child vocalist of all time. More importantly, she has a special soul, filled with empathy and says she wants to spread a message of peace and love through her music. We are blessed she was born into a loving and caring family, who signed her with Republic Records at age 14 but requested Angelina be allowed as normal a childhood as possible. Now at age 16, she will be performing 3 concerts in Norway on July 1, 7 and 10 and she has promised a album with new original songs to be released sometime this year. One thing that has baffled me Elizabeth, is why your good friend, and fellow vocal coach, Julia Nilon has only featured Angelina once on her channel. Julia told us that her specialty is the development of the vocal chords on children ages 7 to 12. I think it would be great fun to have the two of you together, reacting to another early performance by Angelina, such as Every Time We Say Goodbye, when Angelina was 10 years old.
One of my very favorite Angelina performance at any age. I just love your enthusiastic approach. We can all see how much you adore this girl as all her fans do. Your face is just full of delight with a little tongue action. You're almost as adorable as Angelina. You are my absolute favorite reactor. And I'm talking 100s. I absolutely love your analysis. As just an uninformed music lover you explain so even I can understand it. And dear! You just rewind as often as you like. I loved hearing how you broke it down. Here is my modified list minus the ones you've done. I love this girl and I love your reactions.

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 ♥👣 Never have I seen Angelina go so deeply into this world as she does here. She is just immediately in it and I from the first note am there with her! If you could only listen to one Artist for the rest of your life who would it be? That would be Angelina for me. No Doubt about it! ♥ If you only had one song. This would be it! ♥👣

Thank you so much for returning too Angelina. Fly me to the moon is something she sang many times including for Quincy Jones 84th Birthday at age 12 a stunning performance. There is a studio version around age 9 with a music video that is nicer than the view. If you really want to go to the start, watch (even if you do not react on YT) her 4 live NGT Norways got talent performances, they are short and stunning (Ages 7 to 8). Gloomy Sunday, I'm a fool to want you (acapella), Bang Bang, and Summertime. Of course she has plenty of current material to respond to as well. Best.
As you watch more Angelina, you’ll see that on jazzy songs like this that she has sung multiple times at different ages, she sings it differently each time. We get true improvisational jazz singing even when she’s this young-or even younger if you watch her earliest version of Summertime (also at 8 years old) on Norway’s Got Talent. Incredible timing, sometimes slightly behind the beat, but always in absolute control. One of my favorites is Angelina, live, with a great jazz band behind her, giving us her interpretation of Cry Me a River. I’m old enough to remember the amazing version by Julie London. Like other classics (California Dreamin, Bohemian Rhapsody, Goodbye, Yellow Brick Road…), I didn’t think the originals could or should be touched until I heard how beautifully and respectfully Angelina interprets them.
Sinatra himself once said he never sings a song twice the same time. The fact they can do that without the song sounding that different or worse, sounding horrible, is amazing.
I'm an older trumpet player who is looking forward to your reaction/explanation of the vocals in this tune. I know that in watching you the past few months, your knowledge and observations are just spot on... the breathing descriptions, the projection explanations, breath support and dynamics and even physical stance are identical to how it should be done playing a brass instrument! You've helped my playing by reminding me what I should be doing! Maybe you should also teach horns, huh? Hehheh!
I loved this. As a fan I didn't bother watching her music video for this one she did at 9, thinking I had already seen this. But as a fan you absolutely have to check that out for yourself, reaction or not. As cool as her 'I Put a Spell on You' cover from that age. When I finally watched it I was a bit upset it isn't one of her go too's for fans to suggest. It's super cool phrasing much like this, but different and just better. As complete and polished, fun and her own, as 'I put a spell on you' as well.
I love how you capture and respond to all the many nuances that Angelina brings to her singing--we'd never fully appreciate what she's doing if you didn't point out the techniques she's using. What's so remarkably is how both her technique and her emotive powers are equally developed
This little girl began selecting music to listen to on a tablet while she was still learning to talk. At 2 years old she walked around with a tablet listening to jazz. Safe to say jazz is one of her (several) native languages. You can see her close her eyes and enter into the music track playing in her head and just replicate it at an extraordinary level of fidelity .. of course with whatever color she choses to add from her extensive repertoire of classic techniques. All very deliberate and reproducible. Love your analyses, thanks.
