Welcome back! We missed you. I find Angelina's key (3 semi-tones lower) to be warmer and more relatable, but is definitely a matter of personal preference. We all love her 🤩👣🔥🧡🙌❣️
Welcome back, and congrats on your growing Family. Angelina is simply amazing. There is a very young singer by the name of Emma Kok. She is 15, and she sang with Andre Rieu singing “Voila”. She killed it, and Andre is bring her for his summer tour. You will love it. Best wishes
Welcome back. We will not crucify you for a 9.8 rating. However, don't forget this is a 16-year-old taking on one of the best of all time in her prime of life. Peace and Love.
There is something in the tone of Angelinas voice that makes this more pleasent to listen to than any other version I have heard. A very subjective view.. LOL 😊 Nice to see you back..😊😊
Total talent......end of story. Whitney will always be one of a kind. And guess what? So will Angelina......she pretty much is already. Thanks for the reaction of this classic by AJ. Keep em comin'. Steve in Texas.....and Yes I have been an AJ angel for at least 6 yrs.....I lose track. The time just flies by.....doesn't it?
Missed you ❤️ Angelinas EP is awesome ❤️ Her own songs and i love them ❤️ Good in Goodbyes and Diamond are my favorites and they help me heal ❤️ Wish you an amazing day 👍
When you compare any of her covers to originals, I always think Angelina is a good 20yrs younger than most every artist she coveres and still blowes you away! Her voice puts more emotion into the songs. She is at such an early age, is right up there with them!
Welcome back Maunalee and thanks for the wonderful reaction! Please also look at his latest version of Unchained Melody which she sang last December at the Peace Noble Price ceremony in Oslo, it's a fantastic interpretation of incredible taste and has a full orchestra to accompany her.💛🧡❤
@musicwithmaunalee Yeah her latest rendition of Unchained Melody at Oslo is truly magical- angelic even. She shows us even greater range and confidence and emotional investment- how’s that possible?
@@musicwithmaunalee Nice yo see you again, have been looking for you :-). Please, before reacting to AJs " unchained malody", read about who got the Nobel peace prize and why. And also about the song. Then you also understand why Angelina performed like no one else. And because you (?) and A have family from Iran this might be a special performance for you..
Welcome back Maunalee. Been a while. I have always loved your reactions and your brutal honesty is to be admired. I didn't always agree with you but I always appreciated and respected your honest reactions, Regardless. That just adds validity to your thoughts on what you do like. Looking forward to seeing more from you. Great reaction 🔥🔥🔥♥👣
Nice to see you back! Good reaction. Yes, you used to give points. You reacted to her sing this song at 13 and had a few comments about pacing. And you got down on her singing MJ's "I'll Be There" at a benefit when she was sick. You gave it a 4--ouch! (Ah, yes, I remember it well). The angels roared...lol. I like what you do. I'm looking forward to more AJ reactions. There are many to do. Good luck with the plants!
I have watched dozens if not hundreds of reactors and you are still the only one that I watch regardless of who you are reacting to. You have introduced me to some artists who I would not otherwise have found.
So great to see your pretty brown eyes here again. I appreciate your comeback being with Angelina. I remember watching you reacting to her back around Thanksgiving in 2019. Yes, you’ve missed a couple of AJ’s videos. Her latest was on 12/12/23 at the Nobel Peace Prize singing Unchained Melody. There are about 125 others you have yet to watch. You had twin on top of you first daughter and son? Congratulations! Sorry you were sick, been there, done that too. All the best from Alaska
Lovely to have you back, you were one of the first reactors with Angelina that I followed, boy you have missed so many gems. I would jump straight to the latest one " Unchained Melody " live for the Nobel Peace Prize, it truly is beyond a 10/10 , one of the best live performances ever ( the 50 piece orchestra do add a little :) ) Look forward to more soon and huge congratulations.

