    - The Barefoot Princess of Jazz -
    Why does Angelina sing barefooted? Angelina Jordan is known as "The Barefoot Princess" or "The Barefoot Princess of Jazz", amongst many other names. She always performs barefooted, whether in front of a live audience or during a studio performance.
    The story is that while living in the Middle East, at age 6, Angelina came across an orphaned girl, of her own age, sitting in the street, weighing people on a bathroom scale to earn money. Angelina said to herself "I would like to share her life for one second to know what it is like to sit alone, wet, and damp, and barefoot in a corner of the street." Angelina could see the girl's bare feet were scarred and that it was cold outside so she offered her own shoes to the girl. Little Angelina says that she really loved her shoes, as they were very nice and she knew she would miss them. But she saw the other little girl’s need for them which outweighed her own desire to keep them. So she insisted the little girl take them.
    Angelina called her Princess, even though the girl said she didn't live in a castle, but the ruins of a building next to where she sat. After sharing their hopes and dreams, the little girl said of Angelina's wish to sing for the world, "You will become the one you dream of and when your dreams come true you, have to remember the poor children without shoes; and I will pray for you Angelina.” Later that day 6 y/o Angelina wrote in her diary, "The world is very strange. Right then and there I felt as if a door in my heart opened up, and it was filled with lots of lights. It was as if there was, from Earth to Heaven, a staircase. I climbed the stairs. To be able to do something for another human - it was such a big thing…hard to describe really.”
    From that point on, Angelina takes off her shoes, in honor of ‘Princess’ and all the other less fortunate children of the world, who are orphaned, hungry, or in want of even basic clothing. In 2015, at the age of 9, Angelina wrote a book about the encounter, as everyone continued to ask why she sang barefoot. Her grandmother, Mery Zamani, created the artwork for the book. So at 9, Angelina Jordan became the youngest published author in Norway. Angelina has performed alongside many other artists, raising attention and helping to raise over 21 million euros and millions of dollars for children in need.

    ...and doing that with so much simplicity, humility, sincerity...So no need to move around making ridiculous mimics...and belting like hell...That's call exceptional talent? sheer genius.
    a lesson for most of those mainstream ladies out there.

    Bottom line IMO: mastery demonstrated in phrasing, musicality, breath control, accentuation jazz influence, applies vocal ornaments as are most impactful..and.. It takes true talent to start a song Acapella and keep your pitch...finally, You DON'T HAVE TO BELT YOUR WAY THROUGH A PERFORMANCE, to achieve a moving, captivating, exquisite and stunning version of a classic rock song. For a point of reference, I strongly recommend you watch her black and white video of "I Put A Spell on You" She was 9 yrs old..and you will know learn how talented she was at this age...with 70M views, you'll understand exactly how long and talented this Prodigy truly is!! You have been warned..that performance will leave you awestruck!! 😉😉 Nice reaction you two!! PEACE!! 🎶🎤🎹🎶🎵🎵

  • @kerrythomas6220
    @kerrythomas6220 Год назад +3

    One thing you didn’t pick up on is that English is Angelina’s third language. She is Norwegian, her mother, her father is Swedish, her grandma Mery who introduced her to music is Iranian(Farsi), her husband is Japanese, so Angelina speaks 2 or 3 and parts of a couple more. I have heard her sing in Japanese reading the lyrics, so she is quite multi linguistic.

    Great reaction! Angelina's fans really enjoy vocal coaches reactions to her. Not trained in anyway to sing, all I know is what pleases my ears. At sixty eight years old I've been exposed to a lot of music. I've been moved many many times through the years but never have I been moved so deeply (to tears) as I have been by Angelina. I've never heard lyrics so clearly expressed. I've never heard tone as unique as hers. She has the skill of a singer who's been performing in smoke filled clubs for years and it takes me away in thought and emotion. After listening to Angelina everyday for almost two years, from her age of seven to soon to be seventeen, I'm convinced we are witnessing a true prodigy. THERE'S MORE!! so much more. Her fans (angels) will follow your adventure of amazement reacting to Angelina Jordan.

An amazing vocalist and musician, and a wonderful person. She has a dedicated fan base (her Angels) who will provide more information. Fun reaction!

      what do you mean saying "far more than a singer"? I know a little bit about her, I know she is an awesome human being because of her being barefoot story and how she works for making the world a better place.. I also know she met with Heidi Klum recently (I live in Germany and Heidi is one of the least liked celebraties here..). how can she change my life besides her extraordinary voice?

