Subscribed. Angelina is awesome! I like your channel. May I suggest a reaction to BABYMETAL. Their music has a positive and uplifting message. They have a fun and awesome performance: BABYMETAL - PA PA YA!! (feat. F.HERO) (OFFICIAL) Or: MAYA【Live Blu-ray/DVD「BABYMETAL BEGINS - THE OTHER ONE -」"BLACK NIGHT"】 🖖 ❤
So nice to have an SA reactor. Good on You, great reaction. This floors Me every time I here it. That voice and Her own arrangement at 9 Is just amazing. From a fellow South African.
Your knowledge of Mr. Hawkins in very interesting. Your reaction was the funniest. Your educated understanding of music and this song is rare. You shared the fullest appreciation of this I have seen. Thank you 🙏, I really appreciate your reaction.
Yet another one whom Angelina has put a spell on. I just love it. 😀 I very much enjoyed your reaction: so much knowledge, perception, analysis and, above all that, empathy and sensitivity... Truly remarkable. Angelina wrote the entire arrangement for this song at that age. Her first recording goes back to when she was 1 1/2 years old -- a very brief one, admittedly, but still... Then the next one I know of was in a studio with Angelina being 6 yo, performing "I who have nothing" and filmed by her grandma. You simply need to listen to the four performances (in chronological order) she gave at "Norway's got Talent". This contest started when she was 7 and came to a conclusion when she was 8. You can literally watch her vocal and personal (and dental 🙃) evolution during this stage of her life -- quite fascinating. 'Truly looking forward to your next reactions! All best from Germany
What a terrific reaction and analysis of this young person’s incredible talent! I really appreciate your knowledge & reaction and look forward to your future reactions to Angelina Jordan.
What a superb reaction! I really enjoyed this even though I have heard Angelina sing this song so many times. Regarding your comments about learning from the greats even if you can't sing like them, Angelina was inspired by Billie Holiday, and if you listen to her rendering of I'm A Fool To Want You at the age of eleven I think you will agree she was already in a similar class. Today she is in a class of her own. I have subscribed and will be following your Angelina journey keenly.
I would do 2 tracks of reactions. Using Rusty Shackelford's playlist 'Through the years.' 100 + videos from 6 yrs to 17 today. 1st From 6 yrs old onward and upward. Followed by all her performances on Norway's Got Talent each one individually with closed caption. Speaking Norwegian. After that Fan favorites going forward from there. You don't have to do everyone. Her fans will know which one is most important for you next step. 2nd I would start with her recent performances starting with "Suspicious Minds' my first choice or Million Miles her first Release from Republic Records age 14 thru today at 17. There are about a dozen or more so you can do every one of them. And she is adding that frequently in recent Angelina's Journey. When you are caught up with her recent releases you can work your way backwards until you meet in the middle and then you can go back and start going through the ones you missed one at a time. 🔥🔥🔥♥👣

I envy your journey, the amazement that comes with the first listen of her some 200 recordings. For all of us, she is such a joy, and her family only makes it better. Angelina is surrounded with love--family, friends, fans, all of it and lot's of love.
And, at the age of 9, Angelina made her own arrangement based on his original. I really, really appreciate your analysis of this song and singer and love the knowledge you share, and how inspirational your reaction is. I need to go to sleep, I'm not getting my words out correctly. Big hug to you and welcome to Angelina Jordan's journey. She has amazing lung capacity and diaphragm strength. Many "videos" available for angels are thanks to the persistence of her maternal grandmother, Mery Zamani, who was herself a child prodigy, though not in music. A lot of them are spontaneous first-take sessions, practice, rehearsals, as well as performances. There are some good public performance videos in the register, also. I'm sure the angels who have been around longer than I have will fill you in. I'm so glad to find a reactor equal to the challenge of Angelina Jordan. She is, indeed, a Master and an incredible heart-full human being. Grandma Ellen, out.
I watched every second of this video and of course subscribed to your channel, I've been craving a GOOD new reactor that knows what he's talking about. Thank you! And I think since you want to start in chronological order you should start with "I who have nothing" age 6.
❤ You get her.. welcome 😊 When Angelina enters the booth she looks up, just communing with SJH, respectful. She does the same thing with Billie Holiday when singing IAFTWY, touching her flower crown in tribute ❤
You're very welcome! It's a unique and wonderful experience to witness someone's first-time reaction to a powerful and moving performance, and I'm glad I could capture and share that moment with you. The beauty of music lies in its ability to evoke emotions and create connections, and it's always a pleasure to be a part of that shared experience. If you have any more recommendations or if there's anything else you'd like to share or discuss, feel free to let me know. I'm here to chat and appreciate the beauty of music with you! 🎶✨
The earliest recorded performance of Angelina singing is when she was eighteen months old. She is sitting in her crib, microphone in hand, and covering a Whitney Huston song. The most incredible aspect of her performance is the fact that she is a Norwegian citizen, singing in English at a time when the vast majority of eighteen month old children are just beginning to speak there first words.
Excellent reaction/analysis of this musical prodigy, the best one I've seen in a while. I've been addicted to her music for 6 years now & she's the best I've seen in my 76 years. I'm well aware of all the wonderful vocalists you mentioned & they are truly Masterclass level vocalists, but there is just something that Angelina does to me that the others don't. I still haven't figured it out yet, but she has a calming effect on me like no one else ever has.
Thank you so much for your incredibly kind words! It's truly heartwarming to hear about your deep connection to Angelina Jordan's music. It's remarkable how music, and in this case, Angelina's performances, can have such a profound and calming effect on individuals. Her ability to evoke such emotions is a testament to her exceptional talent and the power of her artistry. Music has a unique way of resonating with each person, and it sounds like Angelina's performances hold a special place in your heart. It's wonderful that you've found such comfort and joy in her music for the past six years. If there's anything specific you'd like to share about your favorite Angelina Jordan performances or if you have any questions, feel free to let me know. I'm here to chat and appreciate the beauty of music with you! 🎶✨
All of Angelina's songs in chronological order?!?! Dear God! You'd die of old age! Angelina sings. In the house, in the shower, in the car, on the street, in the parking garage (she could put together an album of Tik Tok songs from the car park) She sings everywhere. Try this, Her favorite song is "Fly Me to the Moon". You can track her growing up with that song, renditions exist from age 8 to now at 17. Also Whitney Houston songs, the earliest one of those Angelina was one and one half. As for other singers equal to the ones you mentioned (can you imagine a Christmas choir with that bunch? Wow!) Aurora. Aurora Aksnes from Drange village in the Os district of Norway. She is a massive superstar that headlines music festivals with 50,000 or more people at them, and there's a reason for it. She is, quite literally, a fairy from the Land of Oz👣
Thanks for another great Angelina reaction, Carl. I was going to say that her musical IQ is off the charts, but you stole my line! Angelina is the modern Mozart.
I, too have been calling Angelina a musical genius. You too Carl, are a genius also. Your description of the mechanics of the singing is wonderful. All of Angelina's videos are wonderful. Enjoy your listening!
I'm not even a minute into your reaction/analysis, and I'm already wanting the next one you do to be her live rendition of "Feeling Good" on a charity-related TV special called _The Stream Gir Tilbake_ at age 10 (found on her Official channel). It's more or less midway between the two you've already heard, in terms of both her vocal maturity and the style/feeling of the song. Like "Bohemian Rhapsody", it was performed live in front of an audience, but unlike that one, it was (AFAICT, based on a couple of articles promoting the show) actually _broadcast_ live.
Thank you so much for the specific recommendation! I'm thrilled to hear that you're enjoying the current reaction/analysis, and I appreciate your enthusiasm for the next one. "Feeling Good" at age 10 during The Stream Gir Tilbake charity TV special sounds like an incredible performance, and I'm looking forward to experiencing it in the next video. Your detailed insight into the context of the performance adds an extra layer of anticipation, and it's fantastic to hear about the live broadcast aspect. I'll make sure to prioritize this suggestion for the next reaction/analysis. Thank you for sharing your excitement and for being such an engaged member of the Angelina Jordan community! 🌟🎤
This young lady is special. I appreciate you recognizing her tribute to Jay Hawkins, many miss that attribute. She loves the classics and totally honors them.
Angelina was 9 years old in this performance - Her nationality is Norwegian but is fluent in English even at this age - This song was not arranged for her - she wrote the vocal arrangement based on listening to the original Screamin' Jay Hawkins version and communicated to the band how she wanted it to be played - in fact, at the beginning of the video you see Angelina writing down some last-minute changes and it is read by the bandleader. You also notice that her own handwritten notes are on the music stand in front of her as she sings. For more insight into how Angelina works, here is a rehearsal video with some of the same band members at the same age (9 yrs old) - You will see that she is aware of what each musician is doing and communicates to them what she wants to do. The first thing she says is that she wants to start, followed by her saying she wants to start over, later she tells the pianist that the key is too low and that she wants to raise it a half-tone, then at the end of the song she changes the ending on the fly. The spoken language is Norwegian: ruclips.net/video/80f3t3dmBbk/видео.html
Lol, the moment someone realizes who and what Angelina is. It never gets old, lol. Especially when the react comes from someone who really knows music and voice.
Screaming J….Jordan Astar! Yep she did that. With all the skills of a grown southern Miss. I’d like to see you catch Angelina with her 1st five years 6 thru 10. Regardless,Angelina will give you endless material to keep that beautiful professional mind of yours busy for a month of sundays 😊 Suggest her latest gems don’t miss My funny valentine Suspicious mind All I ask..Adele Go easy on me… also Adele Million miles…an original dedication to her maternal grandfather. ❤❤❤😊
This was Angelina's arrangement. You've seen her making some last minute changes to which the conductor smiled. The video was shot by her grandmother from outside the recording studio. So they didn't really change the location, but Angelina did the first and last parts in a recording booth, and in the middle she was with the band. As for the list from age 9 onwards, I can give you hints as you look up her cover channel and you make your pick: If you see her with a blond guitarist or the sign TV in a corner, it means she was still in Norway and under 12. She also sang in public (something's got a hold on me at age 10 to 12 (It's a man's world : James Brown cover). At 12, Angelina moved with her family to the US because she was told there was nothing else they could teach her iin norway that she didn't already know. All the videos you will see are when she was over 12 y-o. Recommendations: Feeling Good on TV 2 (10-y-o), It's a man's world shot by a fan on smartphone, Stay (Rihanna), Born to die (Lana Del Rey), Always on my mind (Elvis), I have nothing (Withney Houston), Shield (original at 12), Million miles (original), You make me feel so young (F. Sinatra), and a couple of hundred songs as well. Enjoy!
