Wow, we’re all so excited and happy that you’ve discovered Angelina Jordan always know you can play any video that you see of hers. We look forward to seeing your reactions. Please keep reacting to Angelina Jordan.
You just stumbled on to the most soulful vocalist of my lifetime & I've been addicted to her music for 6 years. Liked & subed for more Angelina reactions.
There's about 50 with here much younger that will floor you and as great as this is, you haven't seen nothing yet! Be careful, must everyone changes! And Welcome abord.
Yay, another Aussie discovers the most amazing young artist i have heard in my lifetime. She has a catalogue of incredible performances from 6 years old to her present age of 18 years. I would love for you to learn more about this young lady and why we, her ANGELS, love her as both an artist and a wonderful human being.
You found a treasure. Angelina is like a rose in the music desert. She is for me personally the best singer on Earth, no doubt. And she is just 18 years old. Thank you for reacting to her.
No one like her .. not in my life time. It's much more than her vocal mastery. She will transport you. Thank you for reacting to her. I hope you will review more of her music.
Hello, "Swiftheart," Just wanna say, "What a lovely song," ( a favorite of mine ). " Lovely performer, lovely reaction, most of all, what a very lovely reactor." Thank you. Have a lovely day.❤❤❤🇵🇭
You have fallen down the Angelina rabbit hole. You will never come out until you have watched all her 150+ videos. Once you have achieved that, you too can call yourself an Angelina fan, or Angels as they are called. Geoff from London UK
Welcome to the wonderful world of Angelina Jordan. This young woman has been singing literally all her life and since winning "Norway's Got Talent" when she was 7 or 8 (her birthday is in January) she's recorded over 200 covers and original songs. I see that others have already been posting recommendations and playlists. It doesn't matter whether you go back to her first performances as a gap-toothed little girl, or her more recent recordings, you're going to fall down one of the most pleasant rabbit holes you've ever seen. You soon get over being shocked at how good Angelina is, but you never stop being amazed. And keep a box of tissues handy. She sings with such emotion that you WILL be in tears sooner or later.
Now 18, Angelina was still 17 in this performance at the Nobel Peace Prize tribute concert last December. She entered Norways Got Talent at age 7 and won, having turned 8 by the end of the competition. Appeared on America’s Got Talent the Champions at age 13 and received the Golden Buzzer for her amazing rendition of Bohemian Rhapsody. She signed with Republic Records at 14. She is not more well known as she has yet to be fully promoted as her family wanted her to have as normal a childhood as possible. Her career is starting to ramp up. She recessed a 6 song EP of all originals last summer and had two concert performances in Las Vegas a few weeks ago.
Timeless, eloquent, exquisite and stunningly beautiful. Angelina encompasses all these wonderful attributes as she navigates through this most iconic classic song. Angelina demonstrated such grace, poise and reverence in delivering a performance for the ages at the prestigious Nobel Peace prize event in Oslo, Norway. She is singing to the recipients of this award with the father and siblings in attendance because the award winner Marge's Mohammadi is currently imprisoned in Iran because she is a woman's rights activist. Angelina is singing directly to them with a live concert audience, the world famous Norwegian orchestra Kork and a TV national audience of millions. This is Angelina in her true element. A gracefully wonderful and extremely talented artist. Remember in this video Angelina is only 17 years old and sounds like an angel that God has let us have for a few moments in time to bring us a moment of pure heaven and this is who Angela is to all her angels as we are known around the world. Angelina, you must understand loved dearly because she is a very humble, sincere, compassionate and loving soul. This is who she is and always has been since her childhood . She starting in the crib singing at the age of one and a half and recording in the studio at 6 years old and now at 18 is becoming a global superstar for all of us to enjoy. I want to thank you personally for posting this beautiful gem and I hope you can continue on Angelina's journey of joy and happiness as we all have over the years. Sending you much thanks and love from Canada 👍🇨🇦🇨🇦❤️❤️❤️
I sincerely believe that the more I listen to Angelina the better person I have become. She doesn't just touch my heart, she enters it completely and helps me drive out every fear, hurt and resentment ever stored there. I'm fairly confident that many other Angels feel the same. Thanks for your heartfelt reaction.
Norwegian born Angelina Jordan began singing at the age of one and a half, and by age three was listening to jazz and classics legends on repeat. Her grandmother was her greatest influence, but Angelina chose her own path. Her first studio performance was at age 7, singing I Who Have Nothing. She won Norway's Got Talent at the age of only 8, singing old time classics from Billie Holliday and George Gershwin, and became one of the youngest ever vocalists to win an international Got Talent Show! Her performance at 9 years old of Screamin Jay Hawkins, I Put a Spell on You is considered one of the finest recordings ever of a 9-year-old vocalist! Angelina also went viral on America's Got Talent the champions in 2020 with her unique versions of Bohemian Rhapsody and Goodbye Yellow Brick Road. Angelina sings in English which unbelievably is her third language! She is a true prodigy. She is now 18, and has recorded a huge library of songs, including covers and several originals. A major attraction to Angelina's music is the emotion and attitude she conveys, although she has not experienced the life events! She is known as the barefoot princess of 1,000 voices as she can adjust her tone, style, and register for any song or genre. She was signed by Republic Records when she was 14. She was not widely promoted for a few years, as her family wanted to allow her a normal childhood. However, things are changing rapidly as she has now graduated school. She has released two original music video singles from Republic Records, Love Don't Let Me Go, and Now I'm the Fool, coinciding with her new six song EP called Old Enough. The four other songs have been released as visualizers. A world tour is in the works, likely to coincide with her full album release. Here is a semi-chronological RUclips playlist for Angelina of over 200 songs, beginning with 16 performances including originals, her EP, and a few specialty songs. Then it starts chronologically beginning with Gloomy Sunday from Norway's Got Talent. ruclips.net/p/PL2v8kgVeo4EbQD6l_WAVjOfItquzW7oEc&si=HrEm55lV164yKJqu Why does Angelina sing barefoot? The answer may bring a tear to your eye. It is related to a promise she made to herself and to the world when she was only 6 years old. She was traveling in the Middle East with her mom and grandmother and they came across a young orphan girl with no shoes and scarred feet. Angelina gave the girl her own favorite shoes. Angelina ask the girl what she wanted to be when she grew up and she said a doctor, but she could not because she had to take care of her siblings. She asked Angelina the same question and Angelina said I want to sing for the world. The young girl said she would pray for Angelina. Since then, Angelia has forever performed barefoot as a reminder of all those less fortunate. At age 9 she wrote a book about this experience, Between two Hearts, becoming the youngest ever published author in Norway. She also has helped raise millions for children's charities. She even stated at 8 years old that she would be donating her winnings from Norway's Got Talent to charities. She is a special individual, and one you cannot follow without developing an emotional bond. Angelina captures hearts because she is humble and has compassion for humanity. Her stated goal from childhood was to sing for the world and spread love and peace. I trust this will cause you to embrace her as millions of others have, and that you will continue down the rabbit hole from which you will not want to escape. Peace and love.
Angelina also performed Unchained Melody at her spectacular Las Vegas concerts. Please consider reacting to Angelina Jordans mesmerizing performances at her historic concerts at the Westgate in Las Vegas on Feb.29th. There are 4k video and hi rez audio by Merrilee Gaines of some of Angelina Jordans performances from this concert including the must watch One Moment In Time, and her new anthem masterpiece Princess of Ruins. Other spectacular videos of this concert by James Thiel of some of Angelinas performances from this concert including Diamonds are Forever, Hero, When We Were Young, Mercy and Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down) also BigAngieFan has 4k Princess of Ruins and 1080P All I Ask!
Angelina does a lot of amazing performances, but this beautiful tribute she expressed here so elegantly with so much emotion, I am continually overwhelmed with emotion myself, no matter that I've heard her sing this tribute over and over again, always with tears, just like you.
You will never forget this day you discovered Angelina Jordan. She is the finest female vocalist to ever live. There has never been another with her combination of talents. Our barefoot Princess of a thousand voices, the Queen of Jazz. She is a gift to us all. English was her third language of 4. She is so much more than a prodigy. We will educate you here in the comments. Tears are allowed and expected. She is the ultimate storyteller in music. I am adding a piece that Andy Schell wrote about this performance on another channel. It gives real meaning to the importance of this ceremony. It was seen by millions on live worldwide TV in December 2023. @andyschnell58 2 months ago (edited) Thanks for your wonderful reaction to this beautiful, touching, respectful performance by Angelina Jordan. I greatly respect your commentary about the choices Angelina made for this performance. As always, it is about the song and the occasion, for Angelina. I thought "Unchained Melody" was an odd choice for this event, but have since learned the history of the song. More on that later. Certainly Angelina was thrilled to be performing back in her home country of Norway, where she is a national treasure, but this performance goes way beyond that honor. She first performed at the Save the Children event at the 2014 Peace Prize event, when she was 8 years old. Narges Mohammadi was this year's recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize. Narges, is currently on a hunger strike while imprisoned in Iran, for being an activist for women's rights. Her two children spoke on her behalf at this event. Most of the performers were Iranian. We know Angelina's grandmother, Mery Zamani, grew up in Iran and was a prodigy for painting and poetry. We can imagine the conversations Mery had with Angelina about Narges. This performance had to be extremely meaningful to Angelina and her family. I hope all the angels will spread the story of Narges and her mission, with the hope for change. In 1954, Alex North was contracted to compose the score for the prison film Unchained (released in 1955). North had a melody he had written in the 1930s and composed and recorded the score when he was asked to write a song based upon the movie's theme. North asked Hy Zaret to write the lyrics. After first refusing, Zaret and North together wrote "Unchained Melody. Zaret refused the producer's request to include the word "unchained" in his lyrics. The song eventually became known as the "Unchained Melody" even though the song does not actually include the word "unchained". Instead, Zaret chose to focus on someone who pines for a lover he has not seen in a "long, lonely time". The film centered on a man who contemplates either escaping from prison to live life on the run, or completing his sentence and returning to his wife and family. So indeed this song fits along with Narges being in prison and her two children, and the rest of the people who embrace freedom, calling for her release. Note: It has been 9 years since Narges has seen her twin daughter and Son and her Husband.
Oh boy, you are going to be bombarded by her fans called Angels that will fill you in on this music prodigy with an old soul from Norway. She's basically been a star since she was 7 years old. First and foremost, she is a jazz singer but has the ability to sing any genre. She also does all of her own musical arrangements. Even though she has been compared by many to Amy Winehouse, her major influence is Billie Holiday. Other influences are Dinah Washington, Louis Armstrong, Frank Sinatra, Elvis Presley, Etta James, Amy Winehouse, Whitney Houston, and Adele to name a few. Her love of jazz came from her grandmother playing jazz music around her when she was young. In 2014, she entered at age 7 and won Norway's Got Talent at the age of 8. With her new found fame, she used it to appear on many shows from abroad and help raise millions for the less fortunate children around the world. At age 13, she was invited to participate on America's Got Talent: The Champions in 2020. She shocked the audience and the judges with her rendition of Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen. She received a standing ovation from all and got the Golden Buzzer from judge Heidi Klum to go straight to the Finals. Her performance went viral and even the group Queen responded on Twitter by saying, "Wow, what a rendition!" For Queen to respond to someone covering one of their songs is quite a feat since they rarely react to anyone. She did not win, but her fan base grew and expanded her popularity. Now 18 years old, living in Los Angeles, and currently signed with Republic Records, whose clients include Taylor Swift, Ariana Grande, The Weeknd, and Drake to name a few. Her family and Republic Records had agreed not to heavily promote her just yet so she can live as normal of a life as possible and finish her schooling. From what we know, she is finally done with school. She had a single that came out May 5th called Love Don't Let Me Go, a new EP called Old Enough that came out Friday, July 21st, 2023, a newly released video of her new song called Now I'm The Fool, and a new album of original music which will be coming out early next year. Angelina just recently released her new single, Our Time, and is fantastic! She returned back to Norway and performed at a number of sold out concerts in which fans from around the world came to see her. Many of the fans there said she sounded better live in person and was a once in a lifetime experience. On September 22, 2023, Angelina had her first U.S. concert that sold out in Portsmouth, New Hampshire. On December 11, 2023, she was asked to come back and perform at the Nobel Peace Prize Concert. She first performed at this prestigious event in 2014 when she was 8. On Feb.29th, 2024, she performed 2 shows on one night at the Westgate Las Vegas Resort and Casino. Her fans call her The Barefoot Princess. She always performs with no shoes when she sings. Why? The reason is very special. When she was 6 years old, she was traveling with her family in Iran where she met a poor shoeless girl in the streets that was about her age. She made money by weighing people. After speaking with her for a few minutes, Angelina noticed the scars on the girl's feet and asked the girl what her dream is. The girl said she wanted to be a doctor but she couldn't because she had to make money for her family. Angelina did what came natural to her, she gave the little girl her shoes and told her to not give up on her dreams. The girl then asked Angelina what her dreams were, Angelina answered that she wanted to sing for the whole world, and the girl said she would pray for her success. Since then, Angelina has performed barefoot in honor of that little girl and to those who are less fortunate around the world. She keeps this promise to this day. One of the reasons why we love her so much!
She won Norways got talent as a 7yo her gobsmacking performance on Americas got talent was amazing as a 14yo singing Boheman Rhapsody like you have never heard it before wow.
I follow her since her participation in norway got talent , she was just six to seven years age , and sing acapella on im a fool to love you …..it is just blow your mind
The seven and eight year old performances on NGT were all absolutely fantastic. I didn't see and hear them until 2017, but when I heard those 4 covers they made me a fan for life. Honestly, "Summertime" was my first listen and I became an Angel after only one note. 👼
She is already an artist for the big occasions with e.g. The new FIFA World Cup's official anthem, in addition to several major performances. Like few artists, she has performed for the Nobel Peace Prize at the age of 8 and 17. And 2 shows in Las Vegas ... She is 18 today. 250 songs both covers and original to listen to! She has had many live performances. The remaining members of Queen allowed her to copyright her arrangement of Bohemian Rhapsody!
She has been singing since she was 1 and 1/2. Entered Norway's Got Talent at age 7 and eventually won the competition going away with 46% of the votes. Song selection: 1 Billie Holiday's Gloomy Sunday (Audition) 2 Billie Holiday's I'm A Fool To Want You (a capella) 3 Nancy Sinatra's Bang Bang I Shot My Baby Down 4 George Gershwin's Summertime

