My god, this is an increadibly beautiful song and interpretation... Leaves me pretty speechless. I have the feeling that I stopped breathing for about half of the song. Love from Germany
This is her very, very best! This is where she decided to show her immortal side, her other worldly side, ascending into the Beethoven/Mozart genius level. Like it was a walk in the park. No big deal, let's not even put this one out there!!!!!! Thankfully someone did. A ten year old child should not be able to do what adult professionals can not.
Yes, Yes, Yes. But I keep feeling that same way, moved beyond moved, with every new song she sings. With every new year she lives, with every bit of endless goodness that exudes from her. A true living angel, just when this world needed her most. Angelina is our proof that God is watching over us all and that He loves us immensely. Thank you baby angel, for allowing Him to deliver such a moving, heart-warming message to the world through you. . . .
@@davidgoldstein1526 Probably whatever stopped her from releasing it back then. Time and inside information has shown that the 'inappropriate' trope is probably not correct.
She was 10 when this was recorded. Look at the text of this song, its no way suitable for a 10 yo. So happy people around her stopped that. Amazing song tho!
It's not a cover of Baby Fuzz. He and some others wrote this. It was, so I understand to anyone who wanted to perform this. Angelina recorded this demo. I just got shelved. Baby Fuzz decided to release this just a tad over 2yrs ago. Someone released this at the same time. No one knows who. It would have been a good breakout song, but she wasn't signed to any recording studio, Fuzz was. And her parents weren't going to allow that at her age. I think this had been behind the shelving of this song. It was not her property. This is an industry about $$$. I understand Fuzz eventually did hear her version & was kind enough not to have her version blocked (he liked it). Legally he could have had it removed. I've heard his version (the laugh is he did a cover of his own song), it's ok. He's got a good voice himself, but it gets overshadowed by all the extras he throws in. His voice isn't strong enough to balance the background vocals he throws in this piece.
Harri-I have listened to music for a long time. I was a DJ in college. I have not heard a singer who connects so directly to people’s emotions like her. Many singers have songs here and there that connect to emotions deeply. But the sheer volume Angelina has already produced so far is astounding. She masters an unbelievable diversity of styles and in each style she pulls the most incredible feelings out of listeners. She interprets songs in brilliant manners well beyond her years. Keep listening to her catalogue. She doesn’t need to dance or move around a lot on stage. It would only distract from her voice. The smallest hand movements and changes of expression add to her performances. She is music in its highest level of being.
Angelina is singing in English was not her first language I had to get it so perfect the phrasing in the language that spell as a foreign language is outstanding and her voice is well stellar
I don't know if you've done this, Harri .. but watch it once all the way through .. literally all the way .. listening with care to every word .. every word ..without opening eyes until there is no more sound. It is an experience you won't expect. She is insanely brilliant how Angelina truly embodied this song. Hearing it this way is an experience nobody should miss. It truly helped me understand why her mother put a stop or a hold on her singing it. .. although now that it's been out and we've all loved it it might happen that she'll get to do it again .. In a way I wonder though .. because this version is so magnificent and so beautiful and so much part of her journey that I hope it is never taken out of availability for anyone who may want to see and hear it sung by a brilliant ten year old named Angelina.
This one is not as well known as some of her songs, but it’s definitely a favorite of hard-core Angelina fans. The flexibility and maturity of her voice, and that delivery… Yes-when you said that no 10 year old has a right to sing like that, I was thinking-wait til you hear what she does with the rest of this. It’s unusual for me to like a song the first time I hear it, but this one blew me away several years ago, and it’s still right there at the top of my Angelina favorites.
Exactly!! I agree with everything you said. I would love for Angelina to do a cover of this again, now that she's older (all of 15) and see just what she does with it. It's difficult for me to pick a favorite that she does, but this, "All I Ask" and a couple others are right up at the top.