What is your source? The entire video was shot by filmmaker Per Heimly - Grandmother Mery did not shoot any part of this specific video that I am aware of.
A barefoot princess with a hypnotic voice. Born Angelina Jordan Astar on January 10, 2006 in Oslo, Norway to her Norwegian mother, Sara Astar and her Swedish father, Gerry Christian Slattman. Angelina started singing around 18 months of age, after listening to Whitney Houston on RUclips. She quickly became obsessed with listening to music videos and her maternal grandmother, Mery Zamani got Angelina interested in classic jazz. Mery Zamani is Iranian and was a prodigy as an artist and poet while growing up in Iran. Angelina attended the Oslo Waldorf School and participated in the Oslo School of Music and Performing Arts after-school program, where starting around age 4, she had training in music but no vocal training. Her teachers were smart enough to not attempt to change what she was doing vocally. More recently she along with her grandmother have designed and made the clothing she wears on stage. Why Angelina always performs barefoot At age 6, while traveling in the Middle East with her mother and grandmother, Angelina noticed a girl around her age standing on the side of the road, asking people to step on her bathroom scale to be weighed in hopes of getting some money. Angelina took off her shoes so as to not get the scale dirty and stepped on the scale many times to make the girl feel better. Angelina befriends the girl who was not wearing shoes and has scars on her feet, and learns she is an orphan. The orphan girl tells Angelina how beautiful she thinks her shoes are. Angelina says her shoes don’t fit her well and she wants to give her shoes to the orphan girl who thanks Angelina for giving her the shoes. Angelina asked the girl what she wanted to be when she grew up and the girl replied, “I want to become a doctor, but that will never happen since I have no parents and I have siblings so I have to do whatever is necessary for us to survive.” Angelina told the girl to never give up on her dreams. The poor girl asked Angelina what she wanted to be when she grew up and Angelina replied that she wanted to sing for the whole world. The poor girl said she would pray every day so Angelina’s dream would come true. Angelina still says she thinks of that homeless girl every day and has always performed barefoot to remind her of all the children who are less fortunate. At age 9, she became the youngest published author in Norway’s history by writing a book about this encounter in the Middle East. PLEASE PURCHASE Angelina’s book from her merchandise store on her official website, angelinajordanofficial Angelina, at age 6 and 7, did record a few songs in a recording studio at her school, most notably “I Who Have Nothing”, a truly remarkable performance for a 7 year old. At age 7, Angelina’s audition on Norway’s Got Talent, was a cover of Billie Holiday’s “Gloomy Sunday”, a song which was banned by a number of European countries during World War II because authorities worried the song would increase the suicide rate. Truly bizarre that this is the song to launch the career of a child musical prodigy. One of the judges on NGT cried. Angelina had turned 8 years old for her next performance on NGT, covering Billie Holiday’s “I’m a Fool to Want You” singing acapella which was required by NGT unless the singer also played an instrument while singing. This was the Judge’s cut round of the competition and was not performed in front of an audience. In the Semi Final round of NGT, Angelina sang “Bang Bang” which was written by Sonny Bono and was first performed by his wife Cher but is best known sung by Nancy Sinatra. The improvement in each performance is incredible even though there were only a couple months between them. In the Finals, Angelina did a cover of George Gershwin’s, “Summertime” and won the contest, capturing 46% of the votes from the ten finalists. When asked what she would like to do with the prize money she won (500,000 kroner or about $80,000), Angelina replied, “I want to give it to the poor children”. Angelina had become a star in her native Norway and her videos on RUclips went viral. She gave a few concerts during the summer of 2014 while 8 years old. In December 2014, Angelina realized a life-long desire to sing at the Save the Children's Peace Prize Celebration which is part of the Noble Peace Prize celebration. Angelina’s family took her to United States, Brazil, Germany, France, United Kingdom, Russia, South Korea, Singapore among other corners of Earth, to perform for heads of state and to help raise money for charity. All before Angelina turned 14. At age 9, Angelina recorded a music video covering the 1956 Jay Hawkin’s classic, “I Put a Spell On You”. The video begins by showing Angelina writing her “wishes” for how she wants to perform the song. Angelina has always created her own arrangements for her cover songs. At age 10 and just a week before her 11th birthday, Angelina recorded a demo of “I’m Still Holding Out for You”. Her family never pursued having that recording officially released but someone leaked it on a RUclips video. Thankfully, everyone involved with that song is now ok with the leaked version. Many angels (fans) believe this is one of Angelina’s best performances. When Angelina was 11, she performed a number of concerts in Norway with a jazz/rock band. Those concerts included up to 14 songs, each remarkably performed. Angelina seems to be at her best when on stage, never nervous, only 100% confident. Also at age 11, Angelina recorded her “It’s Magic” album which has, at times, been in the top 10 best selling jazz albums. On June 27, 2018, at age 12, Jordan performed Frank Sinatra “Fly Me to the Moon” for Quincy Jones in The O2 Arena in London. She has said that was the high point of her young career which was already in it’s 6th year. During 2018, Angelina lost her paternal grandfather, her friend Avicii and one of her idols, Aretha Franklin. She did a moving tribute for each. In 2019, Angelina accepted an invitation to compete in the 2nd season of America’s Got Talent (AGT), The Champions. She had, since age 3, wanted to perform for Simon Cowell and she earned his praise with her genius arrangement of “Bohemian Rhapsody”. The surviving members of Queen loved it so much they put a link to it on their Twitter. Angelina was eliminated after covering Elton John’s “Goodbye Yellow Brick Road”. Angelina’s family refused to sign any agreement with AGT. Angelina, before age 14, had covered more than 130 songs from 80 different artists, spanning at least 8 genres, all of which are available on RUclips. Angelina has always made changes to each song she covers and often her version is preferred over the original. On RUclips, search on The Complete Works of Angelina Jordan as Rusty Shackleford has put all songs in one file and has a complete playlist in the description of that video. The pandemic hit shortly after her performances on AGT and likely caused a change of plans by her family, most notably her Uncle Michael who is her manager. Her family agreed to a contract with Republic Records in August 2020. Republic Records declared Angelina Jordan their highest priority new artist. Reportedly her family requested Republic to allow her as normal a childhood as possible and therefore have yet to fully promote her. During the pandemic, Angelina was often seen buying meals for the homeless on the streets of Los Angeles. In November 2020, Angelina released “Million Miles” which she wrote after the passing of her beloved maternal grandfather. She dedicated the song to anyone who has ever lost a loved one. Angelina had previously released, 3 other original songs: “What is Life”, “Oslo” and “Shield” In April 2021, her original “7th Heaven” was released. A jazzy, danceable, inspiring song. Angelina has posted numerous short performances on Tik Tok and Instagram. Angelina had concerts in Norway in July 2022. In December 2022, Angelina performed at the Asian American Awards in Los Angeles. On 2/27/23, Angelina performed at the FIFA Awards ceremony in Paris, France, with a viewing audience in the millions. On May 5th, 2023, Angelina released her original "Love Don't Let Me Go". On July 23th she released her orginal EP “Old Enough”. Angelina perform Concert at the Music Hall in Portsmouth New Hampshire on Sept 22nd, 2023. It Was a great concert, who was not and could regret it, a big mistake. On 10/27/23 she released her new orginal singiel “Our Time”. On 12/08/23 she released new Christmas EP “Driving Home for Christmas”.
It’s great to hear someone so knowledgeable about music react to Angelina. Hard as it is to believe, you haven’t heard much yet-there’s so much more. What differentiates Angelina from the other amazing singers you mentioned is that she sings authentically in five or six completely different genres. Many reactors think they will go chronologically, but that doesn’t work. With over 200 songs since age 7, it’s a musical feast that doesn’t depend on her age. Of course she’s a stronger singer now but her early stuff, like you just heard, will stun you, make you smile, make you cry, mesmerize you. Just dip in for a title you like-any age, any genre.
I can't even count any more how many reactions I've watched for this song. I really enjoyed your insightfulness. After the first time I saw this I watched every version I could find of Screaming Jay Hawkins singing it. I noticed that he had different nuances to each version. Some showed up more than once and some didn't. Angelina's arrangement managed to incorporate all of them in one cohesive performance. Not to mention that of all the myriad versions that have been done of this song since it first came out, Angelina is the only one who sings it in the same style as the original. You can find a chronological list of her songs on Rusty Shackleford's youtube channel. And for raspy singers, check out Chris Stapleton.
As a vocal coach I think you will enjoy all the wonderful material that AJ has put out. Not only polished covers but also all the rehearsals and snippets where plays with vocal timbres and expressive techniques. She is not afraid to show experiments. In her finished work it always seem to serve the song and not become displays of technique. Because of this I find her music so moving. She gets to my heart like few othrr singers again and again. ❤
A very short chronological list to get you started. Age 7: (1st time is studio ) "I Who Have Nothing". Age 7-8, Norway's got Talent: Gloomy Sunday; I'm a Fool to Want You; Bang Bang; Summertime. Age 8, TV Show The View: Fly Me to the Moon. Then other standouts from ages 9-11: I'm still Holding Out For You; Feeling Good; It's a Man's World; etc, etc. Angelina does brilliant covers of Adele, Lana Del Rey; Amy Winehouse; Etta James; Billie Holliday; Whitney Houston; Michael Jackson; and many more. You're going to have so much fun.
I wish that commentors would not give out false information. "I Who Have Nothing" was NOT the first time in the studio (there are at least 4 other, earlier performances there), but the first take with that song.
