Great reaction as always to our barefoot princess ! Angelina as you see can sing all genres of music so comfortable and effortlessly it's uncanny ! She always adds her own style into every song and makes them her own ! Not to many 12 year olds sing like this for sure ! Personally I love her jazz influenced voice the best ! Her breathy, raspy and fabulous vibrato are absolutely her signature ! Wish you nothing but the best on your channel and you're so much appreciated ! Keep posting sweetheart ! 👍🤗🇨🇦🇨🇦❤️❤️❤️
Have you seen her Elvis suspicious minds music video when she was 16 in 2022. Her grandma produced the video and the 2 small girls are her cousins and the older girl is her 11yr old sister , it's tribute to Elvis and Percilla
Thanks for the reaction of Angelina. We are fortunate to be able to follow a megastar be created before you. And yes she has 1000 vocal voices that she is known for. She is now on the same record label as Ariana Grande and Taylor Swift. She was signed 14 years old to Republc Records. They can only press the button when they want to start, but I think they still take it easy when she goes to school and is only 15 years old. But such a large record company certainly has future plans ready already. The "Every Song" Playlist The list is now up to 145 different songs!!! ruclips.net/p/PL2v8kgVeo4EbQD6l_WAVjOfItquzW7oEc
I counted…277 WOW’s❗️ I am so pleased I Subscribed to you. Whitney Houston 29, big studio, 22 takes with all the bells and whistles. Normal. Angelina at 13, one take.🌸
Loved your reaction NG. The young barefoot Angel taking on one of the most Iconic and difficult song to sing and does in wonderfully. Consider Whitney was 29 when she sang and recorded this song in a studio with all the bells and whistles and then along comes a 12-13 year old girl with a mic and soundtrack and gives it all the justice it can have by anyone.
Be careful, she'll change you! I've seen it and felt it! With everything she does better then anyone else, there's something else, and there's no name for it, but it's felt by many.
This is the Angelina Jordan self-chosen basic vocal training program - going toe-to-toe (note for note) with iconic singers...and then a smile at the end!
A UK guy on his channel said “the Voice Chameleon”. Latterly, Angelina change her voice to express whatever that is needed. The only thing we haven’t heard yet is Heavy Metal, but I guess this Chameleon would kill that, too, in her way.
I do love how fearless Angie is & takes on the legends. Her voice is still maturing too. WH sang this song when she was 29 & her voice was already fully grown & mature. Angie was barely 13. Please react to this WH song Angie released this year when she's 15 “When You Believe” by Whitney Houston ft. Mariah Carey ruclips.net/video/uAlVzI8-5hQ/видео.html Angie is 15, released 6-9-21 live from Republic Records there “Switch Hit with Angelina Jordan” Academy award winning song from “Prince of Egypt
She's a little flat on the highest notes, but for a 13 year old(alto - borderline contralto)she does quite well. Another reactor referred to her a a Soul Toucher. I think that is an appropriate nickname for our barefoot princess. Loved your reaction as always. I hope all is well with you, your family and loved ones. Fantastic reaction!! Love your channel!!! Love you Nerdy Girl!! From an old nerd to a young one. Love your reactions!!!
@@garykelley8564Also a vocalist(not so young anymore) perhaps my hearing is slipping(however other vocal coaches and vocalists have been in agreement with me)so I won't assert that I am correct. I am content to agree to disagree because I could be wrong. Thank you very much for your comment. Take care!
@@garykelley8564 Please don't apologize for expressing your point of view. I could very well be mistaken also. I know I need better headphones. Thank you for your comment. All my best to you and your loved ones!
She does an even better job of singing this after rehearsing it with David Foster a few months after this for a benefit concert, he wrote the song and produced it for Whitney. He later praised her to the Beach Boys
Angelina is the 'Peter Paul Mound's of singers, as the commercial for this candy bar says, " is indescribable ". words do not do her justice for her vocal abilities as a pre teen age girl!!, or any of her attained ages for that matter..
