This is Angelina Jordan the most extraordinary storyteller in my lifetime. Unchained Melody Nobel Peace Prize Dec. 2023 Unchained Melody (AJ, at the age of 17 performed at the Nobel Peace Prize Ceremony December 2023 in Oslo, Norway) I watched as Angelina Jordan stepped onto the stage, her presence commanding attention. The room hushed, anticipation hanging in the air like a delicate thread. She stood there, a young girl with an old soul, ready to weave magic with her voice. As the first notes of "Unchained Melody" filled the room, time seemed to slow. Angelina's voice wrapped around each word, infusing them with a depth that transcended mere lyrics. It was as though the song had been written for her, and her alone. The audience held its breath as she sang. Her voice soared, reaching heights that touched the heavens. The pain and longing in her eyes mirrored the emotions in the song-the heartache, the yearning. It was more than a performance; it was a revelation. The chorus came, and Angelina's voice swelled, filling every corner of the room. " Oh, my love, my darling I've hungered, hungered for your touch," she sang, and suddenly, we all felt the real meaning of the words. The magic in her performance was like nothing we had ever experienced in our lives. The lyrics came alive and had meaning as they flowed through us. In that moment, Angelina Jordan became a vessel for something greater-an embodiment of love itself. Her voice carried us beyond our own pain and loneliness. We felt connected-to her, to each other, to something intangible yet profound. As she held that final note, time snapped back into place. The applause erupted-a thunderous acknowledgment of what we had just witnessed. But it wasn't just applause; it was gratitude-for allowing us to glimpse love and longing through Angelina's eyes. And so, we stood there, hearts full, tears in our eyes. Angelina Jordan had given us something rare-a reminder that love exists even in our brokenness. And for those few minutes, we believed it with every fiber of our being.
The best rendition of this song I have ever heard, stunningly beautiful, especially when you know the full story behind the song and the reason Angelina chose to sing this as a tribute to Narges Mohammadi, the recipient of the Peace Prize.
The two orchestra's sounded very well together, didn't they? The orchestra which was seated (except for the one gentleman in the back making those booming sounds) was marvelous and the other orchestra wrapped up in the body of a single individual was magnificent as well. Angelina is wonderful singing next to a guitar player, or a piano player, or a small band, or a full orchestra or even in a parking garage by herself getting ready to go somewhere. Listening to her is so mesmerizing it is impossible to catch everything she is doing with her instrument, a voice for the ages, and each time you listen to the same song you can pick up something you missed the time before. She is always so comfortable, so confident, because she is singing 'for us', not only to us. When she looks at the camera she looks right through it straight into our hearts. Many artists seek the same results but unless their feelings are genuine the audience doesn't feel it. The aura of love surrounding Angelina even when she is just walking into a room is so captivating many people begin to tear up just at the sight of her. And that soulfulness in her voice latches onto our hearts and she takes us, willingly, into her world when she begins to sing. Magic? To Angelina it's just being natural.
Yo! Another great reaction to this stunning performance from the one and only Barefoot Princess. Please keep them coming. Her musical catalogue is a treasure chest of the finest jewels!!
Michael, Angelina was singing to the twin children of Narges Mohammadi, this years Nobel Peace Prize recipient in prisoned in Iran for fighting for women’s rights who were seated front row. “I’ll be coming home, wait for me”. Consider also, Angelina is quarter Iranian..I think then we can understand where her emotion comes from 🙏
Great reaction to the amazingly talented Angelina, she really knows how to emote in a song. Another wonderful version of this song you should definitely react to is by 20 year old Lucy Thomas from the UK. Her video was released only a couple of weeks ago and it is a completely different musical style to this one.
Sir, in a video shown on YT she arranged it with the conductor and another gentleman responsible for this event. As this was in Norway, the musicians knew who they were talking with, she still is lovingly called " THE NATIONAL TREASURE OF NORWAY". You sir be safe and healthy. sincerely, Elmar from Germany
Yo From Australia 🦘🇦🇺nice to see you a reactor becoming an Angel even though you may be a covert Angel it’s good I to have followed her since gloomy Sunday I like many Angels feel like a proud Uncle having seen her grow up on RUclips enjoy as I do and I dig your vibe
FYI one of Angelina’s songs will appear in the upcoming Netflix move A Family Affair that premieres June 28. It stars Nicole Kidman, Zac Efron and Kathy Bates. Angelina’s announcement about it on IG has Love Don’t Let Me Go playing in the background so that may be the song.
Michael, Angelina chose to keep the vocal arrangement subdued because she is paying respect to the Iranian Nobel Piece Prize recipient’s plight. The Nobel Prize recipient’s two teenaged children are in the audience. Performing at this event is the culmination of a life long dream Angelia had since she was vey young.
It must have been heart wrenching for the two adult children of the woman in the Iranian prison hearing this song performed in honour of their dear mother. Young Miss Jordan offers this song with class, tenderness and the greatest of humility.
Bobby Hadfield, of The Righteous Brothers, is considered to have performed 'The Gold Standard' for this song and deservedly so. But not even Bobby's rendition brings forth the emotion laden penetration Angelina provides here. She has mastered all the elements of musicality that her mentor Billie Holiday invented as the most improvisational Jazz singer of all time that you hear here.
YO! Great reaction, Michael. And the answer to your question is that YES, she improves even further over the next 7 months (this recording is 7 months old now). If you go to her Vegas shows, the difference is 3 months 18 days. I AM tempted to ask you to react to her VERY most recent one, called "Bad Valentine", which she wrote together with Toby Gad, the man who wrote "All Of Me" by John Legend, "If I Were A Boy" made famous by Beyoncé, "Big Girls Don't Cry" by Fergie and "Skyscraper" by Demi Lovato, just to name a few. The two have also made a recording of "If I Were A Boy" which you should check out some time. But "Bad Valentine" is an original, and in it she shows you the range that she REALLY has if she wants to or needs to. Crazy good. The official recording of it will come in September I believe, but there is an extremely good live performance of it from May 16th, performed on an intimate stage in front of a few select people. On the same stage that Adele was discovered as well 🙂 You will find the recording on the channel of James Thiel. After having heard the live performance, I guess you'd be hard pressed to think that she can sound ANY better 😉 Much love from Norway ♥♥♥♥♥
The Nobel recipient is an Iranian woman who had already been imprisoned for more than a decade. Angelina's grandmother is Iranian as well, and the children of the woman imprisoned are sitting directly in front of Angelina. This is her second Nobel performance, she previously performed for Malala.
