She's not from Earth. Odin, the God up in Viking Heaven (Valhalla) sent her to us. Previously, he sent us Aurora and I guess he felt it was time for another singer that will soothe us Earthlings and bring us immense joy. Thank you, 'O Man' !
I never knew anything about music but adored it and singers that moved me. Over my many years having listened to many singers Angelina is the only one I can't do without. It's an everyday thing with her, so thanks Nick once again for your reaction. Thumbs up sir.
In 60-70 years time, we can look back at Angelina`s career, and if I would had lived then, I would still rate this performance as one of her absolute finest. It`s just that good. I will love this until the end of time.

That guy is Egil Clausen, who played for her after NGT until she moved to LA. Here, as in many of her cover songs, you see her reading the lyrics on her ipad....sometimes on her lap and sometimes just off screen. In interviews with Egil Clausen (Oslo) and Iven Mendez (LA) they both said the sessions were never preplanned. They meet and discuss songs that one or the other like, choose one and then record it. The guitarist takes a few minutes to familiarize himself with the chords and Angelina downloads the lyrics. Most uploads are from their first take of the song, sometimes the second. Both interviews were conducted by Alan Papier and can be found on his RUclips channel. Angelina determines the speed and tempo of the songs and the guitarists follow her lead. Think about that for a minute....she produces all those spectacular and highly emotional songs that touch our hearts on the first or second time with the musician. The more I learn about this young genius, the more I respect and admire her.
You are so right! Except that Angelina performed with Egil even after her move to LA, the last time being in 2019 I think. During her Christmas concert she said that she would certainly be working with him again in the future!
@@fredneecher1746 Yes, there was a short piece of the song that they tried in 2019 at the time of the Brilliant minds concert in Sweden (I think), Angelina sang the beginning of the song, then couldn't remember the lyrics. I don't think that she had it in mind to perform in AGT Champions back then, but has changed her life since... She posted it on her Instagram channel, brought to RUclips by Rusty ruclips.net/video/w7lysXLIXrE/видео.html
The guitarist is not her father, but rather Egil Claussen, her regular guitarist in Norway from when she was 7-12. In an interview on Alan Papier's YT channel, he said these recording sessions are totally unplanned. They go back & forth with "Do you know this song, or that song." When they come up with one they both agree on, he reviews the cords while she looks up the lyrics on her i-pad & grandma Mery gets the videocam ready. Angelina says "Just follow me" & this is what you get, raw, unadulterated, pure, live music. He said it's almost always only 1 take, all the way through & it's magic. If there is a 2nd take, it's because he made a mistake. All of her home videos with him are the same, as are the ones with Ivan Mendez in LA, when she was 12 until she signed with Republic Records at 14. Who does that??? Angelina makes up these arrangements as she feels them, on the fly. WTF!!! As you said, this is an 11 yo kid! I've never seen anything like it before. Nice reaction & just keep them coming.
During Angelina's live stream Christmas special, one of the questions she was asked was if she would be doing anything more with Egil and she said yes. Definitely would be working with him again.
I hope Ivan joins her too, although it may be less likely than with Egil. Ivan admitted when Alan Papier interviewed him, that his career has taken him away from performing music. Of course, with his talent, music is in his blood, and I can see him brushing up for a special performance or two with Angelina, once her star has risen meteorically. I think her fan base would clamor for it (I know I would!). 😊
NoEgil is not her Dad but fantasticGuitar player, who played for hersfter Noerways Got talent until she wen’t to us they wer aFABULOUS pair together hope they get together.Frances from Scotland xx
Angelina Voice is almost like a medicine for the soul it’s soothing refreshing so much emotions sometimes I drop mirror saying I feel like I’ve been in a hot cup so relaxing
As I’ve said before she is a Phenomena. You get goosebumps when you listen to her sing. Did you notice she is reading the lyrics as she’s singing because she doesn’t really know the song. She does a few practice takes for a few minutes and then goes right in to these videos, that’s amazing.
she turns 16 on the 10th of this Month. Born January 10th 2006. We are all so lucky to get to watch her grow, and develop her Music. I hope she hit's the charts this year, she will be Grammy bound!
Younger people may not know this song, but it was a monster hit around 1970. The singer, Roberta Flack, gave us a style and cadence that was new and mesmerizing, and the lyrics were truly beautiful. What is so crazy is that 11 year old Angelina casually covers this iconic song in her own way. Yes, it’s Roberta Flack’s masterpiece, and like always Angelina pays genuine respect to the original, but she has the musicality and confidence to do it her own way-and it’s just beautiful and touching. Why am I surprised? Bohemian Rhapsody, California Dreamin, I’d Rather Go Blind, Yellow Brick Road… Untouchable, iconic songs that we now love all over again in a new way.
Not sure if you noticed but in some of her videos including this one she is literally reading the lyrics and then singing and yet she still pulls of off an amazing performance for any age.
Nick, you are right on with regard to her skills and her voice control. But one important thing to add. During her recent concert she played with world-renowned legendary musicians. One of them said to her that he thinks she is the best talent to come along in decades. He said there are a lot of good singers out there and she is one of them. But there is something that sets her apart from most and that is her ability to tell a story. He said you are a storyteller and only a few singers reach that level. That's what makes you special. The guitarist is Egil Clausen, not sure I have the spelling exactly correct. He played with her for dozens of songs during her earlier career.
Great reaction, I appreciate your honest analysis of this extraordinary young artist. Angelina has over 150 covers and other videos that she has recorded between the ages of 6 and 15 which is her current age. She won Norway's Got Talent at the age of 8 and has already established herself as an accomplished jazz artist. Her preferred genre is Jazz but she has done covers of about every genre you can name. What you will find in Angelina is a vocalist who doesn't do vocal gymnastics, she simply and beautifully interprets the story and meaning of the song and pours her soul into every performance. Angelina has sung all over the world for Nobel Laureates, heads of state, music icons, and other dignitaries. She has performed everywhere from small weddings of a few people to London's O2 stadium, and Seoul South Korea with 40,000 people. She performs at jazz festivals, conferences, and charity benefits. At the age of 15, she is a seasoned performer with 8 years of recording and performing. Many of her live performances when she was 10, 11, and 12 years old blow away even the original adult performers of the songs she sings. She is definitely worth your time to experience and get to know. She has covered Sinatra, Elvis, Aretha Franklin, Billie Holiday, Queen, Miley Cyrus, Patsy Cline, James Brown, Lana Del Rey, Norma Jones, Adele, Ella Fitzgerald, Amy Winehouse, Michael Jackson, Screamin Jay Hawkins, and many more.
