- Oh my goodness. What a treasure we have in Angelina! This performance won her Norway's Got Talent show, and I can clearly see why! Join me for this incredible performance!
Sadly, I had a bit of a brain (cramp) and was using falsetto in observing her vocal style rather than vibrato lol. My humanity at work!
No, Angelina did not put a spell on me. She amazed me. She shocked me. She delighted, entertained and pleased me. But another put a spell on me first, leaving me immune to Angelina's magic. I love many, maybe even most of the dozens of Angelina performances that I have been privileged to see. But once a performer has burrowed into your heart, they can not be displaced by mere greatness.
You’re daddies rich is the best moment of her life
It’s beyond belief and understanding that she is this good at her age or any age. If the freaks in the music industry don’t mess with her she may be ultimately be mentioned amongst the greatest singers ever!!!
She was born with an incredible ability! Agreed!
She is a prodigy and the greatest artist to ever walk the earth
Angelina Jordan is a Norwegian singer who rose to fame in 2014, as an 8-year-old, by winning the reality TV show Norway’s Got Talent. Her performance in the competition’s audition round, where she had sung Billie Holiday’s version of Gloomy Sunday that was composed by Hungarian pianist and composer Rezső Seress in 1933, had gone viral and received global press …
Great reaction and God Bless!
Yeah this is a great one. 👍👍
Mar 19, 2021 · A musical prodigy, Angelina Jordan sang for the first time at barely a year old, and she never stopped. The Los Angeles-based 14-year-old singer and songwriter amplified her voice around the globe, racking up over half-a-billion RUclips views, just shy of 2 billion Facebook views, and praise from Time, CNN, The BBC, and People.
Great
Hey Chris I just looked again at your subscriptions you are almost to 50,000 incredible congratulations I love your reactions
Thanks so much!!!!
She will be studied and taught at every music school in the world. Books will be written and documentaries produced far into the future. There has never been anyone such as Angelina. Probably will never be another.
To not recognize her genius is insane.
I would be surprised if not.
I pray and hope to see it come to past the girl is the best their ever was or is, she is just that good :))
Larry, two comments: first, there’s no question that Angelina is a better singer now than when she was very young, but I love her earlier singing as much as I love her now. Her very early performances, like this one or Gloomy Sunday stand on their own. They blow apart what you thought you could expect from a very young child.
Secondly, I don’t think Angelina will ever have the popularity of Elvis or Michael Jackson, etc. They were performers for mass audiences. Angelina is an artist with incredible vocal skills and musicality. But that will not necessarily appeal to mass audiences. Her fans, like you and me, will know we’re hearing a once in a lifetime talent, but Angelina will be more of a niche singer like Norah Jones or Amy or Tony Bennett. She is better than anyone I’ve heard in my 70+ years-second place is not close. I could listen to Angelina every day-and I do. I’ve never felt that way about any other singer.
In the 50’s & 60’s there was only 3 to 4 regular broadcast tv channels and one tenth the number of local radio stations. Today with the world wide internet we are hearing/ seeing talent that would otherwise never be known. The world is a stage for anyone with a cell phone and some are damn good!
Everyone to their own opinion I just agree I think she will be an international star world wife She singer Krause 40,000 people 10,000 people 20,000 people South Korea 40,000 Russia Germany France Alan Walker headed home 10 years old thing about that is a people
Revere is around the world are praising her Russia Germany Sweden Finland and many other countries
All that subject is matter of taste what you prefer I prefer them all because I want you do with the little you’re in my heart I watch her since she was born a year old and she grew up at my house I had the privilege of seeing Norway’s got talent live it was very impressive she is a prodigy that explains everything to me
What has always amazed me about Angelina's singing is that every note is fascinating and captivating.She never just races to her favourite part of a song,it seems as if she savours every,note,syllable,line,with deep emotional passion.
Very accurate diagnosis. Each frase, each word and note of her, from little age, they are with full emotional expression. I don't know if it's hard work and practice or just god touch.
