    This was the studio version. But during this recording they also did a live version, with those acoustics, in one take (as per usual with her). It's on RUclips.

    She begins acapella with instruments coming in later.

    A star is bright in the darkness of night
    In the garden of time stands Mery Zamani,
    A tree of strength, with roots deep as history's story.
    From its ancient boughs, a blossom did unfold,
    Angelina Jordan, a voice of pure gold.
    With petals of song that float on the air,
    Her music blooms forth, a solace from despair.
    Each note she sings, a leaf in the wind,
    Whispers of peace, and love that she sends.
    Mery Zamani, proud and so grand,
    Nurtured this flower with a gentle hand.
    Now Angelina shines, a star in the night,
    A beacon of hope, a bringer of light.
    So here's to the tree, and its precious bloom,
    May their beauty and grace forever consume.
    The hearts of the world, in harmony's dance,
    Mery Zamani and Angelina, a timeless romance.

    Cheers from Canada Charlie. Great reaction. I see everyone told you about the church acappella version, so no need for me to repeat 😅.
    Toby Gad being a multi Grammy Award winning producer & songwriter was so taken by AJ's talent, that he's been exclusively working with her on multiple songs for her labels debut LP at Republic Records UMG.
    Toby's mate James Thiel; sound engineer by profession, was given permission by Toby to post a sneak peek performance on his YT channel of a new song by Toby & AJ called "Bad Valentine". This song and her vocals will BLOW YOUR MIND 🤯🤯. It as if you've taken both Adele & Amy Winehouse voice's & melded them together, I'm not exaggerating my friend. After I heard it I was convinced that its a certified platinum HIT. Toby & Angelina work so incredibly well together and I believe with his help she's about to become an international superstar when her full album drops.
    Please don't pass this by and react to "Bad Valentine" ASAP. You'll thank me bruv😂. Cheers 🍻

      Not actually. The additional instruments were added into the track. IMO this performance was recorded in the church, but of course NOT in one take. Post-production handled the natural acoustic reverb. The acapella version was of course one take, before the final consolidated version we see here.

    • @TheCharlieSmithChannel
      @TheCharlieSmithChannel  2 месяца назад +4

      @@ClandOp is that opinion or you know these things to be true. Your comment is a bit confusing. I would like to know how you know this because my producers ear tells me this isn't recorded in the church. You wouldn't go through all the effort of canceling the reverb and adding instruments from a live recording just to make it sound like a studio version. You'd just do it in the studio. As I say, you can clearly see the vocals don't quite line up with the video in parts too. It's slight but it's definitely there

    Great reaction Charlie. What can I say, this is a fantastic version of the song, (there is also another fantastic live video version with the wonderful echoes of the church that make her voice even more magical), I would listen endlessly to her wonderful and powerful voice with that incredible low register of her and those wonderful progressions, I admire her fantastic musical sensitivity more and more, it seems impossible, but every song, simple or complex, which she rediscover becomes a new and splendid song. For me she is simply unique and with an incredible melodic perception. I love this composed and passionate performance, it's absolutely healing for the soul but even so crossed by an incredible musical power and structure, I love the soft background accompaniment of the piano and cello gives a wonderful and silky backdrop at her incredible voice. 💛🧡❤

      ​@TheCharlieSmithChannel Fortunate for me, I do live in the US. It will still be a three hour flight from Texas to LA. I had a similar thought to the one someone else had about seeing her while she still performs in smaller venues. I saw a Rolling Stones concert at the Cotton Bowl in Dallas a few years ago and if it had not been for giant video screens on either side of the stage it would have looked like tiny stick figures walking around the stage. The Cotton Bowl is a football stadium here in Dallas, Texas. It also rained on us as it has no cover. Fortunately is was only a light drizzle and had it been a full thunderstorm they might have stopped the concert for safety reasons.

    This is a studio recording and is the version that appears on Toby Gad’s Piano Diaries album. The church was used as a backdrop for the video. There is another video with Angelina walking through the streets of London. That video uses the same studio recorded vocal track but has more contemporary
    instrumentation.
    There is also another video in this same church that is a live performance.
    These videos were made while Angelina and Toby were in London a few months ago.

    ❤️❤️❤️❤️👣 The a capella version where she sings the first half of the song before any music starts was clearly recorded in this setting, I believe. There are some instruments in this version which are not visualized as well as possibly some backing vocals as well so I agree that this version was not entirely recorded here. There are six versions of this song on RUclips by Angelina, possibly seven. Two here, one of her walking around London, one at the Palladium in London, one in LA where she also sings Bad Valentine, and another backstage at the IVORS. There may be another version that I'm missing. I can see that version in my head but can't place it. Needless to say, they are all fantastic. 😊 mabye, it was on stage at the IVORS.

    Also with Grammy winner Toby Gad a song he wrote with her for her voice the spectacular BAD VALENTINE. She still has complete control of her texture. Compare this with her recent NOBEL PEACE PRIZE UNCHAINED MELODY. with the full Kork orchestra.

    ❤️❤️❤️❤️👣 Welcome back. Toby has said she has the best voice of any artist he has ever worked with. There is another version with the first half of the song a capella. There is also a version of her walking through London. And two other versions where they played at a songwriters event and at the Palladium theater. An original that they have previewed at a small venue called Bad Valentine ( the song not the place) is just fantastic. It's on James Thiel's site with Toby's approval.😊

    She did two versions in this church. Both were recorded at the church. One they took back to the studio and filtered out the reverb. The other was totally unfiltered.

