Loved all your reaction to our Angel so far👍👍🙏🙏💙💙 but u know what u are tougher than Simon Cowell 😀😀
Hahahaha! I feel like I can be with Angelina, because she’s 99.9% perfect! 😝
Yes, this the first time I recall Maunalee breaking out the clipboard for notes!
We have got to get this woman on the radio! I'm in Oklahoma City. 405-460-5104 (104.1) is a request line. Please call and request Million Miles by Angelina Jordan over and over until they play Angelina!
Funny! Except I never heard Simon say anything negative about Angelina!
@@musicwithmaunalee ,k
No you're not being dramatic - you're correct. She has so much ability which is continually growing. She's incredible for any age singer but at 14/15 she is just phenomenal. For me, this song is way past emotional and as AJ said "I hope you love this because it came from the heart". She loved her Grandfather so much and obviously it hit her hard when he passed. He will be smiling as he looks down on you Angelina, I can guarantee that! xxx
If she sets the new standard for the Music industry 90% of them are out of work. At her age to sing and wright like this, She is the new Queen of Music.
She wrote this song. I'm a musician and have written songs. This song is extremely well written.
Totally style. She probably speaks better English than most of us. It's not fair to compare her to Adele who is about twice Angelina's age. I prefer hearing Angelina every time.
Eva I completely agree with you about her English. What I don't agree with is your thinking it's unfair to compare her to Adele. This is why: ruclips.net/video/IXqpYgv4tBA/видео.html What do you think now?
@@103mrg Not sure what you are getting at. When I compare Angelina with Adele, Angelina wins every time. But I am not a "reactor". I think if you are reacting to Angelina's song Adele should have nothing to do with it. It is Angelina's song....not Adele's.
@@evalight9895 I wasn't referring to Angelina's song. It's that your post implied that because of Adele's age (and more experience), it wasn't fair to compare her to Angelina; that Angelina couldn't measure up against someone so accomplished. I sent the mashup to disprove that notion.
Sorry, I misunderstood. We are on the same page.
@@evalight9895 I kinda thought we were.
Wow. I really appreciate your comment on the current pop music because that’s exactly how I feel. We need authentic artists like Angelina Jordan and several other names you mentioned. They don’t need to do anything drastic to catch your eyes and ears. They can just sit there and sing to a microphone and we’ll loop their songs 100 times. 🙂
Nice to hear your high praise and thoughts of Angelina’s pure voice and song needing no embellishments to bring out praise and joy from us.
3:15 starts the review.
A young girl writes and sings a song for the Grandfather she lost this year, with a video her Artist Grandmother made with her; as she sings of an experience so many grandchildren are having in this year of 2020. For all those who will never sit on their Grandparents knee again.
Angelina has ripped my heart out so many times and afterwards I always feel better more alive. Its as if my body needs to experience these emotions now and again and boy this track does all this and more. Btw nice review.
So glad you did this one Maunalee! I was hoping you would get to it soon. It is a beautiful song written by Angelina about her grandpa, and the artwork by Angelina's grandmother is just perfect for it. I think it was a great debut single for her! Here is what Angelina said about it.....
"This song is dedicated to anyone who has lost a loved one. I wrote this song thinking about all the great memories I had with my grandpa and how much it hurts to lose someone. I hope this song finds a place in your heart, as it comes straight from mine."
Rusty, for some time many has felt her heart and soul with many songs and they not only hear but feels a part of her deep inside of them. She is not just a singer but much more.
I heard some of the artwork is also by Angelina.
Angelina's debut Singel under Republik Records produced by GRAMMY®AWARD hitmaker Stargate. The result is better than I ever hoped. The song completely reflects Angelina's talent, skill and feeling for music. I have the feeling that Stargate gave Angelina the opportunity to work freely according to her own style. I am convinced that Stargate is excited to work with Angelina.
✌️😷😷🇩🇪🇪🇺💯 *AJ* 💯
I'm giving her your 9.9 + my additional .1 = 10.0 for her!!! Angelina has a way of leaving her mark on your emotions when ever she sings. Happy, sad, high, or low, she makes you feel it. What she makes you feel doesn't end with the last note either. It takes a while to get over it and get yourself back to whatever normal is. Don't know about you, but this one left a BIG mark on me and I'll be playing it a lot.