This will go down in history in time as the best ever version by anyone IMHO regardless of age! Great reaction.
Like the way you took apart the various ways she used her voice !!!
Eight years... !!! How is this possible?!!! It is possible for those who came from another celestial sphere where only music is breathed...!!! She already came like this, singing like the greatest divas of the past! Unbelievable!!! She is wonderful!!!
I could barely tie my shoes at 8. She’s not only singing jazz standards and winning competitions, she’s doing it in a different language than her mother tongue. Mind boggling.
❤️ 💚 💜 Every time I hear Angelina sing, I picture her stepping out of an old black & white movie, to transport us back in time, so we can fall in love with these genuine masterpieces again! If there ever was a reason to believe in something greater than us, or in reincarnation, Angelina Jordan is definitely it. She truly has the rare ability to connect with us, from her soul to ours, through her music, so we not only hear her magical voice, but also, feel it too. Really enjoyed your raw, informative & emotional reaction** ❤️ 💚 💜 ***ANGELINA JORDAN IS TRULY A BLESSING*** ❤️ 💚 💜
Thanks Sandy for your kind words! As far as Angelina, well-said!
Love. Love. Love this version. She is a prodigy. Thanks for reacting to this.
The moment she sang her first note, she was destined to become a star.....🌟 thank you sir. Great reaction👍👍 ✌

Angelina Jordan saying it’s a man’s world
Hi Larry, Angelina worked closely with the trumpeter and the musicians. There are videos of her showing the trumpeter how she wanted it played...it's amazing. There are other videos of her at other venues where she keeps requesting the band to perform the song the way she wants it. Example, "Angelina Jordan Rehearsal (AT LAST) Part 1 2014" at 8 years old, she asks her mother to tell the band to make adjustments (tempo, loudness etc) on 3 occasions until they got it to her liking. She knows how to make a song sound good regardless of age. You are shortchanging yourself if you miss her performance "FEELING GOOD" Live on the Stream Gir Tilbake at 10 on stage with a full jazz orchestra. I don't think even today that Angelina could improve that performance. And it's her arrangement. Thanks Larry
I remember that she did a lot of Elvis covers too. She hasn't done any rap or opera yet. But if she ever does, it would be interesting. Great reaction!
Actually, Summertime is from Porgy and Bess, which was an opera, so that might count.
@@todradmaker4297 therefore she uses here so much classical vibrator. She is music 🎶👌
Her earliest recording session was "I who have nothing" at 6 yrs old. She began voice lessons at 4. Also, all arrangements are hers. The full version video has her winning the show. Of the 10 finalists, she got 46% of the vote.
The vocal technique you are hearing is vibrato, not falsetto. And yeah, she has been refining that technique her whole career. And also, you hit on it, her stage presence is phenomenal. When she performs she is completely *present* in a transcendent way.
Please but in this rendition have no falsetto!!!!!!??????
It's pure natural voice!!!!!
I Cris sheer He knows he made a mistake lol
You got it Larry Angelina is always on point with her band playing around ….. always acknowledges & ready for band member to play their part…. she’s absolutely amazing 🤩
another great reaction Larry I look forwards to them.... I think you are mixing up the term Falsetto with vibrato
You are correct! Brain cramp on my end lol
Her 2016 rendition with a full orchestra is just magical. Your wife would really appreciate it.
Gracias!! Gracias!!! Gracias por continuar escuchándola!! Y hay más!!!
Saludos desde Argentina!!🧉🧉🧉🤗🤗🤗
the second "and your daddy's Good Looking" is one of the purest tones ever. Effects me every time I hear it.
Thanks for another great reaction to Angelina's masterful final NGT performance on her way to winning - at age 8. To get a more complete feel for her NGT experience (which she started at age 7), recommend you also check out her 3 prior NGT performances: Gloomy Sunday, I'm A Fool To Want You & Bang, Bang. There is at least one combo video that includes all 4 of her short performances - with the judges feedback. There is also an even earlier studio video of Angelina at 6 years old singing I Who Have Nothing. Thank you. And may GOD continue to watch over & bless Angelina Jordan.