Hi Swift, even if you already got some comments with good information allow me sending you my "standard newbies comment" (SNC) - maybe you can find some for you new information in it ;-) So, here is my SNC: Welcome to the universe of Angelina Jordan and thanks a billion for this nice reaction to her - I'm sure to hear more reactions to her from you! ...because it is... ...too late! From now on you are assimilated in Angelina's entourage! Resistance is futile... Even if you won't believe it and if you are in denial about it: Only listen to one song sung by Angelina Jordan and you are hooked on listening her voice! Maybe you aren't aware of it yet... a legend says in rare cases there are humans who can resist.... but I can't believe it 😏 Every time it's a pleasure to watch people reacting to Angelina Jordan - especially when it is the first time - and I hope to see more of your reactions on Angelina Jordan... 😏 So a little Question: When you react to her cover "I put a spell on you" b/w studio version at 9yo (ruclips.net/video/nwFloCPXzCs/видео.html - btw. like here she made most of her cover arrangements by herself! ..at the beginning she made her last changes for the piano arrangement and gave her "wishes" to the band leader..) it would be nice to react in the same reaction video IN ADVANCE to the original from Screemin' Jay Hawkins (from 1956 - Live: ruclips.net/video/7kGPhpvqtOc/видео.html or another version of it: ruclips.net/video/orNpH6iyokI/видео.html and here a version from 1990 in Tokyo - I feel, this is like the version Angelina has taken as the model, but I don't know it ( 😏 ): ruclips.net/video/Bb9ag8bch_U/видео.html or as Audio-Studio-Version: ruclips.net/video/82cdnAUvsw8/видео.html) that's real fun :-D - and than you will find out that Angelinas cover is a virtuoso tribute to Jay Hawkins :-D At the beginning you see her something writing on a sheet and a man reading it and smiles than.. in an interview this man, who was the "bandleader", said, this were some "wishes" from Angelina (she was every time very polite he said) for changes of her arrangement for the piano 😃) The candle you can see at about 0:12 shows a portrait of J. Hawkins - I think her grandma bought it at a concert in Tokyo 😏 At 0:26 you can see the bassist smiling - I can imagine that he smiles about the expectable reactions of the listeners in the moment, when Angelina starts to sing at 0:30 😏 Btw. I read somewhere that her grandma was in person at a concert of SJH in Japan (as she, AJs mother and uncle lived there some years - AJs grandpa is Japanese) and there AJs grandma bought this candle as a souvenir 😏 ...I hope this story isn't a HOAX 😃 Maybe you wonder, what videos you should next react to 😏 ... Furthermore there is a big pile of over 170 videos on RUclips with Angelina Jordans rehearsals, covers and originals... and each and every one is worth to listen and to react to - even the very early recordings when she was 6 yo! She is born January 10th 2006 in Oslo/Norge (English is her 3rd language 😏), sung her first notes of a Whitney Houston song with 18 months (link see down), started researching the internet for Jazz 3 yo, entered Norske Talenter (Norwegian Got Talent) 7 yo and won it 8 yo, was on AGT The Champions (recorded Oct. 2019, aired Jan. 2020) where she didn't won - some rumours say because she/her mother didn't sign the contract with the enterprise of Simon Cowell for to stay independent - meanwhile she has signed with Republic Records (musicnorway.no/aktuelt/industry-talk-michael-astar ). Btw. her full name is Angelina Jordan Astar, but in most occasions she is introduced as Angelina Jordan - she herself answered in the audition of Norske Talenter her name is "Angelina Jordan"… 😏 First of all, here are the official channels of her and the most known fan club: Angelina Jordan Official - ruclips.net/channel/UC1Pwa4nFvIPbtYVLcBGDpjA Angelina Jordan Cover Channel - ruclips.net/channel/UCv-QOBc_N1xb8dTwqazD9Kg Angelina Jordan VEVO Channel - ruclips.net/channel/UCD9xBPlntT45VN6dY1LNhng Angelina Jordan Fanclub Mosarz - ruclips.net/channel/UChM_lpT4shdnsez93QMJPig her website: www.angelinajordanofficial.com/ (on this web site you can find also her accounts on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter) her TikTok-channel: www.tiktok.com/@angelinajordana and the site of Republic Records with her introduction: www.republicrecords.com/artists/angelina-jordan Some links from the big pile: Here the short doku with her singing at 1,5yo (see her singing at this age at 1:52-2:10): ruclips.net/video/VJjG68Dfr-8/видео.html (One of?)

