She don't care if you don't want her she's yours right now and for the rest of your natural born days so get used to it you are now umber her spell just as all her fans are
Since I found this little Angel sing " I put spell on you", I can't stop amazing her and enjoying her heavenly voice..I like a lot of singers and their songs, but I admit that I like her most. There must be an angel from heaven blowing heavenly wind into every note she sing..🆒🆒
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 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 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.

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 (135+ 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! 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 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... There aren't words for 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. Yet Angelina respectfully sings his own song in a manner that exceeds his (Hawkin's image is on the candle she holds at the start of her video). She starts low, rising in intensity throughout and finishes in an unexpected and practically operatic style. You must go and listen to Hawkins' original (and throw in a couple of "famous" covers as well) to see the true genius in how AJ incorporates many of his vocal elements [usually omitted by most singers]. This 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). "Screamin" Jay Hawkins original "I put A Spell on You" th-cam.com/video/orNpH6iyokI/w-d-xo.html
Not bad for a self taught 9 year old. Take a fifties classic song by Screaming Jay Hawkins, arrange the music and then sing like a 40 year old jazz singer. This girl is a gift to us all. Welcome to Angelina's world.
Yeah, this is totally unbelievable because she arranged it and controlled every aspect of this performance, and for a 9 year old to understand what she wants at this age is not understandable. Yes she was on AGT Champions because she won Norway’s Got Talent at 8, and it wasn’t even close, she won with 46% of the vote in the finals out of 10 performers! She didn’t win AGT Champions because she wouldn’t sign with SYCO, she has now signed with Republic Records, she’s now 15.
1:20 she was writing instructions to the band on how she wants them to play. And she only APPEARS to be a child, at least while doing anything musical.
Great reaction, glad you remember her! Need to go deeper in the Rabbit Hole and get ready to be literally blown away, from age 6 to current age of 15. Every thing she touches is Gold! God Bless!
You should go back to where it all started on Norways got talent 7 with her performances Gloomy Sunday Summertime and Bang Bang you shot me down...amazing 💚
We will likely never know the truth, but the rumor is that she did not win AGT because her family refused to sign Simon's contract. She did sign with Republic Records in 2020 under a contract much more favorable to her than Simon's. She is only 15 and she and her family want her to have as much of a normal childhood as is possible with such a prodigious talent, so she is not yet being heavily promoted. There is an album in the works, and all of us Angels are anxiously awaiting its release.
They have a CRAZY contract to sign just for being a part of AGT! plus I wish just ONCE someone would tell the truth when they ask "what would you do if you won the million dollars?" "Well Simon, Since the million dollars is spread out over 40 years and after taxes its about 16K A YEAR....I will just continue to work my day job and hope this was my real chance at becoming famous to make money in OTHER ways :)"
She started singing jazz at 18 months old, studio recording at 6. Won norways got talent at 7 . Writing her own arrangements at age 8. This when she just turned 9, by which time she played 3 instruments spoke 3 languages and was the youngest published book author in norways history. She makes her own clothing and loves art. Her grandmother is iranian artist mery zamani. No she didnt write this song, its by screaming Jay hawkins who is on the mug she holds up. That guy isnt her father, he is the musical director in the studio with members of the norwegian military band and angelina is writing the arrangements for the band
I have to admit... I am hooked on the Angel ever since I heard her sing. And I must have listened to this particular song about a 1000x's along with the rest of her songs. But now I find myself just viewing all of these to see the reaction that people give when listening to her for the 1st time. I am getting hooked on the reactions. It amazes me how people react to her voice at different ages. It is so entertaining to me not just her singing but viewing the reactions of others. I'm hook on both Angel's voice but also all those reactions.
Esta niña es un fenómeno, así como los grandes de la música, no puedo dejar de escuchar su música es bellísima, gracias por darnos ese privilegio de escucharla
When she was on AGT she didn’t win because Simon offered her a lifetime contract. And they turned him down that’s why she didn’t win. She was also asked to go on AGT she didn’t go on the show because of her own wishes she was asked to go there. She won Norway’s got talent when she barely turned eight years old.
To the down-thumbers. I feel you. Teary eyes, shaking hands from watching something that really questions core elements of physics, wave theory and acoustics by asking "where is the resonance volumes hiding in that tiny body?" It is not easy to hit those tiny thumbs on a screen. I mean, this content creator shows off impressive musical memory by remembering her older self from a silly talent show some few years ago (and since this is internet - do not be triggered - I was not saying that her performances on the show were silly at all - youtube is so trigger-happy one must cover all bases since forever). The reason I am not triggered by ALL reactions to this video are similar is because I know from my own experience that "this is not even possible" is the last coherent thought one has when encountering this performance. I personally started laughing the first time I watched it since my brain simply stopped bothering with coherent thoughts - probably because I am a physicist
Indeed she was "way older" on AGT "the Champions" -- 13! (four years older than in this performance). You might consider reacting to more of Angelina's "older" stuff, like from 7 or 8 years ago. For example, she was on "the Champions" because she won Norway's Got Talent (she's from Oslo -- but almost always sings in English, which is a second language for her). Try some her NGT songs: 1) First Audition: "Gloomy Sunday" (Billie Holiday cover) -- th-cam.com/video/d3gSho9yf88/w-d-xo.html 2) Judges' Cut: "I'm a Fool to Want You" (also a Billie Holiday cover, done a capella) -- th-cam.com/video/LXknLZDoRVQ/w-d-xo.html 3) Semi-Final: "Bang Bang" (Nancy Sinatra cover) -- th-cam.com/video/pcBoB49Gxn8/w-d-xo.html 4) Final: "Summertime" (George Gershwin from Porgy & Bess) -- th-cam.com/video/bnpFsCNKzFg/w-d-xo.html If you only want to do one of these, I suggest the last one, since that's when she won the whole show. But each of them is incredible in its own right. Angelina is simply a prodigy, and this was just the beginning of her public career.
last jan she was on agt champions 13 yr sang stripped down versions of bohemian rhapsody and yellow brick road won golden buzzer...to get her to appear agt released her from all bs contracts...won norways got talent at 8...15 and a half now...
U have just boarded the AJ express, welcome to the world of the barefooted princess and jazz queen Angelina Jordan. Have fun song requests will keep coming, no wrong picks. Birthday January 10th she is 15.
