Hello Tara! I've been watching your reaction video's on You Tube for quite a while! you have a lovely voice...I would love to get your reaction to my humble cover of Bob Marley's Redemption Song: th-cam.com/video/CKeltgR0-pQ/w-d-xo.html love and light.
She has written 3 songs so far: What is Life, Shield and Oslo. She sings barefoot to remind her that all children in the world do not have shoes. She wrote a book about it and is the youngest published author in Norway. The outfit she is wearing she made herself and the artwork on the outfit is of her grandmother's art. She now resides in Los Angeles.
@@wippletits So sorry. I was repeating what I read so the person that wrote it was wrong. I am also sorry I don't remember who wrote it for me to see. 👱♀️👗👠💓
another one is "Song for A". Composer Nico Cartosio wrote this song based on an old poem by Robert Burns and asked Angelina to sing for it. Epic love song. _Song for A_
Art is when the singer dissolves into the song and becomes the song. Great art is when the singer drags the audience into the song with them. Angelina is a great artist!!!
Angelina Jordan is the ULTIMATE PERFORMER, it’s like she is singing for you, and you alone. She knows where that soft spot is within you, and she goes there on the very first note of each performance. She leaves you begging for more like no one else can.
Angelina has come a far, far way for being 14 years old today. This was not her birth of greatness, but this performance, and her other two at AGT, certainly help her career. Here is a little about her: She plays 4 instruments, speaks 5 languages, Norwegian and English fluently, Persian, Swedish and some Japanese. She has had much more than a billion views long time before AGT. She has helped raise millions of Euros in charity concerts for poor children. She has sung for Obama, and some royalties, Nobel Peace Price concert and more, and has worked together with many big names in the music industry so far, and everyone knows her there. Been live at national TV countless times. Quincy Jones has told, when she performed in London at his 85th birthday, that he had not seen a bigger talent since Michael Jackson. She is the youngest author of a book in Norway, at age 9. And she has written 3 own songs so far, when she was 11 and 12, and 2 others written for her. She has done more than 120 covers, many of them better than the original, according to reactors. She has done all genres, from jazz to EDM, and everything in between. She has her own album of original songs ready for releasing shortly. And she doesnt wear shoes on stage until all poor children have shoes. She gave away her shoes to a poor girl in Iran when she was 6, and decided that then (as explained and written in her book). She is the most humble and sweet girl. She was invited to the TV show "The View" in USA when she was 8, to sing "Fly me to the moon". She has sung for 40.000 people in South Korea, who were singing along with her. In Japan, she sung in Japanese for a huge crowd, and she has sung in Brazil on TV. Not bad for a 13 year old (14 today). Thank you for this reaction, Tara, I hope you will continue reacting to her. She is spectacular. Her covers are unbelievable good, from she was 6 until 13. Good reaction! 👍😊
That was more than I knew, and I am Norwegian. Although she is norwegian by birth, I don't think she is that by her heart. She is a citizen of the whole world.
@DUKE LANGUAGE CENTER Angelina would be honored 😊 Since this was written, she has also signed for Republic Records, as their priority new artist. How about that for a 14 year old 😉
She is born to this to sing for the world from her heart and soul in honor of her connection to her inner Spirit! A Million Miles Away is her own song she wrote… and there are others.
She has always has the 20s , 30 s, jazzy sound,.She does her own arrangements, plays five instruments, sings in multiple languages and speaks five languages fluently. Love her and expect great things. She does her own thing .
She came across a homeless girl with no shoes when she was younger. She gave up her shoes and vouched to sing barefoot until every homeless person had shoes.
It happened in Iran (middle east), at her grandma's hometown. Based on the true story of when she was six years old, Angelina met a homeless, shoeless girl. After they talked for a long time, she gave the girl her shoes and vowed never to appear on stage again wearing shoes until all the world's children had them. Since that time, Angelina has always performed barefoot in public.
I WAS GOING TO TELL THAT STORY BECAUSE TARA WAS WONDERING ABOUT THAT BUT YOU ALL GUYS HAVE SAID EVERYTHING ALREADY. ANGELINA IS AN AMAZING GIRL AND A GREAT ARTIST.
Every time I hear Angelina sings, I would ask the question...' What have humanity done to deserve such blessings that which is Angelina Jordan '?... None the less, I'm so happy she was sent to us all...Great reaction my friend. Cheers..
Finally you get to my favorite singer! There are 125+ videos of Angelina for you to watch. She began with Jazz. She has three of her own originals (Shield, What is Life and Oslo), a song composed from an 1700s poem that she was to do the vocals for and it's the only vocal on a mainly instrumental album (A Song For A) and EDM song she was featured on (Above the Water). She has an album out called "It's Magic" that she did with the Staff Band of the Norwegian Armed Forces. Angelina met a girl about the same age, 6 years old, on the streets weighing people for money. They talked for awhile and each expressed their dreams for the future. Angelina noticed the girl was bare footed and had scars on her feet. Angelina took off her shoes and gave them to the girl. The girl thanked Angelina and said she would pray for her. Angelina made vow at 6 to perform barefooted until all the world's children can have shoes, in remembrance of the girl and to remind people there are those among us who may be less fortunate in life. She has maintained that vow to this day. Enjoy your Angelina journey. We are impatiently waiting for the rumored new album to come out. Rusty may be along in a minute or 2 to give you more of a bio on Angelina.
Truly one the greatest performances I have ever seen! Absolutely spellbinding & soul stirring! A superstar is birthed!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨ Freddie would be in AWE!!! 💎💎💎
I've seen 100s of Angelina's videos and 100s of Angelina reaction videos and read 100s of Angelina's comments so i've come to the conclusion that Angelina Jordan is with no doubt the greatest singer ever. I truly believe she's a real life Angel sent from heaven to save our planet, and boy do we need her now.
My old mouth is like that young one in the audience with almost any song this artist does. There are few people that affect me like Angelina does. None that understand what the song means, has the technique to make the song sound as it should, and the musical knowledge to do a song the way she wants it to sound, and make it a masterpiece with her voice. Angelina is a vocal Rembrandt.
Her Back to Black Amy Winehouse cover gives me full body chills. She's beautiful inside and out, and that voice comes out from the inside. She's an angel. I love her. She's a legend. Just like Simon.
Thank you for reacting to Angelina. I hope you will contine your journey of discovery. Each time you hear her sing she will expose different elements of her gift. You will not be disappointed - I promise.
Angelina is one of the most addictive singers I have ever listened to, & one of the very few, that can pull you right into the song, making you feel, every word, every note, & every emotion. ❤️💙 I always have this feeling that Angelina is not only channeling some of these late great singers, but that they also pass through her, when she is singing their song ❤️💙 A rare beauty, in every sense of the word ❤️💙 Whether you are a believer in reincarnation or not, I find it very intriguing that Lou Rawls, the American Jazz & blues singer legend, died, the same day Angelina is born 😊 Loved your reaction!!!
Yes, she learned from the old masters. She started singing with 1,5 years. She covered Billy Holiday, Frank Sinatra, Screaming Jay Hawkins, Freddy Mercury, Shirley Bassey, Amy Winehouse, Lana del Rey, Adele and many more and incorporated their styles. Her 120+ covers are always unique, always interesting. I think there will be an album of new original songs after Corona
I have watched AGT since the first season and I have never heard the audience give such a deafening roar of cheers and applause like that before. She silenced them with her voice and at the end they erupted in cheers. Amazing.
