You have a new subscriber! Thank you for discovering and reacting my favourite singer. Although yuu did not show it in your reaction, you may have heard that Simon said that he had never heard that version before. He, was correct. Angelina re-arranged it for the performance. She does this with many of her cover songs. Her fans call it "Angelinafying". Are you aware that she received the Golden Buzzer from Heidi Klum? This took her to the Final. performance. The lady who first stood and clapped at the end of Angelina's performance was her maternal grandmother, Mery Zamani. On her right was Angelina's mother, Sara Astar, then Juliette,her sister and last her uncle, Michael Astar who is also her Manager. My introduction to Angelina was on her first appearance at Norway's Got Talent and I didn't expect much from a 7 year old. Just a cute little girl, all nervous, rushing the song in parts, hesitating and then stumbling over or forgetting her words and generally acting her age and doing her best to get through a childish song like "Twinkle, twinkle little star". What did I see? Well, it was a seven year old child, with wild hair and gaps in her mouth, where there once were Baby teeth. And that was when the normal perception ended and things turned upside down. She confidently answered the questions put to her by a Judge. Declared she was going to sing a song by the legendary Billie Holiday. Gestured off stage for the technician to start the music and then started singing. The body of the 7 year old was still there but the voice wasn't. Or was itt? I was surprised then and that surprise is still with me, some six years later. I have followed her career since I saw that first video on TH-cam and in the six years she has been singing publicly she has mastered many musical genres, including Blues, Country, Disco, Jazz,Pop, R&B and Soul, EDM and Rock and covered songs first performed by many famous singers,like Adele, Whitney Houston, Nancy and Frank Sinatra, Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald, Lana del Ray, Gloria Gaynor, Elvis Presley, Louis Armstrong and many others. What is more extraordinary is that she takes ownership of every song she sings while still paying respect to the original. You will notice that she never goes into unnecessary theatrics. Never sings those high or low notes unless they are absolutely necessary. Never projects herself in any performance which says "look how good I am". She just sings the song as she feels it is meant to be sung. And I'll add an even more extraordinary item for you to consider, to show how unique she is. She has the innate ability not only to sing a song as emotionally as the song deserves but to be able to communicate those same emotions to the listener. As I have noted above, I have been following her career a long time and have listened to every interview she has given and every documentary about her and every performance she has ever given. What stands stands out for me is how a very shy and humble girl in her normal life, can be transformed into the perfect vehicle for the song she has chosen to sing, once she starts to sing. Although the gift of singing and all her performances appear to be effortless, Angelina works very hard to ensure that the one she is going to record reflects what she sees as the correct way to meld both lyrics and melody. If you go to th-cam.com/channels/hM_lpT4shdnsez93QMJPig.html you will find many rehearsals where, not only do you get to see her rehearsing but being the "ordinary" girl she is (if indeed one is able to apply that adjective to her). Most of her performances are recorded in her home studio,either with background music or a single guitar. Most are done in one take. She treats the whole thing as a hobby. As we would have said when I was young. "There is no 'side' to her" She is completely transparent to the world. Perhaps you would like to go back a few years and work forward. By doing so, you will come to the realisation that she is "unique" and I don't use that word loosely. There is truly no other singer who has her versatility and sheer ability to communicate the emotions of a song to her listeners. I doubt there is another singer who works so hard to to ensure that, when she sings the song,it is sung in such a way that her listener becomes enmeshed in the emotions So, here a few recordings for you to consider. age 6 - First visit to a Recording Studio:I who have nothing: th-cam.com/video/RjQZKBpVaes/w-d-xo.html age 7 - Norway's Got Talent - First Audition: Gloomy Sunday: th-cam.com/video/8q7MqdFoibI/w-d-xo.html age 7 - Norway’s Got Talent - Judges' Cut-Off:I’m a fool to want you th-cam.com/video/LXknLZDoRVQ/w-d-xo.html age 7 - Norway's Got Talent - Semi Final: Bang Bang: th-cam.com/video/cSEO3IMVtCI/w-d-xo.html age 8 - Norway's Got Talent - Final: Summertime: th-cam.com/video/443pBSpx5B4/w-d-xo.html age 8 - Concert in Sweden - "I'll be there":th-cam.com/video/VJIwvWdoO3o/w-d-xo.html age 9 - Charity Concert: At last: th-cam.com/video/819bQ9I-T-g/w-d-xo.html age 9 - It’s Now or Never - th-cam.com/video/hli1fuk8zQQ/w-d-xo.html age 10 - Norwegian TV Production: Every time we say goodbye: th-cam.com/video/KRSI8HmTHJA/w-d-xo.html One thing which several of the new reactors - and those who have returned to her have decided, is to follow her career from the start. If you should decide to do the same, go to Rusty Shackleford's website and look at the list he has compiled of Angelina songs in chronological order.Rusty Shackleford - Chronological order th-cam.com/channels/55am_6Y5-Fj4ri8xOInstA.html