  • @davidcochran6291
    @davidcochran6291 Год назад +1

    Angelina wrote that arrangement. Queen liked it so much they gave her permission to copyright her arrangement. Angelina adored Amy Winehouse and she waited through a ton of recording contracts until she finally had a meeting with Republic Records, Amy's old label. It was shortly after this show that she got a call from Republic and the talks weren't going well. Just when the execs got ready to leave Angelina's manager, her uncle Michael, pulled out a demo tape of her original song, 'A Million Miles' and played it. The suits turned around and signed Angelina to a Preferred Artist contract.
    Angelina also opened for Norah Jones in South Korea when Angelina was 10 yrs.old. Angelina was personally invited to sing for Quincy Jones 85th birthday celebration at the O2 Arena in London. She sang Quincy's arrangement of, 'Fly Me To The Moon' that he wrote for Frank Sinatra. Quincy called Angelina, "the best young vocalist since Michael Jackson".
    Thanks you for your reaction. Prepare yourself because you are in for the ride of your life.

    You cannot listen to a handful of her songs and know how she'll sing. She is 16 now to get an idea of this listen to 4 songs from this year. SUSPICIOUS MINDS by Elvis, MY FUNNY VALENTINE, MOUNT EVEREST by Labyrinth her opening number at the Konsberg Jazz festival and lastly Whitney cover I HAVE NOTHING. She is brilliant at 7 year old audition singing Gloomy Sunday, she was 8 by the final Summertime, but Bang Bang is one of my favourites. Soon after she sang WHAT A DIFFERENCE A DAY MAKE in a large open air concert with backing singers. So she has recorded almost everything shes has done since she first sung with a mike under the age of 2....so you will never run out of reactions for us angels.

    LOL Welcome to the barefoot princess, yo just opened up a rabbit hole to the greatest singer alive. She has over 100 covers that will absolutely blow your mind. If you keep doing reactions to her I will subscribe just to see your viewpoint. The barefoot princess is absolutely unbelievable. She arranges all of her own music ever since she was at a young age. She’s a child prodigy. English is not her first language and speaks like four languages. She plays like four instruments. The barefoot princess is also the youngest published author in Norway. She wrote a book of why she sings barefoot. She is so humble and so down to earth and the reason she sings barefoot is a tribute to how great she is. She is absolutely an angel sent from heaven.

    Wasn't that something!? I enjoyed your video very much and to your unsuspecting guest, "Welcome to the wonderful world of Angelina Jordan!"
    No one like her and the more you listen to her the more you will be startled by what she sings for you. Yes, for you. You will believe she is making direct contact with you and when you feel something happening inside you it's your heart trying to tell you it felt the love in her voice and if you begin to tear up or feel the urge to full out cry, don't feel alone. Thousands (millions?) of people all over the world have had the same experience and once she has touched someone's heart she will never leave them.
    You may ask, "How come I've never heard of her before!?" She hasn't been officially marketed, yet, to the world and her family wants her to finish her education first and enjoy life as a teenage girl as much as she can before committing herself fulltime to her career.
    Get ready to receive a boat load of information about Angelina (playlists and personal data) from her fan base (her 'angels'). I have subbed and look forward to more reactions from you featuring Angelina Jordan.

    You liked the arrangement. Well, she did the arrangement. She does all the arrangements for all songs she performs. If you watch her doing "I put a spell on you" (B&W version), you see in the start where she hands several pages of notes to the director. (when she was 10)

    You have come across, imho, THE GOAT singer!
    This version so impressed the members of Queen, they not only tweeted their approval,
    they allowed her to copyright it! The ultimate stamp of approval.
    BTW, this was her own arrangement!

  • @mrstlu4838
    @mrstlu4838 Год назад +12

    Just love it when people discover Angelina! Amy and Norah, yes. But you need to go back in time much further - to Ella and Louis, Billie Holiday, Screaming Jay Hawkins, Dinah Washington … ALL the legends, she’ll have sung their iconic songs. Have a look at her playlist (I’m pretty sure somebody will have listed it!), choose whatever takes your fancy, and enjoy this signature voice. I hope she sings, writes and arranges music for many, many years and gives the world true music again.
    If I have to suggest only one song, I would go back to when she was 8 and had just won NGT. She sang ‘What a Difference a Day Makes’ on live tv at an outdoor entertainment venue. The most gorgeous singing by an 8 year old I ever heard, she made you feel every word! At 8!
    Thank you very much for bringing Angelina to your subscribers.

