In my opinion, this was Angelina's breakout song. After this performance, I no longer thought of her as a child singer.
Dinah and Billie Holiday were the two that affected Angelina the most. Once
she heard them, she knew it was jazz that she loved the best. She can do
virtually any genre to perfection but jazz is in her bones !
You're Right,, I don't think SHE will ever sing it better, than this performance,,, Perfect time place age of voice
Before Angelina, I used to think that all of those performers were great. I still think that they are good, but Angelina is truly great....
I can listen to this performance by Angelina a million times and it never ceases to amaze me, her voice kind of envelopes me as a warm blanket.
If this performance was recorded and sold, it should be a number one hit and live forever.
Jerry Larocque said it perfectly, this was the moment when she established herself as a wonderful artist, not just a child singer.
It is a common place to say but I'll say it. Her music comes directly from her soul! This kind of gift can't be taught, it just is part of Angelina.
She had released it, you can buy it on all platforms 😊💕
It sounds wonderful lovely ❤️
I can't imagine how many times I've listened to her sing this song, with those eyes closing as she sways on stage, gently, quietly, going nowhere, just here and now in that Angelina space...
She often plays homage to the originals she covers and this is a perfect example. She performed it in the style of the original. In my opinion, she followed the original but did it better with her own subtle interpretations. She can hold her own with anyone living or dead and I'm glad I get to hear her sing.
It seems in the beginning she was close to the original, but later on her style is very much akin to Dinah Washington. Perhaps paying tribute to the history of the song. Every time I think of her singing I find a new depth to it.
We are very lucky, especially in that she's given us 140+ homemade videos over the years. How many professional singers do that? What a lucky bunch we are to be able to watch her grow and sing and become more herself...
She’s 8 years old here and sounds better than all of these legends 🤯 I’ve given up trying to figure out how she does what she does..she just is ..)) love your thoughtful reaction Nate. Take care ))
Thanks! And you.
Hi, Kevin! Just stopped by to say hello! Hope everything is well with you. Yes, I agree with you. It's fun to try to analyze what's going on with her but, there is no question, the right approach to Angelina is to settle back, listen and enjoy.
I think we all want to give her our strength, but we'll have to settle for giving her our love and support. She reaps what she sows, love and kindness.
I can say is wow wow wow wow this girl is Fantastic ❤️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️❤️ her timing is so good she just makes you feel so Good Born with a package total package she’s everything but he has more unique ones than others can NOT copy💞 No I have tears in my eyes she does this to me all the time
Prodigy she was born with this gift just saying you share her love and words even at the age of eight she’s a master artist looking paint a picture with words send emotions to your spirit from her spirit!
It's the unquantifiable that separates her from the rest, there's just something about her....
Angelina is the best , I adore her
GREAT IS ALL YOU CAN SAY FOR ANGELINA! SHE GOES FOR THE STAR'S WITH EVERY WORD. CHILD PRODIGY. GOD SENT HER DOWN FROM HEAVEN! BLESS YOU ANGELINA. WE ALL LOVE YOU!
Oh my God, I realized only now, after you've showed the original, that Angelina imitated Dinah Washington so well, it blows my mind! But she doesn't just copy the original, she feels the song and made it her own, what a performance at the age of 8! Unbelievable. She's the eighth wonder of the world to me.
Thanks for this journey through the history of this song. This one performance, changed my view of Angelina, from being an amazing child singer to becoming a professional artist, irrespective of age. I can happily listen to this each and every day, it never fails to lift my spirits.
Angelina is simply a legend.
I watched all the other singers, and I didn’t get chills or my eyes didn’t well up with tears until Angelina started singing. That’s the difference! Her emotions go straight from her heart to our hearts. Also, I noticed that she took it down even slower than Dinah did. She always slows it down, is never in a hurry, and is not afraid of “dead space.” We also need to keep in mind that she’s eight years old here, not in her 30’s, 40’s, 50’s or 60’s! She doesn’t have years and years of experience singing or being in front of a large audience. How is all this even possible? It’s only a gift from God!
Hi Nate
Excellent reaction! made me think.
It’s Angelina’s timing that a lot of people miss is what makes her the best in the world!