How many of today’s stars have all the qualities that Angelina has and can do everything she can do? Her amazing low register, her head voice, belting, vocal fry, her breathy voice, her vibrato, her emotion, her storytelling, her seamless transitions between her different techniques. And she has been able to do a lot of this since she was very young. It just keeps getting better and more refined There are a lot of very good and successful singers out there who can do a lot of this stuff, but how many can do all of this and to the level of Angelina? The unfortunate thing is a lot of music listeners and in particular younger listeners don’t pick up on this or it’s not as important to them as the song itself. What matters is the beat and a song that resonates with them. I think Angelina’s original music can resonate with an expanding audience who will eventually pick up on what an amazing vocalist she really is. That could only happen if she is out there and new potential fans hear her and see her. Will she be a big star? We all feel that she certainly has the talent to be one of the biggest ever but there are so many factors that lead to that if that’s what she wants. Strategic promotion is a big key,
The metamorphosis of AJ Angelina Jordan's evolution from a child prodigy to a full-grown artist is a testament to her enduring talent and the natural progression of life. It's not uncommon for fans to feel nostalgic about artists they've followed since childhood, but growth and change are intrinsic to the human experience. As Angelina transitions into adulthood, her style and presentation may change, but what remains constant is her unique voice that continues to captivate audiences worldwide. Her journey reflects the transformation every artist undergoes, adapting and maturing both personally and professionally. This metamorphosis often brings a deeper, more resonant voice and a presence that resonates with both the innocence of youth and the wisdom of experience. Angelina's ability to maintain her signature sound while enhancing it with the strength of adulthood is what makes her a true phenomenon in the music industry. PS. If anyone questions her abilities as an adult, all one has to do is experience her performance in Dec. of 2023 at the Nobel Peace Prize on Oslo, Norway when she performed the most exquisite performance in my lifetime of Unchained Melody with the KORK Orchestra, no one on earth could have performed it better.
Thank you Michael she has different performances of this song depending on the occasion , she did work with them on the arrangement, she is so beautiful inside and out, she doesn't showcase herself she is a true artist it is the feeling ,the meaning , the story all of which are her superpowers so in being so humble , sincere and loving she shows us Angelina and she is absolutely adored by her angels' adopted as our own in our hearts she has our complete loyalty, we walk every step with her, support her in every way we can and love her like a daughter ,granddaughter of friend of such integrity we gladly give her our hearts because that is what she gives to the world not every one gets her yet and some may never but she is something very special,💜💜💜👣💜💜💜
I love this version the arrangement, and it plays beautifully to the story of who she is giving tribute to but there’s nothing like Angelina and orchestra. I can’t wait for her to do something with a chorus. I think she could do something marvelous like with hallelujah the story behind your outfit, and her headband is in a longer video, butI love this version. It is just so pleasant to hear and like I say it has been a while since Angelina had done something with an orchestra in. She sounds good with the orchestra. Thank you for your comments.
James Thiel's edits of the Vegas show are really well put together. Solid audio and video quality considering the only footage available is from fans. Some edits are nothing short of amazing. And if you really want "the present", Thiel also has very high quality recording (as I understand it, it is an official recording he has permission to share) of "Bad Valentine", an original she made with Toby Gad. And then her channel has two versions of "If I Were a Boy", the church performance being the most interesting.
Great suggestions! He definitely should go with James Thiel's videos of the Vegas show. and Bad Valentine. And needs to check out "If I were a Boy" as well.
Thank you for this. Wonderful reaction to this absolut masterpiece in music. 👣Angelina for sure had at least her say in this arrangement, and KORK for sure did back her up masterfully at this very special occation. The imprisoned nobel peace prize laureate, Narges Mohammadi, iranien womens rights activist, was of course absent from this ceremony. Angelina met with, and performed before her two 17 years old twins, as they where there to recive the prize on their mothers behalf. They had not even met with their mother for almost a decade, and not even knowing when or even if they would meet with her. So this song of hearbreaking longing to meet with family and dear once was done so beautifully and perfect as the emotional song it was originally ment to be. Angelina for sure was the rightfully chosen one to perform it as well. Angelina, through her iranian born grandmother, Mery Zamani, had no trouble to join in on this serious and hurtful, and still honorable moment in time last desember.👣 🤗 As you get to Angelina`s Vegas shows, all awalable videos are fan made. James Thiel and Chris Walker ("BigAngieFan" channel) has both put great work into making great quality videos from the event: And as they cover all the performances, we recomand you to use their videos. My suggestions will be "One Moment In Time", "Hero", Angelina`s new original "Prinsess Of Ruins". Her new version of "Bang Bang" is another wonderful AND surpricing video, edited by James Thiel. You could easely do the whole consert, but I think these might be great for a start🤩
Yo! Excellent reaction Michael. She is just so unbelievable . Her tone in her voice is unmatched by anyone. I am so proud of her. You are in for a treat the closer you get to the present. She did two songs with Toby Gad (If I were a Boy and Bad Valentine) that are magnificent! Can’t wait for you to hear them. “If I were a boy” has two versions hers and Toby’s. Both are excellent.
Just beautiful says it all, as it was exactly that, her best performance and vocals ever...though I'm sure, soon to be eclipsed later this year. Now you can check out If "I was a Boy", and an original, "Bad Valentine", while never forgetting how amazing this lovely lady was with her music and soul growing up.
Michael, please excuse me for quoting from another reactor, this section from Andy Schnell, that relates the honor that Angelina had to perform at this Nobel Peace Prize Presentation last December in Oslo. It best sums up the importance of this performance and this song in particular, of all the reactions to this occasion that I have observed. I think most reactors do not have much of a handle on this and treat it as another Angelina song, but this is most special. Angelina is the ultimate storyteller in music. This is from Arab Man Reacts, Boudy. @andyschnell58 6 months ago (edited) Boudy, thanks for your wonderful reaction to this beautiful, touching, respectful performance by Angelina Jordan. Boudy, I greatly respect your commentary about the choices Angelina made for this performance. As always, it is about the song and the occasion, for Angelina. I thought "Unchained Melody" was an odd choice for this event, but have since learned the history of the song. More on that later. Certainly, Angelina was thrilled to be performing back in her home country of Norway, where she is a national treasure, but this performance goes way beyond that honor. She first performed at the Save the Children event at the 2014 Peace Prize event, when she was 8 years old. Narges Mohammadi was this years' recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize. Narges, is currently on a hunger strike while imprisoned in Iran, for being an activist for women's rights. Her two children spoke on her behalf at this event. Most of the performers were Iranian. We know Angelina's grandmother, Mery Zamani, grew up in Iran and was a prodigy for painting and poetry. We can imagine the conversations Mery had with Angelina about Narges. This performance had to be extremely meaningful to Angelina and her family. I hope all the angels will spread the story of Narges and her mission, with the hope for change. In 1954, Alex North was contracted to compose the score for the prison film Unchained (released in 1955). North had a melody he had written in the 1930s and composed and recorded the score when he was asked to write a song based upon the movie's theme. North asked Hy Zaret to write the lyrics. After first refusing, Zaret and North together wrote, "Unchained Melody. Zaret refused the producer's request to include the word "unchained" in his lyrics. The song eventually became known as the "Unchained Melody" even though the song does not actually include the word "unchained". Instead, Zaret chose to focus on someone who pines for a lover he has not seen in a "long, lonely time". The film centered on a man who contemplates either escaping from prison to live life on the run, or completing his sentence and returning to his wife and family. So indeed this song fits along with Narges being in prison and her two children, and the rest of the people who embrace freedom, calling for her release. To continue where Andy left off, It has now been 10 years since Narges has seen her twin 18-year-old children or her husband. The twins spoke immediately before Angelina sang. The KORK Orchestra, is considered one of the ten best in the world.
