    A barefoot princess with a hypnotic voice.
    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. PLEASE PURCHASE Angelina’s book from her merchandise store on her official website, angelinajordanofficial 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 Frank Sinatra “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. In December 2022, Angelina performed at the Asian American Awards in Los Angeles. On 2/27/23, Angelina performed at the FIFA Awards ceremony in Paris, France, with a viewing audience in the millions. On May 5th, 2023, Angelina released her original "Love Don't Let Me Go". On July 23th she released her orginal EP “Old Enough”.
    Angelina perform Concert at the Music Hall in Portsmouth New Hampshire on Sept 22nd, 2023. It Was a great concert, who was not and could regret it, a big mistake. On 10/27/23 she released her new orginal singiel “Our Time”. In November 2023, she was presented as a debutante at Le Bal des débutantes in Paris. On 12/08/23 she released new Marry Christmas EP “Driving Home for Christmas”. On 12/10/23 she sing in Oslo at the Nobel Peace Prize Celebration - Unchained Melody tribute to 2023 Nobel Peace Prize laureate Iranian human rights activist Narges Mohammadi. She will have a concert in Las Vegas, Nevada. On the stage where Elvis sang. Westgate Resort & Casino, February 24, 2024, 7pm & 9:30pm.

    Mum Sara was determined that her 10 year old daughter will not sing the original lyrics as they were deemed unsuitable for her child, undeterred Angelina had 24 hours to change the lyrics, Angelina finally finished the lyrics on the way to the studio in the car , Angelina is a phenomenal artist she can sing any genre, that’s why her fans named Angelina the barefoot princess with a thousand different styles and voices, I’m travelling from the United Kingdom to attend Angelina’s live concert in Las Vegas on the 29th of February, cannot wait to see Angelina live again, great reaction thanks!

    Angelina has performed with this orchestra at least 3 times that I remember. Here of course, with a small ensemble; the full KORK orchestra at age 10 singing George Gershwin's "Summertime"; and then most recently she performed on December 11, 2023, with KORK at the Nobel Peace Prize Ceremony at age 17, singing "Unchained Melody" to an audience that included the 2 children of the Nobel Peace Prize recipient, Narges Mohammadi, who is imprisoned in Iran for supporting women's and human rights. This is the most beautiful rendition of "Unchained Melody" that I have ever heard.

    Thanks for the choice of the song guys, I love this rendition. In Angelina's inspiration and research, Amy has a particular place, it's in fact a bond that often comes to mind spontaneously, also due to the jazz-soul connotation of both. Angelina has sung several of Amy's songs, often having to change the lyrics, due to the words that were used in the songs, as in this case, but her versions of the songs are always extremely respectful and emotional, thanks to the passion with which she fills them of grace, with her warm and deep voice. You can't help but fall in love with her! in reality she finished writing the lyrics in the car, while they were going to the recording studio, because otherwise her mother wouldn't have let her sing.💛🧡❤

Angelina has stated that she has written about 100 songs that have yet to be released. Her songs are taken from her Journal writings. When she was 10/11 she rewrote the Lyrics to Amy Winehouse's Back to Black and Rehab to make them more age appropriate at that time.

    Nerves? Not AJ. For her very first public performance - 7 years old, on stage in front of a large audience, four judges right in front of her, nationally televised and after waiting all day backstage because she was the last performer, Angelina showed no nerves at all. She has said many times that she is never nervous when performing.

    • @Halli50

      She just enters her own world of music and in that world there is no reason to be tense, there is just - music! If you watch many of her early performances to the very end, you can actually see her returning from that world, quietly becoming an unassuming little girl again.

    Some have referred to this as a rehearsal and I will be happy to be corrected by someone who Knows but I found out this was no rehearsal but a scheduled performance with recording this performance being the purpose. KORK is the Norwegian National Orchestra known as the Norwegian Radio Orchestra & I don't believe I have heard this performed with this arrangement with these particular members in a live event. She did do a live performance of "Summertime" with the full Orchestra. Correct me if I'm wrong. I have recently learned that KORK actually contacted Angelina for the purpose of this recording plus several others. I'm guessing National Orchestra requested her because of her talent and because she was declared by Norway as a National Treasure shortly after winning Norway's Got Talent. I believe this booking was arranged for the purpose of this recording. It's on her Album as well as others for a project KORK was doing. Thus the scheduled time slot. I'm guessing the arrangement was made ahead of time and each party was working with this. Angelina was informed the night before I believe and had the night and next day before the performance to make the changes. I believe she worked on it that evening but didn't quite finish it. She visited an amusement park on the day of and before the performance. I've watched video of her in an interview at the park with a friend. It looks like they had the whole park to themselves. She finished the lyrics on the ride to the recording session. The remarkable thing is that the lyrics fit so well they had no need to change the arrangement. I believe this performance was the second take. Again I will be happy to be corrected on this if I am wrong but regardless this performance was typical Angelina Magic. Smooth Velvet Perfection! ♥👣If there is a performance and a recording of it I'd love to see & or hear it. I know she did it live a time or two but not with these members and this arrangement. ♥👣