Welcome to the 🌍 of Angelina the princess of jazz music 🎷 who does not wear shoe🦶🦶 during her performance 🗣 This song was originally by the screaming G. Okins from the 1940s. And yes she was in America Got Talent in the Champions season (13 yaers old) and that's because at the age of 7 she won Norway 🇧🇻 Gut Talent. Today she is 15 years old and in total she has over 140 cover versions of a song on TH-cam from a wide variety of styles and also some of her original songs. She signed last year on "Republic Recordings" and is on her way to her first international record ... ENJOY 🗣🎙
Ioi no that was the musical director she was giving notes to. She didn't write it. The Original is Scream'n Jay Hawkins. This is her arrangement and homage to the original. She started singing at 1-1/2.
Mr. D I would like to introduced to you everyones Angel, a legend for the next centuries to come, Miss Angelina Jordan. She is a worlds treasure as you will come to not only understand, but feel. She weilds the power of Thors hammer as she strikes you deep into your soul with her presence and voice. Have fun, oh btw she didnt win AGT champions because she refused the Simons contract before the show ended so obviously she only got so far.
A little information as of 2020 over 132 songs all covers are her own arrangements including Spell what you see is her making changes to arrangements probably Producer reading. She signed last year with Republic Records and it has been said that she has 100% control of everything Angelina. At 15 are you kidding? Always performs barefooted for you to find out why.
She's the Barefoot Princess. She is a Musical Prodigy she loves Jazz & Blues. She does many who have Passed and some who still walk upon our Earth. Her Voice Changes with each Rendition especially those she Pays Homage Too.
_"You've got to be kidding me!"_ I wonder if that term derives from _'to act like a kid'_ Well, Angelina is a kid, but as we know from this performance and many other performances that she's no joke, she's the real deal!
She won Norway's got talent when she was 7-8 years old She did this cover when she was 9 ( she arranged this version, but the song was written by screamin' Jay Hawkins many decades ago) she went on America's got Talent while she was 13 or so, got the golden buzzer (this was about 1-2 years ago I believe) She has many great covers and some original songs as well. She started singing along to Jazz music when she was 2-3 years old she always performs barefoot on stage( there's a story behind that)
Thank you for your great first reaction to Angelina. Oh, my friend, you are in for the ride of your life! You will be inundated with other comments here that will give you excellent information about Angelina, her prodigious talent and her huge humanitarian heart. We all know your main purpose is to react to the performers (and you do it very well) but, let me just say, the more reactions you do to her, the more you will see your subscriptions, likes, views and comments go through the roof! That’s what TH-cam is looking for from you. Just know that Angelina’s millions of fans around the world are very, VERY loyal and will follow you to the ends of the Earth for as long as you continue to react to her!
@@ReactionsbyD , This one, Bohemian Rhapsody from AGT, and her tribute to Whitney Houston "I Have Nothing" are probably the most requested, but everyone has their favorites, and I don't really think she has a bad one, just some that are better. My favorites are her latest original "7th Heaven" th-cam.com/video/9rLiWvwzbCA/w-d-xo.html and her cover of what used to be an Adele song, that in my opinion, Angelina now owns, "All I Ask" th-cam.com/video/8gJuprckBxI/w-d-xo.html and a demo she did at 10 years old that was leaked to the internet, "I'm Still Holding Out For You" (audio only) th-cam.com/video/Dv8mjCh5iiE/w-d-xo.html But as I said, I don't think there are any bad ones. Here is a link to Rusty Shacklefords (our Angelina expert) playlist (145 videos) of all her videos. Just go through it and pick out what you like, and then try to deal with how old she is when she is singing each song. LOL th-cam.com/play/PL2v8kgVeo4EbQD6l_WAVjOfItquzW7oEc.html
The song was by screaming Jay Hawkings in 1956. This is her arrangement of the song. She did this 2 months after her 9th birthday. She's one of the best singers in the world. Has 144 songs on utube covering many of the greatest singers of all time. Often better than the original's. Watch her singing every time we say goodby at age 10 . There is a clip.of her singing I will allways love you at 18 months old. The girl with a thousand voices,the barefoot angel and the BOSS
Thank you for your genuine reaction. Here is an introduction to Angelina for you and your viewers who might not be familiar with her. 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. Thank you for reading and Keep up the good work.
Angelina arranges all of her songs, and picks which ones to sing. She hands her “wish list” to the music director, and on the candle is a picture of Screamin Jay Hawkins who wrote the song in 1956, check out his creepy black and white version. The woman with Angelina is her grandmother. Angelina is 9 years old here. This is a recording studio not her home.
She wrote notes on the arrangement of the song. The song is a cover of Screamin's Jay Hawkins' version of the song. The pictur of the guy in the candle is Screamin' Jay Hawkins. She puts her own spin on his version.
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 ❤️💙 If there was ever a reason to believe in something greater than us, or in reincarnation, Angelina Jordan is it ❤️💙 Loved your reaction!!! ❤️💙 ***RIP SCREAMIN JAY HAWKINS*** ❤️💙
D you were wrong at the beginning but it does not matter, you just witnessed a 9 years 2 months old musical genius, she’s now 15 and her voice is insane. Welcome into Angelina world, hope you will do more reactions of her.
She was 9 years old in this one, about a year after she won Norway's Got Talent, and she was already a fairly seasoned artist. She didn't write the song (it was written by Screamin' Jay Hawkins i 1956), but she did rearrange it. You saw her in AGT The Champions.
She's 15 now but she started singing in the womb...and her foundation is blues jazz introduced to her by her grandmom. She can outperform anyone in any genre. Nobody but nobody can can emote so much emotion when she sings. Her audience is a mix of all ages, colors and nationalities...she's a living proof that music is not only the greatest form of art but its universal....thanks for a great reaction video...