So, she is a real all-rounder and I think all her fans are eager to see and hear what she is doing next... All the other things like more recommendation, chronological playlists and so on you can read in the comments of the mega-fans like Fernando F., Rusty (AJ videos in chronological order ruclips.net/channel/UC55am_6Y5-Fj4ri8xOInstA), Andy Schnell, ... Thanks a billion again for your reaction! … and see you soon with your next AJ reactions - with greetings from Berlin/Germany 😃 Best regards Andreas 😎
Loved your reaction as well. I am another fellow New Zealander. I see another fan has asked you to watch Angelina sing Bohemian Rhapsody. In AGT. The judges ask Angelina about singing in Norways Got talant. This is where Angelina began to be known around the world 10 years ago at 7/8 years old. I only going to tell you, it is a very pleasant surprise.
Angelina Jordan gives us an emotional, subtle performance and makes many musical choices appropriate for this occasion. n Angelina's performance at the Nobel Peace Prize tribute concert in Norway for laureate (winner) Narges Mohammad, the Iranian woman in jail for her stance on women's rights. This will become an iconic performance of Unchained Melody.
For anybody new to Angelina, who wants to get to know her quickly, I created this playlist with 11 songs from age 7 to 17 (plus a recent feature about her): ruclips.net/p/PLddfS789jBCrSUcMxwCiHeJi8A9zN5xt3 1. Gloomy Sunday, her 2013 audition to Norway's Got Talent, when she was 7, which was aired in 2014 and then immediatly went viral. 2. Fly Me to the Moon, live on The View, was her US debut later in 2014, and also went viral. It gathered more than 37 Million views on RUclips, and many more on Facebook. 3. I Put a Spell On You, the song where Screamin' Jay Hawkins got his nickname from, has 11 Million Views so far. Her cover is closer to his original than most well known covers of it. She was 9 years old here. 4. Feeling Good, in a version sung on TV in 2016 while still being 10 years old, though she already started to perform the song in public about a year earlier. 5. A Million Years Ago, one of 13 Adele covers she did, as an impressive acoustic home studio recording. 6. Shield, from 2018, was the third original she relased that year at 12 years old. It is about the protection and support she gets from her family. 7. Bohemian Rhapsody, in her own stripped down arrangement on AGT the Champions Season 2, wowed everyone, including the group Queen themselves, who twittered "Wow, what a performance of Bohemian Rhapsody!" 8. Million Miles, which she wrote and produced together with Stargate, is about the loss of a close person (her grandfather), and was the first song she released 2020 with Republic Records. 9. 7th Heaven, her 2nd song with RR from 2021, is encouraging people to persue their dreams, like she did. 10. Suspicious Minds, done 2022, is an Elvis cover as unique as Bohemian Rhapsody was. 11. Love Don't Let Me Go, her third release with Republic Records, and the first new song on her recently released EP "Old Enough" of total 6 new original songs. If you are more interested in her recent performances, here is a playlist containing releases and performances from her last 3 years, including all titels from "Old Enough", and her even more recently released Christmas EP: ruclips.net/p/PLddfS789jBCqMgW5xQeK97nibjJCeDme5 She cites Billy Holiday as her biggest influence. And she covered more songs from Adele than by any other artist, followed by Amy Winehouse, Elvis, and Sam Smith.
Welcome to the birth of a legend. Here’s a little background info on Angelina. “When I sing I go to another world. The world is endless. It's like, full of happiness. I love it. It's amazing. And when I am on stage, I don't want to go [leave the stage]. [laughing]. I just want to be on stage" A snippet of Skaylan’s interview of Angelina Jordan (age 12) on Norwegian TV - November 2018. ♥👣👸🏻🎷 What you will soon realize is that Angelina today at 18 Angelina is already the best Jazz singer on the Planet! IMO Soon to be one of the Best Vocalists of All Time. ♥👣👸🏻 Angelina won Norway's Got Talent when she was 8 yrs old after starting the competition at 7 yrs old. The youngest winner of any Got Talent show on the planet. She had to wait two years because you had to be 7 yrs old to enter. She started with a rendition of Billie Holiday's 'Gloomy Sunday' which she just infused with Billie's soul. She followed this by another Billie classic with a pitch perfect rendition of 'I'm a Fool to Want You' acapella. Her next performance was a beautiful rendition of 'Bang, Bang' by Sonny & Cher and performed most famously by Nancy Sinatra. She won the competition with what I consider her first Masterpiece performance of 'Summertime' by George Gershwin. Shortly after winning she was designated a National Treasure by the Norwegian people. ♥👣👸🏻 There is video of Angelina recorded by her mother Sarah Astar singing a couple of lines of "I Will Always Love You' by Whitney Houston when she was 18 months old. She started studying all the greats of Jazz soon after under the guidance of her Iranian Grandmother Mery Zamani a child prodigy in her own right as an artist and poet. English is Angelina's 3rd language behind Norwegian and Farsi along with Japanese and some German and perhaps more. She did this from 2 & 3 yrs old by scrolling thru RUclips of all their most Iconic performance. Angelina doesn't just mimic these greats, she reinterprets them and then simply sings them the way they were meant to be sung. She makes them her own. Angelina was begging her mother to go on "that Simon show" when she was 3 yrs old. encouraged to sing children songs, she would have none of that. Angelina chooses her own songs and she is absolutely fearless. No song is too big and no artist is too Iconic. All the most Iconic songs by the most Iconic singers in music history. Angelina has said singing to her is as important to her as breathing. ♥👣👸🏻 She will sing anything Acapella at any time and often does. Her Tic-Toc is full of these impromptu performances wherever she might be whether in the car, walking around the neighborhood or in a parking Garage. Accompanied by most often a simple guitar or piano her performances are always incredible. Add a band or even a full orchestra as in her performance for Quincy Jones at his request singing his arrangement of 'Fly Me to the Moon'. The same arrangement he did for Frank Sinatra. This opened for his 85th birthday celebration at the 02 Arena in London. ♥👣👸🏻 She is well known worldwide in the industry. Her family and Angelina have been holding back turning down many of the biggest in the industry while she finishes school. Remember she just turned 18 January 10th. They finally signed with Republic Records about 4 years ago after getting a deal that gave her control of her artistic vision and has since released 2 originals, 'Million Miles' & '7th Heaven' plus the opening soundtrack for the New Movie "The Hating Game" with her song 'Mercy' performed most notably by Duffy. Republic has labeled her their Highest Priority and assigned a team to her including Rob Christy a multiple Grammy Winner, often on the piano in many of her performances and a whole team of equally qualified professionals. She has worked with some of the best musicians in the industry and always get exactly what she wants. Some call her the Boss and have immense respect for her. She recently dropped Her EP 'Old Enough' which includes 6 original tracks. She has been indicating she will be releasing another EP of originals by Christmas. She has been diligently perfecting her craft since winning Norway's Got Talent singing all over the world, Germany, Japan, Korea as well as TV appearances such as The View, Little Big Shots and most notably America's Got Talent where she premiered her Iconic Performance of 'Bohemian Rhapsody' which Queen gave her the copyright for. Her version is available on iTunes and Spotify & is included on her Album 'Magic' which she released on her own along with a Christmas Song collection. After Heidi's golden buzzer for her audition of BR, Angelina went directly to the finals where she sang YBR. After the "secret voting", she placed 6th in the competition and was eliminated from the competition. After first refusing to sign with AGT because of contract demands, a re-worked contract was eventually signed which freed Angelina from any commitments or record deal if she performed. She has also sung for Many Heads of State including Barack Obama and a couple of songs opening for Norah Jones in Korea. She also sang at the Nobel Peace Prize Concert at 8 yrs old for Malala and another recipient. Mostly she has sung for charities helping raise millions for children charities and climate change. The great part is that most of it has been well documented often by herself and her family. Her Grandmother who introduced her to Jazz at 3 & 4 yrs old is behind the camera more than anyone else. Love the reactions. Get ready for a deep dive. She is worth it! Love from the Land of Vikings ♥👣👸🏻
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a thoughtful comment. I look forward to some more Angelina Jordan reactions. She is phenomenal! 🇦🇺👋🙏
@@SwiftReactions 👼🏩📚 Hold on. I was about to make a snarky comment about how... errr... ...intense... and verbose... certain fans can be, snark which was going to include a reference to Swifties, then I noticed [gasp] _the_ _name_ _of_ _this_ _channel_ *WTF* ⁉ NOOoo ooooo... eject! eject! ✈💥🪂
Very nice reaction. Two things I would suggest. First, honor the artist with a link to the original video in your description. This helps you with the RUclips algorithm also. Second, create a playlist for each artist.
Great reaction and comments! Angelina is from Norway, but she lives now in LA, USA. Yes, her performances are captivating. It would have been interesting to see your reaction to a song I often return to, Every Time We Say Goodbye, sung by the 10-year-old Angelina. The Norwegian presenter says they are happy to hear this before Angelina travels to the US. That context gives this song extra depth. It was filmed on a rooftop in Oslo. You can find it here: ruclips.net/video/KRSI8HmTHJA/видео.html
Yes one of my favorites especially since right after that they flew to the US and she performed for the benefit concert for the Mattel Childrens Hospital in LA escorted there by Gene Simmons.
😊😊😊😊NEWS! - NEWS - NEWS! Please next from Angelina Jordan - "Bad Valentine" The newest song from Angelina is the rawest and most amazing song I've ever heard. We know that Angelina is a super mega vocalist, but this was so good and powerful that it can't actually be described in words. WARNING! That song will blow your socks off!
A tribute to nobel prize winner " narges mohammidi " who is serving a long prison sentence in iran for simply calling for freedom of expression for women and refusing to wear the higab .hence the restrained sombre performance from angelina , perfect song and performance for this nobel prize event .
Welcome to “The World Of Angelina Jordan Astar” (full name). “The Barefoot Princess With The Velvet Voice And A Mona Lisa Smile”. Born Jan 10, 2006 in Oslo Norway. From her audition on Norway’s Got Talent (2014 - age 7 - Gloomy Sunday "Billy Holiday") through the final on America’s Got Talent The Champions (2020 - age 13 - Goodbye Yellow Brick Road "Sir Elton John") and the 130+ videos in between you will not be disappointed. This includes three originals song: “What Is Life”, “Oslo” and “Shield” Since then she has done many new covers and now her new singles "Million Miles" and “7th Heaven”, along with her movie soundtrack "Mercy" from the motion picture “The Hating Game”. As well as her brilliant version of Elvis’s “Suspicious Mind”. She released her latest album “Old Enough” and it is definitely some of her best stuff. My personal favorite is her cover of Lana Del Rey's "Born To Die". Although the soundtrack is really growing on me.
Enjoyed your reaction very much! I hope this will be the 1st of many more reactions to Angelina, I cannot stress enough how very special this young woman is. Blessed with a talent for music that is just surreal, yet she is very humble and kind hearted. Hope to see more Angelina on your channel soon!
Welcome to a new Angel, most reactors will be told to watch her fantastic cover of Queens BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY at 13 years old or her cover of I Put A SPELL ON YOU at 9 years old, both her own arrangements as an intro to her music, but she has 200+ songs on RUclips all of them really good. I recommend you listen to her latest EP called Old Enough which she released in july 2023 6 songs every one a banger, she is a lyrical genius. Here is a link to one of them ruclips.net/video/8BXCVY_-RmU/видео.html She also just performed in Las Vegas on the 29 Feb were she had 2 consecutive shows singing 38 songs covers and originals, with fans attending from all over the world.

From Republic Records bio, Angelina said “Today, I sing barefoot as a reminder of all the kids in the world who need help and support.” See Angelina's book "Mellom to hjerter" (Between Two Hearts) for background story of 6-year old Angelina meeting shoeless girl to whom Angelina gave her shoes.

Angelina made Republic Records studio live video: ruclips.net/video/3KxvwuZ7oEM/видео.html) ---- 7th Heaven (co-wrote as 15-year old, Angelina said that “The song is a reminder to look at everything in a positive light and not get down on yourself. Most importantly-no matter what you’re doing-don’t give up. It’s also meant to make you dance.” Angelina made Republic Records studio live video: ruclips.net/video/bM8DzMRbiIc/видео.html) ---- Billie Jean (as 15-year old, Angelina completely turns Michael Jackson’s 1982 hit song on its head by doing a jazzy version that re-invents the song to something different than original: ruclips.net/video/xp67k9wk2Mw/видео.html) ---- You Say (as 15-year old, Angelina exquisitely covers Lauren Daigle’s hit song (over 6 million units sold) that won a Grammy Award and was lead song on her 2018 album Look Up Child: ruclips.net/video/9K8JOd4VIpk/видео.html) ---- My Funny Valentine (as 16-year old, music video shot in LA antique store and directed by Angelina.