    What a great reaction you 2 & info. We love our coaches to get nerdy on AJ. I give new Angie reactors a welcome pack, please read. She chooses all her own songs & does all her own arrangements ever since
    she was very young, even when she did Screaming Jay Hawkins “I put a spell on you” the B&W version, ruclips.net/video/nwFloCPXzCs/видео.html at barely 9, even at 7 & 8 on NGT (Norway’s Got Talent). On AGT-C
    season 2 Angie & her grandma Mery made her outfit from silkscreen patterns of her grandma's art work when she was 13 back in Norway. They makes several of her other outfits for shows & concerts too.
    She also paints great, plays 5 instruments & speaks & sings 4+ languages, English being her 3rd.
    Angie turned 16 on 1-10-22. Angie is a very kind, giving, loving, respectful, humble & a big hearted Christian girl. She always sings barefoot when performing & she wrote a book about it at 9 called
    “Between Two Hearts” & she was/is the youngest to be published in Norway. Queen was so impressed
    with her rendition that they reportedly gave Angelina her blessing to record and release her own version
    of the song by giving her the copyright to do so.)
    (Why does Angie performs barefoot. Angelina gives a short little interview explaining why she performs barefoot. ruclips.net/video/-cCLDY0CSZ8/видео.html) Angie has arranged over 160 covers & written 5 songs & has
    had 2 written for her also so far, & she’s mastered over 10 genre’s already at 13. One of her nicknames is “The barefoot Angel/Princess with a 1000 voices & a Mona Lisa smile” & the “Queen of jazz”. Angie never sings a song the same way twice, so you could say they’ll all be 1st time reactions. Angie sings like an instrumentalist, combined with narrative music. Another reason she’s so especially rare & great. Angie is like a 2006 Bordeux in the Meroc but we’ll say Norway =) Her voice still wont fully mature for another 10-15 years. Then it can be opened. WOW , the aroma, color, texture & than we get to taste/hear it =)

    For a real treat, check out her cover of Screamin Jay Hawkins' "I Put a Spell on You" (1956). Performed a year after winning Norway's Got Talent (8), Angelina created something that everyone should see at least once in their life. She never repeated this arrangement; something that will be apparent to you after watching this performance. Regardless, this performance will not just blow your mind, it will knock your heads clean off your shoulders.
    At 9 years and 2 months old, Angelina arranged and performed a black and white studio cover of this jazz classic; considered by many to be a masterpiece cover. There are 195 versions of the song, performed by such greats as: Nina Simone; Manfred Man; Pete Townshend; John Fogerty; Annie Lennox; and many more. So the question is, how does Angelina Jordan come closer to the original than the other 194 great artists?
    She did it by going back to the source; Jay Hawkins himself. Her arrangement of music and lyrics honor Jay's work as close as possible, albeit by being performed by a tiny barefooted 9 year old girl.
    You can see her change up her performance on the fly. The notes she scribbles down at the beginning of the video are the lyrics she’s chosen to use, and you can see her referring to during the performance. Singing is simply organic to her and she performs most of her covers in the first take. The candle she holds in the beginning has a picture of Jay on it, honoring (or perhaps channeling) him.
    "I PUT A SPELL ON YOU" (black and white studio performance from Angelina's cover channel) - ruclips.net/video/nwFloCPXzCs/видео.html

    Thank you both for reacting to this awesome performance by Angelina Jordan Astar (her full name) honoring the legend Freddie Mercury (RIP) with her own rendition of this iconic song.
    Angelina, the Barefoot Angel, has 180+ cover, rehearsal, and original videos on RUclips, Republic Records website, IG, TikTok, Facebook, Norway's TV2. She signed a contract with Republic Records on 2020 at 14 years old. According to her family, Republic Records will not introduce her worldwide until she finishes high school.
    We are fortunate to enjoy her videos from 1.5 yo till now at 16 yo on her two RUclips channels and her grandma's YT channel:
    "Angelina Jordan Official Channel"
    "Angelina Jordan Cover Channel"
    "Angelina Jordan Fanclub Mosarz."
    I suggest reading her bio on Google and Republic Records website for a heartwarming story why she appears barefoot on her public performances.
    Congratulations to both for discovering a once-in-a-lifetime artist.