It's actually not a cover. Baby Fuzz gave the song to a few artist to see what they would do with it. This is her version and it is incredible. Great reaction. Thank you
it's not only a gift to have such a fantastic voice. the gift is that a girl like her are going puplic at the age of 7 the next gift is that she is very protected and supported by her fam. at her performence - the norway got talent auditution - back stage you can see the wake up call for her mom. but the truly gift is her grandma because she has seen her talent at a very young age. the video of her first visit in a music recording studio at the age of 6 shows the little pearl in this shell she has... i hope you can understand my bad english comment.
The soul and sass that she sings this with is absolutely amazing. The way she sings the word " crazy" just makes me crazy. No ten year old has ever sounded like this, it brings a lump to my throat.
This was a Grammy-worthy experience. Also, don’t worry, Angels will never get tired of hearing you share the experience of enjoying and appreciating Angelina. I seek out new reactions every day to relive the experience of discovering her. It was a turning point in my life that needs to be revisited constantly.
The video was pieced together by a "fan" but I love at the very end when we get a little glimpse of the baby who just blew your mind and made you cry. She's just so unbelievably talented.
You are so right. Weight for age this is still her best performance. Not only the singing but also the interpretation. She was the first to sing this song (well before BabyFuzz released it), so had nothing to inspire her. Bewildering that a ten year old can do this.
I personally think it is impossible to choose which Angelina song is best etc ... But this song is absolutely crazy good can be the best ever and it depends on Angelina's way of performing the song. And the ending of this song is absolutely insanely good.
I started following Angelina after I saw her audition for Norway's Got Talent. This particular song should go #1 in my opinion. I love her covers of classic Jazz, her originals... Oh let's face it, I love them all but this one is perfection.
As lucky as we were back n the 60's, 70's and 80's with all of the great music we had, we are just as lucky to have Angelina, Dimash, Diana, Aurora, Amira, and a few other phenomenal talents, today.
It's just one after another of some of the greatest performances? How?? Really, She already has more unbelievable performances for three lifetimes of the greatest!
I only discovered Angelina very recently,she moved me like never before,a special person/talent.only aged 10 when recorded this amazing, my no 1 so far,she is now aged 16 and her family are keeping a lid on things,there are many artists with good voices who don't make it ,it would be a disaster if Angelina also failed ,it all depends on the songs ,for me this is the type of material she should be recording I'm sure there is even better to come ,but I have to be patient, her record company and family are correct in not doing things to quickly.
This track points out for me one of the things differentiating Angelina from other singers, why she is noticeably "so good". She is extremely quick at changing pitch at full volume, almost no gap between notes. Where other average singers might need 100 microseconds to change from an A3 to a C3 at full volume perfect pitch, and well trained and practiced singers can do it in 10 microseconds, which is noticeable even for amateur listeners, Angelina can do it in 2 or 3 microseconds, and it is noticeable even to my largely untrained musical sense. One of the abilities Angelina perfected while her brain was still at the malleable rapid-development stage re how tight to run the muscles holding the vocal chords to produce a specific note.
If angelina did ever sing this again it would be completely different. Her voice has evolved since this performance and I really don't know what Angelina would do with this now.
To truly start at the beginning where it becomes apparent that this is a child destined to become the greatest vocalist of all time you should start where she enters a sound booth for the first time at her school. At six she sings four songs which were recorded. Rolling In The Deep, Hurt, Sky Fall, and most notable “I Who Have Nothing “. The latter showing the joy she gets from singing. The video taken by her greatest inspiration. Her Grandmother.
10 was a great year for Angilina, she put out a lot of awesome songs. I will survive, by Gloria Gaynor. She was also 10 when she killed this song. Check it out. Unbelievable! 🇺🇸🔥💪
Yes, her eleventh year (when she was 10) was a watershed year for her. I think it was her confidence that emerged fully. She has never been nervous performing, but was not always sure she could produce what she wanted to. Being 10 somehow changed that, and this song is a great example.
i believe it was recorded first by anjelina. when the lyrics werent appropriate for a ten year old and her parents didnt want it released then baby fuzz decided to record it and put it out there.