Angelina is easily the best singer I’ve ever heard. Second place is not even close. I envy that you can start to discover how amazing she is. What you’d never know from this first exposure to Angelina is that she is one of the best jazz and blues singers you’ve ever heard. Just jump in anywhere. It doesn’t matter what age, what title, or what genre, but the best live performance I’ve ever seen is 13 year old Angelina with her own arrangement of Bohemian Rhapsody. It’s nothing like you could imagine, but it’s mesmerizingly beautiful. Here’s the link: ruclips.net/video/qF0JV28vgLw/видео.htmlsi=eojxKcN1SqlJi6gQ
Learning about the background of this performance makes it 10 times more impressive. Knowing she is singing it from the perspective of the Nobel Peace prize winner, Iranian human rights activist, Narges Mohammidi, to her children as she is serving a prison sentence for women's rights in Iran. Angelina, by replacing the strong vocal belting with gentle and delicate handling has transformed the song from a romantic love song to an imprisoned mothers love song of yearning for her children. This was one of her latest songs, done this year. Another transformation of a song was one in her top 10 as a child, Screamin Jay Hawkins' 1956 "I Put a Spell on You" , changing it from a theatrical stage performance to a serious jazz song arranged by her when she was only 9 years old. ruclips.net/video/nwFloCPXzCs/видео.html
Great 1st reaction to my all time favorite singer 🙂 I think you've done it now.... Hehe It's kinda hard to leave her once you've heard her, she is unlike any other artist you have ever seen or heard, I promise. I have subscribed in sheer anticipation for more reactions to her. She was 17 here, maybe give her black and white studio recording of Adele's "Easy On Me" when she was 15 a go ?? Or her version of "Suspicious Minds" made popular by Elvis, when she was 16. Or maybe check out her performances on Norway's Got Talent at age 7 and 8. She won at age 8 as the youngest person ever 🙂 She auditioned with "Gloomy Sunday" by Billie Holiday, her 2nd was "I'm A Fool To Want You", ALSO by Billie Holiday (her biggest inspiration in music), her 3rd was "Bang Bang" by Nancy Sinatra, before she did George Gershwin's "Summertime" in the final. Whatever you want to react to next by her (you have 200+ performances to choose from) you just CAN'T go wrong with any of them. She will blow you away each and every time. Much love from Norway ♥♥♥♥♥
For more information on Angelina’s history, see Angelina Jordan’s Wikipedia Page - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angelina_Jordan Below is a list of my recommendations for doing reactions to Angelina Jordan. 1. For the initial shock you should start with ‘I Put A Spell On You’ She was 9 years old when she did this. The link for this song is - ruclips.net/video/nwFloCPXzCs/видео.html 2. The next song you should react to is an Elvis cover ‘Suspicious Minds’ - ruclips.net/video/RTbKhkceR00/видео.html - this will show you how her voice and presence has developed. 3. To follow her growth react to the following songs in order: At age 6 - ‘I Who Have Nothing’ her first time in a studio - ruclips.net/video/RjQZKBpVaes/видео.html At age 7 - 8; Norway's Got Talent - ruclips.net/video/d3gSho9yf88/видео.html At age 8 ‘What A Difference A Day Makes’ -ruclips.net/video/ZSfgCIGd7k4/видео.html At age 10 ‘Feeling Good’ - ruclips.net/video/p8kAL-sGJx8/видео.html At age 11 ‘I’m A Fool To Want You’ - ruclips.net/video/SGx0djXTXQk/видео.html She also did this during Norway’s Got Talent, but she did it A Capella. At age 12 There are two songs of note here: ‘Shield’ which is one of her originals - ruclips.net/video/lQtUbVKb0vs/видео.html She was invited to perform at Quincy Jones’ 85th birthday in London she sang what is sort of her anthem (she has sung throughout the years many times). This is the rehearsal for the show but it is excellent - ruclips.net/video/OMkwoqUNNkE/видео.html At Age 13 she performed two songs on America’s Got Talent - and one other song of note - ‘I Have Nothing’ is a tribute to Whitney Houston - ruclips.net/video/eTcvvO6B3Io/видео.html On AGT ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’ for which she got the Golden Buzzer - ruclips.net/video/qF0JV28vgLw/видео.html On AGT ‘Goodbye Yellow Brick Road’ in the finals - ruclips.net/video/4XOMskgN8w4/видео.html - but she didn’t win. A lot of people are upset about that, but I think it’s the best thing that happened to her. At Age 16 she has three new covers. The newest and the best is an Elvis cover ‘Suspicious Minds’ - ruclips.net/video/RTbKhkceR00/видео.html She has released a new version of I Have Nothing - ruclips.net/video/iX0g99jN26U/видео.html - which is probably the best song she has done so far. The other is ‘My Funny Valentine - ruclips.net/video/bWiLOnHJYxg/видео.html Angelina dropped her latest song on May 5th 2023 it is the first song off her new album which will be out soon. The name of the song is ‘Love Don’t Let Me Go’ - ruclips.net/video/1U6WY_z8Vu8/видео.html - She wrote the song and in an interview said that all of the songs on the new album will be songs she wrote and had a major part in their arrangements. The current song that is number 1 on my playlist is Unchanged Melody ruclips.net/video/XxduGSjAJCo/видео.html , this performance is at the Nobel Piece Prize presentation. She has done several Adel covers and one other song of note - ‘Million Miles’ - ruclips.net/video/3KxvwuZ7oEM/видео.html - this is an original that she wrote in honor of her grandfather after he passed away. It is also the first song released under her contract with Republic Records. Rusty Shackelford has a RUclips playlist that includes all of her videos, including TikTok and Instagram. I have a playlist of Angelina's videos which is approaching 300,000 views (Angelina Jordan Playlist by Terry M.)
Vedo che per lei e nuova Angelina Jordan. Spero che continui a seguirla e vedrà in grande talento di questa ragazza soprannominata la regina del Jazz oggi nel mondo.
Idk about you but in this video her facial expression reminds me on the young Elvis Presley. Her singing even is right along this alley in a very beautiful way. Maybe that's just me...
👼Someone needs to do a couple of early vids, a hint at Angelina's origin story: "I Put A Spell On You" : she was 9, in the studio. v=nwFloCPXzCs "Bohemian Rhapsody" : AGT audition, at 14. v=qF0JV28vgLw 🐇🕳And then down the rabbit hole you will go...🍄
Summertime, the George Gershwin classic, sung by Angelina Jordan both in her Norway's Got Talent closing performance and here, with KORK, at the age of (help me chat!) 9 or 10, I think, is one of my favourites. ruclips.net/video/stwF4ti1tbc/видео.htmlsi=1YoCgG8yjGK2Z5Fc
Spellbound. Angelina Jordan's rendition of "Run To You" is a testament to her exceptional talent and the timeless appeal of Whitney Houston's classic. Her performance is not just a cover; it's a heartfelt homage that showcases her unique vocal qualities and emotional depth. With each note, Angelina invites listeners into a musical journey, filled with soulful nuances and a maturity beyond her years. or for that matter anyone's years. Her ability to connect with the essence of the song and convey its emotions in her own distinctive style leaves audiences spellbound and searching for words to capture the experience. It's performances like these that solidify her place as a prodigious talent in the music world. ruclips.net/video/H7S0cnKbkpk/видео.html
Greetings from NSW welcome to the Angelina Jordan world. Be prepared you will soon be inundated with information From her angels (Angelina fans) She is a once in a generation talent only matched by her loving and caring soul. This journey could be epic for you and us your viewers.
Terrific reaction, thanks. You're right, she's a total sweetheart. Norwegian-born Angelina Jordan, performing here at last year's Nobel Peace Prize celebration at age 17 (she turned 18 this past January), is my favorite singer ... ever. And, believe me, I'm not alone. Her big fans, whom she calls her Angels, all feel the same way, with the emphasis on "feel." No other vocalist in my experience can make me *feel* a song like she can, whether it's a cover (which she always expertly makes her own) or one of her originals. No need to try to "hold back tears" as you listen to her sing; let yourself go. We all do. Check out her astoundingly beautiful take on "Bohemian Rhapsody" at age 13 on America's Got Talent, The Champions; Queen liked it so much they allowed her to copyright her version. She's just magical.
Lady, Angelina practices since age 3,5 for around 6 hours daily on 6 days a week. That is what was told to us. Friend Ole is a good source for all things Angelina Jordan /AJ). My other co-commenters will also help you with information. Here is a documentary about young Angelina, I sincerely recommend: ruclips.net/video/jE6x9V8Cnyw/видео.html Be safe and happy.

If you have never heard of Angelina Jordan before. You are in how one unbelievable ride. Her fans are called Angels by Angelina. She has been singing since 18 months old. I am sure many Angels have already given you a lot of info about this once in a century remarkable singer.
Welcome to the best female vocalist on the planet. She's been at it since 1.5 years old. Her first studio recording I've seen is from when she was six. You can find it on here. It will amaze you. After that there's about 199 more that will change your mind about the universe. I PROMISE you will fall in love with her. She's actually a real life angel. 👍♥️
This "woman" was only 17 in this performance at The Nobel Prize;) If you are new to her, hold your horses! lol She's been doing this for a long time giving similar reaction to everything she sings from age 7 to current age of 18. I can't say enough good things about her! I recommend taking the Angelina journey and I have no doubt you will fall in love with her and her voice:) I'm sure the comment section will give you suggestions for some of her 200+ vids, all outstanding. Yes, all;) Most will probably start at a young age, so I will recommend one from her recent concert in Las Vegas on Feb 29. ruclips.net/video/OZGGChzbgqE/видео.html
Welcome to the world of Angelina! She is Norwegian and can sing just about anything and make it her own. She always pays homage to the original artist yet makes the cover her own. She is really just a power house at the ripe age of 18.
Angelina Jordan was born in Oslo Norway in 2006. She first won fame singing Billie Holiday's Gloomy Sunday auditioning for Norway's Got Talent at age 7, although she's been singing since she was eighteen months old. She performs barefoot after giving her shoes to a poor girl in the Middle East at around age 6. She's currently signed with Republic Records. To get an idea of the depth of her talent, I suggest you react to her arrangement of Screamin' Jay Hawkins' blues classic, I Put A Spell On You, recorded when she was 9. Here's a link: ruclips.net/video/nwFloCPXzCs/видео.html
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 considered a prodigy as an artist and poet. Angelina speaks Norwegian, Farsi, English, Japanese and Swedish. 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. Angelina plays the piano, violin, guitar and flute and also paints. 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. 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 6 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. 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. A 9 years and 2 months old, 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. On June 27, 2018, at age 12, Jordan performed “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. 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 concerts scheduled in Norway in July 2022. Personally, Angelina as a great human being and her music came into my life when I needed it most. Her music has improved the quality of my life more than I can express. I now introduce her to as many people as I can, with the hope her music will do the same for others. We know once her family believes the time is right and allows Republic Records to fully promote her, she will become the superstar she has always dreamt and believed she would be. I encourage others to use this biography to help educate others about the love, empathy, magic and beauty that is Angelina Jordan Astar and her unique music.
There hasn't been a day in the last 4 years I haven't played an Angelina track ( over 200 to choose from ) to lift my spirit, she truly is One in a Billion. Now the hard part recommending another track to watch, there are literally so many amazing performance, my favorite away from the obvious two " Bohemian Rhapsody " and " I Put a Spell on You " black and white version, would be her self penned studio version of " A Million Miles " when she was 14 I think, and the Elvis cover of " Suspicious Minds " . I loved your reaction as it is so rewarding seeing AJ acknowledged for being such a class act.
Welcome to the Jordan Journey. The first time she was honored with the invite to the Noble Peace Prize she was 8 years old. Here you see Angelina at 17. She has graced us with her magical voice from above for the last 12 years, and she is just getting started. Hope to see you around because Angelina will make you feel this way every single time.
A classic song personified by an artist who is on the verge of capturing the attention of every human being on the planet Earth with her soulful voice which transitions into a sound of love in it's purest form and touches our hearts with a feeling so warm we have never felt anything like it before in our lives. only Angelina...
Angelina Jordan the most predictably unpredictably brilliant artist you will ever find. She can flex her vocal tone, colour, texture dynamics any which way she pleases. This is a rare song as it shows off more of her vocal range than we normally see. That's because Angelina never sings to show off. She is an artist who treats her voice like a musical instrument to convey the emotion and story of the song. Her versitility means that her fans who listened to her every day since she auditioned for Norways Got Talent age 7. .... had no idea what her EP would be like last year age 17. To give an idea of her versitility please react to 2 origional songs from that EP NOW IM THE FOOL black and white mv and GOOD IN GOODBYES( love her lyrics in this one). We will see more of her now she's finished school and Republic Records are allowed to push her out. They signed her at 14. However her parents did allow her to perform in the school holidays and release UTube performances so there is a goldmine of exquisite performances to watch. There is no bad one. However as she has learnt by exploring every genre from ETTA JAMES, ELVIS, TO MICHAEL JACKSON, any song by ADELE is worth a listen she kills ADELE. Favourites of mine... there are too many to list.
This was a fantastic reaction your face says it all breathtaking performance from AJ now only about 200 and more performances to see it's a journey worth taking she has many top class ones so something to look forward to ❤
👍👍An awesomely awesome performance. 🖖❤
Best talent on the planet, and will be one of the greats of all time. Enjoy the ride