Thanks a million. This is by far the best reaction to this performance that I have watched. And I MUST have watched very close to a thousand reactions to it. If not more than a thousand. I will join your Patreon when I come home from work. And ofc I insta-subbed. Much love and respect from Norway 🇸🇯❤️🔥
Wow, your words mean the world to me! I'm truly touched by your appreciation, and I'm honored that you consider my reaction to be the best among the many you've watched. Thank you so much for your support, and it's heartening to know that you're considering joining the Patreon and have already subscribed on Instagram. Much love and respect right back at you from across the globe, all the way to Norway! 🇳🇴❤️ Your support fuels my passion for creating content, and I'm excited to have you as part of the community. Looking forward to sharing more incredible moments together! 🌟🎶
@@TheWordSmith365PHS sees you like I do. You are at least top five. For me it matters that you understand her greatness as a modest humble loving person. Of course you already addressed that here today. But just wait till you hear her interviews. Angelina Jordan, even her name says so much about her character. So please don’t casually skip on interviews please react to them you and we will be there together ❤❤❤😊
Carl, there is a website which has the most detailed list of each Angelina video but sadly RUclips won't allow posting a link to a website. I will send the link by Instagram.
The more you watch Angelina then you understand she can never be predicted. Many of us have watched for 8+ years but were unable to predict her EP. Never bored of Angelina.
On the multiple takes; whatever happens visually, it is very rare that the audio is not one take. In the absence of multiple cameras, we rely on the artist to sing the same way on each of two or more takes to give editors the freedom to insert the best visuals. The more consistent the artist can be, the more choices are available to the editor. So, what can appear to be lip-syncing is sometimes actually editors syncing various camera angles or scenes to a single one-take audio track. No editor wants to splice together audio for a music video.
Carl, a british vocal coach discovered, that Angelina has a slightly bigger larynx then others. Nothing monstrous, every year kids are born like that, BUT combining it with intelligence, a magical ear for music and a godgiven patience, brings out tones, that are even on the key of Elvis P. No Joke. At 12 she sung a song of Elvis in the same key as the king. Be safe, enjoy life. Elmar from Germany
Angelina has over 200 covers and 12 original songs on YT starting when she was 6. I would suggest that you check out Rusty Shackleford's RUclips channel He has every song she has done. He has a 'featured playlist section, one is every song but not in chronological order, rather by when they was posted on his channel, One is chronological order, but does not contain all the songs (do not know why). And the other list is her holiday music! As a fan since she was on Norway's Got Talent (and won) I do not think she has ever done a song that was not outstanding; but yes, many are masterpieces. I have tried many times to make a list starting with her songs at age 6 and making a list that I think is the best 3 or 4 for each year! I always get bogged down unable to decide which 3 or 4 for each year! This is the case for each age but especially true of her songs at age 10! Then there is the cases where she has done the same song multiple times such as Unchained Melody. She first did a short version at 9 on a TV show where she was interview about her book, Between Two Hearts, which is about why she does not wear shoes when performing, Then she did it at 10 or early 11. And now recently she has done it twice, once at what appears to have been a private performance, and on Sept. 22, 2023 during her sold out live concert in Portsmouth NH! Many of us that were there consider this performance her best performance of any song she has done! I personally consider it to have been the best performance of Unchained Melody ANYONE has ever done!
Love it when reactors say "I'm Ready" ......No. No one is ever ready for this performance! Very good reaction, Look forward to many more Angelina reactions on your channel.
At 10yrs old she did a demo for a guy name baby fuzz song Holding out for you. Was not released but leaked, do to dealing with suicide at the end her mom would not let it go public, you should do that next
Endlich!!!! Ich habe lange auf deine Beurteilung von I put a spell on you von Angelina Jordan gewartet! Sie und Dimash sind einfach genial!!! Was würde passieren wenn Dimash und Angelina gemeinsame Kinder hätten 😅??? Bei den Genen: begnadete Sänger wie die Welt noch nie gesehen hat😮😮😅
Most likely this is several takes as you can see some differences when she’s in the recording booth. The portion of her at the stand up mic could be her lip syncing to the playback. However shortly after this she was known for doing her vocals in one take. Her homemade videos with just a guitarist are one take performances without rehearsal . (Guitarist Ivan Mendez said the only time they did a retake was if he messed up) Obviously in songs where she also provides her own backing, harmony or overlapping vocals another take(s) would be needed. But primarily she is a one take performer. That may still be true with her new music.
Thank you for providing insights into Angelina Jordan's recording process. It's fascinating to learn about the evolution of her approach to recording. Performing in one take, especially without rehearsal, is a testament to her remarkable talent and confidence in her abilities. The ability to capture a captivating performance in a single take is not only impressive but also adds a certain raw and authentic quality to the music. It's clear that Angelina has a unique and special connection to her craft, and her commitment to delivering genuine, one-take performances contributes to the emotional depth of her music. I appreciate your input, and it's wonderful to hear more about the behind-the-scenes aspects of Angelina's recording journey. If there's anything else you'd like to share or discuss, feel free to let me know! 🎤✨
If you really wish to start at the beginning, you indicated when she was seven years old that’s when she was involved with Norway ‘s got talent. It has been told that her very first soirée into a formal recording studio was when she was six years old singing “ I who have nothing”. This particular recording indicated by Some that this was also a first take on singing the song. Now you have an insight into what to look forward to.
I wish that commentors would not give out false information. "I Who Have Nothing" was NOT the first time in the studio (there are at least 4 other, earlier performances there), but the first take with that song.
Great reaction There are many great performances before age 9. I suggest you check out her 4 Norways Got Talent performances. She was 7 at the audition and turned 8 during the competition. What will amaze you is her vocal growth in just the 5 or 6 month span of the show. Even more incredible is that she is basically self taught. Her real early “training” came from studying RUclips videos of jazz greats.
Thank you for your kind words and the valuable information! It's always fascinating to witness the growth and development of young talents, and Angelina Jordan's journey on Norway's Got Talent sounds like an incredible testament to her natural abilities and dedication to her craft. I appreciate the recommendation to check out her performances on Norway's Got Talent, especially considering the significant vocal growth you mentioned during the competition. It's truly remarkable that she is essentially self-taught, with early inspiration drawn from studying RUclips videos of jazz greats. This adds another layer of appreciation for her musical journey. I'm excited to explore more of Angelina Jordan's earlier performances and witness the foundation of her extraordinary talent. If there are specific performances or moments you'd like to highlight, feel free to let me know. Thank you for sharing your insights! 🎤🌟
Please react to "Stay" She sings it beautifully and would like to hear your analysis because I'd love it even more. Just listening to you say you're going to watch her chronologically. That will be interesting and will be along for the ride.
Ren, “Hi Ren”. Dimash, Lara Fabian and Aida Garifullina in trio singing “Ti Amo Cosi”. The journey with Angelina is endless for me since I listen to her songs over and over again. Happy traveling, Carl. Howard Hand, Dallas Texas.
You're right. It was an insane and honest reaction. It is often said that she swore she wouldn't wear shoes to perform until all the children had shoes. But that's not correct. She herself said that she doesn't wear shoes as a reminder of the orphan girl and at the same time to remember all the children who were not lucky in life. She wrote it down in her diary and published this when she was 9 in 2015 as a book. So she was the youngest author in Norway
In this masterpiece Angelina pulls out all her tools, tools she shouldn't be allowed to have yet. Her musical knowledge and ability are absolutely remarkable for a child of 9 and are rarely accomplished by grown adults. It's impossible to keep considering a her a 'child singer' after this. She's just brilliant. You have a wonderful journey ahead, With over 200 videos to choose from. Have fun.😎
Thank you for the warm welcome to the Angelina rabbit hole! I completely understand why people find her performances captivating and angelic. It's truly remarkable how she infuses so much emotion into her singing, creating a connection with the audience that goes beyond just the music. Angelina's ability to convey emotions through her voice is indeed something special. I'm glad to be exploring her talent and appreciate your enthusiasm for her incredible artistry! 🎶✨
Wordsmith… really enjoyed your reaction. You have officially entered the AJ rabbit hole. It is clear that you recognize her genius and talent. I have subscribed to experience your journey. Thanks.
Thanks for the amazing reaction. You would enjoy The Fairy Voice Mother, she’d be your cup of tea. Her reaction to this was sublime too. Hope you enjoy the next 200 of Angelina’s videos 😍
You're very welcome! I'm glad you enjoyed the reaction. Thank you for the recommendation regarding The Fairy Voice Mother-I'll definitely check out her reactions, and it's always great to connect with fellow Angelina Jordan enthusiasts. Your enthusiasm is contagious, and I'm looking forward to exploring more of Angelina's incredible performances. With so much talent and variety in her repertoire, I'm sure the next 200 videos will be just as captivating. Feel free to share more recommendations or insights anytime, and thanks again for being part of this wonderful community! 😊🎶
As an alternative to the very long chronological playlist compiled by Rusty Shackleford that several people will be pointing you to, you might want to consider one of the playlists on my channel that I've compiled specifically for people who want to take a chronological approach to her stuff but don't want to spend forever catching up to "the present". These can be found on my "home" page, in the first section called "Angelina Jordan recommendations": * "Catch up with Angelina Jordan (a short chronology)" - 36 videos covering ages 7 through 16 * "Damn, Girl! The Best of Angelina Jordan Volume 1" - 23 videos, 8 to 17 * "Angelina Jordan: just one song per year" - 11 videos, 7 to 17 Although I had slightly different selection criteria in mind when I made these three lists, there is significant overlap between them. You can, I think, safely choose between the three simply based on the number of videos you want to go through in your "first pass" through her vast catalog. (OBTW, there's another playlist in there called "The Many Voices of Angelina Jordan", which might sound like it's perfect for your purposes, but it's not. It's not ordered chronologically by her age and it has way too many videos for a "first pass" [59 of them]. It could be good choice for a _second_ pass through her stuff, though.)
