ANGELS: Just a head's up, we recorded this reaction the DAY BEFORE her live version came out at the church - otherwise we would have reacted to that one! lol Also, we have a full 90 minute Reaction Wednesday next month with AJ's name on it, so perhaps we sneak it in there for Johnny as I (Richard) watched it during the premiere... I couldn't help myself!!
The street version includes percussion. The two church versions include strings.Both are worth watching (studio vs church acoustics).
The street and the first church version might both use the same studio vocal track. Interesting is hearing the different perceptions by changing the instrumentals.
Oh, that's a bummer😅 I am here already telling you that you should have chosen another video😂 I hope you check that one out, it's amazing! In fact, there are two videos in the church. I would recommend you the one called: If I Were a Boy (Live Acapella at Saint James Church) 💜
@@xanamo I watched the premiere of it and was in the chat - absolutely stunning performance!
SO HAPPY to see your plans for next month! Will try to make sure the Angel fan base knows about it - good chance you'll get a Big Crowd for that one 😇. And it was very cool to see one of you at the Premiere recently! Thank you for the first couple reactions you've done, and welcome to a quite glorious rabbithole - you will not regret it. Not sure of the timing, but when it happens she is going to explode into public awareness. It just feels inevitable.
@@dojoswitzerThey DO use the same vocal track.
Angelina's doesn't exactly have fans. We've watched since she was just a wee babe and we've become her adoptive parents/grandparents, cheering every accomplishment and hope for the future. We're proud of every new release as if we had something to do with us.
I have to admit that when I drove up to the Westgate Hotel in Las Vegas and saw her name and picture in lights it was a proud moment.
@@tomrogers1305 I agree with what you said. My wife thinks I’m crazy that I think of Angelina as a granddaughter. I just do. I’ve been watching her since 2000 when I flew back home to Ohio. My brother picked me up at the airport and on the way home he asked me if I ever heard of Angelina Jordan. I said no I haven’t. He told me I should check her out. I did ,and now I don’t listen to anyone else because everyone else is just not as good. I am so proud of her that I cry every time I hear her sing. She is such a sweetheart with a big heart ❤️
@@jimbinder7472exactly Jim. No one compares
@@jimbinder7472 I was hoping you would edit the "2000" to make it the actual year and not 6 years before she was born. 😊😊 I'm just curious and realize it was just a typo.
@@ShanLiBIt was probably 2020 🙂
A once successful pop song was upgraded with Angelina's version to an emotional masterpiece 👣💯AJ💯👣
I'm 66 and every time I hear her she brings tears to my eyes and I'm usually into country or rock
The richness in her voice is incredible. Someone mentioned the word Frybrato, and I think that suits her. If you like Amy Whinehouse, you will absolutely love Angelinas new unreleased song Bad Valentine. Its crazy good and her voice is 🔥🔥🔥
Absolutely phenomenal arrangement by Angelina, wait till you hear the cathedral live version, If I Was A Boy written by BC Jean and Toby Gad, originally sang by Jean later Covered by Beyoncé, Grammy Award winner and musical producer, Toby Gad approached Angelina to reinvent his song, he mentioned Angelina has the ability and emotion he wanted, Toby and Angelina are working on new music together which is exciting for us Angels, Angelina is so special her beautiful soulful jazzy pitch perfect voice touches your heart and soul, AJ has amazing voice control and a master of the lowest notes,her fans named her the barefoot Queen of jazz and soul with a thousand different styles and vocals, she can sing any genre,Angelina and Toby dropped an original called ( Bad Valentine) check it out it’s stunningly awesome, great reaction thanks 🙏
Many people would suggest starting with her performances on Norway's Got Talent, but she sang What A Difference A Day Makes shortly afterward, and she sings it wonderfully, so don't miss that one.There really is no way you can go wrong with Angelina. Some recordings are fan videos made with a phone and are of poor quantity audio. These are still things that Angels want to see, but I'm not sure that they are how I would introduce someone to her. She made several appearances on Norwegian TV after she won NGT, and these are professionally produced recordings that offer more clarity in hearing her early capabilities. Of course the recordings made by Republic Records when she was 14 are excellent but there are still real gems that her grandmother recorded of her singing at home with just a guitarist, and these are very good recordings of her at 12 years of age. I do really love the studio recording of her at six, but this is really something that people who are already fans of Angelina would want to see as opposed to what would be more interesting to someone who has never heard of her IMO. There are several long time Angels who will offer pre-selected lists intended to introduce her to new listeners, and these may be good places to start. I have really enjoyed your reviews of Angelina so far and look forward to many more! You guys are great! My own discovery of Angelina has been a wonderful experience, and I believe you will enjoy discovering her growth as an artist as well. She is just fantastic both as a person and as a vocalist. Enjoy!😊
Have you seen her Bohemian Rhapsody in AGT? She was only 13 then. It’s insane!
