Angelina is so sweet. I can tell that she is very happy and with a little help from Toby, she can talk too! Bad Valentine is too good, and I can understand that Toby was at point zero for a while. But to start his own record label, just to release ''his'' songs was the best option. And here we are.
Thank you Chris, it's so nice to hear Angie and see her so comfortable with these great artists, our little girl is quickly turning into a confident and very talkative singer too. What a treat it must have been to be there! 💛🧡❤
Hi Chris 👋 my friend thanks for the great Life video Quality and Töne 👍👌👏! I'm looking forward to your and James' compilations of the 21 songs from this spectacular phenomenal Angelina Concert with the Awesome Jimmy Z' 🎷Scott Hoying Rob Christie and Toby Gad and the Amazing Band 🎺🎸🎹🎷🎻🥁😊! Thanks for sharing this great video Chris 👍👌! Love 💖 and peace ☮️✌️and kindness 😀 from little beauty Switzerland 🇨🇭🇨🇭🇨🇭 👋🙋♂️! God 💥 protect 🙏Angelina always 😊! Spread Love 💖 ❤️❤️🔥 all day! Roger aka Röschu outside 😊! PS : THANKS CHRIS FOR THE INFORMATION IN THIS VIDEO Now I finally know the backstory so everything suddenly makes more sense 🤔😀😉! Thank you a thousand times for the support, my fellow angel 😇 from Angelina!! our jazz queen👸 and angel 😇! on her two You Tube channels 🙏 You will boost the algorithm! and your👍👌 as well as Angelina's subscribers 👍👌! Thanks 🙏? She deserves it a thousand times over 😀!
Wow, what a story. Added later: I have been thinking that Angelina has been going through some real difficulties in recent years. There was the death of her grandfather, then her grandmother getting diagnosed with cancer and going through 2 years of treatment (do I have that right?), and the period of estrangement from Toby Gadd, and finally her father divorcing her mother, though I assume that had developed over many years. And all of the problems except with Gadd directly effected all the people close to her, so she had to deal with that too. But lately she seems to have gotten into a much better place in her life and attitude.
That was an amazing story. Thank you so much Chris for sharing such interesting and meaningful information with us. That video will be part of Angelina s life story.
What an amazing backstory. I can definitely understand Toby frustration back then. BV is so amazing to be left out with. Although Angelina told before that she chose the song for the EP maybe BV is not one of the choices presented to her by the label company.
..yes but specifically as Toby said BV is one of the best songs he wrote/co-written in a long time and Universal Republic head also told it's the best song Angelina recorded. It's a little cute that Toby and AJ never talk for more or less a year because of that. And I think it made their artists to artist relationships more stronger. And I'm assuming that the song THANK YOU they debuted at the concert is part of the 8 songs they did 2 years ago.😉
I think so yeah. It fits in a way. Say with good in Goodbyes, All my fault. But the overall messaging is very different. Angie's darker lyrics on the EP were more like a means to an end, like lessons learned, emotions felt, as she found wisdom, strength, direction, happiness and confidence. BV would have been on it's own in that way.
Most of us had heard the story behind the song from Toby’s interview. What we didn’t know is that it kind of caused a temporary rift between Toby and Angelina. I’m sure the intent was to use the songs that she recorded with Toby when the plan was to release an album. Somewhere along the way it was decided to release an EP instead. Whose’s decision this was and why is something else we really don’t know. When the EP was released she did say that she herself chose the songs. If that’s true then it was her decision not to include Bad Valentine or any of the other songs she and Toby worked on. Now it may not have been her decision alone. Again we don’t know. It also makes one wonder if there may be other songs recorded with other producers that are still unreleased.
Quite right, but the radio interview only scratched the surface. The interviewer wasn't really familiar with the circumstances and didn't dig deeper. Plus she probably had no idea which singer he was talking about. I can understand that he was extremely disappointed at first, but he's an excellent songwriter and knows the business. If he's listened to Old Enough then he'll have noticed straight away that Bad Valentine doesn't really fit into the story arc. But it's interesting that he was the one who buried the hatchet.
Now we know Angelina is the GATEKEEPER of her song release since she was signed by Republic Records and RR acts like an observer instead of a promoter, they dont want to go down with Angelina if her song release doesnt work.
Thanks thanks again Chris for this. I love when Angelina just stands there and talks with Toby and some of the other people. By the way Chris what was your take away from this you've been to quite a few of her concerts what did you think overall about this concert?
For now I’ll say that the first concert I saw in Kingsberg in 2022 is still #1 because the other concerts all have had issues with sound and the band that were not issues at Kongsberg. And I did feel that the sound overall was a step back from Vegas, at least from where I was sitting. Still, many superb performances and some great surprises. Her new song “What am I to You,” wow! Tears came. The duet, “My Way,” “Rather Go Blind,” all great! Overall it vies for second place with Vegas for me.
That's really cute. Poor Toby. She even missed the big hug he was after after this story now too 🤦♂️. A bit sad this story, it more just didn't work out. Nothing against the song, but I can see her thinking, or the label thinking it didn't fit her nor her EP. Now it worked out.
The business side of music. Is this the way others take this backstory? Toby writes numerous (say 5 songs, including Bad V) with AJ. “They” don’t use any of them for the EP. 😮 Toby then thinks to himself, what are my assets, former hits! He creates the diaries, and thinks, I’ll offer AJ an opportunity to sing this former big hit, (when things weren’t cozy with them) and then she will agree to sing Bad Valentine under his new label Kite. It was a leveraged move by Toby, smart! Since he was kicked to the curb before. ??
No professional videographer that we know of. None of her recent concerts have had professional videographers. Fans take cell phone videos and clean them up the best they can.
@@pjg58x @fscott1134 may well be right. There was a woman? with very professional shoulder-mounted equipment at the foot of the stage in one video and behind the band in a different performance.
She should have had this concert professionally videotaped and given to Netflix. It would have made her an immediate international star. To say nothing of the revenue it would have provided for her! Her management team is truly worthless!
Angelina is so sweet. I can tell that she is very happy and with a little help from Toby, she can talk too! Bad Valentine is too good, and I can understand that Toby was at point zero for a while. But to start his own record label, just to release ''his'' songs was the best option. And here we are.
Their PR should be stepping up
Great story! I can't imagine either why the label didn't include BV in the EP...
But thankfully it's been released now! what a GREAT SONG! 🥰
I don't think it quite fit the theme or what Angelina wanted to say on her first release.
Thank you Chris, it's so nice to hear Angie and see her so comfortable with these great artists, our little girl is quickly turning into a confident and very talkative singer too. What a treat it must have been to be there! 💛🧡❤
What you say is very true... she is growing artistically by leaps and bounds... ¡¡¡

