She has become the best all-round singer in the world, period! 16 years old. Thanks also to Republic Records and the team around her. And thanks to Angelina for letting us have old clips where you try all the time, and even play a chord wrong on the piano or guitar when you're practicing, and you choose to post it. It is what has made you the greatness you are today. No other artist does this today. Everything somehow becomes more real listening to you. Thanks for bringing real music back!
MY 2nd COMMENT!! I sent you a link showing her SINGING @ 1 1/2 yrs old, into her toy 🎤.. I'll Always Love You... It's an "Early Warning" of what came to be... And she was wearing a princess dress!!!! AWESOME!!!! It's in about 1:53!! Enjoy!!! 🎤🎤🎤🎤🎤🎤
She changed the key to this song, but does it really matter as long as she has the ability to give each word, or phrase, meaning like no one else in this universe can. How can she evoke such emotion in each and every performance? Why do I get chills, or cry tears, or lose my breath when Angelina sing a song that I have experienced many times in the past without this happening? If this feeling only happened to me that would be ok, but it happens to billions of people. We play these videos of AJ over, and over again to get our high. I was a Whitney fan from the beginning of her career to her tragic end. Whitney was great, but Angelina at 16 is far better than Whitney ever was at making you feel each word, and phrase. AJ changes every cover to make if hers and far, far better than the original. AJ is the greatest STORYTELLING ARTEST I have ever experienced in my 75 years.
She brought it in for a perfect, gentle landing on that final note for "you." Angelina never over does the vocal gymnastics, she is the Goldie Locks of vocal gymnastics, never too little, never too much, but always just right. She uses it to enhance the emotion of the song , not just to impress like so many do.
Wonderful reaction. You are right, she is simply indescribable! You can just let yourself be carried away by her incredible voice that makes you float in the air and lulls you with the sweetness of her vocal transitions with a wonderful blend of pure silk and sonic power. Angelina has such a humble presence and is so emotionally honest that she totally captivates and enchant you. 💛🧡❤
This performance is beyond belief, the cinemaphotography, the ART, and this time we get to savor over 4 minutes of total bliss, no one is capable of doing this song justice like Angelina Jordan. David Foster and Linda Thompson, who co-wrote this ballad for Whitney Houston would be blown away by this performance.
The Cinemaphotography, a total MASTERPIECE, Excellent ART Cole McCarthy and Chip McCarthy. Angelina at 16 is the MASTER of her universe, she is top priority for both Stargate, and Republic Records. AJ's voice has been unique since she was 7 years old and now at 16, she controls us as an audience, leaving us hang on every word and phrase. AJ adopts the performance to pay homage to the original hit but then makes it her own and so much better than the original. Credits: Director: Cole McCarthy Executive Producer: Mery Zamani Art Director: Chip McCarthy Piano & Arrangements: Rob Christie Gaffer: Kevin Rios Coordinator: Michael Astar Location: Los Angeles, CA ℗All Rights Reserved - Angelina Jordan Inc There are no ends to the unique signature voice of Angelina Jordan, and her ability to feed our need for the finest STORYTELLING ARTIST that has ever lived in this period of time. At 75 I thought I had experienced the greatest, but nothing compares to AJ.
You need to watch Million Miles studio version, the absolute most beautiful song I’ve ever heard. Her voice, the emotion, it will takes your breath away
A little scary HOW good at 16 Angelina continues to move the goalpost. Musical magical miracle. Girls from a different planet bringing a little heaven to earth. Please check out ….”My funny valentine. Never will we see another talent like Angelina. One of a kind. Two of the hardest songs to sing imaginable and well IMHO never done better by anyone at any age.
Don't you dare walk away from me..she dedicated it to her grandma at her latest concert in Kurbadhagen Norway 💯💕 If you have the chance to see her Life, do it. Her concerts are like a never ending dream. But I woke up after her performing 18 songs 💗👪💓🎸💃
I'd say not so much superfans and more like extended family as many have watched her grow up. She has two channels so be sure to sub to both and she has a ticktok that contains some absolute gems!