As you said, Angelina destroys this one (especially the bridge)!... but I think she likewise excels in the bridge of "Shield", "Million Miles", and a few others also. Part of the surprise that she nearly always brings one way or another! Makes us always want more!
This isn't the first time a demo track was made with no plan for release, then some how gets leaked, certainly doesn't harm Angelina, creates a bit of a mystery.
You can't really call this a cover of the Baby Fuzz version, since Angelina recorded this about a year before Baby Fuzz. The urban myth surrounding this song is crazy! Brandon Lowery, aka Sterling Fox, aka Baby Fuzz, was the primary writer of this song when he was attending a songwriting camp in Oslo. He tried, unsuccessfully to get someone to record it before finally decided to record it himself. At some point, while he was trying to get it recorded, someone got Angelina to record this as a demo. A lot of people seem to believe Angelina's family didn't like the lyrics, believing they referred to suicide. They really don't. And she did change the lyrics to eliminate the F-word, so she could have made other changes if they felt that was necessary. It's more likely a rights issue. Nice reaction, Harri. You really should include a link to the original video in the description.
1 - The owner of this song is the lyric writer, Brandon Lowery, also known as Sterling Fox, also known as Baby Fuzz 2 - The demo was made right after the songwriting session, Brandon Lowery met Angelina at the house of one of the song's co-writers. 3 - The demo leaked just before Brandon Lowery released the song with another arrangement himself, revealing the other co-writers' contrary opinion, hoping to release it with Angelina, and changing the lyrics on the problematic part was the right thing to do. . 4 - The last part of the song promotes suicide, in the mold of John's baptism, by drowning in a river, a really problematic lyric that does not add support from any record company or singer.
I don’t think that this song is a cover. Baby FuZZ cowrote this song in collaboration with 3 others. The song was shopped to several artists for possible recording. Angelina did a demo few days shy of her 11th birthday. For unknown reasons , the song was not released but later leaked by someone that had an access to the demo. When no artist seemed to be interested in recording it, Baby FuZZ recorded and released it not aware at the time of Angelina’s Demo. He only became aware of it when it was leaked. I think we can say that Baby FuZZ covered his own song. LOL. Baby FuZZ got lot of criticism and abuse on social platforms for the mistaken assumptions that he prevented Angelina from changing the lyrics. In an interview Baby FuZZ said that there were no discussion between him and Angelina’s team about releasing the song. He said that he supports young artists and liked Angelina’s version of the song. He threatened to block the video if he keeps receiving criticism and abuse. We are very thankful for Baby Fuzz for not blocking the video and supporting Angelina. Thank you for your reaction to the one and only Angelina Jordan.
I doubt this will be released on an album. I read a statement by Angelina that when she got a little older she found she didn't like the reference to suicide and said she didn't want to sing the song again or release it in an album.
There you go Harri :-) Thank you very much for an amazing reaction. And thanks for the shoutout ! This song is a very safe bet, as you'd have a hard time finding someone who doesn't like it, or at least the performance of it by a ten year old girl. At least with the hearing intact, you know ? Lol I almost feel a little sad that I like this so much, as jazz is her wheelhouse, and she has so many incredible performances in that genre. But truth be told, every time she takes a step outside that circle, it ends up jawdroppingly good. She's even ventured into EDM at one stage, and THAT performance, too, is something to behold. At some stage I REALLY do think you ought to chech that one out, too. In any case, here is the link for it : ruclips.net/video/y6SilwnR2Zc/видео.html Like so many comment here, the song you just reacted to is shrouded in mystery, and I have heard several claims of holding the truth over the years. All that aside, the performance stands. And it stands rock solid. Enjoy the Sunday my friend, and have a great week. Keep reacting to the future in music, I'm going nowhere. (BTW, I love how you gave the listener some more background info in this one. ) Love from Norway :-)
I had a very, very, bad day until I watched your video reaction. Thank you so very mich Harri for the amazing blessings of your reactions. You saved me today. Thank you.