Could you believe what is going through the backup singers head...we are singing to back up a kid, Lord have mercy. Her tone and timing is crazy for a kid !
I could just repeat what everyone else says.
She is just incredible. Their is no comparison.
Her voice just covers you like a warm blanket.
I agree with you Mr Host of the show...I too am a super-fan of Angelina Jordan
Many reactors talk about how fantastic she is at 6, 7, 8, or 9. But what was her mental and emotional age when she sang these early performances? The story of her giving her shoes away at 6 is an indication she had an exceptional maturity even then. She carried that forward in her early works. So despite her young age (In an interview, She said "I only feel 12 (young) when I look at my passport."), she has had a maturity of personality and skill that shines through, demonstrating a vibrant authenticity one can only marvel at. What a blessing to the world!
I agree completely. "Vibrant authenticity."
Love her best. Angelina blows most out of the park. I can't hear enough of her. My favorite is her 1dt time in the studio singing I Who Have Nothing. What a Gift she is to us.
Hi nate love this reaction and I agree with all you say and I do love the other singers she is only 8 and she can out sing them all. She is born with this talent its god given. 💞
🎵🎵🎵 😊😊😊 🎵🎵🎵
Put her up against legends anytime. Legends in studio, and she performe live... It doesent matter..She is the greatest anyway..always.
At age 15 she should be much more famous than she is. She is a U Tube star, but she should be a international Jazz Star. She is so much better than all the other new talent out there because she is different. She is Unique She has 2+ million views for her new single "MILLION MILES" in 4 months, but it should have been much more. We have been waiting for a new album from Angelina ever since AGT Champions 2020 . We even hoped for a Christmas album.
What great reaction yes Angelina is one of a kind
I cry, that's my main problem, damn she makes me emotional! It's just amazing to me, and like you, one month after I discovered her. , I'm obsessed too! It's a healthy obsession👍 sheer mastery of everything she touches..🤷
Often people say: she is so captivating! That is more real than just an expression. She gets your attention and she trusts on it you are with her in the song and she enjoys guiding you through it on her magic carpet! Indeed so calm and confident! And the flight is back in time!!! You go back to your childhood somehow and she makes it safe! (of course this holds for people who are open minded and willing to be vulnerable!)
Wonderful reaction Nate!
🙏🏻 🎵 🎵 🎵 🎵 🎵
Every one else is compared to Angelina, only Dinah comes close to her vocal artistry, Angelina takes each note and squeezes every possible essence that can be brought out of it. she never stops a note until it surrenders to her every ounce of beauty it holds. Angelina supersedes every one past and present. That is just the way it is!!!
Yep. That about says it.
Dinah Washington, BY FAR the best version there's ever going to be, and the best musical arrangement to, those powerful violins etc
Angelina's secret weapon is her emotional connection. She isn't just singing - she's reaching into my soul. It's uncanny.
was angelina the only one live, with no gimmicks or studio enhancement ,left um standing she is a treasure, lovely reaction
That was my thought too, so I went back and listened to the first part (Frank, Bing, Tony, etc.), all of which sound like studio recordings. Yet here's 8-year-old Angelina singing live, outdoors, in a single take, in front of ~6,000 people (plus a TV audience), delivering what in my opinion is the best performance of all. Never ceases to amaze.
@@bygeorge100 i listened to music and lost interest the last 10 years or so ,then angelina popped her head up and i did not think a child could revive my love of music as she has done,im a bricklayer and pound the canteen with her music and the singalongs are great with the lads lol
I'm 75 years old. I'm so glad I lived long enough to listen to Angelina.! I've never heard better in my life.!
Nate thanks for the collection of other covers of this jazz classic. Angelina was just born with the incredible talent of perfect timing, rhythm and command of negative space which allows her to deliver a song unlike any other. While all other vocalists have had to train to learn how to sing, Angelina is a natural and we know she continues to work hard to improve. No apologies for being a super angel, we have been put under a spell and recognize Angelina's unique natural talent along with her humanity.
I hope to do more of this sort of thing.Thank you!