You’re good! “She doesn’t over do it, you know like some artist”..Angelina’s performances are about the message behind the song …they are never about her..)) That end note 😍😍😍
Hello, Beautiful! Thank you for this. It has been an exciting Angelina Jordan year, with this being icing on the cake. Well, catch up, Dear One, because she drops an album next year, 2023, I hear. Here she impresses and then sends us home with the long velvet ribbon of that last note. 💜
Hey Nice reaction ...again, I like really your way of reacting, very delicate and appreciative ! Welcome again to Angelina's world ; Just subscribed to see more of your reactions to Angelina's catalogue 😽
Angelina dedicated this song, during her recent concerts, to her grandmother Mery who has been battling health issues. We wish Mery good health and now each time I listen to Angelina sing this song, I get emotional.
I know, it's remarkable. Recently, I was having a business meeting with someone and the topic of conversation became music. I brought up Angelina's name (he had never heard of her) and I suggested he put her on his phone so he could listen to her later on. He asked me who my favorite singer was. I hesitated and then blurted our, "Angelina Jordan," and I backed it up by saying everyone else I thought of comes up short! He told me his favorite singer of all time was Whitney Houston. At that moment I told him, "Okay, this conversation is going to another level. She also does Whitney Houston covers so settle down in your chair and get ready to hear Angelina sing 'I Have Nothing'." Need I go on? :):) He was flabbergasted. I then played him her version of Elvis Presley's 'Suspicious Minds' and by that time he became totally speechless. BTW, he went to the internet and purchased all her CD's. I'll end my comment by saying he told me, "With everything you've told me about her and she's still only 16 years old there's enough material here to do a movie about her!"
I was never a fan of pop diva singing and singers. I had never listened to this song clear through when Whitney made it popular. I got so sick of it because you couldn’t get away from it at the time. I had never heard it clear through, that is, until AJ sang it. I still don’t care for the song that much. It’s her voice. My God it’s so beautiful and so mesmerizing. You can’t not listen. She could sing the phone book and it would have the same impact. She is truly one of a kind.
Angelina has performed ‘I Have Nothing’ three times (I’m grouping all the live versions together). The original- ruclips.net/video/eTcvvO6B3Io/видео.html - has 14.5 million views and the live version - ruclips.net/video/AqtIVYFjapQ/видео.html - has 1.3 million views in less than 3 weeks, it is the Official version - ruclips.net/video/iX0g99jN26U/видео.html - has more than 200,000 views in three days. Not only is the Official version the best it has the potential to vastly outstrip the other versions by the end of the year if not earlier. I personally think the Official version is better than Whitney Houston’s version. There is a new young lady in the music realm, her name is Sarah James. The two songs from AGT on RUclips are: 1. Her audition on AGT is a cover of Billie Eilish’s Lovely - ruclips.net/video/HZb-nym3HhA/видео.html 2. The second song is a cover of Elton John’s Rocket Man - ruclips.net/video/nNTEukCadL0/видео.html I have a playlist - Sarah James Playlist by Terry M. I am a long-time Angelina Jordan fan but I believe that Sarah James has the potential to be as good as Angelina.
Last time I was here I commented on your fabulous hair and I just noticed your instagram handle at the end of this video, haha brilliant 😁 You seem to have good ears for music and because of that I think you are in for a real treat with Angelina. The nuances in her voice have nuances. Loved your reaction, thanks so much for sharing! 💖
You ask HOW.. I believe she's gifted This link shows her at 1:53 in she's BORN TO SING... TO SAAANG!! ruclips.net/video/KZ2KR1YMyOE/видео.html Thank you for acknowledging that a deeply MOVING performance isn't the result of belting your way through... This final "ribbon" last note is simply EXQUISITE!!! SO glad you SEE, FEEL her emotion!! I could tell you felt the big hug she sang around your heart ... You're FAMILY now!!! Whoop Whoop!! 💕PEACE
AJ has a voice and produces a sound that causes goosebumps. No matter what song she sing, whether by James Brown, Elvis Presley, Elton John, Billie Holiday or others, it always becomes her song. She is fantastic. You still have a lot ahead of you.
I love watching new AJ admirers discover her. Your reactions are among the best. You might want to go back catch her early win of Norways Got talent, all three songs., special attention to one a cappella, but the first one was unbelievable. Of course so many of hers are. Such a rich list of exquisite artistry.