I’ve been watching Angelina Jordan since she’s one and a half years old singing jazz. I follow her all these years she’s 17 now and she’s gonna be a superstar. There’s nothing to stop I washed her from the time she was one and a half that’s why she’s 17 and she is in Mackinac. She’s 6 foot tall now invoices rode with her, she is amazing. She got invited to go sang at the Pfizer soccer award show at her and read one. Did you do all the other it was mine blowing oh by the way she sat. There was a guesstimate 350, million paper saw this, and she stepped on the stage she was still barefooted.
One of the reasons she looks so comfortable is that she has been performing/recording for a quarter of her life and probably all of the part that she can remember. At this point she has already won The Norwegian version of americas got talent at age seven, There is also a video of her recording I who have nothing at age 6. Its her first time on a recording studio and she kills it. At least one person has posted that her mother tried to get her on americas got talent when she was five but they refused to audition her because she was to young. If this is true little angie may have been belting at age 4 or 5…
I love it how you are so happy when listening to her and kept starting, stopping, explaining things, go back to start, start again etc. Very interesting how you explain it all, but I have said that before :-) She is always very relaxed and happy on stage. In an interview she said that she gets energy from the audience and that she enters a happy place when she performs. She has listened a lot to the classics and has apparently a great instinct how to reproduce those sounds at will. I don’t know if you have seen her sing Bang Bang at Norway got Talent: she sings it with very little vibrato so even then she could turn it on and off. Her singing to the side might have had something to do with her changing her teeth? She has grown a lot over the years: she must be practicing very hard as well. She sang the same song for Quincy Jones’ 85th birthday party and in it you can hear a lot of growth already. Very recently she covered Elvis’ cover of Mark James’ Suspicious Minds and I think you will be wow-ed by that. Thanks!
We just released merchandise! Check out the full line-up here: thecharismaticmerch.com
Please please do a review on Rainbow Kitten Suprise. Their best is devil like me, first class and cocaine jeasus.
Angelina is amazing.. I would be curious to get your take on another in the America's Got Talent/BGT Champion's compilation, Darci Lynne the Singer Ventriloquist 12 at the time with Petunia was amazing as well.
Ok. Lets say 2030, then.
I have decided we should get merried in 2028/29. Agree?
She never sings a cover, she channels/embodies the soul of the original performer
I just came back to this and I have to tell you, your analysis of what Angelina is doing was something wonderful and I have to admit I didn't appreciate it as much as I should have the first time. At her very early age she equated breathing and singing as one and has been quoted as saying she is most comfortable in her life when she is on stage singing for people.

I know you focus on a performers style and everything musical in general but it is obvious there is so much more going on when we listen to Angelina. Millions of us around the world feel her love and we love her in return and all of us have become family. Extraordinary? Incredible. Thanks, Elizabeth!
The man playing the guitar is a true professional.
Absolutely! I was wondering who he was when I saw this comment. As much as she is 'retro' in style, so is the guitarist.
Ooops should have gone to the video itself ... Steve Conte (New York Dolls, Michael Monroe Band)
A monthly Angelina Jordan reaction would be a real blessing.
8 years old, singling like she's been at it for for 50. I love this girl 😎
From my home country, Norway. Angel.
Sinatra's 1964 version of Fly Me to the Moon was arranged by the not entirely unknown Quincy Jones. When Quincy turned 85 a celebration concert was arranged at O2 arena in London where Angelina, on Quincy's request, sang Fly Me to the Moon.

Always happy to see you come back to Angelina! As I said in my first request to you three years ago, if anyone has a "charismatic voice" it is Angelina Jordan.

@@dojoswitzer a really good sound engineer would solve the problem for all positions. I thought Angelina sounded great but she is only 16 and I come from a medical family.