PS - I thoroughly enjoy your reactions. I love how you appreciate Angelina and her talent. BTW, the reason she is so far ahead of her age is because she is categorized as a child prodigy, which has been evident from the beginning of her career
This song was written by Ewan MacColl in 1957 for Peggy Seeger and he performed it at every event when touring the UK. The song was recorded and performed by many Artists but it only made it big when Roberta Flack recorded it in 1972. Roberta Flack won a Grammy for this song as well as for the record of the year. The song also was number one on the HOT 100 single of the year chart. Here is Peggy Seeger version ruclips.net/video/cXYPb0rrwbA/видео.html Angelina Jordan can sing any song and does it more than justice. Thank you for another great reaction video.
Angelina challenging herself with an iconic song from a big name artist, accompanied only by a guitar (so very exposed vocally), never in a rush, add in lots of jazz effects, deliver a masterpiece..and thereby sweetly challenging others (regardless of age) to match it!
One of the aspects of Angelina that most reactors miss or at least they don't mention or don't catch is that in almost all her videos she's singing and reading the lyrics from her phone or paper and still interprets, conveys and communicates the emotions of every note and lyric while reading them. To me that sets her apart in a class by herself....just genius! What an artist!!
If you ever heard an Angel sing it would be hard to describe the beauty and depth of the experience , that is why it is impossible to truly explain Angelina's skill!! Another fabulous reaction.
Egil is Norwegian and has been playing for her since she was 6 or 7. Here they are in his studio. Notice that she was reading the lyrics and could still put that much emotion into the song. Most of the time they do this is in one take, according to two of her guitarists.
That is her Norway guitarist Egil Clausen who has done many covers with Angelina and has toured around the world with her. She mentioned at her recent Christmas concert that Egil will again accompany her on concerts and they will do more covers together. Egil has played for Angelina since she was 7.
The guitarist is Egil Claussen who played guitar for Angelina in Norway since she was about 8 years old and he even went on trips to other countries with Angelina and her family. Nick I loved it when, on one Angelina reaction, you wrote a comment under the video. I think that would be a great habit for you to get into for all artists. By posting a comment, you are helping the analytics for that artist and you are reminding your viewers that they should do the same (leaving a comment on the original video as well as your reaction video). Nick if you have any other way to help boost the analytics for both you and the artist, then please let me know as I think it is important and we know a lot of viewers don't post a comment or subscribe.
It kind of amazes me how she can be *so* friggin' good, and yet *not* be a perfectionist. This video is a prime illustration of that. As other commenters have already pointed out, both Egil, the guitarist here, and Ivan, the guitarist on "Stay" (for example), have said that these "live at home" covers are often quite spontaneous one-take affairs, with a second or third take usually only necessary if the guitarist messes up. Here, both Angelina _and_ Egil made mistakes (she accidentally jumped around between verses, repeating some lines and omitting others; he accidentally "muffled" a note that was supposed to ring out cleanly), but she decided to just "let it go" and not try to do additional takes until everything was perfect. Many of her videos where she's playing instruments are similarly imperfect. And almost all of those are cases where she could have done any number of takes, and/or practiced the songs as much as she wanted, to make them perfect. But she chose not to. That says a lot about her priorities. (When it comes to her singing, I can kind of understand it. Here, for example, she could easily say, "So what if I made mistakes? I still killed it." When it comes to her guitar and piano playing, though, it's very different. To put it bluntly, she is nowhere near as good an instrumentalist as she is a vocalist. But I have to admit, she seems to have gotten a lot better in the last couple of years. To what extent that's because she's actually gotten better, as opposed to simply being more careful about what she posts, I can't say for sure. But I suspect it's mainly due to actual improvement. Check out the totally effortless guitar playing on her "Killing Me Softly" TikTok, for example. [Coincidentally, another Roberta Flack song.])
🎯🎯🎯💎💎💎💎💎 As a musician myself it has ALWAYS struck me how amazing Angelina's timing is. Completely off the charts. In fact the only other person that I would compare her with timing wise is Frank himself. It has to be innate, you can't teach that. Everybody else is left with just trying to approach that delicate precision.. They just have it. Another gem reaction sir. ✌💖🎼
Great reaction Nick! Angelina admitted in an interview during her recent Christmas concert that no one in her family has any musical inclinations (although I believe her sister Juliette is becoming quite a talented dancer). As many have indicated, her guitarist is Egil Clausen (from Norway - I believe it is pronounced Egg-EEL). During her Christmas concert interview just over a week ago, she was asked if she had any plans to perform with Egil again, and she excitedly said yes... she hopes when she resumes touring that he will do some dates with her and even record a cover or two with him. This past year, Alan Papier (a super fan/reactor who has done many videos specifically about Angelina) brilliantly had the wonderful idea of interviewing two of her Angelina’s guitarists. Egil from Norway and Ivan Mendez, who she performed many covers with in LA. Both of these interviews are VERY fascinating and are the source of much of the information commenters share with the reactors. If you can find the time to view them they are well worth it (not as a reaction, but on your own “free” [🙄] time). I’ve left the link to the Egil Claussen interview below. Like all Norwegians he is very fluent in English. I hope you get a chance to watch it - I think you’ll enjoy it immensely. 😉👍 m.ruclips.net/video/x5wWxk5fYJ0/видео.html
Thanks for that great reaction to Angie again. As others have said, the guitarist is Egil Claussen from Norway & he's done sit in with other pro singer & artists. He did most of the stuff with Angie until around 12 when she came to LA in USA & then you see/hear her with Ivan Mendez & he's a pro too etc etc..She would still do things with Egil when she would go back to Norway to visit. Please react to Angie's rare & special arrangement of "Felling good" for Avicii. “Feeling Good” Avicii commercial for Volvo back in 2015 when Angie was 9. This is awesome. ruclips.net/video/S565hk5T7SA/видео.html This was done Nov-Dec 2015 about 6 months after "I put a spell on you" (you reacted to that one & was blown away from it.) You wont believe she did this too. But rest a sure Avicii say it was her. He was friends with her & the family. And her newer cover Angelina Jordan - Mercy (from The Hating Game Soundtrack) ruclips.net/video/7Mthm-9jECM/видео.html Released 12-9-21. a Duffy song.