The most popular video of that performance has (July 2024) 104 million views. There are another 30 million views in other edits, plus a huge number of reaction views.
Summer breeze, or typhoon, AJ performances have the gravity of Jupiter.
Angelina Jordan's musical prowess is evident in her dynamic range of performances. Her collaboration with Toby Gad on the song "Bad Valentine" showcases her ability to deliver powerful vocals, and song writing skills that resonate with her audience. Meanwhile, her restrained performance at the Nobel Peace Prize ceremony highlights her versatility and sensitivity to the context of the event. Jordan's ability to convey deep emotion through her music, whether it's the raw energy of "Bad Valentine" or the poignant subtlety of "Unchained Melody" performed at the Nobel tribute, allows listeners to experience a profound connection to her artistry. Her performances are not just about vocal talent but are a testament to her understanding of the power of music as a universal language of human expression.
Angelina has always even from a young age a amazing unique silvery vibrato, I actually seen Angelina live on many occasions,she never disappoints!
You’ll see as you watch more that Angelina grabs you at the first notes-and you’re hooked for the whole ride. Her voice is immediately recognizable with the best low register I’ve ever heard from a woman-or a child. She makes you understand lyrics in a way the original singers never tried. Following something you said, if I were a lyricist, I’d want Angelina to sing my song. She sings to each of us individually-even in songs like this one which I don’t particularly like.
Bohemian Rhapsody-possibly the best live performance I’ve ever heard-should be your next. Her incredible arrangement, her voice, her presence-all at 13 years old. (New reactors frequently say they want to hear Angelina chronologically. That just doesn’t work because there are dozens and dozens of amazing performances before her teen years-and you’ll want to hear her later work).
My suggestion for a view to the past is her first time in public, the audition of NGT. Her rendition of Gloomy Sunday, the notorious Song of Billie holiday was a big surprise and started her career train 🚂 7y old girl 🎉
A quick word about the Angels. We are fiercely loyal to Angelina, many of us having watched her in real time as she grew up over the past 10 years or so. But we are also incredibly welcoming to others who also appreciate her talent. As you know, the rabbit hole is deep. But it is one of the friendliest places on the internet. Now, if you want to be truly shaken to the core you should turn back time to watch one of Angelina's auditions for Norway's Got Talent, where she channels Billie Holiday to sing "I'm A Fool to Want You". Already impressed? Well, she does the whole thing acapella and lands it completely in key. At seven years of age.
Surprisingly this version is the one that least showcases her talent. There is a live version of her in a London church (not the produced one in the same church) that just is quintessential Angelina. Angelina live is astonishingly good.
Angelina emotes better than any singer that I have ever experienced. Ever. She is the ultimate storyteller. You don't just listen to her songs... You FEEL them, deep. Utterly amazing and unprecidented - for me.
Her voice sounds expensive ... love it! Trust me, I've heard countless descriptive words for Angelina's voice, and this is the first time for expensive. You have just barely scratched the surface with her abilities. Angelina will thrill and mesmerize you time after time, at any age and in any genre.
Angelina is not only a one-of-a-kind vocal stylist, but also she is emerging as a brilliant song writer as well. Her lyrics in each of her songs have singular hooks. She has worked with some of the best in the business. Toby Gad is the most recent and we are looking for more wonderful things to emerge from this collaboration. Her art and humanity are on another level. The more I listen to her the more I want to listen to her.
If you dive deeply into her songs online there is so much to enjoy as she explores various genres and collaborates with so many talented musicians from around the world. I admit that I am addicted but in this case that is a good thing.❤
The less her voice is produced, the better she sounds!