This is just the beginning with Angelina. The beginning of your discovery of her, but not her beginning by any means. You could probably tell in just that 3 minutes that there is something special about this girl. Just 13 years old here in this performance, but she has been singing like a pro since she was 7. Her roots are in Jazz, but she cover so many genres, and has many styles of singing. You have a lot more to hear from Angelina's library. As others have recommended, a good one to do early in your reactions to her is "I Put a Spell on You" (9 years old)... it's crazy good. ...And I always like to leave this little bio for people just finding her so that you can get a little background and learn about her kind and caring soul.... *Angelina Jordan* - Angelina Jordan was born Jan 10 2006 in Oslo, Norway. She is currently 14 - She began singing at the age of one and a half - At 2 or 3 she discovered Jazz through her grandmother and started studying all the greats from Jazz history with youtube videos. - *Why Angelina always sings barefoot* - When Angelina was 6 years old, she was traveling with her grandmother and met a poor girl with no shoes trying to make money on the streets. They talked for a while and discussed their dreams. It was cold and the girl had scars on her feet. Seeing this, Angelina took off her shoes and gave them to the girl. The girl thanked her and told Angelina she would pray for her every day. That day Angelina made a vow to always sing barefoot until all the children of the world could have shoes. To this day, whenever Angelina is performing in public, she sings barefoot as a way to remember that little girl and to remind us that there are less fortunate people in the world that could use our help. Angelina holds so true to this promise that she has sung outdoors in Norway, in december... barefoot. She has sung at a dinner with ex-pres Obama... barefoot. She went on AGT (possibly the biggest stage in the world)...bare foot. She made a promise at 6 years old, and has stuck strong to it for years. That takes a special kind of person. - She has always been the driving force behind her own singing career. It was her that asked her mother to take her to Norways Got Talent, where she auditioned at 7 years old and went on to win the whole show at just 8 years old. - In an interview after the show, when asked what she was going to do with the prize money, the 8 year old replied, "I would like to give it to orphans that need clothes and shoes" - When Angelina was 9 years old she became the youngest published author in Norway, when she wrote a book about the story of why she doesn't wear shoes when she sings. She donated proceeds from the sales of the book to help children in need. - The reason you may not have heard of her is because her parents are very protective of her childhood. They do not want her to be thrust into stardom before she has a chance to grow up as a normal child, and finish her education. They allow her to do a few select shows (mainly private and charity events) with a couple public shows every year when she is out of school. Her mother said in an interview that they have turned down 90% of the offers that come in. I have heard they have turned down offers from many major record labels and even disney. - Angelina has covered more than 120 songs and over 65 artists in the last 6 years. She always selects the songs herself... everything ranging from old classic jazz to modern pop. She is able to change her voice to match any song she sings and make it her own. (she can cover Amy Winehouse and Lana del Rey like nobody else) - Angelina has collaborated with some very big names over the last few years... Quincy Jones, Mark Ronson, David Foster, Alan Walker and many more. All of which heard her and were blown away by her talent. - Angelina has written three of her own original songs: "What is Life", "Shield" and "Oslo". (all are amazing...all can be found on youtube) In summary, Angelina Jordan is destined to be one of the greatest singers to have ever lived. This is just my opinion, but if you listen closely to any of her stuff you will hear the greatness. She sings with a natural style. There is no acting, no showing off, there are no unnecessary runs, or big belty notes just for the purpose of saying "hey look at me sing". She once said "when I sing I go into a magical world in my head", and you can always hear the results of that. When Angelina sings it is pure soul, pure emotion, pure music.