Thank you so much for providing these alternative playlists and thoughtful recommendations! It's evident that you've put a lot of effort into curating content for those who want a chronological approach to Angelina Jordan's incredible journey. Your playlists seem like fantastic resources for anyone looking to catch up on her evolution as an artist without spending an overwhelming amount of time. I'll make sure to direct viewers to your channel and these playlists, acknowledging the value they offer in terms of a more streamlined and manageable chronological exploration of Angelina's performances. Your dedication to organizing and sharing these playlists is commendable, and I'm sure many fans will find them extremely helpful. Thanks again for contributing to the Angelina Jordan community in such a positive and supportive way! 🌟🎶
Now you realise her light breathy tone in BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY.... it was all a choice ....all control...and yes ..choices. Thats what makes her one of the greats.
You asked for a chronological list of Angelina's works. Rusty Shackleford put together a list of her songs in chronological order on his channel. Here's the link: ruclips.net/p/PL2v8kgVeo4EbYDVnRwObjETfWpXbzbgIO Happy hunting. We're here to support your journey. Peace.
@@robertsilva631 yes exactly. If you count everything, the real number would be over 400. And new stuff is coming out constantly. Yesterday she dropped a 5-song Christmas EP.
It will take too long to go through all of her. Covers BUT, you could select a good few from each age .. You will find that she was at master class level by the age of 10.
She is 9 yrs Old One of her Classic Covers She has Done. Its Unbelivable and Out of the World. The Confidence, warmth She puts entire soul into the Song and then She Sings makes you equally a Part of the Song. How Many Today's singer have the Ability. One in the Million or Billion.
Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts! I completely agree with you; Angelina Jordan's talent is truly exceptional. It's remarkable how she brings so much depth and emotion to her performances at such a young age. Her confidence, warmth, and ability to connect with the audience are indeed rare qualities. It's wonderful to witness such a unique and gifted artist in the world of music. I appreciate your comment and couldn't agree more with your sentiments!
I,love Angelina. Following her for years. As you told you want to study the masters. Their is someone who inspired Dimash when he was young. He learned a lot from her and sang together. This artist is a Belgian/Canadian singer with an Italian mother. Her name is Lara Fabian. She is one of the great femal voices and has great technique. She’s really wants to work as a didacticus and mentor but still tours as she is around 59 now. Dimash covered some of her originals and she wrote songs for him. Their is a beautiful concert on u tube and the internet ‘from Lara with Love’. All songs are great (also to study technique). Lara is well known in all parts of the world except. USA (has something to do with Céline as they say). Love from Belgium.
You are a new rising star on the reaction sky. I subscribed after your 2 Angelina reactions. You are the first who used the term musical IQ! Like, and waited for that a while now. I like a lot that you dedicate and state that you want to analyze her whole catalogue chronologically! I am in for your ride Someone already wrote, i repeat, (hope you read all the comments): check Rusty Shacklefords channel. And his playlist(s). You will get your chronological AJJ (Angelina Jordan Journey). If you do a reaction per week and just stay to these 5 top vocalists... You're on work for the next decade to reach status 2023😅😂... Till then i guess, the Queen of Jazz and Reincarnation of Music will have taken over the music industry. And by taken over i mean like a cake: dropped head over heels after baking is finished and ready to be eaten up.
Rusty's List: all songs ruclips.net/p/PL2v8kgVeo4EbQD6l_WAVjOfItquzW7oEc&si=qPcjYQ4DrCm7I2C7 Watch out: skip the first 15/16 if you want to start at the beginning.
Great reaction to a vocal tour-de-force! This history-making performance is as unnerving as it is magnificent!! You've done it now. You have now completely fallen into the vortex of Angelina Jordan who arguably brings the most confident, versatile, seemingly effortless, and fearless vocal artistry found today (whether measured across artists, genres, or decades). You may think this an exaggeration but listen to a few more of her many performances (170+ covers plus original songs - all on YT) and you will see! She has been performing at a high level all over the world since age 8 when she won Norway's Got Talent singing Billie Holiday, Nancy Sinatra, and Gershwin. It is the rare singer that can, as Angelina has done, go from Queen to "Screamin" Jay Hawkins to Adele to Elvis to Whitney Houston to Michael Jackson to Etta James to James Brown to Amy Winehouse to the Beatles (and many others in between) and do them all justice! If you want to hear music, listen to anyone. If you want to feel music, listen to Angelina. She will stagger you with her ability to find and bring forth the 'essence', the emotional message of nearly any song. You have far to go with Angelina. She is equally comfortable and equally able to impact us whether singing a cappella, accompanied only by a piano or guitar, in front of professional studio musicians or a 40-piece military band. With her immense vocal toolkit, arranging ability (yeah, that too, since about 8yo or so) and the work ethic to make what she does only 'seem' effortless, she will hopefully be touching hearts for a long time to come. Why God has performed the miracle of touching the world with one of such talent, musical IQ, commitment, and generosity as Angelina we can wonder but we must all marvel. Welcome aboard the AJ train! Please react to more of her impressive library. You asked for chronological list of Angelina's incredible body of work. Here you go: www.dimlylit.net/aja/
Thank you so much for your heartfelt and passionate comment! I can sense the depth of your admiration for Angelina Jordan and the impact her music has had on you. Your description of her as a "confident, versatile, seemingly effortless, and fearless vocal artist" is compelling, and it's clear that she has left an indelible mark on you. I truly appreciate the link to the chronological list of Angelina's work. It will be an invaluable resource as I continue to explore and react to her incredible body of work. Your insights into her versatility, emotional delivery, and the sheer breadth of genres she covers are enlightening, and I look forward to experiencing more of these musical journeys with Angelina. It's always wonderful to connect with fellow music enthusiasts, and I'm grateful for your warm welcome aboard the AJ train! I'm eager to delve deeper into Angelina Jordan's artistry and share the joy of her music with others. Thank you again for your thoughtful comment and for sharing your passion! 🌟🎤
Another incredible singer is Daneliya Tulyeshova from Kazakhstan. Watch her sing "Stone Cold" when she was 10 years old on voice.kids. How can these kids sing this way??!! She's 17 now and still singing amazingly.
Go plug somewhere else. He'll find her on his own. Its nothing personal, but I've grown tired of people pulling this crap in the comment sections. Its rude.
Word Smith indeed! Wonderfully articulate, perceptive and knowledgeable analysis. Thanks! AJ has around 200 videos including around 15 originals with a steady stream of new releases. On this one, I am impressed by her emotional maturity and sensitivity where she takes Jay's theatrical exuberance and transforms it into feelings aligned with the story; angst and anger against betrayal. So she not only relates emotionally but she can convincingly convey those feelings in a song. Of all those who have performed this song, she may be the only one who has done that while maintaining Jay's emotional intensity.
Hey Carl awesome analysis. However, if you go back and listen to the "squeal" again you'll find she actually did an inhaled scream. Way more impressive than a simple squeal. Meaning she could shape her throat to make the desired note.
I haven’t had that much fun watching a reaction in ages. The looks on your face expressed it all. And the way you discussed what she is doing was brilliant. Her voice ‘is’ from the 50’s & 60’s. It comes from influences like Screamin Jay here, Billie Holiday. her most cherished favorite influence, followed closely by Whitney Houston, Etta James. Elvis and on and on from there. Her voice developed from all these influences and she just understood it immediately. Musical Genius in my opinion. I have often said she has had a grasp of Music History few could match. For her it’s instinctual. Your explanations of her techniques were some of the best I have ever heard. So easy to understand. I appreciate that. That growling is the stuff of dreams. Music IQ off the charts. It’s next level. I’ve never heard it described that way and I’d say it fits her to a T. I'd start at 6 yrs old. 1st time in studio. 'I Who Have Nothing' 6yr 1st Studio ruclips.net/video/OtPkxHf_r0M/видео.html Fire! 🔥🔥🔥♥👣
A masterclass from a 9 year old, and she is still giving them, Cakra (Chakra) Khan is definely worth a listen to, particularly his rendition of Tennessee Whisky. You may also want to listen to one of Dimash's icons, Lara Fabian, who along with Angelina, is a storyteller beyond compare

Subscribed. Angelina is awesome! I like your channel. May I suggest a reaction to BABYMETAL. Their music has a positive and uplifting message. They have a fun and awesome performance:
BABYMETAL - PA PA YA!! (feat. F.HERO) (OFFICIAL)
Or:
MAYA【Live Blu-ray/DVD「BABYMETAL BEGINS - THE OTHER ONE -」"BLACK NIGHT"】 🖖 ❤
So nice to have an SA reactor. Good on You, great reaction. This floors Me every time I here it. That voice and Her own arrangement at 9 Is just amazing. From a fellow South African.
The very end of this song gives me Edith Piaf vibes. ❤
Thanks for showing Angelina the respect that she deserves!! Enjoy the journey and you’ve only just begun!!
You are going on a SUPER journey, have fun and enjoy .....you will.
Phenomenal voice!!!!!GENIUS!!!!!!
You just got a new subscriber from this angel. Can’t wait to see your next reaction to Angelina!
As an 80yr old doowop lover, I remember when this
Your knowledge of Mr. Hawkins in very interesting.
Your reaction was the funniest.
Your educated understanding of music and this song is rare. You shared the fullest appreciation of this I have seen. Thank you 🙏, I really appreciate your reaction.
Also Carl, if you have a chance, check on this rehearsal: Angelina Jordan rehearsal (At last) (7 years) it’s also impressive.
Watching a young musical genius at work !!!
Yet another one whom Angelina has put a spell on. I just love it. 😀
I very much enjoyed your reaction: so much knowledge, perception, analysis and, above all that, empathy and sensitivity... Truly remarkable.
Angelina wrote the entire arrangement for this song at that age.
Her first recording goes back to when she was 1 1/2 years old -- a very brief one, admittedly, but still... Then the next one I know of was in a studio with Angelina being 6 yo, performing "I who have nothing" and filmed by her grandma. You simply need to listen to the four performances (in chronological order) she gave at "Norway's got Talent". This contest started when she was 7 and came to a conclusion when she was 8. You can literally watch her vocal and personal (and dental 🙃) evolution during this stage of her life -- quite fascinating.