Lol, I really enjoyed your reaction to not only her singing but to her as well...Thank you for all the WOWS, they are very understandable. Keep up the great work. Now you must also check out her cover of Amy Winehouse BACK TO BLACK with Kork when she was only 10 yrs old. I think you'll love it too. 😇💞💞💞
Hi nerdy girl you crack me up were you able to find your jaw on the floor and put it back on before you stepped on it I believe Angelina took on this song to show the critics that she could belt if you wanted to the note change you are thinking of are key changes this song should be close to Impossible for a 13 year old girl to do it but Angelina pulls it off the highest note she hits is in E Flat 5 For You music teachers
By her own insistence, she visits the music academies of first Oslo, then LA besides normal school/Highschool since the age of 4 (FOUR). She studies ALL genres of music including opera. German greetings and stay save and healthy
Yes, 12 going on 28. That's how old Whitney was when she sang this. It's almost like Angelina years has something in common with dog years, because this young lady is performing way beyond her actual age. As Frank mentions below, "Feeling Good" is one you don't want to miss, ruclips.net/video/p8kAL-sGJx8/видео.html along with another Queen song, "The Show Must Go On", ruclips.net/video/6NJv02ot5jg/видео.html or, if you want to see her do a completely different genre, check her (audio only) of a song written just for her, by another Norwegian band called TRXD, that does EDM. "Above The Water" ruclips.net/video/rpdHJJQAd9Y/видео.html
A great performance from Angelina, not her usual thing, but after all her first attempt at singing at 18months old was a Whitney Houston song! Where she really stands out from other singers, in this song, is in the soft velvety tones in the quieter moments, she really knows how to get straight through to our emotions! Perhaps that is why she has almost 12 million views for this performance on her cover channel. I think that she recorded this to show to David Foster, I believe that she performed with him at a charity event around this time. There are photos of Angelina with David and Avril Levine - it's quite amusing that Angelina is the tallest by some margin, David is in the middle and Avril is so much shorter!
NGB - I’m thinking you are a total AJ and WH fan. Love the way you lip sync to the Artistry of AJ! Your comments are so spot on! With AJ “Wow!” is always appropriate - and isn’t a superlative…just a statement of fact! Thanks…
I noticed when you "moused over" the "next" button at one point in this reaction that RUclips had her performance of "Feeling Good" on _The Stream Gib Tilbake_ as the "next" video. That wouldn't be a bad choice for your next AJ reaction. It is, IMHO, a _perfect_ rendition of that song. It's on her Official channel - along with a different version of the same song that she did 5 or 6 months earlier on another TV show, _Allsang på Grensen_ . I prefer the later _Stream_ version, but some people prefer the earlier _Allsang_ version. You could always do both… [grin]
Altogether these following performances show that whether rehearsal, on TV, live concert or studio, Angelina pretty much gives stellar performance. They also show maturing of her voice and slight changes Angelina made in her performance of this song from when 9-year old to 12-year old: ---- on July 9, 2021 you reacted to video when Angelina as 9-year old did studio performance of I Put A Spell On You. Incredible as sounds much older than she was at time. The link again: ruclips.net/video/nwFloCPXzCs/видео.html) ---- as 11-year old (Little Big Stars German TV show performance that shows significant growth in her voice: ruclips.net/video/eASqvRGt46k/видео.html) ---- as 11-year old (live performance of I Put A Spell On You that is amazing. This performance was bonus song for audience at Muse in City festival, in Seoul, South Korea. Angelia had finished her set, there was long interval before Norah Jones was to start her set. Norah asked if Angelina could give them one more song, so she came back and did this: ruclips.net/video/HUTzYhGQEvM/видео.html) ---- as 12-year old (Angelina sung I Put A Spell On You at 2018 Kongsberg Jazz Festival in Norway that is 3 years after original studio recording. Notice how her voice had matured. Unfortunately, there is only audio recording with some brief video of Screamin' Jay Hawkins, original singer of song, at beginning and picture slides of original video recording overlaid into this new video: ruclips.net/video/zdFjajHFAOA/видео.html) ---- as 12-year old (rehearsal version of I Put A Spell On You for 2018 Kongsberg Jazz Festival in Norway: ruclips.net/video/lW8g5QmTLY0/видео.html)
Thanks for the reaction, Blue. Whitney is a once in a lifetime icon. I don't think this was Angelina's best work and, if I'm honest, Whitney's released studio version was better. I don't know how many takes, nor what effects were used in Whitney's released version. I've seen a number of videos of Whitney singing this live and I think Angelina's is better than any of them.