"Dear Ms. Angelina Jordan... You are someone "Earth Angel of Fine Music" very Special - We Thank UUU.!!!" - Ms AJ Angel Fan's Family Worldwide
You have fallen down the Angelina rabbit hole.
You will never come out until you have watched all her 150+ videos.
Once you have achieved that, you too can call yourself an Angelina fan, or Angels as they are called.
Geoff from London UK
Welcome to the wonderful world of Angelina Jordan. This young woman has been singing literally all her life and since winning "Norway's Got Talent" when she was 7 or 8 (her birthday is in January) she's recorded over 200 covers and original songs. I see that others have already been posting recommendations and playlists. It doesn't matter whether you go back to her first performances as a gap-toothed little girl, or her more recent recordings, you're going to fall down one of the most pleasant rabbit holes you've ever seen. You soon get over being shocked at how good Angelina is, but you never stop being amazed. And keep a box of tissues handy. She sings with such emotion that you WILL be in tears sooner or later.
Hello...yes Angelina Jordan appears to be a sweetheart...and so do you ❤🎉🙂👍🦋
Now 18, Angelina was still 17 in this performance at the Nobel Peace Prize tribute concert last December.
She entered Norways Got Talent at age 7 and won, having turned 8 by the end of the competition.
Appeared on America’s Got Talent the Champions at age 13 and received the Golden Buzzer for her amazing rendition of Bohemian Rhapsody.
She signed with Republic Records at 14.
She is not more well known as she has yet to be fully promoted as her family wanted her to have as normal a childhood as possible.
Her career is starting to ramp up. She recessed a 6 song EP of all originals last summer and had two concert performances in Las Vegas a few weeks ago.
Timeless, eloquent, exquisite and stunningly beautiful. Angelina encompasses all these wonderful attributes as she navigates through this most iconic classic song. Angelina demonstrated such grace, poise and reverence in delivering a performance for the ages at the prestigious Nobel Peace prize event in Oslo, Norway. She is singing to the recipients of this award with the father and siblings in attendance because the award winner Marge's Mohammadi is currently imprisoned in Iran because she is a woman's rights activist. Angelina is singing directly to them with a live concert audience, the world famous Norwegian orchestra Kork and a TV national audience of millions. This is Angelina in her true element. A gracefully wonderful and extremely talented artist. Remember in this video Angelina is only 17 years old and sounds like an angel that God has let us have for a few moments in time to bring us a moment of pure heaven and this is who Angela is to all her angels as we are known around the world. Angelina, you must understand loved dearly because she is a very humble, sincere, compassionate and loving soul. This is who she is and always has been since her childhood . She starting in the crib singing at the age of one and a half and recording in the studio at 6 years old and now at 18 is becoming a global superstar for all of us to enjoy. I want to thank you personally for posting this beautiful gem and I hope you can continue on Angelina's journey of joy and happiness as we all have over the years. Sending you much thanks and love from Canada 👍🇨🇦🇨🇦❤️❤️❤️
*She's just incredible*
You’re correct. She is a sweetheart. But more than that. An angel with a voice like I have never heard.
I sincerely believe that the more I listen to Angelina the better person I have become. She doesn't just touch my heart, she enters it completely and helps me drive out every fear, hurt and resentment ever stored there. I'm fairly confident that many other Angels feel the same. Thanks for your heartfelt reaction.
Angelina has a huge and loyal fanbase she refers to as her "angels" - you will be hearing a lot from them :)
Norwegian born Angelina Jordan began singing at the age of one and a half, and by age three was listening to jazz and classics legends on repeat. Her grandmother was her greatest influence, but Angelina chose her own path. Her first studio performance was at age 7, singing I Who Have Nothing. She won Norway's Got Talent at the age of only 8, singing old time classics from Billie Holliday and George Gershwin, and became one of the youngest ever vocalists to win an international Got Talent Show! Her performance at 9 years old of Screamin Jay Hawkins, I Put a Spell on You is considered one of the finest recordings ever of a 9-year-old vocalist! Angelina also went viral on America's Got Talent the champions in 2020 with her unique versions of Bohemian Rhapsody and Goodbye Yellow Brick Road. Angelina sings in English which unbelievably is her third language! She is a true prodigy.
She is now 18, and has recorded a huge library of songs, including covers and several originals. A major attraction to Angelina's music is the emotion and attitude she conveys, although she has not experienced the life events! She is known as the barefoot princess of 1,000 voices as she can adjust her tone, style, and register for any song or genre. She was signed by Republic Records when she was 14. She was not widely promoted for a few years, as her family wanted to allow her a normal childhood. However, things are changing rapidly as she has now graduated school. She has released two original music video singles from Republic Records, Love Don't Let Me Go, and Now I'm the Fool, coinciding with her new six song EP called Old Enough. The four other songs have been released as visualizers. A world tour is in the works, likely to coincide with her full album release.
Here is a semi-chronological RUclips playlist for Angelina of over 200 songs, beginning with 16 performances including originals, her EP, and a few specialty songs. Then it starts chronologically beginning with Gloomy Sunday from Norway's Got Talent. ruclips.net/p/PL2v8kgVeo4EbQD6l_WAVjOfItquzW7oEc&si=HrEm55lV164yKJqu
Why does Angelina sing barefoot? The answer may bring a tear to your eye. It is related to a promise she made to herself and to the world when she was only 6 years old. She was traveling in the Middle East with her mom and grandmother and they came across a young orphan girl with no shoes and scarred feet. Angelina gave the girl her own favorite shoes. Angelina ask the girl what she wanted to be when she grew up and she said a doctor, but she could not because she had to take care of her siblings. She asked Angelina the same question and Angelina said I want to sing for the world. The young girl said she would pray for Angelina. Since then, Angelia has forever performed barefoot as a reminder of all those less fortunate. At age 9 she wrote a book about this experience, Between two Hearts, becoming the youngest ever published author in Norway. She also has helped raise millions for children's charities. She even stated at 8 years old that she would be donating her winnings from Norway's Got Talent to charities. She is a special individual, and one you cannot follow without developing an emotional bond.
Angelina captures hearts because she is humble and has compassion for humanity. Her stated goal from childhood was to sing for the world and spread love and peace. I trust this will cause you to embrace her as millions of others have, and that you will continue down the rabbit hole from which you will not want to escape. Peace and love.
No more can be said on perfection!!!!!!
Angelina also performed Unchained Melody at her spectacular Las Vegas concerts.
Please consider reacting to Angelina Jordans mesmerizing performances at her historic concerts at the Westgate in Las Vegas on Feb.29th.
There are 4k video and hi rez audio by Merrilee Gaines of some of Angelina Jordans performances from this concert including the must watch One Moment In Time, and her new anthem masterpiece Princess of Ruins.
Other spectacular videos of this concert by James Thiel of some of Angelinas performances from this concert including Diamonds are Forever, Hero, When We Were Young, Mercy and Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down) also BigAngieFan has 4k Princess of Ruins and 1080P All I Ask!
We all feel that we need to protect her. She calls her fans Angels. Proud to say I’m one. Followed her since she was 7yrs.
Angelina does a lot of amazing performances, but this beautiful tribute she expressed here so elegantly with so much emotion, I am continually overwhelmed with emotion myself, no matter that I've heard her sing this tribute over and over again, always with tears, just like you.
AJ is just so awesome
You will never forget this day you discovered Angelina Jordan. She is the finest female vocalist to ever live. There has never been another with her combination of talents. Our barefoot Princess of a thousand voices, the Queen of Jazz. She is a gift to us all. English was her third language of 4. She is so much more than a prodigy. We will educate you here in the comments. Tears are allowed and expected. She is the ultimate storyteller in music. I am adding a piece that Andy Schell wrote about this performance on another channel. It gives real meaning to the importance of this ceremony. It was seen by millions on live worldwide TV in December 2023.

Thanks for your wonderful reaction to this beautiful, touching, respectful performance by Angelina Jordan. I greatly respect your commentary about the choices Angelina made for this performance. As always, it is about the song and the occasion, for Angelina.
I thought "Unchained Melody" was an odd choice for this event, but have since learned the history of the song. More on that later.
Certainly Angelina was thrilled to be performing back in her home country of Norway, where she is a national treasure, but this performance goes way beyond that honor. She first performed at the Save the Children event at the 2014 Peace Prize event, when she was 8 years old.
Narges Mohammadi was this year's recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize. Narges, is currently on a hunger strike while imprisoned in Iran, for being an activist for women's rights. Her two children spoke on her behalf at this event. Most of the performers were Iranian.
We know Angelina's grandmother, Mery Zamani, grew up in Iran and was a prodigy for painting and poetry. We can imagine the conversations Mery had with Angelina about Narges. This performance had to be extremely meaningful to Angelina and her family. I hope all the angels will spread the story of Narges and her mission, with the hope for change.
In 1954, Alex North was contracted to compose the score for the prison film Unchained (released in 1955). North had a melody he had written in the 1930s and composed and recorded the score when he was asked to write a song based upon the movie's theme. North asked Hy Zaret to write the lyrics. After first refusing, Zaret and North together wrote "Unchained Melody. Zaret refused the producer's request to include the word "unchained" in his lyrics. The song eventually became known as the "Unchained Melody" even though the song does not actually include the word "unchained". Instead, Zaret chose to focus on someone who pines for a lover he has not seen in a "long, lonely time".
The film centered on a man who contemplates either escaping from prison to live life on the run, or completing his sentence and returning to his wife and family. So indeed this song fits along with Narges being in prison and her two children, and the rest of the people who embrace freedom, calling for her release. Note: It has been 9 years since Narges has seen her twin daughter and Son and her Husband.
Oh boy, you are going to be bombarded by her fans called Angels that will fill you in on this music prodigy with an old soul from Norway. She's basically been a star since she was 7 years old. First and foremost, she is a jazz singer but has the ability to sing any genre. She also does all of her own musical arrangements. Even though she has been compared by many to Amy Winehouse, her major influence is Billie Holiday. Other influences are Dinah Washington, Louis Armstrong, Frank Sinatra, Elvis Presley, Etta James, Amy Winehouse, Whitney Houston, and Adele to name a few. Her love of jazz came from her grandmother playing jazz music around her when she was young. In 2014, she entered at age 7 and won Norway's Got Talent at the age of 8. With her new found fame, she used it to appear on many shows from abroad and help raise millions for the less fortunate children around the world. At age 13, she was invited to participate on America's Got Talent: The Champions in 2020. She shocked the audience and the judges with her rendition of Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen. She received a standing ovation from all and got the Golden Buzzer from judge Heidi Klum to go straight to the Finals. Her performance went viral and even the group Queen responded on Twitter by saying, "Wow, what a rendition!" For Queen to respond to someone covering one of their songs is quite a feat since they rarely react to anyone. She did not win, but her fan base grew and expanded her popularity.
Now 18 years old, living in Los Angeles, and currently signed with Republic Records, whose clients include Taylor Swift, Ariana Grande, The Weeknd, and Drake to name a few. Her family and Republic Records had agreed not to heavily promote her just yet so she can live as normal of a life as possible and finish her schooling. From what we know, she is finally done with school. She had a single that came out May 5th called Love Don't Let Me Go, a new EP called Old Enough that came out Friday, July 21st, 2023, a newly released video of her new song called Now I'm The Fool, and a new album of original music which will be coming out early next year. Angelina just recently released her new single, Our Time, and is fantastic! She returned back to Norway and performed at a number of sold out concerts in which fans from around the world came to see her. Many of the fans there said she sounded better live in person and was a once in a lifetime experience. On September 22, 2023, Angelina had her first U.S. concert that sold out in Portsmouth, New Hampshire. On December 11, 2023, she was asked to come back and perform at the Nobel Peace Prize Concert. She first performed at this prestigious event in 2014 when she was 8. On Feb.29th, 2024, she performed 2 shows on one night at the Westgate Las Vegas Resort and Casino.
Her fans call her The Barefoot Princess. She always performs with no shoes when she sings. Why? The reason is very special. When she was 6 years old, she was traveling with her family in Iran where she met a poor shoeless girl in the streets that was about her age. She made money by weighing people. After speaking with her for a few minutes, Angelina noticed the scars on the girl's feet and asked the girl what her dream is. The girl said she wanted to be a doctor but she couldn't because she had to make money for her family. Angelina did what came natural to her, she gave the little girl her shoes and told her to not give up on her dreams. The girl then asked Angelina what her dreams were, Angelina answered that she wanted to sing for the whole world, and the girl said she would pray for her success. Since then, Angelina has performed barefoot in honor of that little girl and to those who are less fortunate around the world. She keeps this promise to this day. One of the reasons why we love her so much!
Fantastic summary. Well done. We love her so!!!
Awesome job, AWESOME
She won Norways got talent as a 7yo her gobsmacking performance on Americas got talent was amazing as a 14yo singing Boheman Rhapsody like you have never heard it before wow.
I just did a reaction to Angelina singing Bohemian Rhapsody...so stay tuned. It should be available soon.
I follow her since her participation in norway got talent , she was just six to seven years age , and sing acapella on im a fool to love you …..it is just blow your mind
The seven and eight year old performances on NGT were all absolutely fantastic. I didn't see and hear them until 2017, but when I heard those 4 covers they made me a fan for life. Honestly, "Summertime" was my first listen and I became an Angel after only one note. 👼
She is already an artist for the big occasions with e.g. The new FIFA World Cup's official anthem, in addition to several major performances. Like few artists, she has performed for the Nobel Peace Prize at the age of 8 and 17. And 2 shows in Las Vegas ... She is 18 today. 250 songs both covers and original to listen to! She has had many live performances.
The remaining members of Queen allowed her to copyright her arrangement of Bohemian Rhapsody!
Subscribed hoping you will continue reacting to our "Barefoot Princess". Angelina is most truly a gift from God!