FOUR songs .. but who as counting? ME! Because they are all four brilliant in different ways. "Gloomy Sunday" .. clean and simple .. but also the sadness .. she gets it all without acting without pushing. SIMPLY .. she lets the song and the vocal reminder of Billie Holliday melt the listener .. (oh my!!) 😊 "I'm a Fool to Want You" .. She sings an impossibly complex song A Capella! SHE IS A DREAM. When listening to these a few years back, friends would say of the other competitors standing all around her that they must be thinking .. oh well .. we might as well get out of here! I think they are instead thinking .. what are these totally weird songs she is singing!? Hahaha! (Both of the first 2 songs are Billie Holiday songs.) "Bang! Bang!" She does wonders with simplicity and innocence here. STUNNING. (Written by Sonny Bono .. made famous by Nancy Sinatra.) AND THEN ... "Summertime" .. magnificently dreamy and loaded with nostalgia .. her her vibrato suddenly shows in a way that makes no sense for an 8 year old. WOAH!! GORGEOUS!! .. I can only imagine half the audience is not breathing so they don't miss a second of this gorgeous George Gershwin song from "Porgy and Bess". What do you mean English is not her first language?! PLEASE WATCH ALL FOUR .. and get the video with all four on it AND translations so you can u understand the judges.
At her last concert on July 10th 2022, when Angelina told why she sings this song and dedicated it to her grandmother Mery Zamani ( her grandmother could not accompany Angelina on the trip to Norway ), I understand this song completely differently. Whenever I hear the line "Don't you dare walk away from me", I hear and see Angelina before my eyes, no matter who sings it. 💯 *AJ* 💯
Awesome reaction to an Awesome Artist who isn't afraid to share her mistakes! 1st it shows she is human, but also shows how she builds on them mistakes that make her The Master she is, God Bless!
Your admiration for Angelina is as classy as her voice. You have found your avenue to bliss. Keep with her and you will always get a lift in your day. Thank you for your reaction. 🎶
Sweet reaction..thanks. I recommend that you react to Angelina's performance of "Cry Me a River" at the 2017 Proysenfestivalen in Norway. ( ruclips.net/video/Zr4INP8yhB0/видео.html ) Angelina's "lane" is jazz/blues and this performance is a classic. She performed 13 other songs that day (all great).
Your reaction is so genuine and priceless and she's only 16! Try her 'What A Difference it Makes' at 8 and 'Feeling Good' 10? at the same outdoor venue. Then there's her AGT goldern buzzer classics from Queen and Elton John. Also try her bluesy Etta James cover of 'I'd Rather Go Blind' or her covers of other classics from Sinatra, Amy Winehouse, Elvis, Michael Jackson, etc. Enjoy.
Love your reaction. Angelina's version was sweet and powerful. She stirs the chemicals in your body and keep you wanting more. Her growth from when she sang this song 3 years ago is astonishing and I know she will continue to surprise us with more.
she is more & more phenomenal with each song. Her music is almost life -giving..... God bless her. Your reaction was so real , your face so emotional and loving. Really appreciated it.....
Hi, and thank you for your fine reaction to Angelina. Angelina flipped the switch this year, took it to the next level. For the first time in this quality I heard Angelina in the song - Suspicious Minds 16 years old - ruclips.net/video/RTbKhkceR00/видео.html - Elvis Presley Cover Angelina has sung this song (I have nothing) before and her interpretation was much closer to Whitney Houston. The new arrangement is much more self-contained, yet still expresses the respect for Whitney that Angelina certainly has. See her lower and higher range: - How great thou art 13 years old - ruclips.net/video/WLAEy1LIHrc/видео.html - well known by Elvis - I have nothing 12 years old - ruclips.net/video/eTcvvO6B3Io/видео.html - Whitney Houston cover She is called "The Barefoot Princess with 1000 Voices". She is able to adapt her voice to her arrangements of the songs. I believe that applies to her early years. There were many different genres and voices to be heard. Angelina is able to adapt her voice to her arrangement of the song. Angelina has apparently found her style since this year, which she has shown again and again in recent years. But the vocal quality in the latest songs is tremendous. However, you should also enjoy listening to her "old" songs that made her what she is now. And the development will continue. - I’d rather go blind 12 years old - ruclips.net/video/pK8mMXQb3_I/видео.html - Angelina on a sofa testing a new microphone, Etta James cover - Something's got a hold on me 11 years old - ruclips.net/video/TCc4Yjri3pc/видео.html - great gospel Have a nice day and Greetings from Germany
I love your reactions to Angelina and I subscribed right away when you reacted to I put a spell on you. And I am already keen on following your journey through Angelina´s videos. Thank you.
