Angelina will go down as one of the greatest of all time. Best voice on the planet. Enjoy the ride. Best wishes to you.
I'm glad I'm here now, stay tuned for the journey!
She wasn’t sick…she uses vocal fry like no one else. Her range is a solid 4+ octaves. If you listen again you will hear her hit a couple of low notes, but they are sneaky because she fits them in so smoothly that you may not notice them. She will be a singer that will be a historical figure if she continues her career. She is an artist, author, lyricist, composer and performer. Absolutely one of the most talented people on earth (if she isn’t an alien😂). Enjoy the ride.
terry No, she does not have a 4 octave range.
Hi Terry, thanks for the description, she sounds super talented indeed, can't wait to hear more! Stay tuned...
@@103mrg 2 1/2 + ? do you think?
@@mrstlu4838 How wide her observed vocal range is really depends on what you want to count. The highest-pitch vocalization we've ever heard from her was a scream on a roller coaster when she was 10, but obviously that shouldn't be counted. (I really don't know what "note" that corresponded to, but my best guess is a G♯7.) Her highest vocalization while singing a song was a kind of a "screech" at perhaps a G♯6 in "I Put a Spell on You" at age 9. Her highest belted note is, I'm pretty sure, still an F♯5 in her original cover of "I Have Nothing" posted when she was 13. Her highest "pure-tone" falsetto used to be the top note in this song ("Unchained Melody"), at a G5, first sung at 9, but I'm pretty sure it is now a C6 (or very close to that, anyway) in "Love on the Brain" at 16. (Admittedly, I haven't really kept on top of her highest and lowest notes for a couple of years now, so I might be missing something.) Her lowest note is, I believe, still around a C3 (and actually, a bit lower than that, I think - but not as low as a B2, the next note down) in "How Great Thou Art" at 12. So, if you use C3 to C6, and don't count the screeched G♯6, then her observed singing range would be 3 octaves. If you count the screech, then just over 3½ octaves.
@@DonaldLancon Thank you very much, I always look for a comment from you in reactions I check out; they are invariably well thought out and succinctly stated. Really appreciate your knowledge! - and your staying calm when angels get (understandably) excited.
This subdued performance was because the children of Nargis Mohammedi were in the audience whose mother was in jail on hunger strike after being whipped. To hear her power and belt, when she is not portraying the longing on the edge of tears watch the Vegas clips within ANGELINA JORDAN 10 YEARS IN THE MAKING. She is a Diva but one whose ego is not in charge. She will not give you a powerhouse performance if the artist in her wants to portray fragility and longing.
Hi Anita, thanks for the information, context is important. I will follow your suggestion, stay tuned!
Very well said.
Angelina was not sick - she was in prime form for this performance - the reason she was subdued was because of the solemn atmosphere of the event. Angelina collaborated on her appearance as well as with the orchestra arrangement.
Hi Robert, thanks for the context! Stay tuned for more...
Wow, there is never a wrong time to hear Angelina Jordan ❤so happy you have decided to listen to Angelina with us so I’ll say a big thank you!!❤️❤️
Hi Jason, thanks so much for the positive comment. I will begin my journey soon so Welcome to the Channel!
She kept this subtle due to the somberness of the occasion.
Belting would have focused on her and not the occasion. Very humble.
She is called the girl of 1000 voices. The Queen of Soul, Blues and Jazz.
Next get your mind blown. I Put A Spell on You at barely 9 years old.
Link from her channel - th-cam.com/video/nwFloCPXzCs/w-d-xo.html
Hi Albert, I understand completely, now it makes sense. Thanks for the suggestion, will take a look soon!
Angelina Jordan an artist that no one song represents. The most predictably unpredictably brilliant artist you will ever find. She has complete control over the colour tone texture dynamics and of her vibrato. Stylistically she treats her voice as an instrument to best convey the emotions of a song. So it may surprise you she is frequently compared to Adele or Amy Winehouse. She never allows ego to decide her choices. Though she can run for days, her runs are usually spare and elegant choices. She is called the Angel with a hundred voices by some. But that makes her sound like a mimic which she is not , her voice is always instantly recognisable whatever vocal characteristics she flexes. To this day after 9 years of listening to everything she put out for over 10 years I still cannot work out how she did it. Her EP last year at 17 years of age was a delightful surprise to her fans. Despite the fact that's about the only thing you could predict. Brilliant surprises.
Hi Anita, thanks for the background information, very interesting. I can't wait to see what's next!
A worldclass singer with heritage to Iran sang for a imprisoned woman in Iran to her children a song about an imprisoned man longing for his loved ones. The rough voice is natural. Gracias
It was a powerful situation for sure, respect.
I did like your reaction. I have been an Angelina fan for many years now, and even I had a feeling that this performance was not what I expected. But then i remembered whom she was singing for, a woman that got the prize for her fighting for woman rights in Iran, she was jailed for her struggle, and she misses her family, husband and children. And then it made perfect sence.Angelina is a person whith many voice, she can sing in every one of them, and adjust her voice after what is appropiate at the moment. You will see…❤️
Hi there, thanks for your comment and support! I hear what you are saying and it makes sense. I will continue for sure, stay tuned!
Class act! Angelina has a 1000 voices, she always chooses the right one for the occasion. If you had known the back story your opinion might have been different. It was a tribute to Narges Mohammadi, an Iranian woman serving a 37 year prison sentence for fighting for women’s rights. Her 17 year twin children were in front of Angelina when she sang this. Throw into the equation that this song was written for a 1956 film “Unchained”, which was about prisoners longing to be with their loved ones. Angelina is always elegant, it is her style, no one tells her how to look. She also has Iranian connections, her maternal grandmother is Iranian, so the whole performance meant a great deal to her. Now watch it again!
Hi there, yes context is key! That's the thing about going into these reactions cold, sometimes it's useful sometimes it's not. Now everything makes more sense, thank you!
awesome job/remarks.
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 (170+ 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 Michael Jackson to Etta James to James Brown to Amy Winehouse to the Beatles (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.
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. Her musical range will astound you.
This is her second time performing at a Nobel Peace prize ceremony. She is a veteran already.
Wonderfully put.❤😊
Hi Ken, thanks for such a wonderful and complete comment. Very impressive everything you are mentioning. I must continue to react to her so stay tuned!
Welcome to 7th Heaven!!
Wow, that was a fresh and diverse one, Ken! Impressive and KUDOS!! ❤🎉
@GEORGE: looking forward for more Angelina on your channel. Columbia is new for me. Enjoy the vast variety she can give you and bring to your channel.
Wow, you sure have missed hundreds of epic performances from Angelina Jordan.
Hey it's not too late, I can begin my journey now!
This is the most beautiful version I’ve ever heard! So right for this cause! The ending with her beautiful vibrato and head voice got me goosebumps. This girl definitely knows how to sing! Sick ??????
Hi Anette, I guess I was just expecting something different! I do appreciate and respect the performance for sure and will begin my journey down her catalog...
@@GeorgeTheCloud
Angelina was keeping it classy for the occasion. She wasn't there to show off.
😊😊😊😊The Norwegian singer, Angelina Jordan is a young legend. now living in LA, Angelina Jordan (curent 18 Yeats old ). She is an elegant artist for the big occasions. Which artist has sung for the Nobel Peace Prize twice, and she sings FIFA's official song before the upcoming World Cup. She has sung for 40,000 in concert with Nora Jones. She has helped to collect 21 million for children in need. Performed for many countries' heads of state on many big occasions. Concert in Las Vegas, with a number of other live concerts. Signed record deal with "Republic Records" at only 14 years old. The list is almost endless ...
