True Dark Seed, really delivered this man understands Jazz, I enjoyed Angelina's depth, and soul the mastery of this complex music comes so effortlessly to her, and at such a young age. Great interpretationTrue Dark Seed.
I love the details you point out. You're illuminating her mastery. For me, with her version, I actually hear all of the words and understand the story for the first time. And my kids and I danced to this song back in the day. Everyone loved this song. Heck, we all loved Michael Jackson. And I am blown away by this cover. 💜
Thank you Ellen. So glad you enjoy the reactions. Monday I will start recording reactions again. Just finished my new desk and ready to put it to work.
The King of Pop meets the Queen of Jazz and she took his iconic pop hit and turned into a Jazz classic ! Only the Barefoot Princess could accomplish this feat with no problem ! No one does it better than Angelina !
It's like she's telling a story to her friend, first in her room, then at work and then at the bar. I start to believe its about her! Like it's not her kid. Illogical, but she's so believable! And sassy. I like this sassy Angelina. Like don't f with her. I'm so glad you understand her techniques! Its super tiring to hear people complain about her "diction" or "not staying on the beat". It's clearly amazing technique and done on purpose! Icymi, that studio is available to rent in LA. Her uncle/manager arranged it. Her cover of "Yesterday" is at the same location.
Hey Buddy , nice to see you back on A J ; )) She is incredible musically ; ), only she could think of and have the voice and the idea ..to do an 180 on M J 's Billie Jean hehe I think u ready for song * I'm still holding out for you * at age 10 almost 11.You never hear an 10 / 11 year old girl sing like that. It's say * Leaked * in the intro ..is an special story about why. .Some *Angels will fill u in if u ask my friend ; )) have a good one take care an stay safe ; ))
@@truedarkseed Many Angels feel “I’m Holding Out For You” is her finest vocal achievement..it’s truly stunning and never mind she was only 10! Written by Brandon Lowrey, AKA Baby Fuzz and demo’d by Angelina BEFORE Baby Fuzz recorded his version..the similarities are uncanny! There is speculation as to why she didn’t release the song..all of which is just that, speculation..truth is it’s a crying shame and maybe, just maybe RR could pull some strings and make it happen..If so, I believe it could bring her a massive No.1 hit.
Wow! Master of reaction. Angelina will, or would love it, to be recognized like this, to get her art of dynamics, her subtle inflections, her build up appreciated. Because this is a decent masterpiece. Love, how she makes this song her own, while showing respect to the original, showing possibilities, this song contains.
Angelina is a musical artist unlike any I ever seen before. Her musical instincts are off the charts and is blessed with vocal talents that please my soul to no end.
Great reaction. Love the detail that you exposed that I hadn't heard from other reactors, even the vocal coaches. You have a unique perspective and musical ear. I learned something new. God bless.
Hey Truedarkseed, great to have you back. You know there are literally 1000's of "cookie cutter" covers of this great MJ song, but who would have the artistic creativity to create an entire new rendition of this song and not care what people think. Anyone that can see past the original song will absolutely know that Angelina created a Jazz Masterpiece from the original, while still honoring Michaels original...it is hard for a lot of people, but I do believe you understand for sure what this young lady did here. She is one of a kind, not cut from the mold of most current day singers, (sorry Angelina is a vocal artist), there are really 1000's of singers, and interprets music the way she see's it in that brilliant musical mind she possesses. Angelina telling a story that I now understand.
I would argue that she cared what the the Jackson family thought of it before she released it..I understand she’s sought their approval..other then that i totally take your point..
True, glad you are back to Angelina after what seems like forever! Levels and layers indeed . . .✨⭐✨💖✨⭐✨ And I never thought I would agree with anyone that Angelina is Stupid, Stupid, but you convinced me.🤣
@@truedarkseed one of the judges on NGT was looked after by MJ i think his name was Omar , glad your back , love your passion , i call Miss AJ my 5th element , my world is complete
@@ooshta I read that she made contact through Omar Bhatti, the young judge from NGT that became a family friend, who had a close connection to MJ..I believe he lived at Neverland with MJ..I understand they loved the cover and gave the go ahead.
Michael Jackson's classic is wonderful and now Angelina creates another classic but only jazzy. Great to have you back Truedarkseed, see you on the next one. Great job sir.
Angelina totally changed the song, but stayed true enough that you know it's Billie Jean. But she also totally changed the presentation by sitting while singing without moving her legs. Everything is totally different from Michael's version. Now this is a 2 for 1 song, 2 masterpieces from the same song, one is pop & the other is jazz.
It’s so good. She’s fearless about making songs her own-even untouchable songs like Billie Jean or Bohemian Rhapsody. She does it so comfortably, so easily, so beautifully. Yes, you’re right, MJ would be proud. As always, Angelina gives us something completely original and unique, but the respect for the original is clear. Let’s see someone try to cover this.
This is just what a musical genius can do. I’ve heard other female singers do this song. Most just belt the crap out of it but don’t reinterpret the song and do not focus on the story. Angelina can reinvent songs. Watch and listen to the changes she made to every Amy Winehouse song she’s performed yet kept the feel of the music the same. Rehab is the best example for me because Back to Black is just not my favorite style of song. Great reaction and very glad to see you back. I am so sorry for the loss of your mother. I’ve lost both of my parents and listening to Angelina is a comfort and a save place to go when you need a Freind. Take care
You are exactly right. They story of the song is why the song is a classic. Michael Jackson was a master story teller. Angelina understands that to her core. So what do we get when she touches a cover song? Perfection!
Decided to wake up the neighbour's again? Good, I'm all in. Back after listening. Man, you're good with jazz. You're starting to get ME trained a bit. Kudos.
We miss you TDS, nice to have you back. That was a nice reaction to (15) Angie. Your right, MJ would be proud & most likely would love to do a duet with her. Please react to these 2 from Angie. “Lovin' You” - Proysenfestivalen 21.07.2017 th-cam.com/video/Y4WPbmjgUg4/w-d-xo.html Angie’s (11) from “Just Want To Make Love To You” originally written by Willie Dixon 1954 & covered by Muddy Waters & a lot of other big name blues singers also. Angie changed the lyrics & made it more age appropriate & also made it really awesome a bit modern style blues with a nostalgic feel also. You’ll see she’s opening her concert with this song. (Trimmed & enhanced version th-cam.com/video/qvmrvEdYSOY/w-d-xo.html) “You Make Me Feel So Young” cover by Frank Sinatra th-cam.com/video/MQN3ecsutLs/w-d-xo.html She’s 13. She did her hair & clothes in the era of the song. She's singing this in a type of duet style, this will really blow your mind. Her range in this song gets down into her low lower register into the 2nd octave. She sings both parts in this. (Male & Female)
Although I did not see a credit for it, I think that the piano accompaniment is by Rob Christie who has done so several times since she signed with Republic Records. He is a two-time Grammy winner and the Director of Republic Records L.A. Studio. It appears that he has been commissioned to watch out for Angelina and help direct her career. it is a good match.
Welcome home TDS, your Angelina family missed you 🤗 Hope all is well with you? I was stunned when I first heard this! No one, I mean no one can rearrange songs like Angelina..she’s truly a genius. Can someone help me out here? I understand that Angie rearranges the vocal interpretation but how does the actual piano accompaniment come about..I know it’s Rob Christie on piano but who pens the music or is it a collaboration between the two? Cheers in advance.
@@truedarkseed Yes her “wish list” was first seen at the beginning of the black and white version of IPASPOY ..I’ve seen her working through her song Oslo..playing a few piano chords, then writing a few notes on her pad..I’m sure you can’t get to to playing four instruments without being able to read music..her genius lies in her ability to laser beam into the true meaning of a song she tackles.
Glad to see you back, I hope all is getting better and well! I bought Thriller the year it came out and been singing, swinging and dancing along it for many years and times with Billie Jean being one of the songs obviously. The funny thing is that with Angelina's version, the story became much clearer to me than in the past and I ended listening up to it really close. It is a great version in which she turned this classic epic song into wonderful jazzy version to be enjoyed on the beach sipping a drink watching the sunset. I never would have thought it to be possible :-)
So glad to see you back True! When I first heard she was going to cover this song, I first thought, oh boy, I'm not sure about this! When I first heard this, I was a little shocked...shocked that it was so jazzy and shocked that it was really good! She took a chance in changing up this song and she actually did it really well. There are a few critics or purists that said she should have sang it the way Michael did. If she did, she would be just a copycat. This young lady had the balls to not just sing this, but to arrange it in a way that made it her own and showcase her creative artistry. I give her a lot of props for this one. Again, good to see you back True and wishing you the best. God Bless!
I heard it was Quincy Jones' idea, when Angelina sing for his 85 y birthday concert at age of 12, that Angelina has to do a jazz-version of Billie Jean. And 3 years after that, she did it. And who is Quincy Jones? He is the producer of Michael Jackson's Thriller album and song Billie Jean.
Michael Jackson will always be the greatest but here comes Angelina Jordan just as great with her version paying homage to Michael. Hail to our Queen of jazz