I enjoyed your reaction to Angelina. Toby Gad is a multi Grammy award winning songwriter and producer. He has produced award-winning hits for many of the biggest superstars in the music industry, including names like Kelly Clarkson, John Legend, Demi Lovato, Beyoncé, and more. He has recently produced an album of his top songs called Piano Diaries. As co-writer, he invited Angelina to perform If I Were a Boy with him at piano, and with cello. It was also released with a music video, but many prefer the piano version. The song was originally made famous by Beyoncé in 2008, and has received over 600 million views. Most believe Angelina's version is much more intimate and emotional, and she has reimagined it rather than covered it.
Toby and Angelina also have been working on some original music, the first of which is a pre-release that you are reacting to. Bad Valentine is a jazzy, soulful, and powerful song that is perfectly suited for Angelina's voice. I think it has great potential to be the launching pad for the next phase of Angelina's career. Toby Gad is very influential in the industry and this collaboration is undoubtedly a huge break for Angelina.
We angels say, Angelina doesn’t cover songs, she uncovers them. Shows their true meaning as the composer intended them to be.
I really love her AGT performance of Yellow Brick Road at 14.
13.
"We don't see things as they are, we see them as we are.!!!" - Ms. Angelina Jordan Angel Fan's Family Worldwide & Beyond... "We Thank U - Throga"
So true, we are always looking through the filter of our past, same when you are looking at the sky.. you see the past because of the light speed
@@hans-georgschroter7887 Not me I always make the effort to live in the present moment because I know full well that the past only exists through the process of memory or remembrance that we choose to recreate, we must remember that everything we do is always done in the present moment if a person allows himself to be dragged into the past he loses all freedom of choice and fair and informed decision because he will be influenced by the emotions from the past. For me the past is no longer a reference only the present moment offers me immense freedom of decision-making choice at every moment of my life, that's the magic of the present moment, of course you have to have this state of consciousness at every moment of your life . Good day.
Angelina sings in a beuteful way ❤
The only reason she isn’t a household name is because she has an abundance of class and an amazing family that looks out for her well-being, all in good time. I love that her family didn’t let her sell her soul to the music industry and just let her find her way and do her thing with style. Her voice to me is the best I’ve ever heard.
Yes Expensive…..also classy,retro, timeless,bold,powerful,once in a generation,deep,full of emotions, touching hearts, healing souls,and profound. Don’t forget addictive.
Angelina has more colors in her voice than I have to describe it. She uses those colors to paint the story of the song. She captivates from the first note, then takes me on a journey through the song, with her deep rich, soulful tone hugging my soul.

🔥🔥🔥”Bad Valentine”🔥🔥🔥Pleassssse!!!!❤ You guys!!!
I've been following Angie for ten years. I often go back in time to hear her earlier performances. I STILL can't believe how great she was at TEN. ❤❤❤
Her newest song is "Bad Valentine" it will blow your mind. You can also watch her "10 Years in the Making ".
Yes!!!! I would love to see you react to this. It really shows off her powerhouse vocals.
Thank you guys for great reaction. ❤
We waiting for more 😊
Can`t wait to follow you two further into our musical world of Angelina. 👣💖 😄👍
“Her voice, to me, sounds expensive.” Spot on. Her voice sounds so very rich. I like how you brought up her vowel and consonant articulation. She studied jazz since she was a toddler so you’re correct that she chooses her vowels and consonants purely for the sound and feeling it creates. And for me, she nails it. Her storytelling is unmatched in contemporary voices.
I love AJ. She makes me feel good or bad depending on the song and how she wants to make me feel
She won Norway’s Got Talent at age 7 singing Gloomy Sunday. Please review her amazing performance!
She auditioned at age 7 singing "Gloomy Sunday" and in the final sang "Summertime". At that time, she was just turned 8.
I think this song really showed the range she has in terms of what she can do vocally. The end part is just pure pop sparkle bliss. We all know she can do a great vocal fry, but it is nice to see that side of her too.
the Piano Diaries cathedral version is my favourite by far. just my humble opinion
Bad valentine will knock your socks off. Great reaction.. subbed 😊
❤❤❤!
The Angel of Song walking the streets of London !!!