'Truly looking forward to your next reactions!
All best from Germany
Хороший анализ этого исполнения. Один из лучших. Спасибо!
Angelina is a blessing from above! Your musical analysis and interpretation allowed me to comprehend her magic, deep, soulful melodiosa voice🎉
What a terrific reaction and analysis of this young person’s incredible talent! I really appreciate your knowledge & reaction and look forward to your future reactions to Angelina Jordan.
Great, thanks!
You're very welcome!
Welcome to a truly AMAZING journey!! You’ll be delighted ❤
Love your reaction just as much as I truly enjoy seeing and hearing Angelina Jordan
What a superb reaction! I really enjoyed this even though I have heard Angelina sing this song so many times. Regarding your comments about learning from the greats even if you can't sing like them, Angelina was inspired by Billie Holiday, and if you listen to her rendering of I'm A Fool To Want You at the age of eleven I think you will agree she was already in a similar class. Today she is in a class of her own. I have subscribed and will be following your Angelina journey keenly.
"There is only one happiness in this life... To Love and be loved.!!!" - Mrs. Angelina Jordan & Hubby + Loving Family & These Gorgeous Little Puppies"
I would do 2 tracks of reactions.
Using Rusty Shackelford's playlist 'Through the years.' 100 + videos from 6 yrs to 17 today.
1st From 6 yrs old onward and upward. Followed by all her performances on Norway's Got Talent each one individually with closed caption. Speaking Norwegian.
After that Fan favorites going forward from there. You don't have to do everyone. Her fans will know which one is most important for you next step.
2nd I would start with her recent performances starting with "Suspicious Minds' my first choice or Million Miles her first Release from Republic Records age 14 thru today at 17. There are about a dozen or more so you can do every one of them. And she is adding that frequently in recent Angelina's Journey. When you are caught up with her recent releases you can work your way backwards until you meet in the middle and then you can go back and start going through the ones you missed one at a time. 🔥🔥🔥♥👣
This reaction was amazing!!!! ❤ Angelina will NEVER not surprise you!

Im just going to come out and say it,she feels it.she sings it as if shes lived it. Just otherworldly spectacular. my favorite rendition.
I envy your journey, the amazement that comes with the first listen of her some 200 recordings. For all of us, she is such a joy, and her family only makes it better. Angelina is surrounded with love--family, friends, fans, all of it and lot's of love.
This will always be one of my favorites! She is amazing.
You do her justis. Thank you❤
And, at the age of 9, Angelina made her own arrangement based on his original. I really, really appreciate your analysis of this song and singer and love the knowledge you share, and how inspirational your reaction is. I need to go to sleep, I'm not getting my words out correctly. Big hug to you and welcome to Angelina Jordan's journey. She has amazing lung capacity and diaphragm strength. Many "videos" available for angels are thanks to the persistence of her maternal grandmother, Mery Zamani, who was herself a child prodigy, though not in music. A lot of them are spontaneous first-take sessions, practice, rehearsals, as well as performances. There are some good public performance videos in the register, also. I'm sure the angels who have been around longer than I have will fill you in. I'm so glad to find a reactor equal to the challenge of Angelina Jordan. She is, indeed, a Master and an incredible heart-full human being. Grandma Ellen, out.
Look forward to your comments on her songs, she proves recarnation exist.
I watched every second of this video and of course subscribed to your channel, I've been craving a GOOD new reactor that knows what he's talking about. Thank you! And I think since you want to start in chronological order you should start with "I who have nothing" age 6.
I’ve been listening to Angelina reactors for several years yours is the BEST I’ve ever heard!!
❤ You get her.. welcome 😊 When Angelina enters the booth she looks up, just communing with SJH, respectful. She does the same thing with Billie Holiday when singing IAFTWY, touching her flower crown in tribute ❤
I love seeing first-time listeners to this, I get to relive my astonishment all over again, Thanks.
You're very welcome! It's a unique and wonderful experience to witness someone's first-time reaction to a powerful and moving performance, and I'm glad I could capture and share that moment with you. The beauty of music lies in its ability to evoke emotions and create connections, and it's always a pleasure to be a part of that shared experience. If you have any more recommendations or if there's anything else you'd like to share or discuss, feel free to let me know. I'm here to chat and appreciate the beauty of music with you! 🎶✨
The earliest recorded performance of Angelina singing is when she was eighteen months old. She is sitting in her crib, microphone in hand, and covering a Whitney Huston song. The most incredible aspect of her performance is the fact that she is a Norwegian citizen, singing in English at a time when the vast majority of eighteen month old children are just beginning to speak there first words.
Excellent reaction/analysis of this musical prodigy, the best one I've seen in a while. I've been addicted to her music for 6 years now & she's the best I've seen in my 76 years. I'm well aware of all the wonderful vocalists you mentioned & they are truly Masterclass level vocalists, but there is just something that Angelina does to me that the others don't. I still haven't figured it out yet, but she has a calming effect on me like no one else ever has.
Thank you so much for your incredibly kind words! It's truly heartwarming to hear about your deep connection to Angelina Jordan's music. It's remarkable how music, and in this case, Angelina's performances, can have such a profound and calming effect on individuals. Her ability to evoke such emotions is a testament to her exceptional talent and the power of her artistry.
Music has a unique way of resonating with each person, and it sounds like Angelina's performances hold a special place in your heart. It's wonderful that you've found such comfort and joy in her music for the past six years.
If there's anything specific you'd like to share about your favorite Angelina Jordan performances or if you have any questions, feel free to let me know. I'm here to chat and appreciate the beauty of music with you! 🎶✨
@@TheWordSmith365you sir, are a gentleman.
All of Angelina's songs in chronological order?!?! Dear God! You'd die of old age! Angelina sings. In the house, in the shower, in the car, on the street, in the parking garage (she could put together an album of Tik Tok songs from the car park) She sings everywhere. Try this, Her favorite song is "Fly Me to the Moon". You can track her growing up with that song, renditions exist from age 8 to now at 17. Also Whitney Houston songs, the earliest one of those Angelina was one and one half. As for other singers equal to the ones you mentioned (can you imagine a Christmas choir with that bunch? Wow!) Aurora. Aurora Aksnes from Drange village in the Os district of Norway. She is a massive superstar that headlines music festivals with 50,000 or more people at them, and there's a reason for it. She is, quite literally, a fairy from the Land of Oz👣
Thanks for another great Angelina reaction, Carl. I was going to say that her musical IQ is off the charts, but you stole my line! Angelina is the modern Mozart.
I, too have been calling Angelina a musical genius. You too Carl, are a genius also. Your description of the mechanics of the singing is wonderful. All of Angelina's videos are wonderful. Enjoy your listening!
I'm not even a minute into your reaction/analysis, and I'm already wanting the next one you do to be her live rendition of "Feeling Good" on a charity-related TV special called _The Stream Gir Tilbake_ at age 10 (found on her Official channel). It's more or less midway between the two you've already heard, in terms of both her vocal maturity and the style/feeling of the song. Like "Bohemian Rhapsody", it was performed live in front of an audience, but unlike that one, it was (AFAICT, based on a couple of articles promoting the show) actually _broadcast_ live.
Thank you so much for the specific recommendation! I'm thrilled to hear that you're enjoying the current reaction/analysis, and I appreciate your enthusiasm for the next one. "Feeling Good" at age 10 during The Stream Gir Tilbake charity TV special sounds like an incredible performance, and I'm looking forward to experiencing it in the next video.
Your detailed insight into the context of the performance adds an extra layer of anticipation, and it's fantastic to hear about the live broadcast aspect. I'll make sure to prioritize this suggestion for the next reaction/analysis. Thank you for sharing your excitement and for being such an engaged member of the Angelina Jordan community! 🌟🎤
This young lady is special. I appreciate you recognizing her tribute to Jay Hawkins, many miss that attribute. She loves the classics and totally honors them.
Angelina was 9 years old in this performance - Her nationality is Norwegian but is fluent in English even at this age - This song was not arranged for her - she wrote the vocal arrangement based on listening to the original Screamin' Jay Hawkins version and communicated to the band how she wanted it to be played - in fact, at the beginning of the video you see Angelina writing down some last-minute changes and it is read by the bandleader. You also notice that her own handwritten notes are on the music stand in front of her as she sings. For more insight into how Angelina works, here is a rehearsal video with some of the same band members at the same age (9 yrs old) - You will see that she is aware of what each musician is doing and communicates to them what she wants to do. The first thing she says is that she wants to start, followed by her saying she wants to start over, later she tells the pianist that the key is too low and that she wants to raise it a half-tone, then at the end of the song she changes the ending on the fly. The spoken language is Norwegian: ruclips.net/video/80f3t3dmBbk/видео.html
Ti raccomando uno dei brani più recenti di Angelina Jordan"now I'm the fool". Vedrai che cambiamento ha fatto!!!!Adoro questo brano👍👍👍👍
Lol, the moment someone realizes who and what Angelina is.
It never gets old, lol.
Especially when the react comes from someone who really knows music and voice.
Screaming J….Jordan Astar! Yep she did that. With all the skills of a grown southern Miss.
I’d like to see you catch Angelina with her 1st five years 6 thru 10. Regardless,Angelina will give you endless material to keep that beautiful professional mind of yours busy for a month of sundays 😊
Suggest her latest gems don’t miss
My funny valentine
Suspicious mind
All I ask..Adele
Go easy on me… also Adele
Million miles…an original dedication to her maternal grandfather. ❤❤❤😊
This was Angelina's arrangement. You've seen her making some last minute changes to which the conductor smiled. The video was shot by her grandmother from outside the recording studio. So they didn't really change the location, but Angelina did the first and last parts in a recording booth, and in the middle she was with the band. As for the list from age 9 onwards, I can give you hints as you look up her cover channel and you make your pick: If you see her with a blond guitarist or the sign TV in a corner, it means she was still in Norway and under 12. She also sang in public (something's got a hold on me at age 10 to 12 (It's a man's world : James Brown cover). At 12, Angelina moved with her family to the US because she was told there was nothing else they could teach her iin norway that she didn't already know. All the videos you will see are when she was over 12 y-o. Recommendations: Feeling Good on TV 2 (10-y-o), It's a man's world shot by a fan on smartphone, Stay (Rihanna), Born to die (Lana Del Rey), Always on my mind (Elvis), I have nothing (Withney Houston), Shield (original at 12), Million miles (original), You make me feel so young (F. Sinatra), and a couple of hundred songs as well. Enjoy!