She is so talented that no one can ignore her, and together with Rebpublic Records, her family, and herself, she actually sets the pace herself to total fame . Although she herself is an 18-year-old young lady, her taste in music is quality, and not just high bass in the stomach.
When the next James Bond film is to be made, who do you think is in the spotlight for a possible theme song? The list of what Angelina has already been involved in is already so extensive that only a deep dive into her performances has to be searched online by yourself. It is too extreme to almost believe at the age of just turned 18!!!!
All important people in the music industry know who she is and what she is good at on big occasions. I don't think anyone has the guts to suggest to her a fast track that doesn't suit her. Her integrity is too strong for that! - The remaining members of Queen allowed her to copyright her arrangement of Bohemian Rhapsody!
Thanks so much for the information Flame, really appreciate it!
Hi George ..... I appreciate that you are reading the comments and your positive responses. Listen to the song again when you can and I'm pretty sure it will make sense.
Hi Lenny, thanks for the comment. I definitely will!
Your initial reaction reminds me of the first time I tried quality red wine. I was unprepared for the sensations, a mixture of sweet, bitter, familiar, complex tastes and aromas. I was a total novice, but instead of trying to judge the wine at the outset, I let the wine speak to me through different samples. Over time I developed some preferences, but I was always open to the variety and inherent quality of each new wine I sampled. So my advice to you, a first-time listener of Angelina, is to sample and enjoy, letting the music take you where your heart and mind may go. Her music is first and foremost a labor of love that she is sharing with you, just you...enjoy! For you and your generation, she is the very best vocalist of your time!
I think George may have been expecting something similar to the RB cover , because he wrongly thought that was the original .he had also forgotten some of the back story I had submitted in my request . I think he's been given more context now . but he ain't your average reactor , he gives his honest opinion but as he will admit , he's been wrong before .
@@tomwhite4736 Very well, I am satisfied...and I want to encourage him to be open to the many facets of Angelina's voice...I am 81 years old, and I have never heard a voice like hers.
Hi Philip, thanks so much for the comment and support, very cool analogy! I shall continue to watch her videos and react to her content, the journey is just beginning. Stay tuned!
I am absolutely open to hearing anything from her. Very impressive to hear that coming from someone with your level of experience, I can't wait to see her next video!
Sir, Miss Angelina represents indeed the time period you mentioned. As to stress on stage, when she was 11 years old she sang in Seoul in front of more than 40,000 people. You will discover, that she is an old pro. A veteran. She has now a career spanning 10years. No Joke.
She is first and foremost, a Jazz singer. Welcome (Bienveniedos) to the world of Angelina Jordan, vocalist, artist, songwriter and philantropist.
Elmar from Germany greets Colombia
Hi Elmar, thanks so much for the comment and support. I will begin my journey down her catalog so stay tuned!
She is known for being the Angel with a Thousand Voices she can sing anything, even rap a melodic flow here and there from time to time. 12 years of music and over 200+ songs. Oh and this isnt her first time at the Noble Peace Prize ceremony she was invited to sing when she was 8yrs old. Which makes her one of the only few people to be invited to NPP twice.
Oh wow, very accomplished already! I have been missing out but here I am! Stay tuned for more...

Thats just a snippet. Norways youngest published author. A national treasure of Norway. She speaks multiple languages, plays multiple instruments, writes, composes and now produces, her label gifted her her own private studio. Has raised millions for children charities, and has her own charities where proceeds from her merch goes to the charity.
Has met with some of the best and greatest in the biz since she was young. But most of all she is the most humbled kind hearted who has been protected from the shadows of the industry. She isn't a singer to go dance in a swimsuit on stage, she has sung for Kings, Princes and President world over. She is the type of singer that other singers go and see. She has two channels and her Grandma has one as well. Enjoy the Journey.
A magnificent performance by our Barefoot Princess. Beautiful 😊♥👣
Solid for sure, Welcome to the Channel!
I see in the comments that many of Angelina’s angels (fans) have given you a lot of info around this performance and I have to agree with them. You need to learn more about Angelina and listen to some of her other songs and you’ll realise what a great singer she is. The ”rouge” you were talking about is probably from crying, because she had spoken to the Peace prize winner’s children earlier so she was very much aware of their difficult situation and Angelina has a very large heart especially for children. She’s such a beautiful human being from the inside and out!
I'm starting to understand more and more about her talent as well as persona. I respect and admire her acts of kindness and will start my journey with her catalog, stay tuned...

Unchained Melody Nobel Peace Prize Dec. 2023
This is Angelina Jordan the most extraordinary storyteller in my lifetime.
Unchained Melody (AJ, at the age of 17 performed at the Nobel Peace Prize Ceremony December 2023 in Oslo, Norway) I watched as Angelina Jordan stepped onto the stage, her presence commanding attention. The room hushed, anticipation hanging in the air like a delicate thread. She stood there, a young girl with an old soul, ready to weave magic with her voice. As the first notes of "Unchained Melody" filled the room, time seemed to slow. Angelina's voice wrapped around each word, infusing them with a depth that transcended mere lyrics. It was as though the song had been written for her, and her alone. The audience held its breath as she sang. Her voice soared, reaching heights that touched the heavens. The pain and longing in her eyes mirrored the emotions in the song-the heartache, the yearning. It was more than a performance; it was a revelation. The chorus came, and Angelina's voice swelled, filling every corner of the room. " Oh, my love, my darling I've hungered, hungered for your touch," she sang, and suddenly, we all felt the real meaning of the words. The magic in her performance was like nothing we had ever experienced in our lives. The lyrics came alive and had meaning as they flowed through us. In that moment, Angelina Jordan became a vessel for something greater-an embodiment of love itself. Her voice carried us beyond our own pain and loneliness. We felt connected-to her, to each other, to something intangible yet profound. As she held that final note, time snapped back into place. The applause erupted-a thunderous acknowledgment of what we had just witnessed. But it wasn't just applause; it was gratitude-for allowing us to glimpse love and longing through Angelina's eyes. And so, we stood there, hearts full, tears in our eyes. Angelina Jordan had given us something rare-a reminder that love exists even in our brokenness. And for those few minutes, we believed it with every fiber of our being. (CopyRight)
Hi Larry, thanks for the wonderfully worded comment. I'm sure witnessing this live would have been 100 times more powerful, sometimes things don't translate well through the screen, and also context is important. Welcome to the Channel!
Wow, Larry you trump yourself each time! Someday I want to read your novel about our Angel!
What happened to your great signature? (Larry Pifer©) Loved that.
Stay save and love and kindness, in the voice of our barefoot princess

7/8
The performance was honouring Narges Mohammadi who is a Iranian woman in Prison who received the Nobel Peace prize. Angelina's grandmother is Iranian. This was also in her home town Oslo. Narges two children were in the audience. Angelina was not sick. Her voice is powerful. She is preforming since the age of 7 when she won Norway's got talent. As she said herself she does not get nervous.
Hi there, thanks for providing more context! Now I understand better...