Prodigy, that’s the word for Angelina! Well, one of the many superlatives available to us. Yes, you’re right, Roberta. When A put this out I listened for a while on a loop, and then went to Roberta’s - I think she would have been impressed with Angelina, just like you are. Btw I like your voice very much. The guitarist: Egil (g as in good) Clausen was brought in by the family during NGT. No musician in her family, but plenty of love for music and the arts, and the wherewithal and willingness to give her what she needed and wanted. She lucked out with her family!
Ms Roberta Flack wrote this song and has been covered by many an artist as it is hands down a classic. Love Angelina and your reaction young man keep up the great work! Stay safe and love to you and yours
This song was written by Ewan MacColl in 1957 for Peggy Seeger and he performed it at every event when touring the UK.

@@joea7293although I prefer Roberta’s version over the original, i also appreciate the original and like to give credit where it is due. Cheers and all the best in this new year.
Yes Danid I agree but rendered reading that she had written that song. Not making this as excuse but I'll use my age lol when you get past 60 as I am you kind of do slip revry once in a while. lol But I'm in total agreement with you and will start eating more veggies to clear up the fog lol
My friend, this is a perfect example of not liking a song (actually I hated it!) until I heard Angelina sing it. She made it beautiful and touching to a degree I actually like the song now!
Hi Nic, happy new year! - In her Christmas concert interview she said, being asked about Egil Clausen, that she's planning to do more recordings and live performances with him... ❤️
She takes a Roberta Flack classic and casually does it justice to the point where I feel this casual presentation as deeply, if not more, when you realize it's a young girl many of the listening public feel they actually have come to know personally.
If this performance weren't amazing enough (for an 11-year-old, or any age), note that Angelina was reading the lyrics on her iPad throughout (basically, sight-singing). In fact, this was likely the first (and perhaps only) time she sang this song. For more insight into how Angelina worked with her accompanists in these casual videos, see Alan Papier's interviews: 1) Egil Claussen (AJ's guitar accompanist while she was in Oslo, which includes this video) -- ruclips.net/video/x5wWxk5fYJ0/видео.html , and 2) Ivan Mendez (her accompanist after she moved to LA ) -- ruclips.net/video/2uQyt2T3ayE/видео.html Keep up the great reactions!
Great reaction and this was Egil Claussen, who plays guitar while she was in Norway, from age 6. When she moved to L.A., she started using Ivan Mendez until before her AGT performance because of school obligations. She had a Musical Dictionary in her Mother's Womb, and studied it back wards and forwards, it's mind blowing her capabilities since she was 6, and keeps getting better! Hope this New Year is better for you, God Bless!
I love Angelina's recordings in this particular setting with Egil (she did at least four of them). The acoustics for the guitar and Angelina's beautiful voice are breathtaking. Here are three others: Can't Help Falling In Love: ruclips.net/video/pBOoDXFdD70/видео.html Crazy: ruclips.net/video/juQ9FJcjSWk/видео.html Love Story (Where Do I Begin?): ruclips.net/video/-VvgHJKt5IY/видео.html
This is one of my favorite “recent” covers Angelina did with Egil. The video says it was in 2017. Do you guys know whether this was performed before or after her move to LA? In any event, it’s short and sweet, (only 1:07 long) recorded, I believe, during the Christmas season. 😊 “Magic Moments”: m.ruclips.net/video/YlOm58gsamE/видео.html
Thanks for another great reaction Nick, and thanks for the support and respect towards Angelina. The more you listen to her interpretations and know what lies behind this naturalness and uniqueness of her songs, the more the admiration increases for a kid / girl who is absolutely out of the ordinary. I love these simple, stripped-down reinterpretations of her. 💛 🧡 ❤️
I have followed AJ from the beginning, Norway's got talent. and if someone where to ask me what I thought about AJ and her genius ability to cover any song, any genre, and with any voice, I would tell them, that every 100 yrs. or so, God shows Us heathens how much He loves Us, and sends an Angel to restore Our faith in humanity.
I love videos like this. She is so young here. He voice and control is so mature. A person wonders how can she get better. Then you watch her current videos at the whopping age of 15 and you here a more full body richness that's stunning. And then you realize she's not done improving. Mindblowing!
Looks to me that she was reading the lyrics off her phone (on her knees). So this may have been one of the first times she had sung this song! Possibly the first with Egil. Wouldn't be the first time she made a "home video" that way. Kinda sets a new standard for prodigy, don't you think? Oh, and that guitarist, Egil? Not a family member. There's an interview of him somewhere where he speaks rather rapturously about accompanying her. Such an extraordinary talent, and voice, and person. A blessing simply to hear her. And at 11 years old too.
Guitarists is Egil Clausen he started working after NWGT He’s in a region guitarist studio performer they went on tour together around the world Angelina Many different countries Angelina has been in more platforms in different countries and sung so many songs before she’s in the out of the race school the most professional professionals at some other lifetime she’s been to Russia Germany Paris France
Listen dear I sent you a request and donation through Paypal. I'm having problems with paypal. I requested Angelina Jordans' "Above the water". Can you tell me if you recieved it. ??? The problem seemed to be with the message, so I'm sending it here. You will definitely love this one!!
Hey, Happy New Year and that LIST? Awful, regardless of our Angel not being on it. I love female singers and I have my top 5 that didn't even make it. The rankings were pretty bad. Anyways...as always, thank your for your knowledge and commentary. Always looking forward to your reactions, regardless of the artist. Oh Nic...let me add to what you were saying about her timing and that non-verbal communication going on between her and Egil. PATIENCE, especially for any young age. She's nailed that from day one.