This is compounded when they sing too many numbers over a short period of time. We are all greedy for Angelina. We can't get enough and she is a generous person who loves to please.

Her voice is so special and thanks to you I now hear new things in her singing. 😍

Agree. I've heard her described as a once-in-a-lifetime talent. She's incredible.
Absolutely brilliant!
What a gift.... and what a treasure!
She was born to sing, God given talent for sure. 🙂
Beautiful... more Angelina, please!!!
I love her singing I put a spell on you! Great young artist!
"It's a man's world" and "Feeling good" is a must!

Wow, che bellissima reaction ad Angelina! Grazie mille!!! ☺🥰✌🏻🇮🇹💙
First of all, thank you for choosing to react to THIS song. It was truly refreshing to hear a reaction to one of Angelina's older songs other than her latest (excellent) release of "Suspicious Minds" for a change! Regarding her "stage presence": I recently read that when someone asked Angelina if she was nervous during her audition of Billie Holiday's "Gloomy Sunday" on Norway's Got Talent, she simply explained, "No, I was singing."
Amazing beautiful something to snap ur fingers too. 👏👏
Lovely analysis Elizabeth, thanks for the insights.
I enjoy your reactions & the thoughts that you share. Such a genuine person that you are draws me into your observations intelligently expressed. Well done.
I hope you continue on the Angelina Journey. You are one of the few great reactors on RUclips. It is such a pleasure hearing you. There is so much more from Angelina.
This young woman reminds me of a very young version of Julie London doing "Cry Mea a River". I was in tears at the end. Thank you so much.
Which version of "Cry Me a River" by Angelina Jordan do you prefer? Her fans are split.

Been waiting forever for another one of your Angelina reactions. You are so knowledgeable & precise in your assessments. I appreciate that about you, thus look forward to your reactions.
Your analysis and reactions are full of awe and joy, thanks.
That "singing out of the side of her mouth" is something that she has never done before or after this song which leads me to believe that this was a deliberate choice to produce that sound on those particular words. Even at a very young age, Angelina would employ identical phrasings and vocal ornamentation progressions of the previous line to create sophisticated musical rhyming schemes. I think a lot of times when people point out Angelina's improper enunciations or techniques, that these are not mistakes, but rather intentional artistic choices.
Great reaction! ❤ANGELina ❤
💕🌸💕Gorgeous!!… love your reaction!!
She sounds like the quintessential jazz singer, it's incredible!
This girl, Angelina, I swear has an old soul within her. The way she sings is amazing.
Reminds me if Amy Whinehouse in her prime
@@maxpowrd I hope they take care she has a childhood and doesn't end up like Amy... well, had a childhood... she's 16 already.
What a beautyful rendition, so majestic and impeccable. God bless her.. And of course I do apprecite your words concerning Angelina you always accurate, She deserves all the attention due to her incredible talent which IMHO
Thanks for you reaction. Angelina dropped a video on her patreon showing the rehearsels leading op to this video. She sang it again and again and you get the feeling that she didn't need all these rehearsels. Maybe most for the film crew. Despite the fact that it looked like hard work, you couldn't see it on her. She just loves to sing.
When you first hear Angelina singing these classics it's hard to grasp what your ears are hearing. You hear the stylistic nuances of the great singers but your eyes can't believe they could be coming from someone so young. But on a second or third listen you realize that not only can she sing the notes but that she is adding her own incredible stylistic touches. As that realization slowly sinks in you realize my god she knows exactly what she's doing and precisely how she wants to do it. It's like she knows she has this amazing instrument and that it can do exactly what she wants it do and so she pushes it to create a whole range of subtle effects. Vibrato, airiness, rasp, wide interval jumps where she leaps to target notes and hits them pitch perfect every time, like she's running this vocal obstacle course and doing it with effortless ease. And she's so effortless that there is no tension in her performance and that lack of tension gives it a sottness and intimacy that performers spend a whole career trying to achieve. She may be a child but there are flashes of brilliance in this performance.
