“ I’m sitting here in shock and awe.“ Welp thank you for putting those words in my mouth because I have no others. None. This knocked me right off my couch. I’m sitting here in a puddle of tears.
This IS the moment. I have held back the hyperbole for several years but now WOW...... this is beyond stupendous. She has proven herself in an category by herself.
This is the way I love Angelina's singing, her whispered, captivating, emotional and timeless voice, which transports me to the past, to the best music my ears have ever heard. Beautiful and spontaneous reaction my friend, congratulations.
WOW I’ve been listening to Angelina for years, I have a lot of health problems, and listening to her sing has got me through a lot of pain. She is so talented, I love this version.
I like all versions of this song, some more than others, but this reimagination of her own song is simply a vocal masterpiece. I often tear up for her performances, but the 1st time I heard this, I burst into tears like I haven't done in 2 1/2 years when she sang My Funny Valentine at 16 in the Antique Store. If this isn't Grammy worthy, then there is no hope for the music industry, IMO. This is her lane & her lane alone!!!
I'm super happy that you got to hear this one as well. It's by far my favorite version of the song, with her performance at SOFAR at second. Thanks for a great reaction! Love from Norway ♥♥♥♥♥
Awesome reaction and this was my 6th version I heard, all being hit worthy! Name me one Artist who can sing the same song in so many different ways that satisfies all genres and is of hit quality! She is a once in a life time talent, God Bless!
It's charting very well so far. In the top ten on iTunes TOP 100 Jazz Singles Chart in the US and Canada, as well as in the UK and France - thogether with timeless classics by Frank Sinatra and Nat King Cole and on par with Lady Gaga's new album. #1 in Norway, Australia and Singapore, #2 in Germany and Denmark, #4 in the Netherlands. PS forgot to mention, it's of course #1 on Norway's iTunes Charts Top 100 Songs (any genre, not only Jazz).
Shakes-P, Wow, Wow, Wow again!!!!!!! I love every version of this song by Angelina, but this has to be the best version for me, my opinion. This has got to be a Masterclass performance and version of this song! It's clear music world, you have to acknowledge The Barefoot Princess has arrived, and is happening now, and is going to take the world by storm, sitting a new path for all to experience, and be in awh of her amazing talent. I could say so much more but I'm now speechless and emotional! It happens to all of us so often experiencing the Heart & Soul reaching Talent of Angelina Jordan, The Bare Foot Princess. Thanks so much Shakes for your amazing reaction, so spot on, and for doing my song Dono. God Bless You, and your Family, and to the Children and Families of Legazpi City Philippines & to The Dare To Dream Foundation By Shakes-P, Peace & Love to all of Angelina's Angels, Tom, from the USA
THE SONG OF THE YEAR! ARE YOU KIDDING ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This was her finest accomplishment up to this point. People listening to the album who may not know Angelina, will listen to this and, AFTER LISTENING TO IT WITHOUT SAYING A WORD OR MOVING A MUSCLE, will blurt out, "What did I just listen to ?" I could care less what else in on the album, this piece of music will be the highlight of the album. Shakes, back in the old days, when there were 45's we collected, one side had the hit record while the flip side had just another song by the same artist. BUT, once in a while the flip side song would be like finding a pearl in a clam and the word would spread out to the masses, "Wait till you hear the flip side! It's great!" Angelina's recording, of course, is not the flip side but I think you know what I mean. When someone plays this album they will raise the needle and know exactly where this song starts and wear the record out! Of course, by know you have played it for yourself several times and in pure Angelina style, it gets better every time you listen to it. "IT'S SPECTACULAR!"
@RobertDeMartin This is not on the Piano Diaries album. The album was released in May. Angelina’s version of If I Were a Boy is on the album. This is a “Piano Diaries” style version of Bad Valentine.
@@Shakes-P You asked for it & Toby heard you so here it is,the music video of Bad Valentine the Jazzy version Piano Diaries th-cam.com/video/vN3YzuX1kkY/w-d-xo.html She is drop dead gorgeous in this video & it's just as classy as our Princess so enjoy brother, I can't wait to see it up on your channel. ✌.