Welcome back. Angelina has been busy this past year. She put of a 6 song EP or original music, a christmas EP, performed in Portsmouth New Hampshire and just lately performed at the Nobel Peace Prize where she did Unchained Melody, that is something you need to react too, if unbelievable.
I saw AJ first do this and she worked hard to do it justice, but she did do it. Just now she worked less and I heard no negatives what so ever, magnificent!
She did it LIVE in Norway, for TV , and due to a potential (non) sound recording issue, they had her sing it again, a minute later... i saw her live in New Hampshire do it at end of a 2 hr cincert. NOW, I HAVE YET TO SEE WHITNEY DO NEAR THIS WELL, IN a one-take, original pace performance, like this... no long(rest) pauses... Whitney never did !!
Great to have you back Maunalee, missed you. I agree with Claudio Marcucci that Angelina's performance at the Nobel Peace Prize Tribute is a must.

Wow ! I have missed your Reactions to Angelina so Much, OMG you have have so much Amazing Material from Angelina to catch up on, i cant wait for more, you Really should React next, to her cover of: Suspicious Minds By Elvis, its a Masterpiece, it was recorded within a couple weeks of this Witney cover, glad your back, Missed you 😊
Great, thanks! I am rather tired of this song, but it was great to hear her do it again at 16/17 after doing it at 12/13... It really shows how she's grown. I mean come on! Whitney was 29 when she did this song. Angelina is a blessing to our ears.
Cheers from Australia 🦘🇦🇺, You looked really apprehensive, could she would she ? I hope you were pleased with this performance, I was. Welcome back, for me you nailed this reaction. I look forward to more as and when you can. All in all good job.
Great honest reaction ! I appreciate your kind of thoughts about Whitney and Angelina and the comparison, which is only natural. You have to realize that Angelina pays homage to Whitney Houston every time she sings because this is one of her most favorite singers and most influential in her life since she was a baby. In fact, there's a recording of Angelina at one and a half years old singing a Whitney Houston song, so that should tell it all. I think one of the more important things to remember. Angelina made the song her own in her own tone and her own key which is a little bit different than the original but Angelina did great justice to this wonderful song and it's one of her finest performances. I feel even though it was in a studio. I think Angelina's live version when she was in Norway. The same year in 2022 was just as fabulous and even better because it was live. I think importantly we should realize Angela is on the way up. She was only 16 years old at the time of this recording and you must remember Whitney was 29 years old. Whenever she recorded that song age difference means a little bit but in Angelina's case. she was always an old soul with a mature voice. I really liked how you approached your honest reaction and summation of the whole song. It is so much appreciated to have you back in the RUclips community. I wish you nothing but success this year and even more so with the birth of your twins coming on. Have yourself a fabulous year my friend. Keep posting as always. Sending you much thanks and love from Canada 👍🇨🇦🇨🇦❤️❤️❤️
Whitney Houston is an artist I have listened to a lot, especially during the beginning of her career in the 80s. I have many of her records, but this particular song has never been one of my favorites. I haven't disliked it but it hasn't really meant anything to me at all. I wasn't too impressed with Angelina's first attempt with this song either, but for some reason this version became an instant favorite of mine. I can't explain why but I feel every word and get emotional in a way I've never experienced with any other version of this song by any artist. There's just something about Angelina's voice and way of singing that often suits me perfectly.
Welcome back! Thanks for the reaction. I think there are at least a couple of covers and a bunch of originals worth your time. "Suspicious Minds" (Elvis cover) and "Unchained Melody" (Righteous Brothers cover) at the Nobel Peace Prize ceremony are both good and her entire EP Old Enough doesn't have a bad track on it.
Great to see you back here, Maunalee. I would love to see your reaction to Angelina's "Suspicious Minds" from a couple years ago. And, for you to explore a "new" and truly unique performer - Ren. Start with "Hi Ren", i assure you that you've never heard or seen anything like it. Go into it cold, don't research him until afterwards.