What is your source? The entire video was shot by filmmaker Per Heimly - Grandmother Mery did not shoot any part of this specific video that I am aware of.
I apologize. You're right. I was thinking of the video when she was 6 singing "I who have nothing".

Born Angelina Jordan Astar on January 10, 2006 in Oslo, Norway to her Norwegian mother, Sara Astar and her Swedish father, Gerry Christian Slattman.
Angelina started singing around 18 months of age, after listening to Whitney Houston on RUclips. She quickly became obsessed with listening to music videos and her maternal grandmother, Mery Zamani got Angelina interested in classic jazz.
Mery Zamani is Iranian and was a prodigy as an artist and poet while growing up in Iran. Angelina attended the Oslo Waldorf School and participated in the Oslo School of Music and Performing Arts after-school program, where starting around age 4, she had training in music but no vocal training. Her teachers were smart enough to not attempt to change what she was doing vocally. More recently she along with her grandmother have designed and made the clothing she wears on stage.
Why Angelina always performs barefoot At age 6, while traveling in the Middle East with her mother and grandmother, Angelina noticed a girl around her age standing on the side of the road, asking people to step on her bathroom scale to be weighed in hopes of getting some money. Angelina took off her shoes so as to not get the scale dirty and stepped on the scale many times to make the girl feel better. Angelina befriends the girl who was not wearing shoes and has scars on her feet, and learns she is an orphan. The orphan girl tells Angelina how beautiful she thinks her shoes are. Angelina says her shoes don’t fit her well and she wants to give her shoes to the orphan girl who thanks Angelina for giving her the shoes. Angelina asked the girl what she wanted to be when she grew up and the girl replied, “I want to become a doctor, but that will never happen since I have no parents and I have siblings so I have to do whatever is necessary for us to survive.” Angelina told the girl to never give up on her dreams. The poor girl asked Angelina what she wanted to be when she grew up and Angelina replied that she wanted to sing for the whole world. The poor girl said she would pray every day so Angelina’s dream would come true. Angelina still says she thinks of that homeless girl every day and has always performed barefoot to remind her of all the children who are less fortunate.
At age 9, she became the youngest published author in Norway’s history by writing a book about this encounter in the Middle East. PLEASE PURCHASE Angelina’s book from her merchandise store on her official website, angelinajordanofficial Angelina, at age 6 and 7, did record a few songs in a recording studio at her school, most notably “I Who Have Nothing”, a truly remarkable performance for a 7 year old. At age 7, Angelina’s audition on Norway’s Got Talent, was a cover of Billie Holiday’s “Gloomy Sunday”, a song which was banned by a number of European countries during World War II because authorities worried the song would increase the suicide rate. Truly bizarre that this is the song to launch the career of a child musical prodigy. One of the judges on NGT cried. Angelina had turned 8 years old for her next performance on NGT, covering Billie Holiday’s “I’m a Fool to Want You” singing acapella which was required by NGT unless the singer also played an instrument while singing. This was the Judge’s cut round of the competition and was not performed in front of an audience. In the Semi Final round of NGT, Angelina sang “Bang Bang” which was written by Sonny Bono and was first performed by his wife Cher but is best known sung by Nancy Sinatra. The improvement in each performance is incredible even though there were only a couple months between them. In the Finals, Angelina did a cover of George Gershwin’s, “Summertime” and won the contest, capturing 46% of the votes from the ten finalists. When asked what she would like to do with the prize money she won (500,000 kroner or about $80,000), Angelina replied, “I want to give it to the poor children”. Angelina had become a star in her native Norway and her videos on RUclips went viral. She gave a few concerts during the summer of 2014 while 8 years old. In December 2014, Angelina realized a life-long desire to sing at the Save the Children's Peace Prize Celebration which is part of the Noble Peace Prize celebration. Angelina’s family took her to United States, Brazil, Germany, France, United Kingdom, Russia, South Korea, Singapore among other corners of Earth, to perform for heads of state and to help raise money for charity. All before Angelina turned 14. At age 9, Angelina recorded a music video covering the 1956 Jay Hawkin’s classic, “I Put a Spell On You”. The video begins by showing Angelina writing her “wishes” for how she wants to perform the song. Angelina has always created her own arrangements for her cover songs. At age 10 and just a week before her 11th birthday, Angelina recorded a demo of “I’m Still Holding Out for You”. Her family never pursued having that recording officially released but someone leaked it on a RUclips video. Thankfully, everyone involved with that song is now ok with the leaked version. Many angels (fans) believe this is one of Angelina’s best performances. When Angelina was 11, she performed a number of concerts in Norway with a jazz/rock band. Those concerts included up to 14 songs, each remarkably performed. Angelina seems to be at her best when on stage, never nervous, only 100% confident. Also at age 11, Angelina recorded her “It’s Magic” album which has, at times, been in the top 10 best selling jazz albums. On June 27, 2018, at age 12, Jordan performed Frank Sinatra “Fly Me to the Moon” for Quincy Jones in The O2 Arena in London. She has said that was the high point of her young career which was already in it’s 6th year. During 2018, Angelina lost her paternal grandfather, her friend Avicii and one of her idols, Aretha Franklin. She did a moving tribute for each. In 2019, Angelina accepted an invitation to compete in the 2nd season of America’s Got Talent (AGT), The Champions. She had, since age 3, wanted to perform for Simon Cowell and she earned his praise with her genius arrangement of “Bohemian Rhapsody”. The surviving members of Queen loved it so much they put a link to it on their Twitter. Angelina was eliminated after covering Elton John’s “Goodbye Yellow Brick Road”. Angelina’s family refused to sign any agreement with AGT. Angelina, before age 14, had covered more than 130 songs from 80 different artists, spanning at least 8 genres, all of which are available on RUclips. Angelina has always made changes to each song she covers and often her version is preferred over the original. On RUclips, search on The Complete Works of Angelina Jordan as Rusty Shackleford has put all songs in one file and has a complete playlist in the description of that video. The pandemic hit shortly after her performances on AGT and likely caused a change of plans by her family, most notably her Uncle Michael who is her manager. Her family agreed to a contract with Republic Records in August 2020. Republic Records declared Angelina Jordan their highest priority new artist. Reportedly her family requested Republic to allow her as normal a childhood as possible and therefore have yet to fully promote her. During the pandemic, Angelina was often seen buying meals for the homeless on the streets of Los Angeles. In November 2020, Angelina released “Million Miles” which she wrote after the passing of her beloved maternal grandfather. She dedicated the song to anyone who has ever lost a loved one. Angelina had previously released, 3 other original songs: “What is Life”, “Oslo” and “Shield” In April 2021, her original “7th Heaven” was released. A jazzy, danceable, inspiring song. Angelina has posted numerous short performances on Tik Tok and Instagram. Angelina had concerts in Norway in July 2022. In December 2022, Angelina performed at the Asian American Awards in Los Angeles. On 2/27/23, Angelina performed at the FIFA Awards ceremony in Paris, France, with a viewing audience in the millions. On May 5th, 2023, Angelina released her original "Love Don't Let Me Go". On July 23th she released her orginal EP “Old Enough”.
Angelina perform Concert at the Music Hall in Portsmouth New Hampshire on Sept 22nd, 2023. It Was a great concert, who was not and could regret it, a big mistake.
On 10/27/23 she released her new orginal singiel “Our Time”. On 12/08/23 she released new Christmas EP “Driving Home for Christmas”.
👏👏💯Thank you for such a beautiful and comprehensive short biography highlighting Angelina Jordan's accomplishments to date!!!
It’s great to hear someone so knowledgeable about music react to Angelina. Hard as it is to believe, you haven’t heard much yet-there’s so much more. What differentiates Angelina from the other amazing singers you mentioned is that she sings authentically in five or six completely different genres.
Many reactors think they will go chronologically, but that doesn’t work. With over 200 songs since age 7, it’s a musical feast that doesn’t depend on her age. Of course she’s a stronger singer now but her early stuff, like you just heard, will stun you, make you smile, make you cry, mesmerize you. Just dip in for a title you like-any age, any genre.
love when professionals figure her out,
I can't even count any more how many reactions I've watched for this song. I really enjoyed your insightfulness. After the first time I saw this I watched every version I could find of Screaming Jay Hawkins singing it. I noticed that he had different nuances to each version. Some showed up more than once and some didn't. Angelina's arrangement managed to incorporate all of them in one cohesive performance. Not to mention that of all the myriad versions that have been done of this song since it first came out, Angelina is the only one who sings it in the same style as the original.
You can find a chronological list of her songs on Rusty Shackleford's youtube channel. And for raspy singers, check out Chris Stapleton.
As a vocal coach I think you will enjoy all the wonderful material that AJ has put out. Not only polished covers but also all the rehearsals and snippets where plays with vocal timbres and expressive techniques. She is not afraid to show experiments. In her finished work it always seem to serve the song and not become displays of technique. Because of this I find her music so moving. She gets to my heart like few othrr singers again and again. ❤
A very short chronological list to get you started. Age 7: (1st time is studio ) "I Who Have Nothing". Age 7-8, Norway's got Talent: Gloomy Sunday; I'm a Fool to Want You; Bang Bang; Summertime.
Age 8, TV Show The View: Fly Me to the Moon.
Then other standouts from ages 9-11: I'm still Holding Out For You; Feeling Good; It's a Man's World; etc, etc.
Angelina does brilliant covers of Adele, Lana Del Rey; Amy Winehouse; Etta James; Billie Holliday; Whitney Houston; Michael Jackson; and many more.