Sadly, Angelina’s paternal grandfather died in March 2018 and her maternal grandfather died in November 2019. Angelina’s maternal grandmother Mery Zamani has had tremendous influence on Angelina and her career as she introduced Angelina to Jazz at early age. Mery is famous Iranian contemporary writer, poet and painter who was also child prodigy herself being on Radio Iran's Children program at age 4 and began writing poetry and painting by age of 9. Later Mery was trained in art at Tokyo Academy in Japan where she met her husband, who was Japanese, during her master degree's training in Japan. There is nine year old video showing some of Mery's artwork in home setting: ruclips.net/video/i9NxX0tSjS0/видео.html ---- Mery has RUclips channel that supports Angelina called Angelina Jordan Fanclub Mosarz: ruclips.net/channel/UChM_lpT4shdnsez93QMJPig. There are lots of videos in it that could only have been taken by insider or family member. Mery is also widely known under artist alias name Mosarz ---- Mery illustrated book that Angelina wrote ("Mellom to hjerter" that translates to Between Two Hearts) and was published in November 2015 when Angelina was 9 years-old and became youngest published author in Norway. Book based on Angelina's notes in her diary/notebooks and describes her meeting with shoeless girl. Podcast was published by Angelina’s publisher, Cappelen Damm, in 2015. In it Angelina talks with Erling Kittelsen, Norwegian author and poet and friend of family, about her book. Angelina tells of her understanding with little girl that Angelina will not wear shoes when she performs and that little girl will pray for Angelina. During pauses in talk, we hear small extracts from book which should be on children's reading list: ruclips.net/video/6p6iL989P_8/видео.html There are three published Angelina videos created and directed by Mery: ---- Fly Me To The Moon (as 10-year old performed in video. One of most viewed Angelina videos: ruclips.net/video/jnnzbdt4_RE/видео.html) ---- When You're Smiling (as 11-year old. Fun video that starts out with Angelina missing school attendance. She is riding bike and comes across sad girl crying and stops to see what is wrong. You will have to watch video to see what happens next: ruclips.net/video/bLuNQ6s7fCQ/видео.html) ---- Shield [as 12-year old, Angelina wrote this song. As 13-year old, Mery did artistic video of Angelina performing song: ruclips.net/video/m8OCbAlr_48/видео.html. As 12-year old, performed on very popular Scandinavian talk show Skavlan (2.5 to 3 million viewers per show): ruclips.net/video/lQtUbVKb0vs/видео.html] [In interview (changes to English at about 0:36 mark) before Angelina sung on Skavlan, paraphrasing, she said that when she sings she goes into endless other world that is full of happiness. She said that song Shield is about someone you love and whose strong love protects you wherever you are. Angelina said song's sound was inspired by Bond films. Her favorite Bond film songs are Diamonds Are Forever and Goldfinger. She sings few bars of Diamonds Are Forever a cappella. She said that highlight of her career was singing for Quincy Jones' 85th birthday concert in London. When asked if she feels like she is 12 years old, Angelina says she only does when she looks at her passport: ruclips.net/video/97hjWg4ToRQ/видео.html] ---- 7th Heaven (wrote as 15-year old. There are four video versions. Audio with lyrics that uses Mery’s painting Rows of Angels as background: ruclips.net/video/o4Vl3I1WWq4/видео.html. Audio only with last measure slightly different from studio version: ruclips.net/video/N0yK_07a1_U/видео.html. Studio live performance with