Synergy is the combined efforts of individuals working together to produce a joint effect that is greater than the sum of the parts acting alone. The collaboration between Angelina Jordan and the KORK Orchestra at the Noble Peace Prize Ceremony 2024 was a remarkable display of musical excellence, and synergy. The young singer's soulful voice and expressive interpretation of the song, Unchained Melody, captivated the audience and complemented the orchestra's rich and nuanced sound. The performance was a fitting tribute to the peace laureates and a celebration of harmony and diversity
Yo Michael, ignoring the comment below, I found this version wonderful, especially when the circumstance of the Nobel Peace Price is considered. This was never a look at me moment, it was all about empathy for the plight of the Iranian woman who was the recipient of the peace prize. As for your next song why not try her very latest original "Bad Valentine" that she has co-written with Toby Gad (famous writer of some very very big songs). It was performed at a small venue recently and the video is available on James Thiels channel. He has the only approved (by Toby) video of this performance. Warning, be prepared. Great reaction btw.
Remembering all her contest performances over the years, kind of makes me want to give every contestant the same instrument & mic while competing. No autotune or effects. Yo, I’ve enjoyed the Jordon Journey with you. 💜
Mike, All the Vegas vids. Are the best. Angelina has Angels with mad skills. They used several Audience videos and mastered the best you will ever sees. But her Latest ( now) is Bad Valentine. And If I was a boy. .. They are game changers. Please don’t wear socks when to get into those. Keep your feet off the ground too. 😊😂
Brudda, I have said she's got that Wall of Sound ❤ wait till you listen to her EP (Old Enough) you really hear it. Thanks Brudda for following our Barefoot Princess. I caught your first reaction to her. You da man que Viva la princesa descalsa ❤❤
Did she sing it the best? I was setting 3 rows behind Bobby Hatfield's Mother the first time he performed this song (Taping of the Andy Williams show in 1965). His Mother had never heard him perform live before and he was very nervous at first! For 50 years I did not think anyone would ever out do him on this song. Then in 2015 I saw and heard 9 year old Angelina sing a short version of the song on TV! I said then that one day she would do it better than Bobby! Last September I was at her show in Portsmouth NH when she did a very slowed down version. I knew from the end of the first line that she was about to do it better than anyone else ever had! Knowing in my mind and heart that she was doing my all time favorite song better than it had ever been performed, this 81 year old man cried all the way thru the performance! Then 3 months later she did this performance. and I still cannot decide which is better! I guess they are tied for the best, but she is the one who has done it the best!!!
@@samsabruskongen Everyone is entitled to their opinion! But one question! Have you been in the audience and heard both artists perform the song live? Believe me, hearing any artist live with no audio production and hearing the same performance after enhancement is often the difference between night and day! I have heard both artist before and after production of this song and I stand by my comment!
Yo.There were some great bts videos of Angelina working with the music director of KORK and a pianist on how they wanted to perform this and then dress rehearsal. At the end she comes over to her mother and asks "Did you like the ending?" Yes I liked the ending, the echo of that last note washing over the goose bumps and my tears. A playlist of some great videos of the Vegas show concerts is: ruclips.net/p/PLlNOkArlAUPgTkrS2eNqvLO3owC-kmHz7&si=wcBo2jq7w59fgGz7 There is such a diversity of fantastic performances, but "Mercy" will introduce you the next octave of Angelina's range with some whistle tone runs. She did some great renditions of some of her original songs. She is a brilliant songwriter as well. She has teamed with the great songwriter Toby Gad and the are coming out with some new songs this fall.❤
Yo Use James Thiel (as others have said for good quality) Vegas - Princess of Ruins/Diamonds are forever/Bang Bang/Hero Then of course, Bad Valentine (top 5 AJ for me)
She's singing at the edge of her voice to make it most emotional for the winner 🏆 f the Nobel peace prize, the iranian women in the jail of Iran ☮️😞 fighting for the women rights 🙏

Great Job Michael. Excellent breakdown and reaction. Angelina is is an outstanding singer and always does a excellent job and here is no exception. The best version of this I've heard yet is done Lucy Thomas. You should check it out. Lucy and Angelina are two of the best young singers in years.....Yo!
Great reaction Michael. If you want something recent then please don't forget here latest song If I Were A boy (Pano Diaries) wth Toby Gad. OMI her best yet.
You definitely want to go straight to James Thiels page as he has redone all of her Vegas songs in the highest Quality. Love your show as your expertise in music is so refreshing. Thankyou ❤️
When you're ready to pick and choose from her massive catalog, be sure to check out "How Great Thou Art". She sings it in the same key as Elvis. The best example of her lowest register.
YO so glad to see your Angelina journey continuing. Mike on another note, excuse the pun.. the world has found their next superstar.. her name is Sydnie Christmas and she won Britains Got Talent this year. Her final performance of Somewhere Over the Rainbow will blow your socks off, in fact any of her performances will. I believe she hits an F#5 in Somewhere over the rainbow but it’s her tone/timbre that gives me goosebumps. Like Angelina, she takes a classic and completely puts her own spin on it.
You mean as talented as Angelina? Wait....who? Or is it just the way she puts her spin on classics? Because another Angelina is not easy to come by, she's that one in a billion in my opinion. Sooo complete as an artist at just 18 years old. Hard to improve from this except more experience in life and more emotion in her delivery.

Yo! any Vegas video from James Thiel will be fantastic, but if you want to be bang up to date, and be blown away, try James Thiels video of Bad Valentine, brand new from Angelina and rather special!
