      Hi there, love your reactions and how much you admire Angelina. I have been following her for a long time and I love her so much much. I feel like a very proud Gran. I want to suggest that you listen to song written by Angelina just before her family moved to LA. It called OSLO it is absolutely amazing. Blessings to you from a 77 year old gran from South Africa.

I am unable to travel anywhere due to my Wife's health, will likely never see her live unless she comes to SC.

    I must say I rather think she might have been spotted by Nico Cartosio by the invitation Angelina got to sing at Quinsy Jones 85 birthday consert in London in 2018. Nico recorded his album in London (Abbey Road studios) as Angelina gave her "Fly Me To The Moon" performance, honoring Quincy at the "O2 - Arena", late in summer that year. Nico`s album was released in April 2019, so AGT had nothing to do with this great collaboration. Still Angelina WAS in LA when she recorded this song, and the musical track was sendt to her. I do love that Angelina had this wonderful opportunity to reveal her ability for even this kind of music, and I do wish for more of this from her, even though I might not expect that for a few years still. As Angelina turns 25 - 30 + I guess she might alternate between genres like a kid plays her/his different toys. I surely do hope that will be the case.The main thing to me though, will be that her voice will be part of the world music enjoyment. I can barely imagine a day without enjoying her amazing voice and music.

    Classical is on one end of the music spectrum and with this magnificent performance AJ demonstrates her ability. Can she thrive on the opposite end of the music spectrum, say EDM? Hell yah. Like Song for A, she was featured in an EDM single, Above the Water. It's no cover, it's her original vocal. That girl is one versatile powerhouse.

  • @paulwagner9303
    @paulwagner9303 10 месяцев назад +39

    This song is widely ignored by reactors, which is quite a pity. Maybe it's because you can't see it's a 13yo girl singing. It was Nico’s intention to have a music video produced with Angelina, but due to unknown circumstances it hasn't become reality.
    So Yozhik v Tumane, a very talented video artist and also a Angelina fan made this lyric video. It quickly became the standard YT video for this song. So if you're right in your foreshadowing he will be famous too because of this in the far future. 😉
    IIRC Nico composed this track with Angelina's voice in mind, he did not search for an artist after finishing composing. The AGT connection is a nice idea, but doesn't fit the timeline - AGT The champions was prerecorded in late 2019 and aired in 2020, when Angelina was 14yo already.
    Neverteless, Nico deserves some credit too, it's a beautifull tune, and it should be because it's meant a opposite to the eight instrumental tracks before on his album. Here’s his description on the song:
    “'Song for A' is the only song that I wrote for the album 'Melting'. And this song is the main mystery of it. It is performed by Angelina Jordan, a very young and very talented singer.
    I needed a bright final for my instrumental album. After the series of cold hells and “Melting” itself I longed for a song of a liberated soul, a soul that was set free from suffering. So, I remembered a beautiful poem by Robert Burns and wrote this song especially for Angelina. And she gave a sensual performance.
    We recorded the instrumental part on Abbey Road. Angelina recorded vocals later in Los Angeles.
    Angelina is awesome and enigmatic."
    To put this song into a genre isn’t easy. When asked, Alan Papier ranked it into Broadway musical, but agreed later it also could be Cinematic for it has both a Hollywood feel to it and a Classical feel to it.
    But whatever you decide where to put it into - the fact the voice that makes it a masterpiece belongs to an teenage jazz artist is unbelivable. IMHO it's only possible because of her long time expirience in music and a mind that's much older as her body is - Angelina politely answered on Skavlan's talkshow, when asked if she feels like an 12yo: "I feel like an 12yo only when I look on my passport". This explains a lot, I believe.

      This was my first time listening to it and it evoked memories of some of the old 1940's era black and white Hollywood musicals. Racking my memory trying to recall names of actors...Judy Garland comes to mind. That's what this made me think of. Indeed, a beautiful song.

      But even then, the surprise only comes when you SEE Angelina in the recording booth - 11 years old and acting as a crooner from a classic movie era long ago (which she rarely does, unfortunately).

