    We Angelina angels (fans) never tire of watching people reacting to her for the first time. She was around her 9th birthday for this performance and she created the arrangement as she always does. Angelina is 16 now and her family is very wise and loving to not have Republic Records promote her yet. Please read the biography I compiled for my all time favorite musical artist.
    Born Angelina Jordan Astar on January 10, 2006 in Oslo, Norway to her Norwegian mother, Sara Astar and her Swedish father, Gerry Christian Slattman.
    Angelina started singing around 18 months of age, after listening to Whitney Houston on RUclips. She quickly became obsessed with listening to music videos and her maternal grandmother, Mery Zamani got Angelina interested in classic jazz. Mery Zamani is Iranian and was a prodigy as an artist and poet while growing up in Iran.
    Angelina attended the Oslo Waldorf School and participated in the Oslo School of Music and Performing Arts after-school program, where starting around age 4, she had training in music but no vocal training. Her teachers were smart enough to not attempt to change what she was doing vocally. More recently she along with her grandmother have designed and made the clothing she wears on stage.
    *Why Angelina always performs barefoot*
    At age 6, while traveling in the Middle East with her mother and grandmother, Angelina noticed a girl around her age standing on the side of the road, asking people to step on her bathroom scale to be weighed in hopes of getting some money. Angelina took off her shoes so as to not get the scale dirty and stepped on the scale many times to make the girl feel better. Angelina befriends the girl who was not wearing shoes and has scars on her feet, and learns she is an orphan. The orphan girl tells Angelina how beautiful she thinks her shoes are. Angelina says her shoes don’t fit her well and she wants to give her shoes to the orphan girl who thanks Angelina for giving her the shoes.
    Angelina asked the girl what she wanted to be when she grew up and the girl replied, “I want to become a doctor, but that will never happen since I have no parents and I have siblings so I have to do whatever is necessary for us to survive.” Angelina told the girl to never give up on her dreams. The poor girl asked Angelina what she wanted to be when she grew up and Angelina replied that she wanted to sing for the whole world. The poor girl said she would pray every day so Angelina’s dream would come true.
    Angelina still says she thinks of that homeless girl every day and has always performed barefoot to remind her of all the children who are less fortunate. At age 9, she became the youngest published author in Norway’s history by writing a book about this encounter in the Middle East.
    Angelina, at age 6 and 7, did record a few songs in a recording studio at her school, most notably “I Who Have Nothing”, a truly remarkable performance for a 7 year old.
    At age 7, Angelina’s audition on Norway’s Got Talent, was a cover of Billie Holiday’s “Gloomy Sunday”, a song which was banned by a number of European countries during World War II because authorities worried the song would increase the suicide rate. Truly bizarre that this is the song to launch the career of a child musical prodigy. One of the judges on NGT cried.
    Angelina had turned 8 years old for her next performance on NGT, covering Billie Holiday’s “I’m a Fool to Want You” singing acapella which was required by NGT unless the singer also played an instrument while singing. This was the Judge’s cut round of the competition and was not performed in front of an audience.
    In the Semi Final round of NGT, Angelina sang “Bang Bang” which was written by Sonny Bono and was first performed by his wife Cher but is best known sung by Nancy Sinatra. The improvement in each performance is incredible even though there were only a couple months between them.
    In the Finals, Angelina did a cover of George Gershwin’s, “Summertime” and won the contest, capturing 46% of the votes from the ten finalists.
    When asked what she would like to do with the prize money she won (500,000 kroner or about $80,000), Angelina replied, “I want to give it to the poor children”.
    Angelina had become a star in her native Norway and her videos on RUclips went viral. She gave a few concerts during the summer of 2014 while 8 years old.
    In December 2014, Angelina realized a life-long desire to sing at the Save the Children's Peace Prize Celebration which is part of the Noble Peace Prize celebration.
    Angelina’s family took her to United States, Brazil, Germany, France, United Kingdom, Russia, South Korea, Singapore among other corners of Earth, to perform for heads of state and to help raise money for charity. All before Angelina turned 14.
    At age 9, Angelina recorded a music video covering the 1956 Jay Hawkin’s classic, “I Put a Spell On You”. The video begins by showing Angelina writing her “wishes” for how she wants to perform the song. Angelina has always created her own arrangements for her cover songs.
    At age 10 and just a week before her 11th birthday, Angelina recorded a demo of “I’m Still Holding Out for You”. Her family never pursued having that recording officially released but someone leaked it on a RUclips video. Thankfully, everyone involved with that song is now ok with the leaked version. Many angels (fans) believe this is one of Angelina’s best performances.
    When Angelina was 11, she performed a number of concerts in Norway with a jazz/rock band. Those concerts included up to 14 songs, each remarkably performed. Angelina seems to be at her best when on stage, never nervous, only 100% confident.
    Also at age 11, Angelina recorded her “It’s Magic” album which has, at times, been in the top 10 best selling jazz albums.
    On June 27, 2018, at age 12, Jordan performed “Fly Me to the Moon” for Quincy Jones in The O2 Arena in London. She has said that was the high point of her young career which was already in it’s 6th year.
    During 2018, Angelina lost her paternal grandfather, her friend Avicii and one of her idols, Aretha Franklin. She did a moving tribute for each.
    In 2019, Angelina accepted an invitation to compete in the 2nd season of America’s Got Talent (AGT), The Champions. She had, since age 3, wanted to perform for Simon Cowell and she earned his praise with her genius arrangement of “Bohemian Rhapsody”. The surviving members of Queen loved it so much they put a link to it on their Twitter. Angelina was eliminated after covering Elton John’s “Goodbye Yellow Brick Road”. Angelina’s family refused to sign any agreement with AGT.
    Angelina, before age 14, had covered more than 130 songs from 80 different artists, spanning at least 8 genres, all of which are available on RUclips. Angelina has always made changes to each song she covers and often her version is preferred over the original. On RUclips, search on The Complete Works of Angelina Jordan as Rusty Shackleford has put all songs in one file and has a complete playlist in the description of that video.
    The pandemic hit shortly after her performances on AGT and likely caused a change of plans by her family, most notably her Uncle Michael who is her manager. Her family agreed to a contract with Republic Records in August 2020. Republic Records declared Angelina Jordan their highest priority new artist. Reportedly her family requested Republic to allow her as normal a childhood as possible and therefore have yet to fully promote her.
    During the pandemic, Angelina was often seen buying meals for the homeless on the streets of Los Angeles.
    In November 2020, Angelina released “Million Miles” which she wrote after the passing of her beloved maternal grandfather. She dedicated the song to anyone who has ever lost a loved one.
    Angelina had previously released, 3 other original songs: “What is Life”, “Oslo” and “Shield”
    In April 2021, her original “7th Heaven” was released. A jazzy, danceable, inspiring song.
    Angelina has posted numerous short performances on Tik Tok and Instagram.
    Angelina had concerts in Norway in July 2022.
    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

