You are listening to the greatest female vocalist to ever live. Many make comparisons of her to others at first, but after a few more songs they realize she simply is the best ever. She is incomparable. The barefoot Princes of a thousand voices, the Queen of Jazz, a gift to us all. There has never been another with the talents of this young lady. English is her 3rd. language of 4. You will learn much about Angelina by just reading the comments. You will find that Angelina is much more than the best ever voice, she is a storyteller in music as no one before. She has a unique background at a very young age. A superb writer we are finding. Her new EP called, "Old Enough," is all Angelina. In a recent interview she stated she has written around 100 songs. We have much to look forward to. This EP is really a new genre all Angelina's. Remember tears when listening to Angelina is allowed and expected!
you said "there's something new every time"... and "I've only listened to her 4 times".... ...well, I've heard Angelina hundreds of times and she's always new and fresh. Amazing!!!!
This is such a beautiful rendition, and you are right; she can sing anything. Thats why I call her my little jukebox. I don't need to listen to anyone else or other versions of her songs. 😊
I know you've done 4 video's all ready but let me take this opportunity to say to you, "Welcome to the wonderful world of Angelina Jordan!" She has approx 200 songs on You Tube to listen to and I'll tell you, every one of them is distinctly different. Perhaps my favorite Angelina song of all is one she sang when she was 8 years old. I know you'll enjoy it, too. Dinah Washington's, 'What A Difference A Day Makes'. You'll see what I mean, trust me.
You picked a doozey with this one. It's not reacted to enough as far as I'm concerned. This performance is truly a masterpiece and easily arguably the best version of this song ever sung. Thank you.
Great reaction and insight. Here are all the basics! 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 the youngest ever vocalist 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 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 unbelievably is her third language! She is a true prodigy. She is now 17, and has recorded a huge library of songs, including covers and several originals. A major attraction to Angelina's music is the emotion and attitude she conveys, although she has not 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 are changing rapidly as she has now graduated school. She has recently 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. The four other songs have been released as visualizers, but where it is that videos are coming. A world tour is in the works, likely for the fall, accompanying her full album release. Here is a chronological playlist from ages 6 to 17, of Angelina's 200 videos including tiktok and Instagram. The list begins with some originals, her EP, and a few specialty songs. Then it starts chronologically beginning with Gloomy Sunday at age 7 on NGT. th-cam.com/play/PL2v8kgVeo4EbQD6l_WAVjOfItquzW7oEc.html Why does Angelina sing barefoot? The answer may bring a tear to your eye. 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 donated her winnings from Norway's Got Talent to charities. She is a special individual, and one you cannot follow without developing an emotional bond. Angelina captures hearts because she is humble and has compassion for humanity. Her stated goal from childhood was to sing for the world and 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.

You are describing skills and tools that only seasoned performers have, yet she was only 16 here. It's not who can sing the loudest, or who can sing the highest or lowest, to me it's about who can put it all together that pleases not just your ear, but your soul as well. Phenomenal singer and, yes, well-seasoned. Imagine when she's in her 20s and 30s.
You mentioned Etta James, did you know Angelina did a cover of “I’d rather go blind”? She was much younger, the talent just oozes out of her! By the way, did you know she has been arranging the vocals on her covers since she was about 8 years old? She released an EP of six originals in July this year (now aged 17). It’s called “Old Enough”. It’s incredible!
Thank you EB , this is a sublime vocal masterclass by 16 yrs old AJ, IMO this is the greatest version of this song ever, and the song has waited a long time to sound this good yes she elevates everything she touches, she is in her own league no other artist has ever touched me like she does , there have been and are great singers , but there has never been an AJ magical, mesmerising majestic, storytelling at it's best , the greatest personality and character voice across multiple styles and genre's with a beautiful loving heart and she just getting going .How fortunate the world is even if it doesn't know it yet.💗👣
First time I heard this (and every time since), I have been stunned by her vocal virtuosity. Not my favorite song but one of my favorite performances of all time. Enjoyed your review. This song is much older and very many people have performed it over the years, none I've heard reaches this level.