No shoes 8yrs she did some composing of the song by Screaming Jay Hawkings. Check her out at 6yrs 1st studio of I Who Have Nothing then at 7yrs with her Performances of all Jazz on Norways Got Talent and Won!!! She Just turned 16 on January 10th. She started singing at 18months. Oh Norwegian is her 1st Language yet she has many other Languages in her pocket. Yes at 13 yrs Americas Got Talent with Bohemian Rhapsody. She's done over 160 covers and many of her own. Welcome to Angelina Jordans World the Barefoot Princess. She's a Musical Prodigy. The family didn't have a winner as her Family wants her schooling First

"Above the water": th-cam.com/video/SC3F0bKKk3U/w-d-xo.html - interesting voice - even if EDM is not my preferred genre ;-) ... here her "mini concert" from AGT the Champions (Watch out: With these videos other reactors have the most problems with copyright claims...): "Bohemian Rhapsody": th-cam.com/video/7gQljxeaNuM/w-d-xo.html "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road": th-cam.com/video/NVRWYEk8T3A/w-d-xo.html “Someone You Loved": th-cam.com/video/0go_TIm4jtI/w-d-xo.html ...and for those, who like to hear it with the audio from the rehearsal without the noise from the audience at the performance a version edited from pa1189j : th-cam.com/video/O6Jw-ETH1mA/w-d-xo.html Besides she is mostly making her very own arrangement there are some very interesting videos of her, where she uses the original arrangement or a big one of someone else like "I Have Nothing" (Whitney Houston Tribute) th-cam.com/video/eTcvvO6B3Io/w-d-xo.html or "Fly Me To The Moon" in the arrangement of Quincy Jones (rehearsal with concert mixed audio for his birthday party in the O2 arena): th-cam.com/video/OMkwoqUNNkE/w-d-xo.html . And here is a video where it is explained (with English subtitles) why she performs barefoot: th-cam.com/video/A-OKLslO74Y/w-d-xo.html and here an Interview in the Norwegian TV (with English subtitles) from 2015 after she has published her book about the story why she is barefoot when performing: th-cam.com/video/-cCLDY0CSZ8/w-d-xo.html In addition to school she got also vocal training at the Oslo School of Music and Performing Arts after-school program (I read, that this school said, they couldn't teach her more stuff because she has all learned what she could learn in this school ;-) ) - and btw. she plays also grand piano, violin, flute and guitar, make her arrangements herself, wrote a book, sew clothes for herself (partly with art from her grandma like in her first AGT performance and in her music video "Shield"). So she is a real all-rounder and I think all her fans are eager to see and hear what she is doing next... All the other things like more recommendation, chronological playlists and so on you can read in the comments of the mega-fans like Fernando F., Rusty (AJ videos in chronological order th-cam.com/channels/55am_6Y5-Fj4ri8xOInstA.html), Andy Schnell, ... And a little explanation: Her cover "I put a spell on you" b/w studio version at 9yo (th-cam.com/video/nwFloCPXzCs/w-d-xo.html - btw. she made most of her cover arrangements by herself!) based on the original from Screemin' Jay Hawkins (from 1956) - Live: th-cam.com/video/7kGPhpvqtOc/w-d-xo.html or another version of it: th-cam.com/video/orNpH6iyokI/w-d-xo.html and here a version from 1990 in Tokyo - I feel, this is like the version Angelina has taken as the model, but I don't know it ( ;-) ): th-cam.com/video/Bb9ag8bch_U/w-d-xo.html or as Audio-Studio-Version: th-cam.com/video/82cdnAUvsw8/w-d-xo.html) that's real fun - if you watch this too and may be after this watch Angelinas cover again you will find out that Angelinas cover is a real tribute to Jay Hawkins :-D Btw. I read somwhere that her grandma was in person at a concert of SJH in Japan (as she, AJs mother and uncle lived there some years - AJs granpa is Japanese) and there AJs granma bought this candle as a souvenier ;) ...I hope this story isn't a HOAX :)) Thanks a billion again for your reaction! … and see you soon with your next AJ reactions - with greetings from Berlin/Germany :-D Best regards Andreas
Angelina Jordan's performance on AGT with her arrangement of Bohemian Rhapsody that got the Golden buzzer, was one of the greatest live performances, and missed by many, on her second performance with her arrangement of Yellow Brick Road, she sealed her place in History and everyone new she is the "Next Level Event" the world will know and love her soon.
Hola!! Me encantó tu sorpresa!! Cada cover y tema propio de Angelina te sorprenderá!! Por favor, escucha mucho más de ella!! Saludos desde Argentina!!🧉🧉🧉🤗🤗🤗
Angelina has amazing flexibility as can be witnessed by the following four songs: ---- Shield [as 12-year old, Angelina wrote song. As 12-year old, sung on very popular Scandinavian talk show Skavlan (2.5 to 3 million viewers per show): th-cam.com/video/lQtUbVKb0vs/w-d-xo.html] [In interview (changes to English at about 0:36 mark) before Angelina sung, paraphrasing, she said that when she sings she goes into endless other world that is full of happiness. She said that song is about someone you love and whose strong love protects you wherever you are. Angelina said song's sound was inspired by Bond films. Her favorite Bond film songs are Diamonds Are Forever and Goldfinger. She sings few bars of Diamonds Are Forever a cappella. She said that highlight of her career was singing for Quincy Jones' 85th birthday concert in London. When asked if she feels like she is 12 years old, Angelina says she only does when she looks at her passport: th-cam.com/video/97hjWg4ToRQ/w-d-xo.html] [as 13-year old, sung in artistic video directed by her maternal grandmother Mery Zamani: th-cam.com/video/m8OCbAlr_48/w-d-xo.html] ---- Above The Water [as 13-year old, Angelina shows incredible cross genre abilities. Collaborated with Norwegian EDM (Electronic Dance Music) duo TRXD and recorded vocals for song. TRXD is Truls Dyrstad and David Atarodiyan where TRXD represents their names (TRuls X David). In 2020, song was released officially as audio only track and has almost 3.5 million plays on Spotify. However, amazing unofficial video was created that added some footage of shuffle dancers doing variations of Melbourne shuffle (rave dance from 1980s): th-cam.com/video/y6SilwnR2Zc/w-d-xo.html] ---- I Will Survive [as 10-year old, Angelina again hits it out of the park, in another new music genre: disco! This is only disco song to win Grammy. In 2016, Library of Congress deemed Gloria Gaynor's original recording to be "culturally, historically, or artistically significant" and selected it for preservation in National Recording Registry: th-cam.com/video/ma7sa_n7k-8/w-d-xo.html] ---- Song For A [as 13-year old, Angelina sung with music by modern classical composer Nico Cartosio. It can be described as musical poetry. Lyrics come from poem by Robert Burns. Song was written specifically for Angelina as part of mostly instrumentals album Melting (8 instrumentals plus Song For A). Album was recorded at famous Abbey Road studio and released in April 2019: th-cam.com/video/Bo3mhxPM-uA/w-d-xo.html]
What's the matter my friend you seem to be speechless and you almost lost your jaw on the floor lol you have no idea what you have just discovered I will let other Angelina fans explain it to you
Great first reaction dude,, welcome sir to thee greatest vocalist/artist/humanitarian to humanity that ever lived in my opinion,, 130+ covers,, 5 original's,, and 2 that was written for just her,, and one mind BLOWING "Demo" that was accidentally on purpose "leaked"?? pick one it doesn't matter they are all better than the originals,, the only song I don't like is the one she don't sing,, stay safe an healthy,,godbless,, 👣🌬🌎
9 year old Angelina rewrote the music score of Screaming Jay Hawkings song, "I put a spell on you" and the man who looked at it was the music director. She is brilliant. She rewrites inappropriate song lyrics before she sings them. She is music itself.