She sang this in a lower key than Whitney, more suited to her natural vocal range at this age. But she also sang it when she was 13, and then it was in the same key as Whitney, I believe. You may think it's not worth watching, but you will be surprised. Angelina Jordan - I Have Nothing (Whitney Houston Tribute) ruclips.net/video/eTcvvO6B3Io/видео.html
Welcome back...sorry to hear about your suffering, but you will survive! The distinguishing characteristic in Angelina's rendition is the lower range that matches her range, and...most importantly, her performance has elements of jazz and blues. I am very partial to jazz...and blues.
Welcome back Maunalee. We've missed you a lot. You definitely have a lot of catching up to do with Angelina. She released a new EP last year called "Old Enough". the songs on it are Love don't let me go Now I'm a fool Fire and Rain All My fault Good in Goodbyes Diamond She also performed a magnificent rendition of "Unchained Melody" at the 2023 Nobel Peace Prize ceremony accompanied by the Kork orchestra from Norway. It was an absolutely stellar performance. I look forward to you catching up with some of these great songs.
Angelina Jordan is phenomenal and I am in love with her voice/style. You need to check out her rendition of "I'm Still Holding Out for You." It is mindblowing. Enjoy your reactions. Keep 'em coming!
I don't usually believe in coincidences but I ran across another reactor I hadn't heard from in a long time.them I thought about you .I pulled up your playlist and didn't see anything less than a year old. Now the next day I see your back. Cool ! In catching up with Angelina you will find a number of 10 s..
Wow ! The first artist you react to with your return is Angelina ? You just earned a sub for that ! Welcome back and i look forward to yelling at you for anything less than a 10 ..... kidding ! Go Angelina !
Good to have you back and congratulations on the fantastic news (I am the uncle of twins, and my sister was broken for some years since they took turns waking up through the night). The other good news is that it is a decade until the pipes of AJ mature. Regarding AJ covers, she usually (not always) is really good at keeping the "intention" of the original intact. Doing Billie Jean, she is not really keeping the style or sound, but I think MJ would have approved regarding the intention (or skeleton?) being intact And yes, I think you gave points? Were you not fumbling around with that 8-ball? Or was that a prediction thing you had going? Give my best to your man in green as you settle in and prepare for a substantial increase in family members, and also to your awesome daughter I am sure is rocketing her way into becoming this awesome young lady (I am totally thrown off every time I see "my" twins. I have only seen them online since they started school last autumn: They are suddenly these street-wise bad-asses 🙂
Hi Happy to see you again 😊 You will have a mountain of work with all Angelina's videos or songs you missed! Two EP! Look to "Suspicious minds", crazy!
Welcome back!!! She did this as she always does; in her own style. Check out the Easy on Me cover!!! It’s SO AWESOME!! As good or better than the original!!!!!🙏❤️ PS stay healthy for those twins!
And I'm so glad you released this video. I absolutely love Angelina. And you too. Get back into it. I'm not just saying this, I've watched a lot of you. You do understand music, and how to critique it. I have others I follow sometimes, but I did miss you.
I was a Whitney fan from the beginning of her career to her tragic end. Whitney was great, but Angelina at 17 is far better than Whitney ever was at making you feel each word, and phrase. AJ changes every cover to make it hers and far, far better than the original. AJ is the greatest STORYTELLING ARTEST I have ever experienced in my 76 years.
As a hard core Angelina fan, I think your score was fair. AJ was 16 here. I wonder what she will sound like at 30. I think her range is still growing. Glad you are back. And congratulations on your twins.
As for as this rendition of this song, it is perfect for Angelina. If Angelina sang this song originally without anyone else ever doing it, it would be considered a masterpiece the same way it is considered now when Whitney did it. At this point in Angelina's young career at only 18 years old, she is on the level of all the ladies that you named. Because she is the absolute vocal virtuoso that she is, she's going to go higher, and further than many of the rest. As she has, and is developing, she will be the most rounded, and the most versatile of any singer in the last century. And as genres go, they say that it is hard to be great at everything, but Angelina will be the closest one to being able to do so. Because of your no nonsense and strictly being truthful with your opinion, I love your reactions. I know I don't need to say this, but keep it up girl.