    Not only did Angelina get the golden buzzer from judge Heidi Klum, but she also received huge praise from the remaining members of the legendary Queen. Queen were delighted with Angelina's arrangement and shared it on Twitter with the words "WOW, what a rendition". What was unfortunately not to be seen here, all four judges came on stage to congratulate Angelina (very rarely). Simon said to Angelina "I'm not sure if you know how good you are, seriously" 👣 💯 *AJ* 💯 👣 BTW, Angelina released her version of Bohemian Rhapsody on January 24th, 2020 under her own label ANGELINA JORDAN INC. shortly after Angelina celebrated her 14th birthday. 🤗🤗

    Congratulations! You just discovered the best Vocal Artist on the Planet! IMO This opinion is quickly being reinforced as her career is finally starting to I believe explode. I'm surprised there are still many who know nothing about her but again I think that is going to change. If you want to hear music listen to anyone. If you want to feel it listen to Angelina. You have a lot of catching up to do if you decide to follow this girl and it would be a mistake in my opinion not to. Not just a great artist but an even greater Human Being! Hang on. Her angels will soon fill you in on her incredible journey & accomplishments
    When you react to Bohemian Rhapsody take notice during her performance they highlight audience members in the front row. That is Angelina's Family. From left to right Her uncle and manager Michael Astar, her little sister Juliette, her mother Sarah Astar and her grandmother Mery Zamani. Notice her little sister crossing her fingers as the performance starts and later her mother wipe tears from her eyes. Also remember she said she had waited 10 years to sing for Simon. When she was 3 years old she was begging her mother to go on 'that Simon show'. A child prodigy who started singing Whitney Houston at 1 & 1/2, Won Norways Got Talent at 8 yrs old singing Billy Holiday's 'Gloomy Sunday', 'I'm a Fool to Want You' a cappella, 'Bang, Bang' by Nancy Sinatra and 'Summertime' by George Gershwin!
    She fulfilled one of her childhood wishes when she sang for the Nobel Peace Prize Concert at 8, her second wish that you soon watch was to sing for that 'Simon Show" that she expressed at 3 yrs old when she sang on America's Got Talent 'The Champions' at 13 yrs old singing the most beautiful rendition of Bohemian Rhapsody ever created! She has sung for Quincy Jones & Barak Obama among many others and raised millions for Children Charities and Climate Change! No theatrics here, simply the most soulful interpretation of a song and an ability to convey that emotion right down to your very soul! She has made many grown men cry! Buckle up, you're going to need it!
    She is 16 as of Jan 10th this year and has just released her second original with Republic Records after being protected to allow her to grow up and when they got a deal that gave her 100 % control over her art. The true GOAT in my opinion! She was 9 when singing a song by Screamin Jay Hawkins on the candle from 1956. ruclips.net/video/nwFloCPXzCs/видео.html She started studying all the Greats of Jazz at 3yrs old on u-tube. What little girl studies Jazz at that age? The one & only Angelina Jordan, The Velvet Voice of the Barefoot princess of Jazz!

    Nice job! I love it, when vocal coaches und or singers take a first look at Angelina.
    For anybody new to her who wants to find out more about her quickly, I created a 'Starter Package' playlist with 10 songs of her from Age 7-16, plus a feature clip, that gets her story quite right. As my previous post with the direkt link got removed, I omit it here, but you can easily find the playlist right at the top of my channel.

    Angelina has opened for a Norah Jones concert, and picking up on AW is good. Angelina was raised on jazz from birth on, but also explored other genres, too. She auditioned for Norway's Got Talent at age 7 with Billie Holiday's "Gloomy Sunday." For this AGT Champions performance, she got Heidi Klum's golden buzzer, putting her straight to the finals where she blew us all away with her rendition of Elton John's "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road." 2022, 16 yo, has been a big year for Angelina Jordan, if you want current. I got here late, so the other "angels" have probably given you many more suggestions 💜

    Thanks for a great reaction to this awesome musical genius, Angelina. She has a number of originals and almost two hundred covers of some of the last century's greatest voices. You literally can not go wrong with any pick, try "Stay" or perhaps " I'm Still Holding Out For You".
    I must say, you two seemed to instantly grasp so much of Angelina and her talents plus the two influences you mentioned were very insightful. Angelina has a few covers of Amy Winehouse and loved her music and she opened for Nora Jones in Korea when she was maybe 10 or eleven. How you identified her roots in jazz so quickly was impressive and although she can sing almost anything and do it with beauty and vocal grace, she started her own musical journey with jazz.