"You can't do a jazz version of Billie Jean!"
Angelina: "Hold my shoes."
Such a great comment 👍❤️
Facts! Lol
Hold my shoes.....BWAHHAHAHA. Beautiful

Thanks and it is a fact, she is the truth
When she whispering the Word... twice... omg ❤️

Especially with the “slurred” comment… you definitely know that’s part of jazz. BTW, The Jackson family previewed this arrangement by Angelina. 🌺
And I wonder what happened or what they said?
Awesome!
Me too

love your reactions to the 'New barefoot Queen of Jazz'. She is a master musical arranger .
That she my friend, that she is.

Nice job TDS! Yeah..this is Billie Jean. Exactly the same Billie Jean you know except it was completely different. That's what Angelina does!
And does amazingly

Million years ago a cover by Adele. Only her and her gitar player Ivan. She was maby 10 or 11 there. Love from Norway 🇳🇴 so it's really good
You have an ear,great to enjoy your insights.

If you think about it, this song was so ready for jazz. Those opening cords are taken from jazz

Could put that on a continual loop couldn't you.
Yes I could indeed.
Michael Jackson will always be the greatest but here comes Angelina Jordan just as great with her version paying homage to Michael. Hail to our Queen of jazz
I agree on both counts
Do you not react to Angelina anymore?
Yes James, I'm doing one right now. lol
Where are you now