Considering you're comparing a teenager to a superstar in her prime, 9.8 is pretty impressive. Also considering belting out lyrics is not something Angelina often does and that her true skills lie elsewhere, I was very impressed by her here.
One more thing to add. Whitney Houston was 29 years old when she recorded this song and a clearly 10/10 for that. Angelina Jordan was 16 years old when she recorded this cover……..😮❤
WELCOME BACK Ms. Maunalee... To be honest, I wasn't a real big fan of this one from her either..... with that said, there are MANY more you have missed from her that really stand out. I know you like Elvis, so I would highly recommend her version of "Suspicious Minds". It's a damned good one and you'll love all of the Priscilla and Elvis Easter eggs throughout. When I first saw it, it made me think of you, so I finally get to recommend it. Enjoy, my friend and congrats on the twins.
Good to see you again and congratulations! 🌹 One of my least favorites from Angelina. Alltough I prefer this to Whitney's version, because its 3 semitones lower, and the yelling parts hurt my ears less 😁 Dont get me wrong, its crazy impressive by both of them to sing a song like this. Plants - I eventually went all cactus, simply because it takes longer to kill them that other plants. Take care and see you in the next one 💖

Welcome back! Angelina is always respectful to the original artist! But you have a lot of Angelina's originals to go through with her releases in 2023! It won't be long before other singers try to do covers of Angelina!
Angelina is such a gifted artist. She sang this song very well, probably better than most that have done this cover. Angelina did it justice as you said. 9.8 is a great rating plus it came with goosebumps and that is as genuine as it gets. Can't wait to hear more. There is a country artist named Drake Mulligan that I would love for you to listen to in the future.
Missed you Maunalee, I really liked what you said about respecting the original song version... even though Angelina can really mess around with a song...she still gives due honor and respect . That was a great great point and compliment for our wee Angie. 'If' you haven't seen Angelina reinterpret California Dreaming by the Mamas and Papas you must! This was for me the song where Angelina's- true-genius- for interpretation smacked me right in the face. Nasa was kicking around the idea of using 'spider' plants for air purification... apparently they're the best for it.
You are gonna L O V E what Angelina has become. 💛🫶💛 It sounds like you’re on a whole new journey (in more ways than one) and so many of us are going to enjoy coming along for the ride. Your examples of what earns a TEN are spot-on. The Cranberries?… NO kidding! ❤️ I have a feeling that you may be surprised at one or two Adele songs that are *surpassed* by Angelina Jordan! 😳 C’mon… buckle up. Let’s get going! [Welcome back Maunalee 🫶🖤👣]
Maunalee, good to see you again! We continue to honor our girl who just turned 18 years old. I won't criticize the 9.8, after all today is a day of celebration: Maunalee is back!!
Cieszę się że Pani wróciła. Jest wiele piosenek do zrecenzowania. Angelina ma wiele nowych nagrań kowerów, ale i własnych piosenek, które nagrała pod Pani nieobecność. Pozdrawiam z Polski.
Great to have you back! Thank you for choosing to begin with Angelina Jordan. I appreciate your wanting to be your genuine and authentic self in every reaction - I truly appreciate that. However, as an educator, I find your “grades/scores” give the appearance of an objective measurement. In reality, you are measuring, imho, your own “subjective” feelings/opinions”. I find that to take away from your genuineness. Yet, I think it gives the excitement, maybe, of a game show, at the expense of brave 16 year old singers. Subjective evaluations do not convert to objective numbering. Your considered comments are alone truly representative of your level of appreciation of the artist’s performance.