One thing that might shape your opinion; she stated in an interview that she was in tears as she recorded it. That emotion really comes through in the song and her singing.
"This song is dedicated to anyone who has lost a loved one. I wrote this
song thinking about all the great memories I had with my grandpa and
how much it hurts to lose someone. I hope this song finds a place in
your heart, as it comes straight from mine. ."-Angelina Jordan
What a beautiful way for Angelina to start her new career experience!
I'm sure her grandfather is smiling at her from above!
Beautiful song and wonderful reaction!
Thank you Maunalee for this wonderful & honest reaction. She did write it here at 14. Thank you for download this single & helping support her art & music. . Angie & her Grandma did the art in the video. Stargate producer singer/songwriter Dakota posted on her instagram regarding the collaboration with Angie, said “This girls talent is freakin insane.”
Brilliant singing is emotion. Emotion is Angelina, Angelina is brilliance.
Thank you for putting Angelina up there with Adele,I know that's the ultimate compliment that you can give her from your perspective.Her versatility and creativity have made her music relevant and current on the music scene.She must have a hell of a team behind her also,to get this far at only 14 yrs of age.
Her team. Grandmother, Mom, and Uncle. Yes it’s one hell of a team. Angelina is the driving force. She is a magnet to musicians which would play for free if necessary
bernie ruclips.net/video/IXqpYgv4tBA/видео.html As Keith wrote above, Angelina passed Adele a couple of years ago,
Hi Maunalee, I 90% agree with you but I found this from americansongwriter.com who interview Angelina, ''Jordan felt that even while recording the song. “When I was in the booth, while I was singing, my tears were running,” she says. “To be honest, it was like a feeling of relief that all my feelings were written down and I felt relieved. “Million Miles” means a lot to me because it is relevant to these difficult times. I definitely want to share my love to everyone, and I hope that people can connect with it and relate to the story behind the song.” This might explain why some of her word sounds muffled to you, me as a 56 year old man with a few tears when hearing her words, I understood everything❤❤❤👍👍
I woke up this morning and watched this. I thought I was done crying but nope. Have been just too many loved ones lost over the past 4 years. Thanks Maunalee and please stay safe and healthy everyone.
Thank you for another great Angelina reaction! On November 6th, I cried all day for three reasons. First, because of the excitement over the release of Angelina's first single from Republic Records. Second, because of the sheer beauty of "Million Miles" - the music, the lyrics, the production quality and, most importantly, Angelina's astounding voice! Third, I went back to reminisce with some of my favorite reactors over the years (including you). Although I had viewed these reactions many, many times in the past, watching them now in light of this important milestone in Angelina's life and career was very emotional for me. I felt like a father paging through the family photo album after having just given his daughter away at her wedding. The poignant memories about Angelina's youth are now colored with the knowledge that she has grown up and taken a huge step in her life. While we will follow and support her in whatever the future holds, she will always be the little girl we have come to know and love. Could someone please pass the tissues??
how someone so young can make you feel so much with her gift, so incredible,
Thank you for reacting to this incredible song by Angelina. I came to your channel because of your reaction to her singing Bohemian Rhapsody. I watched how it moved you, as it did me. This song did the same but in a different and beautiful way, because she wrote the song herself. It’s great to see her make this first debut single into the business and instantly have a success. I can’t wait for more from her, but have this downloaded to enjoy until then. Anyone who has lost a loved one touches Angelina’s heart when they hear this. It doesn’t get any better than that. And, I agree with your comments about some music being released that let’s just say; makes one turn the channel. You’re great. Thanks again. I enjoy having your new reactions to listen to every day.🙏❤️
this song is a tribute to her grandfather who had passed away not too long ago. she wrote a beautiful song and sang this song even better. angel we heard the love in your voice... rest in peace to your granpa
Apparently your honest opinions matter a lot to me because I was nervous when I saw you were going to react to Angelina and her new song...whew I can breathe now ...lol. Great reaction and an amazing song❤️❤️❤️
Why is her songs not on the radio airways, but for sure this original should be.