Rusty, I've been waiting to see that you made here! Thanks for all the detailed information you provide. I know as a fan I appreciate it and I'm sure others do too....Angelina fan for life!
👩🏻🎤🎵🌎⭐️🇳🇴❤️ Angelina was 13 here. She started singing when she was one and a half, and won Norway's Got Talent when she was 8. "What a unique voice...I can't even think of anybody to compare her to." You are correct, Angelina is unique and incomparable. She is also the most versatile and most expressive singer I've ever heard. I hope you will continue to react to her. If you do, you will discover untold riches.
Since you are a Queen fan...Angelina Jordan does The Show Must Go On! Welcome to the rabbit hole...this young lady is truly phenomenal...you will see her fans will follow and are always polite...thank you for your reaction and I'm really glad you enjoyed it!
Great reaction. She is 14 but was 13 in this video. She has done around 130 covers. I would suggest Yellow Brick Road which she did next on AGT. Then go to I Put a Spell on You, the black and white version when she was 9. Rusty will probably be giving you her history and a play list. Thank you
You'll be getting plenty of recommendations from the many AJ fans. Everything she does is amazing and she has such an incredible history at such a young age. I'll leave it up to the other devoted AJ fans to clue you in about her and her life. You're going to be hooked on the young angel with the hypnotic voice and Mona Lisa smile. Enjoy.
Welcome to Angelina's world. - She won Norwegian talents at the age of 8, and is predicted to become the next superstar! She is also known for being able to adjust the voice to which genre she sings. She has approx. 130 covers on TH-cam + 3 originals. Angelina Jordan - Date of birth: January 10, 2006 (age 14 years), Born and raised in Oslo, Norway; this world-renowned singer has earned fantastic reviews for the amazing breadth, depth and maturity of her vocal talent that simply belies her young age. Something you might have noticed is that Angelina always performs barefoot!!! When Angelina was 6 years old, she met a homeless girl around her age when she was traveling in the Middle East. The girl did not have any shoes, and Angelina says her feet were scarred. Angelina gave the girl her own shoes. Angelina then “vowed never to appear on stage again wearing shoes until all the world’s children had them.” She keeps that promise to this day, as she says that little girl “is always in my heart.” - Angelina said she asked the little girl what her dream was, and the girl responded that she wanted to be a doctor. Angelina told her to “never give up.” In return, the girl told Angelina she would pray for her, and asked her to “remember me.” She might as well sing in a bad cellphone microphone, without a microphone, or to collaborate with professional musicians. She does not need any autotune or digital aids to sing. It is real song in an otherwise polished world. She just sings because it's her passion. Angelina’s videos have received over "over 600 Million views on youtube & over 2 Billion views on Facebook."
Amazingly, her passion for music began at just one-and- a-half years of age when Angelina first saw Whitney Houston on TH-cam performing I Will Always Love You. Whitney - and later Billie Holiday, Dinah Washington - became her first major musical influences.
At the age of seven, Angelina auditioned for Norway’s Got Talent performing Billie Holiday’s Gloomy Sunday. She won the competition with the show drawing record TV audiences. Not surprisingly, throughout her rising career, Angelina has featured in prominent media outlets including TIME, CNN, BBC, and People while also performing on the U.S. network TV shows Little Big Shots and The View.