Thanks for your reaction! She is only 17 years old today and from Norway. She signed with the label Republic Records just 14 years old, I think we can safely leave the promotion to Republic Record. Marketing will start when her full album is released later this year. There's only one EP with 6 songs she's released from RR now, and they haven't started marketing until the full album is released!. Republic Records know 100% what they are doing? I think a lot of people don't realize how much Angelina has done in her short life (17). She performed FIFA AWARD song, and performed in front of 40 000 people only 11 years old invited by Norah Jones. She was also specially invited by Quincy Jones to perform on his 85th birthday in the O2 arena / London. And so on goes the list... She has over 250 songs on TH-cam with cover songs and many originals. Angelina also plays piano and guitar. The truth is that within a year or two she will be the artist for the big occasions. and not a "bare belly plastic artist" who tops a list for a week and is forgotten just as quickly. She already eats most female vocalists for breakfast, and the label Republic Records and the rest of the music industry know that too! Angelina Jordan has nothing to prove. When she sometimes belts is it because the fits in the performances. She sings to us only she can do! Angelina recently had a sold-out concert in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, where there was an audience from 9 different country all the way from Australia and from 39 different states in the USA.
This has been a favorite song of mine for 50 years. I have listened to all the "Greats" from the past & a few not so great covers of this song, but none as exquisite as Angelina's 16 yo version. She sang it as a little girl (9 & 10 yo) & it was amazing, but I hoped some day she would sing it again when her voice matured more & this was more than I even hoped for. The only thing that could make this better would be if we could see her sing it. Vocal coaches are astounded how she can go from a breathy vocal to a full belt & pull it back to a whisper, all in one breath with beautiful tone & pitch. This is my favorite vocal performance although I don't care for the video which I find very distracting from the vocals, so I close my eyes for this one. Her recently released EP, "Old Enough" with 6 original songs is amazing. Here is a link to my favorite from the EP, Now I'm the Fool." th-cam.com/video/8BXCVY_-RmU/w-d-xo.html

Angelina has been writing songs since she was 10 years 0ld - So far 11 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, and Diamond. 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.
Bro, she OWNS this song, period! Great reaction, analysis. If I may suggest, have an auto setback of 10seconds, it's really hard with Angelina to interject any comments without interrupting a critical music flow in the music. The setback just puts us all into the leadup of where you felt the need to comment and just clarifies what you were getting at.
Gracias por tu sincera reaccion, AJ es una artista extraordinaria, su narrativa realmente llega al alma y su voz, para mi, es fuera de este mundo. Saludos desde Chile, haaaaa suscrito a su canal
Nice reaction. Amazing performance by 16 year old Angelina, possibly still 15 as this was released about a month after her birthday in 2022. Frank Sinatra is just one of over 600 artists to cover this song. The song was from the 1937 musical Babes in Srms. Frank released his version in 1953 so his version is definitely not the original. Others who have covered this are Ella Fitzgerald, Tony Bennett, Judy Garlad, Chet Baker for whom this was his signature song
@@nfpnone8248 No, haven't heard Ella's version of this (at least to my recollection because I LOVE her voice and music as well) but will definitely be taking a look at that.
Thanks for the reaction my friend. As far as the angels reacting negatively to any of your honest comments, just know the love we have for AJ is really intense but don't change your point of view. Enjoy the journey.
Nice to see you back EB....You are only 200 songs behind on her repertoire of music available unfortunately. Hope you take some time to follow Angelina, we millions of followers and fans would love to see you do more..... Cheers. 🥰🥰
My Funny Valentine This is my 144th time listening to this MASTERPIECE and each time I experience a new level of perfection by our ethereal prodigy extraordinaire, Angelina Jordan. When you listen to the A cappella portions of this performance at the very end of the song you are truly experiencing the genius of Angelina Jordan’s PERFECT PITCH. Sinatra, rest in peace Angelina Jordan, the Bare Foot Queen has taken the crown and there is nothing like her in the universe. When I first heard her perform this. I put it on pause and brought up Sinatra, Bublé, Streisand, Fitzgerald and Vaughan's version of this song to compare it to AJ version, and none of them moved me like this version. It is so hard to comprehend that Angelina from 7 to 16 is the greatest story telling being in my 76 years of experiencing great vocalist and I can't wait for the rest of the story. We are not only hearing it, but we are also feeling each word as though she were singing to each of us individually. She is the only one in this universe that is capable of making us feel the true emotion of this ballad. There is no way to explain this gift that has been given to the universe, does she even know, or understand the power she encompasses?