    She is nine here and did her own arrangement of this song and does most of the arrangements for her covers. She watched Screamin' Jay Hawkins (face on candle at the beginning) doing his own song many years ago and she loved it and wanted to do her own version. His version is here in RUclips so you can watch it if you like. She has a huge following and is now 16, turning 17 on January 10, 2023. She won Norway's Got Talent when she was 7-8 years old and became an internet sensation. There is a video that has all four songs she sang for that. It is an amazing thing watching her at 7 years old singing Billie Holliday. If you are going to watch that video make sure you get the one with translations .. cause even though she sings in English on all songs it's nice to understand what the judges are saying. I highly recommend this video.
    Angelina has over 200 videos on RUclips now. Mostly covers, some interviews and five original songs: "What is Life?", her very first original .. charming and dear; "Oslo", about her home town in Norway; "Shield", an homage to her family, who is extraordinary and protect her always (I hear it as a hymn myself); "Million MIles" which she wrote about her grandfather who died and was her first video after signing with Republic Records .. it was at the first part of covid and she Said this song was for anyone who had ever lost a loved one .. and then there's "7th Heaven" a jazzy and lovely song with some positive ideas on life.
    You will hear a LOT from the Angels (that is her devoted fans .. we call ourselves Angels) about her amazing generosity and her kindness and also about her great family. Right now I have to stop .. but I feel sure you will be told many stories about her as well as given recommendations for songs to listen to together.
    I love love love the two of you together and look forward to more reactions from you both!!!