Please do it again with the judges. The amount of time I spend contemplating the words that they bestow on this angel is endless. I have never heard anyone praised, and held up on such a high pedestal, as AJ was here! It is a must see. And she , of course, just accepted it for what it was. The truth!!
she is an all time first class jazz singer at the age of 8 with 40 years of life experience
Almost exactly 6 months earlier, and still only 7, she auditioned with Gloomy Sunday, a little girl with missing teeth and hair all over the place, the cutest little poppet making the judges smile and go aaahh! That was the beginning, and the first time she went viral.
Highly recommend you check that performance out! Somebody is bound to give you the link ❤👣🎶 I really enjoy your reactions, thank you for keeping them real 🤗
you could tell that in that one she was nervous, apprehensive for the first few bars but she quickly settled
She got 5 M views with "Gloomy Sundays" .She became instantly famous 0in Ni
Her 1st Studio Version is when she is 6yrs singing I Who Have Nothing. Love Love her enthusiasm and knowing she is doing good.
It's not just her crazy voice. Her aura is pure soothing emotion.
I believe it comes from her also being a humble and beautiful human being.
It is incomprehensible how good she is at any age.
Always fantastic.
There’s a video of her practicing for this number with band members, and she is showing the trumpeter how she wants it done! When the competition started, she was just 7 years old and had just turned 8 by the final. You can watch her teeth growing in from the beginning of the competition to the end. Be sure to watch her second song which she sings a capella, age 7, and blows everyone, including the contestants, away!
Yes, she is better and better, but I could listen to this all day. It is nothing short of incredible. Did you notice how long she held that last "don't you cry" .? Wow, wow, wow.
Great reaction! She’s a music genius!!🥰🥰🥰
Larry, well done outstanding reaction to "Summer Time", and her stage presence. What I love about this performance is that Angelina's personality and confidences shines through along with her Jazzy voice. During rehearsal Angelina tells the trumpeter when she wants him to hit a higher note during the song. Her Band nicknamed her the "Boss", with respect to her ability and understanding of music tempo during a song at such a early age!
Thanks Chris for commenting on this wonderful Angelina gem and for the wonderful reaction. I absolutely love all her 4 performances at the NGT. One of the judges of this edition (Lisa Tønne) said, after his first performance, with Gloomy Sunday, "you Are the Music" and really I think that this is the best and most concise description of this little girl. She does not channel, use or absorb the music, she is truly pure music, everything to her seems so natural, simple, easy ... it's not, but she really makes it seem that way. She really is like she is the eighth muse 💛 🧡 ❤️
Her unique and fantastic way of slowing down the phrasing and the music, makes me think of the perfume distillation process, it's as if she stretches the melody until distilling its pure musical essence, I love her voice 🤗
Not a “singing” competition, Larry! - talents in all forms 😉
This is as good a version of this song as I've heard in a very long time. Angelina's vocal technique and skill is amazing for an 8-year old. She doesn't use falsetto in this one; her vibrato has always been stellar. And it is ALWAYS captivating to watch her sing. 😎
Angelina is often referred to as the boss at rehearsal starting at very early times.
her "Vibrato" is spectacular.
lol!
Hola, que buena reaccion, tan sentida y con tan ricas palabras, este y otros videos de Angelina, son esos que ni lo ves no lo crees, me quedo sin palabras, Angelina se ha llevado cada una de ellas, y que mejor, ya que ella le da un gran sentido a cada una de ellas, cuando canta le creo todas las historias de cada cancion, esa garganta con arena, pero no es solo su unica voz, tambien su interpretacion, mas alla de su edad, Angelina a cautivado al publico mas dificil, que somos nosotros, los mayores, que nos cuentan los cambios, que nos hace sentir jovenes, he visto videos de recitales, que las personas son mayores, los musicos son mayores, todo a su alrededor son personas mayores y ahi esta Angelina, parada ante todos, siendo la jefa de sus musicos, sin ningun tipo de miedo, segura como pocas y todos admirandola, rompiendose las manos en aplausos, hace lagrimear hasta a la persona mas dura, y ese nudo en la garganta que cuesta desatar, para mi es un ser humano muy especial, que lo traslada a la musica, por eso siemto, que Angelina es mas que musica...
