The best version of this song that I’ve heard. Just magical. We shouldn’t forget that Angelina participated in many events in support of charitable organizations. This was an event held in support of "Plan International", a humanitarian and development organization with the goal of advancing children's rights and equality for girls around the world. "Foster Parents" sponsor needy children around the world with monetary pledges that go directly to helping the specific children whom they sponsored and are able to communicate with them via Plan International. The event was held on December 30, 2016 at Chateau Neuf Center in Oslo and broadcast on TV2. Angelina was one of several performers and delivered a stunning performance. Most of Angelina's performances after winning Norway Got Talent at age 8 were for children charitable organizations. This Amazing young lady with the big voice and bigger heart is 18 years old today and still performs barefoot to remember the shoeless girl that she met when she was 6 years old and to remind us all of the many needy children around the world. Thank you for this enjoyable reaction video.
INSANE indeed. I love that momentary, sly look at the camera, that was so much in her face. There is a video of her at ,8, with curlers in her hair, outside, with a full jazz orchestra, practicing, Summertime, for NGT, like this is nothing unusual.Thank you Richard.
Thank you for another great reaction Richard!!! When you said “ she is so normal “- yes , she’s totally unpretentious, humble but confident! No TRYING to impress. She feels and conveys the meaning of the song with her rich vocals
You are absolutely right. It is insane that Angelina needs nothing other than a mic, she doesn't even need musical instruments. Her voice...her voice❤❤❤❤❤
Most consider Nina Simone's rendition as 'The Gold Standard', but here, Angelina at 10 years of age, performs what I believe to be 'The Platinum Standard' for the song. Not only is her vocal arrangement 'to die for', but her coordination of this masterful orchestra as well.
Richard, thank you for your reaction. Angelina will be performing two shows at the Westgate Resort and Casino, in Las Vegas, on February 29, 2024. She sounds even better live.
This is one of my top 3 life performances of Angelina! As you said: unbelievable. Thank you, Richard, for your deep thought, heart felt reaction! It's always the most satisfying to hear and listen to real musician reacting to the Wonder that is Angelina Jordan! As one can feel the real, skill recognizing appreciation! Thanks again 🙏. And I'm looking fwd very much to your future videos for Angelina. Love & Kindness
Thank you for another excellent reaction to Angelina. In my opinion, she is the best singer in the world, and there are thousands of others who would agree with me. Every moment you spend featuring her on your channel will being you great emotional satisfaction. There are so many things I get from this performance. Some I recognised immediately and those I missed were brought to my attention by the more observant Angelina fans (her Angels) and I thank them for letting me know what I had missed. (1) The realisation that at the age of 10 Angelina has shed all childishness from her voice. (2) A feeling that the placement of the spotlight at the beginning of her performance was deliberate. If it was, then, to my mind, it was a brilliant move. (3) The fact that Angelina arranged this song and that the band kept out of the way and let her voice be the focus. (4) The incredible low note she sang for the word "good" at the beginning and end of the performance. (5) That wonderful crescendo at the end. (6) The was Angelina used her left arm and hand throughout the performance (7) The way she changed the microphone from her right hand to left hand, so that she could flip her hair back with her right hand. (8) The cheeky smile she gave to the cameraman when she realised he had focused on her at about 5.16 in your reaction video. (9) The sideways look and grin she gives to her instrumentalists just after she curtsies to the audience -- as if to say, "Yeah, we killed it, guys! Now let's go get some ice cream!" (10) The almost instantaneous switch from "performance" mode to that of a young child who, curtseyed and gave a sweet smile to the audience as an acknowledgement of their applause. Others have commented that the performance by Nina Simone should be considered the "gold" standard for this song. Until recently, I had never watched her performance, but have now done so. They just cannot be compared, for Angelina's arrangement is totally different
I totally agree with you my friend. Angelina on a James Bond soundtrack would be phenomenal. So many people have said this and I believe in the near future we may actually hear her on a James Bond soundtrack because she is perfect for that type of movie. I want to thank you for continuing your wonderful journey with Angelina Jordan, our beautiful barefoot princess. This rendition of "Feeling Good" is one of the most mind-blowing renditions you will ever hear from a 10-year-old girl. Can you imagine standing on that stage with a live orchestra with a live concert audience and national television and delivering a absolutely perfect and polished professional performance is astounding. This young lady is fearless on stage. She was born to sing on stage. Nothing makes her uncomfortable. She is so confident in her ability to deliver what she wants to sing. Keep posting my friends all the angels all over the world. Love your channel. You are such a great supporter of this tremendous young artist and in the near future we know that. she will be on the top of everybody's list in the coming years. That is an absolute truth. Have a great day my friend and sending much thanks and love from Canada 👍🇨🇦❤️
I hope, like you, that she will remain the unique and humble person she is now. I hope her family will take good care of her and not allow " the industry" to ruin her .
From time to time, I have ogive myself a kick in the butt to remind myself that until very recently she was still a child. It all boils down to the fact that when Angelina sings, I believe, as she sings with total conviction.
… Even if I keep repeating myself...nobody sings this song better than Angelina...nobody!! I can't find the words to describe how perfectly it is sung!! So perfect... world class... the orchestra is also sensational!! ✨💎✨ Thank you
Ten was a great year for Angelina. She had many killer performances in several different genres that year. I cannot even choose a top five list for Angelina's tenth year ... each song has it's own special qualities.
Live band, difficult song, live audience, second language, 10 years old, superior stage presence, no nerves and perfect throughout from start to amazing finish. Let's see some of the latest Grammy winners do this at ANYY AGE.
She sounded like a mature woman even at the age of 10. Angelina is an exceptional talent and I hope she will stay down to earth, but I'm sure she will. Music is in her blood. 🙂
Pretty sure she won't change - watched her last two concerts live, in Norway and Portsmouth. The emotion towards her audience was just off the wall. Was standing 10 feet away in Norway and could see tears running down her face as she got so emotional at being singing live again. Even her Mum is so nice - she was walking around the crowd before the show - got to chat to her and she was also pretty emotional and couldn't believe how all the concerts were sold out and that people had come from all over the World to see AJ.
We see a clear definition of prodigal talent here. As a long-time fan I deeply appreciate your comments. Now 18 years old, she will do two shows in Vegas this month, her first big public stage in the U.S. Her many years in the limelight have taken a little bit of a toll in regards to her simple approach. Now she is super-gussied up in gowns and fake blue eye contacts. She has grown into a very tall, stunning, beautiful girl and it's easy to see why she wants to leave behind the I-just-got-out-of-bed look. The charming stagecraft we saw here has given way unfortunately to something kind of forced and unnatural, with her endless commentary between songs along the lines of, "Thanks guys. I know I'm blessed to have you as fans." My fervent hope is that Mercury, her label, has made sure to give her stagecraft lessons before Vegas in order to polish off very rough edges that developed recently. But in the humility department, she needs no help from anyone. From all her overdone social media postings, we can be pretty confident that what we see tells us she remains completely down to earth. Finally, as preposterous as it sounds, her unbelievable vocal talent has only gotten better.
This was not a competition show, but rather a performance! This is one of many favorite performances by this astonishing artist. TY for comments & reaction.😊
Not sure if you've reacted to her performance of "Back to Black" yet, but just prior to her getting on stage for that she had been out to an amusement park with some of her friends ... being a 10 year old.
One that was not on your compilation that absolutely should have been is Angelina’s original: “Million Miles”. There are several versions of it out on TH-cam. It doesn’t matter which one you watch, they’re all incredible.
Richard thank for the beautiful reaction to this amazing performance by Angelina. Her very personal reading of this classic, which she has developed on her own, is sensational not only for a 10-year-old girl, but for an adult as well, there is not only her understanding of the musical texture of the song, but also the ability to change it in a very personal way. The natural talent of this girl is simply unreal and that ending of it ... 💛🧡❤ I'm adding two link of her piano sessions of this song, 2 years before this show (at only 8 years), to also understand how a fantastic young artist works. th-cam.com/video/nQbyK_frFiw/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/QdN2dNS1NzQ/w-d-xo.html
Your big mistake is not following the video to the very end: Angelina's early performances (like this one) frequently end with Angelina visibly returning from her own musical world and quietly becoming just an unassuming little 10-year old girl...
My understanding is that she started arranging her own music for performances when she was ten years old, so I believe she arranged this as well. I have always loved this one, and it is a favorite of mine, but one of the reasons that’s so is because of the band and how it complements her vocals. There you go!

