Breaking out of character to wave and smile adorably was always heart-melting, though. That's part of her trademark: blow your mind; melt your heart.
Yep :)
EXACTLY RIGHT!
That kind of thing can be endearing...in the right atmosphere. There's a time and place for just about everything.
A home video published on youtube seems like the right atmosphere.
I’d probably advise her to save that for when there’s a live audience to wave and smile at. I would probably suggest using opportunities like this (with no audience for distractions) to really dig into the character. But to each their own.
One of the many things that amazes me about this performance is that within hours of Adele's release she posted it short on TT, followed only 10 days later with this magnificent studio cover. Genius.
You're the first reactor I've seen who noticed how Angelina so beautifully and expressively uses her hands and body language!
She was 15 years old when she did this wonderful job I love the remainder of her emotions or feelings how she handled or sale it was great she’s a storyteller
At the end of a song it's like she comes out of the trace that she was in while singing. I see it strongly in I Put a Spell on You.
Very interesting and nice reaction; I am surprised you have had aggressive comments as Angelina's fans are not like that generally... and you are clearly just giving your honest views and appreciate many of the great things about Angelina... thank you !
Thank you. I really appreciate that. Yes, the first video I reacted to of hers....the comments got pretty dark (even violent). Kept me from reacting to her again for nearly a year. But since I have had a lovely experience with her fans. Trolls will be trolls, I guess.
Most all fans are nice angels but there are some full blown fanatics that aren’t equipped to watch reaction videos nor read comments.
@@tnae I am sorry you have had that.. one thing is generally clear that such trolls have a disproportionate impact... I find that too - when I read comments on an Angelina video for example there can be MANY lovely ones but then just one very negative one can pray on your mind....
I think we have decades to go to enjoy the every growing, evolving and influencing voice of Angelina..... I am sure that Adele feels proud of this version of her music.
I love this rendition of Adele's song. I could listen to her voice everyday- the high notes she sings, is just breathless! She emotes authenticity/ I adore Angelina! 💞💙💞
OK, next step. Go directly from here to her B&W music video version of “I Have Nothing”. It used to be a Whitney Houston song….I understand that Angelina now has the rights to her version. Have fun!
I've reacted to her sing that song in two different videos. It's possible the one you're looking for is already on my channel.
She is getting so good that I believe she will rewrite Music History and become a Music Legend.
Adele is one of the best.
But nobody can emit the emotion and soul of a song like Angelina.
I think she reads the lyrics first before listening to the song.
In this way she can understand the feeling and emotion the artist wants to convey.
Then she arranges it to be able to dramatically convey the feeling and emotion to us.
She takes iconic songs and makes them Angelina songs.
Her vocals, tones and smokiness do the rest. She is already The Greatest of All Time! Just amazing!!
She is Total Zen to listen to.
Chills every time.
again, thank's a billion for reacting to Angelina Jordan. This was a very interesting reaction with a professional perspective. Stay well and healthy, best regards from Berlin/Germany

Gracias por la reacción, excelente comentario sobre los movimientos parece ser que el equipo de trabajo de ella le ha hecho las mismas observaciones y correcciones lo cual me parece perfecto. Si ella acepta evolucionar debe aprender, posiblemente sea el ejemplo de millones de niñas que quieren verse reflejadas en una feminidad inteligente, sutil y elegante ademas del talento natural. Actualmente la guerra cultural que vive el planeta esta invirtiendo la polaridad llevando a los hombres a verse femeninos y a las mujeres como hombres. Angelina es por ahora la esperanza de algunos como yo de que las mujeres vuelvan a la feminidad que han perdido. Abrazos
Beautiful reaction!
I appreciate this reaction. Your commentary is spot on for this performance. Yes Angelina is continuing to hone her skills in every aspect of her talents. The very young videos done at her home she would end the song with a wave and a bright “bye”! Her My Funny Valentine and Suspicious Minds shows a very mature body image for the performance.
She will be top of her game in the next few years she just grows and grows seems no stopping her. Absolutely awesome singer and person
superlative reaction....
really loved & learned from it. thanks.
In terms of her stage presence, you might want to check out her latest concert, 10 July 2022, in Kurbadhagen, Sandefjord, Norway. Here is a complete playlist of that concert, fan-recorded but good quality. Those lucky enough to be there have described it as magical.

Angelina e dono de uma voz abençoada por Deus! Parabéns Angelina linda interpretação!
AJ is a phenomenon since Norway Got Talent when she was just 7 years old. She is able to cover any voice of any singer, and just nailing all the notes.