What kind of chops does it take to do this live-on the Nobel stage. Angelina has always been humble, but she knows and has confidence in what she can do. Incredible range, incredible emotion. The Vegas performances are not great quality unfortunately. My suggestion for today’s Angelina is a very, very recent live performance. Check out Bad Valentine and watch angelic Angelina turn to the dark side and break bad.
Yo From Australia 🦘🇦🇺nice to see you a reactor becoming an Angel even though you may be a covert Angel it’s good I to have followed her since gloomy Sunday I like many Angels feel like a proud Uncle having seen her grow up on RUclips enjoy as I do and I dig your vibe Yo from Australia 🦘🇦🇺
Angelina and KORK(Norwegian Radio Orchestra) just did a magnificent rendition of Unchained Melody! The perfect song for Narges Mohammadi Nobel Peace Prize! And let’s not forget Angelina’s Iranian heritage and Oslo is her hometown! Third time with KORK, she did Back to Black and Summertime when she was 10! Has been invited twice to Nobel Peace Prize, previously appeared when she was eight! She has brought grace and elegance back to the stage! Narges is in jail for leading the fight for women’s rights in Iran! At the end Angelina puts her hand over her heart acknowledging Narges children who were on stage and happen to be Angelina’s age and are living in exile in France! Remember that she was codified a National Treasure of Norway by the King and Prime Minister when she was eight years old! Rehearsal and Arrangement: A Master at Work-ruclips.net/video/P_cTGSaBVJo/видео.htmlsi=0uE48FOz9QB15QyI Full Rehearsal Nobel Peace Prize: ruclips.net/video/vTpYygS04Ic/видео.htmlsi=R3tyVAeVbiZXJArw Grandma Mery is so great in providing these BTS snippets! For the Las Vegas concerts I would recommend using videos from Chris Walker’s and James Thiel’s RUclips channels, they have combine video and audio from numerous other fans and made excellent music videos of all the Las Vegas performances! Would highly recommend these two performances-Angelina and Toby Gad Bad Valentine Live Hotel Cafe Jesse and Friends: ruclips.net/video/yTjzhPSVguc/видео.htmlsi=QhuIKdbUMP1y2DUl Toby Gad gave James Thiel permission to post this on RUclips prior to the release of the song! And Music Video If I Were a Boy from Toby’s Piano Diaries: ruclips.net/video/eJr-BfUQ2jE/видео.htmlsi=BVoFz2bayfyxf_Dl There are five different versions of the song three of them are live performances!
James Thiel has the best Las Vegas videos of Angelina on his channel. Highly recommend to go to his channel. Doesn’t matter which one from the concert you react to. They were both amazing shows. James also has her latest collaboration videos with Multi Grammy Award winning songwriter Toby Gad. One of those songs is an original “Bad Valentine”. I believe that duo is going to make her a household name in the very near future.
Yo, Great reaction. Skip the Vegas show and go straight to present with a song her and Toby Gad wrote together, Bad Valentine. It doesn't get any more recent than this.
Angelina posted on her social media a thank you to the orchestra for trusting her with this arrangement. I'm sure you are correct in that this is a collaboration and there is a bts video where they are working it out on a piano.
Angelina and the pianist worked out what she wanted. . She sang and the pianist picked up the melody. She corrected him over and over to get things down. Them the writers went and wrote things out. Then practice and rehearsal came. She knows what she wanted. And with understanding and cooperation. They got it done
Yo, recommend “Mercy” from Vegas show. James Thiel has 12 videos on his channel with very good quality. Chris Walker, Big Angie Fan channel has the remaining 8 videos of equal quality.
For any of the Vegas shows, use videos by James Thiel. My favorites are Hero, when we were young, and her new pending original, Princess of Ruins, which is the story of why she sings barefoot!
For Vegas use James Thiel and BigAngieFan channels. My preference is "When We Were Young" but there are many outstanding moments in that concert. She introduced a new original as well. I would do at least a couple as she is so versatile it is difficult to judge on one song. If you wish to hear her welcome the Angels Joey Farr has her opening song "Diamonds Are Forever" extended version that has the band intro and her welcoming statement. You get to know her a little from this.WWWY--ruclips.net/video/OZGGChzbgqE/видео.html DAF---ruclips.net/video/uKNyMfwFEBc/видео.html New song---ruclips.net/video/jbjzHYJuDjQ/видео.html James has a great mashup of "I Have Nothing" with several of Angelina's performances and Whitney you may want to watch. If You browse these sites you will find many "gems". I enjoy your insight on these reviews. thanks ps: I would not do "Feeling Good", although it is good the beginning of several lines are nearly inaudible as that mic dropped off pretty fast per distance.
This is the last thing that Angelina presented, and it is also original: Esto es lo último que Angelina presentó, y además es original: ruclips.net/video/yTjzhPSVguc/видео.html
To say she is special is a understatement great reaction thank you wild bill angel since 2016 ❤❤❤
What’s the “wild bill” thing about?
Yo good reaction she truly is one of the very best and is getting even better she will be remembered for generations to come
This is Angelina Jordan the most extraordinary storyteller in my lifetime.
Unchained Melody Nobel Peace Prize Dec. 2023
Unchained Melody (AJ, at the age of 17 performed at the Nobel Peace Prize Ceremony December 2023 in Oslo, Norway) I watched as Angelina Jordan stepped onto the stage, her presence commanding attention. The room hushed, anticipation hanging in the air like a delicate thread. She stood there, a young girl with an old soul, ready to weave magic with her voice. As the first notes of "Unchained Melody" filled the room, time seemed to slow. Angelina's voice wrapped around each word, infusing them with a depth that transcended mere lyrics. It was as though the song had been written for her, and her alone. The audience held its breath as she sang. Her voice soared, reaching heights that touched the heavens. The pain and longing in her eyes mirrored the emotions in the song-the heartache, the yearning. It was more than a performance; it was a revelation. The chorus came, and Angelina's voice swelled, filling every corner of the room. " Oh, my love, my darling I've hungered, hungered for your touch," she sang, and suddenly, we all felt the real meaning of the words. The magic in her performance was like nothing we had ever experienced in our lives. The lyrics came alive and had meaning as they flowed through us. In that moment, Angelina Jordan became a vessel for something greater-an embodiment of love itself. Her voice carried us beyond our own pain and loneliness. We felt connected-to her, to each other, to something intangible yet profound. As she held that final note, time snapped back into place. The applause erupted-a thunderous acknowledgment of what we had just witnessed. But it wasn't just applause; it was gratitude-for allowing us to glimpse love and longing through Angelina's eyes. And so, we stood there, hearts full, tears in our eyes. Angelina Jordan had given us something rare-a reminder that love exists even in our brokenness. And for those few minutes, we believed it with every fiber of our being.