Tears, goosebumps, shivers, tingling spine, more tears - Angelina wrings me dry like a wet sponge. A magnificent performance! BTW, there is another reactor named Candace Fontaine, who also reacts to Angelina. Your voice and hers sound so much alike, I was wondering if you two are related? Just curious. Thanks for following Angelina!
I love your reaction to Angelina's version of Whitney Houston's classic "I Have Nothing," paying tribute to Whitney with a beautiful rendition of her song.
This is like.. “what if Whitney was taller and sounded richer in her low notes but is giving up nothing about the top of her range…” Angelina and Billie are my current 2 favorite vocalists. Just love watching both perform.
For me, it is her rich, full voice and because it is a lower register that can convey a darker, serious, mysteriousness that makes you pay attention. It is a woman's voice not the high pitched 'girls' voice that is common in popular music. She is a voice lover's dream.
Fantastica sua reaçao! Foi tão pura quanto a pureza da Angelina🙏! Percebemos que foi sincera e conseguiu passar a intensidade de sua emoção ao ouvi-la! Parabéns!
I think very little is a god given talent, or even genetics. I think it is formative years, no one starts that young, no one gets that good in that short amount of time. But if you start that young, with the right kind of people around you and encouragement, maybe 10 years of professional experience at 16, in circumstances that and up just right those 10 years maybe mean a lot more than 10 years usually would. Her voice, her tone is all that can be confirmed a gift she received. IMO it is the only gift. The rest is an incredible girl and her village.
How can Angelina sing Whitney Houston so well? She has been singing Whitney since 18 months old. See this YT video (ruclips.net/video/VJjG68Dfr-8/видео.html) with her singing Whitney (1:53 into this short video). At 18 months, she probably doesn't know the English words, but she does understand the depth of the music. Even now, she picks the songs that speak to her and often arranges them to bring out the soulful connections she feels speak to everyone. I hope you will continue your Angelina journey. A Subscriber
Lady, you are right, it is God given. Her voice, as some vocal experts explained, is so rich, deep and wonderful, because her neck is a tiny bit longer than usual. Her whole body, she is about 186 cm tall, works as a resonator. The other gift is in her realy high IQ (confirmed), sometimes a real curse for the parents. BUT, as her dad works all over the world, little Angelina had to help raise her younger sister Juliette. She studies music and performing arts since age 4, since age 6 she also goes to school, composes her own songs, practices singing 36 hours a week since age 3. Aside from that she is a master seamstress. I think she still sewes most of her "Stage Clothes" herself. Because of her high IQ she finished school this year in June. I don´t know how much my co-com-menters told you. She speaks 5 languages fluently and 2 just a bit. She also plays piano and guitar, that I know, about the flute and violin, I am not sure. A perfectionist, but patient with the not so gifted. How respected she is, you can see in that a seasoned, experienced conductor of a famous military band, asked a 11 year old for advise, musicaly. Dear lady, stay safe and healthy. Elmar from Germany.
The most pleasant and beautiful version of this song ever. I have never managed to listen to this song more than once from any singer though impressive enough. Angelina I can listen to on repeat with her soft velvet voice..🤗
Hi Gert, How you doing? Just a quick note to say that the chat I recorded with you was the most fun I had in Norway- apart from listening to Angelina. 'My little jukebox' and you going to LA to fetch her back to Norway! Priceless!! AP
@@thealanpapier thanks, Alan. I found it very pleasant too, and admire your work to promote Angelina. It was a great experiance to meet fellow angels, and to watch Angelina live. She is really becoming a great artist too, and not only a great singer. Nice to see for a proud "grandfather ". Hope we meet again some time .. Take care, and I am looking forward to yours and Pontus works..😉😊👍
@@gertwestblad9052 Pontus and I are nearly finished with a 20 minute documentary about the first 8 years of her life. It's 95% finished now so we hope to publish it before October.