Thank you for a great reaction to Angelina's excellent performance. It would have been interesting to see your reaction to a song I often return to, Every Time We Say Goodbye, sung by the also 10-year-old Angelina. The Norwegian presenter says they are happy to hear this before Angelina travels to the US. That context gives this song extra depth. It was filmed on a rooftop in Oslo. You can find it here: th-cam.com/video/KRSI8HmTHJA/w-d-xo.html
Many believe English is her third language. But that can not be the case. When she was 1 yo (in january 2007) her father was employed as Asset Manager Statoil Iran with his office in New Mexico, USA. (Source: Linkedin). His family probably moved to the US with him, and there are at least three videos showing AJ in the US in her early childhood (she moved back to Norway in time to starting school at 6). - And how would a 3 yo girl become fascinated by Simon Cowell if she could not understand what he was saying? Thus: English is probably her first language (in parallell with Norwegian).
So, here we have 10 year old Angelina singing her own vocal arrangement of a song that previously had two gold standard versions, Nina Simone and Michael Buble. Go listen to those two songs and see who you think has the gold standard now. The three versions are very different, all great in their own right, but one stands above the other two, you decide.
Two years later she covered a Bond sountrack live, giving the original a run for the money. "Diamonds are forever": th-cam.com/video/9RGZRg9YH3k/w-d-xo.html
Vc deveria reagir a Iza Victória no shadow do programa do RAUL Gil mesmo programa que revelou Gabriel Henrique! Também será um fenômeno tem apenas 14 anos!👏😍🇧🇷
Your comments are all spot on: she has this remarkable combination of true humility and complete confidence in her incredible talent...
Thanks for beautiful reaction.!❤
The best version of this song that I’ve heard. Just magical.
We shouldn’t forget that Angelina participated in many events in support of charitable organizations.

Angelina was one of several performers and delivered a stunning performance.
Most of Angelina's performances after winning Norway Got Talent at age 8 were for children charitable organizations.

Thank you for this enjoyable reaction video.
Thanks for this info, David. I've loved this performance for a while, but had no idea it was for charity.
"She has the voice of no one" you nailed it!!
YES.
INSANE indeed. I love that momentary, sly look at the camera, that was so much in her face. There is a video of her at ,8, with curlers in her hair, outside, with a full jazz orchestra, practicing, Summertime, for NGT, like this is nothing unusual.Thank you Richard.
Thanks for her support, she is just a miracle, God sent to gift to the world.
Thank you for another great reaction Richard!!! When you said “ she is so normal “- yes , she’s totally unpretentious, humble but confident! No TRYING to impress. She feels and conveys the meaning of the song with her rich vocals
The best rendition of this song ever !!!
You are absolutely right. It is insane that Angelina needs nothing other than a mic, she doesn't even need musical instruments. Her voice...her voice❤❤❤❤❤
Angelina Jordan is the finest musical instrument on the planet.
When it comes to musical talent, none can compare to Angelina Jordan. She is not just a singer, but a musical instrument herself. Her voice is capable of producing the most exquisite hypnotic sounds, from the softest whispers to the most powerful belts. She can sing in any genre, any language, any mood. She can improvise, harmonize, and mesmerize. She is the finest musical instrument on the planet, and we are so lucky to be in this time and place to hear her perform. ©
Most consider Nina Simone's rendition as 'The Gold Standard', but here, Angelina at 10 years of age,
performs what I believe to be 'The Platinum Standard' for the song. Not only is her vocal arrangement
'to die for', but her coordination of this masterful orchestra as well.
I think she amazes herself sometimes😍
She's unbelievable human being, that's why i admired her so much. She''s the best!! Great reaction. Thabk you. 🙂✌️
Great reaction. She is 18 now and still humble and kind.
Richard, thank you for your reaction. Angelina will be performing two shows at the Westgate Resort and Casino, in Las Vegas, on February 29, 2024. She sounds even better live.
Never anything normal, you are correct this is world class talent even at 10. Nice reaction, thanks.
Good commentary and video. Your fashion taste is great too 😉
A barefoot princess with a hypnotic voice. As usual, a vocal master piece. Great reaction Richards.
This is one of my top 3 life performances of Angelina!
As you said: unbelievable.

At the age if 8 and 9 she went to Japan and sang live in Japanese. No problem!!
From time to time, I have ogive myself a kick in the butt to remind myself that until very recently she was still a child. It all boils down to the fact that when Angelina sings, I believe, as she sings with total conviction.
I’ve heard AJ say she goes to another dimension when she sings. Seeing AJ in Las
Vegas at the end of this month. Anyone jealous? 😊
Yes. Jealous😄
Not jealous, just envious! Have fun.
Both!!!lol
Yes! EXTREMELY envious here on the other side of the world! lol!
… Even if I keep repeating myself...nobody sings this song better than Angelina...nobody!! I can't find the words to describe how perfectly it is sung!! So perfect... world class... the orchestra is also sensational!! ✨💎✨ Thank you
Ten was a great year for Angelina. She had many killer performances in several different genres that year. I cannot even choose a top five list for Angelina's tenth year ... each song has it's own special qualities.

Hey, really great reaction. Angelina is a miracle and I love her. 👍♥️

You mentioned a Bond song . Have you seen her original song " Shield" at 12 yrs old . ( Live Performance) . Outstanding !!!
The James Bond reference is perfect -- and has been mentioned many times. Let's hope it happens . . . .
Many believe English is her third language. But that can not be the case. When she was 1 yo (in january 2007) her father was employed as Asset Manager Statoil Iran with his office in New Mexico, USA.