Now y’all need to watch the version in a church in London, plus the rehearsal where she sings the first part a cappella, and you can hear the acoustics. Amazing!
thank you great reaction she is amazing
A recent commenter called AJ's use of vibrato through vocal fry "frybrato" -- and I think that's absolutely correct!
All of her arrangements are incredible and unique. My absolute favorite arrangement is what she did with Bohemian Rapsody. To be able to take an over 6 min song, reduce it to less than 3 mins and allow you, the listener, to honor the original with a new appreciation. It's stunning.
Awesome reaction guys you will enjoy your journey wild bill angel 😇 since 2016
If you want an example of just what a prodigy/genius she is I think you would be well served to go back to one of her first visits to the studio at age 6/7 when she sang “I Who Have Nothing” and then hit the 4 NGT videos. Those show her obvious growth in the span of a year or so. Be sure to get the longer NGT videos with subtitles so you can read the judges comments. Those videos will give you a foundation of just how special this girl is. She is a musical force of nature. From there, it’s anything goes.
She also does the church video with the first half Acapella ! Maybe you didn’t see that version. It’s amazing my friend. She’s truly a gift to us regular humans 😁😁😁😁. I love your Angelina reactions very much. I must have watched both your reactions (3) 8 times each. Thanks again.
Hey guys take a look at How Great Thou Art❤❤
@@claudiasoto5014their jaws will drop! 😂
Angelina Jordan at 17 was invited to perform at the Nobel Peace Prize Ceremony.
Angelina Jordan's performance of "Unchained Melody" at the Nobel Peace Prize Ceremony in December 2023 was indeed a remarkable moment. At just 17, she not only showcased her extraordinary vocal talent but also co-wrote the arrangement, adding a personal touch to the performance. Her rendition was deeply moving, leaving the audience in awe and bringing many to tears. This event highlighted her as one of the greatest young talents in the world, capable of captivating audiences with her emotional and powerful performances.
J'adore❤❤❤
Thank you for reacting to Angelina!! Any song at any age that you choose will be amazing. I think you could start from the beginning. She won Norwegian’s got talent at 7. You could probably react to the whole show in just one or two reactions because the songs are short. She has many live performances. Feeling good at 10 is outstanding. ❤❤❤
Great reaction guys I can't wait for you to here.a 10 year old Angelina. I'm still holding out for you. Unbelievable
I agree. Every time I hear that song it's as if it is my first time. Chills and goose bumps. I'm 76 and have followed her for six years and I have heard every song that she has on TH-cam. A voice like no other.😊
Never Forget.....English IS NOT Angelina's first language.....she now INTENTIONALLY sings with an accent.
Any accent she may have had she lost a long time ago. Even in the pre performance interview on The View when she was 8, she really didn’t have an accent.
She is from 🇧🇻 lived one our from me..
Thank you guys for a wonderful reaction! You’re definitely got what’s so special about her voice and the choices she’s making. She’s definitely a show stopper! I like to say she’s like a chocolate box, with so many flavors, and they’re all so stunning tasty 😋. Her vibrato is the most beautiful I’ve ever heard, and she had it since a little girl.👌🔥🔥🔥🔥❤️
You really need to react to her album old enough. Her parents protected her, now she's finally "old enough".
One thing you gentlemen can count on. There is no bad way to listen to Angelina Jordan. If you window shop her catalog and something jumps out at you that you want to try on, check it out. ... BTW, you're doing just fine. Don't worry. ... Be Happy.
Something about Angelina's voice makes you feel the music and listen to the story being told.
I’m a Filipino fan of yours here in SoCal but I’m also a fan of Angelina since I first heard her sing Bohemian Rhapsody at a singing contest I forgot what it was. She has her own style and a unique quality to her powerful voice… just ❤️her so much. America is missing on many talents around the world , I wish the American music industry will have an awakening soon. We’re the lucky ones to have known so many amazing artists around the world because our eyes are always open but I really believe these artists’ gifts need to be heard by 8 billion people.