The best rendition of this song I have ever heard, stunningly beautiful, especially when you know the full story behind the song and the reason Angelina chose to sing this as a tribute to Narges Mohammadi, the recipient of the Peace Prize.
Yo Mike, amazing artist! She knows how to serve the song on a golden platter! Such poise and grace! Love it❤🎉 big hugs to you too❤🎉
🙏 Back at yo!!
The two orchestra's sounded very well together, didn't they? The orchestra which was seated (except for the one gentleman in the back making those booming sounds) was marvelous and the other orchestra wrapped up in the body of a single individual was magnificent as well. Angelina is wonderful singing next to a guitar player, or a piano player, or a small band, or a full orchestra or even in a parking garage by herself getting ready to go somewhere. Listening to her is so mesmerizing it is impossible to catch everything she is doing with her instrument, a voice for the ages, and each time you listen to the same song you can pick up something you missed the time before. She is always so comfortable, so confident, because she is singing 'for us', not only to us. When she looks at the camera she looks right through it straight into our hearts. Many artists seek the same results but unless their feelings are genuine the audience doesn't feel it. The aura of love surrounding Angelina even when she is just walking into a room is so captivating many people begin to tear up just at the sight of her. And that soulfulness in her voice latches onto our hearts and she takes us, willingly, into her world when she begins to sing. Magic? To Angelina it's just being natural.
Avesome performance ❤
Mike, glad to see you doing Angelina again. But there’s so much she has out there to shiver an shake you.
Yo! Another great reaction to this stunning performance from the one and only Barefoot Princess. Please keep them coming. Her musical catalogue is a treasure chest of the finest jewels!!
Michael, Angelina was singing to the twin children of Narges Mohammadi, this years Nobel Peace Prize recipient in prisoned in Iran for fighting for women’s rights who were seated front row. “I’ll be coming home, wait for me”. Consider also, Angelina is quarter Iranian..I think then we can understand where her emotion comes from 🙏
Great reaction to the amazingly talented Angelina, she really knows how to emote in a song. Another wonderful version of this song you should definitely react to is by 20 year old Lucy Thomas from the UK. Her video was released only a couple of weeks ago and it is a completely different musical style to this one.
What is interesting about her vocal fry, is she uses it when speaking. It is natural for her.
I'll comment later, I can't feel my body through the chills!
This was the most beautiful and emotional version I’ve ever heard! Her vibrato is stunning beautiful! 👌🔥💎🔥❤️
Sir, in a video shown on YT she arranged it with the conductor and another gentleman responsible for this event. As this was in Norway, the musicians knew who they were talking with, she still is lovingly called " THE NATIONAL TREASURE OF NORWAY".
You sir be safe and healthy.
sincerely, Elmar from Germany
Yo From Australia 🦘🇦🇺nice to see you a reactor becoming an Angel even though you may be a covert Angel it’s good I to have followed her since gloomy Sunday I like many Angels feel like a proud Uncle having seen her grow up on RUclips enjoy as I do and I dig your vibe
FYI one of Angelina’s songs will appear in the upcoming Netflix move A Family Affair that premieres June 28. It stars Nicole Kidman, Zac Efron and Kathy Bates. Angelina’s announcement about it on IG has Love Don’t Let Me Go playing in the background so that may be the song.
But as you've stated elsewhere .We should not get carried away , will it be just a small snippet or a full song .?
Fly me to the moon according to big Angie fan
@@stevenhambek846 The message read " congrats to Angelina jordan on having HER song in this movie " I took that to be a original .
Michael, Angelina chose to keep the vocal arrangement subdued because she is paying respect to the Iranian Nobel Piece Prize recipient’s plight. The Nobel Prize recipient’s two teenaged children are in the audience.
Performing at this event is the culmination of a life long dream Angelia had since she was vey young.
It must have been heart wrenching for the two adult children of the woman in the Iranian prison hearing this song performed in honour of their dear mother. Young Miss Jordan offers this song with class, tenderness and the greatest of humility.
KORK and Angelina Jordan should do more Colabs. The arrangment here is pure magic.
Her voice is like an instrument in the orchestra...such resonance and sweetness!
Bobby Hadfield, of The Righteous Brothers, is considered to have performed 'The Gold Standard' for this song
and deservedly so. But not even Bobby's rendition brings forth the emotion laden penetration Angelina provides
here. She has mastered all the elements of musicality that her mentor Billie Holiday invented as the most
improvisational Jazz singer of all time that you hear here.
YO! Great reaction, Michael. And the answer to your question is that YES, she improves even further over the next 7 months (this recording is 7 months old now). If you go to her Vegas shows, the difference is 3 months 18 days. I AM tempted to ask you to react to her VERY most recent one, called "Bad Valentine", which she wrote together with Toby Gad, the man who wrote "All Of Me" by John Legend, "If I Were A Boy" made famous by Beyoncé, "Big Girls Don't Cry" by Fergie and "Skyscraper" by Demi Lovato, just to name a few. The two have also made a recording of "If I Were A Boy" which you should check out some time. But "Bad Valentine" is an original, and in it she shows you the range that she REALLY has if she wants to or needs to. Crazy good. The official recording of it will come in September I believe, but there is an extremely good live performance of it from May 16th, performed on an intimate stage in front of a few select people. On the same stage that Adele was discovered as well 🙂 You will find the recording on the channel of James Thiel. After having heard the live performance, I guess you'd be hard pressed to think that she can sound ANY better 😉 Much love from Norway ♥♥♥♥♥
The Nobel recipient is an Iranian woman who had already been imprisoned for more than a decade. Angelina's grandmother is Iranian as well, and the children of the woman imprisoned are sitting directly in front of Angelina.
This is her second Nobel performance, she previously performed for Malala.
How many of today’s stars have all the qualities that Angelina has and can do everything she can do? Her amazing low register, her head voice, belting, vocal fry, her breathy voice, her vibrato, her emotion, her storytelling, her seamless transitions between her different techniques. And she has been able to do a lot of this since she was very young. It just keeps getting better and more refined There are a lot of very good and successful singers out there who can do a lot of this stuff, but how many can do all of this and to the level of Angelina? The unfortunate thing is a lot of music listeners and in particular younger listeners don’t pick up on this or it’s not as important to them as the song itself. What matters is the beat and a song that resonates with them. I think Angelina’s original music can resonate with an expanding audience who will eventually pick up on what an amazing vocalist she really is. That could only happen if she is out there and new potential fans hear her and see her. Will she be a big star? We all feel that she certainly has the talent to be one of the biggest ever but there are so many factors that lead to that if that’s what she wants. Strategic promotion is a big key,
Yo, Angelina thanked the Director for having faith and working with her on the arraingement.