Good honest reaction. Angelina speaks perfect English. The pronunciations she uses while she sings are stylization choices. I don’t know if you have listened to Goodbye Yellow Brick Road but she makes many of the stylizations in that song. It’s all about the vowels.
yes I agree 100%
I miss Angelina's little wave and, "Bye" at the end after taking you on an emotional roller-coaster.
Me toooooooo!
Well said!!
Angelina is in my opinion is already adele quality, probably even better. MHO
Just close your eyes and listen to it again and again and again...
Try re-listening with purposeful intention that in Angelina's genius, she has created and is singing a poem with rhyming vowel sounds at the ends of lines. The way she pronounces causes a more intentional rhyme. It's beautiful and artistic!
WOW WOW WOW. This confirms what I have always thought about Angelina, ....She is the best. Sitting here crying and I don't know why, but I like it. I have to tell you Maunalee.... Adele can't touch her. This song is magnificent.
A song is great when you feel that it leaves you punchdrunk - after listening. This is such a song!
I've never been first to comment. Guess it's a privilege cause I love your honest reactions.. Angelina is true to herself and certainly beautiful. In this is a tribute to her Japanese grandfather who had passed. But all of us feel soul connection through these lyrics which she wrote. This will be a hit for her. You will get so much more from others and I don't want to give misinformation. Thanks for this reaction. We are so proud of her, her personality, her philanthropy, her soul, and hope the best for her.
Thank you so much for watching! And I completely agree. She’s amazing!
Well worth the wait! Pulled my heart strings big time. Beautiful song for anyone who has lost a loved one. Especially in 2020 perfect for so many!
Maunalee, I think she wrote this song after her Grandfather died - hence the emotional lyrics. Angelina Jordan has so much talent we can barely measure it.
Wonderful performance and reaction.
I have to admit I miss seeing Angelina and her wave.
Also, every time I have listened to her interviews her pronunciation was spot on.
I am guessing she changes it when singing.
tbh i have problems understanding some of her words in songs but there thousands of singers out there who are english and its hard to understand them, however in this debut single i understood every heart felt word she sang, imo its brilliant
Agreed!!!
As many has said she pronounced those words purposely "wrong" way. It was her artistic choice. It's funny I understood everything even though English in not my first language.
Her pronunciation of words on this song are definitely a stylistic choice, and I love it.
one drum True that.... It's one of the hallmarks of her musical genius and is unmatched by any contemporary singer.
Here's a quote from her book "Mellom to hjerter" ("Between Two Hearts") about the shoeless girl who she gave her shoes to: "It was like there were stairs from the earth to the heavens. And I climb the stairs...."I stand between the heavens and the earth I stand between two hearts.” I believe she experiences a similar feeling when she thinks about her grandpa, and hence the ladder to the heavens in the lyric video. That video and Angelina and Grandma Mery’s artwork were a stroke of pure genius. Unlike many lyric videos it really expressed Angelina’s feelings, and enhanced the viewer’s experience with this emotionally beautiful song
Written at the age of six. What six year old feels and hears these thoughts in her mind
@@billweekley4077 A special person, who's appearance on this Earth may never be fully understood, but always treasured.
@@rotorhead-fy7nc
Can’t remember which one of us is older, but we have lived long enough to recognize her. I’ve studied long enough to understand she is an Avatar of the highest order. She has restored some of my hopes for humanity.
This isn't just a great song, great voice and magical animation - it's a great story not just about those who we have lost, but those who are out of reach just now. My grandson is only 6000 miles away, but it feels like one million miles- I will only be able to hold his hand again when covid is defeated ....
For Angelina the last image in the animation depicts her with the girl in her book (she gave her shoes to). Angelina never got to know her name, so is disconnected- but reminds of all of that special bond, each time she performs barefoot......
Good news for you..Pfizer have announced the release of their hugely successful vaccine..you may find you can see your grandson sooner than you thought!!
@@kevingood4644 thanks Kevin, he already feels little closer!