Forget she young. This song I believe if it were released with AJ VOICE would make the billboard top 100 and maybe much higher , I think it's that good enjoyed your reactions as it reflects mine
Excellent reaction and in a way you can say it is an Angelina original, It was leaked before the writer of the song released his recording of it. Purely perfection on the Mastery Level of singing maybe only about 20 singers ever had existed or exists and she was 10! God Bless
And then she plays in rhe dirt at the end like 10 uear olds do. Shes Amazing
"You may hold my hand for a while... But you hold my heart forever.!!!" - Miss. Angelina Jordan Angel Fan's Family Worldwide ...
You know, Angelina is a ticking music bomb. When she is ready and old enough, the bomb will go off.
My god, this is an increadibly beautiful song and interpretation... Leaves me pretty speechless. I have the feeling that I stopped breathing for about half of the song.
Love from Germany
I get goose bumps and cry every time I hear this song! Shes a reincarnation no one 10 can sing from their soul like that!
She astounds & then she astounds more and more...
I've been watching her from the first time she won Norway got talent, she wet my eye many times,
Absolutely brilliant
It must be a old soul in a young body. She is just wow! Nice greetings from Germany.
I believe this was 'released' just as she turn 11yrs old.
This is my #1. And yes everything about this song I luv.
Performing singing perfection is what this is in anyone's book. Ten year old singing at a level that most singers will never reach in their life.
Listening to Angelina Jordan is a lifechanging experience... believe me!
That’s on my playlist outstanding
This is her very, very best! This is where she decided to show her immortal side, her other worldly side, ascending into the Beethoven/Mozart genius level. Like it was a walk in the park. No big deal, let's not even put this one out there!!!!!!
Thankfully someone did. A ten year old child should not be able to do what adult professionals can not.
She sings at Alan Walkers concert when she is also 10. She sings Sing Me to Sleep and Faded both amazing performances
She is talking about herself. Listen when she says you couldn't even face me, even if I tryed
Brandon Lowry (Baby Fuzz) wrote the song with cowriters Aksel Carlson, Ronny Janssen, and Frida Amundsen in 2016. 👣💯 *AJ* 💯👣
Right now, she's the greatest talent in the world, and only getting better.
Probably the most EPIC song/performance she's done. Can't get enough of it.
Yes, Yes, Yes. But I keep feeling that same way, moved beyond moved, with every new song she sings. With every new year she lives, with every bit of endless goodness that exudes from her. A true living angel, just when this world needed her most. Angelina is our proof that God is watching over us all and that He loves us immensely.
Thank you baby angel, for allowing Him to deliver such a moving, heart-warming message to the world through you. . . .
So many people agree with you, it's the biggest hit that never was.
There's still time. When she turns 18, what would stop her from releasing this? 😉😊❤
@@davidgoldstein1526 Probably whatever stopped her from releasing it back then. Time and inside information has shown that the 'inappropriate' trope is probably not correct.
@@zombie7857 it was most likely her mother that put the brakes on.
She was 10 when this was recorded. Look at the text of this song, its no way suitable for a 10 yo. So happy people around her stopped that. Amazing song tho!
SUPER reaction....I agree with you 100%, been following Angelina since the beginning, I'm 80 now, and this my number 1......
Wow! 80?? Impressive
She sounds like a 30 year old in this song. And this would be an excellent performance by a woman of any age. Very impressive.
Omg shes got many songs listen to more
Angelina is a perfect 10: at ten years old; love the song and the way she sings it .
This is a masterpiece!!!!!
This is incredible

Gorgeous song and Angelina did it so fine. Just close your eyes and bliss.
My favourite song she has ever done Her voice goes tight thru me and chills amazing.

I still can’t get over this song and this young singer.
More reaction for the angel angelina jordan please..
This is one of her best performances of all time Wild bill
You are right in every way, she truly is an exceptional young woman, the voice and delivery are superb and your reaction pricless.