Thank you....enjoy listening to AJ you won't be disappointed....respect from Ireland 🇮🇪
Angelina Jordan Astar was born and raised in Norway, but moved to Los Angeles in her mid-teens. She started singing at age eighteen months and has never stopped. She won Norway's Got Talent at age 8 singing songs by Billie Holiday, Frank & Nancy Sinatra, and George Gershwin. She's also Norway's youngest published author, having released her book Between Two Hearts at age 9. That same year, she recorded her own arrangement of I Put A Spell On You, which is still my favorite performance of hers. It'll give you shivers. Here's a link: th-cam.com/video/nwFloCPXzCs/w-d-xo.html
Hi thee, thanks for the comment and the link, I'll add it to the list. Stay tuned!
age 7/8
@annc9660 She won the 2014 season of NGT and she was born Jan 10, 2006. That equals 8 years old.
Looking forward to you getting to know Angelina. Just so you know; - 😉 - no one takes Angelina anywhere, 👣 she is the one who sayes "Follow Me" as she take us into her musical universe. A journey we all simply love, and has become addicted to 🤗
Hi there, thanks for the support! I'm excited to start the journey...
It's not often that someone starts his Angelina Jordan journey with this performance (or any of her 550 videos, usually it's "I put a spell on you" or "Bohemian Rhapsody"). You're absolutely right, one video isn't enough (btw ten aren't enough either), especially when it comes to an artist who is so versatile and has had enough opportunities to live it out in the ten years of her stage career so far.
You know your stuff pretty well and are flexible, I like that. 👍 You were right with 1965 (cover by the Righteous brothers) and with the quick search result 1955 (release of the original) you were close - one more click and you would have had it.
The official Nobel Peace Prize concert always takes place the day after the award ceremony - both in Oslo (Norway). Angelina is Norwegian, even though she has been living in LA for six years now.
KORK is the Norwegian Radio Symphony Orchestra and belongs to Norway's national broadcaster NRK. As for now, it has 55 positions. When ten-year-old Angelina performed Gershwin's "Summertime" with KORK eight years ago, there were 58 musicians in the room - you can count them if you like when you do your reaction to this video ;-) I hope there will be more to come?
Hi Paul, thanks for the comment and understanding! Of course there will be more videos, this is only the beginning, stay tuned...
In hindsight I should have done what I usually do and suggested " I put a spell on you " because I loved this performance I thought everyone would , but I guess not for a first reaction .
Oh boy, you are going to be bombarded by her fans called Angels that will fill you in on this music prodigy with an old soul from Norway. She's basically been a star since she was 7 years old. First and foremost, she is a jazz singer but has the ability to sing any genre. She also does all of her own musical arrangements. Even though she has been compared by many to Amy Winehouse, her major influence is Billie Holiday. Other influences are Dinah Washington, Louis Armstrong, Frank Sinatra, Elvis Presley, Etta James,Whitney Houston, and Adele to name a few. Her love of jazz came from her grandmother playing jazz music around her when she was young. In 2014, she entered at age 7 and won Norway's Got Talent at the age of 8. With her new found fame, she used it to appear on many shows from abroad and help raise millions for the less fortunate children around the world. At age 13, she was invited to participate on America's Got Talent: The Champions in 2020. She shocked the audience and the judges with her rendition of Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen. She received a standing ovation from all and got the Golden Buzzer from judge Heidi Klum to go straight to the Finals. Her performance went viral and even the group Queen responded on Twitter by saying, "Wow, what a rendition!" For Queen to respond to someone covering one of their songs is quite a feat since they rarely react to anyone. She did not win, but her fan base grew and expanded her popularity.
Now 18 years old, living in Los Angeles, and currently signed with Republic Records, whose clients include Taylor Swift, Ariana Grande, The Weeknd, and Drake to name a few. Her family and Republic Records had agreed not to heavily promote her just yet so she can live as normal of a life as possible and finish her schooling. From what we know, she is finally done with school. She had a single that came out May 5th called Love Don't Let Me Go, a new EP called Old Enough that came out Friday, July 21st, 2023, a newly released video of her new song called Now I'm The Fool, and a new album of original music which will be coming out some time this year. Angelina released her new single, Our Time, and is fantastic! She returned back to Norway and performed at a number of sold out concerts in which fans from around the world came to see her. Many of the fans there said she sounded better live in person and was a once in a lifetime experience. On September 22, 2023, Angelina had her first U.S. concert that sold out in Portsmouth, New Hampshire. On December 11, 2023, she was asked to come back and perform at the Nobel Peace Prize Concert. She first performed at this prestigious event in 2014 when she was 8. On Feb.29th, 2024, she performed 2 shows on one night at the Westgate Las Vegas Resort and Casino. A film crew followed her and created a documentary of her called Angelina Jordan: 10 Years In The Making which premiered on her official TH-cam channel on March 29th, 2024.
Her fans call her The Barefoot Princess. She always performs with no shoes when she sings. Why? The reason is very special. When she was 6 years old, she was traveling with her family in Iran where she met a poor shoeless girl in the streets that was about her age. She made money by weighing people. After speaking with her for a few minutes, Angelina noticed the scars on the girl's feet and asked the girl what her dream is. The girl said she wanted to be a doctor but she couldn't because she had to make money for her family. Angelina did what came natural to her, she gave the little girl her shoes and told her to not give up on her dreams. The girl then asked Angelina what her dreams were, Angelina answered that she wanted to sing for the whole world, and the girl said she would pray for her success. Since then, Angelina has performed barefoot in honor of that little girl and to those who are less fortunate around the world. She keeps this promise to this day. One of the reasons why we love her so much!
Hi there, thanks so much for the information and support! I have indeed been reading all the comments and I¿m absorbing the information so that next time I will be able to provide a better reaction and commentary. Stay tuned!
George, "Welcome to the wonderful world of Angelina Jordan!" George, you're in shock right now and that's understandable. Millions of us around the world have felt the same way at one time. The song was chosen because the Nobel Peace Prize Award was being given to Narges Mohammadi, who is currently in an Iranian prison because she has spoken out about women's rights so the song reflected the sorrow of the moment. The woman's twins (a boy and a girl) were sitting in front of Angelina and they received the award. Angelina had been quoted as saying she was afraid she might start crying during the song but she did, in fact, sing it beautifully and the ending note was extraordinarily beautiful (even though it didn't seem to affect you at all and raised my eyebrows to wonder exactly who you are). And, you mentioned she didn't sound like what you expected to hear. What? Another words you went into this without knowledge of what she would sound like but were disappointed by what she did sound like??? That makes no sense. For some people it takes them a little longer to comprehend what they just heard. I believe you are one of those BUT I have every confidence you will come around if you stick with her.
Hi Robert, thanks for the comment and confidence placed in my. I too believe I will enjoy her other videos more now that I have context. I did like this one, just wasn't blown away and I guess people wanted more of a shock reaction, the way I wanted a more shocking performance, it's a bit ironic right? Fear not, the journey is just beginning, stay tuned!
I've gotta say, you have handled yourself very well with the less than kind comments. Shows class and character on your part.
I am really looking forward to seeing more Angelina with you. Angelina would approve I think, as she has often asked for people to be kind to one another.
Hi Jeff, thanks for the comment and support. I can only recall 2 other videos where I have received this sort of response, so it's very rare. I have no problem admitting my mistakes and that's why I will continue to react to her, even though I liked her performance I think people are bothered that I didn't like it even more, it happens.