Angelina has the jazz timing just like Dina
Angelina is like an impossible character in a great novel or movie,yet there she is.She is a gift to us all,always was,always will be.You really get that and thus I love your reactions.
Angelina is a polished professional genius that has been
wowing crowds since she was 6 years old.
All of the professional voice teachers who have reacted to AJ over the
years have been astonished at her abilities and find it difficult to describe
her because they have never experienced anyone like her.
❤️ your reaction and I’m a superfan to 👍🙂
Angelina just warms my soul.
So precious, for the rest of my life I will be listening to her, I'm a Super fan ..lol.. love her. Thank you Nate
Thanks Nat, fr the beautiful analysis with this beautiful roundup of great performers of this song. Surely Dinah among adults remains the most effective and fascinating, but also our little and fantastic singer, in this interpretation of her, is taking Dinah as a model, but she able to however add further flavor and make the song even more attractive ... I totally agree with you, how she can do it at just 8 years old is just unreal 🤗 ❤️
Thank you! It's fun to react to multiple singers, especially when Angelina comes along and easily goes beyond them... I shall attempt to do more like this.
There are so many things about angelina which are hard to believe 🙏🙏👍👍💙💙
Meet a fellow 'SUPER FAN' from Mumbai , India. I could listen to her all day, all week, all year all my life.....
And consider my life fulfilled
She is "young" before singing and become young again when she finished the song BUT ... when singing she is just a Soul with a Voice
Interesting thanks enjoyed the way you did this reaction. Still loved ANGELINA the best even at her age here
for me it was an amazing 6 years of listening to her (I was lucky to find her right next to Evancho, Janeckova, Amira ..) Angelina is like a breeze, unobtrusive but pleasant, you can believe her every word .. I believe that this fluid will remain what longest ..
She's phenomenal.
This is the first song I saw her singing and instantly fall in love with this major artist!! Just LOVE everything about her at any age and any song... unbelievable!! Another super fan here!
Your mention of phrasing brings me back again to something I have thought for a long time about her performances. The more Angelina makes a song 'her own', the more it feels like she is having a conversation with you - unscripted, honest, heartfelt, comforting.
Ah, yes... Such a casual warm-heartedness. And so curious - she has such intimate access to my soul, yet she could pass me on the street and never know it...
Yes dear Nate there is a difference 😍😍😍😍😍
I 100% AGREE
She gets the cake !!!!
Maybe I should eat some in her honor...
Angelina's performance is closest to Dinah Washington's. But Angelina softens the vocals, which in my opinion pulls you in more, emotionally. How an eight year old girl can do that, blows me away. She sings it, like she has lived it.
Thanks for doing this Nate. I only found Angelina fumbling through the net about 6months ago. Having just discovered reactions, I was watching reactions to Bohemian Rhapsody and I guess I saw AJ's version and decided to check it out. I'd forgotten that I saw her on AGT. Then I saw "Spell" and then hooked! Can't get enough and my wife says I'm obsessed. She just has me under her spell with the way she gets to my emotions. At 65 I've never experienced anything like it. btw My favorite singer has been Haley Reinhart for several years, since she was on American Idol around 10 years ago. Haley is now 2nd lol
Haley is amazing. And yes, I am definitely obsessed with Angelina...
You will not be the last to be blown away by her...
Indeed, it's why I love reaction videos. One by one the new folks show up, and fall in love right before my eyes. 💜
I'm smiling and crying at the same time, I don't know why
Excellent, makes perfect sense when your heart is stirred and cared for...
Nate, like you I have been binge watching Angelina’s performances for over a year now and there are common reactor’s comments and opinions that are repeated over and over again. One of the most widely expressed opinions is “She’s an old soul.” or “How?! How can a child this young be able to sing a such an advanced level?” There is also the question asked, “How is it possible for a child this young to even comprehend and understand the adult content of the lyrics?”