last measure slightly different: ruclips.net/video/bM8DzMRbiIc/видео.html. Official music video that uses audio only soundtrack: ruclips.net/video/9rLiWvwzbCA/видео.html) [Studio video was created by Stargate who is top shelf record producing and songwriting team (Tor E. Hermansen and Mikkel S. Eriksen) that is now based in Los Angeles. Team's genres include R&B, pop and hip hop. They have won 4 Grammy Awards and been nominated 17 times. Besides Angelina, they have produced or written for Michael Jackson, Mariah Carey, Lionel Richie, Wiz Khalifa, Britney Spears, Beyoncé, Rihanna, Selena Gomez, Rita Ora, Normani, Mis-Teeq, Celine Dion, Blue, Janet Jackson, Shakira, Jennifer Lopez, Sam Smith, Mary J. Blige, Ne-Yo, Katy Perry, Coldplay, Pink, Sia, Whitney Houston, Nas, Chris Brown, Khalid, Charli XCX, Trey Songz and others] [Angelina said: “The initial idea for ‘7th Heaven’ was that I love the number 7, and ‘heaven’ is such a powerful word and makes you dream away,” she explained. “I collaborated with Stargate to create ‘7th Heaven.’ The background story of making this song was that I had this melody that I played for Tor and Mikkel and it turned out that they loved the idea and it went pretty smooth from there to the finish [the] song.” Angelina and her team kept tweaking the song until it was perfect and ready for release. “We definitely tried many different elements to feel the right sound to it,” she said.] [Angelina revealed that she is often inspired to create music from personal pain: “Strong emotions, mainly painful ones, often make me write music,” she shared] [Angelina said that studio video will look like: “The visual will look something like old school meets new school kinda vibe to it,” she assured. “I love the styles they had before and I want to bring it back again.”] ---- Million Miles (co-wrote as 14-year old. There are three video versions. Audio with lyrics using Mery’s paintings as background: ruclips.net/video/NhKRh5ZtuWk/видео.html. Official music video: ruclips.net/video/XA1_CUaM52I/видео.html. Studio live performance: ruclips.net/video/3KxvwuZ7oEM/видео.html) [Angelina said "This song is dedicated to anyone who has lost a loved one. I wrote this song thinking about all the great memories I had with my grandpa and how much it hurts to lose someone. I hope this song finds a place in your heart, as it comes straight from mine."]
Hi, I'm a bit distrubed by the comments of andrea silvestro and fellow musician that the video was actually "doctored" Please refer to "Musicians react to Angelina Jordan singing I have nothing.... 8 minutes into the the video.
On the cusp of 13 years old. Outstanding performance. Many singers can hit the higher notes but few, if any, can get the little inflections and nuances with the softer notes in between those high notes and then deliver a perfect landing with such soft tones immediately after belting the final high notes. Amazing for a 12/13 year old. Angelina's lower range is even more impressive. Please consider the jazz standard "FEELING GOOD" Live on the Stream Gir Tilbake version, at 10 years old. It is another performance that will floor you, especially the ending. I promise you will not believe your ears and eyes. No child here!! Thanks so much for continuing to delve into the magic of Angelina. Cheers from Florida
Exactly, Frank, well said. It's her soft, breathy, whisper singing & of course her beautifully toned low notes that set her apart. She can leave the super high notes to the many belting soprano's that are out there now. I 2nd the Feelin' Good recommendation, it's the best of many versions I've heard; a real masterpiece, live on National TV.