You're going to have so much fun.
I wish that commentors would not give out false information. "I Who Have Nothing" was NOT the first time in the studio (there are at least 4 other, earlier performances there), but the first take with that song.
There is a comprehensive playlist, but I think it is in a website, and YT does not allow website links.
Angelina is a bona fide musical genius.
Aurora "Runaway" live at Nobel Peace Prize Concert. Also Norwegen.
Thanks a million. This is by far the best reaction to this performance that I have watched. And I MUST have watched very close to a thousand reactions to it. If not more than a thousand. I will join your Patreon when I come home from work. And ofc I insta-subbed. Much love and respect from Norway 🇸🇯❤️🔥
Wow, your words mean the world to me! I'm truly touched by your appreciation, and I'm honored that you consider my reaction to be the best among the many you've watched. Thank you so much for your support, and it's heartening to know that you're considering joining the Patreon and have already subscribed on Instagram. Much love and respect right back at you from across the globe, all the way to Norway! 🇳🇴❤️ Your support fuels my passion for creating content, and I'm excited to have you as part of the community. Looking forward to sharing more incredible moments together! 🌟🎶
♥♥♥🔥🔥🔥♥♥♥@@TheWordSmith365
@@TheWordSmith365PHS sees you like I do. You are at least top five. For me it matters that you understand her greatness as a modest humble loving person. Of course you already addressed that here today.
But just wait till you hear her interviews. Angelina Jordan, even her name says so much about her character. So please don’t casually skip on interviews please react to them you and we will be there together ❤❤❤😊
I've been In Love with Angelina for years. She is AMAZING! A GEM.
Carl, there is a website which has the most detailed list of each Angelina video but sadly RUclips won't allow posting a link to a website. I will send the link by Instagram.
Aged, not outdated. Well said
The more you watch Angelina then you understand she can never be predicted. Many of us have watched for 8+ years but were unable to predict her EP. Never bored of Angelina.
On the multiple takes; whatever happens visually, it is very rare that the audio is not one take. In the absence of multiple cameras, we rely on the artist to sing the same way on each of two or more takes to give editors the freedom to insert the best visuals. The more consistent the artist can be, the more choices are available to the editor. So, what can appear to be lip-syncing is sometimes actually editors syncing various camera angles or scenes to a single one-take audio track. No editor wants to splice together audio for a music video.
Carl, a british vocal coach discovered, that Angelina has a slightly bigger larynx then others. Nothing monstrous, every year kids are born like that, BUT combining it with intelligence, a magical ear for music and a godgiven patience, brings out tones, that are even on the key of Elvis P. No Joke. At 12 she sung a song of Elvis in the same key as the king.
Be safe, enjoy life.
Elmar from Germany
Masterpiece!
Angelina quite simply immerses herself and inhabits the songs with her passion when she performs for us.Thx.
Angelina has over 200 covers and 12 original songs on YT starting when she was 6. I would suggest that you check out Rusty Shackleford's RUclips channel He has every song she has done. He has a 'featured playlist section, one is every song but not in chronological order, rather by when they was posted on his channel, One is chronological order, but does not contain all the songs (do not know why). And the other list is her holiday music! As a fan since she was on Norway's Got Talent (and won) I do not think she has ever done a song that was not outstanding; but yes, many are masterpieces. I have tried many times to make a list starting with her songs at age 6 and making a list that I think is the best 3 or 4 for each year! I always get bogged down unable to decide which 3 or 4 for each year! This is the case for each age but especially true of her songs at age 10! Then there is the cases where she has done the same song multiple times such as Unchained Melody. She first did a short version at 9 on a TV show where she was interview about her book, Between Two Hearts, which is about why she does not wear shoes when performing, Then she did it at 10 or early 11. And now recently she has done it twice, once at what appears to have been a private performance, and on Sept. 22, 2023 during her sold out live concert in Portsmouth NH! Many of us that were there consider this performance her best performance of any song she has done! I personally consider it to have been the best performance of Unchained Melody ANYONE has ever done!
Gabriel Henrique (from Brazil, was child prodigy, incredible range & control)
Love it when reactors say "I'm Ready" ......No. No one is ever ready for this performance! Very good reaction, Look forward to many more Angelina reactions on your channel.
At 10yrs old she did a demo for a guy name baby fuzz song Holding out for you. Was not released but leaked, do to dealing with suicide at the end her mom would not let it go public, you should do that next
I love this reaction. If you want to react to all of her performances I hips that you have a whole lot of time. There are 200 plus of them out there.
Rusty Shackleford has an up to date chronological playlist on his channel. She has alot of performances, so it might take a little time.
Endlich!!!! Ich habe lange auf deine Beurteilung von I put a spell on you von Angelina Jordan gewartet! Sie und Dimash sind einfach genial!!! Was würde passieren wenn Dimash und Angelina gemeinsame Kinder hätten 😅??? Bei den Genen: begnadete Sänger wie die Welt noch nie gesehen hat😮😮😅
Most likely this is several takes as you can see some differences when she’s in the recording booth. The portion of her at the stand up mic could be her lip syncing to the playback.
However shortly after this she was known for doing her vocals in one take. Her homemade videos with just a guitarist are one take performances without rehearsal . (Guitarist Ivan Mendez said the only time they did a retake was if he messed up)
Obviously in songs where she also provides her own backing, harmony or overlapping vocals another take(s) would be needed. But primarily she is a one take performer. That may still be true with her new music.
Thank you for providing insights into Angelina Jordan's recording process. It's fascinating to learn about the evolution of her approach to recording. Performing in one take, especially without rehearsal, is a testament to her remarkable talent and confidence in her abilities.
The ability to capture a captivating performance in a single take is not only impressive but also adds a certain raw and authentic quality to the music. It's clear that Angelina has a unique and special connection to her craft, and her commitment to delivering genuine, one-take performances contributes to the emotional depth of her music.
I appreciate your input, and it's wonderful to hear more about the behind-the-scenes aspects of Angelina's recording journey. If there's anything else you'd like to share or discuss, feel free to let me know! 🎤✨
Bellísimas!!!!❤❤
Cristina de Bs As, Argentina
If you really wish to start at the beginning, you indicated when she was seven years old that’s when she was involved with Norway ‘s got talent. It
has been told that her very first soirée into a formal recording studio was when she was six years old singing “ I who have nothing”.
This particular recording indicated by Some that this was also a first take on singing the song. Now you have an insight into what to look forward to.
I wish that commentors would not give out false information. "I Who Have Nothing" was NOT the first time in the studio (there are at least 4 other, earlier performances there), but the first take with that song.
Great reaction
There are many great performances before age 9. I suggest you check out her 4 Norways Got Talent performances. She was 7 at the audition and turned 8 during the competition. What will amaze you is her vocal growth in just the 5 or 6 month span of the show. Even more incredible is that she is basically self taught. Her real early “training” came from studying RUclips videos of jazz greats.
Thank you for your kind words and the valuable information! It's always fascinating to witness the growth and development of young talents, and Angelina Jordan's journey on Norway's Got Talent sounds like an incredible testament to her natural abilities and dedication to her craft.
I appreciate the recommendation to check out her performances on Norway's Got Talent, especially considering the significant vocal growth you mentioned during the competition. It's truly remarkable that she is essentially self-taught, with early inspiration drawn from studying RUclips videos of jazz greats. This adds another layer of appreciation for her musical journey.
I'm excited to explore more of Angelina Jordan's earlier performances and witness the foundation of her extraordinary talent. If there are specific performances or moments you'd like to highlight, feel free to let me know. Thank you for sharing your insights! 🎤🌟
Please react to "Stay" She sings it beautifully and would like to hear your analysis because I'd love it even more. Just listening to you say you're going to watch her chronologically. That will be interesting and will be along for the ride.
❤
I love it when well educated people react to her. Thank you so much. 😊
I see someone put you to the Rusty Shackleford list.
Happy hunting ❤
Ren, “Hi Ren”. Dimash, Lara Fabian and Aida Garifullina in trio singing “Ti Amo Cosi”. The journey with Angelina is endless for me since I listen to her songs over and over again. Happy traveling, Carl. Howard Hand, Dallas Texas.
You're right. It was an insane and honest reaction. It is often said that she swore she wouldn't wear shoes to perform until all the children had shoes. But that's not correct. She herself said that she doesn't wear shoes as a reminder of the orphan girl and at the same time to remember all the children who were not lucky in life. She wrote it down in her diary and published this when she was 9 in 2015 as a book. So she was the youngest author in Norway
In this masterpiece Angelina pulls out all her tools, tools she shouldn't be allowed to have yet. Her musical knowledge and ability are absolutely remarkable for a child of 9 and are rarely accomplished by grown adults. It's impossible to keep considering a her a 'child singer' after this. She's just brilliant. You have a wonderful journey ahead, With over 200 videos to choose from. Have fun.😎
AJ is what genius looks like.
She also did the arrangement for this
Welcome to the Angelina rabbit hole. She's angelic 🪽 she sings the songs with emotions to come out...
Thank you for the warm welcome to the Angelina rabbit hole! I completely understand why people find her performances captivating and angelic. It's truly remarkable how she infuses so much emotion into her singing, creating a connection with the audience that goes beyond just the music. Angelina's ability to convey emotions through her voice is indeed something special. I'm glad to be exploring her talent and appreciate your enthusiasm for her incredible artistry! 🎶✨
Wordsmith… really enjoyed your reaction. You have officially entered the AJ rabbit hole. It is clear that you recognize her genius and talent. I have subscribed to experience your journey. Thanks.
Thanks for the amazing reaction. You would enjoy The Fairy Voice Mother, she’d be your cup of tea. Her reaction to this was sublime too. Hope you enjoy the next 200 of Angelina’s videos 😍
You're very welcome! I'm glad you enjoyed the reaction. Thank you for the recommendation regarding The Fairy Voice Mother-I'll definitely check out her reactions, and it's always great to connect with fellow Angelina Jordan enthusiasts.