I freaked out the other day Angelina was on the Radio !!!!!!!!! 107. Something here in lil Rhody New England. OMG I almost Blew a Stop sign. Lol. Angelina has a Thousand Voices as she Pays Homage to those of Yesteryear and Today and will be the Future. She is a Very Humble Young Lady. Her Voice is Liquid Gold!!! As she Sings she Reaches Your Soul to Float and Soothe Your Heart From all the Hatred and Chaos of the World. Love You Angelina Jordan and thank you For Creating this Devine Young Lady Lord.
They have a great bond together, have you watched titanium it's brill and she has a great time. The switch between child and professional is phenomenal.
I am so disappointed when people want to compare Angelina with others covering same songs. There are some great covers but different style and yes Anina Abdul kills Adele’s song but she 29 30 years old, People forget Angelina is barely 16. All the covers she did while she was just a child are unbelievable and better than most adults. I go crazy when people want to put them all together to sing. Are they crazy? The styles and singers won’t sound good together. This song at 11 wow. I love your reactions. Did you know when these 2 jam together he just asks her if she knows this or that song. The guitarist says they don’t do a practice run through.
Great reaction, Nick. I am one of your subscribers that listens to your reactions multiple times over. There is nothing more that I can say about Angelina, the living legend, that I haven’t articulated on already. I listen to her daily because she makes me feel better. Happy New Year to you and your family.
A lot of the videos with Angelina and Egil are done at his studio. He went on a world tour with her as well. Alan Papier has an interview with him. There's a video before this where Alan talks about the interview, then shows the unedited interview. He also interviews Ivan Mendez in another video. Here is the one with Egil ruclips.net/video/2o4PPwHl07k/видео.html
No he’s not her dad he’s Egil Clausen a brilliant guitarist who has played many times for Angelina they really work so well together sadly he’s in Norway 🇳🇴 and Angelina is now in LA I’d love to see them work together again but she did say if she gets the chance she will definitely work with him again Love 💕 from Denise in Yorkshire England 🏴👼👸🏻👍👏👏👏💕💕🥰👋
She is an old soul she feels what she feel! God given you know, amd HERE FROM DAY ONE GOING BAREFOOT AT EVERY PERFORMANCE YOU KNOW WHY SHE REFUSED TO WEAR SHOES WHILE DOING ANY PERFORMANCES?

Humble gorgeous yalented she work hard!
Not her Dad. This is a Norwegian guitarist she worked with her last year in Norway. You said the same thing about Ivan Mendez, the guitarist she worked with in LA. I think you'd like the interview with Ivan Mendez. Look up "The Angelina Jordan Story- Ivan Mendez Interview (LA guitarist)". You might be interested to note that all those videos were made in 1 or 2 takes.
I've never listened to this carefully until now where you are pointing out some things that she's doing. Do you think that she does her runs spontaneously or with some planning? I have always been curious about that. I like to believe that they just come naturally without any thought. With her extensive history of listening to many jazz songs and artists I think a lot of the runs are improvised on the run. Anyone else ever wonder about this? It's masterful however she does them. Ron from California USA
Honor to Roberta Flack who took this song and made it a moving masterpiece. In my opinion unattainable. Perhaps Angelina is the only singer who will be able to equalize it in a few years.
You noticed something I have seen her do many times as she communicates with her guitarist using her eyes I have heard other reactors say she is ahead of the beat or behind the beat when singing with her new pianist or with a orchestra and do you think it's because she is use to set the beat ,as a singer I would enjoy hearing your thoughts on this
Absolutely magical!!!!!
Miracle !!!!Incomparable!!!!
Don't touch it!!!!!!
Firstly she is reading the lyrics off her lap! AND she is sitting down and singing perfectly 🥰 It's all just too easy for her tbh...
Roberta Flack would be proud!
I LOVE THIS RENDITION!!!!!! This is like my lullaby I listen to before I go to sleep 💤 💜💜💜
Yes, she is soo talented...and soo cute here...
Angelina just proved she's an alien. She sings "I felt the Earth" (which is a planet) "so close to mine", which must be her planet.
She's not from Earth. Odin, the God up in Viking Heaven (Valhalla)
sent her to us. Previously, he sent us Aurora and I guess he felt it
was time for another singer that will soothe us Earthlings and bring
us immense joy. Thank you, 'O Man' !
Roberta Flack sang this haunting early 70’s , 73 I think, hit song.
Your reactions to Angelina highlight my days... Thanks!
Wow 😦 she sounds so much older. Her voice is so season for her age.
I never knew anything about music but adored it and singers that moved me. Over my many years having listened to many singers Angelina is the only one I can't do without. It's an everyday thing with her, so thanks Nick once again for your reaction. Thumbs up sir.
In 60-70 years time, we can look back at Angelina`s career, and if I would had lived then, I would still rate this performance as one of her absolute finest. It`s just that good. I will love this until the end of time.

That guy is Egil Clausen, who played for her after NGT until she moved to LA. Here, as in many of her cover songs, you see her reading the lyrics on her ipad....sometimes on her lap and sometimes just off screen. In interviews with Egil Clausen (Oslo) and Iven Mendez (LA) they both said the sessions were never preplanned. They meet and discuss songs that one or the other like, choose one and then record it. The guitarist takes a few minutes to familiarize himself with the chords and Angelina downloads the lyrics. Most uploads are from their first take of the song, sometimes the second. Both interviews were conducted by Alan Papier and can be found on his RUclips channel. Angelina determines the speed and tempo of the songs and the guitarists follow her lead. Think about that for a minute....she produces all those spectacular and highly emotional songs that touch our hearts on the first or second time with the musician. The more I learn about this young genius, the more I respect and admire her.
You are so right! Except that Angelina performed with Egil even after her move to LA, the last time being in 2019 I think. During her Christmas concert she said that she would certainly be working with him again in the future!
@@lesgray8709 I believe they worked together on her rehearsal for Bohemian Rhapsody. There's a video of that somewhere.
@@fredneecher1746 Yes, there was a short piece of the song that they tried in 2019 at the time of the Brilliant minds concert in Sweden (I think), Angelina sang the beginning of the song, then couldn't remember the lyrics. I don't think that she had it in mind to perform in AGT Champions back then, but has changed her life since...