    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. Her early influences are Billie Holiday, Dinah Washington, and Etta James to name a few. Her love of jazz came from her grandmother playing jazz music around her when she was young. She entered 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!" Not only that, but she received the copyrights for her version of this song from Queen, which makes it hers now. She did not win, but her fan base grew and expanded her popularity.
    Now 16 years old, living in Los Angeles, and is signed with Republic Records, whose clients include Taylor Swift, Ariana Grande, The Weeknd, and Drake to name a few. Her family and Republic Records have agreed not to heavily promote her just yet so she can live as normal of a life as possible and finish her schooling. She is working on a new album of original music which will be coming out next year. She recently 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.
    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 shoeless homeless 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. 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 has produced over 160 covers of all genres and she has made them all hers while keeping recognition and loyalty to the original.

You can head back in time to Norway’s got Talent which she entered when she was seven. she had 4 amazing performances, one of which was a cappella, which was basically pitch and timing perfection. She has several originals which she wrote between 11-and 15. She has performed so many songs, covering many different genre. You will never be able to guess from one song to the next wait to expect. She has an amazing ability to be distinctly Angelina while sounding so different with each of them. I’m quite sure you will be considering yourselves”Angels” very soon.

You may think this an exaggeration but listen to a few more of her many performances (160+ covers plus original songs - all on YT) and you will see! She has been performing at a high level all over the world since age 8 when she won Norway's Got Talent singing Billie Holiday, Nancy Sinatra, and Gershwin. It is the rare singer that can, as Angelina has done, go from Queen to "Screamin" Jay Hawkins to Adele to Elvis to Whitney Houston to Michael Jackson to Etta James to James Brown to Amy Winehouse to the Beatles (and many others in between) and do them all justice!
    If you want to hear music, listen to anyone. If you want to feel music, listen to Angelina. She will stagger you with her ability to find and bring forth the 'essence', the emotional message of nearly any song. You have far to go with Angelina. She is equally comfortable and equally able to impact us whether singing a cappella, accompanied only by a piano or guitar, in front of professional studio musicians or a 40-piece military band. With her immense vocal toolkit, arranging ability (yeah, that too, since about 8yo or so) and the work ethic to make what she does only 'seem' effortless, she will hopefully be touching hearts for a long time to come.
    Why God has performed the miracle of touching the world with one of such talent, musical IQ, commitment, and generosity as Angelina we can wonder but we must all marvel. Welcome aboard the AJ train! Please react to more of her impressive library.
    It is truly a conundrum when we try to rationalize how it is possible that this tiny sweet-faced 9yo Norwegian girl can step up to a microphone, flip some switch within her, become this "beast-mode" version of herself (most probably named "AJ don't play"), deliver an extraordinary and musically and socially sophisticated performance, then just-like-that return to the pensive young lady once again... There aren't words for this!
    "I Put a Spell On You" has been covered many times and is recognized as a classic, yet almost never is the tone of the original 1956 "Screamin" Jay Hawkins version captured. This is because Hawkins was the original shock-rock guy (think Ozzy Osbourne-type craziness) and his style is difficult to emulate and also because his dated delivery is uncomfortable and stereotypical to our modern sensibilities. Yet Angelina respectfully sings his own song in a manner that exceeds his (Hawkin's image is on the candle she holds at the start of her video).
    You must go and listen to Hawkins' original (and throw in a couple of "famous" covers as well) to see the true genius in how AJ incorporates many of his vocal elements [usually omitted by most singers]. This shows another aspect of her musical IQ and arranging genius (not to mention her masterful control of her vocal instrument equaled by few others regardless of age).

    Welcome to the barefoot princess! She is absolutely angel sent from heaven, I am totally convinced, I feel it in my heart every time I listen to her. You need to hear her version of I’m still holding out for you. The song was sent to her by baby fuzz to do a demo tape for him. Her version of the song was never supposed to be released. Well it got leaked her family and baby fuzz got together and talked about it and let it stay on the Internet. She was only 10 years old when she did this. The barefoot princess is so humble, down to earth, i’m 54 years old she is absolutely the best thing I’ve ever heard in my life. Going to scribe just to watch your journey with Angelina Jordan AKA. The barefoot princess/ The girl with 1000 voices.

