She wrote the arrangement. The band called her “the boss” and I don’t blame them. She was just born to do this.
Gentlemen, she arranged the whole thing and then gave it to the studio boss, kindly saying "Sir, this are my wishes." The wishes of THE National Treasure are an Order😁.

Angelina is 9 when this was filmed. She did the arrangement, you see her making last minute changes at the beginning. Yes, this was based on 'Screamin' Jay's original.
You want newer? She put out an EP of originals last year, "Love Don't Let Me Go" and "Now ,I'm the Fool" are a couple from that.
2 days after her ninth birthday🤯

@@chriso6719 I stand corrected. I had heard 'days' but I don't recall where. Not that it makes any difference to this impressive performance.
Angelina was 9 years old in this performance - Her nationality is Norwegian but is fluent in English even at this age - This song was not arranged for her - she wrote the vocal arrangement based on listening to the original Screamin' Jay Hawkins version and communicated to the band how she wanted it to be played - in fact, at the beginning of the video you see Angelina writing down some last-minute changes and it is read by the bandleader. You also notice that her own handwritten notes are on the music stand in front of her as she sings. For more insight into how Angelina works, here is a rehearsal video with some of the same band members at the same age (9 yrs old) - You will see that she is aware of what each musician is doing and communicates to them what she wants to do. The first thing she says is that she wants to start, followed by her saying she wants to start over, later she tells the pianist that the key is too low and that she wants to raise it a half-tone, then at the end of the song she changes the ending on the fly. The spoken language is Norwegian: th-cam.com/video/80f3t3dmBbk/w-d-xo.html
She's a 'vocal chameleon' who is able to adjust her vocals to capture any form of singing she desires.
This orchestra referred to her as 'The Boss', for she was in total control from start to finish, and at 9
years old, that alone is insane. Add to it her actual performance, that paid respect to the rendition by
Screamin' Jay Hawkins', which brought her own style of how to present the song to the fore, and you
quickly realize she has no limitations vocally.
Another spell was cast by 9yo Angelina.
Let’s analyze the video:
1st you see how small and cute she is.
2nd you see she is barefoot (story below)
3rd You see her making her “Wish List” of suggested changes to the song.
4th the band leader taking note of the changes.
5th Angelina is holding a candle with “Screemin’ Jay Hawkin’s (original artist 1956) picture on it.
6th the old soul in her voice.
She is the youngest published author in Norway. Angelina wrote and her Grandmother illustrated a book about why she sings barefoot. She was on a trip to Iran where her grandmother is from and met a street girl weighing people for money. Angelina sat and talked with the girl. Angelina asked the girl what she wanted to be when she grew up and the girl replied, a doctor but that it could never happen. Angelina told her to never give up hope. The girl complimented Angelina on her shoes and Angelina noticed her scarred bare feet so she gave them to her, and the little girl told Angelina she would pray for her every day. Angelina sings barefoot to this day to remind herself (and the world) that there are still children in need. All book proceeds go to charity.
Angelina did two shows in Las Vegas on February 29, 2024 and the highest quality videos are on the channels, James Thiel and BigAngieFan.
She has said she has written more than 100 songs and we have heard 14 of them 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 ..... only performed at her 2 shows in Las Vegas 2/29/24
"Bad Valentine" age 18 worked with Toby Gad
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.
There is a very short documentary ANGELINA JORDAN 10 YEARS IN THE MAKING. that shows Angelina singing with a mike as an 18 months old baby, but also her Vegas shows this Spring. Angelina snapped up a venue cancellation at the place Elvis did his residency. Despite the short notice fans flew in from all over the world to sell out both the morning and evening show. Over these two shows she sang approx 40 songs. She is a powerhouse. She keeps getting better.
9yo!!! /and 2 months/)))
Thank you. She is a young legend. 9 years old????!! 😊😊 Try the laytest from AJ "Bad Valentin" it's epic!