The end is absolutely gorgeous and moving!
The guitarist is not her father, but rather Egil Claussen, her regular guitarist in Norway from when she was 7-12. In an interview on Alan Papier's YT channel, he said these recording sessions are totally unplanned. They go back & forth with "Do you know this song, or that song." When they come up with one they both agree on, he reviews the cords while she looks up the lyrics on her i-pad & grandma Mery gets the videocam ready. Angelina says "Just follow me" & this is what you get, raw, unadulterated, pure, live music. He said it's almost always only 1 take, all the way through & it's magic. If there is a 2nd take, it's because he made a mistake. All of her home videos with him are the same, as are the ones with Ivan Mendez in LA, when she was 12 until she signed with Republic Records at 14. Who does that??? Angelina makes up these arrangements as she feels them, on the fly. WTF!!! As you said, this is an 11 yo kid! I've never seen anything like it before. Nice reaction & just keep them coming.
During Angelina's live stream Christmas special, one of the questions she was asked was if she would be doing anything more with Egil and she said yes. Definitely would be working with him again.
@@gary-white- SOOO looking forward to that! Hopefully Ivan will be adding his magic somewhere in the future as well. :) Much love from Norway
I hope Ivan joins her too, although it may be less likely than with Egil. Ivan admitted when Alan Papier interviewed him, that his career has taken him away from performing music. Of course, with his talent, music is in his blood, and I can see him brushing up for a special performance or two with Angelina, once her star has risen meteorically. I think her fan base would clamor for it (I know I would!). 😊
@@peterhormell1511 I'd love to see that as well. They always had such great chemistry.
NoEgil is not her Dad but fantasticGuitar player, who played for hersfter Noerways Got talent until she wen’t to us they wer aFABULOUS pair together hope they get together.Frances from Scotland xx
It is so much control for a singer of any age regardless of the fact that AJ the "Unbelievable" is only 11.
Angelina Voice is almost like a medicine for the soul it’s soothing refreshing so much emotions sometimes I drop mirror saying I feel like I’ve been in a hot cup so relaxing
It's like the first time you hear her you're hooked. I just wonder why she's not a huge sensation on the big stage.
Another great reaction! I am so enjoying your journey with Angelina! See you next time.
First time hearing this youngster sing. Extraordinary.
As I’ve said before she is a Phenomena. You get goosebumps when you listen to her sing. Did you notice she is reading the lyrics as she’s singing because she doesn’t really know the song. She does a few practice takes for a few minutes and then goes right in to these videos, that’s amazing.
she turns 16 on the 10th of this Month. Born January 10th 2006.
We are all so lucky to get to watch her grow, and develop her Music.
I hope she hit's the charts this year, she will be Grammy bound!
Younger people may not know this song, but it was a monster hit around 1970. The singer, Roberta Flack, gave us a style and cadence that was new and mesmerizing, and the lyrics were truly beautiful. What is so crazy is that 11 year old Angelina casually covers this iconic song in her own way. Yes, it’s Roberta Flack’s masterpiece, and like always Angelina pays genuine respect to the original, but she has the musicality and confidence to do it her own way-and it’s just beautiful and touching. Why am I surprised? Bohemian Rhapsody, California Dreamin, I’d Rather Go Blind, Yellow Brick Road… Untouchable, iconic songs that we now love all over again in a new way.
Not sure if you noticed but in some of her videos including this one she is literally reading the lyrics and then singing and yet she still pulls of off an amazing performance for any age.
Loved this
Nick, you are right on with regard to her skills and her voice control. But one important thing to add. During her recent concert she played with world-renowned legendary musicians. One of them said to her that he thinks she is the best talent to come along in decades. He said there are a lot of good singers out there and she is one of them. But there is something that sets her apart from most and that is her ability to tell a story. He said you are a storyteller and only a few singers reach that level. That's what makes you special.
The guitarist is Egil Clausen, not sure I have the spelling exactly correct. He played with her for dozens of songs during her earlier career.
The guitarist is Egil Clausen, he played for her while she was in Norway.
I love this cover!
She’s a genius!
Waiting for more!!😍😍😍
Song this is Peggy Seeger Recorder first
👣🎶Angelina Voice is stunning at any age you’re going to be a She great singer
Great reaction, I appreciate your honest analysis of this extraordinary young artist. Angelina has over 150 covers and other videos that she has recorded between the ages of 6 and 15 which is her current age. She won Norway's Got Talent at the age of 8 and has already established herself as an accomplished jazz artist. Her preferred genre is Jazz but she has done covers of about every genre you can name. What you will find in Angelina is a vocalist who doesn't do vocal gymnastics, she simply and beautifully interprets the story and meaning of the song and pours her soul into every performance. Angelina has sung all over the world for Nobel Laureates, heads of state, music icons, and other dignitaries. She has performed everywhere from small weddings of a few people to London's O2 stadium, and Seoul South Korea with 40,000 people. She performs at jazz festivals, conferences, and charity benefits. At the age of 15, she is a seasoned performer with 8 years of recording and performing. Many of her live performances when she was 10, 11, and 12 years old blow away even the original adult performers of the songs she sings. She is definitely worth your time to experience and get to know. She has covered Sinatra, Elvis, Aretha Franklin, Billie Holiday, Queen, Miley Cyrus, Patsy Cline, James Brown, Lana Del Rey, Norma Jones, Adele, Ella Fitzgerald, Amy Winehouse, Michael Jackson, Screamin Jay Hawkins, and many more.
PS - I thoroughly enjoy your reactions. I love how you appreciate Angelina and her talent. BTW, the reason she is so far ahead of her age is because she is categorized as a child prodigy, which has been evident from the beginning of her career
This song was written by Ewan MacColl in 1957 for Peggy Seeger and he performed it at every event when touring the UK. The song was recorded and performed by many Artists but it only made it big when Roberta Flack recorded it in 1972. Roberta Flack won a Grammy for this song as well as for the record of the year. The song also was number one on the HOT 100 single of the year chart.
Here is Peggy Seeger version ruclips.net/video/cXYPb0rrwbA/видео.html
Angelina Jordan can sing any song and does it more than justice.