    Angelina’s voice and her total being is like an ocean wave or soft summer breeze that takes you in and rushes you to places you have rarely experienced. Your heart rate increases, you find it difficult to catch your breath, chills and shells engulf you. You are now addicted to Angelina Jordan the finest story telling vocalist I have ever experienced.

    AJ’s Christmas Show that live-streamed on Dec 23 of 22 had some of the most important musicians of our time: Frank Sinatra's drummer for 6 years, and sun in-law of the late Henry Mancini, Greg Field has won 9 Grammys, and the bass player, Chuck Berghofer who also played for Sinatra for 6 years and toured with Barbara Streisand accompanied AJ on her Christmas Show that aired Dec 23 of 21, and they stated that she had the "storytelling ability of the greats, Streisand, Fitzgerald, Vaughan, including Sinatra, to name a few. The main pianist, a five-time nominated for Grammys, Shelly Berg, stated in all his years working with the greatest vocalist, he had never encountered a talent like AJ. Did I forget to mention Jimmy Z, the famous Sax Player who worked with Rod Steward, Etta James, the Eurythmics, and Doctor Dre, was part of the band for the show? Jimmy stated that AJ was the best he has ever played for. Rob Christie Republic Records Studio Director at Universal Music Group Manhattan Beach, California played the guitar, and was the MC of the show. Rob has been working with AJ from the very 1st day Republic signed her at age 14. (I can't list the complete backgrounds on all the band members because it would take several pages to do them justice.)

  • @andyschnell58
    @andyschnell58 Год назад +50

    Thank you for your analysis. The two of you explained so many ways Angelina was impressive in this performance. 13 year old Angelina created the arrangement then delivered a vocal performance for the ages on one of the world's biggest stages. Angelina is easily the most accomplished child vocalist of all time as my biography of her will help to explain and she is an even better person than singer.
    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.
    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 “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.
    Personally, Angelina as a great human being and her music came into my life when I needed it most. Her music has improved the quality of my life more than I can express. I now introduce her to as many people as I can, with the hope her music will do the same for others. We know once her family believes the time is right and allows Republic Records to fully promote her, she will become the superstar she has always dreamt and believed she would be.
    I encourage others to use this biography to help educate others about the love, empathy, magic and beauty that is Angelina Jordan Astar and her unique music.

As well as her brilliant version of Elvis’s “Suspicious Mind”. My personal favorite is her cover of Lana Del Rey's "Born To Die". Although “Mercy” is really growing on me.

    Wow you guys, great reaction! You clearly know your voice technique, and gave a nice analysis! I think Angelina is the singer's singer. By that I mean that she employs so many different techniques, dynamics and ornaments in her performances that you would need to know a bit about singing to appreciate it. Angelina always does it so tasteful too, never overcooked. As you hear more of her you'll find that she adapts her style to the message and style of each song she does. From the top of my head, she's done Jazz (she's the QUEEN of jazz!), blues, soul, country, folk, RDM, pop, rhytm'n'blues, and even a smidge of rap.
    Hope you'll do more AJ, there's plenty to choose from.

    A couple of quick stories. You mentioned Amy Winehouse and Nora Jones (everybody mentions Amy) Angelina opened for Nora Jones at a music festival in South Korea in front of 40,000 people. She had finished her set and the crowd was calling for her, so Nora asked her to go back out. And when she was ten, Angelina performed at a charity concert in New York. A tutor was brought in to keep her up on her school work, and he asked her how she could be so calm with the concert that night. "Aren't you nervous?" She didn't know what he meant. He spent half an hour trying to explain what nervous was. She didn't understand. She literally does not know what nervous is. Angelina has said that she can't wait to get on stage and once she is there, she doesn't want to leave.