When I look at what Angelina, the person, has accomplished so far in her young life I have come to the conclusion that Angelina is endowed with a genius level intellect, hyper sensitivity, feel and acute level of self awareness, instincts and intuition. There is no better example of the accumulation of those attributes than her six year old studio performance of, Tom Jones’, “I who have nothing.” Many reactors rightly comment on Angelina nearly incomprehensible jaw dropping singing ability. However, what so many of them overlook is the fact that six year old Angelina is reading the adult level lyrics while singing. If you watch a reaction of that performance with subtitles you will see that Angelina was questioning her performance. The engineer assured her that it was a good performance.
IMO, there are a great many very talented and outstanding young singers, none of them I have heard are Angelina’s equal. The vast majority of them do not write their own songs or arrangements to others. They also tend to stay within one musical genre. Angelina is the most uniquely gifted and versatile young musical prodigy I have ever seen and heard. She is the complete package. She is a singer, song writer and composer. How many of the young singers out there can say that they wrote and recorded four songs by the time they were twelve years old? How many of them have the ability to rewrite the arrangements to cover sings?
Very superb reaction Nate, You have voiced exactly what I have observed in the 12 to 13 years I have followed Angelina I have been astonished by her abilities and flat-out professionalism regardless of age. I'm 79 years old and have never done this with any artist I grew up in a time of plenty when it came to entertainers and vocalists with an abundance of them being very good to outstanding but no one has affected me as Angelina has, she is truly a prodigy and a gift from the universe for all.
Yours is the best reaction ever to Angelina's rendition of this classic.
All best from Germany
Only Angelina
not enough words to describe what we hear,that soul ,vocals, melts the steel.....so wonderful
love this performance!
Yeah, wow! says it all. Great reaction Nate. I never tire of listening to this performance and watching the wonderful surroundings, like the reaction of that one lady who was moved to tears. You hear that beautiful introduction, then AJ sings that first line and you are instantly stopped in your tracks, transfixed, transported. No question, the best version of this song ever done.
It's so fun seeing so many others who feel as I do about this performance. Her spirit shines so purely...
@@natevibe5817 Sometimes I feel like I'm crazy obsessed, then I see all the superfans like Rusty, you, and so many others watching and doing reactions and I think this really is something special. It seems now to be mostly older folks who have a connection to this great music from another era, but I'm sure it's only a matter of time until she starts to connect more with a younger audience. I've said it before, I really feel like she is a tonic that the whole world could benefit from right now.
You're officially a Super Fan! Angelina seems to have been born with an intuitive understanding of all the notes surrounding the main note of any melody. She caresses the melody with all these clusters of harmonious touches of melody, PLUS that impeccable phrasing/timing. She has a genius "ear" for music and she loves it to pieces, every single note, word, phrase, and song. You're so right -- there's no one else like her! Mozart maybe? Thanks for a great compilation of singers. Please continue to do these comparisons. It was terrific.
Yay! Such enthusiasm! I embrace all of your Angelina comments, "every note, word, phrase..." I am definitely a super fan. And yes, I'd like to do more comparisons. So many songs to pick from...
@@natevibe5817 "Phrasing", "timing" ... in jazz it is call "swing" ! a journalist once ask Louis Amstrong : "what is it, this "swing" you have to have to play jazz ?" ...He answered : "If don't have it, you will never know !" That is the swing ! :-)
Super fan too😀😂
Absolutely loved your reaction. The performance came from the stars!
Hearing them all in a row emphasises even more how extraordinary AJ is. Forget the age she was when she recorded it, it is way and above the best version with the most feeling.
This was absolutely lovely. Thank you 🙏 I get what you’re saying and feeling 100%. 💕
Love your reactions! Angelina has a real effect on you inside! I find she takes me on a trip in my mind!
Also all your comments are right on, you nailed it.
Thank you! Just speaking my mind, and a heart Angelinicized...
Nate Vibe, like you & I think everyone else who listens to this incredible singer I struggled to put words to what it is about Angelina's singing that leaves us smiling, laughing in disbelief (like you just were) that a young girl can possibly be so good. Yes Dinah Washington has a lovely voice & whoever chose her to sing it very cleverly knew that the pitch of her voice & ability to tell the story of the lyrics in the style she sings would make it a highly successful writer/ singer partnership. Angelina however goes beyond that & gently reaches into our inner self, our souls & caresses our emotions in a way that very few singers can do.