    Hi Dashy and Dad, glad you took a peek down Angelina's rabbit hole. You are at the very beginning and I hope you continue on your journey because there is a lot to discover, she is the best singer in the world (my opinion) but you will find out for yourself and believe me you become just as addicted to her voice as all other fans (angels), she is also called the barefoot angel with 1000 voices, why she always performs barefoot is another story, she can adapt and improve her voice to every song and also transport many emotions and not only does it have around 170 covers but also 5 originals which are all amazing and legendary even now and there is a lot to tell, i look forward to more reactions and have subscribed to you now, greetings from germany

    She is doing a tribute to Screaming Jay Hawkins. Rest assured she is watched after closely by her family. She is 16 years old now. One interview she said she is reminded of her real age when she looks at her passport. She actually arranged this cover herself. She is considered a Child prodigy. Enjoy she has hundreds of covers from age 6 to 16. She has written several songs all very good. She won Norways got talent at age 7/8.

  • @ronraskind
    @ronraskind Год назад +8

    Thank you for your enthusiastic reaction to Angelina. Your response was not surprising! I will speak for both of you...Thanks Andy! LOL! Two of Angelina's great influences are Adele and Amy Winehouse along with Whitney Houston! She has a few songs on RUclips on her Channel from all of them and they are stellar!
    Norwegian born Angelina 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 the youngest ever vocalist to win an international Got Talent Show! She also went viral on America's Got Talent the champions in 2020 with her unique version of Bohemian Rhapsody. Angelina sings in English which unbelievably is her third language! She is a true prodigy.
    She is now 16, 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 almost two years ago. She is not widely promoted yet, however, as her family has decided to wait until she graduates school, so she has a normal childhood.
    Here is a link from ages 6 to 16 of 106 Angelina chronological RUclips performances with five originals.
    m.ruclips.net/p/PL2v8kgVeo4EbYDVnRwObjETfWpXbzbgIO
    Here is a more comprehensive playlist of 180 videos with RUclips, tiktok, Instagram.
    ruclips.net/p/PL2v8kgVeo4EbQD6l_WAVjOfItquzW7oEc
    Why does Angelina sing barefoot? The answer may bring a tear to your eye.
    When she was 6 years old, she was 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 shoes and 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 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.

This is a deep rabbit hole -- enjoy the trip! Great reaction from you both! She is now 16, and I can ASSURE you that she has been (and still is) under great care and protection by her VERY close-knit family (her uncle is her manager) and by her mentor Rob Christie, multiple Grammy winner and an executive producer at Republic Records with which she signed in 2020 at age 14. She is a kind, loving, empathetic, humanitarian soul and VERY well-grounded. That being said, I know that even the best human beings can go astray; so I do often pray for her journey, her protection, and decision making. She's a phenomenon!

    Angelina decides for herself. When it comes to the actual training and choice of songs etc., it has always been Angelina who made all the choices and decisions. Parents and others, on the other hand, have asked her to take it a little easier sometimes. Angelina is very special and her own driving force. Ever since she was 3-4 years old! Of course, all relatives and frends, have helped and protected her. Angelina and her closest, decided early on that she would have as normal a childhood as possible. Even when she won NGT, 8 years old, many wanted to sign a contract. Everyone was dismissed! Even Disney. And this Norwegian girl sings in English! Do you know that she speaks several languages.

      Nice reaction. This song was my first time learning about Angelina. It has been about 3 years since then and my life hasn't been the same. She has covered so many songs, so many different genres, so perfectly. I really can't listen to any of my music I once listened to. Don't even want to.
      I have watched so many different reaction channels discover Angelina and then day by day as they do their thing and fall in love with this unbelievable voice and the emotional roller-coaster that comes with listening to Angelina is just amazing.
      Time and time again I watch some one react to either this song or HER Bohemian Rhapsody. I capitalize her because after she performed it on AGT the champions, the surviving members of Queen gave her the copyright for her version. To me that's pretty amazing. This is at age 13. Not to shabby for a teenager.
      So in between "I Put A Spell On You" and AGT there are probably 25 covers that are in the top 20 best performances ever. The other 100 or so are master class. Then after AGT she has continued to be the consummate artist. I am sure that she will be a household name in the near future. It amazes me that she isn't better known. She's been around for years and has had some amazing performances for some pretty famous people. I'm sure you will already know this because any one of the Angels will not hesitate to fill a page or more with their favorite part of Angelina's career.
      I mainly wanted to comment here that I am looking forward to watching more of your reactions to Angelina. Be ready for your channel to blow up.
      She was 9 singing this.
      Still blows me away.