So, not a home recording as you can see, studio production with a full Jazz band for this 9 year old girl, which may tell you something about the immense talent before you. Did not write the song, Screamin Jay Hawkins from 1956, this is his song, picture on candle, and no, not her dad, the music director going over her notes for the arrangement she wants, other wise, really good reaction D. Thank you for supporting the young Angel. She is a child prodigy/genius young lady, the like of which we have not seen in decades.
She was only 9 years old when she performed this song. It is her tribute to Screamin' Jay Hawkins, an American singer/songwriter. He wrote and performed it in 1956 and Angelina based her performance on the original, although she did make some subtle alterations to both lyrics and melody. As you continue your journey of discovering Angelina, you will come to realise that she does her own arrangements of most of the cover songs she sings. The differences may not be immediately discernible on first listening to them, but they are there. There may be a subtle change in tempo or tone, or more inflexion on some words, or a phrase may differ in pitch from the original. The amount of control that Angelina has over her voice cannot be measured. She never hurries a song. She sings in such a way that the emotions in the lyrics are felt by the listener. In this video, did you notice:Angelina finishing some notes and handing them to the music director, who smiled as he read them? They were her wishes (instructions) to the band how she wished therm to play the music. Then a brief glimpse of Mery Zamani, a well known and respected Iranian artist, who is also Angelina's maternal grandmother and the person who encouraged Angelina in her love of music, especially jazz. And then there is a shot of Angelina holding a candle, upon which was an image of Screamin' Jay Hawkins. And the fact that during the last time she sang "because you're mine" she rose on to her toes. Lastly, did you notice how the "performing" Angelina, singing at a level of maturity far beyond her years, suddenly became a 9-year-old child almost instantaneously once she finished singing. From the time I first heard Angelina, way back at her first audition on Norway's Got Talent, she has amazed me.
JUST SUBSCRIBED. Only 6 hours ago and already 55 comments, 1086 views and 224 likes. Angelina has a very large and loyal fan base and love seeing new reactors get acquainted with her. Loved the reaction esp. when you realized you recognized her. and Whitney's Hope you delve into her body of work from 6 years old. This prodigy will surprise and amaze every time. She is in a class by herself. Her most recent covers are Adele's "All I Ask", Michael Jackson's "Heal The World" and "When We Believe" which was also covered by Whitney Houston and Mariah Carey. Her newest video released just a few days ago is her original titled "7th Heaven", official video. My favorite recommendation for newbies is "FEELING GOOD", Live on the Stream Gir Tilbake at 10 years old with a full jazz orchestra televised live on national TV in Norway. Regardless of what you may choose you are sure to enjoy every video yourself and please thousands of viewers along the way. Thanks D
Altogether these following performances show that whether rehearsal, on TV, live concert or studio, Angelina pretty much gives stellar performance. They also show maturing of her voice and slight changes Angelina made in her performance of this song from when 9-year old to 12-year old: ---- you reacted here to video where Angelina as 9-year old did studio performance of I Put A Spell On You. Incredible as sounds much older than she was at time. The link again: th-cam.com/video/nwFloCPXzCs/w-d-xo.html ---- as 11-year old (sung on Little Big Stars German TV show that shows significant growth in her voice: th-cam.com/video/eASqvRGt46k/w-d-xo.html) ---- as 11-year old (sung live as bonus song for audience at Muse in City festival, in Seoul, South Korea. Angelia had finished her set, there was long interval before Norah Jones was to start her set. Norah asked if Angelina could give them one more song, so she came back and did this: th-cam.com/video/HUTzYhGQEvM/w-d-xo.html) ---- as 12-year old (Angelina sung at 2018 Kongsberg Jazz Festival in Norway that is 3 years after original studio recording. Notice how her voice had matured. Unfortunately, there is only audio recording with some brief video of Screamin' Jay Hawkins, original singer of song, at beginning and picture slides of original video recording overlaid into this new video: th-cam.com/video/zdFjajHFAOA/w-d-xo.html) ---- as 12-year old (rehearsal for 2018 Kongsberg Jazz Festival in Norway: th-cam.com/video/lW8g5QmTLY0/w-d-xo.html)
for a 9 yr old girl to even know who SJ Hawkins was, much less perform an amazing cover, and pay tribute with the candle in the intro, blows my mind ! her writing was notes for the band's arrangement.......original by Screamin' Jay Hawkins 1956
She don't care if you don't want her she's yours right now and for the rest of your natural born days so get used to it you are now umber her spell just as all her fans are
I'm blown away she's 9 yo she's a child prodigy barefoot princess queen of jazz love your reaction thanks
A True Masterpiece destined to be in the history books when she breaks the world.
Yeah, absolutely astonishing. This is why she was born!

Wow, all comments below are spot on awesome.....Please react to more of Angelina...enjoy...
the best jazz singer the world needs to see
Since I found this little Angel sing " I put spell on you", I can't stop amazing her and enjoying her heavenly voice..I like a lot of singers and their songs, but I admit that I like her most. There must be an angel from heaven blowing heavenly wind into every note she sing..🆒🆒
Welcome to the Angelina rabbit hole
She was giving the Musicians some pointers this is an old piece .
What an amazing talent and still a child!
She doesn't have a pity story. He backstory reads like the story of a Greek hero. She is a one-of-a-kind performer and and a blessed human being.
I never realized you haven’t never reacted to Angelina before. Get ready to go down “The Barefoot Princess” rabbit hole.
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 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 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.

She's definitely something special!
Jazz Soul Angelina a gagné Norway Got Talent à 7 ans 😍😍😍
Beauty! Thanks for your reaction.
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 (135+ 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!
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 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... There aren't words for 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. Yet Angelina respectfully sings his own song in a manner that exceeds his (Hawkin's image is on the candle she holds at the start of her video). She starts low, rising in intensity throughout and finishes in an unexpected and practically operatic style.
You must go and listen to Hawkins' original (and throw in a couple of "famous" covers as well) to see the true genius in how AJ incorporates many of his vocal elements [usually omitted by most singers]. This 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). "Screamin" Jay Hawkins original "I put A Spell on You" th-cam.com/video/orNpH6iyokI/w-d-xo.html
Not bad for a self taught 9 year old. Take a fifties classic song by Screaming Jay Hawkins, arrange the music and then sing like a 40 year old jazz singer. This girl is a gift to us all. Welcome to Angelina's world.
Yeah, this is totally unbelievable because she arranged it and controlled every aspect of this performance, and for a 9 year old to understand what she wants at this age is not understandable.
Yes she was on AGT Champions because she won Norway’s Got Talent at 8, and it wasn’t even close, she won with 46% of the vote in the finals out of 10 performers! She didn’t win AGT Champions because she wouldn’t sign with SYCO, she has now signed with Republic Records, she’s now 15.