Thank you Nestor! You are so very kind.
Nice one Larry. One of the great performances of this song ever and she is 8 years old. You hit on some very big names in music history, and in my humble opinion, this young lady will be right up there with the greats, considering how great she is at age 15. She has a long ways to go to get even better (not sure if that is possible) in her career so don't sell this super talented music genius short on achieving the same stardom if Republic Records promotes her properly. Enjoyed your comments and reaction very much....continue on Larry.
No idea why but the tears just flow everytime I hear this performance..I mean every-time..no artist in any genre has ever done this to me before.
You are tip toeing through the thorn bushes, not tulips when honest comments are made for some of these very popular performers. I’ve watch all of the folks you mentioned several times. They are all crazy talented and I hope they all are successful in their life’s pursuits. Having said that my eyes sprung a leak the second Angelina started singing Summertime. She does that to so many of us that yes, I believe she put a spell on us.
I’m a 72 year young white male with two sons and nine grandkids. I saw Elvis the first time he was on Ed Sullivan’s show and watched the girls screaming. Those same girls now in their mid to late 70’s don’t scream or cry when Elvis videos come on I bet. Yet this little girl, now young lady brings this reaction out in both, I mean ALL sexes!
Larry , when Angelina started this competition she was only 7. In her first audition she sang Gloomy Sunday by Billie Holiday , her second song in the show was Bang , Bang by Cher . I can't remember her third song but is was done A cappella and of course she did this song in the Finale. She won the competition against 9 other performers with 46% of the total vote. Not bad for an 8 year old!
I _so_ wanted to comment halfway through your reaction, but I was able to control myself until the song was over (but not until the end of your reaction). I like the things you pointed out about the performance, but there are so may other things you didn't comment on. For example, I was hoping that you would notice and comment on her look off to the side and smile at 5:40 (in this reaction video). Think about that: she's midway through her _final_ performance in this competition, being broadcast live on TV, and she takes a moment to smile at someone in the audience! Talk about "being present"! I don't know if it was one of her friends or family members, or just a random audience member who caught her eye, but regardless, I find that far more remarkable than her look towards the trumpet player just moments earlier. And then that thing she sang off-mic at 6:30… she is singing (her version of) an ad-lib that Louis Armstrong sang in the original version that this arrangement is based on (his version with Ella Fitzgerald for their joint album _Porgy and Bess_ in the late '50s). To be specific, Louis sang something like, "Mmm-bop, don't you say, oh!", and Angelina appears to sing, "Don't you say no". And finally, something I haven't heard or read anyone else point out: at the very end, when she repeats "Don't you cry" three times (after singing it "normally" as the final line of the verse), in the first repeat she bends the pitch _ever_ so slightly as she's singing "cry" (at 6:49), and then in the second repeat, she bends it _much_ more noticeably (at 6:55, right at the end of the same word), and so quickly that it almost sounds like her vibrato "getting away from her". The first one is so subtle even I have a hard time hearing it, when I'm specifically listening for it. The second one you can't miss (once you notice it, anyway). Both of them seem so intentional and yet at the same time almost "accidental"… I really wonder how planned they were.
Hi Larry,thank you for this great reaction to my favourite performance by Angelina.It is supersonic in talent .Her phrasing,timing and vibrato are perfect!Her raspy voice I love.I prefer her older stuff like this as I love her singing jazz songs, she just does it so well,it's like she was born to do it.My favourite part of this song is in the second half when she sings-'Oh your daaaaaaddy's rich and your ma ah ah is good looking.'with that rasp on the word ma, it's fantastic.