Fabulous reaction to my new new angels. Thank you for continuing your wonderful Journey with our beautiful barefoot princess. This is the pop video of the song that produced with Toby Gatt. Angelina has , I think seven versions of this song with with Toby and they're actually even more wonderful to watch. As you have already mentioned. I would suggest that you get a chance to watch her other videos called "Bad Valentine" with Toby Gat live which is absolutely fantastic that will become a single next month and also "Unchained Melody " from her live performance at the Nobel Peace prize last December in Oslo, Norway at 17. She demonstrated a fantastic emotional connection to that song that is one of her best live performances ever with the world famous Kork orchestra from Norway. More importantly, to get the real bang for your dollar, I would suggest two of her earlier performances. Both live with an orchestra called "Loving You" and " . It's a man's world" when she was only 11 on stage. It is absolutely mind-blowing like"I Put a Spell on You." Angelina at a young young age was absolutely overwhelmingly powerful and delivered vocally dynamic performances ! . Guys keep posting. You've got 300 videos to go and I'm glad that you're on this journey with us. Every one of them will amaze you and you guys are fantastic because you have so much to talk about and are so informative and intelligent in your commentary. Your TH-cam! Channel is definitely on all the angels playlist now andyou have garnered a new group of wonderful fans that will definitely be listening to your Channel all the time. Much thanks and love from Canada 👍🇨🇦❤️
You can find the voice of many of the greatest vocalists in her layers.
Per l'età che a e la numero 1 oggi nel mondo. Quanto canta non puoi farne almeno di non sentirla sempre. Fenomeno
there is no reason in my mine to apologize for listening to current Angelina. As we all want to see her explode and by exposing your subscribers to her you are helping in that. I have been following her since 2018. listen to her every day, going back to the early years regularly because there are incredible performances which show her development over the years
Yeees, an Angelina-Day! But start chronologically to see her develop.
Angelina out here giving me goosebumps every time without fail.
I recently showed my Sister Angelina Jordan…believe me we, never have had the same taste in music. We were talking about the Amy Winehouse Movie. She actually likes Angelina Jordan. I haven’t followed her actively but Angelina is Epically Amazing and the Top 🔝 Level Talented she has at such a young age. She’s Incredible!! Thank you both for supporting this young talented Vocalist. You guys are Great.
When Angelina was asked by an interviewer at the Ivors Awards how she approached the reinterpretation of this song, her response was: "When I do covers, I love to make it my own, to do an rendition of it basically."
As for modifying vowels, dropping consonants, changing whole words, not finishing sentences - she is often criticised for this (no "clean" lyrics) - but using these tools from the Jazz singers toolkit really helps to create her own magic. She's also great in using empty space. It is said she learned phrasing from Sinatra, which he was the master. Plus as Frank once said "I never let a song get in the way of my storytelling" and she sticks to that - she's a great storyteller already (you guys remember her "Suspicious minds" rendition at age 16?).
As for suggestions, that's a hard task for 90 minutes ain't long - you can include 18 songs, maybe 20. Way to less.
Most2dot0 has a good list for newbies, but (rigthfully) focused on her own originals.
As for her signature song "Fly me to the moon" I like her acoustic version (salt lake video) more rather then the one on The View.
Other suggestions in addition to Most2dot0 list:
1) What a difference a day makes - a very small 8yo in the middle of a huge crowd
2) Every time we say goodbye (TV2 TV broadcast, age 10)
3) Lovin' you and
4) Cry me a river (both from her 2017 summer concert tour at age 11)
5) It's a man's world ("It's Magic" album release concert 2018 = 12yo)
6) Welcome to my world (13yo)
7) Stay (12 yo)
8) Summertime, with KORK orchestra (NRK TV broadcast, 10yo)
9) Easy on me (Adele cover, studio version, 15yo)
10) Unchained Melody on Nobel peace prize tribute concert (NRK TV broadcast, 17yo)
11) Good in Goodbyes and
12) Diamond (both originals from her EP "Old Enough", 17yo)
13) Nat King Cole's The Christmas song (recently featured in a Netfli* movie, released on her 2023 Christmas EP but recorded in 2021 = 15yo)
14) I'd rather go blind (IG post 2019, 12/13o)
As for Very different performances:
Song for A (classical/cinematic),
Above the water (EDM),
Something's got a hold on me (kind of gospel),
... --> reserved for another 90 min ;-)
Hi Paul! That’s impressive list, however what about Angelina singing Man’s World at 12? Her performance was SPECTACULAR!