    Also are mashups of Angelina with either original artist or instrumental band. Some are truly incredible. Examples include:
    ---- Ain’t No Sunshine [Angelina was 12 years-old. This is Bill Withers classic 1971 R&B hit. Musicians Hank Roberts (great cello), Brian Wilson (drums), Mike Stark (piano) and Anna Coogan (guitar) originally performed song for singer Canen. Mashup was created using Angelina’s simple cover and band making fantastic composition: ruclips.net/video/JyziJiJ1HYg/видео.html]
    ---- Crazy (as 12-year old, Angelina sung song live at 2018 Kongsberg Jazz Festival. Mashup of Festival audio and two rehearsal videos with some of best audio/video editing that you will witness and makes it truly look like rehearsal of this Patsy Cline/Willie Nelson 1961 hit country song. Amazing: ruclips.net/video/RI9s_Qp7X_g/видео.html)
    ---- I Will Survive (This 1978 disco hit by Gloria Gaynor is mashed with Angelina’s audio-only track. Whenever 35-year old Gloria is shown, she is singing. Whenever 10-year old Angelina is shown, she is singing. Close eyes and literally tough to tell any difference. Mind-blowing: ruclips.net/video/Nryuk21mXkQ/видео.html)
    ---- Easy On Me (Angelina was 15-years old when she released cover video of Adele’s latest hit song from 2021. This mashup combines Angelina’s cover and snipets of Adele’s official video of song plus video-only pieces of 9-year old Angelina performing I Put A Spell On You and few frames of Angelina and her grandmother Mery from studio recording of I'm A Fool To Want You by 11-year old Angelina for her album It’s Magic. Tough to tell difference between Angelina’s and Adele’s voices: ruclips.net/video/OXtRa4FlhMM/видео.html)
    ---- Back To Black (mashup remix of 10-year old Angelina’s cover video of Back to Black done with KORK orchestra and Amy Winehouse’s Back to Black music video. Snipets of Amy singing compared with Angelina’s voice makes them seem like duplicates of each other: ruclips.net/video/Ly82w_iIrh4/видео.html)
    ---- All Of Me (Angelina was 13-years old. This mashup shows how Angelina pays homage and is true to original song. Combines Angelina’s home video recording with sophisticated music video of John Legend playing piano and singing his smash hit song with violinist Lindsey Stirling playing accompaniment. Mashup creates virtual duet that seems like it is original recording of Angelina singing duet with John Legend: ruclips.net/video/i0rSKumJE8s/видео.html)
    ---- Stay (mashup of 12-year old Angelina with 24-year old Rihanna and 27-year old Mikky Ekko using song’s original backing track. Vocally cannot tell there is a 12-year age difference. This piano ballad about a relationship was co-written by songwriter Mikky. The song became Rihanna’s 27th million-seller: ruclips.net/video/OgrCIURzpyo/видео.html)

    ---- House Of The Rising Sun (Originally 1930s folk song. Most famous version by The Animals in 1964 when became hit. Angelina slows it downs. Jazzy with emotions while playing electric guitar in short version: ruclips.net/video/VQsRqVexLCI/видео.html)
    ---- Endless Love (Famously sung by Diana Ross and Lionel Richie at 54th Academy Awards in 1982. Released in 1981 and became a hit. As 15-year old, short version sung by Angelina with piano: ruclips.net/video/VWuU4jMKqLw/видео.html)
    ---- Fields Of Gold (Written in 1993, one of most famous songs by Sting. Not big commercial success, this modern ballad covered by many artists. As 15 year-old, short version by Angelina with simple guitar is wonderful: ruclips.net/video/4WwJHHxxHVk/видео.html)
    ---- Love Is A Game (This is on Adele’s fourth studio album, 30, released in 2021 following her divorce from Simon Konecki. Song itself refers to how she is ready to love again after her divorce and hints at her relationship with new boyfriend, sports agent Rich Paul. As 15-year old, short version by Angelina with piano sounds like recorded in studio rather than at home: ruclips.net/video/PXbYrvP3v4I/видео.html)
    ---- Can’t Help Falling In Love With You (This 1961 song by Elvis Presley was on his Blue Hawaii album. Melody was based upon French love song “Plaisir d’amour” that was written in 1784. As 15-year old, short version with Angelina walking down sidewalk while singing song a cappella: ruclips.net/video/aJ2B-NWWsy0/видео.html)
    ---- Crazy (Written by Willie Nelson. Became Patsy Cline’s signature hit country music song in 1961. In 1996, Patsy’s version became most played song in jukeboxes in US and in 2003, was inducted into National Recording Registry. As 16-year old, posted her singing song at night in her room sounding studio quality, and is one of best covers of song you will ever hear: ruclips.net/video/Vjc0riTGiGU/видео.html)
    ---- Goodbye Yellow Brick Road (Ballad on Elton John’s seventh studio album of same name released in 1973. On Rolling Stone’s list of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time. As 16-year old, stunning cover singing song in her room playing piano: ruclips.net/video/RLfzGjYuiMc/видео.html)
    ---- Sign Of The Times (mashup of short cover by 15-year old Angelina with snipets of Harry Styles singing his hit song on his BBC produced TV show Harry Styles At The BBC. This creates a virtual duet that is mind-blowing as one really is given impression that they are singing duet together. Is only 2 minutes long and thus not complete song: ruclips.net/video/8glJLHUd7uo/видео.html)