"Old Blue Eyes" had the best version of this, IMHO. Past tense. Angelina's beautiful eyes are brown. She has taken to wearing blue contacts for some reason and, not just for this song. Not sure why. I really prefer her version above all others. Actually, the only time I have ever heard a better cover of any song she has sung was when she made a newer version.
You'll never hear as sensual a rendition of this song.......ever. You'll notice that her vocals are overdubbed concerning the video, and you should understand that her mom Sara is always concerned as to how she is perceived. By doing this, the viewing listener doesn't equate her with a sultry lounge singer but simply a beautiful teenage girl who is day dreaming as she meanders through an antique furnishings store.
Excellent reaction! You want Michael B?, check out Angelina age 10 singing Feeling Good!!! You want Etta James? Try AJ age 12 singing I’d Rather Go Blind. BUT, do the mash up with Angelina singing that while Chris Stapleton is doing Tennessee Whiskey!!!!
I am beyond happy to see you react to Angelina again. I have always loved your reactions to her, and this was just exceptionally good IMO. Angelina had JUST turned 16 here, or was possibly still 15 at the time of recording. This one sits comfortably in my top 5 performances by her, and I will give you my absolute favorite performance now. She was pretty much EXACTLY the same age as in this one, and the performance was part of her live, digital Christmas concert from Republic Records' studio on December 23rd 2021. As a Thank You to all her fans she performed Lauren Daigle's "You Say", and it is maybe one of the best vocal performances you will ever hear. At least in my opinion. I will try to give you the link here, I just hope it doesn't get removed by the TH-cam bots or something like that : (Here I had added the link, but the comment didn't go through to you, or it ended in your "held for review" section. I don't know. But just search for Angelina and the song and you'll find it right away. You can see her in a most beautiful, white dress.) Before I go I just have to say that it's a real shame that you don't react more to her. And I mean that in the best way possible. I guess her other fans will tell you about her newly released 6 song EP containing exclusively original songs, so I won't. Even though I maybe already did. Anyway, the EP is called "Old Enough". I would REALLY love if you'd consider reacting to that one, because it is mad good. But please consider "You Say" before you do. You won't regret it! Stay safe and take care! Much love from Norway ♥♥♥♥♥

As far as Sinatra, she learned pharsing, which he was the master. From Billie Holiday she learned Emotional power in simplicity. From Elvis and Willie Nelson and Adele, she learned Balled interpretation. From Amy, earthy presentation and grit. From Lana feminine stylization. From, Michael Jackson relating powerful story" which she is proficient. She has gleaned from great performers while holding her own unique indentity. She was self trained from the age of 7 on JAZZ. She back phrases with the best. Angelina is an explosion about to happen. Just ask Rob Christi of Republic Records. Also l might add, this is my favorite version, Chet Baker being second. My friend GREAT reaction! As far as Dean, she did sway at 12 years old.
Look, all you need to know is that only one singer is mentioned by Angelina in being essential to her being the singer she is and that is Billie Holiday. If you took the time to truly listen to Billie's full catalog of music, which Angelina undoubtedly did, you would realize that elements like phrasing, changing key in mid-sentence, 'breathy' 'whisper like' releases and a host of other emotion laden elements, much of with can be found in one rehearsal she did in a sound booth when she sang Billie's 'I'm A fool to Want You' in a way that was much more complex than when she auditioned the song in a'capella when she was 7 on NGT. When Billie was first booked into the jazz clubs of Harlem, her manager said that she was the most improvisational singer he ever experienced. As far as Michael Jackson relating a powerful story, go and listen to 'Strange Fruit' by Billie, and you will understand what relating a powerful story is all about. The only thing she would adopt that Amy did, was the 'stretching' or 'slurring' of words at the end of a lyrical line. All these other artists aren't included in Angelina's interview with Nadia Neophytou, only Billie, and Angelina explains why? Without Billie Holiday, there would be no Angelina Jordan today. Billie Holiday is on an inventive genius level that no other singer accomplished and Angelina's genius allowed her to realize that very early on, for at the end of that interview with Nadia Neophytou, Angelina added, 'I am very blessed that her (Billie's) music found me very early'.
@@ridgemanron Billie was important to Angelina, but so were the others and more l mentioned. Angelina has song more Adele and Elvis, than Billie. As far as Strange Fruit, written by Abel Meeropol, a teacher who gave the song to Billie, that and God Bless the Child are the go to songs for people who are not familiar with her. As far as throwing out Frank Sinatra as an AJ enfluence, remember, he wrote "l'm a Fool to Want You". This song was about Ava Gardner.. Frank Sinatra is a master of phrasing. You want to hear phrasing.th-cam.com/video/sJsXL_qSPKo/w-d-xo.htmlsi=_eh89lBYNjWS9RT2 Wouldn't think you would know her, but I'll bet PHAT money Angie does.
What is it about Angelina stating that, if not for Billie Holiday, there would be no Angelina Jordan? It's something you don't seem to comprehend. And what does Sinatra writing a song have to do with how an artist sings it? Absolutely nothing. He was a 'crooner'who the young girls would go crazy over, but can he put over a song like 'It's Impossible' or 'And I Love You So' like Perry Como? We all know the answer to that. If you took the time to listen to Billie's catalog of songs, you would realize she was the one that all the singers you mention, including Amy, learned from, and more important that it was she who made Angelina the singer she has become. Not my words, but her's. No one is mentioned in the same breath as Billie by Angelina, and that's a fact.
You need to stay in your sand box and play there, for you surely don't have any idea about all the comments you babble about being based in fact when it's clear they aren't.
Well said, good reaction. But please dont cut those runs. She also does runs and a contrasting phrase next. So if you choose to cut mid phrase/run please back it up 5/10 seconds so you can also enjoy the artists intention of pacing and flow. Yes, she could sing gibberish for all i care but theres some beautiful moments in here that were missed 😊
If you're looking for Sinatra covers, she's done My Way, which is kinda funny when you think about the contrast of a young girl singing about the end of her life. And of course Fly me to the Moon, she's done that two dozen times and its kind of her signature song.
Check out,”Above the water.” Also an original song written for Angelina. Completely different genre on steroids. Most purists AJ fans don’t care for it. I love it! In my top ten with as many as 100 other songs by AJ😊
"Anyone can catch your eye... But it takes someone special to catch your heart." - Ms. Angelina " Magical Vocalist" Jordan "We Thank U - Mr. EB"
Man that's beautiful. This vocal lasts forever. Crazy good.
You are listening to the greatest female vocalist to ever live. Many make comparisons of her to others at first, but after a few more songs they realize she simply is the best ever.

you said "there's something new every time"... and "I've only listened to her 4 times"....
...well, I've heard Angelina hundreds of times and she's always new and fresh.
Amazing!!!!
This is such a beautiful rendition, and you are right; she can sing anything. Thats why I call her my little jukebox. I don't need to listen to anyone else or other versions of her songs. 😊
There is a reason why She is called "The Angel of Thousand Voices " 👈💯
Thanks for the reaction to our angel Angelina…she’s simply the best..❤
I know you've done 4 video's all ready but let me take this opportunity to say to you, "Welcome to the wonderful world of Angelina Jordan!"
She has approx 200 songs on You Tube to listen to and I'll tell you, every one of them is distinctly different.
Perhaps my favorite Angelina song of all is one she sang when she was 8 years old. I know you'll enjoy it, too. Dinah Washington's, 'What A Difference A Day Makes'. You'll see what I mean, trust me.
What a marvelous experience listening to this song for the 500th time and this time, with you. You were all there brother angel....
Angelina is a true artist, using every vocal tool perfectly to paint the story of the song. Stunning.
She's one or two steps above ANY singer right now.
AJ's voice, rich creamy delicious butter.
You picked a doozey with this one. It's not reacted to enough as far as I'm concerned. This performance is truly a masterpiece and easily arguably the best version of this song ever sung. Thank you.
" You Make Me Feel So Young " 12yo Angelina The Crooner you will love it..... Its a Duet by Frank Sinatra, and Of course Angelina sings Both parts !!!
She has not blue eyes but beautiful and soulful brown eyes. Excellent reaction.

Why does Angelina sing barefoot? The answer may bring a tear to your eye. 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 captures hearts because she is humble and has compassion for humanity. Her stated goal from childhood was to sing for the world and 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.

My favorite cover by her, I think. Wondering if this is perfection.
It's hard to describe her.🤭
This has been a favorite song of mine for 50 years. I have listened to all the "Greats" from the past & a few not so great covers of this song, but none as exquisite as Angelina's 16 yo version. She sang it as a little girl (9 & 10 yo) & it was amazing, but I hoped some day she would sing it again when her voice matured more & this was more than I even hoped for. The only thing that could make this better would be if we could see her sing it. Vocal coaches are astounded how she can go from a breathy vocal to a full belt & pull it back to a whisper, all in one breath with beautiful tone & pitch. This is my favorite vocal performance although I don't care for the video which I find very distracting from the vocals, so I close my eyes for this one. Her recently released EP, "Old Enough" with 6 original songs is amazing. Here is a link to my favorite from the EP, Now I'm the Fool." th-cam.com/video/8BXCVY_-RmU/w-d-xo.html
thank you . very much . Angelina is Amazing .

Angelina has been writing songs since she was 10 years 0ld - So far 11 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, and Diamond. 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.
There us a mashup of her and Dean signing "Sway". Look hard enough and you can hear her cover Perry Como, "Magic Moments". Nobody covers Como.
Bro, she OWNS this song, period! Great reaction, analysis. If I may suggest, have an auto setback of 10seconds, it's really hard with Angelina to interject any comments without interrupting a critical music flow in the music. The setback just puts us all into the leadup of where you felt the need to comment and just clarifies what you were getting at.
Again, the best rendition ever of a classic track.
Gracias por tu sincera reaccion, AJ es una artista extraordinaria, su narrativa realmente llega al alma y su voz, para mi, es fuera de este mundo. Saludos desde Chile, haaaaa suscrito a su canal
Nice reaction.
Amazing performance by 16 year old Angelina, possibly still 15 as this was released about a month after her birthday in 2022.
Frank Sinatra is just one of over 600 artists to cover this song.
The song was from the 1937 musical Babes in Srms. Frank released his version in 1953 so his version is definitely not the original. Others who have covered this are Ella Fitzgerald, Tony Bennett, Judy Garlad, Chet Baker for whom this was his signature song
AJ is musical Art incarnated !!!
Subscribed for Angelina.
Angelina said this was posted for her fans. I'm 69 years old, and in my opinion, this is the best version I have heard.
Yeah, I'm going to agree with that. Hands down. Her voice breathes a beauty into the song I haven't heard in other renditions.
@@EBReacts
Then you haven’t heard Ella Fitzgerald, who by the way, Angelina went to school on!
I'm 80 and almost agree. Between Ella, Sarah Vaughan and Angelina, you've probably got the top three.
@@nfpnone8248 No, haven't heard Ella's version of this (at least to my recollection because I LOVE her voice and music as well) but will definitely be taking a look at that.
@@EBReactsIt’s certainly on a par with Angelina.
Thanks for the reaction my friend. As far as the angels reacting negatively to any of your honest comments, just know the love we have for AJ is really intense but don't change your point of view. Enjoy the journey.
Nice to see you back EB....You are only 200 songs behind on her repertoire of music available unfortunately. Hope you take some time to follow Angelina, we millions of followers and fans would love to see you do more..... Cheers. 🥰🥰
My Funny Valentine
This is my 144th time listening to this MASTERPIECE and each time I experience a new level of perfection by our ethereal prodigy extraordinaire, Angelina Jordan.
When you listen to the A cappella portions of this performance at the very end of the song you are truly experiencing the genius of Angelina Jordan’s PERFECT PITCH. Sinatra, rest in peace Angelina Jordan, the Bare Foot Queen has taken the crown and there is nothing like her in the universe. When I first heard her perform this. I put it on pause and brought up Sinatra, Bublé, Streisand, Fitzgerald and Vaughan's version of this song to compare it to AJ version, and none of them moved me like this version. It is so hard to comprehend that Angelina from 7 to 16 is the greatest story telling being in my 76 years of experiencing great vocalist and I can't wait for the rest of the story. We are not only hearing it, but we are also feeling each word as though she were singing to each of us individually. She is the only one in this universe that is capable of making us feel the true emotion of this ballad. There is no way to explain this gift that has been given to the universe, does she even know, or understand the power she encompasses?
Ein Genuss 🔥🔥🔥💖💖💖
"Old Blue Eyes" had the best version of this, IMHO. Past tense. Angelina's beautiful eyes are brown. She has taken to wearing blue contacts for some reason and, not just for this song. Not sure why. I really prefer her version above all others. Actually, the only time I have ever heard a better cover of any song she has sung was when she made a newer version.
You'll never hear as sensual a rendition of this song.......ever. You'll notice
that her vocals are overdubbed concerning the video, and you should
understand that her mom Sara is always concerned as to how she is
perceived. By doing this, the viewing listener doesn't equate her with a
sultry lounge singer but simply a beautiful teenage girl who is day dreaming
as she meanders through an antique furnishings store.
😀😀😀😀😀
Loved your reaction and comments. Given the season, I suggest you react to Angelina's version of "Autumn Leaves".
Вы все верно выразили!
She is like the engine note on a Lamborghini changing gears going from idle and up and back to idle at the end with that extended daaayaaaayaaaay!
Musical genius. Thanks. Would love to see you react to her covering Etta James
Excellent reaction! You want Michael B?, check out Angelina age 10 singing Feeling Good!!! You want Etta James? Try AJ age 12 singing I’d Rather Go Blind. BUT, do the mash up with Angelina singing that while Chris Stapleton is doing Tennessee Whiskey!!!!
I am beyond happy to see you react to Angelina again. I have always loved your reactions to her, and this was just exceptionally good IMO. Angelina had JUST turned 16 here, or was possibly still 15 at the time of recording. This one sits comfortably in my top 5 performances by her, and I will give you my absolute favorite performance now. She was pretty much EXACTLY the same age as in this one, and the performance was part of her live, digital Christmas concert from Republic Records' studio on December 23rd 2021. As a Thank You to all her fans she performed Lauren Daigle's "You Say", and it is maybe one of the best vocal performances you will ever hear. At least in my opinion. I will try to give you the link here, I just hope it doesn't get removed by the TH-cam bots or something like that : (Here I had added the link, but the comment didn't go through to you, or it ended in your "held for review" section. I don't know. But just search for Angelina and the song and you'll find it right away. You can see her in a most beautiful, white dress.) Before I go I just have to say that it's a real shame that you don't react more to her. And I mean that in the best way possible. I guess her other fans will tell you about her newly released 6 song EP containing exclusively original songs, so I won't. Even though I maybe already did. Anyway, the EP is called "Old Enough". I would REALLY love if you'd consider reacting to that one, because it is mad good. But please consider "You Say" before you do. You won't regret it!
Stay safe and take care! Much love from Norway ♥♥♥♥♥
Let me see if I can help you out poolhall. My comments have been down so I'm usually not blocked. 🙂.

Every song Angelina sings is Grammy worthy IMHO. When she takes off nothing on heaven or Earth will be able to stop her.
She was built for this
As far as Sinatra, she learned pharsing, which he was the master. From Billie Holiday she learned Emotional power in simplicity. From Elvis and Willie Nelson and Adele, she learned Balled interpretation. From Amy, earthy presentation and grit. From Lana feminine stylization. From, Michael Jackson relating powerful story" which she is proficient. She has gleaned from great performers while holding her own unique indentity. She was self trained from the age of 7 on JAZZ. She back phrases with the best. Angelina is an explosion about to happen. Just ask Rob Christi of Republic Records. Also l might add, this is my favorite version, Chet Baker being second. My friend GREAT reaction! As far as Dean, she did sway at 12 years old.
Look, all you need to know is that only one singer is mentioned by Angelina
in being essential to her being the singer she is and that is Billie Holiday. If
you took the time to truly listen to Billie's full catalog of music, which Angelina
undoubtedly did, you would realize that elements like phrasing, changing key in
mid-sentence, 'breathy' 'whisper like' releases and a host of other emotion laden
elements, much of with can be found in one rehearsal she did in a sound booth
when she sang Billie's 'I'm A fool to Want You' in a way that was much more complex than when she auditioned the song in a'capella when she was 7 on NGT.
When Billie was first booked into the jazz clubs of Harlem, her manager said that
she was the most improvisational singer he ever experienced. As far as Michael
Jackson relating a powerful story, go and listen to 'Strange Fruit' by Billie, and you
will understand what relating a powerful story is all about. The only thing she
would adopt that Amy did, was the 'stretching' or 'slurring' of words at the end of a lyrical line. All these other artists aren't included in Angelina's interview with
Nadia Neophytou, only Billie, and Angelina explains why? Without Billie Holiday,
there would be no Angelina Jordan today. Billie Holiday is on an inventive genius
level that no other singer accomplished and Angelina's genius allowed her to
realize that very early on, for at the end of that interview with Nadia Neophytou,
Angelina added, 'I am very blessed that her (Billie's) music found me very early'.
@@ridgemanron Billie was important to Angelina, but so were the others and more l mentioned. Angelina has song more Adele and Elvis, than Billie. As far as Strange Fruit, written by Abel Meeropol, a teacher who gave the song to Billie, that and God Bless the Child are the go to songs for people who are not familiar with her. As far as throwing out Frank Sinatra as an AJ enfluence, remember, he wrote "l'm a Fool to Want You". This song was about Ava Gardner.. Frank Sinatra is a master of phrasing. You want to hear phrasing.th-cam.com/video/sJsXL_qSPKo/w-d-xo.htmlsi=_eh89lBYNjWS9RT2 Wouldn't think you would know her, but I'll bet PHAT money Angie does.
What is it about Angelina stating that, if not for Billie Holiday, there would be
no Angelina Jordan? It's something you don't seem to comprehend. And what
does Sinatra writing a song have to do with how an artist sings it? Absolutely
nothing. He was a 'crooner'who the young girls would go crazy over, but can he
put over a song like 'It's Impossible' or 'And I Love You So' like Perry Como?
We all know the answer to that. If you took the time to listen to Billie's catalog
of songs, you would realize she was the one that all the singers you mention,
including Amy, learned from, and more important that it was she who made
Angelina the singer she has become. Not my words, but her's. No one is
mentioned in the same breath as Billie by Angelina, and that's a fact.
@@ridgemanron Poser!
You need to stay in your sand box and play there, for you surely
don't have any idea about all the comments you babble about
being based in fact when it's clear they aren't.
Well said, good reaction. But please dont cut those runs. She also does runs and a contrasting phrase next. So if you choose to cut mid phrase/run please back it up 5/10 seconds so you can also enjoy the artists intention of pacing and flow. Yes, she could sing gibberish for all i care but theres some beautiful moments in here that were missed 😊
Have you listen to her singing my way? I think she is 11 or 12. And also I will survive at 10 is amazing.😉
If you're looking for Sinatra covers, she's done My Way, which is kinda funny when you think about the contrast of a young girl singing about the end of her life. And of course Fly me to the Moon, she's done that two dozen times and its kind of her signature song.
🎉❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉, Xrho.
she is doing her own stuff. now! so do that. and the old once as spice?
Love your reaction, and your skill in analyzing Angelina's performance is so spot-on
Great reaction.
‘My Funny Valentine’, by Nancy Wilson sounds similarly like a lighter version of what we are hearing from Angelina’s?
Excellent analysis.
Check out,”Above the water.” Also an original song written for Angelina. Completely different genre on steroids. Most purists AJ fans don’t care for it. I love it! In my top ten with as many as 100 other songs by AJ😊
Steven Spielberg
Angelina posted a picture of her and Steven Spielberg standing together on IG and According to AJ: "Growing up with your legendary movies Steven Spielberg, and having no idea, one day I would be singing for you. Truly so honored." Does anyone know what this is about? Will AJ be featured as a 1940s period singer in Spielberg's new series "Masters Of The Air" on A-TV? , © Larry D. Pifer
When you try to explain Angelina Jordan. You are going to loose you brain. You are going to sound Lost. Crazy. Silly. Lack of words