The genius in this production is in realizing when Bruce Springsteen did it in his 'Academy Award' winning
video for 'Streets of Philadelphia', the impact it had 'worldwide' was huge. Angelina emulates what Bruce did,
but whereas he did it in monotone 'talking' form, Angelina adds power replies throughout her walking thru the
streets rendition.
Both covers of this by Angelina are glorious but I prefer the stripped down version Piano Diaries. That version lets her voice absolutely shine. Thanks to Toby for asking her to sing this cover of his song for his Piano Diaries album. Toby is quoted saying, “Working with Angelina has been nothing short of inspiring. Her ability to channel profound emotion through her voice adds a whole new depth to the song.” They are also working on other songs for AJ. This will be huge for her.
Welcome to The Rabbit Hole. Get comfortable. There is no escape. But the company is good. Some of us saw Angelina in her first public US concert last September in Portsmouth NH. It was 2 hours we'll never forget.
What an amazing reaction to Angelina. It's good when reactors that know what they are talking about give their opinion.
Agreed!
I can't wait for your 90 min reaction next month, love your reactions
She is a master story teller.
She is just as good, or better, live;)
You guys are great, thank you for this reaction.
*UP NEXT, ANGELINA'S NEW RELEASE "BAD VALENTINE" CAN'T WAIT FOR YOU GUYS TO COVER IT!*
The three songs she sang at AGT are all phenomenal … at 13 years old!
Hi! I really like this song in the Angelina's voice and also the other version of the same song - "piano diaries". When Angelina is accompanied by soft instrumentation, as in this case, I perceive even better her great voice and I feel Angelina herself. Thank you guys again 👏👋
YES! If not already, you are soon to be angles ❤
Greatings from an old Danish Dear and Angel 🌷🇩🇰❤️
8 year old Angelina, What a difference a day makes. You won't be disapointed! LIVE
Angelina Jordan is one of a kind, a signature storytelling voice that only comes around is perhaps one thousand years, the sounds and harmonics she creates are like nothing I have ever experienced in my life.
Looking fwd to more 🥳😍💪
Coucou 👋 elle est adorable et talentueuse. Je me suis intéressée à sa voix et son style depuis son passage à "NORWAY GOT TALENT". Merci messieurs pour votre réaction, vos commentaires et connaissances de la musique.
C'est un bonheur de vous écouter et regarder vos vidéos.
Merci encore et bons baisers de Paris 🇫🇷❤❤❤😘😘😘🙏🙏🙏
Fantastic reaction, thanks Richard and Johnny. This is a more rhythmic, thanks to the percussion, and less urgent version of the other in the cathedral, with a walk in an urban setting, probably more suited to younger listeners and with city overtones. It's however another wonderful rereading of this song, so sweet and powerful at the same time, her voice seems to fill the streets she travels. Angelina always manages to bring the soul of the songs to life. Also listen to the new song just released by Angelina and Toby Gad, "Bad Valentine", it's pure and beautiful power! 💛🧡❤
Your analysis is spot on. Angelina plays with the words. They are both means of conveying meaning and emotion for her, and they are sounds to be sung. There are many examples of it in her other songs. Perhaps she does this because English is not her first language. Or she just is a musical genius from another galaxy.
When Angelina chooses to cover another artist’s song(s) she sprinkles her angel dust on them and the takes ownership of them.
I just enjoy her, her sound, her interpretation, and I'm an "Angel". However you guys really help me und understand what it is about her persona, voice, feeling and her natural beauty takes hold of her songs.and drive then into a beautiful place in your heart. May she go on forever.
one of my favourites is a tiktok of 'love is a game' really shows off her expensiveness.
You are right about your assessment about us Angels. We are not only supportive of Angelina , we truely love Angelina not only for her singing but her as a person that she is. Angelina has dropped I believe 7 versions of this song. There is one at St James church which is partially a capella. It is gorgeous ❤. We Angels appreciate your support. I am sure other Angels have already made other suggestions. So enjoy and pass on love like Angelina ❤❤❤❤👣
How this cover came about: Producer, musician, songwriter Toby Gad recently released an album (May) called Piano Diaries which includes reworkings of songs that he co-wrote. He asked several different artists to provide vocals on these new versions for his album.