Please forgive me if I have left this message before but it is pertinent to your channel. As a newer subscriber, I thoroughly enjoyed your insightful reaction and look forward to future videos. As you may be aware from your own channel, artists' success online is based upon increasing views.The relationship between reactor and artist is mutual and neither can exist without the other. Because you admire and respect the performers in your reactions, the solution is to consider promoting both of you equally. If you are not already doing so, I suggest posting links to the artists' original videos as well as their official channels, alongside with yours! Furthermore, and most importantly, please make the effort to verbally encourage viewers to click the links and to like and subscribe to both of your sites! Most reactors do a great job of vocally self promoting, but the artists deserve a win-win team effort as well! Thank you for embracing Angelina's dream to sing for the world to spread love and peace.

She smashes everything that crosses her path. Every. Single. Time.

Angelina you touch my soul with your singing.
Outstanding performance,10 out of 10! Great reaction! Angelina always delivers. Stay safe.
She covered Whitney feat. Mariah recently, "When You believe" . She's 15 now, mindblowing to think what's coming in a few short years.
She warms your heart!
Great reaction as always to our barefoot princess ! Angelina as you see can sing all genres of music so comfortable and effortlessly it's uncanny ! She always adds her own style into every song and makes them her own ! Not to many 12 year olds sing like this for sure ! Personally I love her jazz influenced voice the best ! Her breathy, raspy and fabulous vibrato are absolutely her signature ! Wish you nothing but the best on your channel and you're so much appreciated ! Keep posting sweetheart ! 👍🤗🇨🇦🇨🇦❤️❤️❤️
Great artist
Your expressions said it all, great reaction, looking forward to the next. God Bless!
Have you seen her Elvis suspicious minds music video when she was 16 in 2022. Her grandma produced the video and the 2 small girls are her cousins and the older girl is her 11yr old sister , it's tribute to Elvis and Percilla
Thanks for the reaction of Angelina. We are fortunate to be able to follow a megastar be created before you. And yes she has 1000 vocal voices that she is known for. She is now on the same record label as Ariana Grande and Taylor Swift. She was signed 14 years old to Republc Records. They can only press the button when they want to start, but I think they still take it easy when she goes to school and is only 15 years old. But such a large record company certainly has future plans ready already.

I counted…277 WOW’s❗️ I am so pleased I Subscribed to you. Whitney Houston 29, big studio, 22 takes with all the bells and whistles. Normal. Angelina at 13, one take.🌸
Mark my words, in 10 - 15 years from now Angelina will be considered the greatest singer ever.
Loved your reaction NG. The young barefoot Angel taking on one of the most Iconic and difficult song to sing and does in wonderfully. Consider Whitney was 29 when she sang and recorded this song in a studio with all the bells and whistles and then along comes a 12-13 year old girl with a mic and soundtrack and gives it all the justice it can have by anyone.
Stupendous reaction Nerdy Girl Blue, Angelina IMHO gives a fitting tribute. Thumbs up lady.
A singer's , singer , enjoyed your reaction
Congratulations... I believe you just set a new record with a 16 x "WOW" Angelina reaction...
I was enjoying all the WOWS...😆😆
I LOVE everything about this but I always get a KICK out of her pointing her finger into the air as she goes to hit those notes! Go, Angelina!
❤️ your reaction 👍🙂
Be careful, she'll change you! I've seen it and felt it! With everything she does better then anyone else, there's something else, and there's no name for it, but it's felt by many.
This is the Angelina Jordan self-chosen basic vocal training program - going toe-to-toe (note for note) with iconic singers...and then a smile at the end!
A UK guy on his channel said “the Voice Chameleon”. Latterly, Angelina change her voice to express whatever that is needed. The only thing we haven’t heard yet is Heavy Metal, but I guess this Chameleon would kill that, too, in her way.
Thanks for reacting to this special Angel ! Please react to her singing It's a Mans World , live by Boris .