So that's who that girl on the last page is. I was wondering about that.
This is the best song I have heard in years, and in fact, she is definitely ahead of the rest of the mainstream crap that we are inundated with nowadays. You brought up pronunciation in certain words, I have heard the same words in other songs which she has sung in the correct English pronunciation so believe that she has done this deliberately for the effect and emotion that it brings to the song.
Mark You''re absolutely correct. Her pronunciation is all about stylistic choices.
I think Angelina deliberately bends the pronunciation for effect here, because she pronounces everything perfectly on some other songs.
My thoughts too. Sometimes the music just needs a vowel change. As a Brit I am very used to a wide range of pronunciations. So no probs for me.
Well said!!
Yes I agree. She did it deliberately.
@@TorpedoVOZ she does everything deliberately..utter genius.
What all of you said 😂
Thank you, in full agreement with you on Angelina and the others on the pleasure of listening and feelings.
Great reaction Maunalee...you are spot on that Angelina is light years ahead of so many of these so called "pop" stars and all their BS gimmicks. This young lady is the definition of Class and pure incredible talent at 14 years old. I have no doubt that she will stay true to her humble, kind persona which will put her in a place that true music lovers, talent lovers, will forever be her fans. In regards to pronunciation, we have all listened to Angelina 100's of times and her english is generally better than english speakers. I have to believe she took some vocal artistic latitude for effect on some of the word pronunciations.
Thanks a lot for another great reaction! I agree with everything you say. For me this is a song that grows on you for every time you here it
Great Performance Incredible song, Gifts Angelina thumbs Up🌹🎵🎶👍👍💛💛🙏🙏
Not a challenge to your 99.9, or your opinion Maunalee, but just my "opinion" on Angelia's English. To my ear, Angelina sounds 100% American when she speaks. When she sings, as countless vocal coaches and musicians have pointed out, Angelina is a master of bending vowels for melismatic effect and vocal enhancement. It's an absolute hallmark of her singing style. If we judged vocalists based on singing diction, there'd be no Dylan, no Springsteen, no Cocker, and no so many others that had a unique style of presentation without perfect diction. As I said, just MHO.
I got close to no knowledge of music, but find this pronunciation a bit distracting.
@@TomVestvik I'm sure you do, as will some others. I'm just a fan of how she enhances some vowels for melismatic purposes, as are many professional vocal coaches and other fans. Simply a matter of taste among her fans.
Great Scott!!! I speak "Southern." It has not left in 55 years, and, why should I want it to?
After reading the lyrics I have found it easy to follow .Also many jazz musicians use their voice more as an instrument where the sound is equally important as the intrinsic normal phonetics . So given her background it is not surprising that she improvises with phonetics.
rotorhead1942, I tried to make that point also, but you did a much better job. Thanks.
Manaulee, I would NOT take notes on the first time listening, because you will be thinking more about what to say rather than taking in the song and letting it hit your feelings... let your instinct capture the reaction, not your pencil. Then give it a second run where you try to express that instinctual reaction from the first time. And if you get a different reaction the second time then go at it a third time... this is one of those songs that embeds itself deeper in the soul the more you hear it. Remember that art is in the eyes (or ears as it were) of the beholder. It is more about what it makes you feel than what makes academic sense... impressionism would never meet the grade of the painting purists that want to capture what is seen to perfection... cubism does not adhere to natural forms, but to the fuzziness of how the images make you feel. In this case, you are right, Angelina does not always pronounce words perfectly, but we get the message, we get the intent and the message is perfectly clear... and despite the distortion in her pronunciation, the feeling of love and pain is absolutely clear... If I wanted a paint by the numbers, I would go to the dollar store... but I want art, so I go to the Louvre. What is great about the Mona Lisa is not that it was or was not a perfect portrait, because in that sense, it was not better than other portraits of the time... it was the way Da Vinci captured the that smile of naughtiness in her smile... you see the portrait and you can see in her eyes she is somewhere else thinking of something that makes her smile as if she got away with something. THAT is what made it the masterpiece it is. I am not sure who is maturing more, Angelina or our appreciation for good quality and meaningful music... Like you said, the music industry has embraced too much hate, sex and violence and Angelina, along with some of the upcoming artists like Aurora, like Dimash and yes Adele, are bringing us back to the music that brings joy and peace to the soul. Please go back to "reacting" to the song, not "Auditing" the song. This is not paint by the numbers where we measure greatness by how well the painter stayed within the lines. I always love listening to your "REACTIONS" and was waiting on pins and needles for it. Was a little taken aback that you introduced a pencil and paper to the equation. Feel the song, that is what evokes the reaction. Is it melodious, is it pleasant to the ear, does it evoke a smile or a tear. That is what art is about. I love ballroom dancing, but there is nothing like watching couple dancing free style base don how the music moves them. And even when they stumble, it is an opportunity to laugh and and reconnect to continue the dance because what is important is not the music, the audience or the steps, it is the flirting and connection, the feeling of how each other reacts to their partner... and when souls are aligned, the dance is beautiful.