People need to realize you are a performance coach. Not a voice coach. I'm grateful to hear a different take on this wonderful girl. It's why I watch
Adele wrote the song, but Angelina sings it better than any other soul
Really enjoyed your comments and observations. This young lady is such an inspiration. Look forward to your next Angelina reaction.
Coming soon: like 10 or so Angelina uploads! They will be coming to the membership page and then about one a week to TH-cam. Hopefully in the next few days to a week we will get started. Thanks for watching :)
@@tnae Really looking forward to that!!
Beautiful reaction! Love from Norway ♥♥♥
I'm supporting just because of Angelina.... whatever's from her
A lot of people said when she did that dropped off the shut it down and made it feel like there’s one anymore that’s what we’ve been said I didn’t matter either way because I’ve been pulling her since she was one and a half thing and jazz to present date well aware of what you can and can’t do she can build you can’t sing soft she can sing any kind of song do you want to give her
2:11
How can she be supported musically.?.
we all know she's got the golden angelic voice..She needs that
would love to hear this master jam to some JOPLIN (JANICE)
😃great reaction ))
I don't think you should worry about what her diehard fans say. I follow 3 Angelina fan groups and if you say one critical word against her, you get crucified. I hope she has at least a couple of critical people around her or she'll never learn how to get better. I've always thought that stage presence was her weak point not while she's singing but between songs and sometimes when an instrument is soloing. If you watch her full concert from last year you'll see what I mean. You are just doing what a real reactor is supposed to do, react and honestly report what you see, hear and feel.
Thanks for that. I have honestly and for the second time been debating with myself about whether I want to keep putting videos on her out. You are correct. But in looking at her presence on stage I always to try keep in mind that the young lady is still a child, lol. I don’t expect her to feel 100% confident or be 100% in control all th time. That would be crazy. She is a remarkable talent and has a bright future in front of her. I feel the same about hoping she has critical people around her but more than that I hope she has grounded people around her who can communicate that it’s perfectly okay to have an insecurity or to get tired or to be unsure or to make a mistake. It’s perfectly ok and a part of every humans journey no matter the circumstances. The pressure some of her fans put on her by claiming things like she never gets tired or nervous or she never makes mistakes….I just imagine trying to live up to that on top of being a 16 year old girl. It must be hard and I just hope she has good people around her.
Just let it play aaaaaaaahhhhh
For me for this song they both sang this beautifully..with added plus factor to Adelle because when singing your original it is more difficult because you dont have the exact anticipated result.
While when singer cover you have all the chance to just replicate or to make little additions or go beyond better than the orig..
plus Adelle had more belting power than Angelina.
I agree with you in everything... including the way that she almost always drop the character when the singing ends but the music not yet. We know how much this should never happen on stage (in theater or music performances). But there are two things to consider:
1) In the home videos she recorded, this is not so important, given the informality involved.
2) Her smile, demonstrating her affection for the audience (whether on video or live) is a part of her thing, her charisma... and carried over from her childhood performances.
Perhaps this gesture is a consequence precisely of the short, homemade videos (on TikTok, etc.) which, by tradition, have this final "bye-bye" or the smiling thing.
I Angelina Jordan Astar she is coming to your own her voice is magnificent she’s a storyteller and master artist
I do realize he’s only 15 years old here
Angel.ina🙏😇❤️
1st look at your podcast reviews. Welcome to the unique & wonderful world of the barefoot princess of song. I know you will find it to be a sweet journey.
Have a great day and glad to have your review and it was great she was great singer Oh thanks better than Adele I like her version better she’s a storyteller she puts her motion before her voice
😀😀😀😀😀
Nice!
Epic!
Well said
Thanks 😊
👍👍💙💙💙
Better than original ❤❤❤
Wow! Gutsy take! 👍🏼
let's react other cover same those song...easy on me cover Putri Ariyani...
I say something but no one give me thumbs up 👍
Than i take out the word
Check Morissette’s cover
….. Scoot over a lil’ bit Adele gonna need some room.
I’m gonna block she has all the all the copyrights the whole whole music you’re not gonna get a block you just missed our things that you were
Not more than a cover.
a bit too pitchy and over stylized to me.
Ridiculous.
effortless
Thanks Brandon. ❤️ Angie ❤️
Angelina ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Thank you for this one. You and AJ hit me hard emotionally. Thank you for putting into words the feelings of the heart evoked listening and experiencing Angelina and her artistry.
When the book is written or the documentary is finished I hope it matches your beautiful insights here.
Angelina Jordan Astar you blow me away.
And she is 16!!!🤯
To put this performance in perspective the listener must keep in mind that this is still a fifteen year old child covering one of the most famous and world renowned vocalists in the world. Angelina is so self assured and confident in her vocal abilities that she is absolutely fearless when it comes to her choosing to cover the best of the past and current artists. More often than not her vocal arrangements of the covers she sings are better than the original song’s.
As far as I’m concerned I much prefer to listen to Angelina’s interpretations of Adele’s songs. There is no question that Angelina was endowed with highly developed musical intellect, intuition, instincts and the emotional hypersensitivity to lay bare the essence of the lyrics.
😃👍
Fabulous reaction to what is in one word a " Masterpiece " .
Abolutely no voice like hers !!!
💕👍
I’m besotted with AJ. Obsessed even and have subscribed to many reactive clips to hear another perspective and I have to say, I’m really loving yours (and yes, just subscribed 😊). I love the way you describe the physical aspects of her performance. And when you mentioned her glottal closure, it takes me back to when she was singing Bohemian Rhapsody and there was this gorgeous note which of course, I played over and over and noticed the placement of her tongue. I don’t know if that’s what gives her the ability to deliver the beautiful vocal fry register people talk of or not. I’ve only ever noticed it once before with, I think Björk so am wondering if it’s because of her native language and how she delivers words. I’m no singer so clueless but I do know that with this once in a lifetime gorgeous child enigma, when I’m listening to her, I stop thinking. She has me totally trapped and captivated.
@Davide Rossi thank you. I personally thought I was rabbiting on too much but hard not to.
Yeah stage presence can be a lot of different things. My mistake really, or our mistake. You could have easily been interpreted as asking for cartwheels and for her to juggle flaming batons while singing. You also regarded likely her most personal song she wrote, an original, as something you didn't think she was feeling, and you weren't believing. Of all songs from the gifted storyteller we know, the kind you found here, that was the incorrect song to say that about. But in a sense, it was if anything guarded. As it maybe had to be. A very human and relatable thing, guarded emotions. Perfectly reasonable stage presence emotion to have if you ask me. Similar to Adele's performances of this exact song really, easy on me. But I mean it was mostly just that reaction, one of your first, it happens. Mistakes were made by you and some commenters like me, we know more about you, you know more about her, and apologies for sure if any opinions or corrections seemed over the top. We love her storytelling, consider it a strength since she was a child, a scary and uncommon strength. Forgive the passion, certainly her voice is a big part of how easily she carries us to another dimension, a part of the storytelling that isn't necessarily supposed to be, and wouldn't be maybe for someone trained to look for certain things. A separate leg up to her storytelling, helping it out. One could easily fall for this girl, and roll their eyes at a stage presence coach, thinking about Katy Perry dancing around with a thousand dancers in strange costumes, flying around on ropes and pullies. As I'm sure you can understand.
Quality comments and a quality reaction. That's the way it should be done and I look forward to more!
Who is Angelina Jordan? She is a 16-year-old gifted vocalist who won Norway's Got Talent at the age of eight! More importantly, she is a committed humanitarian who gave away her shoes to an orphan girl at the age of six, and whose goal is to bring peace and love to the world. Her humble and grounded values have inspired me, and with her music, have captured my emotions, and have impacted the way I view my life. I eagerly await her first album of original music with Republic Records, and also know she will continue to devote her energies to charitable causes. I trust that reactors and fans alike will interact with Angelina's videos and channels, which should be linked on the description page, to boost her algorithm. I know she would want the same consideration for each featured artist. Angelina is destined to become a superstar, both musically and as a human being, and you as a reactor and we as her fans can help her achieve that! Peace and Love.
Have you reacted to her I feel good at 10 years old?? And her original Million Miles, 7th Heaven,
She's simply perfect.
AJ turned 16 on January 10th of 22. As for self-confidence, I believe that Angelina knows she is unique, to say the least, but she is so well grounded it has not gone to her head. She understands that one must earn the adoration she is receiving from BILLIONS of fans. An example of this was when she cried, trying to express how much she appreciated all of the fans that flew into Norway from all over the world for the 3 concerts she put on in June/July of this year. I am attaching a link to a video of one of the concerts that has the best sound. She sang 18 songs, and each was out of this world. th-cam.com/video/VkhcpiEqtgg/w-d-xo.html
Another great informative,interesting reaction. Well done. However, here we have more & more of Angelina ( don’t get me wrong, she is superb) & not ONE Amira reaction, after you said “ months ago “ you were going to do more. Remember your comment “IT’S THE VOICE“
“ best voice you’ve ever heard “ Maybe you were just pandering to your viewers. I don’t think that’s the case, but you certainly need to look at the situation.
I love Angelina & I love Amira, & they are both unbelievable talents & are 2 modern day prodigies, but what’s good for one should be good for the other.
Cheers Graeme
Pure talent, AJ is a prodigy .No doubt about it.A totally and complete professional artist. Since so young....God bless her.Thanks for the reaction you always precise and on point
Awesome reaction, God Bless!
Made me think:
you mentioned how AJ is holding on to the character at the end of a song now, instead of the instant dropping of the delicate mood at the end of a song...
the old way was like being awaken from a hypnotic trance by the snap of a finger... just so sudden
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
She can belt when she wants. So if she doesn't its because she doesn't want to.
People will always have their favorite singers and they will never give them up or say someone else sang the song better. They will say they did a good job, or they did it different. But truth of it all is some singers in history have been better than most. Angelina Jordan is one of those singers she has it all and I pray 🙏 she never looses it or interference from outside people. She is great the way she is. God bless
You might like to remove the dating video from the Angelina playlist.
Yes please remove this dating vid from your AJ playlist... nothing to do with her!
Hi! I hit Report and had it deleted on the criteria that it could be pornography.
@@alberttenfoot It is from a content creator I have seen before. What I have seen is a dating advice channel that just gives bad advice. Simply should not be in AJ’s playlist. (Whatever it takes to get it removed!)
I’m confused…I didn’t put anything in her playlist. I wish you had waited to report it so I could see what you’re all talking about. There were an incident a while ago when I suspected I had been hacked. False reporting on videos is a serious thing. If you find anything suspicious on my channel in the future please send me an email. It’s much easier to reach me there than here in the din with hundreds of other comments. But thanks for drawing my attention to it.
Thank you for your input & your honest reaction to (15) Angie. Here's some links of Angie''s & a new singer
Nice to have you back. You've missed a lot. Here's some of the links you missed from her & Laura Bretan.

Magical storyteller ❣️
It's very nice to see you again reacting to Angelina thank you..:Not sure if you seen this outdoor videos she sings house of the rising sun/killing me softlyth-cam.com/video/FFyKzY3GzLs/w-d-xo.html
not many singers can duplicate this young ladys emotional and versatility
Authenticity can’t be duplicated
Please react to the song above the water by Angelina Jordan with TRXD
I enjoyed your reaction and analysis , I think AJ is one of the world's greatest young talents .
You shall be forgiven! ;) just kidding, I don´t remember you criticizing her. She can instantly and easily switch from innocent girl to professional artist.. this is something I see in many young geniuses.. they are nothing nervous, not even on a huge stage, when they do what they love and are able to switch into their comfort zone. But when they need to talk or interact to people in another way, many feel awkward or get shy. For example Aurora is afraid of people and got anxiety attacks before the performances, also she doesn´t like to hug strangers (but she is not shy). Angelina feels a little awkward yet in interviews. Master violists are stuttering words to the audience before a performance, only to make a perfect performance thereafter. I enjoy your reactions, because you focus on postures, body language, details that others miss, and this makes it interesting and different. Thank you for this!
Excellent reaction and observations! Great to have you back with Angelina. I was actually thinking about you and what happened to your Angelina reactions as recently as yesterday. It's been a hot minute since the last one 🙂 And I have been with you since the very first reaction to her and I know what you refer to in regards to the comments you've received. I also vividly remember your responses to those comments😉 Keep being real, honest and yourself, my friend. I always respect that in a person. Much love from Norway ♥♥♥♥♥
Great reaction Brandon, not sure where the 'aggressive" comments came from but you are a different reactor than most so not sure what you mean. We Angels love all reactors who are sincere and honest with this young lady. Not to many reactors ever notice what all the emotional movements she brings to a performance whether it be hand, shoulders or whatever, she is totally inhabiting what ever she sings and it comes from her heart and soul....not just her superior vocals, there is so so much more to her. Thanks for recognizing that and you have a new Sub. Here for Angelina. Cheers, stay well. Brandon. For stage presence I would suggest any of her Live concerts from Norway this summer. Here is a link to several from Big Angie Fan Chris Walker who attended Kongsberg concert and was center stage. Great recordings, all of them, check out his Angelina videos from Norway. th-cam.com/channels/SWmvV4K9GmaAVdPHcuEfug.htmlvideos
I recommend seeing her opening a show with Mount Everest, a lot of beautiful Ah-sounds and she sings “I don’t need nobody” while keeping a cosy stage presence. A fan captured it in great quality and it’s on Rustys channel: th-cam.com/video/DYVxnY06BWw/w-d-xo.html
My recommendation is to watch her opening number of her recent concert. It's called Mount Everest. Talk about stage presence and you can again witness her growth and her cover of that song is skilfully rewritten, similarly to how she totally turned Bohemian Rhapsody around. That's something I noticed after having watched the original artist of that song. She's the complete package as far as music goes.
Here is a link: th-cam.com/video/DYVxnY06BWw/w-d-xo.html
YOUR RIGHT...
Very interesting comments. Much fun to watch and listen.
In the studio (black and white) version of "I put a spell on you" there's a point where Angelina goes up on her toes and right around that point, she also does the left arm limp and allows it to just swing. Simply perfect.
You should watch my reaction to that...It was a long time ago. I wonder if I noticed that :p
@@tnae I will watch it now. I did subscribe to your channel. You bring a unique perspective to the Angelina reaction scene.
Also, watch Angelina really dig into the note full body in ‘Feeling Good’: th-cam.com/video/p8kAL-sGJx8/w-d-xo.html. She will lift you up high, crush you completely, and then set you down gently.
I’m sure I’ve watched reaction to I put a spell 200+ times. Very few notice/comment on her lifting up on her toes and it’s so evident out in the open versus in the booth. She IS the song.
@@johnroache32 that's true - few seem to pick up on it.. I love it !
Always enjoy your reactions
nothing wrong with keeping it real
I feel like I learned something new about AJ whenever I watch one of your reactions
I'm really glad to hear that. That's kind of my main goal for these videos. I appreciate it :)
Angelina’s voice and her total being is like an ocean wave or soft summer breeze that takes you in and rushes you to places you have rarely experienced. Your heart rate increases, you find it difficult to catch your breath, chills and shells engulf you. You are now addicted to Angelina Jordan the finest story telling vocalist I have ever experienced.
Some said Belting she’s belting Samuel said she couldn’t be out but she’s belting
Yup
Wonderful reaction, - thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it
Rob Christie Playing Piano:
That dude playing the piano is Rob Christie Republic Records Studio Director at Universal Music Group Manhattan Beach, California, and he has been working with AJ since she signed with the largest record company in the world at the age of 14, two 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.
Even being late.....that was a pretty good reaction. :-)
Thanks
Thanks for watching!
By the way: as a performance coach it would be interesting to see your reaction to her recent live performances, such as this one of her own (wonderful) song Million Miles: th-cam.com/video/clH0PC4PEPQ/w-d-xo.html
On it.
@@tnae Oh my... about her grandpa passing away as you probably know ❤️ I was there at this concert and I cried... and you will probably know why after you seen that video ❤️
👍
I read in an interview that she said she felt a connection to this song as soon as she heard it. That would explain how she was able to post a TikTok video of this only 6 hours after Adele released it, and posted this video just 11 days later. My thoughts were that she is singing about her own childhood as she was growing up, and Adele was singing to her son about her divorce. It fits both scenarios, but I feel Angelina's version is sung with more feeling and emotion.
I felt the same the family including her sister gave ip good jobs and life in Norway in order to get Angelina to where she needs to be. I have often felt it must be hard.
@@anitaherbert1037, Exactly. I'm sure Angelina was grateful for the sacrifices that were made for her, but I would also not be afraid to bet that it weighed on her heavily also. I'm sure that with all those sacrifices that were made, Angelina felt unspoken expectations also. It would be a lot for a child to handle, even an exceptional child like her.
@@musicluvr70 ...as she expressed it in 7th Heaven...
@@itschmitt, True!
Gary I can't seem to find the Tic Tok of AJ performing Easy On ME, I do know that Easy On Me by AJ, the one on this reaction was released by Republic Records the day after Adele released it. Both Adele, and AJ are under contract to Republic Records.
I always enjoy your comments highlighting the way she sings and the way she caries herself and all the little details that go with that. So keep it coming, ignore people not liking it: they should just go and listen to someone else. I just tend to ignore the haters and trolls. She can indeed move into and out of performance mode in the blink of an eye. I understand what you see that it can leave the audience hanging in the performance. She is highly critical of herself and keeps pushing and pushing herself to get better.
If people listen to it, they sometimes feel it is very similar to Adele, but if you play them back to back, the differences are immense as you noticed right of the bat. Adele makes wonderful personal songs and is an amazing artist. Angelina said she is one of her inspirations and when she covers Adele's songs it is always something extra special. Angelina can probably really relate to the part of I was still a child, didn't get the chance to feel the world around me. I had no time to choose, what I chose to do.'
Thanks and keep it going! :-)
Yeah, I didn't see many similarities between this and Adele's version at all. That's interesting that people see that.