I think its interesting to see AJ redoing songs she has coverd in the past that not all reactors has given a topscore. The newest example is unchained melody. A bit rear given she is not afraid to show us her flaws
Angelina Jordan 18 years Recognized by world-class musicians and composers among them; Alan Walker, Jimmy Z Zavala, Diane Warren,Jon levine, RED ONE, Laydy Gaga, Dana Farber, Rachel platten, Maize, Shelly Berg, Rob Christie, Daivid Foster, Gene Simmons , Brian May y Roger Taylor , Quincy Jones, Norah Jones, Mark Ronson, Jonathan Moffet, Nico Cartosio, etc...as the greatest vocalist of all time.

Beautiful reaction, apart from Unchained Melody, personal opinion, absolutely unmissable is the EP with 6 wonderful originals, thanks Maunalee, good life and music from Italy..Massimo🤩
This was recorded the same day after she sang Elvis," "Suspicious Minds!" Rob Christie, head of Studio Productions for Republic, accompanied Angelina on the piano on that cover.

Welcome back! We missed you. I find Angelina's key (3 semi-tones lower) to be warmer and more relatable, but is definitely a matter of personal preference. We all love her 🤩👣🔥🧡🙌❣️
Thanks a lot for the reaction to our angel Angelina..she’s simply the best..👏👍
Welcome back, and congrats on your growing Family. Angelina is simply amazing. There is a very young singer by the name of Emma Kok. She is 15, and she sang with Andre Rieu singing “Voila”. She killed it, and Andre is bring her for his summer tour. You will love it. Best wishes
I did not realize how much I missed seeing those goose bumps on your arm. Welcome back!!
Holy shit, just listened to the live version with Whitney.. This is just as good, but with the Angelina touch .
Welcome back. We will not crucify you for a 9.8 rating. However, don't forget this is a 16-year-old taking on one of the best of all time in her prime of life. Peace and Love.
Oh I know!!! Gave me chills!!!
Thank you for reminding the reactor of the young age of the prodigy dazzling us in this performance ❤️!
A vocal marathon. Beautiful. Thanks!
There is something in the tone of Angelinas voice that makes this more pleasent to listen to than any other version I have heard. A very subjective view.. LOL 😊

Hi it is great to have you back, you have been missed. Another great reaction as usual. Very best wishes to you and your family. Take care.

Oh I will!!! That sounds fantastic!!! :)
@@musicwithmaunalee Yes, I really think it's worth it. 😅😍
I agree Maunalee the 8unchained melody is off the chart also she has 6 song LP out I know you will like because they are her originals.

Hello what a lovely surprise to turn laptop on and see you, love your honesty on reactions, Angelina was asking where you were lol

Glad to see you back! First one to say that! Hang in there with the twins.
Thank you!!! 🤗
Great to see you back! Looking forward to you going thru all that you've missed from Angelina! Great reaction/analysis!
Congratulations on your new additions! Welcome back, I have missed you!
I saw AJ first do this and she worked hard to do it justice, but she did do it. Just now she worked less and I heard no negatives what so ever, magnificent!
Good to see you back, always enjoyed your reactions!!!
She did it LIVE in Norway, for TV , and due to a potential (non) sound recording issue, they had her sing it again, a minute later... i saw her live in New Hampshire do it at end of a 2 hr cincert.
NOW, I HAVE YET TO SEE WHITNEY DO NEAR THIS WELL, IN a one-take, original pace performance, like this... no long(rest) pauses...
Whitney never did !!
WOW you are back! Awesome!
Wow, talk about a blast from the past, welcome back Maunalee and congrats on the twins!

Wow ! I have missed your Reactions to Angelina so Much, OMG you have have so much Amazing Material from Angelina to catch up on, i cant wait for more, you Really should React next, to her cover of:
Suspicious Minds
By Elvis, its a Masterpiece, it was recorded within a couple weeks of this Witney cover, glad your back, Missed you 😊
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful!!
Great Reaction I missed you 👍🙏👣
Great, thanks! I am rather tired of this song, but it was great to hear her do it again at 16/17 after doing it at 12/13... It really shows how she's grown. I mean come on! Whitney was 29 when she did this song. Angelina is a blessing to our ears.