I have been waiting a long time for you to hear Angelina!! I think I made my first request over a year ago. I knew you would be able to hear it in just seconds. You could spend a lot of time examining her vocals. So much detail and technique she packs into every song she sings. For a lot of the world this performance was the first they saw of Angelina, but she has been singing like a pro for years. And for people just discovering her, here is a little bio so that you can learn about her background and her kind soul.... *Angelina Jordan* - Angelina Jordan was born Jan 10 2006 in Oslo, Norway. She is currently 14 - She began singing at the age of one and a half - At 2 or 3 she discovered Jazz through her grandmother and started studying all the greats from Jazz history with youtube videos. - *Why Angelina always sings barefoot* - When Angelina was 6 years old, she was traveling with her grandmother and met a poor girl with no shoes trying to make money on the streets. They talked for a while and discussed their dreams. It was cold and the girl had scars on her feet. Seeing this, Angelina took off her shoes and gave them to the girl. The girl thanked her and told Angelina she would pray for her every day. That day Angelina made a vow to always sing barefoot until all the children of the world could have shoes. To this day, whenever Angelina is performing in public, she sings barefoot as a way to remember that little girl and to remind us that there are less fortunate people in the world that could use our help. Angelina holds so true to this promise that she has sung outdoors in Norway, in december... barefoot. She has sung at a dinner with ex-pres Obama... barefoot. She went on AGT (possibly the biggest stage in the world)...bare foot. She made a promise at 6 years old, and has stuck strong to it for years. That takes a special kind of person. - She has always been the driving force behind her own singing career. It was her that asked her mother to take her to Norways Got Talent, where she auditioned at 7 years old and went on to win the whole show at just 8 years old. - In an interview after the show, when asked what she was going to do with the prize money, the 8 year old replied, "I would like to give it to orphans that need clothes and shoes" - When Angelina was 9 years old she became the youngest published author in Norway, when she wrote a book about the story of why she doesn't wear shoes when she sings. She donated proceeds from the sales of the book to help children in need. - The reason you may not have heard of her is because her parents are very protective of her childhood. They do not want her to be thrust into stardom before she has a chance to grow up as a normal child, and finish her education. They allow her to do a few select shows (mainly private and charity events) with a couple public shows every year when she is out of school. Her mother said in an interview that they have turned down 90% of the offers that come in. I have heard they have turned down offers from many major record labels and even disney. - Angelina has covered more than 120 songs and over 65 artists in the last 6 years. She always selects the songs herself... everything ranging from old classic jazz to modern pop. She is able to change her voice to match any song she sings and make it her own. (she can cover Amy Winehouse and Lana del Rey like nobody else) - Angelina has collaborated with some very big names over the last few years... Quincy Jones, Mark Ronson, David Foster, Alan Walker and many more. All of which heard her and were blown away by her talent. - Angelina has written three of her own original songs: "What is Life", "Shield" and "Oslo". (all are amazing...all can be found on youtube) In summary, Angelina Jordan is destined to be one of the greatest singers to have ever lived. This is just my opinion, but if you listen closely to any of her stuff you will hear the greatness. She sings with a natural style. There is no acting, no showing off, there are no unnecessary runs, or big belty notes just for the purpose of saying "hey look at me sing". She once said "when I sing I go into a magical world in my head", and you can always hear the results of that. When Angelina sings it is pure soul, pure emotion, pure music.
There are sea of good singers in music world today. But there are really few artists who can paint a new great music out of the songs they sing. And Angelina is one of those few....and she's still young. So much wonderful things ahead of her. She does write her own songs too. So many good things to say about her, her music, her personality.. Just don't know where to start... Guess I'll just leave it to what a fan once said. The only thing bigger than Angelina's music is her heart.
@@billmichealoff9549 Humble, kind, thoughtful, emotional, huge heart and stunningly gorgeous...not to mention her stratospheric talent in music and books. This is a once in lifetime rare phenomenal talent. God bless her going forward.
This young lady is going to be a legend in her own rights, bridging gaps between different generations. You should react to her Gloomy Sunday, singing at 7 years old. Truly, she's a shiny star who's born to embrace and purify us from evilness of the world..... I'm keeping her Simple magical shining light in my heart... just in case too many ladies start bursting up Dimash's :))
Birth of a new Star?? Before this "birth" she had recorded about 130 Songs, performed in big areas many Countrys around the world, sang for Quincy Jones, song for Obama, raised raise millions of dollars for children's charities, wrote a book, wrote her own musik, ...
But she hadn't become a "Star" until millions heard her, all at once, and loved her. This performance, had it not been so downtrodden by the show, would have, and probably did, made her into an international "name" which will last longer than she does.
Yes, Yes, Yes, Yes, Yes! You finally found Angelina. Been waiting for this forever. Welcome to Angelina's world. Buckle up if you are going to take this ride down the rabbit hole of over 120 covers and other videos that she has recorded between the ages of 6 and 14 which is her current age. She has already established herself as an accomplished Jazz artist. Her preferred genre is Jazz but she has done covers of about every genre you can name. What you will find in Angelina is a vocalist who doesn't do vocal gymnastics, she simply and beautifully interprets the story and meaning of the song and pours her soul into every performance. Another thing about Angelina is that she is completely in control of the music she sings. She picks the songs and arranges them herself the way she wants them to be done. In the "I put a spell on you" video, when she was 9 years old, she is seen handing some written notes to the band director. The were her "wishes" about changes she would like in the arrangement.
Angelina has sung for Barrack Obama, Quincy Jones, Nobel Laureates, the king of Sweden, the king of Norway, and other dignitaries. She has performed everywhere from small weddings of a few people, to London's O2 stadium with 40,000 people. She performs at jazz festivals, conferences, and charity benefits. At the age of 14, she is a seasoned performer with 8 years of recording and performing. Many of her live performances when she was 10, 11, and 12 years old blow away even the original adult performers of the songs she sings. She is definitely worth your time to experience and get to know. She has covered Sinatra, Elvis, Aretha Franklin, Billie Holiday, Queen, Miley Cirus, Patsy Cline, James Brown, Lana Del Rey, Norma Jones, Adele, Ella Fitzgerald, Amy Winehouse, Michael Jackson, Screamin Jay Hawkins, and many more. Here is a good sampling of my favorites of hers that cover a variety of genres and ranges. I have included some of her live rehearsal sessions which actually blow away other performers produced releases . This is just a short list and other fans of Angelina will have the same length list with different songs. I have rarely heard one of her performances that I have thought was not up to par. There are three of her original songs in this list that you will love as well. I put them at the top of the list.

Correction, Angelina did not sing for Obama, he happen to be in attendance at a charity where she was singing, Angelina does not do political events , I keep seeing people make this false claim over and over again.
@@ckh57 seems like a matter of semantics. I don't recall saying that she was invited to specifically sing for Obama, or that it was a political event. However, if Obama was in the audience of a charity event that she performed at then she sang for Obama along with a bunch of other people. It does seem to be splitting hairs, so I will be more specific in my wording going forward.
Clyde Harris yes thanks for addressing that. He was among many at the Brilliant Minds conference in Stockholm in June of 2019. He visited with Angelina and was very complementary of her singing. Such a thoughtful man to take the time to visit with her.
This is one of the most intelligent analysis of Angelina's voice. Of the hundreds i have watched you clearly point out her vibrato style. Champion, 👏 👏 👏
Glad you got it! I saw her sing Bang Bang when she was 7 and now I watch her sing almost every day. Just amazing. and a great critique from you , Tara💗💗💗💗💗💗💗
Welcome to “The World Of Angelina Jordan Astar” (full name). “The Barefoot Singer With The Velvet Voice And A Mona Lisa Smile”. From her audition on Norway’s Got Talent (2014 - age 7- Gloomy Sunday "Billy Holiday") through the finale’ on America’s Got Talent The Champions (2020 - age 13 - Goodbye Yellow Brick Road "Sir Elton John") and the 130+ videos in between you will not be disappointed. My personal favorite is her cover of Lana Del Rey's "Born To Die". She is the youngest published author in Norway. Angelina wrote and her Grandmother illustrated a book about why she sings barefoot. She was on a trip to Iran when she was 6 where her grandmother is from and met a street girl weighing people for money. Angelina sat and talk with the girl. Angelina asked the girl what she wanted to be when she grew up and the girl replied, a Doctor but that it could never happen. Angelina told her to never give up hope. The girl complimented Angelina on her shoes and Angelina noticed her scarred bare feet so she gave them to her, and the little girl told Angelina she would pray for her every day. Angelina sings barefoot to remind the world that there are still children in need.
I love love love that you said,” You just witnessed something super special.” It really emphasizes how this performance will echo for a very long time. Great reaction, especially at the end with the three girls. Lol.
Tara - I just watched your reaction to "Oceans" by Hillsong. Awesome blessing. I think that the more you get to know Angelina, the more you will love her. She has a heart like yours. She has spent the past 7 years pouring out her soul and her talent to help people who are not as fortunate as her. She donated much, if not most of her winnings from Norway's Got Talent to children's charities and has performed in benefit concerts across the globe in support of disadvantaged children and other social causes (raising over 25 million Euros). The story of her bare feet is one of unbelievable commitment and caring. When she was 6 years old, she was traveling in the middle east (her grandmother is Iranian), and she came across a young girl close to her age who was working in the street offering to weigh people with a bathroom scale for money. She had no shoes on her feet and her feet were cracked and in pretty bad shape. They talked for a while and then the little girl mentioned how nice she thought Angelina's shoes were. Angelina asked her if she had any shoes and she said no, so Angelina gave her the shoes off her feet. Angelina asked her what her dreams were and the little girl said she wanted to be a doctor. Angelina told the little girl that she wanted to be a star and sing for the world. The little girl told Angelina she would pray for her every day and asked Angelina to not forget about her. Angelina made a promise at that time that any time she sang in public she would sing barefoot to remember this little girl and bring awareness to the suffering of children around the world. To this day, over 7 years later, she has stayed true to that commitment. She remains a very grounded and humble young lady and we are all praying that she doesn't get messed up by the music and entertainment industry as she finds her way. To all the Angelina fans, forgive me if I have gotten any of the details wrong in my recollection of this wonderful story.