The original version was for a film about a guy in prison longing for his wife. The Rightous Brothers version was a remake.
Thanks for the background info! Very sad origin story
The best, young, female artist IMO ❤ Check out her cover of Etta James, I Rather Go Blind at the age of 12 ❤️

I'm here for it!
If you have not researched the background of this particular performance, it would not be surprising that you would not fully understand the reason behind the gentle, delicate way she chose to perform it. And no one tells her how to do any of her performances. And no, she was not overwhelmed by the occasion; she has been performing on stage, in front of large audiences in many live concerts in several countries (including two recent concerts in las Vegas), as well as doing innumerable studio performances, since winning Norway's Got Talent at age 8. She has complete control over every aspect of her voice and is able to adjust her delivery to perfectly impart exactly what she wants to express in every song she sings. Here, she is honouring the Nobel Peace Prize 2023 winner, Narges Mohammadi, a civil rights activist who is in prison in Iran because of her struggle for women's rights and whose children are living in exile in France and have not seen their mother in many years. Angelina has chosen a song whose lyrics are stunningly appropriate to the occasion, and delivers it like a cry of loss, longing, love and hope to Narges's children, who are there in the audience to receive the prize in their mother's absence.
Hi Patrick, thanks for providing that information, that's the thing about doing reactions like this that sometimes context is crucial and you miss out, but fear not this is only the beginning of the journey, stay tuned!
Hi George,
even if you already got some comments with good information allow me sending you my "standard newbies comment" (SNC) - maybe you can find some for you new information in it ;-)
So, here is my SNC:
Welcome to the universe of Angelina Jordan and thanks a billion for this nice reaction to her - I'm sure to hear more reactions to her from you! ...because it is...
...too late!
From now on you are assimilated in Angelina's 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! Maybe 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... 😏
So a little Question:
When you react to her cover "I put a spell on you" b/w studio version at 9yo (th-cam.com/video/nwFloCPXzCs/w-d-xo.html - btw. like here she made most of her cover arrangements by herself! ..at the beginning she made her last changes for the piano arrangement and gave her "wishes" to the band leader..) it would be nice to react in the same reaction video IN ADVANCE to 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 :-D - and than you will find out that Angelinas cover is a virtuoso tribute to Jay Hawkins :-D
At the beginning you see her something writing on a sheet and a man reading it and smiles than.. in an interview this man, who was the "bandleader", said, this were some "wishes" from Angelina (she was every time very polite he said) for changes of her arrangement for the piano 😃)
The candle you can see at about 0:12 shows a portrait of J. Hawkins - I think her grandma bought it at a concert in Tokyo 😏
At 0:26 you can see the bassist smiling - I can imagine that he smiles about the expectable reactions of the listeners in the moment, when Angelina starts to sing at 0:30 😏
Btw. I read somewhere that her grandma was in person at a concert of SJH in Japan (as she, AJs mother and uncle lived there some years - AJs grandpa is Japanese) and there AJs grandma bought this candle as a souvenir 😏
...I hope this story isn't a HOAX 😃
Maybe you wonder, what videos you should next react to 😏 ...
Furthermore there is a big pile of over 170 videos on TH-cam with Angelina Jordans rehearsals, covers and originals... and each and every one is worth to listen and to react to - even the very early recordings when she was 6 yo!
She is born January 10th 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 independent - 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 occasions she is introduced as Angelina Jordan - she herself answered in the audition of Norske Talenter her name is "Angelina Jordan"… 😏
First of all, here are the official channels of her and the most known fan club:

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, ...
Thanks a billion again for your reaction! … and see you soon with your next AJ reactions - with greetings from Berlin/Germany 😃 Best regards
Andreas
😎

You are at the very beginning and I hope that you will continue the journey because there is a lot to discover, she is the best singer in the world (in my opinion), she won Norway's Got Talent with 7/8 but you will Find out for yourself and believe me, you will be just as addicted to her voice as all other fans (Angels), she is also called the barefoot angel with the 1000 voices, why she always performs barefoot is another story, she can give her voice to everyone Adapt and improve the song and also convey a lot of emotions and she not only has around 200 covers but also 13 originals written by her and 2 written for her, all of which are amazing and even now legendary and there is a lot to tell, I'm looking forward to it more reactions and have now subscribed to you, greetings from Germany, by the way, she is now 18 years old
Hi Peter, thanks for your thorough and insightful comment. It's quite impressive what she has managed to achieve at such a young age, it speaks for itself. Of course I will begin my journey and have many reactions to come, Welcome to the Channel!
She’s the girl with a 1000 voices
Then I have a long way to go!
Thank you and welcome to the amazing Angelina Jordan musical world . My recomendation would be start from age 6 to experience her uncanny vocal abilities .
Hi Dave, thanks for the support and suggestions, will follow advice! Welcome to the Channel!
A&R (Artists and repertoire)
Rob Christie Republic Records Studio Director at Universal Music Group Manhattan Beach, California is Angelina's A&R person, and he has been working with AJ since she signed with the largest record company in the world at the age of 14, three years ago. Rob was the MC of AJ Christmas Show that aired Dec 23, of 21. AJ’s Christmas Show that live-streamed on Dec 23 of 21 had some of the most important musicians of our time: Frank Sinatra's drummer for 6 years, and sun in-law of the late Henry Mancini, Greg Field has won 9 Grammys, and the bass player, Chuck Berghofer who also played for Sinatra for 6 years, and toured with Barbara Streisand, accompanied AJ on her Christmas Show, and they stated that she had the "storytelling ability of the greats, Streisand, Fitzgerald, Vaughan, including Sinatra, to name a few. The main pianist, a five-time nominated for Grammys, Shelly Berg, stated in all his years working with the greatest vocalist, he had never encountered a talent like AJ. Did I forget to mention Jimmy Z, the famous Sax Player who worked with Rod Steward, Etta James, the Eurythmics, and Doctor Dre, was part of the band for the show? Jimmy stated that AJ was the best he has ever played for. Rob Christie Republic Records Studio Director at Universal Music Group Manhattan Beach, California played the guitar, and was the MC of the show. (I can't list the complete backgrounds on all the band members because it would take several pages to do them justice.) Angelina stated that she would rather perform than take a breath, and she has never been forced to perform, it has been her decision. (CopyRight)
AJ now lives in West Hollywood in Los Angeles, where the record company Republic Records has built a separate music studio for her. She states; "I feel incredibly lucky to have been signed by one of the biggest record companies in the world. I have my own studio where I make my own music. There will also be a lot of concerts in the future because I have released an EP. I will soon go on a world tour and play my songs, (This was stated to TV2 in Norway on Aug. 21, 2023) (CopyRight)
Thanks again for the comment and info Larry, stay tuned for more!
@@GeorgeTheCloud You lost me and many others after this ridiculous reaction.
@@larrypifer1103 I am saddened by your comment. It is so unlike you.
You judging me on one reaction is like me judging Angelina on one performance, it's ironic.
@@alberttenfoot Did you not listen to what this idiot stated? I am disappointed in you for backing someone who does not have clue.