This one is not as well known as some of her songs, but it’s definitely a favorite of hard-core Angelina fans.

Exactly . That's a Demo for Baby fuzz
It's a Masterpiece 👌
Angelina sings this beautiful! Her talent shines through! It is absurdly incredible and wonderful to listen to
The music the arrangement, tempo everything is the genius we know as Angelina
I so wish this could have been released. I love this. She is the best. The best. Iconic
it's not only a gift to have such a fantastic voice. the gift is that a girl like her are going puplic at the age of 7 the next gift is that she is very protected and supported by her fam. at her performence - the norway got talent auditution - back stage you can see the wake up call for her mom. but the truly gift is her grandma because she has seen her talent at a very young age. the video of her first visit in a music recording studio at the age of 6 shows the little pearl in this shell she has...
i hope you can understand my bad english comment.
I love her jazz/soul voice. It touches my heart.
If she sings like this with little effort, imagine 20, 30, 40 years from now.
This is my number 1 of Angelina performances.
Million Miles is my favorite
The actual name of the author of the song is Brian Lowery, and is a relatively well known song writer.
The soul and sass that she sings this with is absolutely amazing. The way she sings the word " crazy" just makes me crazy. No ten year old has ever sounded like this, it brings a lump to my throat.
An obsession? Yes. Many of us are.
This was a Grammy-worthy experience.
Also, don’t worry, Angels will never get tired of hearing you share the experience of enjoying and appreciating Angelina.
I seek out new reactions every day to relive the experience of discovering her. It was a turning point in my life that needs to be revisited constantly.
The video was pieced together by a "fan" but I love at the very end when we get a little glimpse of the baby who just blew your mind and made you cry. She's just so unbelievably talented.
She is Legand
You are so right. Weight for age this is still her best performance. Not only the singing but also the interpretation. She was the first to sing this song (well before BabyFuzz released it), so had nothing to inspire her. Bewildering that a ten year old can do this.
This was before her 11th birthday
I stood and clapped with you. Absolutely BRILLIANT.
On Facebook, Angelina has 2 Billion views and on RUclips she has over Half a Billion views. Great reaction. Thank you
UNREAL! Hoooooowwwwwwww????
I personally think it is impossible to choose which Angelina song is best etc ... But this song is absolutely crazy good can be the best ever and it depends on Angelina's way of performing the song.

@@rickyrheuark7989 yeah, my list certainly wasn't exhaustive. 😉☺

Angelina has critics? Now that is RIDICULOUS.
easily my favorite. great reaction.

If angelina did ever sing this again it would be completely different. Her voice has evolved since this performance and I really don't know what Angelina would do with this now.

....and then she went out to play!!
hahahaha...
Top 3 for now! In a year or so, it will fall back to your top 20 at the rate she's going! and say no mora say no mora.
Phenomenal right?! We are blessed. Thanks for appreciating Angelina!
Her vocals are amazing. Lacking in emotional depth because she's just 10! I can't imagine what she's going to sound like when she hits her twenties!
As you said, Angelina destroys this one (especially the bridge)!... but I think she likewise excels in the bridge of "Shield", "Million Miles", and a few others also. Part of the surprise that she nearly always brings one way or another! Makes us always want more!
Such a great reaction for such a great performance by Angela--there are words that can cover this but you did a fantastic job--thank you
This isn't the first time a demo track was made with no plan for release, then some how gets leaked, certainly doesn't harm Angelina, creates a bit of a mystery.
This song and I'd Rather Go Blind cover are my favorite. She is a phenomenon.
Yeah, those are MY favourites as well.
Impeccable. Perfection. Everything she does is great.
I don’t know if we call this one a cover
This is one is one of her best performance ever
Is very special. The way she sing it is just pure perfection.
As I know baby Fuz record the song later by his own. But Angelina ….
I mean guys the power in this song is absolutely ridiculous.
This is her best IMO...