She won Norway's Got Talent at age 8, after which all the record companies came knocking on her door, but her wise mother sent them all packing - even Disney! She is very well protected by a loving family and has recently signed a special record deal with Republic Records which will allow her to grow at her own pace. Incidentally, you say "almost as good as Adele" but many would argue she is already better! Check out her version of Easy On Me, or A Million Years Ago. She now has around 200 videos on her RUclips channel, and I urge you to explore more Angelina. You won't regret it! We angels will be following your journey closely!

Even Today at 16 she is humbel enough to know, that without her fans (she calls us angels) she would be nothing. She said so in summer in Norway, ask Andy, also ask Andy about me. Today she could already be a superstar, but wise beyond her years, she and her family decided to wait until she has finished school. That is next year. She also is the boss of her own company, managed by her uncle and her. Uncle mike has 2 little girls to look after. And she is a very good employer, if you are good enough for her standards. She already is a very influential person in the music industry. And she is a humanitarian. So, fam, stay safe and sound. Elmar from Germany.

    That was a great & fun reaction you 2, to (9) Angie. Angie said it in an interview a year later (when she
    was around 10 at interview) about this song: “It means love , Desperate love. It's very special, it's almost voodoo , The original is very nice, and when I scream it is a desperate cry that everyone should love each other.” - AJ. I give new Angie reactors a welcome pack, please read. She chooses all her own songs &
    does all her own arrangements ever since she was very young, even when she did Screaming Jay Hawkins (Guy on candle) “I put a spell on you”, at barely 9 (when filmed), even at 7 & 8 on NGT (Norway’s Got Talent). On AGT-C season 2 Angie & her grandma Mery made her outfit from silkscreen patterns of her grandma's art work when she was 13 back in Norway. They makes several of her other outfits for shows & concerts too. She also paints great, plays 5 instruments & speaks & sings 4+ languages, English being her 3rd. Angie turned 16 on 1-10-22. Angie is a very kind, giving, loving, respectful, humble & a big hearted Christian girl. She always sings barefoot when performing & she wrote a book about it at 9 called
    “Between Two Hearts” & she was/is the youngest to be published in Norway.
    (Why does Angie performs barefoot. Angelina gives a short little interview explaining why she performs barefoot. ruclips.net/video/-cCLDY0CSZ8/видео.html) Angie has arranged over 200 covers from 70 different artist
    so far & written 5 songs & has had 2 written for her also so far, & she’s mastered over 10 genre’s already
    at 13. One of her nicknames is “The barefoot Angel/Princess with a 1000 voices & a Mona Lisa smile”
    & the “Queen of jazz”. Angie never sings a song the same way twice, so you could say they’ll all be
    1st time reactions. Angie sings like an instrumentalist, combined with narrative music. Another reason she’s so especially rare & great. Angie is like a 2006 Bordeux in the Meroc but we’ll say Norway =) Her voice still wont fully mature for another 10-15 years. Then it can be opened. WOW , the aroma, color, texture & than we get to taste/hear it =) On AGT-C she wouldn't sign with Simon & after she won NGT she turned
    down 90% of the offers even Disney. She's done Adele & Amy W. songs also.
    Angie On AGT Champions at 13 singing her rendition of “Bohemian Rhapsody” by Queen. ruclips.net/video/7gQljxeaNuM/видео.html (The performance was so astounding that Queen themselves posted a video of the teen singing 'Bohemian Rhapsody' on their twitter page with the caption:” Wow!!! What a rendition @angelinajordanA” And in an even more extraordinary turn of events, Queen then reportedly
    gave Angelina her blessing to record and release her own version of the song by giving her the copyright to do so.)