I do love how fearless Angie is & takes on the legends. Her voice is still maturing too. WH sang this song when she was 29 & her voice was already fully grown & mature. Angie was barely 13. Please react to this WH song Angie released this year when she's 15 “When You Believe” by Whitney Houston ft. Mariah Carey ruclips.net/video/uAlVzI8-5hQ/видео.html
Angie is 15, released 6-9-21 live from Republic Records there “Switch Hit with Angelina Jordan” Academy award winning song from “Prince of Egypt
She's a little flat on the highest notes, but for a 13 year old(alto - borderline contralto)she does quite well. Another reactor referred to her a a Soul Toucher.

Love you Nerdy Girl!! From an old nerd to a young one. Love your reactions!!!
As a professional singer she's not flat at all Angelina has perfect pitch there's no way she's going to sing flat sorry I disagree with you

I believe she was 12🌹🌸🌺🇳🇴❤️🇩🇰
Some say 12, others 13. I honestly don't know.
This was nuts! How can a child sing better than most adults?
She does an even better job of singing this after rehearsing it with David Foster a few months after this for a benefit concert, he wrote the song and produced it for Whitney. He later praised her to the Beach Boys
Angelina is the 'Peter Paul Mound's of singers, as the commercial for this candy bar says, " is indescribable ". words do not do her justice for her vocal abilities as a pre teen age girl!!, or any of her attained ages for that matter..
She was mid 12th year here. This is the song she started singing at 18 months old so shes had plenty of time to practice
The song on utube at 18 months old was the Dolly Parton I will allways love you.
Think about this. Angelina is almost 13 where as Whitney was 29 when she sang this.
Lol, I really enjoyed your reaction to not only her singing but to her as well...Thank you for all the WOWS, they are very understandable. Keep up the great work. Now you must also check out her cover of Amy Winehouse BACK TO BLACK with Kork when she was only 10 yrs old. I think you'll love it too. 😇💞💞💞
Angelina puts her whole body, arms and hand motions into the singing of this song. What pizazz! Thanks for the reaction NG.

Hi nerdy girl. It was nice being with you for this. Our angel is 🔥🔥🔥
This was done just before her 13th birthday before she did AGT. So she was still 12 not quite 13
Angelina has been singing Whitney since 1 and a half years old,her music is in her bones.

During pauses in talk, we hear small extracts from book which should be on children's reading list: ruclips.net/video/6p6iL989P_8/видео.html
There are three published Angelina videos created and directed by Mery:
---- Fly Me To The Moon (as 10-year old performed in video. One of most viewed Angelina videos: ruclips.net/video/jnnzbdt4_RE/видео.html)
---- When You're Smiling (as 11-year old. Fun video that starts out with Angelina missing school attendance. She is riding bike and comes across sad girl crying and stops to see what is wrong. You will have to watch video to see what happens next: ruclips.net/video/bLuNQ6s7fCQ/видео.html)
---- Shield [as 12-year old, Angelina wrote this song. As 13-year old, Mery did artistic video of Angelina performing song: ruclips.net/video/m8OCbAlr_48/видео.html. As 12-year old, performed on very popular Scandinavian talk show Skavlan (2.5 to 3 million viewers per show): ruclips.net/video/lQtUbVKb0vs/видео.html]
[In interview (changes to English at about 0:36 mark) before Angelina sung on Skavlan, paraphrasing, she said that when she sings she goes into endless other world that is full of happiness. She said that song Shield is about someone you love and whose strong love protects you wherever you are. Angelina said song's sound was inspired by Bond films. Her favorite Bond film songs are Diamonds Are Forever and Goldfinger. She sings few bars of Diamonds Are Forever a cappella. She said that highlight of her career was singing for Quincy Jones' 85th birthday concert in London. When asked if she feels like she is 12 years old, Angelina says she only does when she looks at her passport: ruclips.net/video/97hjWg4ToRQ/видео.html]
---- 7th Heaven (wrote as 15-year old. There are four video versions. Audio with lyrics that uses Mery’s painting Rows of Angels as background: ruclips.net/video/o4Vl3I1WWq4/видео.html. Audio only with last measure slightly different from studio version: ruclips.net/video/N0yK_07a1_U/видео.html.