Very nice presentation., and Look at the age difference. wow and thanks: )
Fun thanks 😊
Nate, you’re not obsessed when you’re merely recognizing the best. Angelina is once in a lifetime, and maybe better than that.
I wish there was a way to give extra credit to you for what you do. You always go way beyond the norm. I guess it would be appropriate to say "You take the cake, on this one." 😊
Well, that made me smile! Thank you - I just do what comes naturally to me, a share and some awesome Angelina, with edits... But I'll take the cake, if you insist. Cheesecake, that is...
Your commentary is just beautiful. You have nailed her essence... singing from the space of now and bringing the audience with her. That is her power.
a very educational reaction, it was great! Dinah version with all the vibrato was really nice. It's the emotional content that Angelina puts into .it that really makes it so great.
Very interesting comparison thanks Nate.
I vote for Angelina's version - performing like that at at 8yo is unbelievable and what a beautiful environment, I'd love to go to that venue one day.
An absolute dream - to see her perform live!
Definitely think Angelina's version hit the bullseye. I don't know anything about Chantel but WOW!
Thanks for your reaction. I only listen to Angelina these days and love her like you do, but gonna go check out Chantal Chamberland too. Thanks again.
Yeah, Chantal was a nice discovery.
I'm blown away she's very young how she sing like that loved your reaction thanks
I agree with you .I really believe she can walk on water musically .if there is a God she must be listening to Angelina sings.
Best FORMAT, REACTION AND ANALYSIS. The time you put into it SHOWS. Thank you. I agree with everything you said 100%. All you can say is that she's a TRUE PRODIGY. I hope she continues to expand her talents(add modeling, dancing, acting, etc.) and try to collaborate with today's LIVING LEGENDS as well. Right now, her market is the 60+ listener who appreciates her interuptive covers of the classics of days gone by. Her own songs are very good, but she needs a proven song writer to pen something for her that will make her a contender in the Grammys. How about a duet with Harry Connick Jr. or doing a cover of Malissa Manchester's 'Don't Cry Out Loud'? Anyway, I guess we'll find out next year, when she graduates from high school at 17! Her future is limitless. Up until now, her family has been trying to give her as normal a childhood as possible, without exploitation. In this next phase, she needs to continue her professional training along with expanding her market appeal by getting into other endeavors like modeling, dancing, even acting, and not just being a Tic Toc celebrity.
I’ve said it a couple of hundred times and I’ll say it again, Angelina is the most supremely gifted musical artist I have ever heard. Watching her perform we can see her channeling the music from her mind through her whole body. Cerebrally, Angelina enters into her own special place when she performs. She sees and feels every note in her mind and she expresses what she sees and feels to us with her breath taking singing talent. Angelina has the very rare ability to completely command and hold her audience’s full attention. We can not help, but to become mesmerized, captivated, hypnotized and profoundly smitten with her immense and unique talent. She directly connects to our souls and makes us feel like she is singing to us individually. What a blessing she is.
Thank you for you Nice Word and reaction.. Yes Angelina is best 🌞
Nate, when it's her turn you just smile shake your head and listen to something so beautiful it's almost beyond belief. She was meant to sing this song. Huh? Just listen and tell me it wasn't.
Was being eight years old a factor? In Angelina's case, no. How can that be? Answer: Something very special is going on here. Use your wildest imagination and perhaps you are right. How can an eight year old girl touch "millions" of people's hearts and souls? The most important thing to consider is that Angelina loves to sing and wants you to enjoy her singing and she hopes that she will bring love into your heart.
Love her and your great commentary, thanks..😊
ANGELINA JORDAN IT IS “MASTERPIECE” UNIQUE GOLD, VOICES
Excellent reaction! Yes, Angelina deserves the cake and the fairy on top. I keep a record of those reacting to Angelina and note that your first essay into the world of the most talented and versatile singer in the world was on 10 Aug 2020. Soi just over six months.