    Enjoyed your reaction and analysis . Always good to see more of us Aussies discovering Angelina, I feel most people will be suggesting the black and white version of "I put a spell on you " age nine and that is totally a mind blowing way to go. ruclips.net/video/nwFloCPXzCs/видео.html. I also get blown away by her version of this song at age 11 I find it easier on my ears and interesting to see her maturing voice and techniques. ruclips.net/video/qrZLjJ3VBZg/видео.html. ( her singing starts at the 4:38 point of this video) Might make an interesting comparison video for vocal coaches.

    Fellow Aussie here, have just subscribed, really enjoyed your breakdown and analysis of Miss Angelina Jordan 👍 I have been a musician and music lover most of my 60 odd years on this planet, and have found in Angelina a absolute gift to music. I am certain she will become a powerhouse in the industry, bringing back the integrity and soul which seems to be missing in a lot of modern music. Strongly suggest starting by going back close to the beginning of her journey, a 9 yr old Angelina putting her own stamp on the Screaming Jay Hawkins classic "I put a spell on you"🥰🥰 ruclips.net/video/nwFloCPXzCs/видео.html

    Thank you for your enthusiastic reaction to Angelina. Your response was not surprising!
    Norwegian born Angelina began singing at the age of one and a half, and by age three was listening to jazz and classics legends on repeat. Her grandmother was her greatest influence, but Angelina chose her own path. Her first studio performance was at age 7, singing I Who Have Nothing. She won Norway's Got Talent at the age of only 8, singing old time classics from Billie Holliday and George Gershwin, and became the youngest ever vocalist to win an international Got Talent Show! She also went viral on America's Got Talent the champions in 2020 with her unique version of Bohemian Rhapsody. Angelina sings in English which unbelievably is her third language! She is a true prodigy.
    She is now 16, and has recorded a huge library of songs, including covers and several originals. A major attraction to Angelina's music is the emotion and attitude she conveys, although she has not experienced the life events! She is known as the barefoot princess of 1,000 voices as she can adjust her tone, style, and register for any song or genre. She was signed by Republic Records over a year ago. She is not widely promoted yet, however, as her family has decided to wait until she graduates school, so she has a normal childhood. Here is a link from ages 6 to 16 to all her 165 chronological performances, including five originals.

    Why does Angelina sing barefoot?
    When she was 6 years old, she was in the Middle East with her mom and grandmother and they came across a young orphan girl with no shoes and scarred feet. Angelina gave the girl her own shoes and has forever performed barefoot as a reminder of all those less fortunate. At age 9 she wrote a book about this experience, Between two Hearts, becoming the youngest ever published author in Norway. She also has helped raise millions for children's charities. She is a special individual, and one you cannot follow without developing an emotional bond.
    Angelina penetrates hearts because she is humble and has compassion for humanity. Her stated goal from childhood was to sing for the world and spread love and peace. I trust this will cause you to embrace her as millions of others have, and that you will continue down the rabbit hole from which you will not want to escape. Peace and love.