Hi Swift,
even if you already got some comments with good information allow me sending you my "standard newbies comment" (SNC) - maybe you can find some for you new information in it ;-)
So, here is my SNC:
Welcome to the universe of Angelina Jordan and thanks a billion for this nice reaction to her - I'm sure to hear more reactions to her from you! ...because it is...
...too late!
From now on you are assimilated in Angelina's entourage! Resistance is futile...
Even if you won't believe it and if you are in denial about it: Only listen to one song sung by Angelina Jordan and you are hooked on listening her voice! Maybe you aren't aware of it yet... a legend says in rare cases there are humans who can resist.... but I can't believe it 😏
Every time it's a pleasure to watch people reacting to Angelina Jordan - especially when it is the first time - and I hope to see more of your reactions on Angelina Jordan... 😏
So a little Question:
When you react to her cover "I put a spell on you" b/w studio version at 9yo (ruclips.net/video/nwFloCPXzCs/видео.html - btw. like here she made most of her cover arrangements by herself! ..at the beginning she made her last changes for the piano arrangement and gave her "wishes" to the band leader..) it would be nice to react in the same reaction video IN ADVANCE to the original from Screemin' Jay Hawkins (from 1956 - Live: ruclips.net/video/7kGPhpvqtOc/видео.html or another version of it: ruclips.net/video/orNpH6iyokI/видео.html
and here a version from 1990 in Tokyo - I feel, this is like the version Angelina has taken as the model, but I don't know it ( 😏 ): ruclips.net/video/Bb9ag8bch_U/видео.html
or as Audio-Studio-Version:
ruclips.net/video/82cdnAUvsw8/видео.html) that's real fun :-D - and than you will find out that Angelinas cover is a virtuoso tribute to Jay Hawkins :-D
At the beginning you see her something writing on a sheet and a man reading it and smiles than.. in an interview this man, who was the "bandleader", said, this were some "wishes" from Angelina (she was every time very polite he said) for changes of her arrangement for the piano 😃)
The candle you can see at about 0:12 shows a portrait of J. Hawkins - I think her grandma bought it at a concert in Tokyo 😏
At 0:26 you can see the bassist smiling - I can imagine that he smiles about the expectable reactions of the listeners in the moment, when Angelina starts to sing at 0:30 😏
Btw. I read somewhere that her grandma was in person at a concert of SJH in Japan (as she, AJs mother and uncle lived there some years - AJs grandpa is Japanese) and there AJs grandma bought this candle as a souvenir 😏
...I hope this story isn't a HOAX 😃
Maybe you wonder, what videos you should next react to 😏 ...
Furthermore there is a big pile of over 170 videos on RUclips with Angelina Jordans rehearsals, covers and originals... and each and every one is worth to listen and to react to - even the very early recordings when she was 6 yo!
She is born January 10th 2006 in Oslo/Norge (English is her 3rd language 😏), sung her first notes of a Whitney Houston song with 18 months (link see down), started researching the internet for Jazz 3 yo, entered Norske Talenter (Norwegian Got Talent) 7 yo and won it 8 yo, was on AGT The Champions (recorded Oct. 2019, aired Jan. 2020) where she didn't won - some rumours say because she/her mother didn't sign the contract with the enterprise of Simon Cowell for to stay independent - meanwhile she has signed with Republic Records (musicnorway.no/aktuelt/industry-talk-michael-astar ).
Btw. her full name is Angelina Jordan Astar, but in most occasions she is introduced as Angelina Jordan - she herself answered in the audition of Norske Talenter her name is "Angelina Jordan"… 😏

and songs which are especially written for her:
"Song for A": ruclips.net/video/Bo3mhxPM-uA/видео.html - (there is a discussion if "A" stands for Angelina, Annie - the woman in the lyrics - or both of them 😏 - the lyrics are from a poem from Robert Burns written in 1783 ! )
"Above the water": ruclips.net/video/SC3F0bKKk3U/видео.html - interesting voice - even if EDM is not my preferred genre 😏
... here her "mini concert" from AGT the Champions (Watch out: With these videos other reactors have the most problems with copyright claims...):

In the meanwhile there are some more live versions of her originals and some cover songs from her summer 2022 concerts like in Kurbadhagen... 😏
Besides she is mostly making her very own arrangement there are some very interesting videos of her, where she uses the original arrangement or a big one of someone else like "I Have Nothing" (Whitney Houston Tribute) ruclips.net/video/eTcvvO6B3Io/видео.html or "Fly Me To The Moon" in the arrangement of Quincy Jones (rehearsal with concert mixed audio for his birthday party in the O2 arena): ruclips.net/video/OMkwoqUNNkE/видео.html .
And here is a video where it is explained (with English subtitles) why she performs barefoot: ruclips.net/video/A-OKLslO74Y/видео.html and here an Interview in the Norwegian TV (with English subtitles) from 2015 after she has published her book about the story why she is barefoot when performing: ruclips.net/video/-cCLDY0CSZ8/видео.html
In addition to school she got also vocal training at the Oslo School of Music and Performing Arts after-school program (I read, that this school said, they couldn't teach her more stuff because she has all learned what she could learn in this school ;-) ) - and btw. she plays also grand piano, violin, flute and guitar, make her arrangements herself, wrote a book, sew clothes for herself (partly with art from her grandma like in her first AGT performance and in her music video "Shield").
So, she is a real all-rounder and I think all her fans are eager to see and hear what she is doing next...
All the other things like more recommendation, chronological playlists and so on you can read in the comments of the mega-fans like Fernando F., Rusty (AJ videos in chronological order ruclips.net/channel/UC55am_6Y5-Fj4ri8xOInstA), Andy Schnell, ...
Thanks a billion again for your reaction! … and see you soon with your next AJ reactions - with greetings from Berlin/Germany 😃 Best regards

Hello Angelina Jordan is the most versatile singer I have heard and I'm 70 years old. Loved your reaction and love from New Zealand
Ah! I'm in New Zealand, too. So, if I stand on my roof and wave to you, will you wave back? 🙂
Chur cuzzie. I'll always wave back 👋
71 here and double ditto 😍
Loved your reaction as well.
I am another fellow New Zealander.
I see another fan has asked you to watch Angelina sing Bohemian Rhapsody. In AGT.
The judges ask Angelina about singing in Norways Got talant.
This is where Angelina began to be known around the world 10 years ago at 7/8 years old. I only going to tell you, it is a very pleasant surprise.
Thanks for that. I will be doing more Angelina soon. She is amazing. I'm so pleased to hear from another kiwi. Kia Ora 👋🍻🇦🇺
Now you have something to look/hear forward to.😂
Angelina Jordan gives us an emotional, subtle performance and makes many musical choices appropriate for this occasion. n Angelina's performance at the Nobel Peace Prize tribute concert in Norway for laureate (winner) Narges Mohammad, the Iranian woman in jail for her stance on women's rights. This will become an iconic performance of Unchained Melody.
Please try I PUT A SPELL ON YOU when she was 9yrs old singing her own arrangement , it will knock your socks off
For anybody new to Angelina, who wants to get to know her quickly, I created this playlist with 11 songs from age 7 to 17 (plus a recent feature about her): ruclips.net/p/PLddfS789jBCrSUcMxwCiHeJi8A9zN5xt3
1. Gloomy Sunday, her 2013 audition to Norway's Got Talent, when she was 7, which was aired in 2014 and then immediatly went viral.
2. Fly Me to the Moon, live on The View, was her US debut later in 2014, and also went viral. It gathered more than 37 Million views on RUclips, and many more on Facebook.
3. I Put a Spell On You, the song where Screamin' Jay Hawkins got his nickname from, has 11 Million Views so far. Her cover is closer to his original than most well known covers of it. She was 9 years old here.
4. Feeling Good, in a version sung on TV in 2016 while still being 10 years old, though she already started to perform the song in public about a year earlier.
5. A Million Years Ago, one of 13 Adele covers she did, as an impressive acoustic home studio recording.
6. Shield, from 2018, was the third original she relased that year at 12 years old. It is about the protection and support she gets from her family.
7. Bohemian Rhapsody, in her own stripped down arrangement on AGT the Champions Season 2, wowed everyone, including the group Queen themselves, who twittered "Wow, what a performance of Bohemian Rhapsody!"
8. Million Miles, which she wrote and produced together with Stargate, is about the loss of a close person (her grandfather), and was the first song she released 2020 with Republic Records.
9. 7th Heaven, her 2nd song with RR from 2021, is encouraging people to persue their dreams, like she did.
10. Suspicious Minds, done 2022, is an Elvis cover as unique as Bohemian Rhapsody was.
11. Love Don't Let Me Go, her third release with Republic Records, and the first new song on her recently released EP "Old Enough" of total 6 new original songs.
If you are more interested in her recent performances, here is a playlist containing releases and performances from her last 3 years, including all titels from "Old Enough", and her even more recently released Christmas EP: ruclips.net/p/PLddfS789jBCqMgW5xQeK97nibjJCeDme5
She cites Billy Holiday as her biggest influence. And she covered more songs from Adele than by any other artist, followed by Amy Winehouse, Elvis, and Sam Smith.

You happened to react to the most divinely gifted young female artists on the planet. Angelina turned eighteen years old on January 10, 2024.
Welcome to the birth of a legend. Here’s a little background info on Angelina.
“When I sing I go to another world. The world is endless. It's like, full of happiness. I love it. It's amazing. And when I am on stage, I don't want to go [leave the stage]. [laughing]. I just want to be on stage" A snippet of Skaylan’s interview of Angelina Jordan (age 12) on Norwegian TV - November 2018. ♥👣👸🏻🎷
What you will soon realize is that Angelina today at 18 Angelina is already the best Jazz singer on the Planet! IMO Soon to be one of the Best Vocalists of All Time. ♥👣👸🏻
Angelina won Norway's Got Talent when she was 8 yrs old after starting the competition at 7 yrs old. The youngest winner of any Got Talent show on the planet. She had to wait two years because you had to be 7 yrs old to enter. She started with a rendition of Billie Holiday's 'Gloomy Sunday' which she just infused with Billie's soul. She followed this by another Billie classic with a pitch perfect rendition of 'I'm a Fool to Want You' acapella. Her next performance was a beautiful rendition of 'Bang, Bang' by Sonny & Cher and performed most famously by Nancy Sinatra. She won the competition with what I consider her first Masterpiece performance of 'Summertime' by George Gershwin. Shortly after winning she was designated a National Treasure by the Norwegian people. ♥👣👸🏻
There is video of Angelina recorded by her mother Sarah Astar singing a couple of lines of "I Will Always Love You' by Whitney Houston when she was 18 months old. She started studying all the greats of Jazz soon after under the guidance of her Iranian Grandmother Mery Zamani a child prodigy in her own right as an artist and poet. English is Angelina's 3rd language behind Norwegian and Farsi along with Japanese and some German and perhaps more. She did this from 2 & 3 yrs old by scrolling thru RUclips of all their most Iconic performance. Angelina doesn't just mimic these greats, she reinterprets them and then simply sings them the way they were meant to be sung. She makes them her own.
Angelina was begging her mother to go on "that Simon show" when she was 3 yrs old. encouraged to sing children songs, she would have none of that. Angelina chooses her own songs and she is absolutely fearless. No song is too big and no artist is too Iconic. All the most Iconic songs by the most Iconic singers in music history. Angelina has said singing to her is as important to her as breathing. ♥👣👸🏻
She will sing anything Acapella at any time and often does. Her Tic-Toc is full of these impromptu performances wherever she might be whether in the car, walking around the neighborhood or in a parking Garage. Accompanied by most often a simple guitar or piano her performances are always incredible. Add a band or even a full orchestra as in her performance for Quincy Jones at his request singing his arrangement of 'Fly Me to the Moon'. The same arrangement he did for Frank Sinatra. This opened for his 85th birthday celebration at the 02 Arena in London. ♥👣👸🏻
She is well known worldwide in the industry. Her family and Angelina have been holding back turning down many of the biggest in the industry while she finishes school. Remember she just turned 18 January 10th. They finally signed with Republic Records about 4 years ago after getting a deal that gave her control of her artistic vision and has since released 2 originals, 'Million Miles' & '7th Heaven' plus the opening soundtrack for the New Movie "The Hating Game" with her song 'Mercy' performed most notably by Duffy. Republic has labeled her their Highest Priority and assigned a team to her including Rob Christy a multiple Grammy Winner, often on the piano in many of her performances and a whole team of equally qualified professionals. She has worked with some of the best musicians in the industry and always get exactly what she wants. Some call her the Boss and have immense respect for her. She recently dropped Her EP 'Old Enough' which includes 6 original tracks. She has been indicating she will be releasing another EP of originals by Christmas.
She has been diligently perfecting her craft since winning Norway's Got Talent singing all over the world, Germany, Japan, Korea as well as TV appearances such as The View, Little Big Shots and most notably America's Got Talent where she premiered her Iconic Performance of 'Bohemian Rhapsody' which Queen gave her the copyright for. Her version is available on iTunes and Spotify & is included on her Album 'Magic' which she released on her own along with a Christmas Song collection. After Heidi's golden buzzer for her audition of BR, Angelina went directly to the finals where she sang YBR. After the "secret voting", she placed 6th in the competition and was eliminated from the competition. After first refusing to sign with AGT because of contract demands, a re-worked contract was eventually signed which freed Angelina from any commitments or record deal if she performed.
She has also sung for Many Heads of State including Barack Obama and a couple of songs opening for Norah Jones in Korea. She also sang at the Nobel Peace Prize Concert at 8 yrs old for Malala and another recipient. Mostly she has sung for charities helping raise millions for children charities and climate change. The great part is that most of it has been well documented often by herself and her family. Her Grandmother who introduced her to Jazz at 3 & 4 yrs old is behind the camera more than anyone else. Love the reactions. Get ready for a deep dive. She is worth it! Love from the Land of Vikings ♥👣👸🏻
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a thoughtful comment. I look forward to some more Angelina Jordan reactions. She is phenomenal! 🇦🇺👋🙏