    This orchestra is the from the Norwegian broadcasting company NRK. They have performed with Angelina several times over the years. Just recently (December 2023) she performed with them at the Nobel Peace Prize ceremony. This session was booked to just record this with her, and they did it in just two takes. You are correct, she has been doing this since she was like 6 years old. There are videos of her at her school recording studio that were recorded before she auditioned for Norway's Got Talent when she was 7 years old. There are lots of videos of when she won NGT and after. Be worth your time to check some of them out. Peace and Love.

  • @adairmartin
    @adairmartin 6 месяцев назад +1

    What you are watching is mostly the “second take” of Angelina singing this with Kirk. There is a video of Angelina sitting in the studio listening to her first take, and you can see that she wasn’t happy with it. Her timing was a bit off. The second take, well, you heard it!
    The back story is KORK had worked up the backing for Back to Black, and they wanted Angelina to sing it. The original lyrics are very “adult”, and Angelina’s mom didn’t think they were appropriate for a 10 year old girl to sing, so she told Angelina that if she wanted to sing it, she would have to change the lyrics! But, she only had 24 hours! AND, the morning of the performance, she was going to an amusement park with some of her friends to ride rollercoasters! Angelina screamed her head off on the coasters!
    This video was not a rehearsal. Creating the video WAS the performance. Believe me, all the KORK musicians knew who Angelina was! She had already been designated a “National Treasure” in Norway. KORK is a highly regarded orchestra in Norway. This arrangement only used a few of them.
    So, Angelina removing her shoes is the signal that this IS a performance, not a rehearsal.
    You should also hear her recent performance with KORK at the Nobel Peace Prize Award Ceremony where she sang “Unchained Melody”. Barefoot, of course!

She sang the song twice: there is another video of AJ listening to the first recording and making faces as she wasn't happy.... so they did it again. There are great videos of Angelina singing in the booth at the age of 6: look up "Anglina Jordan I Who Have Nothing" (not to be confused with I have nothing ) The musicians all knew very well who Angelina was and what she's capable of :)

    At first I thought she changed some of the racier lyrics but no, she rewrote the entire song. Here are the two songs side by side. (excuse the formatting)
    I have gone mad by your love, He left no time to regret
    crazy, sick and mad, Kept his dick wet
    I laugh, I cry, I love. With his same old safe bet
    When I see you with others I cry, Me and my head high
    With strangers you are high. And my tears dry
    Alone and with no one I cry. Get on without my guy
    I'm thinking of you and I cry, You went back to what you knew
    In loneliness behind this lie, So far removed
    From this some part of life. From all that we went through
    Every night you become a star, And I tread a troubled track
    and I laugh at stars. My odds are stacked
    Shame they guess it's so far. I'll go back to black
    I'm the one who speaks to the moon, We only said goodbye with words
    I didn't want to be in love, I died a hundred times
    But I fall back to, You go back to her
    I fall back in, And I go back to
    I fall back in....LOVE. I go back to us
    I love you so oh oh. I love you much
    I laugh at you. It's not enough
    I have no one but the wind. You love blow and I love puff
    I have gone away so many times, And life is like a pipe
    Just to forget about you, And I'm a tiny penny
    But I fall in love with you again. Rolling up the walls inside
    I'm the one who speaks to the moon, We only said goodbye with words
    I didn't want to be in love. I died a hundred times
    But I fall back to, You go back to her
    I fall back in. And I go back to
    I'm the one who speaks to the moon, We only said goodbye with words
    I didn't want to be in love, I died a hundred times
    But I fall back to, I fall back in, You go back to her
    I fall back in...... And I go back to
    Laugh, Laugh, Black, black
    Laugh, Laugh, Black, black
    Laugh, Laugh, Black, black
    Laugh. Black
    I still laugh at, I go back to
    I still laugh at. I go back to
    I'm the one who speaks to the moon. We only said goodbye with words
    I didn't want to be in love, I died a hundred times
    But I fall back to. You go back to her
    I fall back in, And I go back to
    I'm the one who speaks to the moon, We only said goodbye with words
    I didn't want to be in love. I died a hundred times
    But I fall back to, You go back to her
    I fall back in, LOVE. And I go back to black