Angelina was asked to provide the vocals for this song. Two versions were released that use the same vocal track however with different instrumentation. There is this version with more contemporary instrumentation and a version with more stripped down instrumentation which allows you to hear the details in her performance more clearly.
Prior to this release and since, she and Toby have performed the song live at least 5 times.
Toby says that Angelina is very inspiring so they are actually working on new material also.
Yes. Do the 6 yr old Angelina in the studio. Shes ADORABLE. And she sings her a*s off too. 👍🏻

Thank you a thousand times for the support, my fellow angel 😇 from Angelina! our jazz queen👸 and angel 😇! on her two You Tube channels 🙏She deserves it a thousand times over 😀!
Please react to her originals too on that Wednesday. I prefer her covers of the much older era songs. Thanks for the reaction.
It is said by me and many of Angelina followers that she doesn't really cover songs , she has the unique ability to uncover songs that may have been popular but she adds so much emotion with her voice they become interesting in a new way ,your channel is fast becoming a fan favorite
Hi guys, yes the omission of consonants is due to her jazz background, and you're right, she is a godsend for every sound engineer because she doesn't use and doesn't need autotune, for me she is the best singer in the world right now and Tony Gad has asked her for this and other songs, one song that hasn't been released yet can be heard here on TH-cam Live with his permission, you just have to search for the song "Bad Valentine"
Why? Why does she make those choices? Modifying vowels, dropping consonants, everything else; and they sound good? I decided long ago that Angelina’s brain works with music the reverse of everyone else. We hear a series of sounds and our brain decides, “does it sound better or worse”, but Angelina’s seems to just stream out what sounds better. Because she did this from such an early age, I believe it’s subconscious; a musical savant without the social deficits.
It's because she is a musical genius... can't really understand how she does it, just have to enjoy it.. and indeed the "lack of social deficits" goes against the stereotype of a genius (but it is just a stereotype )
@@geoffreynorth9046it’s actually why she’s a musical genius..great observation..she never ever gets it wrong..
I actually have a more down-to-earth explanation. She started singing English before she could speak English. She now speaks English fluently but those early years are still flavoring her pronunciation today--and that's just fine!
ANGELINA HAS MASTERED THE BALANCE OF HONOURING THE ORIGINAL AND AT THE SAME TIME MAKING IT HER OWN. SHE NEVER DISAPPOINTS AND IN PERSON PERFORMANCES ARE MAGICAL. IT IS SO NICE TO WATCH REACTORS WHO TRULY GET HER. THANK YOU.
Bad Valentine by Angelina Jordan and Toby Gad the video is on James Thiel’s TH-cam Channel as he got permission from Toby to release the video it’s a live performance at the Hotel Cafe in Los Angeles on May 16, 2024
I cant wait for your Angelina reactions. You two are great. Just pleasant to watch. 👍🏻❤️
Thank you guys so much A bit late I see the angels have landed , just wanted to say you have no idea how much we adore AJ she is like family , she doesn't just sing she is a heart to heart experience ,straight from the very essence of her being, mesmerising magical majestic Goddess of music and the new renaissance , Norway's got talent is where the legend began of the 7 yrs old barefoot mini jazz queen it is a must and the four performances to her winning the show , I am excited for you guy's she has filled my heart with so much joy and love and I have not missed a day since I found her.💜👣😇
This official video version is quite good, However, IMO, it takes a back seat to her “Piano Diaries” version. The Piano Diaries arrangement and setting is perfection. It’s located in the Saint James church with Toby Gad accompanying Angelina by playing the piano, along with a cellist accompanying Angelina.
Amazing reaction!
Waiting for the next!!🤩🤩🤩
I was sooooo disappointed you both didn't react to the live version of this song that she performed. It was shot in a church with a piano & cello for accompaniment. Now that was 🤯🤯& breathing. 🔥🔥🔥. Just read the pinned comment & can't wait for Wednesday. BTW this isn't Beyoncé song, Toby Gad wrote it & chose AJ for the re-release on his upcoming album "The Piano Diaries" which includes all of his greatest & Grammy Award winning hits he's had to date, with new young up & coming artist. ✌✌
I'm a seventy years old Swiss guy and a huge Angelina Jordan fan. She's the best!