Thank you for another great reaction video.
Angelina challenging herself with an iconic song from a big name artist, accompanied only by a guitar (so very exposed vocally), never in a rush, add in lots of jazz effects, deliver a masterpiece..and thereby sweetly challenging others (regardless of age) to match it!
This song Angelina 12 year ago the motion sick person that song is outstanding
10 here
One of the aspects of Angelina that most reactors miss or at least they don't mention or don't catch is that in almost all her videos she's singing and reading the lyrics from her phone or paper and still interprets, conveys and communicates the emotions of every note and lyric while reading them. To me that sets her apart in a class by herself....just genius! What an artist!!
She not only does her own arrangements, she does them "on the fly" in real time with her first or second singing of a song.
If you ever heard an Angel sing it would be hard to describe the beauty and depth of the experience , that is why it is impossible to truly explain Angelina's skill!! Another fabulous reaction.
Egil is Norwegian and has been playing for her since she was 6 or 7. Here they are in his studio. Notice that she was reading the lyrics and could still put that much emotion into the song. Most of the time they do this is in one take, according to two of her guitarists.
NGT won Norway’s got talent 8 years old
That is her Norway guitarist Egil Clausen who has done many covers with Angelina and has toured around the world with her. She mentioned at her recent Christmas concert that Egil will again accompany her on concerts and they will do more covers together. Egil has played for Angelina since she was 7.
The guitarist is Egil Claussen who played guitar for Angelina in Norway since she was about 8 years old and he even went on trips to other countries with Angelina and her family.
Nick I loved it when, on one Angelina reaction, you wrote a comment under the video. I think that would be a great habit for you to get into for all artists. By posting a comment, you are helping the analytics for that artist and you are reminding your viewers that they should do the same (leaving a comment on the original video as well as your reaction video). Nick if you have any other way to help boost the analytics for both you and the artist, then please let me know as I think it is important and we know a lot of viewers don't post a comment or subscribe.
You can increase analytics by leaving more than one comment under each video.
It kind of amazes me how she can be *so* friggin' good, and yet *not* be a perfectionist. This video is a prime illustration of that. As other commenters have already pointed out, both Egil, the guitarist here, and Ivan, the guitarist on "Stay" (for example), have said that these "live at home" covers are often quite spontaneous one-take affairs, with a second or third take usually only necessary if the guitarist messes up. Here, both Angelina _and_ Egil made mistakes (she accidentally jumped around between verses, repeating some lines and omitting others; he accidentally "muffled" a note that was supposed to ring out cleanly), but she decided to just "let it go" and not try to do additional takes until everything was perfect. Many of her videos where she's playing instruments are similarly imperfect. And almost all of those are cases where she could have done any number of takes, and/or practiced the songs as much as she wanted, to make them perfect. But she chose not to. That says a lot about her priorities. (When it comes to her singing, I can kind of understand it. Here, for example, she could easily say, "So what if I made mistakes? I still killed it." When it comes to her guitar and piano playing, though, it's very different. To put it bluntly, she is nowhere near as good an instrumentalist as she is a vocalist. But I have to admit, she seems to have gotten a lot better in the last couple of years. To what extent that's because she's actually gotten better, as opposed to simply being more careful about what she posts, I can't say for sure. But I suspect it's mainly due to actual improvement. Check out the totally effortless guitar playing on her "Killing Me Softly" TikTok, for example. [Coincidentally, another Roberta Flack song.])
Huge talent and great rendition and from an eleven year old, simply fabulous.
Simply awe inspiring.
Angelina she just a great singer. Age hasn’t gotten to do with it a great singer
From what I've read below that makes this is so remarkable.
🎯🎯🎯💎💎💎💎💎
As a musician myself it has ALWAYS struck me how amazing Angelina's timing is. Completely off the charts.
In fact the only other person that I would compare her with timing wise is Frank himself. It has to be innate, you can't teach that. Everybody else is left with just trying to approach that delicate precision.. They just have it.
Another gem reaction sir.
✌💖🎼
Great reaction Nick! Angelina admitted in an interview during her recent Christmas concert that no one in her family has any musical inclinations (although I believe her sister Juliette is becoming quite a talented dancer).
As many have indicated, her guitarist is Egil Clausen (from Norway - I believe it is pronounced Egg-EEL).
During her Christmas concert interview just over a week ago, she was asked if she had any plans to perform with Egil again, and she excitedly said yes... she hopes when she resumes touring that he will do some dates with her and even record a cover or two with him.
This past year, Alan Papier (a super fan/reactor who has done many videos specifically about Angelina) brilliantly had the wonderful idea of interviewing two of her Angelina’s guitarists. Egil from Norway and Ivan Mendez, who she performed many covers with in LA. Both of these interviews are VERY fascinating and are the source of much of the information commenters share with the reactors.
If you can find the time to view them they are well worth it (not as a reaction, but on your own “free” [🙄] time).
I’ve left the link to the Egil Claussen interview below. Like all Norwegians he is very fluent in English. I hope you get a chance to watch it - I think you’ll enjoy it immensely. 😉👍
m.ruclips.net/video/x5wWxk5fYJ0/видео.html
BTW, the interview is about 28:00 minutes... a bit long, but VERY interesting. 😜
Thanks for that great reaction to Angie again. As others have said, the guitarist is Egil Claussen from Norway & he's done sit in with other pro singer & artists. He did most of the stuff with Angie until around 12 when she came to LA in USA & then you see/hear her with Ivan Mendez & he's a pro too etc etc..She would still do things with Egil when she would go back to Norway to visit. Please react to Angie's rare & special arrangement of "Felling good" for Avicii.
“Feeling Good” Avicii commercial for Volvo back in 2015 when Angie was 9. This is awesome.
ruclips.net/video/S565hk5T7SA/видео.html This was done Nov-Dec 2015 about 6 months after
"I put a spell on you" (you reacted to that one & was blown away from it.) You wont believe she did this too. But rest a sure Avicii say it was her. He was friends with her & the family.
And her newer cover Angelina Jordan - Mercy (from The Hating Game Soundtrack) ruclips.net/video/7Mthm-9jECM/видео.html Released 12-9-21. a Duffy song.