Hear, hear! ❤️
Well said.
You have so enunciated my own thoughts to perfection!
Maunalee, you never felt this! I am so disappointed with you. Throw away the pencil and paper and just listen, feel and understand. You used to do this in the past but I suspect that you are trending toward commercialism. Let your emotions speak for you, not careful controlled analysis.
As this is a reply to someone else's comment I am also going to post this on it's own and hope that you will see it. Please consider it carefully.
Nice reaction and feedback Maunalee! Yes, this song was dedicated to her grandpa and also to those who have lost a loved one. I lost my mom in January and hearing this song brings back a lot of memories of her. When she sings, she takes me away from the real world for a few minutes and I just focus on her singing which is always mesmerizing to me. I'm going to keep on listening to this until she comes out with more because Angelina fans like myself and you are always wanting more from her. Keep up the great work!
You cannot judge her because you do not understand the words because the lyrical singers who sing in Italian cannot understand their own words but they are still DIVAS of the song
This is who Angelina is. Nothing fancy here, no vocal acrobatics, just Angelina singing her song with passion and genuine feeling rooted in life experience. This is the Angelina I’ve been waiting for. Hopefully she will continue down this road and become the artist whom everyone says she already is.
i understood every word..its just her singstyle, but a good review. fantastic lyrics.
Hahaha, her pronunciation of words/vowels are intentionally manipulated, for effect.
They don't need to "get better".
This woman is a fraud of a reactor.
zeus True that.
@@jayseaem She definitely tries to appear more musically knowledgeable than she actually is.
exactly
We have got to get this woman on the radio! I'm in Oklahoma City. 405-460-5104 (104.1) is a request line. Please call and request Million Miles by Angelina Jordan over and over until they play Angelina!
Every time I listen to angelina, I am like a tuning fork delicately tapped and humming in perfect pitch with everything around me. Life is in sync again
Maunalee, the way Angelina’s singing affects me is like she takes my face in her hands, looks into my eyes and pierces my mind and soul with her breath taking voice. When I listen to her sing I am completely immersed in the song and her interpretation of the lyrics. I must admit that every time I have heard Angelina sing a cover I actually paid attention and focused on the lyrics, many times for the first time, instead of just listening to the melody.
I do not remember being so completely captivated and swept up by a singer than I am with Angelina. She pulls us in and engulfs us with her stupendous talent, her voice, her pureness, her innocence, her personality and her humanity. She is a breath of fresh air coming from the music industry that has long been devoid of this immense level of exceptional and unique talent. Angelina came along at the right time. The world needs her in it.
This song bought tears to my heart. She is a quality singer with a gift for putting words into feelings through her music. Wonderful to hear her and also your comments. Thanks.
Hi Maunalee, kind agree with you her pronunciation of words is her accent my family came from Italy in 1970 and my older brother still has an accent
especially some words can't people listen to the song how remarkable is that at her age wrote this song to everyone that has lost someone, I think it's a n emotional song she should have had 10 that is what I think, but I respect your reaction. Thank you ❗💜
Elaine Angelina has no accent! Please read Liz Lessner's comment above.