You can't really call this a cover of the Baby Fuzz version, since Angelina recorded this about a year before Baby Fuzz. The urban myth surrounding this song is crazy! Brandon Lowery, aka Sterling Fox, aka Baby Fuzz, was the primary writer of this song when he was attending a songwriting camp in Oslo. He tried, unsuccessfully to get someone to record it before finally decided to record it himself. At some point, while he was trying to get it recorded, someone got Angelina to record this as a demo.
A lot of people seem to believe Angelina's family didn't like the lyrics, believing they referred to suicide. They really don't. And she did change the lyrics to eliminate the F-word, so she could have made other changes if they felt that was necessary. It's more likely a rights issue.
Nice reaction, Harri. You really should include a link to the original video in the description.
1 - The owner of this song is the lyric writer, Brandon Lowery, also known as Sterling Fox, also known as Baby Fuzz
2 - The demo was made right after the songwriting session, Brandon Lowery met Angelina at the house of one of the song's co-writers.
3 - The demo leaked just before Brandon Lowery released the song with another arrangement himself, revealing the other co-writers' contrary opinion, hoping to release it with Angelina, and changing the lyrics on the problematic part was the right thing to do. .
4 - The last part of the song promotes suicide, in the mold of John's baptism, by drowning in a river, a really problematic lyric that does not add support from any record company or singer.

In an interview Baby FuZZ said that there were no discussion between him and Angelina’s team about releasing the song. He said that he supports young artists and liked Angelina’s version of the song. He threatened to block the video if he keeps receiving criticism and abuse.
We are very thankful for Baby Fuzz for not blocking the video and supporting Angelina.
Thank you for your reaction to the one and only Angelina Jordan.
Fantastic info here David..Thanx
I doubt this will be released on an album. I read a statement by Angelina that when she got a little older she found she didn't like the reference to suicide and said she didn't want to sing the song again or release it in an album.
Harri, I think she has all, the rights, to sing as beautifully as she does. I am still in amazement of her love, vocals and her pure heart.
Just accept that this is real because it is. Thank you Harri for your wonderful reaction thumb up. Smile.
There you go Harri :-) Thank you very much for an amazing reaction. And thanks for the shoutout ! This song is a very safe bet, as you'd have a hard time finding someone who doesn't like it, or at least the performance of it by a ten year old girl. At least with the hearing intact, you know ? Lol
I almost feel a little sad that I like this so much, as jazz is her wheelhouse, and she has so many incredible performances in that genre. But truth be told, every time she takes a step outside that circle, it ends up jawdroppingly good. She's even ventured into EDM at one stage, and THAT performance, too, is something to behold. At some stage I REALLY do think you ought to chech that one out, too. In any case, here is the link for it : ruclips.net/video/y6SilwnR2Zc/видео.html
Like so many comment here, the song you just reacted to is shrouded in mystery, and I have heard several claims of holding the truth over the years. All that aside, the performance stands. And it stands rock solid.
Enjoy the Sunday my friend, and have a great week. Keep reacting to the future in music, I'm going nowhere. (BTW, I love how you gave the listener some more background info in this one. )
Love from Norway :-)
If not for you..this wont be here..Many thanks to you ✌🏾
I had a very, very, bad day until I watched your video reaction. Thank you so very mich Harri for the amazing blessings of your reactions. You saved me today. Thank you.
Thats heavy stuff Don..Thank you and i hope yiu are good now
Superb coverage of this AMAZING performance buy Angelin!!!!
Forget she young. This song I believe if it were released with AJ VOICE would make the billboard top 100 and maybe much higher , I think it's that good enjoyed your reactions as it reflects mine
Thank you for your love for Angelina Jordan and again another very heartfelt and honest analysis in this reaction.
Excellent reaction and in a way you can say it is an Angelina original, It was leaked before the writer of the song released his recording of it. Purely perfection on the Mastery Level of singing maybe only about 20 singers ever had existed or exists and she was 10! God Bless
God has blessed us with this beautiful young lady! Enjoy the ride😊❤