Prodigy, that’s the word for Angelina! Well, one of the many superlatives available to us. Yes, you’re right, Roberta. When A put this out I listened for a while on a loop, and then went to Roberta’s - I think she would have been impressed with Angelina, just like you are. Btw I like your voice very much.
The guitarist: Egil (g as in good) Clausen was brought in by the family during NGT. No musician in her family, but plenty of love for music and the arts, and the wherewithal and willingness to give her what she needed and wanted. She lucked out with her family!
Ms Roberta Flack wrote this song and has been covered by many an artist as it is hands down a classic. Love Angelina and your reaction young man keep up the great work! Stay safe and love to you and yours
This song was written by Ewan MacColl in 1957 for Peggy Seeger and he performed it at every event when touring the UK.

I stand corrected great catch. Good job
@@joea7293although I prefer Roberta’s version over the original, i also appreciate the original and like to give credit where it is due.
Cheers and all the best in this new year.
Yes Danid I agree but rendered reading that she had written that song. Not making this as excuse but I'll use my age lol when you get past 60 as I am you kind of do slip revry once in a while. lol But I'm in total agreement with you and will start eating more veggies to clear up the fog lol
Love you bruh. I could watch your Angelina reactions all day. 👍
My friend, this is a perfect example of not liking a song (actually I hated it!) until I heard Angelina sing it. She made it beautiful and touching to a degree I actually like the song now!
Love your comments!!
Hi Nic, happy new year! - In her Christmas concert interview she said, being asked about Egil Clausen, that she's planning to do more recordings and live performances with him... ❤️
She takes a Roberta Flack classic and casually does it justice to the
point where I feel this casual presentation as deeply, if not more, when
you realize it's a young girl many of the listening public feel they actually
have come to know personally.
she definitely has that breathiness thing down pat
If this performance weren't amazing enough (for an 11-year-old, or any age), note that Angelina was reading the lyrics on her iPad throughout (basically, sight-singing). In fact, this was likely the first (and perhaps only) time she sang this song. For more insight into how Angelina worked with her accompanists in these casual videos, see Alan Papier's interviews:
1) Egil Claussen (AJ's guitar accompanist while she was in Oslo, which includes this video) -- ruclips.net/video/x5wWxk5fYJ0/видео.html , and
2) Ivan Mendez (her accompanist after she moved to LA ) -- ruclips.net/video/2uQyt2T3ayE/видео.html
Keep up the great reactions!
Thank you for the links!
Great reaction and this was Egil Claussen, who plays guitar while she was in Norway, from age 6. When she moved to L.A., she started using Ivan Mendez until before her AGT performance because of school obligations. She had a Musical Dictionary in her Mother's Womb, and studied it back wards and forwards, it's mind blowing her capabilities since she was 6, and keeps getting better! Hope this New Year is better for you, God Bless!
Simplemente casi imposible, a esa edad 11 años, cómo maneja los tonos, tiempo, es increíble como interpreta la música, así nació es muy privilegiada
I love Angelina's recordings in this particular setting with Egil (she did at least four of them). The acoustics for the guitar and Angelina's beautiful voice are breathtaking.
Here are three others:

Love Story (Where Do I Begin?): ruclips.net/video/-VvgHJKt5IY/видео.html
Oh yes! These three are just amazing...
This is one of my favorite “recent” covers Angelina did with Egil. The video says it was in 2017. Do you guys know whether this was performed before or after her move to LA?
In any event, it’s short and sweet, (only 1:07 long) recorded, I believe, during the Christmas season. 😊

And she's reading it off her I-pad
It's absolutely amazing that she more than sings the lyrics, she understands the emotion of these songs. Her musical intellect is off the charts.
Thanks for another great reaction Nick, and thanks for the support and respect towards Angelina. The more you listen to her interpretations and know what lies behind this naturalness and uniqueness of her songs, the more the admiration increases for a kid / girl who is absolutely out of the ordinary. I love these simple, stripped-down reinterpretations of her. 💛 🧡 ❤️
Angelina is absolutely Amazing. She makes every song her own in such a good way.
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
I have followed AJ from the beginning, Norway's got talent. and if someone where to ask me what I thought about AJ and her genius ability to cover any song, any genre, and with any voice,
I would tell them, that every 100 yrs. or so, God shows Us heathens how much He loves Us, and sends an Angel to restore Our faith in humanity.
I love videos like this. She is so young here. He voice and control is so mature. A person wonders how can she get better. Then you watch her current videos at the whopping age of 15 and you here a more full body richness that's stunning. And then you realize she's not done improving. Mindblowing!
Phenomenal! Pleeeeeease keep her safe from addiction!
❤❤ Out of this world ❤❤❤AJ shines like a Diamond 💎
Goose bumps throughout the whole song. Remarkable how she goes in and out of to her mental space to read the lyrics on a tablet.
Looks to me that she was reading the lyrics off her phone (on her knees). So this may have been one of the first times she had sung this song! Possibly the first with Egil. Wouldn't be the first time she made a "home video" that way. Kinda sets a new standard for prodigy, don't you think? Oh, and that guitarist, Egil? Not a family member. There's an interview of him somewhere where he speaks rather rapturously about accompanying her. Such an extraordinary talent, and voice, and person. A blessing simply to hear her. And at 11 years old too.
Thanks for beautiful reaction. I hope Angelina sings more of these songs.
Guitarists is Egil Clausen he started working after NWGT He’s in a region guitarist studio performer they went on tour together around the world Angelina Many different countries Angelina has been in more platforms in different countries and sung so many songs before she’s in the out of the race school the most professional professionals at some other lifetime she’s been to Russia Germany Paris France
One of the most beautiful covers of "Angel"ina😍👸🙏❤️
Angelina Jordan is Prodigy she speaks three languages and plays five instruments she understands very well

Listen dear I sent you a request and donation through Paypal. I'm having problems with paypal. I requested Angelina Jordans'
"Above the water". Can you tell me if you recieved it. ??? The problem seemed to be with the message, so I'm sending it here. You will definitely love this one!!