@@thealanpapier yes, I saw you mentioned that in some comment. I am very much looking forward to it.. it will be the first in a row of documentaries about her, I guess.😁 I wonder if we will see that documentary Per Heimly said he was working on, from her visit to Norway.(?) Have you got some special permit, or material, from Angelinas family?
I'm sure you'll miss this comment since I'm so late here (sorry, duty called 😒), but I loved your AJ video here, just like all of your others! Very nice exclamation at 3:10! And you're right that so many artists really overdo it with the runs/riffs/melismas. Angelina somehow assiduously avoids doing that while *stlll* impressing the heck out of her listeners. Very much enjoy your reaction, Adrianna. Thanks so much!
I love watching your reaction! You show so much joy - which is the same feeling I get - you’re just delightful! Please keep reacting to Angelina! I’m subscribing!
No, not 8, she is probably just 7 years old, about 8 or 9 months before she auditioned for Norway's Got Talent. She's a one-in-a-billion natural. By the way, she is almost 18 now, with a birthday on January 10th 2024. This was recorded in her after-school music program studio. Among 4 or 5 other recordings there, I think this is the best, and probably the last. The engineer, probably her music teacher, said it was very good for a first take.
For those who have never seen her Whitney H. Tribute at 12, “I Have Nothing” W.H. was 29, in a big studio, 23 takes…which was quite normal, and with all the bells and whistles. Angelina, 2 takes. 🌸 ruclips.net/video/eTcvvO6B3Io/видео.html
I have never heard a female singer past or present that has Angelina's level of musical inteligence and genetic vocal gifts that combine to make every performance hypnotic and and full of surprises at the same time.
She has become the best all-round singer in the world, period! 16 years old. Thanks also to Republic Records and the team around her. And thanks to Angelina for letting us have old clips where you try all the time, and even play a chord wrong on the piano or guitar when you're practicing, and you choose to post it. It is what has made you the greatness you are today. No other artist does this today. Everything somehow becomes more real listening to you. Thanks for bringing real music back!
Im-peccable!
❤️❤️❤️❤️

Always a pleasure to listen to a reactor that appreciates every single note that this brilliant young artist gifts us all with.

What a beautiful and heartfelt reaction. I am so glad that Angelina gives us these moments.

My Funny Valentine is so good, the ear candy factor is off the charts.
... running vibrato... vibrating runs... velvet voice. The last note you can take home.
Don't you dare walk away from me..she dedicated it to her grandma at her latest concert in Kurbadhagen Norway 💯💕

Angelina breaks down our walls with the strength of her love and phenomenal vocal artistry. Wonderful!

She’s a God gift. A genius!!🤩🤩🤩

She could sing the phone book and it would have the same impact. She is truly one of a kind.
Oh and please do Rusty Shackleford’s video of her, «Love is a game»! It is wonderful
Angelina has performed ‘I Have Nothing’ three times (I’m grouping all the live versions together).
The original- ruclips.net/video/eTcvvO6B3Io/видео.html - has 14.5 million views and the live version - ruclips.net/video/AqtIVYFjapQ/видео.html - has 1.3 million views in less than 3 weeks, it is the Official version - ruclips.net/video/iX0g99jN26U/видео.html - has more than 200,000 views in three days.
Not only is the Official version the best it has the potential to vastly outstrip the other versions by the end of the year if not earlier.
I personally think the Official version is better than Whitney Houston’s version.
There is a new young lady in the music realm, her name is Sarah James. The two songs from AGT on RUclips are:
1. Her audition on AGT is a cover of Billie Eilish’s Lovely - ruclips.net/video/HZb-nym3HhA/видео.html
2. The second song is a cover of Elton John’s Rocket Man - ruclips.net/video/nNTEukCadL0/видео.html
I have a playlist - Sarah James Playlist by Terry M.
I am a long-time Angelina Jordan fan but I believe that Sarah James has the potential to be as good as Angelina.
So she is the best on planet no doubt only one thing I have to see her in concert what a performance such a hard song and she made it look so easy
Last time I was here I commented on your fabulous hair and I just noticed your instagram handle at the end of this video, haha brilliant 😁 You seem to have good ears for music and because of that I think you are in for a real treat with Angelina.

"Bang! Bang!" She does wonders with simplicity and innocence here. STUNNING.
(Written by Sonny Bono .. made famous by Nancy Sinatra.)