Maunalee I'm happy that you heard the new song Angelina's, I loved your wonderful reaction, thank you very much.
It's definitely a good start with Republic, a sweet and intense song dedicated to the grandfather and the people who have lost someone, but also full of hope, with beautiful lyrics, especially for a 14 year old girl, and her voice ... always more fascinating and so from "Angelina".
Angelina and grandmother Mery, a beautiful story of an inspired family. I love her, she is simply amazing ❤️ ❤️
You can hear it a million times, I'm on the right track to do it, and I get excited every time ... and I love Grandma's drawings, they're so "right" for Angelina's voice and story. Angelina's slow advance on the steps towards the moon is of infinite sweetness, it's a beautiful portrait of her 🤗
The lyrics are hers, they are so "made in Angelina", they contain her sensitivity, her family, her affections and her love and make your soul cry thinking of someone you have lost.
Thank you Maunalee for your awesome and honest reaction! Angelina is already on that superb level of singing and understanding of music in general. She is a gift to our broken society and I can't wait to see and hear her next songs. This one is a masterpiece and I'm happy you did react to it. Until the next one and stay healthy and safe!
If you got chills ? You reflected & felt deeply. That in it self is 11.
But not what she said it's what you felt you can understand words and not feel any thing....goose bumps and tears is your soul responding to it's emotions ....love
Dear Maunalee, when she stood in the booth of the studio, recording, she was crying her eyes out (so she said) even when singing, because it helped her to lessen the sorrow. In the new video live version, she had come to grips with that. Not so very few "reactors" said that this song helped them to come to grips with their own loss. That was one of the goals of AJ when releasing it. Greeting from Germany. stay save and healthy!!!
So happy you reacted to this, I love it so much, and I love your reactions so super combination!
You are just spot on, Angelina is something more then just an artist or singer, her ability to move and touch people is a gift very few posses. Very much a gem in our music world.
This is a song where I am glad that I am a non make up wearing man. Otherwise I would be in front of the mirror re applying all that my tears had washed away.
Keep doing what you do so well...being you! I enjoy your open honesty. I’m a ‘nam vet ‘66-‘67 army draftee, but feel honored to have served my country. Praying for you husband‘s safety. Be awesome❣️🇺🇸🇺🇸
I am a new subscriber, I have watched most of your Angelina Jordans reaction videos. Been fallowing Angelina for some time now. All I can say as always there are no words for this barefoot princess. She was sent to us from above for a world that needs to see what family is all about, the support she has is amazing. Your reactions are great keep them coming!
how is she not a multi platinum recording artist by now
I think we need to remember that AJ is singing so she's putting her emotions, interpretation and style into every word she sings! That why we feel every word she sings! She wouldn't be the star she is if she sung just like she was having a chat with someone. I understood every word and loved it! Thanks for your reaction.
Much like Amy Winehouse used the passing of a loved one when she did 'Back To Black',
Angelina's grandfather's passing, brought forth her equally soulful response.
Thousand thank you for that reaction. Finally someone who talk about these young girls having to be adults too early and expoes them self so much. Enough is enough!! Lets take back the innocent and the beauty. And that the music is important, not wiggling your this and that. Im SO fed up with that! Lets be sisters and protect our daughters!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
You are not being dramatic ... I don't really know what it is about this girl, but she brings me to tears
Angelina has a fantastic bluesy and jazzy voice. It’s not one of my favorite songs but she sings it with so much emotion and dynamics. Thanks
Dearest Maunalee, I couldn't agree more with all you just said... Your words are my thoughts uttered.
This song I will play over and over and over and over and..... till my
I also agree with you and her. The song is about the loss of her Grandfather. Miss Maunalee wasn't sure. Another listener made comment about Angelina dosn't wave goodbye and giggles at the end of her song. Given the somber approach to this piece, I understand why not. I'm confident she will in the future
You need to do a reaction Angelina at age 16 My Funny Valentine her voice is absolutely unbelievable and the progress she has made in her voices unbelievable she will become an absolute Superstar
It's not a English class. she sounds perfect.