100 % you are right.
Cheers from Australia 🦘🇦🇺, You looked really apprehensive, could she would she ? I hope you were pleased with this performance, I was. Welcome back, for me you nailed this reaction. I look forward to more as and when you can. All in all good job.
Great honest reaction ! I appreciate your kind of thoughts about Whitney and Angelina and the comparison, which is only natural. You have to realize that Angelina pays homage to Whitney Houston every time she sings because this is one of her most favorite singers and most influential in her life since she was a baby. In fact, there's a recording of Angelina at one and a half years old singing a Whitney Houston song, so that should tell it all. I think one of the more important things to remember. Angelina made the song her own in her own tone and her own key which is a little bit different than the original but Angelina did great justice to this wonderful song and it's one of her finest performances. I feel even though it was in a studio. I think Angelina's live version when she was in Norway. The same year in 2022 was just as fabulous and even better because it was live. I think importantly we should realize Angela is on the way up. She was only 16 years old at the time of this recording and you must remember Whitney was 29 years old. Whenever she recorded that song age difference means a little bit but in Angelina's case. she was always an old soul with a mature voice. I really liked how you approached your honest reaction and summation of the whole song. It is so much appreciated to have you back in the RUclips community. I wish you nothing but success this year and even more so with the birth of your twins coming on. Have yourself a fabulous year my friend. Keep posting as always. Sending you much thanks and love from Canada 👍🇨🇦🇨🇦❤️❤️❤️
Whitney Houston is an artist I have listened to a lot, especially during the beginning of her career in the 80s. I have many of her records, but this particular song has never been one of my favorites. I haven't disliked it but it hasn't really meant anything to me at all. I wasn't too impressed with Angelina's first attempt with this song either, but for some reason this version became an instant favorite of mine. I can't explain why but I feel every word and get emotional in a way I've never experienced with any other version of this song by any artist. There's just something about Angelina's voice and way of singing that often suits me perfectly.
Welcome back! Thanks for the reaction.
I think there are at least a couple of covers and a bunch of originals worth your time. "Suspicious Minds" (Elvis cover) and "Unchained Melody" (Righteous Brothers cover) at the Nobel Peace Prize ceremony are both good and her entire EP Old Enough doesn't have a bad track on it.
… Phänomenal! ✨💎✨ Thank you
Iam a die hard Angelina fan and iam glad to see you back.
Great to see you back here, Maunalee. I would love to see your reaction to Angelina's "Suspicious Minds" from a couple years ago. And, for you to explore a "new" and truly unique performer - Ren. Start with "Hi Ren", i assure you that you've never heard or seen anything like it. Go into it cold, don't research him until afterwards.
So happy I found you again. Love your expressions.
She sang this in a lower key than Whitney, more suited to her natural vocal range at this age. But she also sang it when she was 13, and then it was in the same key as Whitney, I believe. You may think it's not worth watching, but you will be surprised.

Welcome back...sorry to hear about your suffering, but you will survive! The distinguishing characteristic in Angelina's rendition is the lower range that matches her range, and...most importantly, her performance has elements of jazz and blues. I am very partial to jazz...and blues.
The ending was amazingly beautiful ❤️
Well, you're really back, for better or for worse :D
Love seeing you back reacting to AJ. You have been missed :)
The dress is Ice Blue and she's 16yo here... She was 18yo on 10th Jan. 4 days ago. and amazingly still growing into her Adult Voice.!!
Welcome back Maunalee. We've missed you a lot. You definitely have a lot of catching up to do with Angelina. She released a new EP last year called "Old Enough". the songs on it are
Love don't let me go
Now I'm a fool
Fire and Rain
All My fault
Good in Goodbyes

She also performed a magnificent rendition of "Unchained Melody" at the 2023 Nobel Peace Prize ceremony accompanied by the Kork orchestra from Norway. It was an absolutely stellar performance.
I look forward to you catching up with some of these great songs.