AND THEN ... "Summertime" .. magnificently dreamy and loaded with nostalgia .. her her vibrato suddenly shows in a way that makes no sense for an 8 year old. WOAH!! GORGEOUS!! .. I can only imagine half the audience is not breathing so they don't miss a second of this gorgeous George Gershwin song from "Porgy and Bess".
What do you mean English is not her first language?!
PLEASE WATCH ALL FOUR .. and get the video with all four on it AND translations so you can u understand the judges.
At her last concert on July 10th 2022, when Angelina told why she sings this song and dedicated it to her grandmother Mery Zamani ( her grandmother could not accompany Angelina on the trip to Norway ), I understand this song completely differently. Whenever I hear the line "Don't you dare walk away from me", I hear and see Angelina before my eyes, no matter who sings it. 💯 *AJ* 💯
Thank you for a wonderful reaction! She’s absolutely amazing!👌😀💫🙏❤️
Awesome reaction to an Awesome Artist who isn't afraid to share her mistakes! 1st it shows she is human, but also shows how she builds on them mistakes that make her The Master she is, God Bless!
Thank you for that last note. A lot of reactors start talking during the last note and they missed that.
Your admiration for Angelina is as classy as her voice. You have found your avenue to bliss. Keep with her and you will always get a lift in your day. Thank you for your reaction. 🎶
Speechless. She is fearless and one of the most beautiful humans ever. I love everything she does, everything.
She wanted to heal the world by singing. ❤️
Sweet reaction..thanks. I recommend that you react to Angelina's performance of "Cry Me a River" at the 2017 Proysenfestivalen in Norway. ( ruclips.net/video/Zr4INP8yhB0/видео.html )
Angelina's "lane" is jazz/blues and this performance is a classic. She performed 13 other songs that day (all great).
Just subscribed for our beautiful Angel, Angelina.
Your reaction is so genuine and priceless and she's only 16! Try her 'What A Difference it Makes' at 8 and 'Feeling Good' 10? at the same outdoor venue. Then there's her AGT goldern buzzer classics from Queen and Elton John. Also try her bluesy Etta James cover of 'I'd Rather Go Blind' or her covers of other classics from Sinatra, Amy Winehouse, Elvis, Michael Jackson, etc. Enjoy.
Everytime I hear this, it brings tears to my eyes.
Love your reaction. Angelina's version was sweet and powerful. She stirs the chemicals in your body and keep you wanting more. Her growth from when she sang this song 3 years ago is astonishing and I know she will continue to surprise us with more.
makes me want to cry, Ive been listening to her for the last 3 days, she started a 5, she's a natural, prodigy, from Norway
she is more & more phenomenal with each song. Her music is almost life -giving..... God bless her.
Your reaction was so real , your face so emotional and loving. Really appreciated it.....
I love your reaction. So heartfelt, AND THAT VOICE!!!
Thank you lovely! 😊 That voice indeed ! 😍
You are a bright smile in my day! Thank you for what you 'bring!' 🙂
“ The art that is the voice.”
Hi, and thank you for your fine reaction to Angelina. Angelina flipped the switch this year, took it to the next level. For the first time in this quality I heard Angelina in the song
- Suspicious Minds 16 years old - ruclips.net/video/RTbKhkceR00/видео.html - Elvis Presley Cover
Angelina has sung this song (I have nothing) before and her interpretation was much closer to Whitney Houston. The new arrangement is much more self-contained, yet still expresses the respect for Whitney that Angelina certainly has.
See her lower and higher range:
- How great thou art 13 years old - ruclips.net/video/WLAEy1LIHrc/видео.html - well known by Elvis
- I have nothing 12 years old - ruclips.net/video/eTcvvO6B3Io/видео.html - Whitney Houston cover
She is called "The Barefoot Princess with 1000 Voices". She is able to adapt her voice to her arrangements of the songs.
I believe that applies to her early years. There were many different genres and voices to be heard. Angelina is able to adapt her voice to her arrangement of the song.
Angelina has apparently found her style since this year, which she has shown again and again in recent years. But the vocal quality in the latest songs is tremendous.
However, you should also enjoy listening to her "old" songs that made her what she is now. And the development will continue.