Hold on. I was about to make a snarky comment about how... errr... ...intense... and verbose... certain fans can be, snark which was going to include a reference to Swifties, then I noticed [gasp] _the_ _name_ _of_ _this_ _channel_ *WTF* ⁉ NOOoo

Very nice reaction. Two things I would suggest. First, honor the artist with a link to the original video in your description. This helps you with the RUclips algorithm also. Second, create a playlist for each artist.
Thanks for the tips!
Great reaction and comments! Angelina is from Norway, but she lives now in LA, USA. Yes, her performances are captivating.
It would have been interesting to see your reaction to a song I often return to, Every Time We Say Goodbye, sung by the 10-year-old Angelina. The Norwegian presenter says they are happy to hear this before Angelina travels to the US. That context gives this song extra depth. It was filmed on a rooftop in Oslo. You can find it here: ruclips.net/video/KRSI8HmTHJA/видео.html
Yes one of my favorites especially since right after that they flew to the US and she performed for the benefit concert for the Mattel Childrens Hospital in LA escorted there by Gene Simmons.
😊😊😊😊NEWS! - NEWS - NEWS! Please next from Angelina Jordan - "Bad Valentine" The newest song from Angelina is the rawest and most amazing song I've ever heard. We know that Angelina is a super mega vocalist, but this was so good and powerful that it can't actually be described in words. WARNING! That song will blow your socks off!
Thanks. I'll check that out. 🍻🙏👋
A tribute to nobel prize winner " narges mohammidi " who is serving a long prison sentence in iran for simply calling for freedom of expression for women and refusing to wear the higab .hence the restrained sombre performance from angelina , perfect song and performance for this nobel prize event .
Welcome to “The World Of Angelina Jordan Astar” (full name). “The Barefoot Princess With The Velvet Voice And A Mona Lisa Smile”. Born Jan 10, 2006 in Oslo Norway. From her audition on Norway’s Got Talent (2014 - age 7 - Gloomy Sunday "Billy Holiday") through the final on America’s Got Talent The Champions (2020 - age 13 - Goodbye Yellow Brick Road "Sir Elton John") and the 130+ videos in between you will not be disappointed. This includes three originals song: “What Is Life”, “Oslo” and “Shield” Since then she has done many new covers and now her new singles "Million Miles" and “7th Heaven”, along with her movie soundtrack "Mercy" from the motion picture “The Hating Game”. As well as her brilliant version of Elvis’s “Suspicious Mind”. She released her latest album “Old Enough” and it is definitely some of her best stuff. My personal favorite is her cover of Lana Del Rey's "Born To Die". Although the soundtrack is really growing on me.
Su majestad Angelina jordan las demás son solamente sus discípulas
Enjoyed your reaction very much! I hope this will be the 1st of many more reactions to Angelina, I cannot stress enough how very special this young woman is. Blessed with a talent for music that is just surreal, yet she is very humble and kind hearted. Hope to see more Angelina on your channel soon!
🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Welcome to a new Angel, most reactors will be told to watch her fantastic cover of Queens BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY at 13 years old or her cover of I Put A SPELL ON YOU at 9 years old, both her own arrangements as an intro to her music, but she has 200+ songs on RUclips all of them really good. I recommend you listen to her latest EP called Old Enough which she released in july 2023 6 songs every one a banger, she is a lyrical genius. Here is a link to one of them ruclips.net/video/8BXCVY_-RmU/видео.html She also just performed in Las Vegas on the 29 Feb were she had 2 consecutive shows singing 38 songs covers and originals, with fans attending from all over the world. Can you name any 18 year old other singer songwriter that has had a solo concert in Las Vegas
No words

🎉🎉🎉 NORWAY'S GOT TALENT

She is 17, and the king family and the ministers are sitting 20 feet away.
Do I detect and Aussie accent, well that fine as she has many, many Aussie fans who are all proud to be Angels. Hope you stick with the barefoot princess as her fans (me included) will love you for it. Liked and subscribed but please don't make this a one off.
Go on, react to "I put a spell on you" when she was 9. If nothing else it's shocking...
From Republic Records bio, Angelina said “Today, I sing barefoot as a reminder of all the kids in the world who need help and support.” See Angelina's book "Mellom to hjerter" (Between Two Hearts) for background story of 6-year old Angelina meeting shoeless girl to whom Angelina gave her shoes. A few of the hundreds of covered/original songs by Angelina include:
---- Bohemian Rhapsody (as 13-year old, Angelina creates unique, stripped-down version of Queen's hit 1975 song for America’s Got Talent The Champions getting worldwide recognition. Queen links to her performance on their Twitter account stating "Wow! What a rendition @angelinajordanA" and gives Angelina copyright to publish her version: ruclips.net/video/qF0JV28vgLw/видео.html)
---- Million Miles (co-wrote as 14-year old after her maternal grandfather died and she was thinking about great memories she had and how it hurts to lose someone. Angelina dedicated song to anyone who has lost loved one. Angelina made Republic Records studio live video: ruclips.net/video/3KxvwuZ7oEM/видео.html)
---- 7th Heaven (co-wrote as 15-year old, Angelina said that “The song is a reminder to look at everything in a positive light and not get down on yourself. Most importantly-no matter what you’re doing-don’t give up. It’s also meant to make you dance.” Angelina made Republic Records studio live video: ruclips.net/video/bM8DzMRbiIc/видео.html)
---- Billie Jean (as 15-year old, Angelina completely turns Michael Jackson’s 1982 hit song on its head by doing a jazzy version that re-invents the song to something different than original: ruclips.net/video/xp67k9wk2Mw/видео.html)
---- You Say (as 15-year old, Angelina exquisitely covers Lauren Daigle’s hit song (over 6 million units sold) that won a Grammy Award and was lead song on her 2018 album Look Up Child: ruclips.net/video/9K8JOd4VIpk/видео.html)
---- My Funny Valentine (as 16-year old, music video shot in LA antique store and directed by Angelina. Her skills are way beyond her age. Angelina sings Frank Sinatra lyrical version in sultry, jazz style: ruclips.net/video/ETGLbsGDAI0/видео.html)
---- Suspicious Minds (as 16-year old, music video shot in LA antique store. Angelina puts unique twist to this 1969 Elvis Presley hit song by slowing it way down and rearranging lyrics: ruclips.net/video/RTbKhkceR00/видео.html)
---- I Have Nothing (as 16-year old, Angelina sung in music video shot in black & white in LA antique store: ruclips.net/video/iX0g99jN26U/видео.html)
---- Valerie (as 17-year old, sung Amy Winehouse’s 2007 hit song live on Germany’s Next Top Model popular TV show by Heidi Klum: ruclips.net/video/JahKZ6aYFbI/видео.html)
---- Love Don’t Let Me Go (co-wrote as 17-year old, music video shot in black and white interspersing Angelina singing in studio with her driving 1955 Porsche 356 Speedster with grandmother Mery Zamani in car: ruclips.net/video/1U6WY_z8Vu8/видео.html)
---- Now I’m The Fool (co-wrote as 17-year old, music video shot in black and white. Angelina is sassy and pours out her heart with feelings of pain expressed visually and vocally: ruclips.net/video/8BXCVY_-RmU/видео.html)
---- Can’t Help Falling In Love (as 17-year old, sung at 2023 Le Bal Paris famous Elvis song whose melody is from "Plaisir d'amour", a popular French love song composed in 1784 by Jean-Paul-Égide Martini: ruclips.net/video/X9PSYM0qm8o/видео.html)
---- When We Were Young (as 18-year old, sung Adele’s hit song at Angelina’s Las Vegas concert on February 29, 2024 at the Westgate on the same stage that Elvis performed 636 consecutive sold-out shows: ruclips.net/video/OZGGChzbgqE/видео.html)
Angelina is easily the best singer I’ve ever heard. Second place is not even close. I envy that you can start to discover how amazing she is. What you’d never know from this first exposure to Angelina is that she is one of the best jazz and blues singers you’ve ever heard.
Just jump in anywhere. It doesn’t matter what age, what title, or what genre, but the best live performance I’ve ever seen is 13 year old Angelina with her own arrangement of Bohemian Rhapsody. It’s nothing like you could imagine, but it’s mesmerizingly beautiful. Here’s the link: ruclips.net/video/qF0JV28vgLw/видео.htmlsi=eojxKcN1SqlJi6gQ
Learning about the background of this performance makes it 10 times more impressive. Knowing she is singing it from the perspective of the Nobel Peace prize winner, Iranian human rights activist, Narges Mohammidi, to her children as she is serving a prison sentence for women's rights in Iran. Angelina, by replacing the strong vocal belting with gentle and delicate handling has transformed the song from a romantic love song to an imprisoned mothers love song of yearning for her children. This was one of her latest songs, done this year.
Another transformation of a song was one in her top 10 as a child, Screamin Jay Hawkins' 1956 "I Put a Spell on You" , changing it from a theatrical stage performance to a serious jazz song arranged by her when she was only 9 years old. ruclips.net/video/nwFloCPXzCs/видео.html
Great 1st reaction to my all time favorite singer 🙂 I think you've done it now.... Hehe It's kinda hard to leave her once you've heard her, she is unlike any other artist you have ever seen or heard, I promise. I have subscribed in sheer anticipation for more reactions to her. She was 17 here, maybe give her black and white studio recording of Adele's "Easy On Me" when she was 15 a go ??
Or her version of "Suspicious Minds" made popular by Elvis, when she was 16. Or maybe check out her performances on Norway's Got Talent at age 7 and 8. She won at age 8 as the youngest person ever 🙂 She auditioned with "Gloomy Sunday" by Billie Holiday, her 2nd was "I'm A Fool To Want You", ALSO by Billie Holiday (her biggest inspiration in music), her 3rd was "Bang Bang" by Nancy Sinatra, before she did George Gershwin's "Summertime" in the final. Whatever you want to react to next by her (you have 200+ performances to choose from) you just CAN'T go wrong with any of them. She will blow you away each and every time. Much love from Norway ♥♥♥♥♥
“Kinda hard to leave her….” That, my fellow Angel, may be the greatest understatement I’ve ever heard! 😊😇💙
@@Owen_S.😁👍👍🙏🙏