Angelina's shock and awe performance as a 9yr old never fails lol and yes she did the vocal arrangement, the notes written on the paper were her wishes for last minute changes. I have two recent performances for you that help to show some of the contrast in her musical ability. First is "Angelina Jordan (17) - KORK - Unchained Melody - Nobel Peace Prize - Narges Mohammadi tribute, NRK1" a truly beautiful, appropriately sensitive and restrained live performance. Next is "Angelina Jordan (18) BAD VALENTINE Toby Gad LIVE Hotel Cafe JESSE & FRIENDS May 16, 2024" a powerful original co-written and performed with multi grammy award winner Toby Gad.
Thanks for the great reaction!
A great couple of recent songs to show her agility in moving across genres and contrasting styles. Aj can do what she wants with her voice! ❤❤❤
Great reaction guys. Her newest is “Bad Valentine” performed in a hotel cafe so shoes are compulsory! You will be blown away!
It's not a hotel, nor a cafe. So no food, no coffee, no rooms.
@103mrg what are you saying, she is now comprised?
@103mrg it's has food and drink. strictly why AJ had to keep her shoes on. 0 =)
@@I_scribbles What part of "NO FOOD" don't you understand?
@@103mrg lol use Google search you dim wit and look up their menu, their tostada sounds good 👍 lol
Thank you guys great reaction yes the hype was real she is something else , and yes it was her arrangement after discovering Screaming J on you tube, at the beginning of the video you see her giving her last minute wishes to the band leader , they affectionately called her the Boss , the greatest performance ever by a 9 year old at this age she finds ways to adapt her voice how she wants it , even younger than this it is like she is already the master but has to wait for her body to catch up many many comments saying Old Soul and re-incarnation. she is a musical savant , everything AJ is amazing at any age, she was called the jazz queen at 7yrs old , the barefoot angel, the girl with a thousand voices , if you want to hear singers listen to anyone, if you want to feel it listen to AJ it is a heart to heart experience.💜👣🤯
Those are not the lyrics. Those were the notes she made for the arrangement. She arranged this version. And the musicians who worked under her called her boss she grew up, listening to her grandmother’s jazz records, Billie Holiday from age 3 years old on a daily basis.she sang Billie Holiday stormy weather when she was seven years old for the audition for Norway got talent. You should check it out!
AJ arranged this version of this song. At the beginning, she gives the producer her "wishes".
Nice reaction, guys. Angelina's biggest influence was Billy Holiday, and she's been listening to jazz on youtube since she was three years old. She's been quoted as saying that her mom tried to get her to sing children's songs, and she would have none of that. For the most part, Angelina is self-taught. Although she did take classes on music theory so she could reconstruct her music. Within the last year, Angelina has released an EP "Old Enough", sang "Unchained Melody " at the Nobel Peace Prize, did a remarkable cover of "If I Were a Boy" and sang an unreleased new song "Bad Valentine" at a Jazz Cafe. All of the above are available on youtube.
the amazing thing is that she arranged it herself, the band affectionately calls her "The Boss" at the age of 3 she started studying jazz, it was shown to her by her grandmother she once said if Billie Holiday hadn't existed she wouldn't be here today
Angelina began her career at 7 singing classic jazz songs on Norway's Got Talent (which she won). I'm 72 years old and she was singing music from my father's generation and giving them her own special touch. Her entire vocal development is available on TH-cam (over 200 videos) and it is a master class in vocal development. She is a unique and amazing talent. She is n absolute artist who has always had complete control over what she sings. She is one of a kind. 😎

Angelina a nine year old Norwegian girl, who happens to be a musical prodigy. She has God given talent that is how she does this! Takes Screaming Jay Hawkins 1956 classic and rearranges it into this masterpiece. Notice the last minute changes she handed to the individual. This is Angelina in beast mode, she only performed this song this way for the studio performance to protect her vocal instrument! She has been doing this since she was seven years old! Amazing control. Affectionately known as the “Boss” by her band! See her in studio at seven years old th-cam.com/video/RjQZKBpVaes/w-d-xo.html 🇳🇴🇺🇸 She is now 18 years old! Angelina is known for only doing one take possibly two to complete a song, this is pure Angelina! When she was 11 she opened for Norah Jones at her South Korea concert singing I Put A Spell On You!