(
1:20 she was writing instructions to the band on how she wants them to play. And she only APPEARS to be a child, at least while doing anything musical.
She turned 9 two weeks before this. And yes that was her.
Nothing to say she is one e of the best at 7 at 9 and now and 4 ever !! Good inverse reaction love when you remember u saw her before
welcome to the club,warning,,watch out,,,you can easely be trapped when you listen to Angelina.
"You only win AGT if you have a good enough pity story" - LMAO! Sooo true! I love your non-PC truth telling!
Great reaction, glad you remember her! Need to go deeper in the Rabbit Hole and get ready to be literally blown away, from age 6 to current age of 15. Every thing she touches is Gold! God Bless!
Right sir, she was born to sing. Simon don't matter. Thumbs up D.
You should go back to where it all started on Norways got talent 7 with her performances Gloomy Sunday Summertime and Bang Bang you shot me down...amazing 💚
More Angelina please! Great reaction
Welcome to the world of the Angels.
We will likely never know the truth, but the rumor is that she did not win AGT because her family refused to sign Simon's contract. She did sign with Republic Records in 2020 under a contract much more favorable to her than Simon's. She is only 15 and she and her family want her to have as much of a normal childhood as is possible with such a prodigious talent, so she is not yet being heavily promoted. There is an album in the works, and all of us Angels are anxiously awaiting its release.
They have a CRAZY contract to sign just for being a part of AGT! plus I wish just ONCE someone would tell the truth when they ask "what would you do if you won the million dollars?" "Well Simon, Since the million dollars is spread out over 40 years and after taxes its about 16K A YEAR....I will just continue to work my day job and hope this was my real chance at becoming famous to make money in OTHER ways :)"
Awesome reaction, thanks so much for sharing!
You'll never be the same again.....
She started singing jazz at 18 months old, studio recording at 6. Won norways got talent at 7 . Writing her own arrangements at age 8. This when she just turned 9, by which time she played 3 instruments spoke 3 languages and was the youngest published book author in norways history. She makes her own clothing and loves art. Her grandmother is iranian artist mery zamani. No she didnt write this song, its by screaming Jay hawkins who is on the mug she holds up. That guy isnt her father, he is the musical director in the studio with members of the norwegian military band and angelina is writing the arrangements for the band
I have to admit... I am hooked on the Angel ever since I heard her sing. And I must have listened to this particular song about a 1000x's along with the rest of her songs. But now I find myself just viewing all of these to see the reaction that people give when listening to her for the 1st time. I am getting hooked on the reactions. It amazes me how people react to her voice at different ages. It is so entertaining to me not just her singing but viewing the reactions of others. I'm hook on both Angel's voice but also all those reactions.
So young and so special already
Esta niña es un fenómeno, así como los grandes de la música, no puedo dejar de escuchar su música es bellísima, gracias por darnos ese privilegio de escucharla
...also, I'm guessing that her people made it clear she wasn't going to sign. That could be why she placed fifth.
Two words for you D....welcome aboard.
When she was on AGT she didn’t win because Simon offered her a lifetime contract. And they turned him down that’s why she didn’t win. She was also asked to go on AGT she didn’t go on the show because of her own wishes she was asked to go there. She won Norway’s got talent when she barely turned eight years old.
To the down-thumbers. I feel you. Teary eyes, shaking hands from watching something that really questions core elements of physics, wave theory and acoustics by asking "where is the resonance volumes hiding in that tiny body?" It is not easy to hit those tiny thumbs on a screen.
I mean, this content creator shows off impressive musical memory by remembering her older self from a silly talent show some few years ago (and since this is internet - do not be triggered - I was not saying that her performances on the show were silly at all - youtube is so trigger-happy one must cover all bases since forever). The reason I am not triggered by ALL reactions to this video are similar is because I know from my own experience that "this is not even possible" is the last coherent thought one has when encountering this performance. I personally started laughing the first time I watched it since my brain simply stopped bothering with coherent thoughts - probably because I am a physicist
💖
Indeed she was "way older" on AGT "the Champions" -- 13! (four years older than in this performance). You might consider reacting to more of Angelina's "older" stuff, like from 7 or 8 years ago. For example, she was on "the Champions" because she won Norway's Got Talent (she's from Oslo -- but almost always sings in English, which is a second language for her). Try some her NGT songs:
1) First Audition: "Gloomy Sunday" (Billie Holiday cover) -- th-cam.com/video/d3gSho9yf88/w-d-xo.html
2) Judges' Cut: "I'm a Fool to Want You" (also a Billie Holiday cover, done a capella) -- th-cam.com/video/LXknLZDoRVQ/w-d-xo.html
3) Semi-Final: "Bang Bang" (Nancy Sinatra cover) -- th-cam.com/video/pcBoB49Gxn8/w-d-xo.html
4) Final: "Summertime" (George Gershwin from Porgy & Bess) -- th-cam.com/video/bnpFsCNKzFg/w-d-xo.html
If you only want to do one of these, I suggest the last one, since that's when she won the whole show. But each of them is incredible in its own right. Angelina is simply a prodigy, and this was just the beginning of her public career.
yeah , takes a while to digest the astounding talent of this child .
If I could hit the like button on your comment, I would !! ❤️👣🎶
Geesh … “again” I mean 😵💫
last jan she was on agt champions 13 yr sang stripped down versions of bohemian rhapsody and yellow brick road won golden buzzer...to get her to appear agt released her from all bs contracts...won norways got talent at 8...15 and a half now...
Angelina is a Vocal Goddess , she is always amazing, and mesmerizing.
U have just boarded the AJ express, welcome to the world of the barefooted princess and jazz queen Angelina Jordan. Have fun song requests will keep coming, no wrong picks.
Birthday January 10th she is 15.
It is in a studio...she is 9, yes she arranged it from the original and that was not her dad he is the musical director.
LOVE your (apt) comments re Simon!
Congrats... you just discovered the most astonishing voice of the century...!
Welcome to the 🌍 of Angelina the princess of jazz music 🎷 who does not wear shoe🦶🦶 during her performance 🗣 This song was originally by the screaming G. Okins from the 1940s. And yes she was in America Got Talent in the Champions season (13 yaers old) and that's because at the age of 7 she won Norway 🇧🇻 Gut Talent. Today she is 15 years old and in total she has over 140 cover versions of a song on TH-cam from a wide variety of styles and also some of her original songs. She signed last year on "Republic Recordings" and is on her way to her first international record ... ENJOY 🗣🎙
I guess you didn't notice the number of views this had; she has been out there for many many years already; and she is only 15 now.
Ioi no that was the musical director she was giving notes to. She didn't write it. The Original is Scream'n Jay Hawkins. This is her arrangement and homage to the original. She started singing at 1-1/2.
Mr. D I would like to introduced to you everyones Angel, a legend for the next centuries to come, Miss Angelina Jordan. She is a worlds treasure as you will come to not only understand, but feel. She weilds the power of Thors hammer as she strikes you deep into your soul with her presence and voice. Have fun, oh btw she didnt win AGT champions because she refused the Simons contract before the show ended so obviously she only got so far.
She has so amazing covers and some originals, you should listen her more! 😉
Welcome to our barefoot princess world!..regards from Norway 🇳🇴
Hello Norway!
She did not write the song, those were the arrangements that she wrote. She's also in the studio.
Yeh... exactly.
She was 9 years and 2 months old when she recorded this
crazy
A little information as of 2020 over 132 songs all covers are her own arrangements including Spell what you see is her making changes to arrangements probably Producer reading.
She signed last year with Republic Records and it has been said that she has 100% control of everything Angelina. At 15 are you kidding?
Always performs barefooted for you to find out why.
She's the Barefoot Princess. She is a Musical Prodigy she loves Jazz & Blues. She does many who have Passed and some who still walk upon our Earth. Her Voice Changes with each Rendition especially those she Pays Homage Too.
_"You've got to be kidding me!"_ I wonder if that term derives from _'to act like a kid'_ Well, Angelina is a kid, but as we know from this performance and many other performances that she's no joke, she's the real deal!
She won Norway's got talent when she was 7-8 years old
She did this cover when she was 9 ( she arranged this version, but the song was written by screamin' Jay Hawkins many decades ago)
she went on America's got Talent while she was 13 or so, got the golden buzzer (this was about 1-2 years ago I believe)
She has many great covers and some original songs as well.
She started singing along to Jazz music when she was 2-3 years old
she always performs barefoot on stage( there's a story behind that)
Thank you for your great first reaction to Angelina. Oh, my friend, you are in for the ride of your life! You will be inundated with other comments here that will give you excellent information about Angelina, her prodigious talent and her huge humanitarian heart. We all know your main purpose is to react to the performers (and you do it very well) but, let me just say, the more reactions you do to her, the more you will see your subscriptions, likes, views and comments go through the roof! That’s what TH-cam is looking for from you. Just know that Angelina’s millions of fans around the world are very, VERY loyal and will follow you to the ends of the Earth for as long as you continue to react to her!
You should see her covers of Feeling Good and It's a Man's World. Your head will explode. She has made over 130 covers, and wrote five original songs.
130 covers??? wow, which would be the top 3 in your opinions?
@@ReactionsbyD , This one, Bohemian Rhapsody from AGT, and her tribute to Whitney Houston "I Have Nothing" are probably the most requested, but everyone has their favorites, and I don't really think she has a bad one, just some that are better. My favorites are her latest original "7th Heaven" th-cam.com/video/9rLiWvwzbCA/w-d-xo.html and her cover of what used to be an Adele song, that in my opinion, Angelina now owns, "All I Ask"
th-cam.com/video/8gJuprckBxI/w-d-xo.html and a demo she did at 10 years old that was leaked to the internet, "I'm Still Holding Out For You" (audio only) th-cam.com/video/Dv8mjCh5iiE/w-d-xo.html But as I said, I don't think there are any bad ones. Here is a link to Rusty Shacklefords (our Angelina expert) playlist (145 videos) of all her videos. Just go through it and pick out what you like, and then try to deal with how old she is when she is singing each song. LOL th-cam.com/play/PL2v8kgVeo4EbQD6l_WAVjOfItquzW7oEc.html
@@musicluvr70 thanks we will check them out!
Add her cover of Lana del Rey's "Born to Die", which highlights her lower register, and her cover of Etta James' "I'd Rather Go Blind".
@@alanfoster6589 , And for her really low register, her version of "How Great Thou Art". 😁
The song was by screaming Jay Hawkings in 1956. This is her arrangement of the song. She did this 2 months after her 9th birthday. She's one of the best singers in the world. Has 144 songs on utube covering many of the greatest singers of all time. Often better than the original's. Watch her singing every time we say goodby at age 10 . There is a clip.of her singing I will allways love you at 18 months old. The girl with a thousand voices,the barefoot angel and the BOSS
Thank you for your genuine reaction.
Here is an introduction to Angelina for you and your viewers who might not be familiar with her.
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.
Thank you for reading and Keep up the good work.
thanks for all the info
Yes, good information. My compliments to this commentor, one of the best write-ups of Angelina I have read
(and I have read many,any of them.)
Angelina arranges all of her songs, and picks which ones to sing. She hands her “wish list” to the music director, and on the candle is a picture of Screamin Jay Hawkins who wrote the song in 1956, check out his creepy black and white version. The woman with Angelina is her grandmother. Angelina is 9 years old here. This is a recording studio not her home.
👩🏻🎤🎵🌎⭐️🇳🇴❤️ Another spell has been cast!
Vous êtes prémonitoire American Got Talent elle mérite là elle a 9 ans...4 ans après Angélina y participera 😊😍
She wrote notes on the arrangement of the song. The song is a cover of Screamin's Jay Hawkins' version of the song. The pictur of the guy in the candle is Screamin' Jay Hawkins. She puts her own spin on his version.
Nice reaction. Please react to her performances when she was 8 y. o. : At last, and I'll be there. I am sure you will enjoy.
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 ❤️💙 If there was ever a reason to believe in something greater than us, or in reincarnation, Angelina Jordan is it ❤️💙 Loved your reaction!!! ❤️💙 ***RIP SCREAMIN JAY HAWKINS*** ❤️💙
D you were wrong at the beginning but it does not matter, you just witnessed a 9 years 2 months old musical genius, she’s now 15 and her voice is insane. Welcome into Angelina world, hope you will do more reactions of her.
She was 9 years old in this one, about a year after she won Norway's Got Talent, and she was already a fairly seasoned artist. She didn't write the song (it was written by Screamin' Jay Hawkins i 1956), but she did rearrange it. You saw her in AGT The Champions.
That was his picture on the candle she held up.
she won Norway's got Talent in 2014, when she was only 7 years old, remember watching her audition because I knew her.
She's 15 now but she started singing in the womb...and her foundation is blues jazz introduced to her by her grandmom. She can outperform anyone in any genre. Nobody but nobody can can emote so much emotion when she sings. Her audience is a mix of all ages, colors and nationalities...she's a living proof that music is not only the greatest form of art but its universal....thanks for a great reaction video...
This is a cover of Screamin’ Jay Hawkins 1956 song, “I put a spell on you”.
Jump down the Rabbit hole my friend and you will be blown away. Check out her 7 year old stuff, its mind blowing! She is mind blowing!!!
No shoes 8yrs she did some composing of the song by Screaming Jay Hawkings. Check her out at 6yrs 1st studio of I Who Have Nothing then at 7yrs with her Performances of all Jazz on Norways Got Talent and Won!!! She Just turned 16 on January 10th. She started singing at 18months. Oh Norwegian is her 1st Language yet she has many other Languages in her pocket. Yes at 13 yrs Americas Got Talent with Bohemian Rhapsody. She's done over 160 covers and many of her own. Welcome to Angelina Jordans World the Barefoot Princess. She's a Musical Prodigy. The family didn't have a winner as her Family wants her schooling First
Hi D,
even if you already got a lot of comments with good information allow me sending you my "standard firsties comment" (SFC) - may be you can find some for you new information in it ;-)
So, here it is (a wee bit personalized):
Welcome to the universe of Angelina Jordan and thanks a billion for this nice and lively reaction to her - I'm sure to hear more reactions from you! ...because it is...
...too late!
From now on you are assimilated in Angelinas entourage! Resistance is futile...
Even if you won't believe it and if you are in denial about it: Only listen to one song sung by Angelina Jordan and you are hooked on listening her voice! May be you aren't aware of it yet... a legend says in rare cases there are humans who can resist.... but I can't believe it ;-)
Every time it's a pleasure to watch people reacting to Angelina Jordan - especially when it is the first time - and I hope to see more of your reactions on Angelina Jordan... ;-)
May be you wonder, what videos you should next react to ;-) ...
There is a big pile of over 130 videos on TH-cam with Angelina Jordans rehearsals, covers and originals...
She is born 10th January 2006 in Oslo/Norge (English is her 3rd language ;-) ), sung her first notes of a Whitney Houston song with 18 months (link see down), started researching the internet for Jazz 3 yo, entered Norske Talenter (Norwegian Got Talent) 7 yo and won it 8 yo, was on AGT The Champions (recorded Oct. 2019, aired Jan. 2020) where she didn't won - some rumours say because she/her mother didn't sign the contract with the enterprise of Simon Cowell for to stay independend - meanwhile she has signed with Republic Records (musicnorway.no/aktuelt/industry-talk-michael-astar ).
Btw. her full name is Angelina Jordan Astar, but in most occations she is introduced as Angelina Jordan - she herself answered in the audition of Norske Talenter her name is "Angelina Jordan"… ;-)

In addition to school she got also vocal training at the Oslo School of Music and Performing Arts after-school program (I read, that this school said, they couldn't teach her more stuff because she has all learned what she could learn in this school ;-) ) - and btw. she plays also grand piano, violin, flute and guitar, make her arrangements herself, wrote a book, sew clothes for herself (partly with art from her grandma like in her first AGT performance and in her music video "Shield").
So she is a real all-rounder and I think all her fans are eager to see and hear what she is doing next...
All the other things like more recommendation, chronological playlists and so on you can read in the comments of the mega-fans like Fernando F., Rusty (AJ videos in chronological order th-cam.com/channels/55am_6Y5-Fj4ri8xOInstA.html), Andy Schnell, ...
And a little explanation:
Her cover "I put a spell on you" b/w studio version at 9yo (th-cam.com/video/nwFloCPXzCs/w-d-xo.html - btw. she made most of her cover arrangements by herself!) based on the original from Screemin' Jay Hawkins (from 1956) - Live: th-cam.com/video/7kGPhpvqtOc/w-d-xo.html
or another version of it: th-cam.com/video/orNpH6iyokI/w-d-xo.html
and here a version from 1990 in Tokyo - I feel, this is like the version Angelina has taken as the model, but I don't know it ( ;-) ): th-cam.com/video/Bb9ag8bch_U/w-d-xo.html
or as Audio-Studio-Version: th-cam.com/video/82cdnAUvsw8/w-d-xo.html)
that's real fun - if you watch this too and may be after this watch Angelinas cover again you will find out that Angelinas cover is a real tribute to Jay Hawkins :-D
Btw. I read somwhere that her grandma was in person at a concert of SJH in Japan (as she, AJs mother and uncle lived there some years - AJs granpa is Japanese) and there AJs granma bought this candle as a souvenier ;)
...I hope this story isn't a HOAX :))
Thanks a billion again for your reaction! … and see you soon with your next AJ reactions - with greetings from Berlin/Germany :-D Best regards
Andreas
WOW thanks - that's everything I need to start our journey lol
Angelina Jordan's performance on AGT with her arrangement of Bohemian Rhapsody that got the Golden buzzer, was one of the greatest live performances, and missed by many, on her second performance with her arrangement of Yellow Brick Road, she sealed her place in History and everyone new she is the "Next Level Event" the world will know and love her soon.
She's a child prodigy whose growing up.
@D: "Gloomy Sunday" - Norway's Got Talent - age 7
Not her dad. Not a house. It's a studio. She didn't write it ,just arranged it.