Beautiful and out of this world as usual
❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉Aj🎉😊love you
she did say she thanked the orchestra for trusting her aragngement
Angelina had a well honed stage ready voice at ten..
The metamorphosis of AJ
Angelina Jordan's evolution from a child prodigy to a full-grown artist is a testament to her enduring talent and the natural progression of life. It's not uncommon for fans to feel nostalgic about artists they've followed since childhood, but growth and change are intrinsic to the human experience. As Angelina transitions into adulthood, her style and presentation may change, but what remains constant is her unique voice that continues to captivate audiences worldwide. Her journey reflects the transformation every artist undergoes, adapting and maturing both personally and professionally. This metamorphosis often brings a deeper, more resonant voice and a presence that resonates with both the innocence of youth and the wisdom of experience. Angelina's ability to maintain her signature sound while enhancing it with the strength of adulthood is what makes her a true phenomenon in the music industry.
PS. If anyone questions her abilities as an adult, all one has to do is experience her performance in Dec. of 2023 at the Nobel Peace Prize on Oslo, Norway when she performed the most exquisite performance in my lifetime of Unchained Melody with the KORK Orchestra, no one on earth could have performed it
better.
Thank you Michael she has different performances of this song depending on the occasion , she did work with them on the arrangement, she is so beautiful inside and out, she doesn't showcase herself she is a true artist it is the feeling ,the meaning , the story all of which are her superpowers so in being so humble , sincere and loving she shows us Angelina and she is absolutely adored by her angels' adopted as our own in our hearts she has our complete loyalty, we walk every step with her, support her in every way we can and love her like a daughter ,granddaughter of friend of such integrity we gladly give her our hearts because that is what she gives to the world not every one gets her yet and some may never but she is something very special,💜💜💜👣💜💜💜
Raspy voice, my freind. God reaction. Love from Sweden.
I love this version the arrangement, and it plays beautifully to the story of who she is giving tribute to but there’s nothing like Angelina and orchestra. I can’t wait for her to do something with a chorus. I think she could do something marvelous like with hallelujah the story behind your outfit, and her headband is in a longer video, butI love this version. It is just so pleasant to hear and like I say it has been a while since Angelina had done something with an orchestra in. She sounds good with the orchestra. Thank you for your comments.
One of very few artists who know how to serve the music, thereby the emoting becomes genuine and believable
Yo, thanks for the great reaction to the barefoot princess 👏👏❤️
James Thiel's edits of the Vegas show are really well put together. Solid audio and video quality considering the only footage available is from fans. Some edits are nothing short of amazing. And if you really want "the present", Thiel also has very high quality recording (as I understand it, it is an official recording he has permission to share) of "Bad Valentine", an original she made with Toby Gad. And then her channel has two versions of "If I Were a Boy", the church performance being the most interesting.
Great suggestions! He definitely should go with James Thiel's videos of the Vegas show. and Bad Valentine. And needs to check out "If I were a Boy" as well.
Thank you for this. Wonderful reaction to this absolut masterpiece in music. 👣Angelina for sure had at least her say in this arrangement, and KORK for sure did back her up masterfully at this very special occation. The imprisoned nobel peace prize laureate, Narges Mohammadi, iranien womens rights activist, was of course absent from this ceremony. Angelina met with, and performed before her two 17 years old twins, as they where there to recive the prize on their mothers behalf. They had not even met with their mother for almost a decade, and not even knowing when or even if they would meet with her. So this song of hearbreaking longing to meet with family and dear once was done so beautifully and perfect as the emotional song it was originally ment to be. Angelina for sure was the rightfully chosen one to perform it as well. Angelina, through her iranian born grandmother, Mery Zamani, had no trouble to join in on this serious and hurtful, and still honorable moment in time last desember.👣 🤗
As you get to Angelina`s Vegas shows, all awalable videos are fan made. James Thiel and Chris Walker ("BigAngieFan" channel) has both put great work into making great quality videos from the event: And as they cover all the performances, we recomand you to use their videos.
My suggestions will be "One Moment In Time", "Hero", Angelina`s new original "Prinsess Of Ruins". Her new version of "Bang Bang" is another wonderful AND surpricing video, edited by James Thiel. You could easely do the whole consert, but I think these might be great for a start🤩
AJ is the greatest thing to happen to music in my 77 years of experiencing the best the music industry has to offer.
An outstanding vocal and emotive performance by Angelina🎉🎉🎉
❤❤❤Love Angelina❤❤❤
Everything from the Vegas Concert is of great quality. The Angels did a superb job of whatever was needed to bring out great videos that night.
I’m surprised no one has taken all the videos and edited a version with multiple angles and whatnot.
11 sek. for one letter is, i don't know....i'm speechless!
Yo! Excellent reaction Michael. She is just so unbelievable . Her tone in her voice is unmatched by anyone. I am so proud of her. You are in for a treat the closer you get to the present. She did two songs with Toby Gad (If I were a Boy and Bad Valentine) that are magnificent! Can’t wait for you to hear them. “If I were a boy” has two versions hers and Toby’s. Both are excellent.
Just beautiful says it all, as it was exactly that, her best performance and vocals ever...though I'm sure, soon to be eclipsed later this year. Now you can check out If "I was a Boy", and an original, "Bad Valentine", while never forgetting how amazing this lovely lady was with her music and soul growing up.
Michael, please excuse me for quoting from another reactor, this section from Andy Schnell, that relates the honor that Angelina had to perform at this Nobel Peace Prize Presentation last December in Oslo. It best sums up the importance of this performance and this song in particular, of all the reactions to this occasion that I have observed. I think most reactors do not have much of a handle on this and treat it as another Angelina song, but this is most special. Angelina is the ultimate storyteller in music. This is from Arab Man Reacts, Boudy.

Boudy, thanks for your wonderful reaction to this beautiful, touching, respectful performance by Angelina Jordan. Boudy, I greatly respect your commentary about the choices Angelina made for this performance. As always, it is about the song and the occasion, for Angelina.
I thought "Unchained Melody" was an odd choice for this event, but have since learned the history of the song. More on that later.
Certainly, Angelina was thrilled to be performing back in her home country of Norway, where she is a national treasure, but this performance goes way beyond that honor. She first performed at the Save the Children event at the 2014 Peace Prize event, when she was 8 years old.
Narges Mohammadi was this years' recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize. Narges, is currently on a hunger strike while imprisoned in Iran, for being an activist for women's rights. Her two children spoke on her behalf at this event. Most of the performers were Iranian.