    Angelina has amazing flexibility as can be witnessed by the following songs:
    ---- Shield [as 12-year old, Angelina co-wrote song. As 12-year old, sung on very popular Scandinavian talk show Skavlan (2.5 to 3 million viewers per show): ruclips.net/video/lQtUbVKb0vs/видео.html]
    [In interview (changes to English at about 0:36 mark) before Angelina sung, paraphrasing, she said that when she sings she goes into endless other world that is full of happiness. She said that song is about someone you love and whose strong love protects you wherever you are. Angelina said song's sound was inspired by Bond films. Her favorite Bond film songs are Diamonds Are Forever and Goldfinger. She sings few bars of Diamonds Are Forever a cappella. She said that highlight of her career was singing for Quincy Jones' 85th birthday concert in London. When asked if she feels like she is 12 years old, Angelina says she only does when she looks at her passport: ruclips.net/video/97hjWg4ToRQ/видео.html]
    [as 13-year old, sung in artistic video directed by her maternal grandmother Mery Zamani: ruclips.net/video/m8OCbAlr_48/видео.html. As 13-year old, sung on 7/12/2019 at outdoor concert at Prøysenhuset, Rudshøgda, Norway: ruclips.net/video/whH6fnKAooo/видео.html. As 12-year old, sung in club-like venue with same band used for 2018 Kongsberg Jazz Festival: ruclips.net/video/9sYypd1yGR4/видео.html]
    ---- I'm Still Holding Out For You (a few days before turning 11-years old, Angelina recorded this demo. This was a cover of Baby FuzZ song. Baby FuzZ was also known by the stage name Sterling Fox. He is Brandon Lowry who has written and produced multiple songs for others including Lana Del Ray, Britney Spears, Avicii, Adam Lambert and Madonna. Angelina’s people did not allow the release of the song because they thought it to be the wrong stylistic choice for her. Baby FuzZ never heard Angelina’s demo until years later. This is a “leaked” version of the song Angelina recorded which at first was blocked by Angelina’s people for fear of copyright infringement issues, but Baby FuzZ really liked the demo and allowed it to stay up on RUclips: ruclips.net/video/Dv8mjCh5iiE/видео.html)
    ---- Above The Water [sung by Angelina as 13-year old, and shows her incredible cross genre abilities. She collaborated with Norwegian EDM (Electronic Dance Music) duo TRXD and recorded vocals for song. Amazing unofficial video was created that added some footage of shuffle dancers doing variations of Melbourne Shuffle to the song: ruclips.net/video/y6SilwnR2Zc/видео.html]
    [TRXD is Truls Dyrstad and David Atarodiyan where TRXD represents their names (TRuls X David). In 2020, song was released as audio only track and since has millions upon millions of plays on streaming services. Melbourne Shuffle originated in Melbourne, Australia, in underground rave scene. Although not exactly known when Melbourne Shuffle was developed (probably in mid to late 1980s), it supposedly was first shown publicly in TV interview by Ruppert Keller in 1990. Dance eventually took off and has become very popular in mainstream EDM festival scene, practiced by millions of EDM fans all over world. EDM is so popular that there is a website dedicated to news about it. This song would be played by disc jockeys at a dance location as rave means a lively party or gathering involving dancing and drinking. This 3-hour video New Year Mix 2022 - Best of EDM Party Electro House & Festival Music gives you an excellent look at EDM and the millions of people who love it: ruclips.net/video/gQlUknjUX0I/видео.html]
    ---- I Will Survive (as 10-year old, Angelina again hits it out of the park, in another new music genre: disco! This is only disco song to win Grammy. In 2016, Library of Congress deemed Gloria Gaynor's original recording to be "culturally, historically, or artistically significant" and selected it for preservation in National Recording Registry: ruclips.net/video/ma7sa_n7k-8/видео.html)
    ---- Song For A [as 13-year old, Angelina sung with music by modern classical composer Nico Cartosio. It can be described as musical poetry. Lyrics come from poem by Robert Burns. Song was written specifically for Angelina as part of mostly instrumentals album Melting (8 instrumentals plus Song For A). Album was recorded at famous Abbey Road studio and released in April 2019: ruclips.net/video/Bo3mhxPM-uA/видео.html]

    I enjoyed your technical analysis, and you’ll see that Angelina has an amazing vocal toolkit that she can dive into so easily. Sometimes her singing is more technical than at other times, but what you always get with Angelina is gorgeous interpretation of lyrics and musicality. She arranges her own material, and frequently it is as unique and beautiful as you just heard. It’s really impossible to describe how good she is-you just have to listen to her. How good? Pick any song, any genre, at any age. She’s been singing in front of audiences since she was 7, and she stunned everyone then and since.
    As you look at her songs, you’ll see that Angelina covers the best singers singing their best songs. Many times you will like her version better, but you will never be disappointed. Angelina is easily the best popular singer I’ve ever heard. She’s now 16, and her voice is mesmerizing. Try her cover of Elvis’s Suspicious Minds to hear her now and understand her amazing musicality and artistry.

    Sarah, Angelina makes her own clothes including that Pantsuit. The design is her Grandmother's art transferred to fabric. Angelina also does her own musical arrangements. By the way, she is also known as the barefoot princess as when she was 6 she vowed to perform barefoot until every child in the world has shoes. 👗👗👠👠😉😉💓💓