In 2016, Avicii chose Angelina for the vocals on his worldwide Volvo commercial campaign, a brilliant cover of Nina Simone’s Feeling Good. As well as singing before Nobel Peace Prize Laureates, charitable causes to which Angelina has given her talent include the Rainforest Alliance at the American Museum of Natural History in New York and Ein Herz für Kinder in Berlin where she helped raise over 21 Million Euros for children and families in need. Everyone in the music industry knows who she is, but the family and herself want her to grow up as normal as possible. Among other things, they said no to Disney!
This multi-talented singing prodigy has also written a successful, illustrated children’s book in her native Norway making Angelina the youngest published author in the country’s history. Today she is 14 years old and has over 126 covers and 3 originals on TH-cam. She has already managed to collaborate with the biggest in the music industry, and is considered to be a future megarstar.The family and herself want to take it easy in the musical development because of her young age. NOTE! Angelina is independent and owns the rights herself. Angelina Jordan INC. She and her family take it easy because of her young age. Angelina wants total ownership over her creativity, without compromise. She / family said no to Disney, among other things. She attends some major foundrising concerts. Rumor has it that she is coming up with her own album this year. Why didn't Angelina Jordan win AGT champions? It's because she refused to sign with them and they told her she wasn't gonna win if she didn't. Well. She didn't win. and how to determine the best talent of a singer, magician or dance group, but I think they were aware of this, but still wanted her to attend to bring as many viewers as possible. Then there was no way she could win. The entire acclaimed music industry knows who she is, and she was invited to sing for Quincy Jones during his 85th birthday at O2 Arena London th-cam.com/video/OMkwoqUNNkE/w-d-xo.html . She has also collaborated with David Foster, Gene Simmons, Alan Walker. In addition to singing at the Nobel Prize concert 8 year old. This is just something from her résumé at 14 years old and the list is much longer. So it was really AGT that she was lucky that she showed up. But as I said, AGT is just a TV show and not a competition. Calling it a Talent Competition is too stupid. The only thing that was real is all the amazing talents we saw and heard. Note! She is also Norway's youngest author with published book 9 years old!
Hi. Greetings from Norway. Thank you for reacting to Angelina's first Wonderful AGT Champions performance . I'm always happy when I see new people discover / react to her for the first time. She was 13years old in this video. She is 14 years old now. I hope you will continue to react to her soon. You will have a lot of "wow moments" if you continue on your reaction journey to her. 😇 I first discovered Angelina Jordan Astar when she first participated in Norway's got talent 2014, when she was 7 and 8 years old. ( here is a video clip from the finals: Angelina Jordan Astar 8yo Wins Norway's Got Talent! Full Final Show: th-cam.com/video/iBVe68xYEpc/w-d-xo.html ) I still remember that I was shocked in a positive way, and I have ever since that time been a fan. A fan of a child. I wouldn't believed it if you had asked me 10 years ago. I have never been interested in the jazz music genre , but Angelina's interpretations of old jazz music classics has "opened my eyes" for that kind of music for sure, and in a way "touched me". In the past year she has posted some great covers of modern music as well. She has released some original songs. One of them is her song Shield, which has already been covered in "The Voice" Norway song competition. ( You can find the cover of Angelina's song "Shield" here: th-cam.com/video/bdUaGvdPLuE/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/oLr9PBwg8X4/w-d-xo.html ) Here is a interview with english subtitles from norwegian tv short time after she won Norway's got talent when she was 8 where she tell about why she perform barefoot on stage: th-cam.com/video/A-OKLslO74Y/w-d-xo.html The english subtitles is correct translated. Here is my personal recommendation to some more performances by Angelina Jordan which may be a suggestions to listen to as well in the future.