[Studio video was created by Stargate who is top shelf record producing and songwriting team (Tor E. Hermansen and Mikkel S. Eriksen) that is now based in Los Angeles. Team's genres include R&B, pop and hip hop. They have won 4 Grammy Awards and been nominated 17 times.

Blige, Ne-Yo, Katy Perry, Coldplay, Pink, Sia, Whitney Houston, Nas, Chris Brown, Khalid, Charli XCX, Trey Songz and others]
[Angelina said: “The initial idea for ‘7th Heaven’ was that I love the number 7, and ‘heaven’ is such a powerful word and makes you dream away,” she explained. “I collaborated with Stargate to create ‘7th Heaven.’ The background story of making this song was that I had this melody that I played for Tor and Mikkel and it turned out that they loved the idea and it went pretty smooth from there to the finish [the] song.” Angelina and her team kept tweaking the song until it was perfect and ready for release. “We definitely tried many different elements to feel the right sound to it,” she said.]
[Angelina revealed that she is often inspired to create music from personal pain: “Strong emotions, mainly painful ones, often make me write music,” she shared]
[Angelina said that studio video will look like: “The visual will look something like old school meets new school kinda vibe to it,” she assured. “I love the styles they had before and I want to bring it back again.”]
---- Million Miles (co-wrote as 14-year old. There are three video versions. Audio with lyrics using Mery’s paintings as background: ruclips.net/video/NhKRh5ZtuWk/видео.html. Official music video: ruclips.net/video/XA1_CUaM52I/видео.html. Studio live performance: ruclips.net/video/3KxvwuZ7oEM/видео.html)
[Angelina said "This song is dedicated to anyone who has lost a loved one. I wrote this song thinking about all the great memories I had with my grandpa and how much it hurts to lose someone. I hope this song finds a place in your heart, as it comes straight from mine."]
All I ask ,that you do her cover of Adells classic,all I ask.🇨🇦😷😃
Hi, I'm a bit distrubed by the comments of andrea silvestro and fellow musician that the video was actually "doctored"
Please refer to "Musicians react to Angelina Jordan singing I have nothing....
8 minutes into the the video.
Angelina Jordan has released a new video today: Angelina Jordan- Billie Jean (Jazzy Micheal Jackson Cover)
On the cusp of 13 years old. Outstanding performance. Many singers can hit the higher notes but few, if any, can get the little inflections and nuances with the softer notes in between those high notes and then deliver a perfect landing with such soft tones immediately after belting the final high notes. Amazing for a 12/13 year old. Angelina's lower range is even more impressive.
Please consider the jazz standard "FEELING GOOD" Live on the Stream Gir Tilbake version, at 10 years old. It is another performance that will floor you, especially the ending. I promise you will not believe your ears and eyes. No child here!!
Thanks so much for continuing to delve into the magic of Angelina. Cheers from Florida
Exactly, Frank, well said. It's her soft, breathy, whisper singing & of course her beautifully toned low notes that set her apart. She can leave the super high notes to the many belting soprano's that are out there now. I 2nd the Feelin' Good recommendation, it's the best of many versions I've heard; a real masterpiece, live on National TV.
Isn't she, "Just The Best"? Rhetorical!
Please forgive me if I have left this message before but it is pertinent to your channel. As a newer subscriber, I thoroughly enjoyed your insightful reaction and look forward to future videos. As you may be aware from your own channel, artists' success online is based upon increasing views.The relationship between reactor and artist is mutual and neither can exist without the other. Because you admire and respect the performers in your reactions, the solution is to consider promoting both of you equally. If you are not already doing so, I suggest posting links to the artists' original videos as well as their official channels, alongside with yours! Furthermore, and most importantly, please make the effort to verbally encourage viewers to click the links and to like and subscribe to both of your sites! Most reactors do a great job of vocally self promoting, but the artists deserve a win-win team effort as well! Thank you for embracing Angelina's dream to sing for the world to spread love and peace.