  • @RobertDeMartin
    @RobertDeMartin 10 месяцев назад +56

    Lately I've been coining a phrase, she is 'beyond the beyond'. Of course she is beyond description as an artist and when you consider her age and what she has already accomplished you can see why I feel that way. Oh, we're not done yet. When we consider 'who she is' as a wonderful, humble, kind hearted, caring and loving human being with so much love in her heart, how do we cover that? To me she is truly a Messenger of Love and I believe she will touch everyone who listens to her sing for them. Eventually she will touch everyone with her love because everyone in the world will know who Angelina Jordan is.
    Song For A is a Masterpiece performance and not only is her articulation unlike anything we've ever heard from her before, but every note can stand on it's own and each line in the story of the song she sings so differently she must have consulted Robert Burns somehow to see how he really felt when he wrote the poem.
    Nico Cartosio, Quincy Jones and David Foster knew from the moment they heard her she is destined to be one of the greats. When Republic Records heard her they wanted to sign her up. The big boss was told it would be difficult because her manager has been telling people interested in signing her that they would have to adhere to her families demands concerning decisions about her career (her education, time to create new music, tour dates, time off between gigs, etc.,) The Republic Records representative who went to meet with Angelina's manager (her uncle) was told, "Don't come back unless you do what's necessary to sign her." He did.
    But, let's remember, Angelina works very hard at her trade. She self motivates herself and what we are witnessing is not magic nor a miracle of sorts. Why we feel the way we do when we listen to her sing, or see her, or think about her is the time each one of us can interpret what's going on in our own way. We may all have different explanations but there is certainly one thing all of us have in common. We carry her love in our heart and it will never leave us.

    If Angelina is presented with a song, regardless of the genre of music, this one being more 'classical" since Nico created an instrumental classical album, and invited Angelina to record these vocals, Here is a quote from Nico Cartosio regarding this song and Angelina Boudy: : "Song For A" from Nico Cartosio's album "Melting".
    "Song for A is the only song on the album. It is performed by Angelina Jordan, a very young and very talented singer. I needed a bright final for my instrumental album. After the series of cold hells and Melting itself I longed for a song of a liberated soul, a soul that was set free from suffering. So, I remembered a beautiful poem by Robert Burns and wrote this song especially for Angelina. And she gave a sensual performance" and she would be around 13 here (released in 2019) though she likely recorded it at age 12 I am pretty sure. Thanks for another wonderful Monday with Angelina...hoping that some of this info further enlightens you to the music genius of this young lady. 🥰🥰 So so so glad you did this one....gets very little views and plays and it is a masterpiece!!!

This is not an easy song to do with any singer. Nico Cartosio obviously saw and heard something in her that made him think she would be perfect for this.

    I just wanted to thank you for your heartfelt reaction! Although Angelina has been featured on a song on the soundtrack of a Motion Picture, it was a cover of a pop song. I would much rather hear Angelina be used in something much more epic. I'm thinking of a Lawrence of Arabia, or a Doctor Zhivago, or even, as soooo many have suggested, a James Bond film. I think she could win an Academy Award for a truly great Motion Picture theme, or original song, where her voice is allowed to not only compliment the film, but even to transcend it. Many blessings to you and yours from Wisconsin!

      "Melting" is a dark themed album concerning addiction, premature death and murder all because some people imprison themselves with greed, avarice, revenge, and lack of love, but the hope is that even the most frozen heart has a speck of heat that can be liberated. Ms. Jordan symbolizes that new freedom. Rb

    I cry every time I listen to this song. I believe this is a sample of Angelina’s clear, pure, natural voice. Exquisite! So glad you appreciated it as much as you did because I value your opinion and expertise.

    So happy someone suggest this sing for you to react!
    Not many people know this masterpiece exists. A wonderful collaboration between Nico Cartosio and her.
    Also, I really appreciated your sensibility and insightful comments about the challenges that come with singing classical modern compositions which Angelina excelled at. I wish more people have the chance to listen to it.
    Absolutely agree about your comments on Lara Fabian who, IMO, is one of the best vocalists and interpreter on earth.
    Of course she would demolish many established artists as I'm sure Angelina is doing now at 17 years of age... imagine her in 5 more years!!!

    That is what a reaction should be like, you expressed so much of the awe that we all feel when we listen to this.
    I don't know how much communication there was between Angelina and Nico. The instrumentals were recorded in Abbey Road Studios in London, the vocal in LA. The poem includes terms from a old Scottish dialect, not easy to work with. The tracks on the album start in the cold hells, gradually rising, until this final track - here comes the enlightening. Nico stated that he needed a special voice that could portray this. He thought of Angelina, it must have been some time before the AGT Champions (recorded September 2019, broadcast January 2020).
    Angelina would have been the one to decide to do this, her team sort out all the logistics and so on, but she is very much in charge of the music she chooses to do.

    Angelina was in LA when she recorded the lyrics for this. Nico laid so down the track and sent it to her. She did an unbelievable performance. What an honor for, yes 13 year old Angelina. Nico actually converted the poem specifically for Angelina. Although she did not write it, it’s not a cover. She really can sing anything in any style she chooses. Great reaction.

    Cartosio found Angelina before AGT.. (the album was released in April 2019. Angelina must have been no older than 12 at time of recording). As I understand it he needed a childs voice to "lift the spirit" at the end of a rather sombre instrumental classical work and found Angelina "through the yellow pages" or someone pointed her out to him. 🙂.

    Hi AMR 👋. What a wonderful react to this masterpiece. Nico recorded his part in Dec of 2019 and Angelina while on Christmas break, finished recording it at the beginning of Jan 2020. AGT-C hadn't been released yet. He had already kno2n of her before hand. This is what Nico said about the song, Back in April 2019. "Song for A" is the only song on the album. It is performed by Angelina Jordan, a very young and very talented singer. I needed a bright final for my instrumental album. After the series of cold hell's and Melting itself, I longed for a song of a liberated soul, a soul that was set free from suffering. So, I remembered a beautiful poem by Robert Burns and wrote this song especially for Angelina. And she gave a sensual performance. We recorded the instrumental part on Abbey Road. Angelina recorded vocals later in Los Angeles. Angelina is awesome & enigmatic”- Nico Cartosio. Most people think that her voice is something from another world. I would urge anyone with an appreciation for good music to give her a listen. God bless you Boudy and your family too 🙏 ✝️❤ 🙂👍.
    (Would you please react to Laura Bretan's office cover of "Adagio". She's not well known outside of her musical circle but her voice and character are amazing ❤). Lara Fabian actually sang with Laura Bretan in concert this year. The sound wasn't very good from the cel phone, kind of muffled.

    The first time I heard this song I thought it was one of the most beautiful songs I had ever heard. And Angelina sang it with all the love and feeling that she normally puts into everything she sings. But she was only 12 and the complexity of the song was way above her years but once again she did her AJ Majic and it’s a masterpiece. I only hope people will appreciate it because it sounds like a song from another time. But I appreciate it and I guess that’s all that matters. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

    I have said so many times. The point of difference between Angelina and other great singers is that they do what they do really well. Angelina can do it all. She can do it all and send it straight to your heart by passing your intellect on the way leaving your brain going 'ah what was that? How?' That's why That Singer Reacts calls her a star vocalists. A star amongst great vocalists.

IMHO she is on her way to joining the pantheon of the greatest artists of all time.

    Loved your reaction and truly appreciate that someone has finally said just how amazing this song being sung by a child really is. I think she was actually 12 when recorded. In my 81 years there have been many great female vocalists; BUT not one that, in my opinion, could have given anywhere close to the justice Angelina did with this song at even twice the age! And very few could at any age! Oh, and I am pretty sure Nico Cartosio knew of Angelina long before she was on AGT the champions!

    Thank you AMR for a beautiful reaction that she so deserves, this gets overlooked so much, give her the greatest songs and you will experience the greatest artist of all time, she elevates every song she touches in fact she is too good for most of them , and then she doesn't get the recognition for how incredible she is because she is so far ahead of comprehension, for me she is an experience like no other artist, there is a presence that she has ,an energy that is so beautiful and just simply a Heart like the sun and I feel her like no other she is what she expresses and that is Divine.💗👣

    I'd add, it's been clear since I've followed her in 2015 the world will know her when she and her family decides, not the music industry. If there's any holding back, it's her and her families wish to protect Angelina as she's still a teen girl. Heck, she still has 8 inconceivable years until her voice is fully matured, I'm fine with letting extremely rare wine age properly😊