Hey, Happy New Year and that LIST? Awful, regardless of our Angel not being on it. I love female singers and I have my top 5 that didn't even make it. The rankings were pretty bad.
Anyways...as always, thank your for your knowledge and commentary. Always looking forward to your reactions, regardless of the artist.
Oh Nic...let me add to what you were saying about her timing and that non-verbal communication going on between her and Egil. PATIENCE, especially for any young age. She's nailed that from day one.
BEAUTIFUL! Thanks for always letting the beauty come into the world!
Great reaction, thanks 😊
I freaked out the other day Angelina was on the Radio !!!!!!!!! 107. Something here in lil Rhody New England. OMG I almost Blew a Stop sign. Lol. Angelina has a Thousand Voices as she Pays Homage to those of Yesteryear and Today and will be the Future. She is a Very Humble Young Lady. Her Voice is Liquid Gold!!! As she Sings she Reaches Your Soul to Float and Soothe Your Heart From all the Hatred and Chaos of the World. Love You Angelina Jordan and thank you For Creating this Devine Young Lady Lord.

Congratulations on finishing work ! I know you can make this work and we’re all here to support you 💯
Beautiful ❤

They have a great bond together, have you watched titanium it's brill and she has a great time. The switch between child and professional is phenomenal.
Peggy Siger singer sang at first it was a bohemian gypsy song Roberta Flack picked it up and made it into a love song
I am so disappointed when people want to compare Angelina with others covering same songs. There are some great covers but different style and yes Anina Abdul kills Adele’s song but she 29 30 years old, People forget Angelina is barely 16. All the covers she did while she was just a child are unbelievable and better than most adults. I go crazy when people want to put them all together to sing. Are they crazy? The styles and singers won’t sound good together. This song at 11 wow. I love your reactions. Did you know when these 2 jam together he just asks her if she knows this or that song. The guitarist says they don’t do a practice run through.
Great reaction, Nick. I am one of your subscribers that listens to your reactions multiple times over. There is nothing more that I can say about Angelina, the living legend, that I haven’t articulated on already. I listen to her daily because she makes me feel better. Happy New Year to you and your family.
A lot of the videos with Angelina and Egil are done at his studio. He went on a world tour with her as well. Alan Papier has an interview with him. There's a video before this where Alan talks about the interview, then shows the unedited interview. He also interviews Ivan Mendez in another video. Here is the one with Egil ruclips.net/video/2o4PPwHl07k/видео.html
No he’s not her dad he’s Egil Clausen a brilliant guitarist who has played many times for Angelina they really work so well together sadly he’s in Norway 🇳🇴 and Angelina is now in LA I’d love to see them work together again but she did say if she gets the chance she will definitely work with him again Love 💕 from Denise in Yorkshire England 🏴👼👸🏻👍👏👏👏💕💕🥰👋
I forgot to mention the 1st time I heard this it was by Peggy Seeger (the sister of Pete Seeger) for whom it was written.
👍👍💙💙💙
She is an old soul she feels what she feel! God given you know, amd HERE FROM DAY ONE GOING BAREFOOT AT EVERY PERFORMANCE YOU KNOW WHY SHE REFUSED TO WEAR SHOES WHILE DOING ANY PERFORMANCES? AT A LITTLE GIRL AGE SHE TOLD HER PARENTS I WANT ALL THE KIDS WHO DONT HAVE SHOES OR VLOTHING OR FOOD YO KNOW I STAND WITH THEM AND THAT EVERY PENNY I MAKE FROM THESE PERFORMANCES ALMOST ALL OF IT IS GOING DIRECTLY TO SUPPLY CHILDREN WITH SHOES CLOTHES FOOD AND SHELTER I AM SO BLESSED AND GRATEFUL BUT AS LONG AS THERE ARE CHILDREN GOING WITHOUT SHOES AND FOOD I REFUSE TO WEAR MINE...AND I PROMISE I WILL GIVE EVERYTHING OF MYSELF TO DO WHAT IS RIGHT AND SHOULD NEVER BE HAPPENING IN THIS WORLD...WE SHOULD ALL BE AWARE OF EVERY BITE OF FOOD WE PUT TO OUR MOUTHES THERE ARE LITTLE KIDS AND BABIES CRYING OUT FOR FOOD, THIS IS MY MISSION THIS IS WHY I WORK SO HARD SO I CAN USE MY VOICE TO REACH AS MANY WHO WILL LISTEN...PLEASE BE KIND TO EVERYONE IN THIS WORLD! now, tell me to this day that girl wont wear shoes at any performances! Humble gorgeous yalented she work hard!
Not her Dad. This is a Norwegian guitarist she worked with her last year in Norway. You said the same thing about Ivan Mendez, the guitarist she worked with in LA. I think you'd like the interview with Ivan Mendez. Look up "The Angelina Jordan Story- Ivan Mendez Interview (LA guitarist)". You might be interested to note that all those videos were made in 1 or 2 takes.
i think it was an one shoot. she even don't know the lyrics because the reading them one her pad.
Roberta Flack (who is another one of my favs) sang this !
Peggy Seeger was the first singer boyfriend wrote it for her
She looks so young and has so much soul and control to her voice, as you said "For a kid". Woww. Is she Australian?

I've never listened to this carefully until now where you are pointing out some things that she's doing. Do you think that she does her runs spontaneously or with some planning? I have always been curious about that. I like to believe that they just come naturally without any thought. With her extensive history of listening to many jazz songs and artists I think a lot of the runs are improvised on the run. Anyone else ever wonder about this? It's masterful however she does them.
Ron from California USA
Honor to Roberta Flack who took this song and made it a moving masterpiece. In my opinion unattainable. Perhaps Angelina is the only singer who will be able to equalize it in a few years.
Why she doesn’t sing her own songs? Something original for her. She has an unbelievable voice!!!😱😱😱
You noticed something I have seen her do many times as she communicates with her guitarist using her eyes I have heard other reactors say she is ahead of the beat or behind the beat when singing with her new pianist or with a orchestra and do you think it's because she is use to set the beat ,as a singer I would enjoy hearing your thoughts on this
A child prodigy she speaks three languages English is not first language and play five instruments she understands perfectly well