And her full name is Angelina Jordan Astar. Angelina does switch things around a lot, she’s got over 120 covers out there but this the first time I have heard sing like this. This is her AGT voice. She sings a lot low stuff, but also goes into full on belt mode. A lot of people are going to recommend you watch her version of I Put a Spell. I recommend it so you can see this is not the start of Angelina’s journey. She’s channeling the Screaming Jay Hawkins version, so it’s a crazy and shocking ride.
This is our Angina !!!!!! She makes you shiver , get goosebumps and pull you to her world leaving you breathless!!!!! Thank you for the lovely reaction and yes has originals that has written herself. " shild" " what is life" " Oslo".
@@Tarasimonstudios Ha, ah I didn't actually expect you to see this or I would have also talked about how incredibly impressive I think you are, as a singer & as a coach! :) ♡
Lol! This is why I open the door and then the shower curtain a bit to create goosebumps WHILE I shave. Then the goosebumps that come thereafter don't screw me over and require me to shave again immediately. Haha
Brilliant analysis, so many try and it’s a disaster, you were just spot on ! She has her own stuff. She paints, do gymnastics, play piano, guitar, banjo, violin, flute and another blow instrument. Her first book has been on the shelves for three or four years. Many thanks from a music teacher in Denmark.
I just love the group of all three girls there; one has her mouth dropped open, one (on left) has her hand over her mouth, the other (on right) has her hand over her heart. Priceless.
I love her! I hope she finds her own song and she soars with it! I also fear, because we have too many heavenly rock stars. Keep those feet bare and stay grounded you beautiful young and extremely talented old soul! ✌️❤️🌈
Technically brilliant. Pitch perfect. BUT, when she sings of anguish, such as Freddy Mercury about to die in his prime, you FEEL IT. You feel what he must have felt. Every song she sings she Communicates any and every emotion into one’s heart. This goes beyond artistry, it is proof magic exists. ❤️
@@lannawolf1864 yes, you are correct. According to one of his closest friends Bohemian Rhapsody was about Freddie's struggle with his sexuality and coming out. The death portrayed in the song is the death of the persona he had been projecting to everyone around him as a heterosexual. The lyric "Never wishing one had been born at all..." seems to express the conflict and shame he may have felt and struggled with through his youth. This by far makes more sense than ANY explanation I have ever heard about this song.
Technically brilliant? You mean manipulate till there's nothing left of her actual voice? OK. Pitch perfect? Then we listened to a different video. The first two lines are completely off pitch. The rest is often times a bit under. That's not pitch perfect.
there are 2 artists in this age group who have the pure musical talent to be great, Angelina and Daneliya, others may go forward but these two are special
Thank You, Thank you, Thank You! Finally, I can stop harassing you, but I probably won't just because there is a treasure chest of goodies to see your reaction on. You are the #1 vocal coach and your opinion means a lot. As you have already heard she has 3 original songs and she has 2 songs that were written for her. One from a Russian composer who has an instrumental album and wanted his final song ( a Burns poem) on the album to be sung by Angelina "A Song For A" and as far in the other direction you can go an EDM duo wanted her to sing the lyrics on their dance song "Above The Water". I know you will hear a lot about her kind heart, but it is recorded that she has raised over 21 million euros for charities, and she is not a millionaire her self.
Something about this performance from angelina just..... chills me so much i don't worry as much as i do normally...this one was a weird watershed moment that I'll remember probably for as angelina herself remembers. Surreal
I remember when you sang for Simon and there is a big difference between her debut in front of Simon and your debut in front of Simon on the X Factor! lol I love Angelina's talent and her compassion for others. She is world class 💗
As someone else stated...she writes, arranges, is a published author, and the story about the bare feet is legendary. She designs her own clothes....I feel so inferior and I'm 80 years old!
Now I really want you to watch her rendition of “I put a spell on you”. You’ll go absolutely nuts for that! It’s a black-and-white video. She was nine years old there. I just wanna also comment that I’ve never seen you rewind a video before! Ha ha.
Donni Lloyd I know you don’t mean any disrespect but she does not copy Screamin Jay Hawkins. She honors his theatrical version by turning it into an awesome jazz blues masterpiece. She does her best to emulate the artists that inspire her
@@BlackWolfSpirit Sadly, you are wrong. But thank you for trying to defend me. In this video, she's holds a candle with Screamin Jay Hawkins on it. How you thought that I meant Nina Simone, I have NO CLUE.
BEWARE! this is a long comment. I hope you have the patience to read to the end. You have a new subscriber! Thank you for discovering and reacting my favourite singer. Simon was correct when he said that he had never heard that version,. Angelina re-arranged it for the performance. She does this with many of her cover songs. Her fans call it "Angelinafying". The lady who first stood and clapped at the end of Angelina's performance was her maternal grandmother, Mery Zamani. On her right was Angelina's mother, Sara Astar, then Juliette, her sister and last her uncle, Michael Astar who is also her Manager. My introduction to Angelina was on her first appearance at Norway's Got Talent and I didn't expect much from a 7 year old. Just a cute little girl, all nervous, rushing the song in parts, hesitating and then stumbling over or forgetting her words and generally acting her age and doing her best to get through a childish song like "Twinkle, twinkle little star". Well, it was a seven year old child, with wild hair and gaps in her mouth, where there once were Baby teeth. whom walked on to the stage but when she opened her mouth to speak the normal perception ended and things turned upside down. She confidently answered the questions put to her by a Judge. Declared she was going to sing a song by the legendary Billie Holiday. Gestured off stage for the technician to start the music and then started singing. The body of the 7 year old was still there but the voice wasn't. Or was it? I was surprised then and that surprise is still with me, some six years later. I have followed her career since I saw that first video on TH-cam and in the six years she has been singing publicly she has mastered many musical genres, including Blues, Country, Disco, Jazz,Pop, R&B and Soul, EDM and Rock and covered songs first performed by many famous singers,like Adele, Whitney Houston, Nancy and Frank Sinatra, Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald, Lana del Ray, Gloria Gaynor, Elvis Presley, Louis Armstrong and many others. What is more extraordinary is that she takes ownership of every song she sings while still paying respect to the original. You will notice that she never goes into unnecessary theatrics. Never sings those high or low notes unless they are absolutely necessary. Never projects herself in any performance which says "look how good I am". She just sings the song as she feels it is meant to be sung. And I'll add an even more extraordinary item for you to consider, to show how unique she is. She has the innate ability not only to sing a song as emotionally as the song deserves but to be able to communicate those same emotions to the listener. As I have noted, I have been following her career a long time and have listened to every interview she has given and every documentary about her and every performance she has ever given. What stands stands out for me is how a very shy and humble girl in her normal life, can be transformed into the perfect vehicle for the song she has chosen to sing, once she starts to sing. Although the gift of singing and all her performances appear to be effortless, Angelina works very hard to ensure that the one she is going to record reflects what she sees as the correct way to meld both lyrics and melody. If you go to th-cam.com/channels/hM_lpT4shdnsez93QMJPig.html you will find many rehearsals where, not only do you get to see her rehearsing but being the "ordinary" girl she is (if indeed one is able to apply that adjective to her). Most of her performances are recorded in her home studio,either with background music or a single guitar. Most are done in one take. She treats the whole thing as a hobby. As we would have said when I was young. "There is no 'side' to her" She is completely transparent to the world. Perhaps you would like to go back a few years and work forward. By doing so, you will come to the realisation that she is "unique" and I don't use that word loosely. There is truly no other singer who has her versatility and sheer ability to communicate the emotions of a song to her listeners. I doubt there is another singer who works so hard to to ensure that, when she sings the song, it is sung in such a way that her listener becomes enmeshed in the emotions. She doesn't just cover songs, she reinterprets them in such a way that the listeners understands the lyrics for the first time. So, here a few recordings for you to consider. age 6 - First visit to a Recording Studio:I who have nothing: th-cam.com/video/RjQZKBpVaes/w-d-xo.html age 7 - Norway's Got Talent - First Audition: Gloomy Sunday: th-cam.com/video/8q7MqdFoibI/w-d-xo.html age 7 - Norway’s Got Talent - Judges' Cut-Off:I’m a fool to want you th-cam.com/video/LXknLZDoRVQ/w-d-xo.html age 7 - Norway's Got Talent - Semi Final: Bang Bang: th-cam.com/video/cSEO3IMVtCI/w-d-xo.html age 8 - Norway's Got Talent - Final: Summertime: th-cam.com/video/443pBSpx5B4/w-d-xo.html age 8 - Concert in Sweden - "I'll be there":th-cam.com/video/VJIwvWdoO3o/w-d-xo.html age 9 - Charity Concert: At last: th-cam.com/video/819bQ9I-T-g/w-d-xo.html age 9 - It’s Now or Never - th-cam.com/video/hli1fuk8zQQ/w-d-xo.html age 10 - Norwegian TV Production: Every time we say goodbye: th-cam.com/video/KRSI8HmTHJA/w-d-xo.html One thing which several of the new reactors - and those who have returned to her have decided, is to follow her career from the start. If you should decide to do the same, go to Rusty Shackleford's website and look at the list he has compiled of Angelina songs in chronological order.Rusty Shackleford - Chronological order th-cam.com/channels/55am_6Y5-Fj4ri8xOInstA.html
She always sings barefoot when she was young she met a little girl who couldn't afford shoes so she gave the little girl her shoes, ever since then she sings barefooted. Special young lady.