Great reaction Shakes. This is truly a wonderful song performed by a fantastic singer-songwriter who manages to change and improve every time, even in a short time, continually surprising us. The variations in her interpretations of this beautiful song, in these few months, are absolutely incredible and truly brilliant. I love this melancholic jazz version of hers, it's simply out of this world what she can do with her voice, it's totally unreal! I completely short-circuited with this version, she truly stole my soul.💛🧡❤
We need to see Astar singing this in black and white sitting on a piano in a packed jazz club in Manhattan or Harlem, NY, wearing an elegant gown reminiscent of all the great jazz singers of the past!
This version changes the story. The original is more powerful and angry, a beauty is the beast version. This rendition is more melancholic gives a regretful vibe.❤
I agree, of today’s “stars” there are probably very few that can pull something like this off. They are just not that type of singer and don’t have the chops that Angelina has. But unfortunately a lot of the public doesn’t recognize true vocal talent.
Toby personally selected newer, lesser known artists he felt would create something new and special for each song. Actual we find he has known and worked with AJ for several years. They wrote 8 songs in 2022-23. None got included on her EP. He got ticked off and decided to start performing and create his own production company. So far he's used these new tools mainly to showcase this young lady. The 'Mulholland' version is the official one. Spotify has added it to its' Notable release list. I just heard this jazzy version one is #10 is already the Itunes Jazz category.

Wow wow wow . The best version for me. 🔥🔥🔥 Angelina could record an entire album with one song . She's just brilliant ❤❤❤ Thank you for great reaction. 😊
Yes absolutely. I was only a few footsteps away from her two years ago at her concert in Kurbadhagen Norway and the happiness is still here and re-imagined with every Song of her ❤
Toby was talking about his Hits from the past and now re-imagined it with new incredible artists for his piano 🎹 diaries. This is now enrolled for the Grammys in three categories. Finger Cross 🤞 for her first time at the Grammys 🎉 This new song is a part of the second album of piano diaries 🎹
Piano Diaries is Toby Gad's Album where he had newer artists sing his hit songs - Angelina Jordan was chosen to sing If I Were A Boy on that album - on the other hand - Toby Gad is also putting together a 2nd Piano Diaries album with new music which includes Angelina's Jazz Version of Bad Valentine which they co-wrote.
This has already hit #7 on iTunes Top 100 Jazz songs. Currently it's sitting around #11. ALREADY! Angelina says she feels it with this one and might have to start preparring a speech. Its a shame this is NOT on the Piano Diaries project. I checked the album its not there. There will be a video, seen a snip of it.
@Shakes-P The video snip looks black and white. Angelina in a black dress at the side of the piano with back lighting. She looks to have an old time vail that goes down over her eyes but is seethru. I think they are saving to release the vid. I'm excited about this one.
@I_scribbles Toby’s Piano Diaries album was for past hits he had worked on and he started the project sometime last year. The album was released in May. This new jazzy version of Bad Valentine was most likely recorded after the Piano Diaries album was completed.
Hi shakes... I have to tell you that it is a delight to see each one of your reactions... I especially enjoy Angelina Jordan's for obvious reasons... and let me tell you that this is one of your best reactions... and it couldn't be any other way because you are reacting to this wonderful masterpiece... I don't know how many times I have said the word masterpiece, but I think I will have to keep saying it for a long time to keep listening to AJ, our barefoot Princess...
Awesome reaction Shakes. I had the same reaction you did the moment I heard this for the first time. You know it when you experience it... it's. unexplainable....and out of this world. To me, this version of BV for her is THE BREAKTHROUGH! This is true Angelina Jordan with no constraints. Toby Gad had to know it when heard it, just like you, me, and everyone else.
Hello Shakes. I cannot even BEGIN to express how completely brilliant this version is. This deserves to be at the top of every chart in every country in this world. Immediately. And no need to repeat it (for me at least) - I already have it on repeat on Spotify.
@@Shakes-PYes, I said it, and still mean it, about every song on "Old Enough". But you absolutely nailed it when you said that this one is on a whole other level.
