    I'll add to the shoe story. She was 6, in Iran, it was cold, she met a little girl who was a street vendor and talked to her, probably in Farsi (Iranian). She ended up giving her her beloved green boots. She then went back to Norway and wrote in her diary (yes, this 6 year old had a diary) that when she did this a door opened in her heart and she climbed a stairway to heaven. "It is such great thing to help another person." After that she vowed to perform barefoot to remind us that there are children in need. She has since raised millions for kids' charities. She then wrote a book about this, illustrated by her grandmother, and became the youngest published author in Norway. Just your average 6 year old--genius.

    The First Hand Experience I had was that I was struck by a Thundebolt Lightning. She sang with such a soul as it was her song only. She renedered in the way as she had absorbed the complete song in herself. The Norwegian Band was so so Wonderful Complementing her at all the Step. Not a beat was like Music was overpowering her Voice.
    She is a Child and Vocal Prodigy who understands Music. You dont see such Kids in Today's generation. She was Nine and such an profound understanding of the Music and the Arrangement is her's. She is known as the Boss of all the Songs she covers.

    Welcome to Angelina's world. She is an extraordinary young artist with over 140 covers and other videos that she has recorded between the ages of 6 and 15 which is her current age. She won Norway's Got Talent at the age of 8 and 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.

    Angelina has sung all over the world for Nobel Laureates, heads of state, music icons, and other dignitaries. She has performed everywhere from small weddings of a few people, to London's O2 stadium, and Seoul South Korea with 40,000 people. She performs at jazz festivals, conferences, and charity benefits. At the age of 15, she is a seasoned performer with 9 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 Cyrus, 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.

    Molly many thanks for reacting to Angelina Jordan who was 9 years 2 months old for this performance. At the start of the beginning of the video you can see her writing her 'wishes' for how she wants to sing the song and then those wishes are reviewed by one of the musicians. Angelina has always created her own arrangements and is blessed with the most soulful, emotional voice of my 62 years. She is a true music prodigy but blessed with a set of skills unlike any before her. As talented as Angelina is, she is an even better person, humble and filled with empathy. Please take the time to read the biography I compiled for her. Born Angelina Jordan Astar on January 10, 2006 in Oslo, Norway to her Norwegian mother, Sara Astar and her Swedish father, Gerry Christian Slattman, who has chosen to keep his life private.
    Angelina started singing around 18 months of age after listening to Whitney Houston on TH-cam. She quickly became obsessed with listening to music videos and her maternal grandmother, Mery Zamani got Angelina interested in classic jazz. Mery Zamani is Iranian and was considered a prodigy as an artist and poet and married a Japanese man who passed away in 2019.
    Angelina speaks Norwegian, Farsi, English and Japanese.
    Angelina attended the Oslo Waldorf School and participated in the Oslo School of Music and Performing Arts after-school program, where she received vocal training starting around age 4. Angelina plays the piano, violin, guitar and flute and also paints. More recently she along with her grandmother have designed and made the clothing she wears on stage.
    At age 6, while traveling in the Middle East with her mother and grandmother, Angelina noticed a girl around her age standing on the side of the road asking people to step on her bathroom scale to be weighed in hopes of getting some money. Angelina took off her shoes so as to not get the scale dirty and stepped on the scale many times to make the girl feel better. Angelina befriends the girl who was not wearing shoes and has scars on her feet, and learns she is an orphan. The orphan girl tells Angelina how beautiful she thinks her shoes are. Angelina says her shoes don’t fit her well and she wants to give her shoes to the orphan girl. Angelina asked the girl what she wanted to be when she grew up and the girl replied, “I want to become a doctor, but that will never happen since I have no parents and I have siblings so I have to do whatever is necessary for us to survive.” The poor girl asked Angelina what she wanted to be when she grew up and Angelina replied that she wanted to sing for the whole world. The poor girl said she would pray every day so Angelina’s dream would come true.
    Angelina still says she thinks of that homeless girl every day and has always performed barefoot to remind her of all the children who are less fortunate. At age 9, she became the youngest published author in Norway’s history by writing a book about this encounter in the Middle East.
    Angelina asked her mother to enter her in Norway’s Got Talent (NGT) at age 5 but that talent show had a minimum age requirement of 7.
    Angelina at age 6 and 7 did record a few songs in a recording studio, most notably “I Who Have Nothing”, a truly remarkable performance for a 7 year old.
    Angelina is blessed with a deep voice with a beautiful rich tone and has always made her sound much older than her age. Many compare her voice to that of Amy Winehouse. Her voice is highly emotional which is very rare for a young girl and some people can’t accept that such a soulful voice can come from someone who has not had enough life experience. One vocal coach on TH-cam recently said, “If you have a song and want to have more emotion added to that song, have Angelina sing it.”
    At age 7, Angelina’s audition on NGT was a cover of Billie Holiday’s “Gloomy Sunday”, a song which was banned by a number of European countries during World War II because authorities worried the song would increase the suicide rate. Truly bizarre that this is the song to launch the career of a child musical prodigy. One of the judges on NGT cried.
    The next performance on NGT was her cover of Billie Holiday’s “I’m a Fool to Want You” singing acapella which was required by NGT unless the singer also played an instrument while singing. This was the Judge’s cut round of the competition and was not performed in front of an audience. Angelina’s acapella performance is astounding especially for a girl who had just turned 8.
    In the Semi Final round of NGT, Angelina sang “Bang Bang” which was written by Sonny Bono and was first performed by his wife Cher but is best known sung by Nancy Sinatra. The improvement in each performance is incredible even though there were only a couple months between them.
    In the Finals, Angelina did a cover of George Gershwin’s, “Summertime” and won the contest, capturing 46% of the votes from the ten finalists.
    Angelina had become a star in her native Norway and her videos on TH-cam went viral. She gave a few concerts during the summer of 2014 while 8 years old.
    On June 27, 2018 Jordan performed “Fly Me to the Moon” for Quincy Jones in The O2 Arena in London.
    Angelina performed on America’s Got Talent The Champions which aired in January 2020. She earned the Golden Buzzer for her performance of her unique arrangement of Queen’s Bohemian Rhapsody. She sang her cover of Goodbye Yellow Brick Road in the Finals but didn’t make it into the final 5 contestants. There is much debate over how and why Angelina was eliminated.
    Angelina has covered more than 130 songs from 80 different artists, all of which are available on TH-cam. Angelina has always made changes to each song she covers and often her version is preferred over the original. On TH-cam, search on Angelina Jordan every song as a fan put all songs in one file.
    In August 2020, her manager and uncle Michael Astar announced Angelina has signed with Republic Records as their highest priority new artist. On 11/6/20 her first single on Republic Records, Million Miles written by Angelina, was released. She dedicated it to anyone who has lost a loved one. Her 2nd single, 7th Heaven is a jazzy, upbeat, inspirational song and was also written by Angelina. Angelina’s family requested Republic Records to allow her to have as normal a childhood as possible until she completes high school and so far it appears that is the plan.
    Angelina Jordan is a humble, compassionate young lady of very few words when she is not singing. She is on videos saying she wants to sing for the entire world and also that she wants to improve the quality of life for all the children on Earth. She has helped to raise millions of dollars for children’s charities and environmental causes.
    Musicians who have worked with her have been quoted saying Angelina is among the most talented musicians they have worked with and she is the boss in the room when rehearsing. Remarkable for a girl of few words when not singing. For Angelina, it is all about the music and not her.
    Personally, I find Angelina’s voice the most soulful and emotional voice of my lifetime. Angelina as a person, inspires me to be a better person and live longer to listen to her sing for as long as I can.

    At only 9 years old it was already very apparent that we are witnessing the birth of a legend. It was even apparent at 7. And even more impressive than any one of her performances, is how consistently she is this good, and in how many ways she is able to express the emotions of the songs she sings. Just as you said, you can't fake this. I encourage everyone to go check out Angelina's official and cover channels. There's so much more to hear from Angelina!
    And I always try to leave this little bio for those just discovering Angelina, so that you can learn a little more about her background and her kind and caring soul.......
    *Angelina Jordan*
    - Angelina Jordan was born Jan 10 2006 in Oslo, Norway. She is currently 15
    - 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)...barefoot. 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. After she won NGT, they did not want her to be thrust into stardom before she had a chance to grow up as a normal child, and get her education. They allowed 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 came in. Over the years since NGT, they have turned down offers from many major record labels and even disney.
    - Angelina has covered more than 130 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 five of her own original songs: "What is Life", "Shield", "Oslo", "Million Miles", and 7th Heaven" (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 beautiful world in my head", and you can always hear the results of that. When Angelina sings it is pure soul, pure emotion, pure music.
    - Updates: On Aug 26, 2020 Angelina's Manager/Uncle announced in an interview that they have decided on Republic Records as the best fit for Angelina and she is now signed with them as their "highest priority new artist".
    On Nov 6 she released her first single under Republic... "Million Miles"!
    On March 19 2021 Angelina released her latest single "7th Heaven"
    She has done so much already, but at 15 she is just getting started!!!

    To say she has had that "presence" all her life is probably an understatement. There is a clip of her at 18 months old, laying in her bed, when someone puts a karaoke mic in her hand and she starts singing along with Whitney Houston's version of I Will Always Love You, her arm thrown out as she puts all of her little toddler voice into the chorus. I'm sure it was just a cute video of a little girl singing at the time but in reality it was a fuse that was lit and she has never stopped working at her craft. People wonder how a child can sound like she has years and years of experience it is quite simply because by the time she recorded this at 9yo she had already been singing 7-1/2 years.

    It took you longer than most to reach the point of total disbelief, but you got there. This wasn’t her first rodeo, by this time she had already won Norway’s Got Talent and started to tour the world singing for everything from the Nobel Prize ceremony to children’s charities, to you name it. Now at 15 she is signed with Republic Records and her career is taking off in earnest. By the way, she was requested by Quincy Jones himself to perform a song he arranged for Frank Sinatra, “Fly me to the moon”, for his 85th birthday celebration at O2 arena in London. Yeah, he was impressed too, calling her the most influential performer since Michael Jackson, and she refers to him as her best friend in the music industry.

    You touch on one of the many things that amaze me about Angelina Jordan. Off stage she looks to be this sweet natured, gentle, slightly adorably awkward normal girl, but the moment she walks on stage she becomes supremely confident - as if she was a 40 year veteran. This video is the perfect example, 9 years old, fronting a world class studio band with not a hint of nerves and in total control of everything around her. Same goes for her many live performances from age 6 on. Its just surreal to watch her transformation on stage.

    Most reactions focus on Angelina's voice and stage presence. In some reactions, like yours, people wonder what a little nine years old girl can know about the love problems of the grown ups? Well, it seems she knows a whole lot more than that about the world of adults. In order to get exactly the sound she wanted to get, that little 9 years old girl successfully surrounded herself with the best musicians, very skilled sound technicians in a well equipped studio, a really talented cameraman and the director Peir Heimly to make this timeless music video piece of art.
    At the beginning of the clip we see Angelina writing on a sheet of music and then we see the musician reading Angelina's instructions. This establishes clearly that she's the one calling the shots in the studio. She's the one who heard the original Screaming Jay Hawkins song, changed the lyrics here and there, removed things here, added things there, and rearranged the whole damn thing.
    And I agree with you that her version is unlike any other.
    I have viewed countless reactions since I first saw «I put a spell on you» on March 19, 2017 (according to my browser's history). Some reactions are better than others. But good or bad, all those reactions pull me back into Angelina's world. In these times where the whole world seems to be collapsing, Angelina's music is really helping me stay sane. And reactions like yours help me reconnect to my original emotion, deeper and deeper as more layers of consciousness are added to the song.

    One of the reasons , not just her singing, that people say she is a prodigy is that since she was 6 yrs old she has arranged the songs she sings and rewrote the lyrics if needed. The note she wrote for the producer was some last minute arrangement changes. He said the reason he smiled was because the request was so polite. There are other reasons but you will have so many comments telling her story much better than I ever could.

Her span of styles and genres, even before 10 years old, is hard to believe, but just listen. Now in her teens, Angelina’s voice is unique and beautiful, and you’ll see that she puts her heart and soul into every song. Yes, try Bohemian Rhapsody for Angelina at 13, but try Summertime to see an 8 year old giving us beautiful, nuanced jazz. She’s the best.

    Angelina Jordan was 9 years old when this song was recorded. It was a tribute to Screamin Jay Hawkins who was quite a character. Most of the times he performed the song rising from a coffin in a voodoo style. Angelina is Norwegian, her full name is Angelina Jordan Astar. Her father is Swedish, her mother is Norwegian from a Japanese father and Iranian Mother Mery Zamani who is a poet and a painter and was a child prodigy in her own rights. She started singing at the age of one and a half when she fell in love with Whitney Houston’s “I Will Always Love You”. A year later she discovered Jazz through her grandmother and showed lot of interest in artists like Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald, Dinah Washington, and Louis Armstrong.
    Angelina pestered her mother to enter her in “Simons Show” as she called it from the age of 3. Her mother relented and entered her in Norway Got Talent at the age of 7 where she auditioned with Billie Holiday’s Gloomy Sunday. She went ahead to win the the big prize at the finals where she received 46% of the votes while the remaining 9 finalists combined received 54%. Angelina said she likes singing because she wants to bring joy and love to the whole world. One of her dreams from a very young age was to sing at the Nobel Peace Prize concert. She accomplished that at the age of 8 singing Louis Armstrong’s What a Wonderful World.
    After winning NGT, she was flooded with offers from major music labels as well as Disney but they were all turned down by her and her family in order for her to continue her education and to protect her artistic integrity. Her uncle/manager in an interview last year he talked about music labels top executives who would fly to Norway on private jets with huge contracts offers but would leave mad and frustrated because they never expected being turned down.
    Angelina is fluent in Norwegian as well as in English. She also speaks some Swedish which is very close to Norwegian and probably learned it from her father. She also speaks Farsi which she learned from her grandmother as well as some Japanese that she picked up from her grandfather as well as her mom and uncle who lived for a period of time in Japan. She actually performed a Japanese song at a concert in Japan.
    Most of her performances after NGT were for charitable children organizations where she helped to raise millions.
    At the age of 6 and while travelling in another country with her family, she came across a young orphaned shoeless girl who was weighing people on a bathroom scale for some coins in order to support herself and her siblings. After chatting with her for a while and without prompting from her family, she gave her shoes to the orphan girl. She recorded that incident in her diary and vowed to always sing barefoot when doing that in public to remember that girl and to remind herself and us about the many needy children around the world. At the age of 9 she wrote and published a book about that encounter making her Norway’s youngest published author. Proceeds from that book are donated to children charities.
    Angelina Jordan has about 140 songs in her repertoire. Late last year she signed with Republic Records as their highest priority new artist. Her versatility is unmatched. She will wow and surprise you all the time. 15 years old today who is an excellent role model for today’s youth and her best is yet to come.

    Molly, thanks for this first shocked and very beautiful reaction with Angelina (you are one of the very few reactors that recognizes the photo on the candle). This is the homage of Angelina to Screamin' and isn't an imitation, rather a tribute to a singer she has much listened to and admires. Not all adults know this great performer, but certainly the only girl of 9 years in the world who knows him and who also thinks of singing his song without any fear, is she. It's incredible that this adaptation is all her own (the sheets written) and that at that age she was able to evaluate and transform, according to her sensitivity, such a particular and powerful song 😊 ❤️ This is Angelina, the incredible magical little girl and I share your opinion that this is probably one of the best reinterpretations made by a singer in over 60 years of this song.
    If you want you can start from here a beautiful journey of discovery with one of the best singers of now and of the future, it will surely be very satisfying 🤗

    Listen to Rusty Shackleford..he’s your man for AJ..welcome aboard )) btw this was her own arrangement..she was the creative driving force behind the production..hence the prodigy description...enjoyed your reaction..thanks..)) subd..my suggestion would be to look at her performances during Norway’s Got Talent..the musical birth of a legend..

    When I watched this video I had been aware of her existence for a couple of years. And your face went through a prettier variation of my all my facial expression of wonder, disbelief, denial, acceptance and finally OMG this is fantastic all those years back.
    I agree - it was never "just the vocal ability" for me neither. It is that brutal musical talent being able to convey the musical emotion that gets me. Every single time. And if you follow up on her, you will discover that she has grown into her very unique and astonishing "signature voice" from her growing up as a pre-teen experimenting a lot with "emulating" (not copying!) the vocal qualities of everyone from Elvis to Aretha F to Billie H to this close to original Hawkin to ... insert a classic.
    She is also unique because she has left behind a breadcrumb trail of herself sitting on a sofa at home - standing up at home, some TV appearances, hanging out with a guitarist to study a song on her channel growing up. A lot of it filmed by her grandmother - herself a known artist of visual arts. In addition, there are lots of fan videos and all that. So her adolescence is documented so amazingly well. Quality is varying - and she is not always "perfect" (although some fans think so). I disagree with the fans who believe her to be "Midas". She is an artist in development, secure enough to post "sketches".
    So heads up on that. Some "fans" can get really ugly if anyone say "that was a nice practice session" instead of concluding that everything AJ ever did is the best version ever recorded.
    (This stems from AJ joining in for AgT "global edition" a few years back. Some of the fans she picked up there seem to think she is some "second coming")
    This rendition though - it defies logic and reason. I have started working out again after lockdown. Partly because I love to scramble up mountains, and partly because I want to be alive to hear what this human will do in 15 and 25 years.
    I enjoyed your reaction very much. Thank you, Molly.

    Will become the greatest singer of the 21.

    This may be the most impressive performance by anybody that I have ever seen, certainly of this century. There are so many aspects of it that defy belief. Add to it the knowledge that she did the vocal arrangements herself (imagine TEACHING a nine-year old to do that.) and it is simply magnificent. Do yourself a favour: go back and watch her channel Billie Holiday and Nina Simone on Norway's got talent when she was 7-8. After that, any of the 140-some videos she has on TH-cam should be plenty to keep you coming back for more. Angelina is a genius, and a very sweet and loving individual. You will enjoy discovering her.

    Two fantastic new artists for you to react to ! They are both Russian ! Dimash Kudaibergen and Diana Ankudinova ;! Dimash is technically the finest make singer on the planet and Diana has the most unique female voice you will ever hear ! Dimash's rendition of "SOS " is a good start ! It shows his range and performance qualities ! Diana's version of "Human " and "Wicked Games " are mesmerising and outstanding ! I'm glad you started your musical journey with Pentatonic and Angelina Jordan two of my faves ! I hope you will do more musical artists on your channel! ! Thank you so much ! 🤗👍🇨🇦🇨🇦♥️♥️

    Old Old soul in a very young body..that voice shouldn't come out of a body that size. She is now 15 and 6' tall and even more incredible. She is truly a vocal freak of nature, especially when you find out she arranges all of her music. Her Bohemian Rhapsody is one for the Ages from AGT. "all I ask" and her new originals are awesome..well everything she touches is.

    Great reaction to a vocal tour-de-force! You've done it now. You have fallen into the vortex of Angelina Jordan who arguably brings the most confident, versatile, seemingly effortless, and fearless vocal artistry found today (whether measured across artists, genres, or decades). You may think this an exaggeration but listen to a few more of her many performances (125+ covers plus original songs - all on YT) and you will see! She has been performing at a high level all over the world since age 8 when she won Norway's Got Talent singing Billie Holiday , Nancy Sinatra , and Gershwin. It is the rare singer that can, as Angelina has done, go from Queen to "Screamin" Jay Hawkins to Adele to Elvis to Whitney Houston to Etta James to Amy Winehouse (and many others in between) and do them all justice! She fearlessly matches the big names music icons from the past note-for-note and does it again and again. You'll see!
    If you want to hear music, listen to anyone. If you want to feel music, listen to Angelina. She will stagger you with her ability to find and bring forth the 'essence', the emotional message of nearly any song. You have far to go with Angelina. She is equally comfortable and equally able to impact us whether singing a cappella, accompanied only by a piano or guitar, in front of professional studio musicians or a 40 piece military band. With her immense vocal toolkit, arranging ability (yeah, that too, since about 8yo or so) and the work ethic to make what she does only 'seem' effortless, she will hopefully be touching hearts for a long time to come. Wait until you find out why she performs barefooted. Why God has performed the miracle of touching the world with one of such talent, musical IQ, commitment, and generosity as Angelina we can wonder but we must all marvel. Welcome aboard the AJ train! Please react to more of her impressive library.
    It is truly a conundrum when we try to rationalize here how it is possible that this tiny sweet-faced 9yo Norwegian girl can step up to a microphone, flip some switch within her, become this "beast-mode" version of herself (most probably named "AJ don't play"), deliver an extraordinary and musically and socially sophisticated performance, then just-like-that return to the pensive young lady once again... As you said there aren't the right words to describe this! "I Put a Spell On You" has been covered many times and is recognized as a classic, yet almost never is the tone of the original 1956 "Screamin" Jay Hawkins version captured. This is because Hawkins was the original shock rock guy (think Ozzy Osbourne type craziness) and his style is difficult to emulate and also because his dated delivery is uncomfortable and stereotypical to our modern sensibilities. How AJ incorporates many of his vocal elements [usually omitted by most singers] shows another aspect of her musical IQ and arranging genius (not to mention her masterful control of her vocal instrument equaled by few others regardless of age).

    Your stunned reaction to Angelina’s performance is not uncommon, especially among those who know how this whole music thing works. Over time, I have gotten used to being in awe of her development as a vocal artist. Your comparison to a conductor is so much on target. She not only sings but arranges in a manner that allows everyone in the process to excel. You will have many folks make suggestions regarding your choices of next reactions. Best to you and thanks for your thoughtful reaction.

    What did I think after I first heard this song? It was the first song that I heard from Angelina and I thought it was staged and she was pantomiming. It forced me into researching her other songs and it was then that I realized that she is the real deal. May I suggest that you go 4 years in the future to when she is 13 years old and listen to her on America's Got Talent Champions song (Bohemian Rhapsody) where she received a golden buzzer when competing against many other artists and acts who either won their competition or placed very high is the voting. These competitors were from all around the world (Angelina had won Norway's Got Talent the year before this song was recorded and she started the competition at 7 and won at 8-years-old). Angelina is a true enigma - aside from her singing talent, she arranges her songs and is perfect or nearly perfect in all of her productions. Many of her songs are recorded on the first take, and every release brings to light something new about her abilities. You are one of my favorite reactors. Thank you for this extraordinary reaction.

    I'm sure I won't be the only Angelina fan (she calls us her Angels) subscribing to follow your journey of discovery with this young lady. You will get TONS of requests for any number of the other 140 or so videos she has on TH-cam. All of which I might add, are impressive in their own right. She has learned from listening to all the greats from Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald, Etta James, James Brown, Nina Simone, Frank Sinatra, Elvis, Amy Winehouse, Rhianna, and Adele, and you will hear bits of all of them when she sings, sometimes more pronounced than others, but make no mistake, she is not imitating any of them. She has her own style, and is uniquely "Angelina". She owns nearly every cover she does, and in my opinion, does the majority of them better than the original. I feel there is no genre she can't do, and the more you explore her, you will see why us Angels feel the way we do. Thank you for doing this reaction, as it made my evening. Even after hearing most of her songs hundreds of times, she still manages to tug at my heart and pull tears from my eyes.