Welcome to “The World Of Angelina Jordan Astar” (full name). “The Barefoot Singer With The Velvet Voice And A Mona Lisa Smile”. From her audition on Norway’s Got Talent (2014 - age 7- Gloomy Sunday "Billy Holiday") through the finale’ on America’s Got Talent The Champions (2020 - age 13 - Goodbye Yellow Brick Road "Sir Elton John") and the 130+ videos in between you will not be disappointed. My personal favorite is her cover of Lana Del Rey's "Born To Die". You will find she rewrites many lyrics to make them "Family Friendly" When she is older she may do the first verse about murdering someone!?! She is the youngest published author in Norway. Angelina wrote and her Grandmother illustrated a book about why she sings barefoot. She was on a trip to Iran where her grandmother is from and met a street girl weighing people for money. Angelina sat and talk with the girl. Angelina asked the girl what she wanted to be when she grew up and the girl replied, a Doctor but that it could never happen. Angelina told her to never give up hope. The girl complimented Angelina on her shoes and Angelina noticed her scarred bare feet so she gave them to her, and the little girl told Angelina she would pray for her every day. Angelina sings barefoot to remind the world that there are still children in need.
great reaction. you just watched the best female singer of this generation. You'll see... the outfit is based on a paint her grandma did. She was 13 years old on this song. You have to react to I PUT A SPELL ON YOU to understand what Angelina is. You soon will realize you want to react to Angelina more and more. Prepare to be amaze over and over. Her super power is to improve known songs and make them her own. You will forget about the original singers. Welcome to the Angelina club. She is 14 years old now and around 6 feet tall. Angelina is amazing. She sings barefoot because when she was traveling through a poor country when she saw a little girl like her without shoes and she gave her the ones she was wearing. She won't wear shoes when she sings until all children have shoes. This is the list, in chronological order of many of her songs (from super fan Rusty Shackleford's List): th-cam.com/play/PL2v8kgVeo4EbYDVnRwObjETfWpXbzbgIO.html Please react to: I PUT A SPELL ON YOU (the studio version, 9 years old) th-cam.com/video/nwFloCPXzCs/w-d-xo.html BACK TO BLACK (Amy Winehouse, 10 years old) th-cam.com/video/LbXUKzOxACU/w-d-xo.html BORN TO DIE (Lana del Rey, 12 years old) th-cam.com/video/DNU-HcLuO_I/w-d-xo.html I'D RATHER GO BLIND (Etta James, 12 years) th-cam.com/video/pK8mMXQb3_I/w-d-xo.html STAY (Rihanna, 12 years) th-cam.com/video/_GSVPvCy3Yg/w-d-xo.html YOUNG AND BEAUTIFUL (Lana del Rey) th-cam.com/video/3prGThnLil4/w-d-xo.html A MILLION YEARS AGO (Adele, 12 years old) th-cam.com/video/QHLtZQ3sIwE/w-d-xo.html I HAVE NOTHING (Whitney Houston song, 13 years old) th-cam.com/video/eTcvvO6B3Io/w-d-xo.html and my personal favorite as well as many other fans, this super soulful song: I'M STILL HOLDING OUT FOR YOU (amazing, mind blowing, 10 years old) th-cam.com/video/Dv8mjCh5iiE/w-d-xo.html
True facts: She was 13 years old when she performed this song; she made the arrangement herself; she WON Norways Got Talent at the age of 8; she has done some amazing things like being invited to sing at Quincy Jones' 85th birthday concert, she sang for the Nobel Prize winners, she sang at the Brilliant Minds Gala in front of many important people as exPresident Obama... Her track record at her age (she turned 14 this January) is outstanding! She's the voice of this generation, specially when it comes to jazz. Just check her out on TH-cam and be prepared to be amazed! Just sayin' So to be clear, Angelina has been pretty protected by her family all these years, so she can develop her career slowly but still continue her education and just enjoying her childhood. That' s probably why not that many people are aware of her GIFT. And I don't say that lightly, she HAS A GIFT. P.S.. She designed her outfit based on a pattern of her grandma's paintings. She is a humble, kind and generous person who has sund for many, many fundraisers and charity concerts. Well, now I'm rambling about her. Just check her other performances in her official and cover channel ;)
@@Apprentice777JetSet - Exactly!! She was 7 when entered the competition. When the finals came along and she won with her song in the finals, she was 8. But this is NO matter: she could have won the competition at 6!! She is awesome to have entered at the age of 7 years old and won the whole thing and now 6-7 years later she is an absolute "Force to be reckoned" with! No lie. There is no competition for her, maybe Elvis!