It's a shame about Stranger, hope we can see it soon .Cheers from New Zealand
See her aged 6 first time in a studio, I who have nothing, amazing.
Love your genius reaction thanks larry
I can agree with you that her voice and her technique is more developed by now, but what is truly impressive at this young age is her deep understanding of music. When I first heard her audition piece, _Gloomy Sunday,_ I was astounded by the way she sang. Not so much by her voice and technique, but by her phrasing and musical artistry. When I then heard her acapella performance of _I'm A Fool To Love You,_ I realized that she's truly special. There are very few people in the world who has shown such maturity in music at that tender age.
Very well said!
Listen to 6yr old Angelina sing , " I who have nothing", one of the first times in a recording studio. Make sure you find the enhanced version with subtitles. Love your reactions, thx!
You can truly feel the "cry" in her voice here. I believe that was the purpose of using that strong "vibrato". It makes this rendition very special and unique.
I've followed Angelina for quite some time now and you can be sure that her way of singing would always reflect the lyrics. She prioritizes the lyrics and emotions over the tone. I think that approach sets her apart from many other artists.
An insane performance by an 8 year old ❤ The way Angelina sings the word Daddy the second time, is so good that it hugs my soul ❤ Have a great day 👍
If we talk Angelina and age, she started pushing her mom to enter her in talent shows when she was 3! Wanting to sing for Simon in America's got talent. There's also a snippet from when she was 18 months, humming a Whitney Houston song...
Like all true professionals, I believe Angelina focuses on input and the outcome is what follows. She fronts up does what she’s done so many times before gives it her best, finishes curtsies and leaves. As always greatly appreciated from an Angelina and Larry’s Hair fan down under
Have you heard “I’m Still Holding Out For you” ? It is a masterpiece at age 10.
In 2016 AJ was invited by KORK (Royal Radio Ochestra of Norway) to sing this song with full orchestra, literally, behind her. She did, exactly as Gershwin had intended it to be sung. The orchestra loved her for that. Gg.
The Sky is Not Her limit it's Her Starting point 🤗
Not only have you have come across someone truly special,
you are correct when you said she will not rise to the stardom of MJ or Elvis.
This prodigy will surpass them.
You might like to review and compare her version of "summertime" with KORK orchestra at age 11 2017. I love it even more than the version at eight . A little more subtle and it is sublime.
There is a small handful of absolutely beautiful classics sung by Angelina when she was quite young (8-10). The version of “Summertime” you mention is quite possibly the best. It’s perfect. [The other song on this very short list is Angelina’s cover of “Every Time We Say Goodbye” (IMHO)].
@@peterhormell1511 I think we could add What A Difference A Day Makes to this list as well. I agree that her Summertime with KORK is on a whole other level.
The recording with KORK is from 2016, she was 10.
Absolutely Tod!
Kristen
I believe Angelina was covering a version by Ella Fitzgerald and kills it. She instructed the musicians how she wanted to sing it. Beyond prodigious.
👍👍👍 up,,,That's the last song she sang but she won the competition after she did "Gloomy Sunday" from Billie Holiday her first song she sang,, in a interview that was done on one of the judges (Omar) stated while watching Angelina's practicing on her third song (Bang Bang from Sinatra) she was instructing the guitar player what tempo, what key she wants him to play, and to fallow her, and Omar said that's when all the judges knew that this little girl was very special the way she commanded the stage just blew thier mind,,
👣🌬🌎
I adore Angelina's growth as an artist over the last couple of years and I listen to her newer stuff a lot more than the old. OTOH, older videos like this have a "Dear God how is this even possible?!" factor that's hard to beat.
She is 1 in a generation. As you said like Elvis preslly ! It's a phenomenal , outerspace vocal control. Never had the same reaction from other singers performance .i wish to be in her full concert. Please update about her future performances. GREAT REACTION VIDEO.
Thanks Eli!