- I’d rather go blind 12 years old - ruclips.net/video/pK8mMXQb3_I/видео.html - Angelina on a sofa testing a new microphone, Etta James cover
- Something's got a hold on me 11 years old - ruclips.net/video/TCc4Yjri3pc/видео.html - great gospel
Have a nice day and
Greetings from Germany
She may be the only singer out there that can dare to do this song.... And in a way that almost matches Whitney's beauty.
I love your reactions to Angelina and I subscribed right away when you reacted to I put a spell on you. And I am already keen on following your journey through Angelina´s videos. Thank you.
_"simple but effective"_
spot-on; I think that can be said for many of her performances.
Tears, goosebumps, shivers, tingling spine, more tears - Angelina wrings me dry like a wet sponge. A magnificent performance! BTW, there is another reactor named Candace Fontaine, who also reacts to Angelina. Your voice and hers sound so much alike, I was wondering if you two are related? Just curious. Thanks for following Angelina!
Thank you for a great reaction. 😀New subscriber here for more Angelina.😀
One more brand new subscriber here 😃. Thanks for the great reaction!
I love your reaction to Angelina's version of Whitney Houston's classic "I Have Nothing," paying tribute to Whitney with a beautiful rendition of her song.
Thank you so much! ❤️
WOW she sings as beutifull as she looks! RIDICOLOUS! Man Angel you always stun me!
🌀Her singing goes right to the soul 💕
She is no longer a talent, she is the master!
This is like.. “what if Whitney was taller and sounded richer in her low notes but is giving up nothing about the top of her range…”
Angelina and Billie are my current 2 favorite vocalists. Just love watching both perform.
IMO- Top male vocalist - Adam L
Top female vocalists - Angelina J..They can sing the phone book..Imagine a Collaboration
She’s an incredible phenomenon like Barbara Streisand and Celine Dion.
For me, it is her rich, full voice and because it is a lower register that can convey a darker, serious, mysteriousness that makes you pay attention. It is a woman's voice not the high pitched 'girls' voice that is common in popular music. She is a voice lover's dream.
yes. yes. yes.
!!!
thank you .. what a marvelous reaction!
Like your rxn. Notice your nerves were sparkling.
I don’t understand how AJ could prescribe music to our souls from so young age??
Killing me softly is another good song Angelina did in July 2022 ❤
Fantastica sua reaçao! Foi tão pura quanto a pureza da Angelina🙏! Percebemos que foi sincera e conseguiu passar a intensidade de sua emoção ao ouvi-la! Parabéns!
Lots of soul in this old soul, just start listening from her early age till now. She was singing at 2!!!!!!!!
Me to 75 I don’t understand I wish I was 20 years younger
I think very little is a god given talent, or even genetics. I think it is formative years, no one starts that young, no one gets that good in that short amount of time. But if you start that young, with the right kind of people around you and encouragement, maybe 10 years of professional experience at 16, in circumstances that and up just right those 10 years maybe mean a lot more than 10 years usually would. Her voice, her tone is all that can be confirmed a gift she received. IMO it is the only gift. The rest is an incredible girl and her village.
Exquisite. Like the reaction...thumbs up.
Angelina hai una voce incantevole.una musicalità mai sentita.
Angelina what voice I was in Norway three rows down when she sang that song in open air concert I feel away from USA to hear her well worth the trip
We love Angelina. She is amazing.
I always say she makes you feel the music.
How can Angelina sing Whitney Houston so well? She has been singing Whitney since 18 months old. See this YT video (ruclips.net/video/VJjG68Dfr-8/видео.html) with her singing Whitney (1:53 into this short video). At 18 months, she probably doesn't know the English words, but she does understand the depth of the music. Even now, she picks the songs that speak to her and often arranges them to bring out the soulful connections she feels speak to everyone. I hope you will continue your Angelina journey. A Subscriber
Lady, you are right, it is God given. Her voice, as some vocal experts explained, is so rich, deep and wonderful, because her neck is a tiny bit longer than usual. Her whole body, she is about 186 cm tall, works as a resonator. The other gift is in her realy high IQ (confirmed), sometimes a real curse for the parents. BUT, as her dad works all over the world, little Angelina had to help raise her younger sister Juliette. She studies music and performing arts since age 4, since age 6 she also goes to school, composes her own songs, practices singing 36 hours a week since age 3. Aside from that she is a master seamstress. I think she still sewes most of her "Stage Clothes" herself. Because of her high IQ she finished school this year in June. I don´t know how much my co-com-menters told you. She speaks 5 languages fluently and 2 just a bit. She also plays piano and guitar, that I know, about the flute and violin, I am not sure. A perfectionist, but patient with the not so gifted. How respected she is, you can see in that a seasoned, experienced conductor of a famous military band, asked a 11 year old for advise, musicaly. Dear lady, stay safe and healthy. Elmar from Germany.