She looks amazing, absolutely beautiful and majestic.

Hi Chris,thanks for this.
Thanks, Chris. Very interesting story indeed 🙂
Thanks😀😀😀😀😀
WoW Angelina !!!! Qué maravilla, es algo precioso, fuerte... Gracias a lxs dos !!!
That was an amazing story. Thank you so much Chris for sharing such interesting and meaningful information with us. That video will be part of Angelina s life story.
She stated it was her breakup song
Love. It
Thanks Chris, we now know a little more about their falling out, even if it remains a bit of a mystery.
What an amazing backstory. I can definitely understand Toby frustration back then. BV is so amazing to be left out with. Although Angelina told before that she chose the song for the EP maybe BV is not one of the choices presented to her by the label company.
It’s not just Bad Valentine. They had recorded 8 songs. That’s what probably really made it disappointing for Toby. None of the 8 were released.
..yes but specifically as Toby said BV is one of the best songs he wrote/co-written in a long time and Universal Republic head also told it's the best song Angelina recorded. It's a little cute that Toby and AJ never talk for more or less a year because of that. And I think it made their artists to artist relationships more stronger. And I'm assuming that the song THANK YOU they debuted at the concert is part of the 8 songs they did 2 years ago.😉
I believe I know why Angelina didn't want it to be part of the EP. We all know the EP forms a story.
I think so yeah. It fits in a way. Say with good in Goodbyes, All my fault. But the overall messaging is very different. Angie's darker lyrics on the EP were more like a means to an end, like lessons learned, emotions felt, as she found wisdom, strength, direction, happiness and confidence. BV would have been on it's own in that way.
@@ryanjacob3338 It's like The EP comes first then BV is 1 year later, when she realises she is the BV. So putting it in the EP seems like a big jump.

I agree, there is a lot we still don't know about exactly what happened
Now we know Angelina is the GATEKEEPER of her song release since she was signed by Republic Records and RR acts like an observer instead of a promoter, they dont want to go down with Angelina if her song release doesnt work.
Very interesting ... glad they patched things up.

@BigAngieFan808 thanks for the input Chris. You and James are putting together some real good videos. By the way how long have you lived in Hawaii?
@@robertfennell5232 since 1960, except for the 80’s when ai lived in California, mostly LA. And I lived for a year in Spain on two separate occasions

The audio on these cell phone vids is just awful. Wasn’t there a professional videographer there?
I expect Jim Thiel will improve the audio when he assembles videos of the concert.

She should have had this concert professionally videotaped and given to Netflix. It would have made her an immediate international star. To say nothing of the revenue it would have provided for her! Her management team is truly worthless!