Words of a wise, thanks
Reacting to your reaction; "It"s really a great time to be alive to be able to come across talent like this....
i love what you just say. Great reaction larry !
Thanks YB!
After Jordan's performances of two Billie Holiday songs, "Gloomy Sunday" and "I'm a Fool to Want You", on Norway's Got Talent, as well as "Fly Me to the Moon" on a TV talk show, all went viral online in March 2014, she was featured in Time,[1] Daily Mirror,[2] People,[5] and other news outlets around the world.[6] She continued in the competition singing Nancy Sinatra's version of "Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down)" live in the semi-finals,[7] and won with her performance of George Gershwin's "Summertime", in the style of Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong's 1958 recording of the song.
In September 2014, she performed "Fly Me to the Moon" on the US television show The View,[8] bringing her wider fame in the United States. She also performed on several TV 2 programs in Norway over the next few years, including multiple appearances on Allsang på Grensen (Singalong at the Border, referring to the border fortress of Fredriksten where outdoor concerts are held) and on TV4 in Sweden.
Jordan had a small guest role in the final episode of the Netflix series Lilyhammer, playing a girl who sings in a bar.[9]
In December 2014, she partly realized a personal ambition of singing at the Nobel Peace Prize Concert by performing for Peace Prize recipients Malala Yousafzai and Kailash Satyarthi at the Save the Children's Peace Prize Celebration.[10]

Angelina Jordan (born Angelina Jordan Astar; 10 January 2006) is a Norwegian singer whose audition for the 2014 season of Norway's Got Talent, singing "Gloomy Sunday" in the style of Billie Holiday, became a viral video online and brought her worldwide press coverage at the age of 7. She went on to win the competition with her performance of George Gershwin's "Summertime".
I did not know if you realise that she arranged her own music.Such a talent.
You can see that, starting in the second verse, the trumpet provides "fills" at the end of each phrase. She looks at him as a cue, to be sure he makes his entrance. She knows exactly how she wants this to sound, and is essentially conducting while singing. Similarly, earlier in this series (during the semi-final round) when she sang "Bang Bang," she looks at the bass player (again, the only performer on stage with her) to be sure he makes his entrance for the ending phrase (the coda). From very young, she is the consummate musician and a perfectionist.
Go back to her at 6 yrs old in studio singing I Who Have Nothing!!! fantastic
Please be honest if you hear something to criticise about Angelina. I've been looking for something for a while, but aside from a couple of early performances where she was ill - and one can't fault her for the fact that she went ahead anyway because they were charity events - and even then she was amazing. So far there is just ONE criticism I have to make on one song, but as no one agrees with me I'll say no more!
One on the best and most beautiful videos Angelina has made i think is Howe Great Thou Art is. Would be fun if you want to make a reaction of it
Hey Tommy! Yes, I have reacted to it and it is expected to drop on the 13th. Keep your eye out!
Che sicurezza! Che senso musicale ! Un genio
At this age she made the arrangement of the song too. If you want to see how she works with a band you should watch the video where she is jamming with her band at 9 years old with her version of 'Potrait of a man' that she changed in 'Portrait of a child'.
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Agreed, she just improves every year. I too prefer her more recent voice. She is very musically aware, almost as if she is watching her own performance. This is very different to Aurora who IS her song.
I think that you are confusing Falsetto, for Vibrato. Angelina is also on TV during this, not just in front of the judges and audience. She has stated that she never gets nervous, that she loves to sing, and that she always has fun on stage, it’s her favorite place to be. Angelina is truly a gift to the world. I have never, in all of my life (I’m old), heard an artist that moves me with every song. Another reactor said it nicely, and succinctly, other singers are great vocalists, you hear them and appreciate their talent. Angelina is not just a vocalist, but a true Artist, that resonates in your soul, and makes you marvel at her talent.
lol, yes. I mentioned it on my last reaction that I had that "brain fart" and was going the wrong way with the word. I must have been pretty tired :)
Hallo Chris, the first song in this competition was a cover from Billie Holiday "Gloomy Sunday". At this time she was only 7 years old. The second song was a cover from Nancy Sinatra "Bang Bang".