Elmar She doesn't speak 5 languages fluently. Only Norwegian, Farsi and English.
Yes Elmar she speaks easily and well. :-)
@@tomwhite4736 Thanks Tom, stay safe. Elmar
oh that lingering end note,,, so good!
The most pleasant and beautiful version of this song ever. I have never managed to listen to this song more than once from any singer though impressive enough. Angelina I can listen to on repeat with her soft velvet voice..🤗
Hi Gert, How you doing? Just a quick note to say that the chat I recorded with you was the most fun I had in Norway- apart from listening to Angelina. 'My little jukebox' and you going to LA to fetch her back to Norway! Priceless!! AP
@@thealanpapier thanks, Alan. I found it very pleasant too, and admire your work to promote Angelina. It was a great experiance to meet fellow angels, and to watch Angelina live. She is really becoming a great artist too, and not only a great singer. Nice to see for a proud "grandfather ".
Hope we meet again some time ..
Take care, and I am looking forward to yours and Pontus works..😉😊👍
@@gertwestblad9052 Pontus and I are nearly finished with a 20 minute documentary about the first 8 years of her life. It's 95% finished now so we hope to publish it before October.
@@thealanpapier yes, I saw you mentioned that in some comment. I am very much looking forward to it.. it will be the first in a row of documentaries about her, I guess.😁
I wonder if we will see that documentary Per Heimly said he was working on, from her visit to Norway.(?)
Have you got some special permit, or material, from Angelinas family?
@@gertwestblad9052 If you want to zoom, we can watch it together. I only need your email address to send you an invite
That girl can sang. Wow
Damn, she's good!!!
I'm sure you'll miss this comment since I'm so late here (sorry, duty called 😒), but I loved your AJ video here, just like all of your others! Very nice exclamation at 3:10! And you're right that so many artists really overdo it with the runs/riffs/melismas. Angelina somehow assiduously avoids doing that while *stlll* impressing the heck out of her listeners. Very much enjoy your reaction, Adrianna. Thanks so much!
Thank you Owen! ❤️🙏🏽
@@SoulSessionSundays you’re very welcome!
Wow! Beautiful!
Angelina ⭐️🌟⭐️🌟⭐️
Beautiful ❤️❤️
I love watching your reaction! You show so much joy - which is the same feeling I get - you’re just delightful! Please keep reacting to Angelina! I’m subscribing!
Thank you so much! Her performances along with many others just bring me a level of joy that is beyond words! ❤️🙏🏽 welcome to the family! X
Angelina Jordan - ACAPELLA.... Billy Holiday - I'm a Fool to Want You - 2016
Check out the James Brown classic... It's a Man's World. OMG
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
You try react for Vanny Vabiola singer from Indonesia Miss...thks.
No, not 8, she is probably just 7 years old, about 8 or 9 months before she auditioned for Norway's Got Talent. She's a one-in-a-billion natural. By the way, she is almost 18 now, with a birthday on January 10th 2024. This was recorded in her after-school music program studio. Among 4 or 5 other recordings there, I think this is the best, and probably the last. The engineer, probably her music teacher, said it was very good for a first take.
"what do you say".
Practice, practice, practice, from an early age, practice, practice, and more practice...
I'm still waiting for More Angelina Jordan!!!!!!!!
For those who have never seen her Whitney H. Tribute at 12, “I Have Nothing” W.H. was 29, in a big studio, 23 takes…which was quite normal, and with all the bells and whistles. Angelina, 2 takes. 🌸
ruclips.net/video/eTcvvO6B3Io/видео.html
I have never heard a female singer past or present that has Angelina's level of musical inteligence and genetic vocal gifts that combine to make every performance hypnotic and and full of surprises at the same time.
Never heard of Eva Cassidy then..
Please watch Suspicious Minds it's incredible