Your enthusiasm is contagious, and I'm looking forward to exploring more of Angelina's incredible performances. With so much talent and variety in her repertoire, I'm sure the next 200 videos will be just as captivating. Feel free to share more recommendations or insights anytime, and thanks again for being part of this wonderful community! 😊🎶
Master piece ❤
Another Great Reaction And Analysis 👍🙏👣💯
Thank you for reacting to the young legend, Angelina Jordan! 😊😊😊😊
As an alternative to the very long chronological playlist compiled by Rusty Shackleford that several people will be pointing you to, you might want to consider one of the playlists on my channel that I've compiled specifically for people who want to take a chronological approach to her stuff but don't want to spend forever catching up to "the present". These can be found on my "home" page, in the first section called "Angelina Jordan recommendations":
* "Catch up with Angelina Jordan (a short chronology)" - 36 videos covering ages 7 through 16
* "Damn, Girl! The Best of Angelina Jordan Volume 1" - 23 videos, 8 to 17
* "Angelina Jordan: just one song per year" - 11 videos, 7 to 17
Although I had slightly different selection criteria in mind when I made these three lists, there is significant overlap between them. You can, I think, safely choose between the three simply based on the number of videos you want to go through in your "first pass" through her vast catalog.
(OBTW, there's another playlist in there called "The Many Voices of Angelina Jordan", which might sound like it's perfect for your purposes, but it's not. It's not ordered chronologically by her age and it has way too many videos for a "first pass" [59 of them]. It could be good choice for a _second_ pass through her stuff, though.)
Thank you so much for providing these alternative playlists and thoughtful recommendations! It's evident that you've put a lot of effort into curating content for those who want a chronological approach to Angelina Jordan's incredible journey. Your playlists seem like fantastic resources for anyone looking to catch up on her evolution as an artist without spending an overwhelming amount of time.
I'll make sure to direct viewers to your channel and these playlists, acknowledging the value they offer in terms of a more streamlined and manageable chronological exploration of Angelina's performances. Your dedication to organizing and sharing these playlists is commendable, and I'm sure many fans will find them extremely helpful. Thanks again for contributing to the Angelina Jordan community in such a positive and supportive way! 🌟🎶
Now you realise her light breathy tone in BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY.... it was all a choice ....all control...and yes ..choices. Thats what makes her one of the greats.
You asked for a chronological list of Angelina's works. Rusty Shackleford put together a list of her songs in chronological order on his channel. Here's the link: ruclips.net/p/PL2v8kgVeo4EbYDVnRwObjETfWpXbzbgIO Happy hunting. We're here to support your journey. Peace.
Rusty's list is great - if you did around RUclips, TikTok, and Instagram you will find even more ;)
@@robertsilva631 yes exactly. If you count everything, the real number would be over 400. And new stuff is coming out constantly. Yesterday she dropped a 5-song Christmas EP.
@@Sarah-bc8rjp976 Yes - if you count all the shorts and snippets - I purchased and downloaded the Christmas EP just a few hours after it was released.
It will take too long to go through all of her. Covers
BUT, you could select a good few from each age
.. You will find that she was at master class level by the age of 10.
She is 9 yrs Old One of her Classic Covers She has Done. Its Unbelivable and Out of the World. The Confidence, warmth She puts entire soul into the Song and then She Sings makes you equally a Part of the Song. How Many Today's singer have the Ability. One in the Million or Billion.
Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts! I completely agree with you; Angelina Jordan's talent is truly exceptional. It's remarkable how she brings so much depth and emotion to her performances at such a young age. Her confidence, warmth, and ability to connect with the audience are indeed rare qualities. It's wonderful to witness such a unique and gifted artist in the world of music. I appreciate your comment and couldn't agree more with your sentiments!
I,love Angelina. Following her for years. As you told you want to study the masters. Their is someone who inspired Dimash when he was young. He learned a lot from her and sang together. This artist is a Belgian/Canadian singer with an Italian mother. Her name is Lara Fabian. She is one of the great femal voices and has great technique. She’s really wants to work as a didacticus and mentor but still tours as she is around 59 now. Dimash covered some of her originals and she wrote songs for him. Their is a beautiful concert on u tube and the internet ‘from Lara with Love’. All songs are great (also to study technique). Lara is well known in all parts of the world except. USA (has something to do with Céline as they say). Love from Belgium.
Great preparation and presentation. I subscribe for more Angelina reactions.
The squeal is an inhale ... I'm told.
I'm looking forward to your AJ journey.

You are a new rising star on the reaction sky. I subscribed after your 2 Angelina reactions.
You are the first who used the term musical IQ! Like, and waited for that a while now. I like a lot that you dedicate and state that you want to analyze her whole catalogue chronologically! I am in for your ride
Someone already wrote, i repeat, (hope you read all the comments): check Rusty Shacklefords channel. And his playlist(s). You will get your chronological AJJ (Angelina Jordan Journey).
If you do a reaction per week and just stay to these 5 top vocalists... You're on work for the next decade to reach status 2023😅😂...
Till then i guess, the Queen of Jazz and Reincarnation of Music will have taken over the music industry. And by taken over i mean like a cake: dropped head over heels after baking is finished and ready to be eaten up.

Watch out: skip the first 15/16 if you want to start at the beginning.
Great reaction to a vocal tour-de-force! This history-making performance is as unnerving as it is magnificent!! You've done it now. You have now completely fallen into the vortex of Angelina Jordan who arguably brings the most confident, versatile, seemingly effortless, and fearless vocal artistry found today (whether measured across artists, genres, or decades). You may think this an exaggeration but listen to a few more of her many performances (170+ covers plus original songs - all on YT) and you will see! She has been performing at a high level all over the world since age 8 when she won Norway's Got Talent singing Billie Holiday, Nancy Sinatra, and Gershwin. It is the rare singer that can, as Angelina has done, go from Queen to "Screamin" Jay Hawkins to Adele to Elvis to Whitney Houston to Michael Jackson to Etta James to James Brown to Amy Winehouse to the Beatles (and many others in between) and do them all justice!
If you want to hear music, listen to anyone. If you want to feel music, listen to Angelina. She will stagger you with her ability to find and bring forth the 'essence', the emotional message of nearly any song. You have far to go with Angelina. She is equally comfortable and equally able to impact us whether singing a cappella, accompanied only by a piano or guitar, in front of professional studio musicians or a 40-piece military band. With her immense vocal toolkit, arranging ability (yeah, that too, since about 8yo or so) and the work ethic to make what she does only 'seem' effortless, she will hopefully be touching hearts for a long time to come.
Why God has performed the miracle of touching the world with one of such talent, musical IQ, commitment, and generosity as Angelina we can wonder but we must all marvel. Welcome aboard the AJ train! Please react to more of her impressive library.
You asked for chronological list of Angelina's incredible body of work. Here you go: www.dimlylit.net/aja/
Thank you so much for your heartfelt and passionate comment! I can sense the depth of your admiration for Angelina Jordan and the impact her music has had on you. Your description of her as a "confident, versatile, seemingly effortless, and fearless vocal artist" is compelling, and it's clear that she has left an indelible mark on you.
I truly appreciate the link to the chronological list of Angelina's work. It will be an invaluable resource as I continue to explore and react to her incredible body of work. Your insights into her versatility, emotional delivery, and the sheer breadth of genres she covers are enlightening, and I look forward to experiencing more of these musical journeys with Angelina.
It's always wonderful to connect with fellow music enthusiasts, and I'm grateful for your warm welcome aboard the AJ train! I'm eager to delve deeper into Angelina Jordan's artistry and share the joy of her music with others. Thank you again for your thoughtful comment and for sharing your passion! 🌟🎤
Another incredible singer is Daneliya Tulyeshova from Kazakhstan. Watch her sing "Stone Cold" when she was 10 years old on voice.kids. How can these kids sing this way??!! She's 17 now and still singing amazingly.
Go plug somewhere else. He'll find her on his own. Its nothing personal, but I've grown tired of people pulling this crap in the comment sections. Its rude.
Word Smith indeed! Wonderfully articulate, perceptive and knowledgeable analysis. Thanks!
AJ has around 200 videos including around 15 originals with a steady stream of new releases. On this one, I am impressed by her emotional maturity and sensitivity where she takes Jay's theatrical exuberance and transforms it into feelings aligned with the story; angst and anger against betrayal. So she not only relates emotionally but she can convincingly convey those feelings in a song. Of all those who have performed this song, she may be the only one who has done that while maintaining Jay's emotional intensity.
They put something in the water in Norway 🇳🇴 😏
Hey Carl awesome analysis. However, if you go back and listen to the "squeal" again you'll find she actually did an inhaled scream. Way more impressive than a simple squeal. Meaning she could shape her throat to make the desired note.
I hope this reactor reads this..I think he missed it..
I haven’t had that much fun watching a reaction in ages. The looks on your face expressed it all. And the way you discussed what she is doing was brilliant. Her voice ‘is’ from the 50’s & 60’s. It comes from influences like Screamin Jay here, Billie Holiday. her most cherished favorite influence, followed closely by Whitney Houston, Etta James. Elvis and on and on from there. Her voice developed from all these influences and she just understood it immediately. Musical Genius in my opinion. I have often said she has had a grasp of Music History few could match. For her it’s instinctual. Your explanations of her techniques were some of the best I have ever heard. So easy to understand. I appreciate that.
That growling is the stuff of dreams. Music IQ off the charts. It’s next level. I’ve never heard it described that way and I’d say it fits her to a T. I'd start at 6 yrs old. 1st time in studio. 'I Who Have Nothing'
6yr 1st Studio ruclips.net/video/OtPkxHf_r0M/видео.html Fire! 🔥🔥🔥♥👣
Exactly my thought, great new reactor and I recommend the same song.
A masterclass from a 9 year old, and she is still giving them, Cakra (Chakra) Khan is definely worth a listen to, particularly his rendition of Tennessee Whisky. You may also want to listen to one of Dimash's icons, Lara Fabian, who along with Angelina, is a storyteller beyond compare