Welcome back, lovely to see you again. Angelina has done so much since we last saw you. So a lot to catch up on. 😊
Angelina Jordan is phenomenal and I am in love with her voice/style. You need to check out her rendition of "I'm Still Holding Out for You." It is mindblowing. Enjoy your reactions. Keep 'em coming!
I don't usually believe in coincidences but I ran across another reactor I hadn't heard from in a long time.them I thought about you .I pulled up your playlist and didn't see anything less than a year old. Now the next day I see your back. Cool ! In catching up with Angelina you will find a number of 10 s..
Wow ! The first artist you react to with your return is Angelina ? You just earned a sub for that ! Welcome back and i look forward to yelling at you for anything less than a 10 ..... kidding ! Go Angelina !
Good to have you back and congratulations on the fantastic news (I am the uncle of twins, and my sister was broken for some years since they took turns waking up through the night). The other good news is that it is a decade until the pipes of AJ mature.
Regarding AJ covers, she usually (not always) is really good at keeping the "intention" of the original intact. Doing Billie Jean, she is not really keeping the style or sound, but I think MJ would have approved regarding the intention (or skeleton?) being intact
And yes, I think you gave points? Were you not fumbling around with that 8-ball? Or was that a prediction thing you had going?
Give my best to your man in green as you settle in and prepare for a substantial increase in family members, and also to your awesome daughter I am sure is rocketing her way into becoming this awesome young lady (I am totally thrown off every time I see "my" twins. I have only seen them online since they started school last autumn: They are suddenly these street-wise bad-asses 🙂
Hi
Happy to see you again 😊
You will have a mountain of work with all Angelina's videos or songs you missed! Two EP!
Look to "Suspicious minds", crazy!
Welcome back!!! She did this as she always does; in her own style. Check out the Easy on Me cover!!! It’s SO AWESOME!! As good or better than the original!!!!!🙏❤️ PS stay healthy for those twins!
And I'm so glad you released this video. I absolutely love Angelina. And you too. Get back into it. I'm not just saying this, I've watched a lot of you. You do understand music, and how to critique it. I have others I follow sometimes, but I did miss you.
Great Reaction
Welcome back ! missed your reactions !!
I was a Whitney fan from the beginning of her career to her tragic end. Whitney was great, but Angelina at 17 is far better than Whitney ever was at making you feel each word, and phrase. AJ changes every cover to make it hers and far, far better than the original. AJ is the greatest STORYTELLING ARTEST I have ever experienced in my 76 years.
As a hard core Angelina fan, I think your score was fair. AJ was 16 here. I wonder what she will sound like at 30. I think her range is still growing. Glad you are back. And congratulations on your twins.
As for as this rendition of this song, it is perfect for Angelina. If Angelina sang this song originally without anyone else ever doing it, it would be considered a masterpiece the same way it is considered now when Whitney did it. At this point in Angelina's young career at only 18 years old, she is on the level of all the ladies that you named. Because she is the absolute vocal virtuoso that she is, she's going to go higher, and further than many of the rest. As she has, and is developing, she will be the most rounded, and the most versatile of any singer in the last century. And as genres go, they say that it is hard to be great at everything, but Angelina will be the closest one to being able to do so. Because of your no nonsense and strictly being truthful with your opinion, I love your reactions. I know I don't need to say this, but keep it up girl.
Considering you're comparing a teenager to a superstar in her prime, 9.8 is pretty impressive. Also considering belting out lyrics is not something Angelina often does and that her true skills lie elsewhere, I was very impressed by her here.
One more thing to add. Whitney Houston was 29 years old when she recorded this song and a clearly 10/10 for that. Angelina Jordan was 16 years old when she recorded this cover……..😮❤
WELCOME BACK Ms. Maunalee... To be honest, I wasn't a real big fan of this one from her either..... with that said, there are MANY more you have missed from her that really stand out. I know you like Elvis, so I would highly recommend her version of "Suspicious Minds". It's a damned good one and you'll love all of the Priscilla and Elvis Easter eggs throughout. When I first saw it, it made me think of you, so I finally get to recommend it. Enjoy, my friend and congrats on the twins.