Excellent that you know about Screaming Jay Hawkins 👍 Being flabbergasted is the standard reaction: her voice and her looks are so totally different 😂
If you want to see her most recent work, check 'If I were a boy' as a cover or 'Bad Valentine' as an original. She did both with Toby Gad who co-wrote songs such as 'If I were a boy' with BC Jean for Rihanna and 'All of me' with John Legend.

With well over 250 Angelina videos to pick from, you’ll have no trouble finding content for your channel. I have watched every one and most of them hundreds of times over five years.
She was breaking untouched territory back then and is doing the same at 18 today, this will be more understood if you listen to the song she wrote with the legend Toby Gad recently, Bad Valentine. This girl knows no talent barriers.
Masterpeace from Angelina forever 👍👍🩵👣💙❤️☮️
Angelina's notes, in the video, was her notes on the band sounds and how the band would support her version of the song. Angelina is a music prodigy not only writing music but also producing.
For future reaction, I would recommend first her latest pre-release of a new single with Toby Gad, Grammy award-winning composer and producer. It is called Bad Valentine and was performed just in the past few weeks. One of my favorite covers a couple of years ago is Suspicious Minds in the studio. And finally, several months ago, Unchained Melody at the Nobel Peace Prize in Oslo. After one or more of those, I would go back to the very beginning, Norway's Got Talent when she was introduced to the world.
If one was a blind person listening to this you would think this was a 45 year old woman who has been drinking, smoking and living a pretty rough life for 30 years. By the way, her musicians call her the boss...she basically runs things. And yes, she wrote that particular arrangement.
English is not Angelina's first language. She is from Oslo Norway she writes and picks what she wants to sing. Angelina lives in LA now signed with Republic Records at the age 14 in 2020
Bienvenue dans le monde d'Angelina que nous aimons tant. J'espère que vous prendrez le temps de découvrir toute son histoire. Alain, from 🇫🇷
Angelina Jordan the genius and prodigy
Great Reaction👍👍The newest one is "Bad Velantine" an original by Angelina Jordan & Toby Gad. Jeams Thiel had the Permison to bring it out. So react to this great performe s. You will like it. 🍀Greatings from Frankfurt to You great Reaktors. 🍀👍☮️☮️💙👣🩵
The Amazing Angelina Jordan !
Nice that you decided to come back to Angelina. Great reaction 😊
Angelina was barely 9 years old here, at 9 years 2 months 😅
Incredible, right?? Love from Norway 🇳🇴❤🇳🇴❤🇳🇴❤
You guys saw her at 9 here, about 9 years ago, singing in Norway, her native country, where most young also learn English. At this point, she had already won 'Norway's Got Talent' on their TV and impressed everyone, including top political figures who decided to support her with assets like bands and venues. Though a very young child when she began 'giving performances', unlike most, she has continued her interest in music, even 'doubling down' by declaring determination to become a 'world entertainer'. She has an exceptionally mature voice, far beyond her years and began learning early Jazz from the 50s and 60s such as Billie Holliday, even as a virtual infant. At this time, she is a signed artist at Republic Records and lives in Los Angeles with her family. There are a lot of video performances you can react to here ....consistently amazing, not just 'good', over the course of her development.

This arrangement was all Angelina .she arranges all her performances, besides her out of this world vocals. Angelina is the complete package om her own level by her self..