I stand corrected multiple times lol
Hola!! Me encantó tu sorpresa!! Cada cover y tema propio de Angelina te sorprenderá!! Por favor, escucha mucho más de ella!! Saludos desde Argentina!!🧉🧉🧉🤗🤗🤗
Yes, she did her mesmerizing performance of Bohemian Rhapsody on AGT, age 13 ❤
Angelina has amazing flexibility as can be witnessed by the following four songs:
---- Shield [as 12-year old, Angelina wrote song. As 12-year old, sung on very popular Scandinavian talk show Skavlan (2.5 to 3 million viewers per show): th-cam.com/video/lQtUbVKb0vs/w-d-xo.html]
[In interview (changes to English at about 0:36 mark) before Angelina sung, paraphrasing, she said that when she sings she goes into endless other world that is full of happiness. She said that song is about someone you love and whose strong love protects you wherever you are. Angelina said song's sound was inspired by Bond films. Her favorite Bond film songs are Diamonds Are Forever and Goldfinger. She sings few bars of Diamonds Are Forever a cappella. She said that highlight of her career was singing for Quincy Jones' 85th birthday concert in London. When asked if she feels like she is 12 years old, Angelina says she only does when she looks at her passport: th-cam.com/video/97hjWg4ToRQ/w-d-xo.html]
[as 13-year old, sung in artistic video directed by her maternal grandmother Mery Zamani: th-cam.com/video/m8OCbAlr_48/w-d-xo.html]
---- Above The Water [as 13-year old, Angelina shows incredible cross genre abilities. Collaborated with Norwegian EDM (Electronic Dance Music) duo TRXD and recorded vocals for song. TRXD is Truls Dyrstad and David Atarodiyan where TRXD represents their names (TRuls X David). In 2020, song was released officially as audio only track and has almost 3.5 million plays on Spotify. However, amazing unofficial video was created that added some footage of shuffle dancers doing variations of Melbourne shuffle (rave dance from 1980s): th-cam.com/video/y6SilwnR2Zc/w-d-xo.html]
---- I Will Survive [as 10-year old, Angelina again hits it out of the park, in another new music genre: disco! This is only disco song to win Grammy. In 2016, Library of Congress deemed Gloria Gaynor's original recording to be "culturally, historically, or artistically significant" and selected it for preservation in National Recording Registry: th-cam.com/video/ma7sa_n7k-8/w-d-xo.html]
---- Song For A [as 13-year old, Angelina sung with music by modern classical composer Nico Cartosio. It can be described as musical poetry. Lyrics come from poem by Robert Burns. Song was written specifically for Angelina as part of mostly instrumentals album Melting (8 instrumentals plus Song For A). Album was recorded at famous Abbey Road studio and released in April 2019: th-cam.com/video/Bo3mhxPM-uA/w-d-xo.html]
What's the matter my friend you seem to be speechless and you almost lost your jaw on the floor lol you have no idea what you have just discovered I will let other Angelina fans explain it to you
Great first reaction dude,, welcome sir to thee greatest vocalist/artist/humanitarian to humanity that ever lived in my opinion,, 130+ covers,, 5 original's,, and 2 that was written for just her,, and one mind BLOWING "Demo" that was accidentally on purpose "leaked"?? pick one it doesn't matter they are all better than the originals,, the only song I don't like is the one she don't sing,, stay safe an healthy,,godbless,, 👣🌬🌎
9 year old Angelina rewrote the music score of Screaming Jay Hawkings song, "I put a spell on you" and the man who looked at it was the music director. She is brilliant. She rewrites inappropriate song lyrics before she sings them. She is music itself.
So, not a home recording as you can see, studio production with a full Jazz band for this 9 year old girl, which may tell you something about the immense talent before you. Did not write the song, Screamin Jay Hawkins from 1956, this is his song, picture on candle, and no, not her dad, the music director going over her notes for the arrangement she wants, other wise, really good reaction D. Thank you for supporting the young Angel. She is a child prodigy/genius young lady, the like of which we have not seen in decades.
She was only 9 years old when she performed this song. It is her tribute to Screamin' Jay Hawkins, an American singer/songwriter. He wrote and performed it in 1956 and Angelina based her performance on the original, although she did make some subtle alterations to both lyrics and melody.
As you continue your journey of discovering Angelina, you will come to realise that she does her own arrangements of most of the cover songs she sings. The differences may not be immediately discernible on first listening to them, but they are there. There may be a subtle change in tempo or tone, or more inflexion on some words, or a phrase may differ in pitch from the original. The amount of control that Angelina has over her voice cannot be measured. She never hurries a song. She sings in such a way that the emotions in the lyrics are felt by the listener.
In this video, did you notice:Angelina finishing some notes and handing them to the music director, who smiled as he read them? They were her wishes (instructions) to the band how she wished therm to play the music. Then a brief glimpse of Mery Zamani, a well known and respected Iranian artist, who is also Angelina's maternal grandmother and the person who encouraged Angelina in her love of music, especially jazz. And then there is a shot of Angelina holding a candle, upon which was an image of Screamin' Jay Hawkins. And the fact that during the last time she sang "because you're mine" she rose on to her toes. Lastly, did you notice how the "performing" Angelina, singing at a level of maturity far beyond her years, suddenly became a 9-year-old child almost instantaneously once she finished singing. From the time I first heard Angelina, way back at her first audition on Norway's Got Talent, she has amazed me.
JUST SUBSCRIBED. Only 6 hours ago and already 55 comments, 1086 views and 224 likes. Angelina has a very large and loyal fan base and love seeing new reactors get acquainted with her. Loved the reaction esp. when you realized you recognized her. and Whitney's Hope you delve into her body of work from 6 years old. This prodigy will surprise and amaze every time. She is in a class by herself. Her most recent covers are Adele's "All I Ask", Michael Jackson's "Heal The World" and "When We Believe" which was also covered by Whitney Houston and Mariah Carey. Her newest video released just a few days ago is her original titled "7th Heaven", official video. My favorite recommendation for newbies is "FEELING GOOD", Live on the Stream Gir Tilbake at 10 years old with a full jazz orchestra televised live on national TV in Norway. Regardless of what you may choose you are sure to enjoy every video yourself and please thousands of viewers along the way. Thanks D
Altogether these following performances show that whether rehearsal, on TV, live concert or studio, Angelina pretty much gives stellar performance. They also show maturing of her voice and slight changes Angelina made in her performance of this song from when 9-year old to 12-year old:
---- you reacted here to video where Angelina as 9-year old did studio performance of I Put A Spell On You. Incredible as sounds much older than she was at time. The link again: th-cam.com/video/nwFloCPXzCs/w-d-xo.html
---- as 11-year old (sung on Little Big Stars German TV show that shows significant growth in her voice: th-cam.com/video/eASqvRGt46k/w-d-xo.html)
---- as 11-year old (sung live as bonus song for audience at Muse in City festival, in Seoul, South Korea. Angelia had finished her set, there was long interval before Norah Jones was to start her set. Norah asked if Angelina could give them one more song, so she came back and did this: th-cam.com/video/HUTzYhGQEvM/w-d-xo.html)
---- as 12-year old (Angelina sung at 2018 Kongsberg Jazz Festival in Norway that is 3 years after original studio recording. Notice how her voice had matured. Unfortunately, there is only audio recording with some brief video of Screamin' Jay Hawkins, original singer of song, at beginning and picture slides of original video recording overlaid into this new video: th-cam.com/video/zdFjajHFAOA/w-d-xo.html)
---- as 12-year old (rehearsal for 2018 Kongsberg Jazz Festival in Norway: th-cam.com/video/lW8g5QmTLY0/w-d-xo.html)
She is the best our angel barefoot princess
for a 9 yr old girl to even know who SJ Hawkins was, much less perform an amazing cover, and pay tribute with the candle in the intro, blows my mind ! her writing was notes for the band's arrangement.......original by Screamin' Jay Hawkins 1956
Not her dad. The director, with the band affectionately refer to Angelina as "the boss".
Full blown studio musicians for a nine year old should be a tip off to this head explosion. 🤯
Cover of Screaming Jay Hawking his Picture is on candle.