A little of advice. Be like me and give up trying to understand how Angelina can be so talented and have a musical intelligence far beyond her years. Initially, you repeat the phrase "Because it's Angelina" and after a few times saying that you will realise that one word will suffice. From then on you just say "Angelina" and that covers everything. Believe me, it works :-)
👩🏻🎤🎵🌎⭐️🇳🇴❤️ What a great video Nate. I love being able to listen to all the iconic versions of classic songs alongside Angelina's rendition. I have yet to lose my sense of utter astonishment at how incredible this young lady sounds. One of my favorite lines from Angelina is when she sings, "Skies above can't be stormy" at 15:32. It kills me every time! Don't forget to include the Rod Stewart version on your CD.
She is phenomenally perfect 😍
Thanks, Nate! This was great! What you said! Angelina makes me want to listen again (and again). Maybe Dinah again. The others? Not so much.
Edit: I checked out the Amy Winehouse version that William Johnson linked in the comments. I will listen to that one again as well.
So glad to see others enjoying the comparisons...
Me too. I can listen to her all night sometimes when I need some inspiration.
I did this comparison my self awhile back, I think she's doing Dinah Washingtons version, they're almost identical, except Angie's feels rounder, softer, warmer, better. I often listen to this version, then her version with the opening flowers video, which I think is even better, if that's possible. I'm way good with both and often listen to them one after the other. With Angie I feel like I'm listening to Goodness personified.
Wow - "Goodness personified." That's excellent. Thanks!
She’s doing The Queen Of the blues version for sure .., 😊
Nate, thank you for this presentation of the legends followed by Angelina. This 8 yo child enlightened me why my parents were so in love with the music of the legends of the olden days.
Great comparison. While Angelina's stellar vocal capability to deliver such a jazz classic on par with the iconic singers you highlighted is amazing enough it bears mentioning that in this venue she is on a tiny stage in a sea of listeners a dozen meters or more from her backup singers and a dozen more (at least) from the band..talk about being on an island. Yet the 8yo Angelina is utterly unfazed by this, is completely at ease, closes her eyes most of the time, sways back and forth and takes us all on a journey to her special singing place. Wow!
Stunning artistry of the one and only AJ
The thing that separates is her timing. Would I say her voice at this age is "better" than Dinah's? I wouldn't say so. But as you said her phrasing was exemplary. She rivals Frank in that regard. Pretty awesome toolkit: voice rivalling Dinah, timing on par with Frank. And she has tools besides.
Pretty impressive for anyone under 30 much less 8.
I agree with you. Another thing she seems to do is put varied colors into her phrasing, even within one word at times. I don't hear this kind of subtle and interesting variation in other singers. Those variations seem to hit just the right emotional chords that draw the listener in even deeper.
just subscribe to your channel for more Angelina Jordan reaction, thank you Nate for your wonderful reaction. Smile.
Thanks! It's so cool to see people subscribing. I'm not monetized, just love to see that my words and heart are meaningful to others.
For the first time I closed my eyes through her entire performance. I was convinced that behind the curtain was a full grown woman pounding down shots of Stolie. Although Angelina was 8, opening my eyes left me thinking a pretty little girl just mimed a great jazz singer. It is still very difficult for me to understand just how she works so effortlessly and mood perfect when so many have been unable to even get the soulful aspects of jazz & Blues singing. Angelina is now 15 and has become recognized as not only a great singer but a unique stylist of the 21st century.
I notice there is a rare few doing such comparisons that really highlight Angelina's gift as among the best of all time!.
The nuances and clear emotion she displays in this performance,as well as her incredibly beautiful tone,surpasses all versions I have heard.
To think she has hardly begun!.
I almost stopped watching when you said you had already seen her do this.
I am glad I waited because this kind of treatment is wonderfully profound in showing how unique and rare this Diamond of a girl really is.
I am a 1971 model who values great music and singers of all genre's and am still stunned how quickly and easily she has become -hands down- my number one all-time pick for the greatest artist I have ever heard!.
She has everything in spades!.
Imagine what this girl will do in her lifetime!.
This world will never be the same again!.Wow! Just wow!.
This way of exploring her talent is a real stand-out approach and very satisfying for me and many others I am sure!.
As a genuine fan from Oz who can't get enough of this gem-
Thanks mate!.
Zebedee.
Thanks mate from Oz!.
Big smiles...
