Many consider Nina Simone's rendition to be 'The Gold Standard', but Angelina at 10 years of age has performed what I consider to be 'The Platinum Standard' for the song. Her arrangement and coordination of the accompanying musicians exactly where she wants them to come forth is truly mindboggling.
Celia you were so right! She is home in the song. AJ writes her own versions for covers, writes her own songs over 100 of which 15 are released. She is considered the boss by band members but is considered totally respectful and kind. This is best at age 10. Suggest her winning performance at 8 in Norway Got Talent singing “summertime “
Let’s see, just a 10 year old girl on stage with a band and just kills this song! She knows how to work the camera watch as the camera goes around her and she makes the brief eye contact without missing a beat, there are seasoned performers who can’t do that. She then walks us up the scale and smash’s it with a Nordic Hammer! Smiles at you at the end, yep I did that! But in a humble way!🇳🇴🇺🇸💯 Between the ages 10-12 Angelina’s vocal instrument had exponential growth! She plays piano and guitar! She has at least 16 original songs that are out and has stated she has written over 100!

Gloomy Sunday was her first performance on tv on Norway's Got Talent, link; ; th-cam.com/video/d3gSho9yf88/w-d-xo.html
Gloomy Sunday on Norways got talent was her first public appearance. AJ has written or cowrtten several songs. She has played piano, guitar, violin and flute form an early age.
Poem Mery's finest work of ART. In a world where music touches the soul, there's a voice that stands apart. Angelina Jordan, with her melodies so bold, is a living work of art. Crafted by Mery Zamani's hand, her talent is a rare find. Like a masterpiece that's grand, she leaves no heart behind.
In addition to the 150+ covers Angelina has sung over the years of her career - she has also been writing songs since she was 10 years 0ld - So far 13 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, Our Time, and Bad Valentine. 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 that she has only performed in concert - if and when that is officially released it will be her 14th original. She also performed two more original unreleased songs at her Los Angeles concert: Thank You and What Am I To You?
Angelina has written over 100 songs. Plays 2-4 instruments. Mainly piano and guitar. Composes And is now learn how to produce in her own studio that her label built for her.
She may be 10 years old singing this song but her soul is probably about 70 years old and her voice is of a veteran performer singing for many years. Her poise and confidence which you called her 'being safe' is very evident and when asked about this Angelina's reply was, "I am most comfortable in my life when I am on stage singing to and for people."
There are many great singers but very few who can hit you in the feels, every time. Angelina's ability to make me understand the story of the song, while conveying the needed emotions, is unmatched, in my opinion. Angelina plays piano and guitar and has said she has written more than 100 songs. We have heard 16 originals to date. Here is the list. "What is Life" first sung at age 11. We don't know how old she was when she wrote each song. Age presented is her age when she first sang it. "Oslo" age 11 "Shield" age 12 "Million Miles" age 14 we know she wrote this one in the days after her maternal grandfather passed in 2019 when she was 13 "7th Heaven" age 15 "Love Don't Let Me Go" age 17 "Now I'm the Fool" age 17 "Fire and Rain" age 17 "It's All My Fault" age 17 "Good in Goodbyes" age 17 "Diamond" age 17 "Our Time" age 17 "Princess of Ruins" age 18 ..... debuted at her 2 shows in Las Vegas 2/29/24 "Bad Valentine" age 18 worked with Toby Gad "Thank You" age 18 debuted at her Glendale concert 9/20/24 "What Am I to You" age 18 debuted at her Glendale concert Should include songs for which she was the first to sing "I'm Still Holding Out for You" age 10 .... considered one of her best vocal performances by many "Song for A" age 12 "Above the Water" a EDM song released January 31, 2020 "We're the Best" sung with RedOne at the FIFA Awards February 27, 2023 Angelina wrote new lyrics for two famous songs by Amy Winehouse, "Back to Black" and "Rehab" since it was inappropriate for a preteen to sing the original lyrics. For "Back to Black" Angelina wrote the new lyrics in the 24 hours prior to the recording, then needed just two takes.

Angelina's first televised performance (also before a live studio audience) was on Norway's Got Talent. She entered at the age of 7 and WON the show that season! Here's a link to her first audition on NGT, Gloomy Sunday: th-cam.com/video/d3gSho9yf88/w-d-xo.htmlsi=ZelIw3x5iVjDzCOG
Angelina's Norske Talenter audition th-cam.com/video/d3gSho9yf88/w-d-xo.html at age seven went viral and led to her being invited onto TV and radio shows across several continents and also to provide vocals for charitable and commercial promotions. She also played a nightclub singer in a Netflix series, opened for Norah Jones in the Far East and opened an 85th birthday tribute concert for and at the behest of the late Quincy Jones . . . all before she hit her teens! She donated much of what she earned over this period to children's and environmental charities.
Just in case no one has mentioned it, the song you were thinking of at the beginning of your reaction is "I Feel Good", a James Brown classic. Angelina covers this also when she was 8 and it is stellar. '
She goes barefoot because when she was 6 she gave her shoes to a homeless girl with no shoes, and swore to never wear shoes when performing, unless regulations or conditions require her to wear them, until all children of the world have shoes! Here is a link to her Norway's Got Talent performances, all four of them in one 10 minute video! th-cam.com/video/O2bX15tYFVk/w-d-xo.htmlsi=sVSbl7wWKhPbWQGW
She's at home on stage, singing, whether age 7, singing for Norway's Got Talent (which she won), or here, this night, singing for these people. It's who she is, what she was meant to be, what she loves to do. Most of us, besides not having the talent, would simply faint...that would be my debut. Here's what I believe about Angelina: All things that can be beautiful coalesce as one in Angelina. She is nothing short of amazing, and it culminates with her gorgeous singing voice. Hers is the kind of voice that connects with your heart and touches your soul. Angelina makes you feel what she feels as she vocalizes the writer's lyrics...and it's always intimate, frequently bringing you to tears, always leaving you in awe. There is so much more for you to learn about this amazing young lady, so much more to treat your ears and the musical part of your soul to.
Some of this may be a review for you but it's definitely worth a look again because there will be some new information for you. You will find out why Angelina is barefoot! Thank you for your insightful reaction and appreciation of this performance. Norwegian born Angelina Jordan began singing at the age of one and a half, and by age three was listening to jazz and classics legends on repeat. Her grandmother was her greatest influence, but Angelina chose her own path. Her first studio performance was at age 7, singing I Who Have Nothing. She won Norway's Got Talent at the age of only 8, singing old time classics from Billie Holliday and George Gershwin, and became one of the youngest ever vocalists to win an international Got Talent Show! Her performance at 9 years old of Screamin Jay Hawkins, I Put a Spell on You is considered one of the finest jazz recordings ever of a 9-year-old vocalist! Angelina also went viral on America's Got Talent the champions in 2020 with her unique versions of Bohemian Rhapsody and Goodbye Yellow Brick Road. Angelina sings in English which is only her third language! She is a true prodigy. She is now 18, and has recorded a huge library of songs, including covers and originals. A major attraction to Angelina's music is the emotion and attitude she conveys, Even though she may not have experienced the life events! She is known as the barefoot princess of 1,000 voices as she can adjust her tone, style, and register for any song or genre. She was signed by Republic Records when she was 14. She was not widely promoted for a few years, as her family wanted to allow her a normal childhood. However, things have changed since she graduated school in the past year. She released two original music video singles from Republic Records, Love Don't Let Me Go, and Now I'm the Fool, coinciding with her new six song EP called Old Enough. She performed two shows in Las Vegas in February, and also performed Unchained Melody at the Nobel Peace Prize in Oslo last December. She performed in Los Angeles in September. She is currently working with Toby Gad, a multi Grammy award-winning producer and composer, and has released two songs. If I were a boy, originally by Beyoncé, and Bad Valentine, which was officially released at her September 20th concert in LA. We believe a world tour could be in the making to coincide with the release of an album. Here is a semi-chronological TH-cam playlist for Angelina of over 200 songs, beginning with 16 performances including originals, her EP, and a few specialty songs. Then it starts chronologically beginning with Gloomy Sunday from Norway's Got Talent. th-cam.com/play/PL2v8kgVeo4EbQD6l_WAVjOfItquzW7oEc.html&si=HrEm55lV164yKJqu Here is an extended playlist of approximately 400 performances compiled and categorized, thanks to mosttodo10. th-cam.com/video/IxPiumYD_r0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=anjDyUnXdkPjCEf0 Why does Angelina sing barefoot? The answer may makes many people emotional. It is related to a promise she made to herself and to the world when she was only 6 years old. She was traveling in the Middle East with her mom and grandmother and they came across a young orphan girl with no shoes and scarred feet. Angelina gave the girl her own favorite shoes. Angelina ask the girl what she wanted to be when she grew up and she said a doctor, but she could not because she had to take care of her siblings. She asked Angelina the same question and Angelina said I want to sing for the world. The young girl said she would pray for Angelina. Since then, Angelia has forever performed barefoot as a reminder of all those less fortunate. At age 9 she wrote a book about this experience, Between two Hearts, becoming the youngest ever published author in Norway. She also has helped raise millions for children's charities. She even stated at 8 years old that she would be donating her winnings from Norway's Got Talent to charities. She is a special individual, and one you cannot follow without developing a special bond. Angelina captures hearts because she is humble and has compassion for humanity. She is a messenger of love, light, and hope, wrapped in a blanket of humility. Her stated goal from childhood was to sing for the world to spread love and peace. I trust this will cause you to embrace her as millions of others have, and that you will continue down the rabbit hole from which you will not want to escape. Peace and love.

Great reaction. My friends. Only 300 and or so covers and originals to go through Angelina's huge repertoire of music. She's been singing live since the age of 6 to now at 18 and I hope you get a chance to go through all her different ages and enjoy the wonderful and absolutely tremendous music that she is able to produce. She was only 10 years old in this video and she delivered an absolutely iconic version of this beautiful song. As you will find, Angelina is so comfortable, fearless and confident on stage and this is where she was meant to be. It's her second home and she loves beings on stage singing live to her audience. She has no nerves. You have a live audience, huge National TV audience and a great fabulous orchestra. She will always amaze you because she is always able to sing with such a mature sounding voice and she does sound like so many of the great blues and jazz artists of the past. I hope you continue on the wonderful Journey that as we all have with our beautiful barefoot princess Angelina Jordan. Keep posting my friends and sending you much thanks, Angela from Canada 👍🇨🇦❤️
You said good true things! Specially the woman (sorry i didn't get your names). She's called THE BAREFOOT PRINCESS read the story behind that. You were close by guessing.. Go on with your AJJ 🎉
Please read her bio on Google why Angelina, the Barefoot Angel, performs barefoot in her public performances as an advocate for poor children. Angelina doesn't get nervous because she enters in a "beautiful world" in her mind while performing, as she has explained few times in her interviews. Thank you both for reacting to this song by Angelina Jordan covering the Nina Simone's version of song with Angelina's own coloring a song as usual.
She always feels so good and comfortable Life on stage 🎉😎 she did a lot of concerts until now and I was very happy to be only a few steps away from her in Norway two years ago. Next chance 14. Dez in LA 💕 her Christmas concert 🕊️ Her first time life on stage was the audition for NGT with Gloomy Sunday, known as the suicide song during the WW2, but she did an excellent sad Song and at the end of the competition she won the show in a landslide 😮🎉
Angie said in an early interview, she's never nervous when singing. Here's the first audition on NGT: th-cam.com/video/d3gSho9yf88/w-d-xo.html She's also playing piano and is writing her own songs with some cowriters. She said she has notebooks with over 100 song drafts she's written over the years. Her newest original is Bad Valentine: th-cam.com/video/r8Ygh7AgxS8/w-d-xo.html Short version about the barefoot thing: She met a poor kid in the ME that had no shoes, she gave her her shoes and vowed to always perform barefoot until all kids have shoes.
Enjoying your Angelina reactions. The performance that introduced her to the world was her Norways Got Talent competition at 7 years old. There are 4 songs she did then and each one showed extraordinary growth from the last one. Her second one she sang without any music and so you can hear her voice in great detail. Good reactions guys.
Nice reaction! If you would like to know why Angelina does not wear shoes when she performs, an interview on Norwegian TV provides the full explanation. You can find it here: th-cam.com/video/-cCLDY0CSZ8/w-d-xo.html
Firs performance for the musical The roar of the crowd, the smell of greasepaint 1964 Written by Anthony newly +1 other . The most iconic cover is from nina simone .❤
That was my first video too. Was a recommendation by TH-cam and I wondered why a very young girl would be singing a old, classic, jazz song. I was hooked at first listen. th-cam.com/video/ZSfgCIGd7k4/w-d-xo.htmlsi=Kti5Nq9WGqcknxLZ
*Why Angelina always performs barefoot* At age 6, while traveling in the Middle East with her mother and grandmother, Angelina noticed a girl around her age standing on the side of the road, asking people to step on her bathroom scale to be weighed in hopes of getting some money. Angelina took off her shoes so as to not get the scale dirty and stepped on the scale many times to make the girl feel better. Angelina befriends the girl who was not wearing shoes and has scars on her feet, and learns she is an orphan. The orphan girl tells Angelina how beautiful she thinks her shoes are. Angelina says her shoes don’t fit her well and she wants to give her shoes to the orphan girl who thanks Angelina for giving her the shoes. Angelina asked the girl what she wanted to be when she grew up and the girl replied, “I want to become a doctor, but that will never happen since I have no parents and I have siblings so I have to do whatever is necessary for us to survive.” Angelina told the girl to never give up on her dreams. The poor girl asked Angelina what she wanted to be when she grew up and Angelina replied that she wanted to sing for the whole world. The poor girl said she would pray every day so Angelina’s dream would come true. Angelina never learned the orphan's name but called her Princess. The orphan girl replied, "princesses live in castles, we live in ruins". Angelina titled her song about this story, "Princess of Ruins". Angelina still says she thinks of that homeless girl every day and has always performed barefoot to remind her of all the children who are less fortunate. At age 9, she became the youngest published author in Norway’s history by writing a book about this encounter in the Middle East. PLEASE PURCHASE Angelina’s book from her merchandise store on her official website.
Great reaction guys! Here's her latest, recently released original with Toby Gad (video hasn't been released yet so it's audio only, but this version is probably best listened to without any visuals). Bad Valentine - Piano Diaries (Jazzy version)- th-cam.com/video/6Ln9Tajsuzk/w-d-xo.html
Angelina likely sang when she was in Mama Sara's womb. The earliest recording of Angelina singing was at the age of 18 months. She is an extremely talented song writer. You should really investigate why Angelina always sings barefooted on stage. To make a long story short.Angelina lived in the middle east when she was 6 years old. On a wet and cold day she saw a homeless orphan girl when visiting a market. The girl was weighing people for money to support her siblings. She didn't have any shoes on and her feet were scared. Angelina stopped and spoke to her for quite awhile and took her favorite boots of her feet and gave them to the girl. She also asked her what she wanted to be when she grew up, the girl said a doctor but said that would never happen because she is poor. Angelina told her never to give up hope. The girl asked Angelina what she wanted to be. Angelina said she wanted to sing for the world. The orphan girl said she would pray for her. From that day Angelina committed herself to.sing barefooted until child poverty is addressed. ❤❤👣❤❤
You touch on the right note when you mention about her bare feet. some of the angels will inform you why she performs bare foot. She audition at 7 on NGT. Watch her 4 performances on NGT when she was 7 and won when she was 8.
There is a whole wonderful story behind the bare feet. Yes her Angels will enlighten you to that story. She wrote a book at 9 about why she’s barefoot.
"at home in the song" That's a good description. Another good one is "What a Difference A Day Makes" I think she was 8. th-cam.com/video/ZSfgCIGd7k4/w-d-xo.htmlsi=Ip4mgPhtvCX6-MpT
Hi guys if you wanna see Angelina going wild live at age 9 don’t go far, just check her impressive I Got You/ I Feel Good: th-cam.com/video/I6Sw5oDR3_A/w-d-xo.htmlsi=Ua7Bvozao1yMwg76
Consider reacting to the epic astonishing high energy live performance of 18 year old Angelina Jordan performing her new original song "Bad Valentine" with co-writer Toby Gad, the renowned songwriter and producer, who delivered a powerful piano performance of this song at the historic Alex Theatre in Glendale, California. on Sept. 20, 2024. This live performance stands out as one of her finest. With pristine sound from the mixing board and professionally recorded video, it surpasses both the official version released on September 20, 2024-featuring a vocal track produced two years ago-and the official music video released on November 7, 2024, which also relies on the same older vocal track. Available from Toby Gads TH-cam channel under videos (Bad Valentine (Angelina Jordan and Toby Gad Live at The Alex Theatre). th-cam.com/video/S030JbpJz1w/w-d-xo.html But there’s also an incredible audio-only Jazzy Version. youtu.be/watch?v=6Ln9Tajsuzk
Pretty lady, I don't know whether you're in a relationship with this self-centered, domineering boy-pretending-to-be-a-man; but if you are, dump him immediately! You deserve so much more. It's obvious he's not very interested in what you have to say. Being a musician is no excuse to treat you that way. He controls the reaction with a heavy hand, never solicits your opinion, sometimes talks over you and clearly fails to show you the respect that anyone sharing the reaction microphone is entitled to. Find a man who knows and shows you your worth. Just sayin'.

Angelina is so fun to watch, I love the way people react when she starts to sing. And then think, how is this possible? Is this real!! WOW!😊❤😮😊❤❤❤😊😮
Many consider Nina Simone's rendition to be 'The Gold Standard', but Angelina
at 10 years of age has performed what I consider to be 'The Platinum Standard'
for the song. Her arrangement and coordination of the accompanying musicians
exactly where she wants them to come forth is truly mindboggling.
Celia you were so right! She is home in the song. AJ writes her own versions for covers, writes her own songs over 100 of which 15 are released. She is considered the boss by band members but is considered totally respectful and kind. This is best at age 10. Suggest her winning performance at 8 in Norway Got Talent singing “summertime “
Great reaction! ❤👍

Poem
Mery's finest work of ART. In a world where music touches the soul, there's a voice that stands apart. Angelina Jordan, with her melodies so bold, is a living work of art. Crafted by Mery Zamani's hand, her talent is a rare find. Like a masterpiece that's grand, she leaves no heart behind.
In addition to the 150+ covers Angelina has sung over the years of her career - she has also been writing songs since she was 10 years 0ld - So far 13 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, Our Time, and Bad Valentine. 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 that she has only performed in concert - if and when that is officially released it will be her 14th original. She also performed two more original unreleased songs at her Los Angeles concert: Thank You and What Am I To You?
Angelina has written over 100 songs.
Plays 2-4 instruments.
Mainly piano and guitar.
Composes
And is now learn how to produce in her own studio that her label built for her.
She may be 10 years old singing this song but her soul is probably about 70 years old and her voice is of a veteran performer singing for many years. Her poise and confidence which you called her 'being safe' is very evident and when asked about this Angelina's reply was, "I am most comfortable in my life when I am on stage singing to and for people."
There are many great singers but very few who can hit you in the feels, every time. Angelina's ability to make me understand the story of the song, while conveying the needed emotions, is unmatched, in my opinion. Angelina plays piano and guitar and has said she has written more than 100 songs. We have heard 16 originals to date. Here is the list.
"What is Life" first sung at age 11. We don't know how old she was when she wrote each song. Age presented is her age when she first sang it.
"Oslo" age 11
"Shield" age 12
"Million Miles" age 14 we know she wrote this one in the days after her maternal grandfather passed in 2019 when she was 13
"7th Heaven" age 15
"Love Don't Let Me Go" age 17
"Now I'm the Fool" age 17
"Fire and Rain" age 17
"It's All My Fault" age 17
"Good in Goodbyes" age 17
"Diamond" age 17
"Our Time" age 17
"Princess of Ruins" age 18 ..... debuted at her 2 shows in Las Vegas 2/29/24
"Bad Valentine" age 18 worked with Toby Gad
"Thank You" age 18 debuted at her Glendale concert 9/20/24
"What Am I to You" age 18 debuted at her Glendale concert
Should include songs for which she was the first to sing
"I'm Still Holding Out for You" age 10 .... considered one of her best vocal performances by many
"Song for A" age 12
"Above the Water" a EDM song released January 31, 2020
"We're the Best" sung with RedOne at the FIFA Awards February 27, 2023
Angelina wrote new lyrics for two famous songs by Amy Winehouse, "Back to Black" and "Rehab" since it was inappropriate for a preteen to sing the original lyrics. For "Back to Black" Angelina wrote the new lyrics in the 24 hours prior to the recording, then needed just two takes.

Angelina's first televised performance (also before a live studio audience) was on Norway's Got Talent. She entered at the age of 7 and WON the show that season! Here's a link to her first audition on NGT, Gloomy Sunday: th-cam.com/video/d3gSho9yf88/w-d-xo.htmlsi=ZelIw3x5iVjDzCOG
Angelina's Norske Talenter audition th-cam.com/video/d3gSho9yf88/w-d-xo.html at age seven went viral and led to her being invited onto TV and radio shows across several continents and also to provide vocals for charitable and commercial promotions. She also played a nightclub singer in a Netflix series, opened for Norah Jones in the Far East and opened an 85th birthday tribute concert for and at the behest of the late Quincy Jones . . . all before she hit her teens! She donated much of what she earned over this period to children's and environmental charities.
Just in case no one has mentioned it, the song you were thinking of at the beginning of your reaction is "I Feel Good", a James Brown classic. Angelina covers this also when she was 8 and it is stellar.
'
She goes barefoot because when she was 6 she gave her shoes to a homeless girl with no shoes, and swore to never wear shoes when performing, unless regulations or conditions require her to wear them, until all children of the world have shoes!
Here is a link to her Norway's Got Talent performances, all four of them in one 10 minute video!
th-cam.com/video/O2bX15tYFVk/w-d-xo.htmlsi=sVSbl7wWKhPbWQGW
She's at home on stage, singing, whether age 7, singing for Norway's Got Talent (which she won), or here, this night, singing for these people. It's who she is, what she was meant to be, what she loves to do. Most of us, besides not having the talent, would simply faint...that would be my debut. Here's what I believe about Angelina:
All things that can be beautiful coalesce as one in Angelina. She is nothing short of amazing, and it culminates with her gorgeous singing voice. Hers is the kind of voice that connects with your heart and touches your soul. Angelina makes you feel what she feels as she vocalizes the writer's lyrics...and it's always intimate, frequently bringing you to tears, always leaving you in awe.
There is so much more for you to learn about this amazing young lady, so much more to treat your ears and the musical part of your soul to.
Some of this may be a review for you but it's definitely worth a look again because there will be some new information for you. You will find out why Angelina is barefoot!
Thank you for your insightful reaction and appreciation of this performance.
Norwegian born Angelina Jordan began singing at the age of one and a half, and by age three was listening to jazz and classics legends on repeat. Her grandmother was her greatest influence, but Angelina chose her own path. Her first studio performance was at age 7, singing I Who Have Nothing. She won Norway's Got Talent at the age of only 8, singing old time classics from Billie Holliday and George Gershwin, and became one of the youngest ever vocalists to win an international Got Talent Show! Her performance at 9 years old of Screamin Jay Hawkins, I Put a Spell on You is considered one of the finest jazz recordings ever of a 9-year-old vocalist! Angelina also went viral on America's Got Talent the champions in 2020 with her unique versions of Bohemian Rhapsody and Goodbye Yellow Brick Road. Angelina sings in English which is only her third language! She is a true prodigy.
She is now 18, and has recorded a huge library of songs, including covers and originals. A major attraction to Angelina's music is the emotion and attitude she conveys, Even though she may not have experienced the life events! She is known as the barefoot princess of 1,000 voices as she can adjust her tone, style, and register for any song or genre. She was signed by Republic Records when she was 14. She was not widely promoted for a few years, as her family wanted to allow her a normal childhood. However, things have changed since she graduated school in the past year. She released two original music video singles from Republic Records, Love Don't Let Me Go, and Now I'm the Fool, coinciding with her new six song EP called Old Enough. She performed two shows in Las Vegas in February, and also performed Unchained Melody at the Nobel Peace Prize in Oslo last December. She performed in Los Angeles in September. She is currently working with Toby Gad, a multi Grammy award-winning producer and composer, and has released two songs. If I were a boy, originally by Beyoncé, and Bad Valentine, which was officially released at her September 20th concert in LA. We believe a world tour could be in the making to coincide with the release of an album.
Here is a semi-chronological TH-cam playlist for Angelina of over 200 songs, beginning with 16 performances including originals, her EP, and a few specialty songs. Then it starts chronologically beginning with Gloomy Sunday from Norway's Got Talent. th-cam.com/play/PL2v8kgVeo4EbQD6l_WAVjOfItquzW7oEc.html&si=HrEm55lV164yKJqu

Why does Angelina sing barefoot? The answer may makes many people emotional. It is related to a promise she made to herself and to the world when she was only 6 years old. She was traveling in the Middle East with her mom and grandmother and they came across a young orphan girl with no shoes and scarred feet. Angelina gave the girl her own favorite shoes. Angelina ask the girl what she wanted to be when she grew up and she said a doctor, but she could not because she had to take care of her siblings. She asked Angelina the same question and Angelina said I want to sing for the world. The young girl said she would pray for Angelina. Since then, Angelia has forever performed barefoot as a reminder of all those less fortunate. At age 9 she wrote a book about this experience, Between two Hearts, becoming the youngest ever published author in Norway. She also has helped raise millions for children's charities. She even stated at 8 years old that she would be donating her winnings from Norway's Got Talent to charities. She is a special individual, and one you cannot follow without developing a special bond.
Angelina captures hearts because she is humble and has compassion for humanity. She is a messenger of love, light, and hope, wrapped in a blanket of humility. Her stated goal from childhood was to sing for the world to spread love and peace. I trust this will cause you to embrace her as millions of others have, and that you will continue down the rabbit hole from which you will not want to escape. Peace and love.

Great reaction. My friends. Only 300 and or so covers and originals to go through Angelina's huge repertoire of music. She's been singing live since the age of 6 to now at 18 and I hope you get a chance to go through all her different ages and enjoy the wonderful and absolutely tremendous music that she is able to produce. She was only 10 years old in this video and she delivered an absolutely iconic version of this beautiful song. As you will find, Angelina is so comfortable, fearless and confident on stage and this is where she was meant to be. It's her second home and she loves beings on stage singing live to her audience. She has no nerves. You have a live audience, huge National TV audience and a great fabulous orchestra. She will always amaze you because she is always able to sing with such a mature sounding voice and she does sound like so many of the great blues and jazz artists of the past. I hope you continue on the wonderful Journey that as we all have with our beautiful barefoot princess Angelina Jordan. Keep posting my friends and sending you much thanks, Angela from Canada 👍🇨🇦❤️
You said good true things!
Specially the woman (sorry i didn't get your names).
She's called THE BAREFOOT PRINCESS
read the story behind that.
You were close by guessing..
Go on with your AJJ 🎉
Please read her bio on Google why Angelina, the Barefoot Angel, performs barefoot in her public performances as an advocate for poor children.
Angelina doesn't get nervous because she enters in a "beautiful world" in her mind while performing, as she has explained few times in her interviews.
Thank you both for reacting to this song by Angelina Jordan covering the Nina Simone's version of song with Angelina's own coloring a song as usual.
She always feels so good and comfortable Life on stage 🎉😎 she did a lot of concerts until now and I was very happy to be only a few steps away from her in Norway two years ago. Next chance 14. Dez in LA 💕 her Christmas concert 🕊️
Her first time life on stage was the audition for NGT with Gloomy Sunday, known as the suicide song during the WW2, but she did an excellent sad Song and at the end of the competition she won the show in a landslide 😮🎉
Angel here ❤
Angelina Jordan Our Barefoot Princess of Jazz. ❤👣
❤❤🔥🔥
Angie said in an early interview, she's never nervous when singing.
Here's the first audition on NGT: th-cam.com/video/d3gSho9yf88/w-d-xo.html
She's also playing piano and is writing her own songs with some cowriters. She said she has notebooks with over 100 song drafts she's written over the years.
Her newest original is Bad Valentine: th-cam.com/video/r8Ygh7AgxS8/w-d-xo.html
Short version about the barefoot thing: She met a poor kid in the ME that had no shoes, she gave her her shoes and vowed to always perform barefoot until all kids have shoes.
Angelina plays piano and guitar - and does so on many of her tiktok and instagram videos - she uses them as practice tools and for songwriting.
Excellent reaction!
You will soon find out you will run out of words to describe her, like everyone else
Enjoying your Angelina reactions. The performance that introduced her to the world was her Norways Got Talent competition at 7 years old. There are 4 songs she did then and each one showed extraordinary growth from the last one. Her second one she sang without any music and so you can hear her voice in great detail. Good reactions guys.
Impeccable Timing!! WOW!!❤😊❤😊❤
Nice reaction! If you would like to know why Angelina does not wear shoes when she performs, an interview on Norwegian TV provides the full explanation. You can find it here: th-cam.com/video/-cCLDY0CSZ8/w-d-xo.html
Firs performance for the musical The roar of the crowd, the smell of greasepaint 1964 Written by Anthony newly +1 other . The most iconic cover is from nina simone .❤
Have you heard her sing What a difference a day makes? Blew my mind, it was the first song I heard her sing and she was very young
That was my first video too. Was a recommendation by TH-cam and I wondered why a very young girl would be singing a old, classic, jazz song. I was hooked at first listen. th-cam.com/video/ZSfgCIGd7k4/w-d-xo.htmlsi=Kti5Nq9WGqcknxLZ
8 years old, just months after winning NORWAYS GOT TALENT
Time signature is 6/8 (not 4/4) so you are correct 🙂
*Why Angelina always performs barefoot*
At age 6, while traveling in the Middle East with her mother and grandmother, Angelina noticed a girl around her age standing on the side of the road, asking people to step on her bathroom scale to be weighed in hopes of getting some money. Angelina took off her shoes so as to not get the scale dirty and stepped on the scale many times to make the girl feel better. Angelina befriends the girl who was not wearing shoes and has scars on her feet, and learns she is an orphan. The orphan girl tells Angelina how beautiful she thinks her shoes are. Angelina says her shoes don’t fit her well and she wants to give her shoes to the orphan girl who thanks Angelina for giving her the shoes.
Angelina asked the girl what she wanted to be when she grew up and the girl replied, “I want to become a doctor, but that will never happen since I have no parents and I have siblings so I have to do whatever is necessary for us to survive.” Angelina told the girl to never give up on her dreams. The poor girl asked Angelina what she wanted to be when she grew up and Angelina replied that she wanted to sing for the whole world. The poor girl said she would pray every day so Angelina’s dream would come true. Angelina never learned the orphan's name but called her Princess. The orphan girl replied, "princesses live in castles, we live in ruins". Angelina titled her song about this story, "Princess of Ruins".
Angelina still says she thinks of that homeless girl every day and has always performed barefoot to remind her of all the children who are less fortunate. At age 9, she became the youngest published author in Norway’s history by writing a book about this encounter in the Middle East. PLEASE PURCHASE Angelina’s book from her merchandise store on her official website.
Great reaction guys! Here's her latest, recently released original with Toby Gad (video hasn't been released yet so it's audio only, but this version is probably best listened to without any visuals).
Bad Valentine - Piano Diaries (Jazzy version)- th-cam.com/video/6Ln9Tajsuzk/w-d-xo.html
Angelina likely sang when she was in Mama Sara's womb. The earliest recording of Angelina singing was at the age of 18 months. She is an extremely talented song writer. You should really investigate why Angelina always sings barefooted on stage. To make a long story short.Angelina lived in the middle east when she was 6 years old. On a wet and cold day she saw a homeless orphan girl when visiting a market. The girl was weighing people for money to support her siblings. She didn't have any shoes on and her feet were scared. Angelina stopped and spoke to her for quite awhile and took her favorite boots of her feet and gave them to the girl. She also asked her what she wanted to be when she grew up, the girl said a doctor but said that would never happen because she is poor. Angelina told her never to give up hope. The girl asked Angelina what she wanted to be. Angelina said she wanted to sing for the world. The orphan girl said she would pray for her. From that day Angelina committed herself to.sing barefooted until child poverty is addressed. ❤❤👣❤❤
You touch on the right note when you mention about her bare feet. some of the angels will inform you why she performs bare foot. She audition at 7 on NGT. Watch her 4 performances on NGT when she was 7 and won when she was 8.
Great, thanks! You should definitely watch Angelina cover "I Fee Good" by James Brown! She was 9 yrs old in a live performance.
great reaction! you are both great.
Beware the right-handed hair flip.
10 years old... how???
There is a whole wonderful story behind the bare feet. Yes her Angels will enlighten you to that story. She wrote a book at 9 about why she’s barefoot.
Actually guys "I feel good" is indeed by James Brown and she sang it in a concert at 9 years old (2015): th-cam.com/video/I6Sw5oDR3_A/w-d-xo.html
😀
This is a Nina Simone sang this😊
"at home in the song" That's a good description. Another good one is "What a Difference A Day Makes" I think she was 8. th-cam.com/video/ZSfgCIGd7k4/w-d-xo.htmlsi=Ip4mgPhtvCX6-MpT
Hi guys if you wanna see Angelina going wild live at age 9 don’t go far, just check her impressive I Got You/ I Feel Good: th-cam.com/video/I6Sw5oDR3_A/w-d-xo.htmlsi=Ua7Bvozao1yMwg76
Consider reacting to the epic astonishing high energy live performance of 18 year old Angelina Jordan performing her new original song "Bad Valentine" with co-writer Toby Gad, the renowned songwriter and producer, who delivered a powerful piano performance of this song at the historic Alex Theatre in Glendale, California. on Sept. 20, 2024.
This live performance stands out as one of her finest. With pristine sound from the mixing board and professionally recorded video, it surpasses both the official version released on September 20, 2024-featuring a vocal track produced two years ago-and the official music video released on November 7, 2024, which also relies on the same older vocal track.
Available from Toby Gads TH-cam channel under videos (Bad Valentine (Angelina Jordan and Toby Gad Live at The Alex Theatre). th-cam.com/video/S030JbpJz1w/w-d-xo.html
But there’s also an incredible audio-only Jazzy Version.

Pretty lady, I don't know whether you're in a relationship with this self-centered, domineering boy-pretending-to-be-a-man; but if you are, dump him immediately! You deserve so much more. It's obvious he's not very interested in what you have to say. Being a musician is no excuse to treat you that way. He controls the reaction with a heavy hand, never solicits your opinion, sometimes talks over you and clearly fails to show you the respect that anyone sharing the reaction microphone is entitled to. Find a man who knows and shows you your worth. Just sayin'.