We know Angelina's grandmother, Mery Zamani, grew up in Iran and was a prodigy for painting and poetry. We can imagine the conversations Mery had with Angelina about Narges. This performance had to be extremely meaningful to Angelina and her family. I hope all the angels will spread the story of Narges and her mission, with the hope for change.
In 1954, Alex North was contracted to compose the score for the prison film Unchained (released in 1955). North had a melody he had written in the 1930s and composed and recorded the score when he was asked to write a song based upon the movie's theme. North asked Hy Zaret to write the lyrics. After first refusing, Zaret and North together wrote, "Unchained Melody. Zaret refused the producer's request to include the word "unchained" in his lyrics. The song eventually became known as the "Unchained Melody" even though the song does not actually include the word "unchained". Instead, Zaret chose to focus on someone who pines for a lover he has not seen in a "long, lonely time".
The film centered on a man who contemplates either escaping from prison to live life on the run, or completing his sentence and returning to his wife and family. So indeed this song fits along with Narges being in prison and her two children, and the rest of the people who embrace freedom, calling for her release.
To continue where Andy left off, It has now been 10 years since Narges has seen her twin 18-year-old children or her husband. The twins spoke immediately before Angelina sang. The KORK Orchestra, is considered one of the ten best in the world.
Vocal FRY!
I got there eventually! 😂 🙏 ✌️
The Godess of Song on stage !!!
Synergy is the combined efforts of individuals working together to produce a joint effect that is greater than the sum of the parts acting alone.
The collaboration between Angelina Jordan and the KORK Orchestra at the Noble Peace Prize Ceremony 2024 was a remarkable display of musical excellence, and synergy. The young singer's soulful voice and expressive interpretation of the song, Unchained Melody, captivated the audience and complemented the orchestra's rich and nuanced sound. The performance was a fitting tribute to the peace laureates and a celebration of harmony and diversity
Yo Michael, ignoring the comment below, I found this version wonderful, especially when the circumstance of the Nobel Peace Price is considered. This was never a look at me moment, it was all about empathy for the plight of the Iranian woman who was the recipient of the peace prize. As for your next song why not try her very latest original "Bad Valentine" that she has co-written with Toby Gad (famous writer of some very very big songs). It was performed at a small venue recently and the video is available on James Thiels channel. He has the only approved (by Toby) video of this performance. Warning, be prepared. Great reaction btw.
Remembering all her contest performances over the years, kind of makes me want to give every contestant the same instrument & mic while competing. No autotune or effects.
Yo, I’ve enjoyed the Jordon Journey with you. 💜
Yes! Totally.
Thanks for joining on the journey. ✌️ ❤️
yo love that ending
Yo ✌️
She did this in Portsmouth New Hampshire at a Concert there in 2022. Just a bit different.
Catch her at 12, 2018 doing ( It’s a Man’s world)… Or her personal ( Shield) live on stage in Australia.
Take the "10 Years in the making" Angelina Jordan 👍👍
❤❤❤
Mike, All the Vegas vids. Are the best. Angelina has Angels with mad skills. They used several Audience videos and mastered the best you will ever sees. But her Latest ( now) is Bad Valentine. And If I was a boy. .. They are game changers. Please don’t wear socks when to get into those. Keep your feet off the ground too. 😊😂
There’s a video of what you call ( the preparation) when she and the Orchestra were practicing. Putting this together. The discussions and stuff
Brudda, I have said she's got that Wall of Sound ❤ wait till you listen to her EP (Old Enough) you really hear it. Thanks Brudda for following our Barefoot Princess. I caught your first reaction to her. You da man que Viva la princesa descalsa ❤❤
Not only does AJ use a lot of vocal fry, but she can sing it with vibrato!
Did she sing it the best? I was setting 3 rows behind Bobby Hatfield's Mother the first time he performed this song (Taping of the Andy Williams show in 1965). His Mother had never heard him perform live before and he was very nervous at first! For 50 years I did not think anyone would ever out do him on this song. Then in 2015 I saw and heard 9 year old Angelina sing a short version of the song on TV! I said then that one day she would do it better than Bobby! Last September I was at her show in Portsmouth NH when she did a very slowed down version. I knew from the end of the first line that she was about to do it better than anyone else ever had! Knowing in my mind and heart that she was doing my all time favorite song better than it had ever been performed, this 81 year old man cried all the way thru the performance! Then 3 months later she did this performance. and I still cannot decide which is better! I guess they are tied for the best, but she is the one who has done it the best!!!
I envy you for seeing her live performance. 😇
No one does it better than Bobby, not even Angelina.
@@samsabruskongen Everyone is entitled to their opinion! But one question! Have you been in the audience and heard both artists perform the song live? Believe me, hearing any artist live with no audio production and hearing the same performance after enhancement is often the difference between night and day! I have heard both artist before and after production of this song and I stand by my comment!
Yo.There were some great bts videos of Angelina working with the music director of KORK and a pianist on how they wanted to perform this and then dress rehearsal. At the end she comes over to her mother and asks "Did you like the ending?" Yes I liked the ending, the echo of that last note washing over the goose bumps and my tears.
A playlist of some great videos of the Vegas show concerts is:
ruclips.net/p/PLlNOkArlAUPgTkrS2eNqvLO3owC-kmHz7&si=wcBo2jq7w59fgGz7
There is such a diversity of fantastic performances, but "Mercy" will introduce you the next octave of Angelina's range with some whistle tone runs. She did some great renditions of some of her original songs. She is a brilliant songwriter as well. She has teamed with the great songwriter Toby Gad and the are coming out with some new songs this fall.❤
What å perfect voice ❤
Great reaction 😉♥👣 Fire! 🔥🔥🔥♥👣
Just a month before her 18th birthday.
There is a video on RUclips showing a bit of the back stage rehearsal for this
Yo, I love your insights. Thanks
Yo 👍👍👍 from France 😉
Yo Gilles. ✌️
Yo
Use James Thiel (as others have said for good quality)
Vegas - Princess of Ruins/Diamonds are forever/Bang Bang/Hero
Then of course, Bad Valentine (top 5 AJ for me)
Great videos from the "BigAngieFan" - channel as well. Together they cover every song from Vegas.
"When we where young" is a good one too at The Vegas show. Then of course, "Bad Valentine" in L.A from James Thiel Channel 👍👍👍
She's singing at the edge of her voice to make it most emotional for the winner 🏆 f the Nobel peace prize, the iranian women in the jail of Iran ☮️😞 fighting for the women rights 🙏
On this channel you find the best sound quality and editing of Angelina's presentations in Las Vegas 2024:

Great Job Michael. Excellent breakdown and reaction. Angelina is is an outstanding singer and always does a excellent job and here is no exception. The best version of this I've heard yet is done Lucy Thomas. You should check it out. Lucy and Angelina are two of the best young singers in years.....Yo!