Her pronunciation is clear to me and English is my second language. I prepare her voice and singing than anybody else. Her voice and singing are marvelous beyond words. It's mind-blowing to me. It's a 10!
Angelina speaks English quite well. When she sings she speaks emotion ..better than almost anyone. This is a 10 for many reasons but an unappreciated reason is her willingness to, although on a new label and in a new stage of her life and career, put out an unbelievable anthem (not only to her grandfather) but to the world as we all weather this time we are in. A big serious song from a serious artist. I don't think AJ does fluff. In addition, who in her "shoes" would be confident enough to release like this without including herself in the video? In our visual world, Angelina boldly breaks all rules again.
I appreciate your reactions, your insight and firmness (not stubbornness) in stating your views. I think, though, you might have missed this one just slightly (by about 0.1) :-)
Simply fantastic!
You saying about her singing.
“It makes you feel thankful there’s music.”
This line is so poignant, especially in this day and age and especially this song.
While I do respect that you’re honest, I don’t see how this could be anything but a 10 despite the not understanding a word or two. The only reason I say that is because I misunderstood the lyric “Like an empty bubble to be thrown.”
I thought she said bottle.
Regardless, I really enjoyed your reaction and hope you have a stellar day.
Cheers from Australia 🦘🇦🇺, I get the waiting, I was still am that way with new performance and reactor’s it’s like hanging out with friends who share and interest or obsession for this mind boggling talent
As i listened to you describe how she doesn't swear or shake things, and who you compared her to, i was thinking that she will be famous and loved by all the same way Will Smith is. No theatrics, no falseness, just talent.
I just came back to this video and something caught me that I totally missed. 3:28. That smile of yours. It’s the moment you know that she’s got you. I could feel that smile radiate through my screen. Thank you for giving me that deep feel.
I love your reviews darling you tell the truth every time. I think that you are beautiful and so is your mother and your daughter God bless you and thank you for your honesty x
Hei,
Thank you for your "work" on this one from A.J.
I fully agree with you. Signing seams to be something completly affordless and natural for her - whatever styles she sings!.
- and for the third time I'll ask you to listen to "I'm still holding on to you" 👍👍
Continue to stay safe and healthy!.
Her video song Always On My Mind song by Willie Nelson shows a picture on the wall behind her of her grandfather. In the picture of her grandfather you see a strong resemblance to Angelina.
Yes her Persian grand mother's husband who was Japanese.
A liberating tear on the cheeks of humanity. ART!
BY the way Maunalee, I have never seen you show your goosebumps as much as you do with Angelina... even Dimash. It may be just me, but go back and look... so while she may not always be perfect, she almost always makes you break out in goosies.
I have watched many of your Angelina Jordan reactions and I always agree with everything you say about her. This time I cannot for the simple reason for such a young girl with such great phenomenal talent to talk about her accent I think it’s part of her character and I would also add that there I are many good singers where we can’t always catch every word and sometimes we have to listen to it a few times. I just think the overall package with this song performance production the words everything was just too amazing to make any criticism
Lydia Angelina has been speaking fluent English, without accent since she is 7 years old. Read Liz Lessner's comment above and my response to it.
Good lord, her lyrics were extremely clear from the very first I heard this. I'm not sure if your equipment needs an overhaul. You gave her a 10 for the singing and a 9.9 suggesting that the lyrics were a 9.8. The lyrics are the REASON for the song. I think the 9.8 is the score for our ability to understand the lyrics.
You are so right! She is so refreshing compared to so many other people.
She is absolutely crazy amazing
❤️ your reaction and Angelina’s song 👍😊
Such a great explanination of Angelina it's why I come here
Interested in you lyrics clarity comment. I am sure it is intentional. She can be absolutely crystal clear when she wants to be. Listen closely to the first "I know that I'm never alone" in each chorus. Is it me, or does she actually sing "I know that I'll never atone" and gradually morph the word sounds in each repeat to a very much clearer "never alone" at the last? Makes some wierd sense along with the "I'll never regret what I do" line in the grandfather passing - Always On My Mind context, where she was clearly expressing some guilt. Oh, and by the way, Paul is dead :-)
A musical prodigy, Angelina Jordan sang for the first time at barely a year old, and she never stopped.
