This song is astounding! Angelina wrote the music and lyrics, and she was only 11 years old at the time. Rather than a common AABACA lyric scheme, she uses free form that does not constrain her by having to structure lines by rhyme. This gives her free reign to express her feelings any way she wants to. I love how she incorporates elements that you would expect from a girl her age - going to school, sitting at the piano playing beautiful songs, creating paintings like my Grandma, my little sister - while invoking deep emotional images that you might only expect from someone way beyond Angelina’s age - lifting your hand to the sky, a place where bluebirds fly, you and I will shine like a star in the darkest sky, a warm embrace from someone safe, we come, we see, we go. Wow! The melody and chord structure are perfect. The part that gets me is the bridge and it’s changes: Eb - F/Eb - d - g - c - F - Bb (IV - V/IV - iii - vi - ii - V - I). A simple circle of 5ths but, combined with that melody, it’s very powerful. I cry every time I hear it. I love all of Angelina’s cover songs, but I can’t wait to hear more of her original compositions. She has definitely answered the question, “What Is Life”! (A shout out to Dylan Meek on piano and Ivan Mendez on guitar. Your amazing talent makes Angelina shine like the star she is!)
She's very spiritual. 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖pretty obvious she wrote the music for piano in addition to the lyrics. I hope she plays in future because she knows exactly how she wants her song to sound. Lovely song and wow once again. 💜💜💜💖💖💖💜💜💜💜
I have dubbed Angelina as The Barefoot Angel! Because she always performs Barefoot and sings like an Angel. Another young artist who I would like you to see is 10 year old violinist Karolina Protsenko. Karolina is a classically trained violinist and loves to play pop. Karolina's idol is Lindsey Stirling. Karolina has 3 TH-cam channels. She plays by ear. It takes Karolina about an hour to learn a new song. She does all of the arrangements herself. Her TH-cam has 650k subscribers. Millions of fans worldwide. Karolina's videos over all social media has had over 100 million views. Karolina has released 2 albums. Not bad for a 10 year old!
Last summer she sang What is Life at a concert with a Norwegian orchestra Forsvarets Stabsmusikkorps, it sounds fantastic. She has an album out "It's Magic" that covers the entire concert (available Amazon/iTunes the usual places). The whole thing is great. She absolutely kills "Cry Me a River", "Fly Me to the Moon", and "It's a Man's World" among others. Great stuff.
How many 12 year olds even contemplate the question, "what is life?" I was pretty clueless at that age. This is a beautiful song, and Angelina is amazing, as always. Thanks for your reaction.

Это невероятная вкуснятина от Анджелины.
This song is one of my favourites ❤ just because she wrote it. She pours her heart out for all too see. It's just magic the way she effects your soul.