Hola guapa,te echabamos de menos🤗,Angelina a crecido mucho y tiene un futuro brillante...,mira a Gabriel Henrique,es otra voz fuera de lo normal...🤗
Welcome back, and congratulations on your twins!🎉❤
Welcome back. Excellent 👍.
Welcome back and congratulations on your twin bundles of joy that’s on the way❤
Welcome back.We missed you!Despite being an absolute Angelina fan,I will accept minor critiques once in a while but not too often!
Good to see you again and congratulations! 🌹
One of my least favorites from Angelina. Alltough I prefer this to Whitney's version, because its 3 semitones lower, and the yelling parts hurt my ears less 😁 Dont get me wrong, its crazy impressive by both of them to sing a song like this.
Plants - I eventually went all cactus, simply because it takes longer to kill them that other plants.
Take care and see you in the next one 💖

Welcome back!
Angelina is always respectful to the original artist!
But you have a lot of Angelina's originals to go through with her releases in 2023!
It won't be long before other singers try to do covers of Angelina!
Angelina is such a gifted artist. She sang this song very well, probably better than most that have done this cover. Angelina did it justice as you said. 9.8 is a great rating plus it came with goosebumps and that is as genuine as it gets. Can't wait to hear more. There is a country artist named Drake Mulligan that I would love for you to listen to in the future.
WELCOME BACK MAUNALEE!!! I MISSED YOU.
Keep in mind that Whitney was twenty-nine when she recorded this song. Angelina was sixteen years old when she covered this song in this video.
Missed you Maunalee, I really liked what you said about respecting the original song version...
even though Angelina can really mess around with a song...she still gives due honor and respect . That was a great great point and compliment for our wee Angie.
'If' you haven't seen Angelina reinterpret California Dreaming by the Mamas and Papas you must! This was for me the song where Angelina's- true-genius- for interpretation smacked me right in the face.
Nasa was kicking around the idea of using 'spider' plants for air purification... apparently they're the best for it.
You are gonna L O V E what Angelina has become. 💛🫶💛 It sounds like you’re on a whole new journey (in more ways than one) and so many of us are going to enjoy coming along for the ride.
Your examples of what earns a TEN are spot-on. The Cranberries?… NO kidding! ❤️
I have a feeling that you may be surprised at one or two Adele songs that are *surpassed* by Angelina Jordan! 😳
C’mon… buckle up. Let’s get going!
[Welcome back Maunalee 🫶🖤👣]
Maunalee, good to see you again! We continue to honor our girl who just turned 18 years old. I won't criticize the 9.8, after all today is a day of celebration: Maunalee is back!!
Cieszę się że Pani wróciła. Jest wiele piosenek do zrecenzowania. Angelina ma wiele nowych nagrań kowerów, ale i własnych piosenek, które nagrała pod Pani nieobecność. Pozdrawiam z Polski.
About time your back. Lol. Just joking really nice to see you back
Ha right??? Missed y’all!!!
There's only a few I really like and your insight is always so spot on . Hope all is well for you
What a tribute to WH !!!
Great to have you back! Thank you for choosing to begin with Angelina Jordan. I appreciate your wanting to be your genuine and authentic self in every reaction - I truly appreciate that.
However, as an educator, I find your “grades/scores” give the appearance of an objective measurement. In reality, you are measuring, imho, your own “subjective” feelings/opinions”. I find that to take away from your genuineness. Yet, I think it gives the excitement, maybe, of a game show, at the expense of brave 16 year old singers. Subjective evaluations do not convert to objective numbering. Your considered comments are alone truly representative of your level of appreciation of the artist’s performance.
❤👍👏👏 - very nice having you «back on track»!
Glad to have found you again, You are my favorite reaction video
Congrats on your double bubbles! Good to see you again!