Everything we love about Angelina comes out in this beautiful and, I suspect, final version of Bad Valentine. All those gorgeous colors in her magical voice are on display delivering homage to those wonderful jazz singers from the past. All this comes together now in the unique vocals of the one and only Angelina. And, Toby, the piano in the background made this the perfection that it was. Just put this on repeat and your day is done.
In this version, you hear the heartfelt anguish that Angelina must have felt when she pened these words. You can hear the conflict and turmoil to reach this point where she asserts her independence and determination to move on from what must have been a poisonous relationship. While moving on, you sense the pain that lingers longing for what might have been, but will never be. Oh, how we wish that our lives could be different sometimes, but events are what they are, and you must simply move on.😢❤
Hi Robert.... Great explanation. Great seeing you in Glendale. I saw a video that she did this version because we asked for it....I honestly think this was unexpected by her.... can you imagine Toby Gads reaction... what it would have been to be a fly on wall at that moment...
Every song on the album is indeed performed by another artist. All,of me is sung by Scott from Pentatonix. On Angelina’s concert they both performed it together in a duet. Love your dynamic and goals. Gr from member subscribed a long time ago. Love this masterpiece
Wow, excellent, a lot of Magic and Jazz, I should go to the movie "Bad Valentine" with this masterpiece of a song, because this version is more than music, how great you are Angelina, The Best, thank you so much for the reaction, Angelina for always
I wonder what the angels, who only listen to Angelina's incredible covers, have to say about this performance. There is nothing wrong with just listening to what you enjoy most, but everyone should listen to new performances, as the new ones may become a favorite.
Toby Gad has not been nominated "or up" for any Grammy for Piano Diaries yet - he has submitted Piano Diaries for Grammy Consideration - Along with many other submissions - the submissions will be sorted through and from that the Grammy People select who is actually nominated for a Grammy - there are usually 5 nominations for each Grammy Category - if Toby's submission makes it through that process - then we can get excited - but for now - we just have to wait and see.
"I would actually like to re-record these songs with a new generation of singers." Toby Gad on the creation of "Piano Diaries". I don't know if the Angels know his interview about it on SWR1 (probably not, since it's in German and Angelina isn't mentioned? - serach for. “Piano Diaries Toby Gad SWR1”). The audio file is more interesting than the written text. Vocal artists on Piano diaries: All of me (John Legend) - Celina Sharma If I were a boy (BC Jean, then Beyonce) - Angelina Jordan Untouched (The Veronicas) - Johnny Orlando Big girls don’t cry (Fergie) - Victoria Justice Little do you know (Alex & Sierra) - Aloe Blacc & Keke Palmer Who you are (Jessie J) - Louisa Johnson Skyscraper (Demi Lovato) - Camylio Feel good (Daya) - Paravi
This version is currently #7 on the US iTunes Jazz charts. Toby also announced yesterday that Spotify has listed the original version of Bad Valentine on their Notable Releases list. Looks like both versions of the song are getting some recognition.
Nice reaction Shakes! Like what Angelina did with the song My Funny Valentine, Bad Valentine (Piano Diaries) is another song where she goes back with her vocals and uses her Jazz influences and vocals to turn this song in to a jazz masterpiece. Currently, the song is tracking on the iTunes Top 100 Jazz Songs and is sitting at #10 (as of 7:35am PST 10/6/24). It so far has reached a high at #7 What a great song!
Just FYI, the true original version of Bad Valentine is the studio version released a couple weeks ago. It was actually recorded 2 years ago when Angelina was still 16 but was left unreleased. The Hotel Cafe performance was the first live one and fans assumed at the time that the song was brand new. We didn’t know that it was originally recorded in 2022. I think both versions can be successful . One a pop hit and the other a jazz hit.
Yes all the songs on the Piano Diaries album are performed by other artists, not the ones that had the original hit. Although this jazzy version of Bad Valentine is called a Piano Diaries version, it is not on the album. I guess it’s called that because it also has the same minimalistic approach . The Grammy nominations are actually announced next month. The Piano Diaries album has been submitted for consideration in the categories Toby mentioned. We have to wait about a month to see if it did receive any of those nominations.
I've seen a short black & white clip of what looks like it might be a music video. I agree that the still pic helps you focus on the voice and the lyrics. But. I'm REALLY looking forward to the video if the clip is what I think it is. So often I try to close my eyes and soak up Angelina's voice, but I can't. I love watching her performances so much. 🥰
This is such a good reaction Shakes. What a masterpiece. You are so right Shakes. A bit of her different voices from over the years right through this. And a bit of all the Artists voices Angelina has studied longer than her years. I can just see in 10 years, Angelina revisit her most famous songs. Give them a revamp into something amazing, that our minds wouldn't be able to process today.
Hey Shakes, fri night listener and top 100 supporter of AJ. A list I’m starting soon. I love this version, question? Who is the bad Valentine in the song? And why does AJ in a interview say this song will give you confidence? Toby said that Bad Valentine was not included in the EP of last yr, did AJ have a say in that? It seems like an obvious choice? Fyi- I don’t think you’ll mind the promo for Wrapped, they have Michael on today. 🤜 See ya next fri.
this is an absolute banger from Angelina, but my concern is that Angelina is not getting the accolades on spotify it has Toby Gad as the artist very little said about Angelina, This is Angelina's wheelhouse and she must have been the instigator of this arrangement, I am not aware Toby has no history in jazz
@@PatrickWilliams-ou9hu Just the way the industry works. It is Toby's song on his album. She is a featured artist on the album performing this song. Had Angelina distributed the song on Streaming platforms is the only way she is credited with the song!
Angelina covers Angelina. I like the Angelina version.
We got somethin special this time!!
Don't we always though??
Hey Shakes, I said it once and I say it again. The best jazz song of this century, until Angelina comes with another one. Beyond amazing.
Enrique my friend,
This is just sheer Brilliance
❤ she is fire💯💥

Hi shakes... I have to tell you that it is a delight to see each one of your reactions... I especially enjoy Angelina Jordan's for obvious reasons... and let me tell you that this is one of your best reactions... and it couldn't be any other way because you are reacting to this wonderful masterpiece... I don't know how many times I have said the word masterpiece, but I think I will have to keep saying it for a long time to keep listening to AJ, our barefoot Princess...
Super appreciate those kind words! Really,
This 1 hits so different. I am still in awe a few days after my 1st listen!
Awesome reaction Shakes. I had the same reaction you did the moment I heard this for the first time. You know it when you experience it... it's. unexplainable....and out of this world. To me, this version of BV for her is THE BREAKTHROUGH! This is true Angelina Jordan with no constraints. Toby Gad had to know it when heard it, just like you, me, and everyone else.
Hey Lenny,
So good on so many levels. Just wow
Hello Shakes. I cannot even BEGIN to express how completely brilliant this version is. This deserves to be at the top of every chart in every country in this world. Immediately. And no need to repeat it (for me at least) - I already have it on repeat on Spotify.
@@patrickchauharjasingh7164 I feel us Angels say this on every new song drop.. But this 1 just HITS on a completely different level!! 🤜🤛
@@Shakes-PYes, I said it, and still mean it, about every song on "Old Enough". But you absolutely nailed it when you said that this one is on a whole other level.
QUEEN!!!!!!!
Humans havent evolved enough to have any words to describe this
Everything we love about Angelina comes out in this beautiful and, I suspect, final version of Bad Valentine. All those gorgeous colors in her magical voice are on display delivering homage to those wonderful jazz singers from the past. All this comes together now in the unique vocals of the one and only Angelina. And, Toby, the piano in the background made this the perfection that it was. Just put this on repeat and your day is done.
@@boz352 🤜🤛💯
beautifil words... and very true.. ¡¡
In this version, you hear the heartfelt anguish that Angelina must have felt when she pened these words. You can hear the conflict and turmoil to reach this point where she asserts her independence and determination to move on from what must have been a poisonous relationship. While moving on, you sense the pain that lingers longing for what might have been, but will never be. Oh, how we wish that our lives could be different sometimes, but events are what they are, and you must simply move on.😢❤
Hi Robert.... Great explanation. Great seeing you in Glendale. I saw a video that she did this version because we asked for it....I honestly think this was unexpected by her.... can you imagine Toby Gads reaction... what it would have been to be a fly on wall at that moment...
Que genialidad! Por favor!
Every song on the album is indeed performed by another artist. All,of me is sung by Scott from Pentatonix. On Angelina’s concert they both performed it together in a duet. Love your dynamic and goals. Gr from member subscribed a long time ago. Love this masterpiece
@@chris-m2u thank you,
Appreciate you Chris!
Celina Sharma sings "All of Me" on the album, "Piano Diaries".
@@Shakes-P I messed up my comment. English is not my first language. I ment to say also : gr from Belgium
😊😊😊😊thank you
Thank you as well!!
Instant Classic of our beloved Angel ❤
Wow, excellent, a lot of Magic and Jazz, I should go to the movie "Bad Valentine" with this masterpiece of a song, because this version is more than music, how great you are Angelina, The Best, thank you so much for the reaction, Angelina for always
Great reaction she is the best
I wonder what the angels, who only listen to Angelina's incredible covers, have to say about this performance. There is nothing wrong with just listening to what you enjoy most, but everyone should listen to new performances, as the new ones may become a favorite.
Very true. She especially needs her originals and newer music listened too, steamed and downloaded to really advance her career.
This was bananas
The great thing about some going viral,
Its there is ALWAYS a trickle down effect in all other releases! Always
Toby Gad has not been nominated "or up" for any Grammy for Piano Diaries yet - he has submitted Piano Diaries for Grammy Consideration - Along with many other submissions - the submissions will be sorted through and from that the Grammy People select who is actually nominated for a Grammy - there are usually 5 nominations for each Grammy Category - if Toby's submission makes it through that process - then we can get excited - but for now - we just have to wait and see.
Yes my mistake,
She is already a winner in our books lol.
Hope all is well Robert.
This is truely Grammy worthy. It's on#11 of the Jazz chart in the company of Old Blue Eyes.❤❤👣❤❤
Will climb higher and have her sitting around the greats her name deserves to be talked amongst!
@@Shakes-P I dare anyone to cover this.❤️❤️👣❤️❤️
@aryachow Unfortunately we’ll have to wait awhile for possible Grammy consideration. The eligibility period for the 2025 Grammys ended August 30.
Bad Valentine is now #9 on the top 100 iTunes Jazz chart ❤️❤️👣❤️❤️
@@Shakes-P She has noow moved to #9 ❤️❤️👣❤️❤️
I have not been appreciative of the song so much... Until now!
Right!!
I liked it, a lot
But this is just sooooo goooood!
AJ channeling Diana Krall -- with frybrato. Simply astonishing. I hear there's a video on the way.
🤞🤞🤞
Beyond MAGICAL!!!!!
OMG!!!!!!
I LOVE THIS!! I really hope this is the version Toby puts on the album he sends to the Grammys!
YES!!!
❤❤❤❤❤❤
I liked this song until I heard this version which I love.
@@brucecumming8803 right!!!
Shakes, IMO, THIS, stunning jazz arrangement is a stupefying vocal master work. I can’t convey how much I ❤ this version.
👏 Bravo, Angelina! 🫶🏻
Amen
She should sing this at the Grammys.
❤Billie Holiday, is that you 😢❤
"I would actually like to re-record these songs with a new generation of singers." Toby Gad on the creation of "Piano Diaries".
I don't know if the Angels know his interview about it on SWR1 (probably not, since it's in German and Angelina isn't mentioned? - serach for. “Piano Diaries Toby Gad SWR1”). The audio file is more interesting than the written text.
Vocal artists on Piano diaries:
All of me (John Legend) - Celina Sharma
If I were a boy (BC Jean, then Beyonce) - Angelina Jordan
Untouched (The Veronicas) - Johnny Orlando
Big girls don’t cry (Fergie) - Victoria Justice
Little do you know (Alex & Sierra) - Aloe Blacc & Keke Palmer
Who you are (Jessie J) - Louisa Johnson
Skyscraper (Demi Lovato) - Camylio
Feel good (Daya) - Paravi
I can't comment on this, it is just too good. Thanks Shakes
@@billeaton9562 sheer Brilliance
I’m pretty sure Angelina could release an entire album using only one song.
🤣😂🤣 right
This version is currently #7 on the US iTunes Jazz charts. Toby also announced yesterday that Spotify has listed the original version of Bad Valentine on their Notable Releases list. Looks like both versions of the song are getting some recognition.
AMAZING NEWS
Nice reaction Shakes! Like what Angelina did with the song My Funny Valentine, Bad Valentine (Piano Diaries) is another song where she goes back with her vocals and uses her Jazz influences and vocals to turn this song in to a jazz masterpiece. Currently, the song is tracking on the iTunes Top 100 Jazz Songs and is sitting at #10 (as of 7:35am PST 10/6/24). It so far has reached a high at #7 What a great song!
This is #1 in my books
Just FYI, the true original version of Bad Valentine is the studio version released a couple weeks ago. It was actually recorded 2 years ago when Angelina was still 16 but was left unreleased. The Hotel Cafe performance was the first live one and fans assumed at the time that the song was brand new. We didn’t know that it was originally recorded in 2022.
I think both versions can be successful . One a pop hit and the other a jazz hit.
this is vol 2 of the piano diaries. not the grammy submission
Yes all the songs on the Piano Diaries album are performed by other artists, not the ones that had the original hit.
Although this jazzy version of Bad Valentine is called a Piano Diaries version, it is not on the album. I guess it’s called that because it also has the same minimalistic approach .
The Grammy nominations are actually announced next month. The Piano Diaries album has been submitted for consideration in the categories Toby mentioned. We have to wait about a month to see if it did receive any of those nominations.
🤞🤞
Yes
She's just different... 👣🕊️
Well said
I fukn love your reaction
@@carolbecker9282 Aye!!
Thank you Carol, 💯🙂🙂
This is on the second piano diaries album so not on this Grammy considered album this one it would be If I were a Boy.
Ahh ok,
I thought so. Thank you for clearing this up
I've seen a short black & white clip of what looks like it might be a music video. I agree that the still pic helps you focus on the voice and the lyrics. But. I'm REALLY looking forward to the video if the clip is what I think it is. So often I try to close my eyes and soak up Angelina's voice, but I can't. I love watching her performances so much. 🥰
this is SOOO good it doesnt need video. there are a series of shorts in silhouette simulating a club of prior to show with stage work lights.
This is such a good reaction Shakes. What a masterpiece. You are so right Shakes. A bit of her different voices from over the years right through this. And a bit of all the Artists voices Angelina has studied longer than her years. I can just see in 10 years, Angelina revisit her most famous songs. Give them a revamp into something amazing, that our minds wouldn't be able to process today.
@@gtir300hp Thank you my friend!
😀😀😀😀😀
Great to see you again Shakes ! Why TF didn't he mention Angelina ?? Kinda pisses me off. Thanks again bro 👍🏻❤️
🤣😂🤣😂🤣
SHAKES, AJ HAD TO APPROVE IT BEFORE THEY COULD RELEASE IT . "HOW TO MOVE ON"
Hey Shakes, fri night listener and top 100 supporter of AJ. A list I’m starting soon.
I love this version, question?
Who is the bad Valentine in the song?
And why does AJ in a interview say this song will give you confidence?
Toby said that Bad Valentine was not included in the EP of last yr, did AJ have a say in that?
It seems like an obvious choice?
Fyi- I don’t think you’ll mind the promo for Wrapped, they have Michael on today. 🤜
See ya next fri.
Will tell me you will only become famous again if you acknowledge Angelina Jordan
this is an absolute banger from Angelina, but my concern is that Angelina is not getting the accolades on spotify it has Toby Gad as the artist very little said about Angelina, This is Angelina's wheelhouse and she must have been the instigator of this arrangement, I am not aware Toby has no history in jazz
@@PatrickWilliams-ou9hu Just the way the industry works. It is Toby's song on his album. She is a featured artist on the album performing this song. Had Angelina distributed the song on Streaming platforms is the only way she is credited with the song!
I hear Bond Movie soundtrack