Great reaction Michael. If you want something recent then please don't forget here latest song If I Were A boy (Pano Diaries) wth Toby Gad. OMI her best yet.
Vegas - "When We Were Young" or "Princess of Ruins".
You definitely want to go straight to James Thiels page as he has redone all of her Vegas songs in the highest Quality. Love your show as your expertise in music is so refreshing. Thankyou ❤️
Yo 💙
When you're ready to pick and choose from her massive catalog, be sure to check out "How Great Thou Art". She sings it in the same key as Elvis. The best example of her lowest register.
YO so glad to see your Angelina journey continuing.
Mike on another note, excuse the pun.. the world has found their next superstar.. her name is Sydnie Christmas and she won Britains Got Talent this year. Her final performance of Somewhere Over the Rainbow will blow your socks off, in fact any of her performances will. I believe she hits an F#5 in Somewhere over the rainbow but it’s her tone/timbre that gives me goosebumps. Like Angelina, she takes a classic and completely puts her own spin on it.
I’ll check it out but there are often copyright issues with those shows…..thanks for the tip!!
You mean as talented as Angelina? Wait....who? Or is it just the way she puts her spin on classics? Because another Angelina is not easy to come by, she's that one in a billion in my opinion. Sooo complete as an artist at just 18 years old. Hard to improve from this except more experience in life and more emotion in her delivery.
@@michaelgoyettemusic yes but there are loads of reactors reacting to her including all the vocal coaches
@@TroyArchAngel read my last sentence again 😉
@@Dr_KAP Yeah only for that reason, wasn't sure though 😅She is really good, I just watched her audition.
What you have to check out is her new song bad Valentine.✌✌
Yo ❤❤

Yo! any Vegas video from James Thiel will be fantastic, but if you want to be bang up to date, and be blown away, try James Thiels video of Bad Valentine, brand new from Angelina and rather special!
What kind of chops does it take to do this live-on the Nobel stage. Angelina has always been humble, but she knows and has confidence in what she can do. Incredible range, incredible emotion.
The Vegas performances are not great quality unfortunately. My suggestion for today’s Angelina is a very, very recent live performance. Check out Bad Valentine and watch angelic Angelina turn to the dark side and break bad.
Go to James Theils page for amazing quality in her Vegas show.
Yo From Australia 🦘🇦🇺nice to see you a reactor becoming an Angel even though you may be a covert Angel it’s good I to have followed her since gloomy Sunday I like many Angels feel like a proud Uncle having seen her grow up on RUclips enjoy as I do and I dig your vibe Yo from Australia 🦘🇦🇺
She help by telling the writer things. Also to sing while a pianist played. Accumulating to this.
Only three month between this and Vegas, yo..
Yo ... she's awesome, isn't she!?
Angelina and KORK(Norwegian Radio Orchestra) just did a magnificent rendition of Unchained Melody! The perfect song for Narges Mohammadi Nobel Peace Prize! And let’s not forget Angelina’s Iranian heritage and Oslo is her hometown! Third time with KORK, she did Back to Black and Summertime when she was 10! Has been invited twice to Nobel Peace Prize, previously appeared when she was eight! She has brought grace and elegance back to the stage! Narges is in jail for leading the fight for women’s rights in Iran! At the end Angelina puts her hand over her heart acknowledging Narges children who were on stage and happen to be Angelina’s age and are living in exile in France! Remember that she was codified a National Treasure of Norway by the King and Prime Minister when she was eight years old!

For the Las Vegas concerts I would recommend using videos from Chris Walker’s and James Thiel’s RUclips channels, they have combine video and audio from numerous other fans and made excellent music videos of all the Las Vegas performances!
Would highly recommend these two performances-Angelina and Toby Gad Bad Valentine Live Hotel Cafe Jesse and Friends: ruclips.net/video/yTjzhPSVguc/видео.htmlsi=QhuIKdbUMP1y2DUl
Toby Gad gave James Thiel permission to post this on RUclips prior to the release of the song!

There are five different versions of the song three of them are live performances!
Yo!
Все виды масла! 😅Точно сказано!!!
James Thiel has the best Las Vegas videos of Angelina on his channel. Highly recommend to go to his channel. Doesn’t matter which one from the concert you react to. They were both amazing shows. James also has her latest collaboration videos with Multi Grammy Award winning songwriter Toby Gad. One of those songs is an original “Bad Valentine”. I believe that duo is going to make her a household name in the very near future.
Yo, Great reaction. Skip the Vegas show and go straight to present with a song her and Toby Gad wrote together, Bad Valentine. It doesn't get any more recent than this.
Yo
Making Baltimore safe again.
At 1:41 there is a caption in the original video : "Arr.: H.Sunde." So the arrangement is probably not by Angelina.alone
Angelina posted on her social media a thank you to the orchestra for trusting her with this arrangement. I'm sure you are correct in that this is a collaboration and there is a bts video where they are working it out on a piano.
Angelina and the pianist worked out what she wanted. . She sang and the pianist picked up the melody. She corrected him over and over to get things down. Them the writers went and wrote things out. Then practice and rehearsal came. She knows what she wanted. And with understanding and cooperation. They got it done
Yo, recommend “Mercy” from Vegas show. James Thiel has 12 videos on his channel with very good quality. Chris Walker, Big Angie Fan channel has the remaining 8 videos of equal quality.
For any of the Vegas shows, use videos by James Thiel. My favorites are Hero, when we were young, and her new pending original, Princess of Ruins, which is the story of why she sings barefoot!
She is good. React to Lucy Thomas doing the same song.
Pay attention to your followers in the Comments. It’s important.
Watch video until the end yo
For Vegas use James Thiel and BigAngieFan channels. My preference is "When We Were Young" but there are many outstanding moments in that concert. She introduced a new original as well. I would do at least a couple as she is so versatile it is difficult to judge on one song. If you wish to hear her welcome the Angels Joey Farr has her opening song "Diamonds Are Forever" extended version that has the band intro and her welcoming statement. You get to know her a little from this.WWWY--ruclips.net/video/OZGGChzbgqE/видео.html

James has a great mashup of "I Have Nothing" with several of Angelina's performances and Whitney you may want to watch. If You browse these sites you will find many "gems". I enjoy your insight on these reviews. thanks
ps: I would not do "Feeling Good", although it is good the beginning of several lines are nearly inaudible as that mic dropped off pretty fast per distance.
Check out Bad Valentine and If I Were a boy with Toby Gad
This is the last thing that Angelina presented, and it is also original:
