Every time I hear this song, I always think of Perry Como. My mom and dad would listen to him a lot and that voice was always familiar to me. I also remember the different specials he would have on tv and how our family would always gather around to watch. It's nice to see someone like Angelina listen and keep this music alive....
Finding Angelina is like discovering a time capsule that once it's opened, out flows a roller coaster like ride through musicality that spans over 90 years, and we owe it all to a young Norwegian girl that was able to compartmentalize all the nuance and intricate aspects of oh so many genres of music, over more than a decade of her life.
Excellent presentation. I couldn't imagine that a masterpiece of a song s interpretation would become greater than it is within the frame of a series of different interpretations of the same song in the past. The last minutes of this video filled our hearts with such a warmth that no artist can ever achieve it so far to such a depth as Angelina always does. Congratulations for your video and many thanks to Angelina and her family.
George and Ira Gershwin are in my top five! Of course, Angelina, covering, Summertime, brought George back to the limelight. (Porgy, and Bess). I remember Perry Como‘s version most, because of his television show. Thank you for sharing all of these memories, Alan. 😇🌺
Good morning, Alan. And my favorite again, is Angelina Jordan's rendition. Got very little sleep last night., which means I will crash at some point. I hope it doesn't impact my noon time; Thank you for this compilation.
Angelina Jordan's version sounds happy and full of joy, they do make a beyond fabulous duo, they definitely need to do a EP together that's for sure, they compliment each other perfectly, I pray they do get to do some songs and/or EP together, they make magic moments for us fans to thoroughly enjoy to the fullest 🙏 one more thing, I actually liked the punk version 😊
Burt Bacharach and Hal David are two of my favourites all the way since the sixties. Hal Davids rhymes are sometimes brilliant, for instance "You get enough germs to catch pneumonia. After you do, he'll never phone you." I have got almost all of Dionne Warwicks LPs with Bacharach songs and even saw her in concert in Stockholm in the nineties.
When I first read the caption ( quickly ) I thought it said ' This Magic Moment ' by Jay and The Americans lol...And I thought 'WHOA, Angelina gonna give that a try '? lol....But WOW, Angelina's version of ' Magic Moments ' is so sweet and beautiful.. I didn't even know she did a cover of it...Thanks for sharing..Cheers..
Speaking of Burt and Hal, I've always longed to hear Angelina sing " Anyone Who Had a Heart". Even when l write it, l hear it in my head! Dionne was my jam in my preadolescence. Thanks,, Alan, this was a unique curve ball. AJ always dominates.
You know what would be really awesome to hear Angelina Jordan do, take a well known soft song and make it loud in the style of Screamin Jay Hawkins, I absolutely know that Angelina Jordan could make a magic moment by pulling this off, I would absolutely love to hear her just let lose like that, it would be epic, I smile brightly 🌞
Thanks you always seem to take us back to a special place in time. Interesting how sometimes you can pick up on the earlier artists that influenced the great singers when Perry Como sings magic moments I think I can hear that he was influenced by Rudy Valley not a criticism though because I think all great singers are influenced by the great ones that came before them.
I remember watching the Perry Como show and this song on our Black and white 17” tv at age 7. This is a seldom seen AJ clip. The two did a couple of others out side that day. Nice work yet again!
Though I would not call myself a fan, when Bing started singing the voice recognition was almost instant. A very distinctive voice for me, whereas Perry Como always had a generic feel to me. Always a thought provoking voice tour...thanks Alan!
This song brings back memories, Alan! I mostly remember the Perry Como version. Did not know that Angelina with Egil had covered it too. Sweet. I bet that was one setting where she was not singing barefoot!
Alan, do you know where we might find a list of all of Angelina’s live/benefit performances? A friend asked me and I would defer to your knowledge before I try to find accurate info on the web.
www.dimlylit.net/aja/ this website has every single performance of AJ. If you look at the description, it will tell you which are live performances. It is very comprehensive and accurate
Charity she donated the 80,000 dollars she won on Norway’s Got Talent Angelina Jordan won Norway’s Got Talent at the age of 8 in 2014, the prize for winning was eighty thousand dollars, this money was donated to children’s charities. At age 8 her first charity performance was in Germany to raise money for heart disease. Again, at age 8 she does a telethon for Plan International Children’s Charity. Still at age 8 she performs for Norwegian Sea Rescue Society Charity. On the 12th of Dec still at age 8, she performs at Save The Child Nobel Peace Prize, 4 days later, even though she has a very bad cold, she performs for the Swedish Heroes Foundation against her doctor's orders. At age 10 she performed for the Norwegian Refugee Council Charity. Also age 10 she performed in Seoul in South Korea for Rotary International to raise money for children’s vaccinations. Angelina Jordan comes from a very wealthy family and does need the money, she, and her family want to share her wonderful talent with the world. This is what makes AJ and her family so very special. This information was on Alan's Pod Cast.
Hi Alan, I have a concern and wondered if you have any information. There has not been any news about Angelina's album. Is there a problem? Does Republic Records still want Angelina as one of their artists? They had minimal to no publicity or push on her EP. She and her team has not said anything. This total silence is a concern. Thanks.
That's What Friends are For, when Dionne did that with Stevie, Whitney and Luther, wow, Whitney blew it out of the park. As for this, I never liked this song, even though I've always been a fan of Perry Como. And Angelina does this nicely.

a breath of fresh air, as always, from a heavensent sublime healer....

Angelina's angels get magic moments, filled with LOVE , each time we listen to her sing.
I wonder how many artists you have introduced us to through your videos...must be thousands...
That was great - a real blast from the past. Love the smile on Egil's face as he was playing for AJ.

Thenk you , Alan.
Oh the memories.
Angelina Jordan has a special gift of bringing back the nostalgia of the past with her amazing voice. She can sing any song and make it sound like a classic, reminding us of the great singers who touched our hearts. She is a joy to listen to and a treasure to cherish. © Larry D. Pifer
Seems clear to me that she's reminiscing about times gone by with Egil.
Good morning, Alan. And my favorite again, is Angelina Jordan's rendition. Got very little sleep last night., which means I will crash at some point. I hope it doesn't impact my noon time; Thank you for this compilation.
Mesmerizing voice of Angelina as always!
Too syrupy for my tastes but I enjoyed seeing Angelina interacting with Egil again. Maybe he will go on tour with her this year.
I love Angelina's version with Egil - so simple yet (I think) so beautiful and fun

❤❤❤

Very enjoyable. Thank you for putting this together.
The only one I remember singing "Magic Moments" was Perry Como, great work Alan.
A song writer may write the words and music, but a vocalist truly brings the song to life. This is because a vocalist can express the emotions and meanings behind the lyrics with their voice, and also add their own style and personality to the melody. A vocalist can also connect with the audience and convey the message of the song more effectively. A song writer and a vocalist are both important for creating a great song, but a vocalist has the power to make it memorable and impactful. "Angelina Jordan" © Larry D. Pifer