From Republic Records bio, Angelina said “Today, I sing barefoot as a reminder of all the kids in the world who need help and support.” See Angelina's book "Mellom to hjerter" (Between Two Hearts) for background story of 6-year old Angelina meeting shoeless girl to whom Angelina gave her shoes. A few of the hundreds of covered/original songs by Angelina include:
-- What A Difference A Day Makes (as 8-year old, sung Dinah Washington classic on Allsang På Grensen at Fredriksten Fortress in Halden, Norway on June 3, 2014. Angelina's presentation of song belies her age: th-cam.com/video/ZSfgCIGd7k4/w-d-xo.html)

Angelina dedicated song to anyone who has lost loved one. Angelina made Republic Records studio live video: th-cam.com/video/3KxvwuZ7oEM/w-d-xo.html)
-- 7th Heaven (co-wrote as 15-year old, Angelina said that “The song is a reminder to look at everything in a positive light and not get down on yourself. Most importantly-no matter what you’re doing-don’t give up. It’s also meant to make you dance.” Angelina made Republic Records studio live video: th-cam.com/video/bM8DzMRbiIc/w-d-xo.html)
-- Billie Jean (as 15-year old, Angelina completely turns Michael Jackson’s 1982 hit song on its head by doing a jazzy version that re-invents the song to something different than original: th-cam.com/video/xp67k9wk2Mw/w-d-xo.html)

-- Now I’m The Fool (co-wrote as 17-year old, music video shot in black and white. Angelina is sassy and pours out her heart with feelings of pain expressed visually and vocally: th-cam.com/video/8BXCVY_-RmU/w-d-xo.html)
-- When We Were Young (as 18-year old, sung Adele’s hit song at Angelina’s Las Vegas concert on February 29, 2024 at the Westgate on the same stage that Elvis performed 636 consecutive sold-out shows: th-cam.com/video/DUjE-WwnHis/w-d-xo.html)
-- Stay (as 18-year old, sung Rihanna’s hit ballad about temptation and inability to resist true love at Angelina’s Las Vegas Westgate February 29, 2024 concert. Angelina's soothing voice makes it quite beautiful: th-cam.com/video/MnORmGnJWNc/w-d-xo.html)

Hi there, thanks so much for the links and information, I have a lot of catching up to do!
For anybody new to Angelina, who wants to get to know her quickly, I created this playlist with 11 songs from age 7 to 17 (plus a trailer for a documentary describing her career up to 2023): th-cam.com/play/PLddfS789jBCrSUcMxwCiHeJi8A9zN5xt3.html
1. Gloomy Sunday, her 2013 audition to Norway's Got Talent, when she was 7, which was aired in 2014 and then immediatly went viral.
2. Fly Me to the Moon, live on The View, was her US debut later in 2014, and also went viral. It gathered more than 37 Million views on TH-cam, and many more on Facebook.
3. I Put a Spell On You, the song where Screamin' Jay Hawkins got his nickname from, has 11 Million Views so far. Her cover is closer to his original than most well known covers of it. She was 9 years old here.
4. Feeling Good, in a version sung on TV in 2016 while still being 10 years old, though she already started to perform the song in public about a year earlier.
5. A Million Years Ago, one of 13 Adele covers she did, as an impressive acoustic home studio recording.
6. Shield, from 2018, was the third original she relased that year at 12 years old. It is about the protection and support she gets from her family.
7. Bohemian Rhapsody, in her own stripped down arrangement on AGT the Champions Season 2, wowed everyone, including the group Queen themselves, who twittered "Wow, what a performance of Bohemian Rhapsody!"
8. Million Miles, which she wrote and produced together with Stargate, is about the loss of a close person (her grandfather), and was the first song she released 2020 with Republic Records.
9. 7th Heaven, her 2nd song with RR from 2021, is encouraging people to persue their dreams, like she did.
10. Suspicious Minds, done 2022, is an Elvis cover as unique as Bohemian Rhapsody was.
11. Love Don't Let Me Go, her third release with Republic Records, and the first new song on her recently released EP "Old Enough" of total 6 new original songs.
If you are more interested in her recent performances, here is a playlist containing releases and performances from her last 3 years, including all titels from "Old Enough": th-cam.com/play/PLddfS789jBCqMgW5xQeK97nibjJCeDme5.html
She cites Billy Holiday as her biggest influence. And she covered more songs from Adele than by any other artist, followed by Amy Winehouse, Elvis, and Sam Smith
Wow, thanks so much for the link and suggestions. I haven't heard much from Billy Holiday, might check him out as well, stay tuned!
@@GeorgeTheCloudBillie Holiday (I just realised I misspelt her first name here) is a she, a very influential jazz vocalist of the 1930th/40th.
Everyone is surprised when they first hear Angelina! She developed a mature voice and style at a very young age. As for this performance, remember this was a tribute to Narges Mohammadi, who is in prison in Iran for her activism on behalf of women, so Angelina was not going to show off her own skills. She kept it soft and soulful to respect Ms Mohammadi. The music was originally the theme to a movie (called 'Unchained') about a man in prison singing (in his mind) to his lover, so it is a very appropriate choice for this occasion. Please listen to some earlier work of Angelina - you will be surprised all over again!
Hi Fred, thanks for the context and support. I understand better now, will react to more from her soon. Stay tuned!

Hi Roger, wow thanks so much for this impressively colorful comment! I appreciate your support and of course I will continue to react to her, stay tuned!
The recipient for this year's award was Narges Mohammadi, an Iranian dissident, now in an Iranian prison for her outspoken messages and activism for women's rights. Narges' two twin children were here this evening for the event, and spoke on her behalf prior to Angelina singing. The children are Angelina's age and haven't seen their mother in years. She was able to speak with both before her performance and I'm sure, made that performance all the more poignant for her in the moment. Angelina is one-quarter Iranian herself, her grandmother Mery, full Iranian. If you are lucky enough to watch any of the videos of Angelina interacting with any of her family, especially her grandmother, you will quickly see the connection between those two--the love is palpable--it's a beautiful thing to behold.
As you continue to discover the wonders of Angelina's past, present and future, the inner beauty of this remarkable human being, I hope you start to feel the joy and goodness this young lady exudes with her gorgeously emotive voice.
Hi there, thanks for the information, really appreciate it. Stay tuned for more AJ reactions coming soon!
❤❤❤Love Angelina❤❤❤
Thanks for the support Kyle! Stay tuned for more...
Interesting, what first impression people have of Angelina. FYI, she wasn't ill at this performance, she got a natural smokiness to her voice.
I hear ya, I just reacted to another video from her today!
The main issue is you caught her at age 17 as your 1st time listening.
In order to totally get Angelina, one must listen to her early years and lead up to her recent years.
Check her out at age 7 on Norway's Got Talent, which she won, and then on a few of her at age 10-12, and then you will understand this particular performance much
more.
Hope to Subscribe, but i need a couple more reactions before i can do that.
I think you will become quite a fan after a few listens to our Angel.
I really liked that you did your commentary after the completion of the song!
Hi Richard, that's a fair assessment! The journey is just beginning so stay tuned for more and would love to have you on board in the future if you choose!
In hindsight I should have done what I have always done and suggested " I put a spell on you " I guess because I loved this performance so much everyone else would but I guess not for a first reaction .
You have no idea. Every thing you see and hear in this video, the tone and softness and also her clothes, are all an intentional choices of Angelina. No sickness or anything else, but every thing with a purpose. You will also not known that Angelina will be bare feet while she is performing on stage. Just remember that she is also known as "the girl with 1000 voices.