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”. My personal favorite is her cover of Lana Del Rey's "Born To Die". Although “Mercy” is really growing on me.
    Let’s analyze the video:
    1st you see how small and cute she is.
    2nd you see she is barefoot (story below)
    3rd You see her making her “Wish List” of suggested changes to the song.
    4th the band leader taking note of the changes.
    5th Angelina is holding a candle with “Screemin’ Jay Hawkin’s (original artist 1956) picture on it.
    6th the old soul in her voice.
    She is the youngest published author in Norway. Angelina wrote and her Grandmother illustrated a book about why she sings barefoot. She was on a trip to Iran where her grandmother is from and met a street girl weighing people for money. Angelina sat and talked with the girl. Angelina asked the girl what she wanted to be when she grew up and the girl replied, a doctor but that it could never happen. Angelina told her to never give up hope. The girl complimented Angelina on her shoes and Angelina noticed her scarred bare feet so she gave them to her, and the little girl told Angelina she would pray for her every day. Angelina sings barefoot to this day to remind herself (and the world) that there are still children in need. All book proceeds go to charity.

    Angelina was 9 years old in this performance - This song was not arranged for her - she wrote the arrangement based on listening to the original Screamin' Jay Hawkins version - in fact, at the beginning of the video you see Angelina writing down some last-minute changes and it is read by the bandleader. You also notice that her own handwritten notes are on the music stand in front of her as she sings. For more insight info how Angelina works, here is a rehearsal video with the same band at the same age (9 yrs old) - You will see that she is aware of what each musician is doing and gives them some instructions. There are English subtitles as the spoken language is Norwegian: ruclips.net/video/SAkZDAXJA4E/видео.html

    Great that you have discovered Angelina. She is not comparable with any other singer, she is unique and affects lots of people including me. People all over the world travelled to Norway this summer to see and listen to her. She was incredible.
    Imo the best voice ever.
    She put a spell on me almost 3 years ago, listen to her music at least one hour every day

    I love this performance so much. As they say AJ don't play and we get the most stunning, amazing performance of a 9 yr old of this Jazz standard ever created. I believe it is going to go down in Jazz & Music history as the best ever for this age and in my opinion the best rendition of this song ever created Screamin Jay included. It will be revisited for Decades and will remain relevant for Generations to come. Anyone who discovers this performance for the first time today or a 100 years from today are going to be as amazed and astounded as everybody has been to this point.
    Think of the children who will be inspired by this one performance in the decades to come. This is an Iconic performance and will always be Iconic. Angelina has on her own from early on at 6 or 7 yrs old reintroduced what I believe will be a whole new Jazz Era and redefined by this young phenom and prodigy. That is astounding! And she is just 16 years old... That is unfathomable!... Oh Lord... what is coming the world is not prepared for but we as fans have been on the edge of our seats and will remain there as we wait. No hurry. We want Angelina to do it her way when she is ready. She has already established her proficiency and incredible work ethic in this endeavor guided by an incredible family and professional support now surrounding her.

    We know Angelina will continue to amaze! We will be here to experience and cherish it for as long as we live.... and I am praying for many more years for myself to enjoy it till the end of my days... I hope to go out of this world listening to the most beautiful voice ever created for man just as Angelina came into it to fulfill her purpose, what she was put on earth to do, sing for the whole World... and Me! To me Angelina is always singing to me transporting me to that beautiful place she inhabits when she sings and to experience it with her. She has the ability to touch hearts and souls and change lives. She has the ability to change lives on a personal level and the power to change lives on a global scale. To me no one compares.
    You just watched a Masterpiece! Destined to go down in Music History as the best performance by a 9 yr old, Period! Past, present & dare I say Future! I'd like to see anyone, young or old who can do a cover of this & with the justice it deserves as Angelina has done on every cover she does. ♥👣👸🏻

    Sorry it took me so long to check your reaction out (8 hours on a Sunday ... must be the time change haha). Very fun to see the two of you react together to Angelina. As you said, Dad, "she knows *exactly* what she's doing!" Truer words were never spoken. And she always has, from everything her ardent fans have seen over the years on RUclips. Cannot wait to see you check out some of Angelina's other covers (and originals). Cheers! 😇