The Los Angeles-based 14-year-old singer and songwriter amplified her voice around the globe, racking up over half-a-billion RUclips views, just shy of 2 billion Facebook views, and praise from Time, CNN, The BBC, and People. Along the way, she performed for world leaders at some of the most influential events in Europe, appeared on European and North American television, and quietly enraptured a growing fan base.
In 2020, she brings a soulful signature sound to life with her Republic Records debut.
The breadth of Angelina’s soulful and deep alto vocal delivery showcases a rare class of musical aptitude that you would attribute to an old soul, and legendary talent, well beyond her years.
“I feel like I’ve lived many years more than my age. I feel like music found me. I want people to get connected to my music and my lyrics and to share something special with the love I have for music."
Angelina went from belting out Whitney Houston’s “I Will Always Love You” to immersing herself in jazz at five-years-old. She discovered Ella Fitzgerald, Frank Sinatra, and Louis Armstrong by combing jazz playlists across RUclips. At eight-years-old, she won Norway’s Got Talent with a viral rendition of Billie Holiday’s “Gloomy Sunday.” Labels and producers feverishly sought her out, but she already possessed a clear picture of what her path would be.
Taking her time, she opted to carefully hone her voice through countless hours of practice, gigs, and writing.
“It was really great, but I knew I wanted something bigger,” she admits. “I didn’t want to jump into it until I felt I was ready.”
She got “ready” through a series of historic performances. She graced the stage of the 2014 Nobel Peace Prize Ceremony and delivered an emotionally charged rendition of “What A Wonderful World.” A year later, she wowed an audience at Brilliant Minds in Stockholm. Touching down in Seoul during 2017, she joined a powerhouse bill alongside PSY and Norah Jones in front of 40,000 people at Muse In City Festival. Quincy Jones personally invited her to perform at his 85th birthday at London’s O2 Arena.
Every time she took the stage, she was notably barefoot, which remains one of her signatures thus far.
“A long time ago, I was traveling with my family, and I met a young homeless girl with no shoes,” she recalls. “She was barefoot, so I gave her my shoes because I really wanted to help her. Today, I sing barefoot as a reminder of all the kids in the world who need help and support.”
Along the way, GRAMMY® Award-winning production duo Stargate [Beyoncé, Sam Smith, Rihanna] reached out, and they initiated a fervent creative partnership together. She continued to write lyrics, compose on piano and guitar, and record. Catching the attention of Republic Records, she inked a deal with the label in 2020.
Now, she formally introduces herself on the single “Million Miles.” With lyrics exclusively penned by Angelina, her robust delivery sails over sparse piano on the verses as the track builds towards a sweeping refrain, “We’re a million miles apart. It’s pulling my heart."
“Million Miles” is about losing someone you really love,” she explains. “This song is very personal to me, because I had never felt the feeling of losing someone before I wrote this.”
With more music on the horizon, there is more of Angelina’s captivating voice and songwriting in store.
“I hope you feel connected to the music and the stories behind the songs,” she leaves off. “Love is the most powerful thing though. That’s the message.”

She is norwegian, swedish, persian, japanese.
English is her third (!) language.
But she speaks like 4 languages. Correct me if i'm wrong, Angelina fans.
Thank you for your honest opinion, you always tell it like you see it and we appreciate it. And I agree with you totally. I already bought it :)
Angelina has 3 video versions of this song. One - she is in a subdued setting. The other has clips that include a child with an older man.
It is a tribute to the passing of her grandfather. Do a reaction to You Were Always On My Mind. You won't regret it.
I really like watching your reviews. You are entertaining and your kids are really cute.
First, I really appreciate your reaction. While I have challenged your criteria in the past, it is your reaction, not mine. Comments: (1) I don't think her choice of inflections in the lyrics has anything to do with her language skills. I think they are entirely due to her artistic license. There is meaning in how she phrases the lyrics. Not uncommon in her "native" jazz. (2) I would also not score this release a 10, because I think better is yet to come. But this was an awesome first release. Stay safe. Thanks.