The professional session musicians she's with here called HER " The Boss" out of TOTAL respect for her incredible musical 🎼 vocals AND input on this arrangement, great reaction guys
She was only 9 years old when she performed this song. It is her tribute to Screamin' Jay Hawkins, an American singer/songwriter. He wrote and performed it in 1956 and Angelina based her performance on the original, although she did make some subtle alterations to both lyrics and melody. As you continue your journey of discovering Angelina, you will come to realise that she does her own arrangements of most of the cover songs she sings. The differences may not be immediately discernible on first listening to them, but they are there. There may be a subtle change in tempo or tone, or more inflexion on some words, or a phrase may differ in pitch from the original. The amount of control that Angelina has over her voice cannot be measured. She never hurries a song. She sings in such a way that the emotions in the lyrics are felt by the listener. In this video did you notice:Angelina finishing some notes and handing them to the pianist, who smiled as he read them? They were her wishes (instructions) to the band how she wished therm to play the music. In the band, she was called a boss.
Thanks for the wonderful and amazed reaction, guys. This song is one of the important steps to understand the singularity of Angelina's talent and also a great musical masterpiece. It's unreal like her, from a very young person, she choice to use her incredible passion and understanding for music in a splendid way, especially with these legendary songs. She is definitely the only 9-year-old girl who understands and has the courage and the ability to sing this song from Screaming' Jay, so imbued with his power, and reorganize it according to her musical sensibility and vision. I sincerely believe that this it's the most beautiful version of this song, over 60 years since it was written and there are much of versions of it, also interpreted by great singers. 💛🧡❤
Everything Angelina does is high quality.
Angelina is at least 6'1" so she has a naturally deep voice allowing her an incredible range most female artists can't manage. Angelina has trained herself watching the greats of the golden age of JAZZ and today's contemporary JAZZ artists, Angelina makes all her own arrangements as you saw in the video, and has since the age of 6. Check out her version of Michael Jackson's, BILLIE JEAN, it's amazing Michael would have loved it!
Hey guys, you asked to see something more recent so I highly suggest you react to her latest song "Bad Valentine". FYI she signed with Republic Records UMG at age 15 but only under certain conditions from her parents. The most important condition was that the label would not market or push her into the limelight until she turned 18 & finished high school. Now that AJ is 18 she's working to release her debut album with this label. Her producer & fellow song co-writer is none other than multi Grammy Award winning producer/songwriter Toby Gad.
During a small showcase in LA Toby & AJ performed Bad Valentine which will be released as a single in a couple of months. The performance can be found on James Thiel's YT channel (he's a sound engineer & friend of Toby who has permission to post his recording of this preview performance).✌️
Actually, she was 14 when she signed with them.
Great news! She has over 200 videos on TH-cam, nearly all excellent (or better)! She's called "the girl with 1000 voices" for a reason. Here's two of her originals and three of her recent live performances for a sample:
at 16:
In her birthplace country of Norway "Mount Everest": th-cam.com/video/DYVxnY06BWw/w-d-xo.html

Here's a "sneak peak" but now authorized live performance of an original song not yet released in final form. (Trivia fact: she is singing it at the venue at which Adele was discovered.)
"Bad Valentine": th-cam.com/video/yTjzhPSVguc/w-d-xo.html
Her current piece is a collaboration with Toby Gad He is putting together a record of new songs with her. But to set it up he plays piano and she sings " If I were a boy" Which he co-wrote. Toby Gad is a Grammy award winner. which you probably know (I didn't) for songs such as this and Others.
Great reaction guys
The video was recorded about March 2015 when she was 9 years 2 months but wasn’t posted until September 2016. Just an FYI, you can’t always go be the posting date in Angelina’s early videos to determine her age.
And also if a video say 5 years ago, it could actually be as much as 5 years and 364 days ago.
That’s our girl we’re all so Proud of her , she can sing any genre and rearranging any music composition.Shes a very special girl our Angelina.She was already a master at her Artistry by the age of 10
The original recording by Screaming Jay was shorter, but at least later in his career, he extended it. Here's a version that contains most of the elements Angelina adopted: th-cam.com/video/orNpH6iyokI/w-d-xo.html
A great way to see the versatility of Angelina in the present is to watch her recent Las Vegas debut concerts. Here us a playlist of great videos of these:
th-cam.com/play/PLlNOkArlAUPgTkrS2eNqvLO3owC-kmHz7.html&si=OjWkWEiko8iPtCR9
She has recently teamed up with songwriter/ producer Toby Gad, with new music coming this fall.
Check out her cover of If I Were a Boy on her official YT channel.
Her EP Old Enough is fire!!❤
Fabulous reaction my friends. This is Angelina at 9 years old as you can witness. She was so so mature and can deliver an iconic song with such soulful vocals. It's uncanny. I think what most people find amazing is that the visual does not match the audioOn this video you see a little child, but the voice is so so professional. This is the video that's set most vocal coaches ablaze with their comments and couldn't believe that a little child like this can produce and mimic such tremendous sounds. As Angelina did in this video. She actually arranged this video with the studio musicians and gave her own take on what she wanted it to sound like. This is how good she was at that age. If you want to hear Angelina now, I would suggest maybe two or three songs that she's just recently released. Just to give you an idea how great she sounds now. She is collaborating with Toby Gad the great songwriter producer in. It was his single that Beyonce recorded years ago called " If I were a Boy " and I would suggest you do the one that she did in the church Cathedral with Toby and Angela ; piano cello accompaniment because it's so so heartwarming and so wonderful to hear her mature voice. I would also suggest her other collaboration with Toby. Her new single coming out is called "Bad Valentine" and it's totally off the charts. If you want to hear a tremendous song by Angelina and an iconic song called "Unchained Melody" please listen to her at the Nobel Peace prize event in Oslo, Norway last December because it's an unbelievable version of this song and I'm sure will set you on the journey that we all have been on for the last 5 or 6 years with our beautiful barefoot princess. Keep posting my friends. You guys are so important to promoting and helping this young beautiful talent reach global success. Much thanks and love from Canada 👍🇨🇦❤️
Thank you guys for great reaction and support Angelina. ❤
Next - "Unchained Melody" (an ironic choice) @ the Nobel Peace Prize Awards with a full symphony orchestra,just before she turned 18 ! Her voice,her beauty,the musicians,the occasion,the story of the imprisoned recipient (her daughters were there to accept the award) just breathtaking !!!
❤❤❤Love Angelina❤❤❤
Angelina has been doing her own vocal arrangements since she was a little girl.
She had basic music and vocal lessons in her school music program however as far as we know she hasn’t had a personal vocal coach or teacher.
She began studying the jazz greats on TH-cam videos by the time she was 3 after her jazz fan grandmother introduced her to the music.
A musical prodigy with an amazing voice and vocal artistry that goes unmatched. Period. I look forward to more AJ reactions. Her newest release performed with Toby Gad (original co-writer) Piano diaries "If I were a boy" is a must-see and hear! Also, an original soon to be released "Bad Valentine" just may be her best yet. You must continue your journey down the Angel-ina rabbit hole. It runs deep, and you will never be disappointed. Thank you for sharing your reactions.
For something new, how about her original song she co-wrote with Grammy winning songwriter/producer, Toby Gad, that they performed live at a small venue in LA. The song is not even officially released yet, but they gave superfan James Thiel permission to post this performance from a couple of months ago. It's called Bad Valentine & it's a real "Banger." th-cam.com/video/yTjzhPSVguc/w-d-xo.html
👍👍👍
Yes please! 18 year old Angelina singing Bad Valentine in a small venue is incredible! What a song and it showcases her vocals so well!
Think Bad Valentine catapults her career...
You've been Angelified by our little Barefoot Princess
My favorite part of the whole performance is when she does the Call Back to the Band. Amazing.
This is the greatest Musical Masterpiece on how to interpret a song.
The greatest performance by a 9 years old EVER.
She does her own arrangements. The note was her wishes for changes in the arrangement. That is why the Director smiled.

She’s absolutely so amazing! Stunning!👌🔥🔥🔥🔥❤️

My bad valentine ,PLEASE ?
Everything AJ does is high quality. You will need a month's worth of reactions to just catch up. Too many songs for me to suggest one, Stay, Suspicious Minds, Billy Jean, Million Miles, and if I were a Boy are just a drop in the ocean of her incredible talent
For a good overview of where Angelina is now in her career, you should watch and react to the 16 min Documentary: Angelina Jordan, 10 Years in the Making which briefly covers her beginnings but mostly spotlights her first Las Vegas headline concert on Feb 29, 2024 - Angelina does the narration: th-cam.com/video/I_59PZXkusc/w-d-xo.html
Great reaction guys, you need to check out bad VALENTINE that's her most current song. Look forward to more reactions of Angelina. 👍👍👍
Yes, she made the choices for the arrangement. This is one of Angelina's skills. She select the songs herself and the vocal arrangements as well.
*YOUR REACTION WAS PRICELESS, & MADE ME FEEL THE SAME WAY I DID THE 1ST TIME I HEARD THIS* I am so jealous, that you are just discovering the wonder, that is Angelina Jordan!!! You are truly in for the ride of your life 😊 I am often at a loss for words, when trying to describe Angelina Jordan's voice, or what genre she fits in, & I have accepted, she does not fit in any category, or genre, & is simply in league all of her own.....❤ 💚 💜 Every time I hear Angelina sing, I picture her stepping out of an old black & white movie, to transport us back in time, so we can fall in love with these genuine masterpieces again! Really enjoyed your raw, informative & emotional reaction** ❤ 💚 💜 ***ANGELINA JORDAN IS TRULY A UNIQUE MASTERPEICE*** ❤ 💚 💜 Really enjoyed your reactions !!!
Her and Toby Gad just produced but not released yet a song called Bad Valentine. This is her latest song. Nice reaction to I put a spell on you
Not bad for a 9 year old. Take a fifties song by Screaming Jay Hawkins, arrange the music and then sing like a 40 year old jazz singer. This girl is a gift to us all. Welcome to Angelina's world. If you want something recent try "If I Were A Boy (Piano Diaries)" - you won't be disappointed
Gents, here is a video of her singing "If I were a boy" with Toby Gad, the co-composer of said song in St. James church.: th-cam.com/video/2z6MNi2Vr7E/w-d-xo.html
the girl with 1000 voices....I said it years ago and still rings true
The way both the music and vocals were done was her choice. There is no other arrangement of this song that is like this one, it is Angelina's creation, at 9 years and 2 months old.The writing she is doing at the start of the video are what she called "her wishes" (known to the rest of us as instructions). The band members here affectionately called Angelina, "the boss."
Great reaction. Yes Angelina wrote the notes to the musical director - changes to the musical arrangement. You might have noticed that she was holding a pen and reading notes on the music stand. She would often make running changes, crossing out some things and adding new ideas, a true musical artist.
She wanted to highlight the classical elements of the song, for example, the call response from the old gospel style, the origins of the blues. Angelina has no fear, she will take on anything and deliver a truly emotional and passionate rendition...
Before you've even pressed "play" in this reaction, I feel compelled to come to the comments and warn you: be careful about reading too much into "stylistic" differences you hear between her performances at different ages. It's tempting once you've heard 2 or 3 things from her to draw conclusions of the form: "When she was younger, she , but when she got older, she ". The more of her stuff you hear, the more it will become clear that she has always "mixed it up" quite a bit, and sung very different songs in very different ways at basically every age (but especially since she was 10). One generalization that does tend to hold up is that she covered more "classics" (i.e., pre-'60s jazz and pop) when she was younger and has chosen more recent songs and genres as she has gotten older. (And her originals have more or less "tracked" with that overall trend, as well.) And, of course, the sound of her voice, per se, has matured greatly over the years, with four "eras" being relatively easy to identify just "by ear": before 8, 8 to around 10½, 10½ to around 16, and 16 to the present. Other people might choose slightly different division points, but there's no denying that somehwere around those ages her voice matured in very noticeable ways.
Thanks so much for the reaction to our angel Angelina..she is simply the best…👍👏
Hey Guys,
Been following Angelina for over 5 yrs now and I never tire
of her amazing talent!
If I were you , I would listen to
her latest song, along with Tony Gad, whom she is now working with. Song called “ Bad Valentine” live. Amazing
To say the least!!
She’s got tons of vids that will
leave you better than before.
To me, best of this generation!
Enjoy her artistry…
Thanks, Tom…
"Highly recommend Suspicious Minds" (recent). I'm 79 so know this song well and frankly never liked it. it is a testament of how she can change the tempo and give the feeling/meaning of the lyrics the original song never had. I love her version! th-cam.com/video/RTbKhkceR00/w-d-xo.html
As other Angels have pointed out. The latest is Bad Valentine and If I Were A Boy. Other outstanding recent performances are Nobel Peace Prize Unchained Melody and her EP Old Enough. But since she has been singing for more than 11 years with over 200 songs, you have much to explore and catch up. ❤❤❤❤👣
She is known as the little boss, she writes and creates every thing.
She is fascinating. To be so young and put such profound feeling into her music is magical indeed.
Thank you, gentlemen!❤
Her version "Fly Me To The Moon" on the show The View from 2014 is fantastic!
9 years old her own arrangement
❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉Aj🎉😊love you
One of the best performances on TH-cam ever awesome by our barefoot princess over 200 covers and originals wild bill angel 😇 since 2016 enjoy your journey
It's 7/23/24 and this is STILL the greatest thing I've ever seen. 🤯
You may well find that Angelina's fans are the best you'll find. Comments beyond the norm. and loyal to a fault. So much info will hit your thread. Enjoy Angelina; your channel will grow!
Nina Simone is the artist that made the jazz version of this song famous in the 50’s so it would be better to go back and look at hers rather than Screaming Jay. Angelina puts her own unique spin on it for sure with Ella Fitzgerald/ Billy Holiday vibes.. her manipulation of her false cords to produce vocal fry is rarely seen in children as their larynx hasn’t fully developed and without training they can very easily cause damage to them. That in itself is an enigma!
We believe that we are witnessing a once in a generation talent that has been blessed by the hand of God and by doing so has blessed all those who hear her.
Peace and Calm Seas
✌️🛥
This is the newest, and it's approved by Tony and Angelina for release.. Super High Quality live recording. (Officially release in the near future). th-cam.com/video/yTjzhPSVguc/w-d-xo.html - Bad Valentine
Listen to Bad Valentine it is Awesome!! ❤
esp "jazzy version"
She is the Boss, she writes and arranged her songs❤
Listen to her 2 if I were a boy
Angelina had her jazz voice nailed at the age of 7 when she competed and WON Norway's Got Talent. Be blown out of your socks and react to all of her performances in Norway's Got Talent!
I'm totally wowed by her more recent cover of Elvis Presley's Suspicious Minds also ... it craps all over the original in my opinion!
Great reaction guys. You asked for suggestions on Angelina’s recent performances. Her most recent original, which will be officially released in a month or so, is “Bad Valentine”. It is a great example of her current capabilities. Here is a link: th-cam.com/video/yTjzhPSVguc/w-d-xo.htmlsi=mj-mb_RI7ALbSBUx
Love Angelina Jordan!!! 💗💗💗She's unbelievable..... Thanks. ✌️
Angelina is one of those incredible people that turn up once in a hundred years or so. She is absolutely amazing, This song blew me away when I saw it, but I also love her rendition of Feelin Good and her own original song 7th Heaven but truth be told she has many great songs all written by her as well as her incredible covers.
I'm late to the show, as usual, but now a new subscriber. Welcome to new and amazing times with Angelina, a most extraordinary person, beautiful to her very core in every way possible. I am positive you will enjoy the ride. I envy your not knowing. All of us want to do this all over again...she is that magical.
Awesome Reaction
Continue on the Angelina Jordan rabbit hole
Yes she arranged it herself.. And welcome to the rabbit hole.. Looking forward to more reactions of Angelina. Here is a documentary of her journey:
