"There will always be room for your hand in mine.!!!" - Ms. Angelina "Magical Barefoot Vocalist & Song Writer" Jordan "We Thank U - Mr. Not Acting"
Her grandfather was very close and he told her and this is why he said when I die sweetheart I’ll be on the moon you’re gonna think I’ll be OK and you can’t see me but I’ll be there. Yes it’s very heavy on so it’s been a 2018 passed away, but it still hurts her and her grandmother got very sick. Thought she gonna pass away but she’s OK. She recovery had a lot of grief
Hey Brandon! I really hope you will not give up on reactions to Angelina due to some fans reactions. For one thing, she deserves to have her music publicly discussed. And secondly, for evey fan who is intentionality nasty or threatening there are thousands who have the whole situation in some semblance of perspective. I think that many fans believe that they know how she would feel or how she would think about any situation and then believe they have to react as they perceive she would want them to. I would offer that she is an intelligent young woman who can fight her own battles as she thinks best. It is hard to see a young child grow up, even in a time compressed way if you are a newer fan, and not feel some protective instinct, more so when she has shared with us of herself in as emotional a way as music. She has done many exceptional and kind things for others in her young life and she touches most of us deeply with her music as well by her humanity, charity, humility, gratitude, and stated desire to spread love and positivity. so it almost seems like we know her as some kind of extended family member even though we don't. So that's where the intensity of some fans responses comes from. Please respond with another positive attribute, grace, and the vast majority of us will as well.
Brandon, I greatly appreciate you took the time to revisit "Million Miles". Hopefully everyone learned how to be respectful with their comments after your first analysis of this highly emotional song. Angelina's grandmother Mery, seems to always be involved with each music video. Mery is a wonderful painter and poet. Angelina is proving herself to be an artist of the highest caliber. Art is subjective and each of us is welcome to our opinions, but we should always be respectful of each other's opinions. I encourage every angel to compose comments which would make Angelina proud.
Angelina is all about Peace & Love. So any individual who's being rude to another individual because of their opinion is not a true fan of Angelina at all.
@@rchad6064As long as people are not being rude , they should be allowed to express their opinion without being unfairly Lambasted . Most reactors invite comments of every description either in agreement or not , it's a public forum that's why there's a reply button .
Angelina Jordan is a young singer who has captivated millions of listeners with her soulful hypnotic voice. One of her most emotional performances is the song Million Miles, which she dedicated to her late step-grandfather. In the music video, we see glimpses of her childhood memories with him, such as holding hands and walking together. The contrast between the joyful past and the painful present is heartbreaking. Angelina sings with such sincerity and depth that we can feel her grief and longing for her step-grandfather. It is a beautiful tribute, but also a very difficult one to watch more than once.
I feel he was pretty off in much of his interpretation of this beautiful and very heartfelt song
Target does this all the producing all the directly and they’re dual Norwegian producers famous they do Ariana Grande they do they do they do they do all the singers and shoot on the public records that they are 14 and she got to Las Vegas performance under her belt now they did that and that’s how they wanted to do it so they’re producers and director so they did what they wanted to do. They wanted to do but they discussed with Pearl discussed with Pearl.
Do you have to talk to Straight famous Norwegian producers need all the work from Republic records
Her grandfather is very close. He said I walk the streets together. He walk with her to y’all Norway and give her his advice about life and he said this when I pass, I’ll be on the moon. Don’t worry what you do because you’re gonna be OK are you want me to see me but I know what you know I’m there and she’s also check the very worst Tara Sronce really real they were extremely close save the great inspiration to her. She died in 2018, the first time she try to sing a song she could do that she broke down and cried how to stop the second time she’s gonna be crying, but she made it through.
This is her right she wrote the word yourself and lyrics. Oh region start a producers produce. This is called Stargate. They produce all her music now from her public records. She wrote the lyrics. It’s her own writing, and she went to the studio recording, but she was crying about what you were doing, and they knew they had something special on her to sing a song.
Angelina Jordan is not just a singer with a remarkable voice; she is a miraculous phenomenon that transcends the boundaries of time and space.
Angelina Jordan 17 years old Recognized and admired by world-class musicians, composers and singers (many, many Grammys and Oscars) among them; Alan Walker, Chuck Berghofer, Gregg Field,Jon levine, RED ONE, Dana Farber, Rachel platten, Maize, Shelly Berg, Jimmy Z Zavala, Diane Warren, Rob Christie, Daivid Foster, Laydy Gaga, Gene Simmons, Brian May and Roger Taylor, Quincy Jones, Norah Jones, Mark Ronson, Jonathan Moffet, Nico Cartosio, etc. ...all of those mentioned without exception consider her the best vocalist they have worked with and others the best vocalist of all time.
Republic Record Universal Music, the largest record label, gave her an exclusive studio just for her in Los Angeles Angelina Jordan is her top priority artist: (Ariana Grande, Anitta, Taylor Swift, Wekeen....etc) Her 7 new songs are co-written by Angelina Jordan. , including their latest extraordinary single "Our Time, Acapulco, México
Angelina said in an interview about this video "I love being creative, and I actually sketched the scenes of the music video, which is really cool. The scenes are about memories I had, and going back to flashbacks. I think that the simplicity of the music video makes it really beautiful because it lets the music talk instead. " 👣💯 *AJ* 💯👣
Before I finish watching your reaction and analysis I thought I would add…
Angelina’s early music videos were produced AND directed by her Grandma Mery Zamani. Mery and Angelina are like two people sharing one soul. Mery is the person who introduced Angelina to classic jazz music when she was TWO years old. Angelina has said of her Grandma: “…she’s my inspiration, my best friend, my everything.”
Like Angelina, Mery was a child prodigy, excelling at poetry and art when she was about six.
Angelina also has shared with us that she really enjoyed helping create the story boards with her Grandma for her early music videos. Angelina is THAT involved in the creative process.
Just saw a video in which you asked about Angelina, "is she tall"? Yes, she has been very tall since she was an early teen. Last info I saw was that she is 6'1". She is also thin which makes her visually look smaller than she actually is.
Cole McCarthy is a fabulous cinematographer for Angelina, I believe he has done all the U.S. based filming that was not by either Angelina herself or her artist grandma Mery. I have read that Angelina storyboarded this video.
Hi Brandon. Very interesting analysis. From what I've read, AJ did the story board for this video and AJ and her Grandma Mery actually created the artwork and animation for the lyric video for this. It must have been a healing experience for both of them in dealing with the grief of their loss.
I know that this song and all the videos have helped me in dealing with the loss of my wife of fifty years. Others have had a simlar experience. This is the highest goal of great art and Million Miles has succeeded spectacularly in this.❤
The video is beautiful and you can see her little sister and uncle playing her younger self and her grandfather. Angelina's talent was obviously not acting and I don't think the physical aspect of it necessarily came easily to her, having absolutely mastered the ability to communicate intense and genuine emotion through her voice alone, although her kind eyes have always communicated a lot of that emotion as well. But now her stage presence has really improved to become quite impressive. The musical arrangement of the live studio version is better and more emotional, in my opinion. But man, that song gets to me every time. Most people certainly can relate to it.
I agree, I much prefer the "Live in Studio" performance over this music video.
She's the best female singer/songwriter alive today !!!
My favourite version of this Masterpiece is the Live version in Norway almost 2 years ago, it's slowed down and stunning.
i did appreciate this .... now I know some video editing caution s
Love to hear that! Thank you.
When she sang the studio version I notice she closed her eyes which I think that takes her to a different place in her mind. She sings a lot from her emotional brain. She had candles in the studio. But they still used the same music. There is another version with with art work. I also like the version she sang live in Norway. I didn’t think I would like that version because it was so slow down, & different instruments, but it was really fantastic! She collaborates with her Director, which I think is between her grandmother and her uncle. I have no doubt she is really singing the words a cappella for the video.
Hello Brandon and welcome back to Angelina. There is so much you have missed! I enjoyed your insightful comments regarding the video and Angelina's part in it. Yes she was involved in creating the video as she is in the arrangements of all of her vocal performances. Her talent goes far beyond singing.
All of your comments were well taken and I can see the validity in each one. The only critique that I have is that in any art, with this being an example, all is subjective. There are so many acting directors and producers that if you show them a video, each would have different thoughts on pros and cons. So any positives or negatives you outlined during your presentation would likely generate different opinions from different directors. My opinion is that it is not black and white. No criticism whatsoever, just my thoughts. Peace out.
On the hallway she’s looking at her grandfather picture of the past. We are in 2018 that’s what the song about. You know that whoever pictures of his shoes and shorts and put it up it’s all about Angelina Jordan wrote the lyrics for sale Stargate no Norwegian burger producers did the song for her
I enjoyed your reaction; just to say please don't be bothered by fans who make uncalled for negative comments... they are just overzealous... most of us appreciate what you do.
❤❤❤
Cool stuff... She was a skinny kid while making a music videos. Really good considering that. She is going to do incredible music with awesome videos now that she's professionally handled. I'm looking forward to her awesomeness emerging like a beautiful butterfly 🦋!🙏
No doubt!
Thanks for the reaction. They must really have taken your video editing critique to heart, cuz in the ‘Now I’m the Fool” video they did a really good job of hiding her overlapping lines.
She had said it was hard to get through, thinking of her grandfather.
Hi Brandon! I feel you've given an even-handed analysis of the music video. I happen to like it a little more than the studio version myself. In particular, the shot of her standing beside the empty shoes is so haunting. Angelina's stagecraft was often a sore point in the past, but she's really improved in the last couple years. Great reaction!
💕💕👍
Assista a uma apresentação só vivo na noruega onde ela canta essa musica lindamente
This came out shortly after my Dad passed away! TEARS!!
Thanks for your technical analysis. As a layperson who just appreciates good music snd talent i look at the videos differently. . They are not my focus.
Hi Brandon!
Thank you for your reaction/analysis. I totally agree.
I'm an ANGELina -fan, but I'm not fanatical..,.. :P
I heard/saw this song first through the lyrics-video, a very Artsy/dreamy animated thing. Loved it❣ It also helped me immensly in a period of my life, loosing several people close to me, and dealing w grief. I was at first a bit disappointed in the style of the video, but it has grown on me. However, I feel that people totally new to ANGELina, might not get "her".. Anyhow, I find it much much better than the "Shield" video.... even for me that's a total miss, unfortunately.
Have a wonderful, joyous and magical 2024 ✨✨✨✨🌟
Greetings from Arctic Lo-Ve Islands, Norway
Enjoyed
Angelina sings to express, not to impress. Nevertheless she does both, gloriously!
IMO, it is the closest to Method Acting in that she livescthe experience she emotes, rather than emulating or mimicking it.
Love your reactions Brandon. Again PLEASE clean lint off your Mic cover!!!
Those are my friends. I have named them all bob. Except the one near the front. That one's Theodora. ...she's a bit of a diva but we lover her anyway.
I would be interested in you reacting to Morgan James, live version of “Bring Yourself to Me, Chateau …”
Für mich ist das Musikvideo perfekt, denn es transportiert ❤.
Davvero un'ottima reazione e un commento critico alla regia assolutamente centrato. Da profano avevo persino io notato quella sfumatura sbagliata. Lo stacco andava messo in corrispondenza della sovrapposizione delle voci.
Grazie per la tua lucida critica costruttiva.
My favourite version of this song has always been the first one, the lyric video, because of the amazing use of Grandma Mery's beautiful artwork, but also because of that precise moment you highlighted at the end of your reaction. For me, the "we're a million miles apart" coming in *underneath* those high notes soaring into the ether is an emotional knife to the heart, an effect that is not possible in all the live and concert versions, good though they are. I was holding my breath for a bit there when I knew you were going to discuss that moment in the video, until I knew it was the visual presentation that was the issue. I completely agree with what you said.
I always love your reactions and Angelina’s singing
Great Reaction, always love your perspective on these video's vice just the vocal performances, helps gain knowledge of what's happening
I appreciate that
you could have react to tje 2 live versions (2022) wich are amazing !
Great, thanks! From the time she was little, singing for Angelina has been about her inner world. Whether it's cerebral or emotional she was focused on creating the sounds she wanted. This was still obvious in her first 'live in studio' for Republic - "Million Miles"! The process of learning to deliver acting along with her vocals has been slow, but I'd love to see you react to "Now I'm The Fool" from her EP released last summer ("Old Enough"). She's really come a long way!
Tray when she sing You say❤
🎼👍🏼💞🤗
Interesting and not the least bit offensive.
Great catch towards the end but i have to disagree with 1 thing.
I believe her contemplating look was thinking about her grandpa, not the scene.
^This. I think the thousand yard stare she has in several parts of this video reflects the outside world just fuzzing out when you are in the kind of grief of losing someone close.

Angelina Jordan video now I’m the fool
This is a second track off her new album. Enjoy
I’m sorry for the negative comments you got. You really don’t need to give them that much time.
My reaction to your analysis of this video is that I’m here for Angelina’s singing-and you’re here to critique the technical aspects of the music video. I love the studio version because I see Angelia singing. I feel the emotion of the lyrics through her voice and her facial expressions. In this video, that’s lost to me. There’s clearly no intent to make it look like lip synching. It’s a very nice visual tribute to her grandfather, and I surely don’t mean to denigrate that, but I think Angelina is the best singer I’ve ever heard. Trying to embellish her singing with visuals just isn’t necessary for me.
I get it that you’re an acting coach, but I get exactly what I need from Angelina by watching her sing. I’ll admit I love her video of Suspicious Minds, but there’s a completely different vibe going on there.
Lovely comment. Thank you.
One of my pet peeves is reactors NOT playing Angelinas videos to the END.....also that was the moon, not the sun....not picky...just bothered.
But they started, and I didn’t know Kathy was beginning to end one shot one take thought it was whatever it is that’s what it was a one take
Pictures of her grandfather who passed away in 2018 what songs about he’s Japanese Ramos are her father is Swedish
OK it’s just on Republic records with the people to produce this there’s no Region producers republic regular call Stargate they want to edit it. They mixed it the process and that did you know she would’ve been 14 right 17 and do with Norwegian producers and mixes producer for her working with
Lo
I don’t uncle Michael little sister, forming in front of the house representing her
I had a great deal of difficulty watching this entire reaction/analysis due the the unprofessional amount of crud on your microphone. Meant as a critical suggestion in the kindest way possible. 😉
The one biggist criticism i have for your analysis is you are looking at this way too much as a commercial acting production . I assure you this is not, what you see is how Angelina feels , she is not acting in any sense of the word.
I must humbly disagree. You actually defined acting pretty well - at least partially - with, "what you see is how Angelina feels." That, my friend, is acting.
@tnae ok so if I or anyone cry at a funeral of a loved one because he or she feels profound sadness, according to you it would be accurate to describe him or her as being a good actor? I think 99.999% of people will strongly disagree
This is my least favorite version of this song of all the videos released. She later slowed it down quite a bit, giving it much more feeling and emotion. Probably the best version was live in Norway a couple summers ago. Watch that one for sure!
I went back and played your reaction to the black & white studio version of Million Miles, and heard you make a negative comment about AJ's high note when she performed Bohemian Rhapsody on AGT. I have watched that performance more that 300 times including reactions, and no one except you, and you are not a vocal coach, made a negative statement about what you called "forcing the high note". I have experienced a number of reactors that feel they have to make a comment, and when AJ performs most are at a loss for words because they are blown away by her hypnotic ability, but there are those who try to look knowledgeable when in fact they are not. Why not post some of your credentials, name some names of those in the spotlight that we would recognize that you have assisted in getting them there.
I think that is uncalled for and rather unkind, Larry... he's a good, interesting reactor and we should relax and just allow him his say; personally I enjoy his reactions.
@@geoffreynorth9046 Sometimes the truth hurts, and sometimes it is a learning experience. Peace
@@larrypifer1103maybe use your own comment to reflect on yourself, it is really uncalled for
@@pietersbart You sir, are true Oracle of Delphi, and I find your comment analogous to Carian, but in spite of that, you have a glorious day.
@@larrypifer1103 It seems your comprehension skills are at par with your comments.... The obvious meaning of my comment was to reflect on your own comment 'Sometimes the truth hurts, and sometimes it is a learning experience.'
Why be rude when you disagree with someone, why make a point of it at all. Focus on the positivity and things you do agree on. It makes life much brighter and nicer.
❤❤❤