Hi there, I have a better understanding now. Stay tuned for the journey!
Subtle is apparently lost on you.
It only takes a few minutes to research the noble prize and know that Nages M is in prison for her human rights work in Iran and her children are in the audience. A controlled subdued performance was appropriate.
I hear ya, I usually don't do research because of time. It may be quick but it adds up over time. I dedicate around 5 hours a day to this channel, aside from a full time job, I go to bed at 3 AM. If I get something wrong, then I'm only human.
Welcome to “The World Of Angelina Jordan Astar” (full name). “The Barefoot Princess With The Velvet Voice And A Mona Lisa Smile”. Born Jan 10, 2006 in Oslo Norway. From her audition on Norway’s Got Talent (2014 - age 7 - Gloomy Sunday "Billy Holiday") through the final on America’s Got Talent The Champions (2020 - age 13 - Goodbye Yellow Brick Road "Sir Elton John") and the 130+ videos in between you will not be disappointed. This includes three originals song: “What Is Life”, “Oslo” and “Shield” Since then she has done many new covers and now her new singles "Million Miles" and “7th Heaven”, along with her movie soundtrack "Mercy" from the motion picture “The Hating Game”. As well as her brilliant version of Elvis’s “Suspicious Mind”. She released her latest album “Old Enough” and it is definitely some of her best stuff. My personal favorite is her cover of Lana Del Rey's "Born To Die". Although the soundtrack is really growing on me.
Hi Alan, thanks for the info and suggestions, interesting how her last name is Astar...A Star haha
Nice that you've finally found Angelina. She is an artist that you will love, if you give her the chance. I've subbed for more. Love from Norway ♥♥♥♥♥
Will definitely give her a chance, it's the list I could do. Welcome to the Channel!
@@GeorgeTheCloud 👍👍👍
Hopefully you will eventually get it.
I will!
Subscribed..everyone who reacts to our angel Angelina will has my subscription to the channel immy…thanks for the reaction to the great Angelina Jordan…the best female singer at the moment in the world..
Hi there, thanks so much for your kind comment. Welcome to the Channel!
...I would like to add: Angelina always consider the context and roots of a song. Here it's a song about a prisoner and his feelings to his love - and the nobel prize winner is also one... the song was well chosen for this event - and Angelina expressed this with her voice, she can adapt to the context so precisely that often people/reactors say at many different songs "...this song is a good choice for her voice..." but in fact Angelina is capable to adapt her voice to the song 😎
I do respect and admire an artist that is flexible and versatile, I'm excited to see what's next!
You probably haven’t noticed Angelina has a few very protective followers…LOL! Hang in there, we are not all fueled by knee jerk reactions, most are very understanding and patient, others seem to try and drive off new reactors as soon as they “perceive” she is somehow being wronged….a couple more AJ reactions I’m certain most will reconsider their reactions…we can only hope. Peace!
Hi there, thanks for your understand and support! I hear ya, I do understand where they are coming from but at the same time I will always provide genuine reactions, it might have been a rough start but I'm here for the journey. The 100 new followers today due to this video is proof that maybe I have a chance! haha
To get more insight into Angelina Jordan's backstory - you should watch (and maybe react to) this 20-minute documentary: Angelina Jordan, Born to Sing, The Early Years: th-cam.com/video/jE6x9V8Cnyw/w-d-xo.html - after you have done that, you might also want to check out this additional 16 min documentary on where is now in her career -- Angelina Jordan: 10 Years in the making: th-cam.com/video/I_59PZXkusc/w-d-xo.html
Hi Robert , thanks for the links and info, will do so!
@@GeorgeTheCloud Rob's recommendations are very helpful in getting some great background about AJ.
Welcome to the world of Angelina. ❤
And we need more.
Sub.
The journey is just beginning, Welcome to the Channel!
Welcome to the wonderful world of Angelina Jordan, our barefooted princess 👣👸
I see that many of my fellow angels has found you so I wont repeat all the information they already gave.
It's so great to see and find new reactors to AJ.
The more videos of AJ you react too, the more Angels will find you and your subscribers and comment box will be on 🔥
Thank you also for taking the time to read and reply to comments 😊
Looking forward to your next reaction of AJ
Some suggestions from me too:
I put a spell on you 9 y.o (b/w studio)
Bohemian Rhapsody AGT Champions 2020, 13 y.o
Million Miles, AJ wrote this after she lost her maternal grandfather in Nov-2019. AJ was 13 and the b/w studio version she is 14 when preforming this.
Best regards and new sub for your AJ journey from 🇧🇻
Hi Monica, thanks for your support and suggestions! Will react to more from her soon. Welcome to the Channel!
George, you're coming very late to the Angelina Jordan rabbit hole. Her fans are called angels and I think you have just called down the wrath of the angels on your head with this reaction.
I'm afraid you are correct, however I believe I can redeem myself and prove to be a worthy reactor to the angels!
In addition to performing well over 150 covers over the years - Angelina has been writing songs since she was 10 years 0ld - So far 12 have been released: Oslo, What is Life?, Shield, Million Miles, 7th Heaven, Love Don't Let Me Go, Now I'm The Fool, Fire and Rain, All My Fault, Good in Goodbyes, Diamond, and Our Time. Angelina has stated that she has written about 100 songs that have yet to be released. Her songs are taken from her Journal writings. When she was 10/11 she rewrote the Lyrics to Amy Winehouse's Back to Black and Rehab to make them more age appropriate at that time. In addition, Angelina performed an unreleased original song Princess of Ruins at her Las Vegas concerts - if and when that is officially released it will be her 13th original.
She sounds like a savant at this point! Very impressive to read about her achievements and accolades. The least I can do is watch.
@@GeorgeTheCloud, I once mentioned I think she is a musical savant, and I’m sticking to it, in my 75 years on this planet I’ve never heard a more versatile singer, she’s is the only singer that has brought tears to my eyes more than once, mostly because it is so moving to hear her incredible voice lent to so many iconic songs….she stands shoulder to shoulder with the greats. Have Subed for more Angelina…Peace
Welcome to the Channel!
She didn't blast it out. Perhaps because it wasn't the MTV Awards and she ain't Miley Cyrus.
I hear ya Greg, I now understand better due to context and the situation. Will react to from from her if you want to follow my journey...
@@GeorgeTheCloud I'm right behind you
Welcome aboard!
Your first time listening to Angelina Jordan was at 17 yrs old ??? WOW you are so far behind the 8 ball. Once you go down this rabbit hole then you will understand what I mean. But the Good thing is now you have the chance to become an Angel of Angelina Jordan, Which is a worldwide Family. Angelina started her Music videos at the age of 6 years old. You are so Lucking, If you Reacted to at least 2 Videos of her a week it would still take you 2 Years to cover all of her music videos. ( Trust me your Future is Bright )
HI Michael, thanks for the encouragement! I'm a bit late but what the heck, I'm gonna dive into her content soon. Welcome to the Channel!
I think you missed it because of not knowing the background. She's not sick. I believe she was being sensitive to the two kids who's jailed Nobel Peace Prize winner mother. James Thiel has a great video of the story behind it.
th-cam.com/video/T6iqTCPeIF4/w-d-xo.htmlsi=biYIOXrR4ne6mDfL
Hi Bob, agreed. Thanks for providing context and the link. I will continue to react to her..
Thank you for your reaction!. Hopeful you do more from Angelina.
Will do!
Check out the videos of her recent Las Vegas Concert on 2/29/24
Will take a look, thanks for the suggestion! Stay tuned...
Let's see Taylor S. do this. Fly to Norway for a one-shot deal. To sing at the Nobel peace prize presentation. Full national orchestra. Audience of dignitaries from all around the world. No auto-ANYTIHNG. No lip syncing. No back-up singers to hide or bury her voice. No stupid overtly disturbing posing or choreography. No rhinestone covered skintight body suit. Only a few rehearsals with the orchestra. Probably a European TV audience of millions. She has also played LIVE before tens of thousands, even hundreds of millions if you count her FIFA television performance. Try a few more for a better idea of this amazing young lady. Great honest reaction--THANKS. ❤❤❤❤❤
Hi there, completely agree, not many mainstream artists can pull this off!
George, I watched your reaction then I read a lot of the comments and your responses. I must say you handled ourself with class..Consider yourself Angel-ized 🤣 Other reactors have become defensive to the point of ugliness when faced with so much criticism. Well done young man. I have subbed and will watch your further forays into Angelina's world with interest.
Hi Lee, thanks so much for your understand and support! I can't even get mad because I understand where the fans are coming from, besides this type of response has only ever happened in 2 other videos in the history of the channel. I prefer to offer a genuine reaction with respect instead of exaggerating or pleasing everybody for views. Stay tuned as I will dive into her catalog, Welcome to the Channel!
@@GeorgeTheCloud You won't be sorry, or maybe in the end her voice won't be to your taste, that's OK too. I appreciate your honest approach.
Nice reaction . I think she's the best singer ever, certainly an amazing God given talent who was singing in the crib at the age of one and a half.
AJ sings to share her interpretation of a song with you, not to show off her voice. Below are links to some AJ videos age 6 to 17; she just turned 18 this past January 10th. Looking forward to more of your AJ reviews.
Her singing career began in the studio at age 6. She auditioned for Norways Got Talent at age 7, winning the competition after turning 8. At age 13, she was a golden buzzer finalist on AGT Champions and was signed to Republic Records at age 14.
She does all the vocal arrangements herself, even when she was a little kid. The musicians she has worked with over the years have always called her the boss. By age 6 she spoke Norwegian, Farsi, (her grandmother's Persian), and English. She plays piano, guitar, flute and violin. She has done over 200 covers and many originals, couple of EPs, latest EP Old Enough is all original songs.
Her parents have held the music industry at bay for years ensuring that she has a childhood and finishes school first. Part of the Republic Records deal reportedly being that they're not allowed to promote her like their other new artists, I think, until she's 18. Or until she gets out of school, which could mean high-school or college.
I think I read that she's enrolling in an arts school after high school. She did two shows at Westgate Las Vegas this past February 29th, with lots of fan recorded videos out there, unfortunately not always the best quality.
Age 6: Her grandmother who first exposed her to jazz booked studio time for her or this is part of an after school program. I've heard both stories. She recorded 3 songs. Here's a link to one of them- I Who Have Nothing. Turn on the captions and watch all the way to the end where they discuss how it went.
th-cam.com/video/RjQZKBpVaes/w-d-xo.htmlsi=ao3nLyBB7Ns7XQuL
Age 7/8: All performances on Norways Got Talent. She asked to go on the show at age 5 but had to wait until she was 7. You could do them individually with judges comments, or all at once without judges.

Wow, thanks so much for the info and the links! Stay tuned for more...
Looking forward to more reactions! Don't underestimate her. There's a reason for everything she does whether subdued or belting it she's a true artist! I know you're really going to enjoy more of her music!
🥰
Thanks for your support!
Most sing what they can. Angela sings what she wants and if a cover usually better than the original.
Hi Tim, I hear ya. Will checkout more from her soon, stay tuned!
BTW George the original is from Todd duncan from the film unchained 1955 . which is a more emotional performance to that of the RB which is great but more a pop version .Angelina i believe is closer to the original with her emotion .
Please say again that there are no idiots talking on Alan Papier's channel!!! I can hardly contain myself laughing! What did you want there?😂
🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
Ah ok got it!
@@frankk.8974 Well, we are all blessed 💫Angelina Angels 😇, also all in the great AJ PODCAST 👍👌👏! And no one is a devil 😈 like you, you should be ashamed of yourself!
Shes known as the singer with 1000 voices. Check out the reason for this tribue. You might better understand.
Hi Carolyn, I have better understanding now due to context. I will continue to react to her, stay tuned...
Nobel Peace Prize is presented in Oslo, Norway and the others I believe are presented in Stockholm, Sweden. She is so talented there is a behind the scenes video of her working with the director of KORK (Norwegian Radio Orchestra) and a pianist doing the arrangement for this performance. th-cam.com/video/P_cTGSaBVJo/w-d-xo.htmlsi=0uE48FOz9QB15QyI She crushed the ending! They kept this rendition subdued because of the occasion. Angelina and KORK just did a magnificent rendition of Unchained Melody! The perfect song for Narges Mohammadi Nobel Peace Prize! Third time with KORK, she did Back to Black and Summertime when she was 10! Has been invited twice to Nobel Peace Prize, previously appeared when she was eight! Narges is in jail for leading the fight for women’s rights in Iran! And let’s not forget Angelina’s Iranian heritage and Oslo is her hometown! At the end Angelina puts her hand over her heart acknowledging Narges children who were on stage and happen to be Angelina’s age and are living in exile in France! Would recommend her new unreleased original song: Princess of Ruins! Angelina debuted the song at her recent Las Vegas, Nevada concert, she tells the story why she performs barefoot on stage! Angelina stated “It is part of her identity and she will always perform barefoot.” Princess Of Ruins: th-cam.com/video/jbjzHYJuDjQ/w-d-xo.htmlsi=k-uMgT04l79gsUHJ
No she was not sick! She also is known for her lower register! She does not try to over sing a song! When she does a belt it is because she feels the performance needs it!
Hi Michael, thanks for the history and information! Stay tuned for more AJ
Thanks George for doing my request . it was on a Lucy thomas reaction that I first discovered your channel around 2 month's ago , as I recall you took some heat for that reaction from Lucy's fans , I do hope you don't receive the same from angelina fans for thinking that angelina may be sick, remember George in my request comments I said this performance by angelina was a subdued , restrained performance in keeping with the tribute to nobel prize winner " narges mohammidi " who is serving a long prison sentence in Iran for supporting freedom of expression for women and refusing to wear the higab .your reaction seems a little underwhelming but hey we angels ( name of angelina fans ) can't expect everyone to fall in love with angelina on the first listen, so George look forward to many more angelina reactions .❤
blah blah blah....

Hi Christian, thanks for the links and suggestions. Stay tuned!
Yeah, you got this all wrong. She wasn’t sick, she sang this with shuttle control out of respect for the environment she was performing in. You are way off on this one. You have no idea what is happening here. I’m sorry, I just don’t line up with you review here.
I was missing context, it happens but now I know!
If you didn't like this, then I think AJ is not for you. Try other artists instead. Very rare reaction to AJ this.
Agreed! Unusual reaction to this stunningly performed song for this very emotional and subdued occasion....done just the way it should be. Some folk don't get it and that is OK, she will be a world wide superstar in short order and already has several million fans.
He is a tomwhite troll!