    You have to checkout her version when she sings the first half Acapella in the church. It’s definitely not recorded in a studio.

    There is a video where in the first 60 seconds the music is cut off and you can hear Her singing a capella and further more you can hear the voice bouncing off the church walls. It definitly was a live recording. Check it out

    There are 3 other notable videos of If I Were A Boy by Angelina with two of them live performances:
    -- This is the live version in Saint James Church in London that starts out a cappella and then adds the piano and strings. Absolutely hear the reverb: ruclips.net/video/2z6MNi2Vr7E/видео.html
    -- This is the official music video where Angelina is singing while walking around parts of East London (Brick Lane, Allen Gardens, Buxton Street, Commercial Street, Code Street, Grimsby Street): ruclips.net/video/_rJ-HlsTsyM/видео.html
    -- Angelina sings live with Toby Gad on electric piano at Sofar Sounds London. Sofar arranges for small venues for artists to give intimate performances. Here Angelina adds subtle jazz flourishes while singing her unique version as though in a jazz lounge club: ruclips.net/video/ZQio4yGGTOs/видео.html

    Although this song was made famous by Beyonce, this song was neither written by nor for Beyonce, so not her cover. This was co-written by Toby Gad and BC Jean for BC Jean and co writer Toby Gad asked Angelina to re-invent the song for him. Tobias "Toby" Gad (born 28 March 1968) is a German music producer and songwriter based in Los Angeles. He is known for co-writing songs including John Legend's biggest hit, "All of Me", the fifth-highest certified single in RIAA history, and for co-writing and producing "Big Girls Don't Cry" by Fergie and "If I Were a Boy" by Beyoncé. Other notable works include "Skyscraper" for Demi Lovato, "Who You Are" for Jessie J, "Untouched" for The Veronicas, "A Year Without Rain" for Selena Gomez & the Scene, "Don't Hold Your Breath" for Nicole Scherzinger, "Love You More" for JLS, and "I Do" for Colbie Caillat. In the third quarter of 2014, Gad was ranked the #3 songwriter in America by Billboard, behind Ryan Tedder and Pharrell Williams.

    Charlie, great reaction. Yeah, it's recorded in the church, but of course in multiple takes, and then assembled. Check out the hair on or over AJ's shoulder as a reference between cuts. Here's AJ singing the first verse and chorus acapella in the same church: ruclips.net/video/2z6MNi2Vr7E/видео.html. And here's my favorite performance live with solo piano: ruclips.net/video/ZQio4yGGTOs/видео.html. Cheers!

      Sometimes cuts mean multiple things. It can mean she made a mistake with the mouth not shaping the words well or something that will not match with the recording. Or it could mean she moved inappropriately not like she should, meaning that's why there are cuts and multiple takes of the video. If I'm wrong I won't argue though, I'm no producer or editor, I just believe this is exactly like a music video.

    • @TheCharlieSmithChannel
      @TheCharlieSmithChannel  2 месяца назад +1

      @TroyArchAngel exactly this. I don't think it was recorded in the church at all, personally

    • @TroyArchAngel
      @TroyArchAngel 2 месяца назад

      ​@@TheCharlieSmithChannel Also not sure why they would go through making parts live of it since they already had in mind to do a full live version a-cappella. I say one official music video is for the mainstream , then there is this music video for Toby Gad's album "Piano Diaries" which is this, and then the live in Cathedral.

    Be sure to check out her most current video for yourself, it's the live at the church, first half is acapella, a lot of the video is the same as this. It's so beautiful. Church acoustics included 😊. But yeah this is the studio, one of two studios. You can check all 3 on her official channel. Awesome reaction thanks. We need everyone to check out Bad Valentine 😐, 😮, 😍, 🤩. Unreleased, sanctioned epic live performance. ruclips.net/video/yTjzhPSVguc/видео.html

    Charlie, I really enjoy your reactions to Angelina. Thank you. Also, if you enjoy Angelina’s Low Tone and Vocals, there is nothing better than her Elvis’s rendition of “Where Art Thou” where she sings the entire song in that Un-Earthly low tone. A must hear song with her Guitarist, here is the link, Angelina Jordan song “ where thou art ruclips.net/video/uucAePFKqb8/видео.html ) (sorry, the link didn’t work here), anyway, Angelina was 12 yo at the time. Could you react to it if you get a chance. IMO, it is a musical crime it has such few views.

    I think that the acoustics from the part acapella version would have been too much for the tracks Angelina and Toby used on their own productions. Angelina on the streets walking video and Toby for his "Piano Diaries" album. That's possibly why the acapella one is a stand alone version. (IMO). When she belts on the acapella version the reverb is very strong and very stunning. Thanks for the great reaction, keep "Bad Valentine" in your mind for a future reaction, it's something else.

  • @flea10x6

    Your comments suggest you are relatively new to Angelina. For range - the lows, check I Put A Spell on You -recorded with full band in the studio. Various voice coaches have commented on how she moves her larynx and yet able to control the air flow. ruclips.net/video/2z6MNi2Vr7E/видео.htmlsi=12Q1gEqx6BAjtFzm is the acapella using the cathedral's reverb