One thing you didn't mention was her impeccable timing.
I love how giddy she makes you.
Suspicious Minds by Elvis is one of my favourite covers, by her, now.
Fantastic análisis of Angelina's vocal and musical decisions. Thanks for sharing..
I LOVE the way you analyze AJ’s singing. Please, please, please do more!!
Wow Ive never heard of her, what a voice. Looks like this is several years old now, she's been killing it since this video.
Welcome to the magical world of music as only Angelina Jordan can deliver. I am willing to wager you are much further down her rabbit hole now. As talented as Angelina is, she is an even better human being, humble almost to a fault and filled with empathy. I believe she was given the gift of song in order to spread her message of love and peace.
She just released suspicious minds, the Elvis classic. Beautiful cover.
really awesome
3 minutes and 54 seconds of goosebumps.
Suspicious Minds is from Mark James, not Elvis. You're welcome.
Of course since we're a major and amazing my funny Valentine rendition, There are 3 new ones from last week... Is to live from Norway or maybe 3 or 4 by now... And suspicious minds... A must see arrangement
@@EstrellaMatutina666 yes, Mark James wrote the song and Elvis put it on the map.
it's happenning! Her release of Suspicious Minds recently now reveals her adult voice with some of the most grounded solid notes ive heard in a long time. thanls for this , Angelna is a balm is a difficult time
Yes, she's progressed & matured over the years. But she's always been amazing.
I love this version of the song. It's one of my top Angelina favourites. I love the playfulness and dance of the melody lines and find something new in it every time I hear it. Filled with detail - the mark of a true artist. Thank you so much for this reaction. You have a new subscriber eager to hear more Angelina reactions, especially her earlier ones.
She was born with this talent she always knew what she was doing. She said when she sings the song go's in her head.
At this age Angelina said she was heavily influenced by Billie Holiday. That's the brilliant stylings you're hearing. She was just mindboggling.
for the first time in 60 years a singer touches my soul, gives me the feeling of understanding,,its a once in a lifetime magical experience,,,,,,,,she is not a singer, she is music
Your reactions bring me such joy and peace in this crazy world. With you, I feel as if I'm climbing inside of the song and seeing it from the inside out with almost a childlike sense of wonder and amazement. Thank you!!! 💖
Her Grandma introduced her to Jazz when she was 2 and they would listen to her Grandma's jazz records singing together since then. Her toddler brain must have just totally absorbed her Grandma's classic jazz records as part of her very young development as much as learning to talk! It's as though she absorbed three languages, Jazz, Norwegian, English...in that order! 🤣🙏😎
Interesting info. It pays to start very early.
No doubt Swedish (father) as well. And still ignoring grandpa, grandma, moms Japanese, and grandma's Iranian / Persian.
So beautiful
That's right, I remember posting that same thought years ago. Jazz is her first language.
Oh yes! Partway through and really enjoying this one. Elizabeth, I've had the exact same impression listening to little her singing these songs; thinking of her loving and listening and emulating them.
This one i'v been looking forward to , your beautiful reaction to Angelina 🥰, it's been a while since u did the last one 😀She done some amazing covers, since then Billie Jean * MJ ..Easy on me * Adele , My funny Valentine * another Sinatra song ..Mercy * by Buffy ..was soundtrack on movie The Hating Game ; )) and the last one * Suspicious Minds* Elvis...i my mind mb the best one from her yet ..and many many other on her TikTok an instagram . Looking forward to see you again ☝😁👍
Very nice reaction, many of us , Angelina is our favorite vocalist
Wow, such character in her voice at such a young age!
She’s awesome and so damn great. Makes me happy that, that type of music isn’t fully dead, as it’s the last era of true music, with full up bands, and vocals, also a killer song by itself. She killed it.
I cried. Honest crying. What a voice!
Angelina has that effect on me too and many others. I am addicted to having her voice hug my soul.
Hi Elizabeth, great reaction of course, hope we don't have too wait for too long until we get to see your reaction to her recent Elvis cover "Suspicious Minds" - as many have asked you already, I suppose, and for a reason... Thanks for your channel, it's always a pleasure to watch your reactions and learn from your prolific knowledge about voice, but all the more when you're reacting to Angelina Jordan
She's absolutely amazing to any person who's ever heard her without any knowledge of music but if you listen to her and you have some musical background singing background or just are familiar with the history of those jazz singers and you realize the little intricacies she's putting into each performance it makes her even more mind-blowing
The comment about using the breath immediately before the closure was great to hear as it's often overlooked.
Elizabeth, the way your eyes opened wider when she started to sing made me laugh out loud. She does that to everyone...
I truly love your breakdown reactions and your joyful analysis of the voice. I am so looking forward to your reaction to Angelina Jordan's latest video, her cover of suspicious minds!!!!!
Great Analysis! I have been hoping for more Angelina Jordan on your channel. Thank you soo much!
Angelina's (16) cover of "Suspicious Minds" is soooo goood. I hope you review it soon. I believe it portrays the song in the way it should have originally been sung. She has this way of interpreting a song that is captivating and memorizing. Mega Goose-bumps from the very first word.
Wow I've not heard anywhere technical analysis this good! The stuff you cover is fantastic!! 💫
Really enjoyed your reaction Elizabeth. I would love to see you react to her newest release of “Suspicious Minds” by Elvis Presley. It is amazing. Thanks, as always.
Big Voice Elizabeth meets Big Voice Angelina! IMPRESSIVE!
Suggestion : Angelina Jordan - Suspicious Minds (Elvis Presley Cover)
Angelina has said that her singing this song for Quincy Jones at his 85th birthday celebration in London in 2018 was the highlight of her career to date.
Amazing!!!!
I totally love your AJ reactions, so insightful and fun to watch. On you're next reaction, you just cannot miss her latest Elvis cover, Suspicious Minds...
Great reaction for this. She is amazing 👏
Sorry I missed the premiere 😔
Such an interesting and informative reaction! Don't wait a year to listen to her (just dropped) version of Suspicious Minds, please!
Awesome reaction and analysis, as always, thanks so much for sharing! 💖 How about a double reaction, Angelina age 10 and age 16 singing 'My funny valentine. Its really interesting to hear all the things she tries to do at 10, and then hearing it all perfected at 16. First one is so heartwarming that you might shed a tear. Second one is technically level super-elite, and an absolute treat for your ears 😍
"Catching the wave." It almost sounds like Angelina begins the next note while still inhaling, never letting her voice stop.
One of her idols is Quincy Jones who arranged this song for Sinatra, and who she sang for at his 75th birthday.
Woooo Norway!
Born to sing. Absolutely perfect.
I love that her timing is deliberately early or deliberately late at times, while most of the song is perfectly on time. Very jazz influenced.
Great rxn! Wow what an analysis of this young prodigy we missed you. Yes it's been awhile, can you please check out her new cover of Suspicious minds. Thanks!!!
Angelina had no fear then, no fear now. She knows her instrument and is unabashed about using it.
Great to see you back!! Hope baby is doing awesome.... Very happy you got around to Angelina, you'd be SO enchanted viewing her 10yr old voice tackling My Funny Valentine, not an easy song to sing, but singing from a living room chair, she manages to show, (like a little bird flapping it's tiny wings "I can FLY!!!") and does she!!! At 16 1/2, she's touring in Norway, and putting final touches on her debut album with Republic Records.. There's so much territory to explore for you and sadly you'll probably never hear... But, I appreciate that you drop in on Angelina every once and a while... Best to you and yours... Motherhood suits you!! 🤗👏🏻👏🏻🎤🎵🎶. PEACE🙏🏻
a voice coach remarked that angelina has figured out how to take a breath without pausing that she somehow dives right back into next note. i love ur reactions and analysis. you are such a beautiful and interesting person. angelina just dropped " suspicious minds " only angelina can look like elvis and priscilla
at the same time...a piano arrangement art and antique gallery. not even close to original ...this is soooo emotional...angelina arrived in norway a couple days ago and revisited whitney's i have nothing. she not only sounded stunning she looked stunning...
Her Grandmother must have the best collection of original jazz records on the planet! 😳🤣😎🙏
One of my favorite reaction vids. Well done!!
Best analysis video ever!
So very glad you are back reacting to AJ as your comments especially on those vocal subtleties from her are so educational to a layman like me. Learned aplenty from every of your reaction and always eagerly waiting for more,
She has just released (to me) a very sensational piece covering Elvis's Suspicious Mind and hope you can react to this, please. Many thanks again.
Elizabeth, thank you very much for another great analysis for Angelina Jordan. Angelina is easily the most accomplished child vocalist of all time. More importantly, she has a special soul, filled with empathy and says she wants to spread a message of peace and love through her music. We are blessed she was born into a loving and caring family, who signed her with Republic Records at age 14 but requested Angelina be allowed as normal a childhood as possible.
Now at age 16, she will be performing 3 concerts in Norway on July 1, 7 and 10 and she has promised a album with new original songs to be released sometime this year. One thing that has baffled me Elizabeth, is why your good friend, and fellow vocal coach, Julia Nilon has only featured Angelina once on her channel. Julia told us that her specialty is the development of the vocal chords on children ages 7 to 12. I think it would be great fun to have the two of you together, reacting to another early performance by Angelina, such as Every Time We Say Goodbye, when Angelina was 10 years old.
One of my very favorite Angelina performance at any age. I just love your enthusiastic approach. We can all see how much you adore this girl as all her fans do. Your face is just full of delight with a little tongue action. You're almost as adorable as Angelina. You are my absolute favorite reactor. And I'm talking 100s. I absolutely love your analysis. As just an uninformed music lover you explain so even I can understand it. And dear! You just rewind as often as you like. I loved hearing how you broke it down. Here is my modified list minus the ones you've done. I love this girl and I love your reactions.
Please do this reaction to one of her BEST at 8 yrs old. ♥👣
I looked and did not see one of her best. IMO. My Favorite at 8 yrs old,

My Favorite at this age. Absolutely beautiful. It sounds so much like the way Dinah Washington sang it that it's not easy to tell them apart. This Mashup with Dinah will convince you of this ruclips.net/video/BM87RyQQWcQ/видео.html Absolutely astounding. ♥👣 Do them all together or a couple of them if you can. ♥👣
My favorite song of all time. ♥👣
This is to me the most beautiful rendition of this song and to me THE most beautiful performance I have ever witnessed.
“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 ♥👣
Never have I seen Angelina go so deeply into this world as she does here. She is just immediately in it and I from the first note am there with her!
If you could only listen to one Artist for the rest of your life who would it be?
That would be Angelina for me. No Doubt about it! ♥
If you only had one song. This would be it! ♥👣
My list. Only the Best.
Her first song was Whitney Houston 'I Will Always Love You'? at 18 months. Angelina is the Grand Master of Jazz! She could teach a Master Class at 8 years old.

Thank you so much for returning too Angelina. Fly me to the moon is something she sang many times including for Quincy Jones 84th Birthday at age 12 a stunning performance. There is a studio version around age 9 with a music video that is nicer than the view. If you really want to go to the start, watch (even if you do not react on YT) her 4 live NGT Norways got talent performances, they are short and stunning (Ages 7 to 8). Gloomy Sunday, I'm a fool to want you (acapella), Bang Bang, and Summertime. Of course she has plenty of current material to respond to as well. Best.
anthony 85th birthday.
As you watch more Angelina, you’ll see that on jazzy songs like this that she has sung multiple times at different ages, she sings it differently each time. We get true improvisational jazz singing even when she’s this young-or even younger if you watch her earliest version of Summertime (also at 8 years old) on Norway’s Got Talent. Incredible timing, sometimes slightly behind the beat, but always in absolute control.
One of my favorites is Angelina, live, with a great jazz band behind her, giving us her interpretation of Cry Me a River. I’m old enough to remember the amazing version by Julie London. Like other classics (California Dreamin, Bohemian Rhapsody, Goodbye, Yellow Brick Road…), I didn’t think the originals could or should be touched until I heard how beautifully and respectfully Angelina interprets them.
Sinatra himself once said he never sings a song twice the same time. The fact they can do that without the song sounding that different or worse, sounding horrible, is amazing.
I'm an older trumpet player who is looking forward to your reaction/explanation of the vocals in this tune. I know that in watching you the past few months, your knowledge and observations are just spot on... the breathing descriptions, the projection explanations, breath support and dynamics and even physical stance are identical to how it should be done playing a brass instrument! You've helped my playing by reminding me what I should be doing! Maybe you should also teach horns, huh? Hehheh!
I loved this. As a fan I didn't bother watching her music video for this one she did at 9, thinking I had already seen this. But as a fan you absolutely have to check that out for yourself, reaction or not. As cool as her 'I Put a Spell on You' cover from that age. When I finally watched it I was a bit upset it isn't one of her go too's for fans to suggest. It's super cool phrasing much like this, but different and just better. As complete and polished, fun and her own, as 'I put a spell on you' as well.
Her vocal development has all been recorded for us to see. Angelina is special 😎
I love how you capture and respond to all the many nuances that Angelina brings to her singing--we'd never fully appreciate what she's doing if you didn't point out the techniques she's using. What's so remarkably is how both her technique and her emotive powers are equally developed
This little girl began selecting music to listen to on a tablet while she was still learning to talk. At 2 years old she walked around with a tablet listening to jazz. Safe to say jazz is one of her (several) native languages. You can see her close her eyes and enter into the music track playing in her head and just replicate it at an extraordinary level of fidelity .. of course with whatever color she choses to add from her extensive repertoire of classic techniques. All very deliberate and reproducible.
Love your analyses, thanks.
She arranged her songs even at that young age so I believe she was very aware every step of the way. She is a genius.
I’ve been watching Angelina Jordan since she’s one and a half years old singing jazz. I follow her all these years she’s 17 now and she’s gonna be a superstar. There’s nothing to stop I washed her from the time she was one and a half that’s why she’s 17 and she is in Mackinac. She’s 6 foot tall now invoices rode with her, she is amazing. She got invited to go sang at the Pfizer soccer award show at her and read one. Did you do all the other it was mine blowing oh by the way she sat. There was a guesstimate 350, million paper saw this, and she stepped on the stage she was still barefooted.
The pull to the side of the mouth was to “get” the Sinatra sound.
One of the reasons she looks so comfortable is that she has been performing/recording for a quarter of her life and probably all of the part that she can remember.
At this point she has already won
The Norwegian version of americas got talent at age seven,
There is also a video of her recording
I who have nothing at age 6. Its her first time on a recording studio and she kills it.
At least one person has posted that her mother tried to get her on americas got talent when she was five but they refused to audition her because she was to young.
If this is true little angie may have been belting at age 4 or 5…
Well, this seam is well and truly mined out.
I just discovered her from this and I guess she's 16 now and just released Suspicious Minds! She is hands down the best thing my ears have ever heard!
I love it how you are so happy when listening to her and kept starting, stopping, explaining things, go back to start, start again etc. Very interesting how you explain it all, but I have said that before :-)
She is always very relaxed and happy on stage. In an interview she said that she gets energy from the audience and that she enters a happy place when she performs. She has listened a lot to the classics and has apparently a great instinct how to reproduce those sounds at will. I don’t know if you have seen her sing Bang Bang at Norway got Talent: she sings it with very little vibrato so even then she could turn it on and off. Her singing to the side might have had something to do with her changing her teeth?
She has grown a lot over the years: she must be practicing very hard as well. She sang the same song for Quincy Jones’ 85th birthday party and in it you can hear a lot of growth already. Very recently she covered Elvis’ cover of Mark James’ Suspicious Minds and I think you will be wow-ed by that.
Thanks!
❤