@@frankk.8974😢
I respect this performance although not what I expected, it doesn't mean I can't watch her other ones!
I am?
With all due respect i hope you are hungry because you might have to eat some of those words.... So keep watching cause you have only heard one of her thousand voices ...
I will be happy to eat my words, I have been wrong before! The journey begins...
Great reaction. Angelina wasn’t “playful” with this song because the solemnity of the occasion didn’t call for it. Angelina does whatever is required of a performance, never “grandstanding” or “showboating” for effect.
I look forward to watching you discover exactly what I mean as you do future reactions. You will be blown away at her versatility and the beauty, power, and emotion in her voice, I GUARANTEE it!
Definitely check out her B&W version of Screamin’ Jay Hawkin’s “I Put a Spell on You” for starters. Here’s the link:
m.th-cam.com/video/nwFloCPXzCs/w-d-xo.html&pp=ygUXQW5nZWxpYmEgam9yZGFuIGlwLiBQdXQ%3D
Hi Peter, thanks for the kind words and the link, will react to that one soon. Stay tuned!
Hey Angels, don't be too hard on him - as he mentioned at the beginning, he expected a Bobby copy and got something completely different. Same situation as with Suspicious Minds, where some reacters expected an upbeat Elvis copy and were upset they got a rendition instead.
He's willing to learn and that's a good sign.
I am willing to learn indeed! I wasn't even upset, I enjoyed the performance but people wanted me to enjoy it even more. This is only one reaction of many to come!
Hmm well just lost another potential subscriber. Not a very intelligent reaction. Catch you some other time.
Not a potential subscriber! This poor clown is blacklisted from many peoples. A typically suggestion from the Troll tomwhite!
I may have lost the battle but not the war, maybe you will change your mind in the future!
😂😂😂 thank u for the reaction and your honesty but you are so far away from AJ's artistry that it's scary. Stay blessed!
Hey I've been wrong before! I will continue to react to her and learn more...
@@GeorgeTheCloud my suggestion is this, find one of your favorite songs that she has covered and then take in her interpretation of it, her storytelling, regardless of her age. I will stay tune.😊
Thanks for the suggestion Pedro!
#ANGELINAJORDAN #HOMEFREE #VOICEPLAY #BASSGANG
Thanks for watching!
Try other artists instead. Very rare reaction to AJ this.
I will react to more of her performances, can't stop with juts one video to be fair!
You couldn't be more wrong.
Hi Cindy, I was missing context. I have no problem admitting I’m wrong. Will check more from her soon!
You should consider doing some research about the event before commenting on it. You might actually understand what it was all about then. Angelina does not sing to feed her ego she sings the song to suit the occasion. How did you ever get 12 thousand subs?
Hi Brent, I don't do a lot of research before the video because it's time consuming and I already spend around 5 hours daily on the channel aside from my full time job. I believe I got 12 thousand subs because I have been consistently updating 3-4 videos per day since I began, I give artistic opinions with a bit of humor which people enjoy. Judging me on one video is like me judging Angelina on just one video. I will continue to react to her in case you want to follow my journey...
Congratulations you got just about everything wrong my last time you have to large a learning curve.
Hey I'm open to learning!
You are 100% wrong. She sang it to suit the occasion.
I apologize for that and have corrected myself in the latest reaction to her, check it out!
You said it best yourself - "You can't judge a singer with just one song". And unfortunately for you and your audience, somehow you chose possibly the worst song for a first Angelina Reaction. Angelina's Nobel Peace Prize Tribute performance REQUIRES a good deal of contextual knowledge (background) for a reactor to have a chance in he11 of making an even slightly coherent reaction. I know you have already seen this video, but you should watch the mini-documentary that I created due to this exact issue : CONTEXT IS EVERYTHING FOR THIS PERFORMANCE, UNLIKE ANY OF ANGELINA'S HUNDREDS OF OTHER PERFORMANCES.
Please watch the video on my channel, either on your own, or record yourself watching & react to it for you and your audience. If you don't think it was worth it, then trash it, but I feel it will completely alter your point of view and how you interpret her performance. The text in the video can go by somewhat quickly in parts, so don't hesitate to pause - the text is important. Finally, you should note that the complete Performance itself - the performance you just reacted to here - is included at the end of the video, so you will have the opportunity to watch it again with the perspective that the background offers. The video ends with a Narration from Angelina herself, speaking to her fans.
The video includes segments from 4 or 5 more songs Angelina has sung, reaching back as far as age 8, so in addition to gaining context for the Nobel performance, you will get an expanded viewpoint of Angelina's singing itself.
I hope you take the opportunity to do so, for you and your audience. I have nothing to gain here except teaching people about Angelina - my channel is dedicated to Angelina, it is entirely Non-Monetized and I likewise have no external Monetization. Thanks for Your Time. James Thiel 😇Jim

Thanks for your comment and information, really appreciate you taking the time to do so. Well we can't go back now so I will learn from this and move forward with other reactions, stay tuned!
If you are reacting to be amazed by acrobatics and show off, you have come to the wrong place. Angelina is a very special person, not your ordinary superstar. You are so off in your reaction. This is one of the best performances from her, so I am afraid you may never get it even if you dig deeper. Sorry.
I see your point, but at the same time opinions are always changing and I'm capable of adapting and reconsider my thoughts! Stay tuned for my next reaction to her...
wow, not a great reaction....but if you stick around.....you WILL change........I did sub only to see at least one more time.
Hi Ann, thanks for the comment and for subscribing! I understand this was not the reaction many people expected, but I can say I'm ok with it because I was being honest and commented on what I knew. However, with context everything makes more sense now! Stay tuned...
@@GeorgeTheCloudAs a person who’s listened to AJ every day for five years now may I strongly advise you do a short research into each song and it’s setting before reacting? Angelina never does anything by accident.
She did not want this event to be about her or take away from the solemn occasion. It was quite obvious that you had no idea what you were talking about but liked listening to your own voice. If you had any desire to try and react logically, you might have attempted to find out what the event was about. Fashion, Star Wars etc ??? ,what a joke🤑🤐
Hi Timothy, sorry to hear you didn't enjoy the reaction. I have replied to every comment on here so if you're interested in hearing what else I have to say I would suggest you read the comments. I also reacted to another song by her more recently.
100% wrong!
I apologize George, watch my latest reaction to her...

Lyrics "Promise"
You said that you'll be there when I get home
You'll do the laundry cook the meal for all
But I smell neither garlic nor the cotton when I'm here
All I hear is silence that you left when you disappeared
Why didn't you say
That you wouldn't stay with me forever
Like then on a day you first met me
I don't even care why you had to leave baby
You tear me apart
Look how selfish you are
Left me behind when I gave you my life
Where are you now
How am I supposed to tell them How
And you promised that you wouldn't leave before me
Tell me why you couldn't keep your promise
I know that you can't hear me like before
But there are things I think you need to know
The things that you would know If you'd just wait a little more
But you don't like to wait and now they think that it's their fault
Why didn't you say
That you wouldn't stay with me forever
Like then on a day you first met me
I don't even care why you had to leave baby
You tear me apart
Look how selfish you are
Left me behind when I gave you my life
Where are you now
How am I supposed to tell them How
And you promised that you wouldn't leave before me
Tell me why you couldn't keep your promise
Hi there, thanks for the suggestion, I'll check her out soon!