Both are also wonderful. You talked about Elvis. There are some songs she covered. Very special "How great thou art". She was 14 years old. At the age of 9 she sang 2 songs from Alan Walker on a concert with him. Greetings from Germany
I think you have got her age wrong when she sang"How Great You Are",I think she is 12 or 13,most likly only 12.
@@frankjohansen9364 Hallo Frank, thanks for your information. I looked to the YT-Video published by Yozhik v Tumane. He wrote it was recorded by Angelina late in December 2019 with Happy New Year greetings. This is only a few days before Anglinas 14. birthday on 10. Januray. So she was 13, if Yozhik v Tumane wasn't wrong. By the way, 12 or 13 or 14 years, Angelinas talent is beyond her years.
Larry. You saw that look to the trumpet player but what you might not have noticed, the very first shot of the video actually showed that player and you see that he is the same one who Angelina visually talks to on two occasions of 'I Put A Spell On You', seemingly giving each other signals in both videos.
She won at age 7, the show aired after she turned 8 (Jan 10 birthday)
This final was live May 23, 2014, so 8yo. The rule is apparently that contestants age in any and all AGT spin-offs, references the age at audition. Hence the arguments re her age. AGT The Champions was recorded Oct 2019 and went out Jan/Feb 2020, so Angelina was 13. Very confusing! 😶🙃
❤️❤️❤️
"she's doing this at EIGHT... such confidence..." etc - at this point, she had been singing for 5 yrs, and at a music school (the early studio recordings were done at the school she studied at)
To put another perspective on this - Angelina had been arranging her performances and performing for 5 yrs at this point - the glances and gestures she makes sometimes (here, and the early studio recordings) are her giving cues to the instrumentalists, her nickname at the music school was The Boss
There’s a rehearsal video of Summertime where she makes corrections to the horns📌
There is another from NGT that I am hoping someone will react to. She sang “I’m A Fool to Want You” A cappella. It is amazing but after you listen to that, someone has taken the Billy Halliday backtrack and placed it behind her a cappella performance. Suddenly you hear what she is hearing in her mind. Each minuet choice she makes, each hold, release, quaver suddenly makes sense. I just heard this recently and never thinking she could blow my mind anymore than she had well my mind was gone. Pretty amazing.
There is another one she does at age 6 “ I Who Have Nothing” it is the first time in studio she sings the song she jumps up and down with joy. Oh she started the competition at 7 then turned 8 to finish. By the way when she audition for the show she did it With no back up music.
Angela herself said on America's got talent that she was seven when she won Norway,
What she did is run a backing track, and added in the Trumpet. This was her arrangement .
It's called Vibrato. and she developed it very early on, when listening to this same style of Music.
Angelina has the Unique ability to "Mimic" the artists she adores.
(In another world, she would make a great impersonator)
Same here. I could appreciate she was unique and all but it really wasnt my style, I have followed her since she auditioned on Norways got talent. Even seen her randomly on the street a few times😊, but anyways, she has always had a great talent but now she has fine tuned it more.
And she is also more than twice the age as when she sang in Norways got talent. Been amazing to follow her journey, she really is unique and her range and power is awesome. Plus her tone is just magical!
And she has always just come across as sweet, smart and humble! Her English level at 13 sounds like a native American, not a Norwegian girl with an accent.
Have been enjoying your Angelina reaction videos. Gotta ask, are you in S. AZ? Your kitchen/great room - I’m almost certain I knew someone who lived there! I know that’s weird and understand totally if you don’t want to comment. Anyway, thanks for more AJ!
Actually I'm in California
See her cover of " I Who Have Nothing " at age 6! Yes I said 6. It's worth your time! See what she was doing at 6.

Larry, you must react to Angelina's new release cover of Adele's easy on me. It is studio produced by Republic records and is receiving rave reviews, many thinking it is her best release.