I’m so so so happy you were able to finally able to react to Angelina. I mentioned in my comment when I asked you to react that she reminded me of a younger Ami Wienhouse. So glad you thought that as well. Thank you for reacting. I knew you would like her.
Angelina has so far published 3 songs that she wrote herself, and she's working on an album said to be exclusively her own material, but due to the current situation she's been unable to get to the studio to finish the recordings. The three original songs we can enjoy so far are: *_What Is Life_* th-cam.com/video/Bv0r77KN7RA/w-d-xo.html _(is the secret finally explained?)_ *_Oslo_* th-cam.com/video/uxF-KiiSVoA/w-d-xo.html _(homage to her hometown)_ *_Shield_* th-cam.com/video/lQtUbVKb0vs/w-d-xo.html _(a song dedicated to her mother)_ Angelina's describes the lyrics for the song Shield as _"It's about someone you love. Where ever you are, this strong love protects you"._ By the way, it was funny to see you laugh that hard at the girl in the audience with the mouth wide open since you made a similar face yourself when Angelina started to sing ;)
Angelina won Norway’s got talent, as you heard. She already has an international audience, quite like Dimash does. This wasn’t the “birth” of her success at all. It may be the start of something in the US… I don’t know. It’s cool, as long as she’s successful everywhere else in the world. 22 seconds ago
Thanks for your fantastic first reaction to Angelina, Tara. isn't easy to react to an interpretation like this, you can only be impressed by the fact that Angelina at only 13 years old was able to face a challenge with such an iconic song as this and made her become her own song, with a fantastic reworking, a calm, powerful and terribly emotional interpretation and a great courage to take him to one of the most difficult audiences of the show. 🤗 😆 Angelina is not only what you saw in this perfect performance, she is much more, even very different, but everything she does is at a superlative level, she sang about 130 different interpretations, including covers, songs written for her and her originals written between 11 and 12 years old, if they seem enough This is a very small part of her interpretations! “I Put A Spell On You” - Age 9 th-cam.com/video/nwFloCPXzCs/w-d-xo.html “At Last” - Age 8 th-cam.com/video/819bQ9I-T-g/w-d-xo.html “Every Time We Say Goodbye” - Age 10 th-cam.com/video/KRSI8HmTHJA/w-d-xo.html “Feeling Good”- Age 10 th-cam.com/video/p8kAL-sGJx8/w-d-xo.html “What Is Life” - Age 12 (original song) th-cam.com/video/Bv0r77KN7RA/w-d-xo.html "It's A Man's World" - Age 12 th-cam.com/video/HEm7tGrjIKk/w-d-xo.html “I Will Always Love You” - Age 11 th-cam.com/video/eml4tIAqWUY/w-d-xo.html “Shield” - Age 12 (original song) th-cam.com/video/lQtUbVKb0vs/w-d-xo.html “Valerie” - Age 12 th-cam.com/video/sqmJLkgk2Ik/w-d-xo.html “Wicked Game” - Age 12 th-cam.com/video/5IAMF4FDfw4/w-d-xo.html "Born To Die" - Age 12 th-cam.com/video/DNU-HcLuO_I/w-d-xo.html&start_radio=1 “Stay” - Age 12 th-cam.com/video/_GSVPvCy3Yg/w-d-xo.html “Song for A” - Age 13 (song written for her) th-cam.com/video/Bo3mhxPM-uA/w-d-xo.html “When We Were Young” - Age 13 th-cam.com/video/aHGSsqQOs5I/w-d-xo.html "Above The Water" (TRXD) - Age 14 (song written for her) th-cam.com/video/rpdHJJQAd9Y/w-d-xo.html
What I have been told, that one time she was somewhere where there was a homeless person. She took her shoes off and gave them to that person. Now she performed bare footed to remind us of the people that need our help.
dennis On a street in Tehran, she gave her shoes to a young shoeless orphan weighing people for money to feed her siblings. She always performs barefooted to remind HERSELF of that girl and all the children around the world in need.
I love Shield... she's a world talent ... she's done so much at such a young age. More than most will accomplish is a lifetime. She breaks the fear barrier if that makes sense.
She started singing jazz when she was 18 months. She won Norway’s Got Talent singing Billie Holliday and that genre. You need to look up Rusty Shackleford. I’d start with her performances on NGT. Those songs were done when she was seven. Rusty has made a chronological list of her covers.
Tara you are such a gifted blessing and it's a joy to hear your commentary. I gotta say I busted out laughing from your laughter lol you were caught off guard that was hilarious :) Thank you for another great uplifting encouraging reaction God bless you!
Angelina is obviously breathtaking, and your analysis was impressive - rapid-fire descriptive observations captured the essence of Angelina's talent and style. I am not a singer, but if I had any interest in being so, I would definitely hire you to help me. Your comments at the end also made me feel like I was in good company. Thank you!
Angelina Jordan (born Angelina Jordan Astar on 10 January 2006) is a Norwegian child singer whose audition for the 2014 season of Norway's Got Talent at the age of seven, singing "Gloomy Sunday" in the style of Billie Holiday, became a viral video online, and led to worldwide press coverage. She went on to win the competition (at eight) with her performance of George Gershwin's "Summertime". Since then she has worked to raise millions of dollars on behalf of environmental causes and children's charities around the world. She always performs barefoot, after befriending a young shoeless girl while traveling when she was six years old. Jordan wrote a book about the experience and became the youngest published author in Norway.
She really is special...love how humble she is and what a gift she has. There is another artist that I think you'd enjoy...Diana (Deanna) Ankudinova singing Rechenka and also her version of Wicked Game...please watch Rechenka (River) first (she was on a TV show when she was 14) I think you'd appreciate her artistry. I've watched her numerous times and still get chills every time I hear her. Love your reaction videos!

@@MrTombreyep. Also, I just want to says, Angelina Jordan is such a legend.
Hello Tara! I've been watching your reaction video's on You Tube for quite a while! you have a lovely voice...I would love to get your reaction to my humble cover of Bob Marley's Redemption Song:
th-cam.com/video/CKeltgR0-pQ/w-d-xo.html love and light.
She’s won norway got talent in young aged
She has written 3 songs so far: What is Life, Shield and Oslo. She sings barefoot to remind her that all children in the world do not have shoes. She wrote a book about it and is the youngest published author in Norway. The outfit she is wearing she made herself and the artwork on the outfit is of her grandmother's art. She now resides in Los Angeles.
Her 4th original song is Head Above The Water. 🎶👱♀️👗👠
I love everything about her
@@wippletits So sorry. I was repeating what I read so the person that wrote it was wrong. I am also sorry I don't remember who wrote it for me to see. 👱♀️👗👠💓
another one is "Song for A". Composer Nico Cartosio wrote this song based on an old poem by Robert Burns and asked Angelina to sing for it. Epic love song.
_Song for A_
shanialover she did not write this song. Check the song credentials please so you know for yourself. Thanks.
Art is when the singer dissolves into the song and becomes the song. Great art is when the singer drags the audience into the song with them. Angelina is a great artist!!!
In your opinion
@@dannysmith8917 what is your’s?
Freddie in heaven would probably say: You're fabulous, darling.
Absolutely. I think Freddie would love this.
Queen already tweeted about this performance.

Agreee :)
Like freddie is waiting for you to collad in heaven
@@kervinsalvante2157 HAHHAHAHAAHAHHAHA
Angelina Jordan is the ULTIMATE PERFORMER, it’s like she is singing for you, and you alone. She knows where that soft spot is within you, and she goes there on the very first note of each performance. She leaves you begging for more like no one else can.