For more information on Angelina’s history, see Angelina Jordan’s Wikipedia Page - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angelina_Jordan
Below is a list of my recommendations for doing reactions to Angelina Jordan.
1. For the initial shock you should start with ‘I Put A Spell On You’ She was 9 years old when she did this. The link for this song is - ruclips.net/video/nwFloCPXzCs/видео.html
2. The next song you should react to is an Elvis cover ‘Suspicious Minds’ - ruclips.net/video/RTbKhkceR00/видео.html - this will show you how her voice and presence has developed.
3. To follow her growth react to the following songs in order:
At age 6 - ‘I Who Have Nothing’ her first time in a studio - ruclips.net/video/RjQZKBpVaes/видео.html
At age 7 - 8; Norway's Got Talent - ruclips.net/video/d3gSho9yf88/видео.html
At age 8 ‘What A Difference A Day Makes’ -ruclips.net/video/ZSfgCIGd7k4/видео.html
At age 10 ‘Feeling Good’ - ruclips.net/video/p8kAL-sGJx8/видео.html
At age 11 ‘I’m A Fool To Want You’ - ruclips.net/video/SGx0djXTXQk/видео.html She also did this during Norway’s Got Talent, but she did it A Capella.
At age 12 There are two songs of note here:
‘Shield’ which is one of her originals - ruclips.net/video/lQtUbVKb0vs/видео.html
She was invited to perform at Quincy Jones’ 85th birthday in London she sang what is sort of her anthem (she has sung throughout the years many times). This is the rehearsal for the show but it is excellent - ruclips.net/video/OMkwoqUNNkE/видео.html
At Age 13 she performed two songs on America’s Got Talent - and one other song of note -
‘I Have Nothing’ is a tribute to Whitney Houston - ruclips.net/video/eTcvvO6B3Io/видео.html
On AGT ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’ for which she got the Golden Buzzer - ruclips.net/video/qF0JV28vgLw/видео.html
On AGT ‘Goodbye Yellow Brick Road’ in the finals - ruclips.net/video/4XOMskgN8w4/видео.html - but she didn’t win. A lot of people are upset about that, but I think it’s the best thing that happened to her.
At Age 16 she has three new covers.
The newest and the best is an Elvis cover ‘Suspicious Minds’ - ruclips.net/video/RTbKhkceR00/видео.html
She has released a new version of I Have Nothing - ruclips.net/video/iX0g99jN26U/видео.html - which is probably the best song she has done so far.
The other is ‘My Funny Valentine - ruclips.net/video/bWiLOnHJYxg/видео.html
Angelina dropped her latest song on May 5th 2023 it is the first song off her new album which will be out soon. The name of the song is ‘Love Don’t Let Me Go’ - ruclips.net/video/1U6WY_z8Vu8/видео.html - She wrote the song and in an interview said that all of the songs on the new album will be songs she wrote and had a major part in their arrangements.
The current song that is number 1 on my playlist is Unchanged Melody ruclips.net/video/XxduGSjAJCo/видео.html , this performance is at the Nobel Piece Prize presentation.
She has done several Adel covers and one other song of note - ‘Million Miles’ - ruclips.net/video/3KxvwuZ7oEM/видео.html - this is an original that she wrote in honor of her grandfather after he passed away. It is also the first song released under her contract with Republic Records.
Rusty Shackelford has a RUclips playlist that includes all of her videos, including TikTok and Instagram. I have a playlist of Angelina's videos which is approaching 300,000 views (Angelina Jordan Playlist by Terry M.)
❤❤❤💯👋👋👋
Vedo che per lei e nuova Angelina Jordan. Spero che continui a seguirla e vedrà in grande talento di questa ragazza soprannominata la regina del Jazz oggi nel mondo.
Idk about you but in this video her facial expression reminds me on the young Elvis Presley. Her singing even is right along this alley in a very beautiful way. Maybe that's just me...
She's from Norway but lives in L.A.
👼Someone needs to do a couple of early vids, a hint at Angelina's origin story:
"I Put A Spell On You" : she was 9, in the studio. v=nwFloCPXzCs
"Bohemian Rhapsody" : AGT audition, at 14. v=qF0JV28vgLw

Summertime, the George Gershwin classic, sung by Angelina Jordan both in her Norway's Got Talent closing performance and here, with KORK, at the age of (help me chat!) 9 or 10, I think, is one of my favourites. ruclips.net/video/stwF4ti1tbc/видео.htmlsi=1YoCgG8yjGK2Z5Fc
Spellbound.
Angelina Jordan's rendition of "Run To You" is a testament to her exceptional talent and the timeless appeal of Whitney Houston's classic. Her performance is not just a cover; it's a heartfelt homage that showcases her unique vocal qualities and emotional depth. With each note, Angelina invites listeners into a musical journey, filled with soulful nuances and a maturity beyond her years. or for that matter anyone's years. Her ability to connect with the essence of the song and convey its emotions in her own distinctive style leaves audiences spellbound and searching for words to capture the experience. It's performances like these that solidify her place as a prodigious talent in the music world. ruclips.net/video/H7S0cnKbkpk/видео.html
Thank you. I might do that one soon. 🍻👋🇦🇺
@@SwiftReactions Thanks for the reply I love your reactions.
She be 17 then
Master of dynamics, heavenly tonality, and absolutely is a sweetheart!
Greetings from NSW welcome to the Angelina Jordan world. Be prepared you will soon be inundated with information From her angels (Angelina fans) She is a once in a generation talent only matched by her loving and caring soul. This journey could be epic for you and us your viewers.
Terrific reaction, thanks. You're right, she's a total sweetheart. Norwegian-born Angelina Jordan, performing here at last year's Nobel Peace Prize celebration at age 17 (she turned 18 this past January), is my favorite singer ... ever. And, believe me, I'm not alone. Her big fans, whom she calls her Angels, all feel the same way, with the emphasis on "feel." No other vocalist in my experience can make me *feel* a song like she can, whether it's a cover (which she always expertly makes her own) or one of her originals. No need to try to "hold back tears" as you listen to her sing; let yourself go. We all do. Check out her astoundingly beautiful take on "Bohemian Rhapsody" at age 13 on America's Got Talent, The Champions; Queen liked it so much they allowed her to copyright her version. She's just magical.
Well said Owen. 🩵👣
@@peterhormell1511 Thanks Peter. 👼

To me this is the embodiment of Divine Grace in sound. My only analogy would be, to the likes of Maria Callas, The stature, the elegance, the enrapturing beauty. We all are blessed with the privilege of witnessing this history of Ms. Jordan's transformative artistry. ♾ Rb
If you have never heard of Angelina Jordan before. You are in how one unbelievable ride. Her fans are called Angels by Angelina. She has been singing since 18 months old. I am sure many Angels have already given you a lot of info about this once in a century remarkable singer.
Welcome to the best female vocalist on the planet. She's been at it since 1.5 years old. Her first studio recording I've seen is from when she was six. You can find it on here. It will amaze you. After that there's about 199 more that will change your mind about the universe. I PROMISE you will fall in love with her. She's actually a real life angel. 👍♥️
This "woman" was only 17 in this performance at The Nobel Prize;) If you are new to her, hold your horses! lol She's been doing this for a long time giving similar reaction to everything she sings from age 7 to current age of 18. I can't say enough good things about her! I recommend taking the Angelina journey and I have no doubt you will fall in love with her and her voice:) I'm sure the comment section will give you suggestions for some of her 200+ vids, all outstanding. Yes, all;) Most will probably start at a young age, so I will recommend one from her recent concert in Las Vegas on Feb 29. ruclips.net/video/OZGGChzbgqE/видео.html
👣⭐⭐❤❤ The most beautiful music I have heard in the last 50 years. Only another 200 odd AJ masterpieces to go.
Welcome to the 🌍 of Angelina the princess of 🎷azz music who does not wear shoes 🦶🦶 during her performance and for a very good reason... Enjoy...👑🗣🎙
Welcome to the world of Angelina! She is Norwegian and can sing just about anything and make it her own. She always pays homage to the original artist yet makes the cover her own. She is really just a power house at the ripe age of 18.
It's dangerous! Once you enter it , there is no way out. Believe me😁
@@fidenemini111 Just like Aurora, easy to get in, impossible to get out. Not that you want to...
@@vereshshagin Ha. Who is also Norwegian .. what the the heck to they put in the water there?
Actually her genius comes mostly from her Iranian heritage
She is absolutely an angel sent from heaven
Yes, so true.
Angelina Jordan was born in Oslo Norway in 2006. She first won fame singing Billie Holiday's Gloomy Sunday auditioning for Norway's Got Talent at age 7, although she's been singing since she was eighteen months old. She performs barefoot after giving her shoes to a poor girl in the Middle East at around age 6. She's currently signed with Republic Records. To get an idea of the depth of her talent, I suggest you react to her arrangement of Screamin' Jay Hawkins' blues classic, I Put A Spell On You, recorded when she was 9. Here's a link: ruclips.net/video/nwFloCPXzCs/видео.html
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 considered a prodigy as an artist and poet.
Angelina speaks Norwegian, Farsi, English, Japanese and Swedish.
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. Angelina plays the piano, violin, guitar and flute and also paints. 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.
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 6 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.
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.
A 9 years and 2 months old, 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.
On June 27, 2018, at age 12, Jordan performed “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.
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 concerts scheduled in Norway in July 2022.
Personally, Angelina as a great human being and her music came into my life when I needed it most. Her music has improved the quality of my life more than I can express. I now introduce her to as many people as I can, with the hope her music will do the same for others. We know once her family believes the time is right and allows Republic Records to fully promote her, she will become the superstar she has always dreamt and believed she would be.
I encourage others to use this biography to help educate others about the love, empathy, magic and beauty that is Angelina Jordan Astar and her unique music.
wonderful summary
There hasn't been a day in the last 4 years I haven't played an Angelina track ( over 200 to choose from ) to lift my spirit, she truly is One in a Billion. Now the hard part recommending another track to watch, there are literally so many amazing performance, my favorite away from the obvious two " Bohemian Rhapsody " and " I Put a Spell on You " black and white version, would be her self penned studio version of " A Million Miles " when she was 14 I think, and the Elvis cover of " Suspicious Minds " . I loved your reaction as it is so rewarding seeing AJ acknowledged for being such a class act.
Welcome to the Jordan Journey. The first time she was honored with the invite to the Noble Peace Prize she was 8 years old. Here you see Angelina at 17. She has graced us with her magical voice from above for the last 12 years, and she is just getting started. Hope to see you around because Angelina will make you feel this way every single time.
A classic song personified by an artist who is on the verge of capturing the attention of every human being on the planet Earth with her soulful voice which transitions into a sound of love in it's purest form and touches our hearts with a feeling so warm we have never felt anything like it before in our lives. only Angelina...
Angelina Jordan the most predictably unpredictably brilliant artist you will ever find. She can flex her vocal tone, colour, texture dynamics any which way she pleases. This is a rare song as it shows off more of her vocal range than we normally see. That's because Angelina never sings to show off. She is an artist who treats her voice like a musical instrument to convey the emotion and story of the song. Her versitility means that her fans who listened to her every day since she auditioned for Norways Got Talent age 7. .... had no idea what her EP would be like last year age 17. To give an idea of her versitility please react to 2 origional songs from that EP NOW IM THE FOOL black and white mv and GOOD IN GOODBYES( love her lyrics in this one). We will see more of her now she's finished school and Republic Records are allowed to push her out. They signed her at 14. However her parents did allow her to perform in the school holidays and release UTube performances so there is a goldmine of exquisite performances to watch. There is no bad one. However as she has learnt by exploring every genre from ETTA JAMES, ELVIS, TO MICHAEL JACKSON, any song by ADELE is worth a listen she kills ADELE. Favourites of mine... there are too many to list.
So beautiful to see these powerful reactions from people who have no clue who she is. Our girl's all growed up now.