Angelina has come a far, far way for being 14 years old today. This was not her birth of greatness, but this performance, and her other two at AGT, certainly help her career. Here is a little about her:
She plays 4 instruments, speaks 5 languages, Norwegian and English fluently, Persian, Swedish and some Japanese. She has had much more than a billion views long time before AGT. She has helped raise millions of Euros in charity concerts for poor children. She has sung for Obama, and some royalties, Nobel Peace Price concert and more, and has worked together with many big names in the music industry so far, and everyone knows her there. Been live at national TV countless times. Quincy Jones has told, when she performed in London at his 85th birthday, that he had not seen a bigger talent since Michael Jackson.
She is the youngest author of a book in Norway, at age 9. And she has written 3 own songs so far, when she was 11 and 12, and 2 others written for her. She has done more than 120 covers, many of them better than the original, according to reactors. She has done all genres, from jazz to EDM, and everything in between. She has her own album of original songs ready for releasing shortly. And she doesnt wear shoes on stage until all poor children have shoes. She gave away her shoes to a poor girl in Iran when she was 6, and decided that then (as explained and written in her book).
She is the most humble and sweet girl. She was invited to the TV show "The View" in USA when she was 8, to sing "Fly me to the moon". She has sung for 40.000 people in South Korea, who were singing along with her. In Japan, she sung in Japanese for a huge crowd, and she has sung in Brazil on TV.
Not bad for a 13 year old (14 today). Thank you for this reaction, Tara, I hope you will continue reacting to her. She is spectacular. Her covers are unbelievable good, from she was 6 until 13. Good reaction! 👍😊
That was more than I knew, and I am Norwegian. Although she is norwegian by birth, I don't think she is that by her heart. She is a citizen of the whole world.
@@mortenhallangen1933 "a citizen of the .. world". A very Norwegian thing to say (and I love it).
oh Yes... its true!
Tysvm🌹💕 for sharing her life story so far! 💐💐💐💐
@DUKE LANGUAGE CENTER Angelina would be honored 😊
Since this was written, she has also signed for Republic Records, as their priority new artist. How about that for a 14 year old 😉
She is born to this to sing for the world from her heart and soul in honor of her connection to her inner Spirit!
A Million Miles Away is her own song she wrote… and there are others.
Angelina is an artist not just a singer. She does her own arrangement of the songs. She is music.
Perfect!!!!
She is art, too. She designed the fabric of that suit.
She has always has the 20s , 30 s, jazzy sound,.She does her own arrangements, plays five instruments, sings in multiple languages and speaks five languages fluently. Love her and expect great things. She does her own thing .
She came across a homeless girl with no shoes when she was younger. She gave up her shoes and vouched to sing barefoot until every homeless person had shoes.
It happened in Iran (middle east), at her grandma's hometown.
Based on the true story of when she was six years old, Angelina met a homeless, shoeless girl. After they talked for a long time, she gave the girl her shoes and vowed never to appear on stage again wearing shoes until all the world's children had them. Since that time, Angelina has always performed barefoot in public.
@@michinawi22able Must of happened out of America, bc everyone without shoes here does it for sympathy money $$.
Wow, she's got such a story!
She has a heart of gold precious to the core we need more beautiful souls like her in the world
I WAS GOING TO TELL THAT STORY BECAUSE TARA WAS WONDERING ABOUT THAT BUT YOU ALL GUYS HAVE SAID EVERYTHING ALREADY. ANGELINA IS AN AMAZING GIRL AND A GREAT ARTIST.
She's Billie, Sara, Ella, Amy...she's the whole enchilada! This is a star!!!
Every time I hear Angelina sings, I would ask the question...' What have humanity done to deserve such blessings that which is Angelina Jordan '?... None the less, I'm so happy she was sent to us all...Great reaction my friend. Cheers..
Yes, Angelina is a Superstar and will be a Mega Star.
Her vocals are very unique and iconic, just unbelievable.
So glad you finally got to Angelina. Her voice so moves me. Love her. She could wring emotion from a stone.
That is SO well stated!!
@@Tarasimonstudiosyou talk way too much plz Dont get upset
Angelina you just made this song interesting again. Freddie would be Proud.
Finally you get to my favorite singer! There are 125+ videos of Angelina for you to watch. She began with Jazz. She has three of her own originals (Shield, What is Life and Oslo), a song composed from an 1700s poem that she was to do the vocals for and it's the only vocal on a mainly instrumental album (A Song For A) and EDM song she was featured on (Above the Water). She has an album out called "It's Magic" that she did with the Staff Band of the Norwegian Armed Forces. Angelina met a girl about the same age, 6 years old, on the streets weighing people for money. They talked for awhile and each expressed their dreams for the future. Angelina noticed the girl was bare footed and had scars on her feet. Angelina took off her shoes and gave them to the girl. The girl thanked Angelina and said she would pray for her. Angelina made vow at 6 to perform barefooted until all the world's children can have shoes, in remembrance of the girl and to remind people there are those among us who may be less fortunate in life. She has maintained that vow to this day. Enjoy your Angelina journey. We are impatiently waiting for the rumored new album to come out. Rusty may be along in a minute or 2 to give you more of a bio on Angelina.
Truly one the greatest performances I have ever seen! Absolutely spellbinding & soul stirring! A superstar is birthed!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨ Freddie would be in AWE!!! 💎💎💎
Tara, also react to her version of Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, also on AGT the champions
That's my favorite.
Yes I agree!!
Yes do it!!
Mine too! Listened to it numerous times. Mesmerizing
Yes - please react to yellow brick road. It’s beautiful.
I've seen 100s of Angelina's videos and 100s of Angelina reaction videos and read 100s of Angelina's comments so i've come to the conclusion that Angelina Jordan is with no doubt the greatest singer ever. I truly believe she's a real life Angel sent from heaven to save our planet, and boy do we need her now.
“I get it now why were you harassing me.” LOL. Tara you’re so adorable
My old mouth is like that young one in the audience with almost any song this artist does. There are few people that affect me like Angelina does. None that understand what the song means, has the technique to make the song sound as it should, and the musical knowledge to do a song the way she wants it to sound, and make it a masterpiece with her voice. Angelina is a vocal Rembrandt.
Superstar is an understatement. She'll become a living legend - if she isn't already!
Her Back to Black Amy Winehouse cover gives me full body chills.
She's beautiful inside and out, and that voice comes out from the inside.
She's an angel.
I love her.
She's a legend.
Just like Simon.
Thank you for reacting to Angelina. I hope you will contine your journey of discovery. Each time you hear her sing she will expose different elements of her gift. You will not be disappointed - I promise.
Ok Thanks love!!
Angelina is one of the most addictive singers I have ever listened to, & one of the very few, that can pull you right into the song, making you feel, every word, every note, & every emotion. ❤️💙 I always have this feeling that Angelina is not only channeling some of these late great singers, but that they also pass through her, when she is singing their song ❤️💙 A rare beauty, in every sense of the word ❤️💙 Whether you are a believer in reincarnation or not, I find it very intriguing that Lou Rawls, the American Jazz & blues singer legend, died, the same day Angelina is born 😊 Loved your reaction!!!
Yes, she learned from the old masters. She started singing with 1,5 years.
She covered Billy Holiday, Frank Sinatra, Screaming Jay Hawkins, Freddy Mercury, Shirley Bassey, Amy Winehouse, Lana del Rey, Adele and many more and incorporated their styles. Her 120+ covers are always unique, always interesting. I think there will be an album of new original songs after Corona
I have watched AGT since the first season and I have never heard the audience give such a deafening roar of cheers and applause like that before. She silenced them with her voice and at the end they erupted in cheers. Amazing.
I have been waiting a long time for you to hear Angelina!! I think I made my first request over a year ago. I knew you would be able to hear it in just seconds. You could spend a lot of time examining her vocals. So much detail and technique she packs into every song she sings. For a lot of the world this performance was the first they saw of Angelina, but she has been singing like a pro for years. And for people just discovering her, here is a little bio so that you can learn about her background and her kind soul....
*Angelina Jordan*
- Angelina Jordan was born Jan 10 2006 in Oslo, Norway. She is currently 14
- She began singing at the age of one and a half
- At 2 or 3 she discovered Jazz through her grandmother and started studying all the greats from Jazz history with youtube videos.
- *Why Angelina always sings barefoot* - When Angelina was 6 years old, she was traveling with her grandmother and met a poor girl with no shoes trying to make money on the streets. They talked for a while and discussed their dreams. It was cold and the girl had scars on her feet. Seeing this, Angelina took off her shoes and gave them to the girl. The girl thanked her and told Angelina she would pray for her every day. That day Angelina made a vow to always sing barefoot until all the children of the world could have shoes. To this day, whenever Angelina is performing in public, she sings barefoot as a way to remember that little girl and to remind us that there are less fortunate people in the world that could use our help.
Angelina holds so true to this promise that she has sung outdoors in Norway, in december... barefoot. She has sung at a dinner with ex-pres Obama... barefoot. She went on AGT (possibly the biggest stage in the world)...bare foot. She made a promise at 6 years old, and has stuck strong to it for years. That takes a special kind of person.
- She has always been the driving force behind her own singing career. It was her that asked her mother to take her to Norways Got Talent, where she auditioned at 7 years old and went on to win the whole show at just 8 years old.
- In an interview after the show, when asked what she was going to do with the prize money, the 8 year old replied, "I would like to give it to orphans that need clothes and shoes"
- When Angelina was 9 years old she became the youngest published author in Norway, when she wrote a book about the story of why she doesn't wear shoes when she sings. She donated proceeds from the sales of the book to help children in need.
- The reason you may not have heard of her is because her parents are very protective of her childhood. They do not want her to be thrust into stardom before she has a chance to grow up as a normal child, and finish her education. They allow her to do a few select shows (mainly private and charity events) with a couple public shows every year when she is out of school. Her mother said in an interview that they have turned down 90% of the offers that come in. I have heard they have turned down offers from many major record labels and even disney.
- Angelina has covered more than 120 songs and over 65 artists in the last 6 years. She always selects the songs herself... everything ranging from old classic jazz to modern pop. She is able to change her voice to match any song she sings and make it her own. (she can cover Amy Winehouse and Lana del Rey like nobody else)
- Angelina has collaborated with some very big names over the last few years... Quincy Jones, Mark Ronson, David Foster, Alan Walker and many more. All of which heard her and were blown away by her talent.
- Angelina has written three of her own original songs: "What is Life", "Shield" and "Oslo". (all are amazing...all can be found on youtube)
In summary, Angelina Jordan is destined to be one of the greatest singers to have ever lived. This is just my opinion, but if you listen closely to any of her stuff you will hear the greatness. She sings with a natural style. There is no acting, no showing off, there are no unnecessary runs, or big belty notes just for the purpose of saying "hey look at me sing". She once said "when I sing I go into a magical world in my head", and you can always hear the results of that. When Angelina sings it is pure soul, pure emotion, pure music.
Well said. 🇺🇸
Rusty Shackleford Glad you kept asking ,Rusty!
Did you look her up
@@mrbasketballfan6549 Who are you asking and about whom?
@@louisegogel7973 um. What?
One of the best vocal performances of all time IMO. I'm rarely this impressed and moved by a song. It's really a special performance.
There are sea of good singers in music world today. But there are really few artists who can paint a new great music out of the songs they sing. And Angelina is one of those few....and she's still young. So much wonderful things ahead of her. She does write her own songs too. So many good things to say about her, her music, her personality.. Just don't know where to start... Guess I'll just leave it to what a fan once said. The only thing bigger than Angelina's music is her heart.
It is true, the only thing bigger than Angie's music is her heart!!!
@@billmichealoff9549 Humble, kind, thoughtful, emotional, huge heart and stunningly gorgeous...not to mention her stratospheric talent in music and books. This is a once in lifetime rare phenomenal talent. God bless her going forward.
Everyone points out the girl with her jaw dropped. The 2 next to her were fighting back tears. She strikes on an emotional level.
Angelina is one of the few voices that grip deeply into my soul and provoke emotion.
This young lady is going to be a legend in her own rights, bridging gaps between different generations.
You should react to her Gloomy Sunday, singing at 7 years old. Truly, she's a shiny star who's born to embrace and purify us from evilness of the world.....
I'm keeping her Simple magical shining light in my heart... just in case too many ladies start bursting up Dimash's :))
Birth of a new Star??
Before this "birth" she had recorded about 130 Songs, performed in big areas many Countrys around the world, sang for Quincy Jones, song for Obama, raised raise millions of dollars for children's charities, wrote a book, wrote her own musik, ...
yeah, IKR ...!!!
and Quincy said she was the best singer since Michael Jackson
And she only just getting started.
Quincy requested her at his ceremony celebration. Not too shabby
But she hadn't become a "Star" until millions heard her, all at once, and loved her. This performance, had it not been so downtrodden by the show, would have, and probably did, made her into an international "name" which will last longer than she does.
as a vocal coach you should know you are watching a true world international star .. she's one of a kind .. so glad she was put in our universe ..
Yes, Yes, Yes, Yes, Yes! You finally found Angelina. Been waiting for this forever. Welcome to Angelina's world. Buckle up if you are going to take this ride down the rabbit hole of over 120 covers and other videos that she has recorded between the ages of 6 and 14 which is her current age. She has already established herself as an accomplished Jazz artist. Her preferred genre is Jazz but she has done covers of about every genre you can name. What you will find in Angelina is a vocalist who doesn't do vocal gymnastics, she simply and beautifully interprets the story and meaning of the song and pours her soul into every performance.
Another thing about Angelina is that she is completely in control of the music she sings. She picks the songs and arranges them herself the way she wants them to be done. In the "I put a spell on you" video, when she was 9 years old, she is seen handing some written notes to the band director. The were her "wishes" about changes she would like in the arrangement.
Angelina has sung for Barrack Obama, Quincy Jones, Nobel Laureates, the king of Sweden, the king of Norway, and other dignitaries. She has performed everywhere from small weddings of a few people, to London's O2 stadium with 40,000 people. She performs at jazz festivals, conferences, and charity benefits. At the age of 14, she is a seasoned performer with 8 years of recording and performing. Many of her live performances when she was 10, 11, and 12 years old blow away even the original adult performers of the songs she sings. She is definitely worth your time to experience and get to know. She has covered Sinatra, Elvis, Aretha Franklin, Billie Holiday, Queen, Miley Cirus, Patsy Cline, James Brown, Lana Del Rey, Norma Jones, Adele, Ella Fitzgerald, Amy Winehouse, Michael Jackson, Screamin Jay Hawkins, and many more. Here is a good sampling of my favorites of hers that cover a variety of genres and ranges. I have included some of her live rehearsal sessions which actually blow away other performers produced releases
. This is just a short list and other fans of Angelina will have the same length list with different songs. I have rarely heard one of her performances that I have thought was not up to par. There are three of her original songs in this list that you will love as well. I put them at the top of the list.

Correction, Angelina did not sing for Obama, he happen to be in attendance at a charity where she was singing, Angelina does not do political events , I keep seeing people make this false claim over and over again.
@@ckh57 seems like a matter of semantics. I don't recall saying that she was invited to specifically sing for Obama, or that it was a political event. However, if Obama was in the audience of a charity event that she performed at then she sang for Obama along with a bunch of other people. It does seem to be splitting hairs, so I will be more specific in my wording going forward.
Clyde Harris yes thanks for addressing that. He was among many at the Brilliant Minds conference in Stockholm in June of 2019. He visited with Angelina and was very complementary of her singing. Such a thoughtful man to take the time to visit with her.
She sang like that when she was 8, and she has written a song "Shield". She does Billy Holiday. It is powerful!
Her musicality makes her the MOZART OF THE VOICE.
Yes, she writes. Her song, "Million Miles," sends me to the moon. Lots of story with her.
You HAVE to hear her version of 'I Put A Spell On You', it was when she was 9 or 10 years old, it's so so SO ridiculously good!!
This is one of the most intelligent analysis of Angelina's voice. Of the hundreds i have watched you clearly point out her vibrato style. Champion, 👏 👏 👏
I'm glad that you finally discovered Angelina Jordan. She writes her own songs, too. Please look for "What Is Life?" and "Shield" for example.
Glad you got it! I saw her sing Bang Bang when she was 7 and now I watch her sing almost every day. Just amazing. and a great critique from you , Tara💗💗💗💗💗💗💗
Welcome to “The World Of Angelina Jordan Astar” (full name). “The Barefoot Singer With The Velvet Voice And A Mona Lisa Smile”. From her audition on Norway’s Got Talent (2014 - age 7- Gloomy Sunday "Billy Holiday") through the finale’ on America’s Got Talent The Champions (2020 - age 13 - Goodbye Yellow Brick Road "Sir Elton John") and the 130+ videos in between you will not be disappointed. My personal favorite is her cover of Lana Del Rey's "Born To Die".
She is the youngest published author in Norway. Angelina wrote and her Grandmother illustrated a book about why she sings barefoot. She was on a trip to Iran when she was 6 where her grandmother is from and met a street girl weighing people for money. Angelina sat and talk with the girl. Angelina asked the girl what she wanted to be when she grew up and the girl replied, a Doctor but that it could never happen. Angelina told her to never give up hope. The girl complimented Angelina on her shoes and Angelina noticed her scarred bare feet so she gave them to her, and the little girl told Angelina she would pray for her every day. Angelina sings barefoot to remind the world that there are still children in need.
Well Said!!💐
I love love love that you said,” You just witnessed something super special.”
It really emphasizes how this performance will echo for a very long time. Great reaction, especially at the end with the three girls. Lol.
Her voice is that of an angel made in heaven.
Yeah always said Amy, she is just so natural. I think she just flows
Tara - I just watched your reaction to "Oceans" by Hillsong. Awesome blessing. I think that the more you get to know Angelina, the more you will love her. She has a heart like yours. She has spent the past 7 years pouring out her soul and her talent to help people who are not as fortunate as her. She donated much, if not most of her winnings from Norway's Got Talent to children's charities and has performed in benefit concerts across the globe in support of disadvantaged children and other social causes (raising over 25 million Euros). The story of her bare feet is one of unbelievable commitment and caring. When she was 6 years old, she was traveling in the middle east (her grandmother is Iranian), and she came across a young girl close to her age who was working in the street offering to weigh people with a bathroom scale for money. She had no shoes on her feet and her feet were cracked and in pretty bad shape. They talked for a while and then the little girl mentioned how nice she thought Angelina's shoes were. Angelina asked her if she had any shoes and she said no, so Angelina gave her the shoes off her feet. Angelina asked her what her dreams were and the little girl said she wanted to be a doctor. Angelina told the little girl that she wanted to be a star and sing for the world. The little girl told Angelina she would pray for her every day and asked Angelina to not forget about her. Angelina made a promise at that time that any time she sang in public she would sing barefoot to remember this little girl and bring awareness to the suffering of children around the world. To this day, over 7 years later, she has stayed true to that commitment. She remains a very grounded and humble young lady and we are all praying that she doesn't get messed up by the music and entertainment industry as she finds her way. To all the Angelina fans, forgive me if I have gotten any of the details wrong in my recollection of this wonderful story.
I am well versed in this story and have many times watched Angie tell it herself. Reading your words just now brought tears to my eyes.
Listen to her sing SUMMERTIME when she was 7 and WHAT A DIFFERENCE A DAY MAKES at 9....
And her full name is Angelina Jordan Astar. Angelina does switch things around a lot, she’s got over 120 covers out there but this the first time I have heard sing like this. This is her AGT voice. She sings a lot low stuff, but also goes into full on belt mode. A lot of people are going to recommend you watch her version of I Put a Spell. I recommend it so you can see this is not the start of Angelina’s journey. She’s channeling the Screaming Jay Hawkins version, so it’s a crazy and shocking ride.
This is our Angina !!!!!! She makes you shiver , get goosebumps and pull you to her world leaving you breathless!!!!! Thank you for the lovely reaction and yes has originals that has written herself. " shild" " what is life" " Oslo".
She's otherworldly good. Haha but also: "Wow, beau...[oh, I just got goosebumps. Gonna have to shave again. Dang it]." 😂😂😂 Tara is all of us. ♡
Loooool!!!
@@Tarasimonstudios Ha, ah I didn't actually expect you to see this or I would have also talked about how incredibly impressive I think you are, as a singer & as a coach! :) ♡
Lol! This is why I open the door and then the shower curtain a bit to create goosebumps WHILE I shave. Then the goosebumps that come thereafter don't screw me over and require me to shave again immediately. Haha
Brilliant analysis, so many try and it’s a disaster, you were just spot on !
She has her own stuff.
She paints, do gymnastics, play piano, guitar, banjo, violin, flute and another blow instrument.
Her first book has been on the shelves for three or four years.
Many thanks from a music teacher in Denmark.
yes she writes music , check it out. She is the best
I would love to see you break down a video of her singing "I Put a Spell on You" from when she was younger. It was surreal.
Definitely check out her version of “I put a spell on you”... trust me, your jaw will drop like that girl at the end haha xD
Just like everyone who hears that song from our angel she is one of the best talents on earth
I just love the group of all three girls there; one has her mouth dropped open, one (on left) has her hand over her mouth, the other (on right) has her hand over her heart. Priceless.
morisette amon asia song festival 2017
miss tara please react to morisette amon asia song festival 2017😄
You have to write "the black and white" version.
I love her! I hope she finds her own song and she soars with it! I also fear, because we have too many heavenly rock stars. Keep those feet bare and stay grounded you beautiful young and extremely talented old soul! ✌️❤️🌈
Technically brilliant. Pitch perfect. BUT, when she sings of anguish, such as Freddy Mercury about to die in his prime, you FEEL IT. You feel what he must have felt. Every song she sings she Communicates any and every emotion into one’s heart. This goes beyond artistry, it is proof magic exists. ❤️
Bohemian Rhapsody was made before he found out he had AIDS.
@@lannawolf1864 yes, you are correct. According to one of his closest friends Bohemian Rhapsody was about Freddie's struggle with his sexuality and coming out. The death portrayed in the song is the death of the persona he had been projecting to everyone around him as a heterosexual. The lyric "Never wishing one had been born at all..." seems to express the conflict and shame he may have felt and struggled with through his youth. This by far makes more sense than ANY explanation I have ever heard about this song.
Technically brilliant? You mean manipulate till there's nothing left of her actual voice? OK.
Pitch perfect? Then we listened to a different video. The first two lines are completely off pitch. The rest is often times a bit under. That's not pitch perfect.
“Breathy”. She evokes a smoky jazz club singer, but it is, by no means, a “dated” sound. Great jazz is timeless.
you are great , thank you for reaction .....RUSTY TAKE IT AWAY !!! again thank you cant wait for more Angelina reactions.
there are 2 artists in this age group who have the pure musical talent to be great, Angelina and Daneliya, others may go forward but these two are special
Thank You, Thank you, Thank You! Finally, I can stop harassing you, but I probably won't just because there is a treasure chest of goodies to see your reaction on. You are the #1 vocal coach and your opinion means a lot. As you have already heard she has 3 original songs and she has 2 songs that were written for her. One from a Russian composer who has an instrumental album and wanted his final song ( a Burns poem) on the album to be sung by Angelina "A Song For A" and as far in the other direction you can go an EDM duo wanted her to sing the lyrics on their dance song "Above The Water". I know you will hear a lot about her kind heart, but it is recorded that she has raised over 21 million euros for charities, and she is not a millionaire her self.
LOOOOOL!!! I appreciate you darling! Noted!
Something about this performance from angelina just..... chills me so much i don't worry as much as i do normally...this one was a weird watershed moment that I'll remember probably for as angelina herself remembers. Surreal
I remember when you sang for Simon and there is a big difference between her debut in front of Simon and your debut in front of Simon on the X Factor! lol I love Angelina's talent and her compassion for others. She is world class 💗
saw her sign at age 7 and have followed this True Artist ever since
As someone else stated...she writes, arranges, is a published author, and the story about the bare feet is legendary. She designs her own clothes....I feel so inferior and I'm 80 years old!
What she said!!
Thanks for your comments. And I also agree so much with what you said, she seems like a young version of Amy Winehouse.
Now I really want you to watch her rendition of “I put a spell on you”. You’ll go absolutely nuts for that! It’s a black-and-white video. She was nine years old there. I just wanna also comment that I’ve never seen you rewind a video before! Ha ha.
Her rendition, is a copy of Screaming Jay Hawkins. Check it out.
Donni Lloyd I know you don’t mean any disrespect but she does not copy Screamin Jay Hawkins. She honors his theatrical version by turning it into an awesome jazz blues masterpiece. She does her best to emulate the artists that inspire her
@@BlackWolfSpirit Sadly, you are wrong. But thank you for trying to defend me. In this video, she's holds a candle with Screamin Jay Hawkins on it. How you thought that I meant Nina Simone, I have NO CLUE.
Oh my god, yes please react to this one. She’s just incredibly talented.
Donni Lloyd I meant no disrespect to you. I was just being picky about the word copy. And I don’t think you meant it in a bad way either.
She has written three songs, Shield is one of them. She also played four instruments, spoke several languages, and wrote a best seller.
BEWARE! this is a long comment. I hope you have the patience to read to the end. You have a new subscriber! Thank you for discovering and reacting my favourite singer. Simon was correct when he said that he had never heard that version,. Angelina re-arranged it for the performance. She does this with many of her cover songs. Her fans call it "Angelinafying". The lady who first stood and clapped at the end of Angelina's performance was her maternal grandmother, Mery Zamani. On her right was Angelina's mother, Sara Astar, then Juliette, her sister and last her uncle, Michael Astar who is also her Manager.
My introduction to Angelina was on her first appearance at Norway's Got Talent and I didn't expect much from a 7 year old. Just a cute little girl, all nervous, rushing the song in parts, hesitating and then stumbling over or forgetting her words and generally acting her age and doing her best to get through a childish song like "Twinkle, twinkle little star". Well, it was a seven year old child, with wild hair and gaps in her mouth, where there once were Baby teeth. whom walked on to the stage but when she opened her mouth to speak the normal perception ended and things turned upside down. She confidently answered the questions put to her by a Judge. Declared she was going to sing a song by the legendary Billie Holiday. Gestured off stage for the technician to start the music and then started singing. The body of the 7 year old was still there but the voice wasn't. Or was it? I was surprised then and that surprise is still with me, some six years later.
I have followed her career since I saw that first video on TH-cam and in the six years she has been singing publicly she has mastered many musical genres, including Blues, Country, Disco, Jazz,Pop, R&B and Soul, EDM and Rock and covered songs first performed by many famous singers,like Adele, Whitney Houston, Nancy and Frank Sinatra, Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald, Lana del Ray, Gloria Gaynor, Elvis Presley, Louis Armstrong and many others. What is more extraordinary is that she takes ownership of every song she sings while still paying respect to the original. You will notice that she never goes into unnecessary theatrics. Never sings those high or low notes unless they are absolutely necessary. Never projects herself in any performance which says "look how good I am". She just sings the song as she feels it is meant to be sung. And I'll add an even more extraordinary item for you to consider, to show how unique she is. She has the innate ability not only to sing a song as emotionally as the song deserves but to be able to communicate those same emotions to the listener.
As I have noted, I have been following her career a long time and have listened to every interview she has given and every documentary about her and every performance she has ever given. What stands stands out for me is how a very shy and humble girl in her normal life, can be transformed into the perfect vehicle for the song she has chosen to sing, once she starts to sing.
Although the gift of singing and all her performances appear to be effortless, Angelina works very hard to ensure that the one she is going to record reflects what she sees as the correct way to meld both lyrics and melody. If you go to th-cam.com/channels/hM_lpT4shdnsez93QMJPig.html you will find many rehearsals where, not only do you get to see her rehearsing but being the "ordinary" girl she is (if indeed one is able to apply that adjective to her). Most of her performances are recorded in her home studio,either with background music or a single guitar. Most are done in one take. She treats the whole thing as a hobby. As we would have said when I was young. "There is no 'side' to her" She is completely transparent to the world.
Perhaps you would like to go back a few years and work forward. By doing so, you will come to the realisation that she is "unique" and I don't use that word loosely. There is truly no other singer who has her versatility and sheer ability to communicate the emotions of a song to her listeners. I doubt there is another singer who works so hard to to ensure that, when she sings the song, it is sung in such a way that her listener becomes enmeshed in the emotions. She doesn't just cover songs, she reinterprets them in such a way that the listeners understands the lyrics for the first time.
So, here a few recordings for you to consider.

One thing which several of the new reactors - and those who have returned to her have decided, is to follow her career from the start. If you should decide to do the same, go to Rusty Shackleford's website and look at the list he has compiled of Angelina songs in chronological order.Rusty Shackleford - Chronological order th-cam.com/channels/55am_6Y5-Fj4ri8xOInstA.html
She always sings barefoot when she was young she met a little girl who couldn't afford shoes so she gave the little girl her shoes, ever since then she sings barefooted. Special young lady.
I’m so so so happy you were able to finally able to react to Angelina. I mentioned in my comment when I asked you to react that she reminded me of a younger Ami Wienhouse. So glad you thought that as well. Thank you for reacting. I knew you would like her.
She wrote a million miles for her grandfather. Amazing.
Bout time..I’ve waited and wondered why you’ve skipped? She’s unusual, more traditional than Dimash, but quite unique in total range.
In an interview, she once said she loved the sound of Billie Holiday. There's a video comparing the two, side by side.
Ps: Angelina Jordan makes her own stage outfits!
I so agree. Freddie would be proud!
I was wondering if you'd ever react to this fabulous, talented, and all-around wonderful young lady.
YOU Glow girl! I honestly had the exact reactions as you the first time I saw Angelina perform this. Now show me some loove! 😉
Angelina has so far published 3 songs that she wrote herself, and she's working on an album said to be exclusively her own material, but due to the current situation she's been unable to get to the studio to finish the recordings.
The three original songs we can enjoy so far are:
*_What Is Life_* th-cam.com/video/Bv0r77KN7RA/w-d-xo.html _(is the secret finally explained?)_
*_Oslo_* th-cam.com/video/uxF-KiiSVoA/w-d-xo.html _(homage to her hometown)_
*_Shield_* th-cam.com/video/lQtUbVKb0vs/w-d-xo.html _(a song dedicated to her mother)_
Angelina's describes the lyrics for the song Shield as _"It's about someone you love. Where ever you are, this strong love protects you"._
By the way, it was funny to see you laugh that hard at the girl in the audience with the mouth wide open since you made a similar face yourself when Angelina started to sing ;)
This girls tone is a delight to listen to ,unbelievable.
Angelina won Norway’s got talent, as you heard. She already has an international audience, quite like Dimash does. This wasn’t the “birth” of her success at all. It may be the start of something in the US… I don’t know. It’s cool, as long as she’s successful everywhere else in the world.

Listen to her latest song she wrote it when her grandfather died . It’s beyond amazing. This girl is amazing!
Her song is called A million miles
Thanks for your fantastic first reaction to Angelina, Tara. isn't easy to react to an interpretation like this, you can only be impressed by the fact that Angelina at only 13 years old was able to face a challenge with such an iconic song as this and made her become her own song, with a fantastic reworking, a calm, powerful and terribly emotional interpretation and a great courage to take him to one of the most difficult audiences of the show. 🤗 😆
Angelina is not only what you saw in this perfect performance, she is much more, even very different, but everything she does is at a superlative level, she sang about 130 different interpretations, including covers, songs written for her and her originals written between 11 and 12 years old, if they seem enough
This is a very small part of her interpretations!

What I have been told, that one time she was somewhere where there was a homeless person. She took her shoes off and gave them to that person. Now she performed bare footed to remind us of the people that need our help.
dennis On a street in Tehran, she gave her shoes to a young shoeless orphan weighing people for money to feed her siblings. She always performs barefooted to remind HERSELF of that girl and all the children around the world in need.
Omgggg it’s about time!! I’ve been recommending her for sooo long! Her final performance was amazing as well!
Her name says it all - Angelina Jordan - fabulous!
Tara Simon, your reaction is priceless. Same as most of us had when we heard Angelina Jordan sing this song for the first time as well. Priceless.
All Angels glow! So does Angelina, you could see her halo in this performance!
I love Shield... she's a world talent ... she's done so much at such a young age. More than most will accomplish is a lifetime. She breaks the fear barrier if that makes sense.
I look forward to Angelina Jordan the concert July 10 in Norway. It will be a great experience!
Angelina Jordan is an artist that creates what others can only imagine.
She started singing jazz when she was 18 months. She won Norway’s Got Talent singing Billie Holliday and that genre.
You need to look up Rusty Shackleford. I’d start with her performances on NGT. Those songs were done when she was seven. Rusty has made a chronological list of her covers.
Tara you are such a gifted blessing and it's a joy to hear your commentary. I gotta say I busted out laughing from your laughter lol you were caught off guard that was hilarious :)
Thank you for another great uplifting encouraging reaction God bless you!
Angelina is obviously breathtaking, and your analysis was impressive - rapid-fire descriptive observations captured the essence of Angelina's talent and style. I am not a singer, but if I had any interest in being so, I would definitely hire you to help me. Your comments at the end also made me feel like I was in good company. Thank you!
I would like for you to react to her original song called Shield. It's a live performance. Thank you for reacting to Angelina Jordan, finally!
Angelina Jordan (born Angelina Jordan Astar on 10 January 2006) is a Norwegian child singer whose audition for the 2014 season of Norway's Got Talent at the age of seven, singing "Gloomy Sunday" in the style of Billie Holiday, became a viral video online, and led to worldwide press coverage. She went on to win the competition (at eight) with her performance of George Gershwin's "Summertime". Since then she has worked to raise millions of dollars on behalf of environmental causes and children's charities around the world. She always performs barefoot, after befriending a young shoeless girl while traveling when she was six years old. Jordan wrote a book about the experience and became the youngest published author in Norway.
She really is special...love how humble she is and what a gift she has. There is another artist that I think you'd enjoy...Diana (Deanna) Ankudinova singing Rechenka and also her version of Wicked Game...please watch Rechenka (River) first (she was on a TV show when she was 14) I think you'd appreciate her artistry. I've watched her numerous times and still get chills every time I hear her. Love your reaction videos!
THE MOST AWESOME MOMENT. THAT .EVERYBODY.WOULD. NEVER FORGET..THE.AWESOMENESS&😎
Hi Tara would love to see a reaction to Angelinas latest performance of Unchained Melody at the Noble Peace Prize concert