Thanks for reacting to this superstar to be! She is exceptional in many ways and it will be so interesting to follow her career. I would recommend her "You're Just to Good to Be True", I Can't Help Falling in Love", "My Baby Shot Me Down"
The good thing about the show requiring a two minutes version is that she could change the meaning of the lyrics just by selecting certain parts. It would have been weird for a 13 y/o girl to sing “Mama, just killed a man.” Instead, her version could be about someone struggling with a life-threatening illness instead of murder and trial. It’s very cleaver. She has done similar things with other covers.
She's 13. Won Norway's Got Talent at 7. She's a prodigy, and a genius. Her covers are masterpieces. Check out Lana del Rey's Young and Beautiful. Or Adele's A Million Years Ago. But you should probably start with her 9 year old version of I Put A Spell On You (you better be sitting down).
Thanks for your beautiful first reaction, Brad. It's hard to react to an interpretation like this, you can only be impressed by the fact that Angelina at only 13 years old was able to face a challenge with such an iconic song as this and made her become her own song, with a fantastic reworking, a calm, powerful and terribly emotional interpretation. I understand your feelings very well, I listened to Angelina in this her Bohemian for at least a hundred times and it still takes me by the throat and leaves me upset. For me she is perhaps the most multifaceted and talented singer there is at the moment, if you think she is just turned 14 years. If you continue in her discovery, and I guarantee you that you have material galore, you will be constantly surprised and excited, because Angelina has that ability, with her slowed song and her soft voice, to go digging into the soul to make you move, which is really rare and she does it every time, since she had 6 years. Angelina is not only what you saw in this perfect performance, she is much more, even very different, but everything she does is at a superlative level, she sang about 130 different interpretations, including covers, songs written for her and her originals written between 11 and 12 years old, if they seem enough
Great reaction, Angelina is at level of vocal artistry seldom if ever seen for a young , besides her other talents , She is Norway's youngest published author at around 9 to 10 years old, she plays , piano, violin, flute, and guitar . Angelina does her musical arrangements and has been often observed directing professional musicians playing for her as to what she wants in a song. she is always in command when she performs in a very humble respectful manner to band members. Angelina is like no other I heave ever witnessed in her many abilities for one so young .she touches one right down to their heart and soul when she sings. (Angelina a short history ); Angelina has been singing since she was 1.5 years old (18 months started singing a Whitney Huston song , video on you tube of this here is the linkth-cam.com/video/VJjG68Dfr-8/w-d-xo.html at 1:55 on this video is her at 1.5 years old ) later she was taken by jazz and started singing jazz classics as her grandmother introduced her to jazz tunes. Her singing is her life and her passion . her mother tried to get her to sing nursery songs and she just flat out refused to involve her self in that nonsense. She is her own driving force no one dictates to her what she does in her singing or preparations, it is all her 110%. the following are her own songs . Won Norway's got talent at 7 to 8 years old has over 125 videos on line plus three of her own compositions and two that were written for her to sing , the first 3 she wrote and arranged herself, the last two were written for her to sing 1, Shield ,, th-cam.com/video/lQtUbVKb0vs/w-d-xo.html 2. Oslo,, th-cam.com/video/6PsVu4iNmX0/w-d-xo.html 3. What Is Life,, .th-cam.com/video/Bv0r77KN7RA/w-d-xo.html 4. Above the water,, th-cam.com/video/SC3F0bKKk3U/w-d-xo.html 5. Song for A ("A" standing for Angelina) ,, th-cam.com/video/Bo3mhxPM-uA/w-d-xo.html Angelina had over 500 million views of her singing videos before her performance on AGT The Champions now her views are in the billions . Angelina was well known all over the world except in America up until her AGT Champions , mini concert. She sings bare foot since she was 6 years old to honor a bare foot orphan girl she met around her own age around 6 years old whom had no shoes and had scars on her feet, she was weighing people on a bathroom scale for money to support her and her siblings. Angelina at six years old took her shoes off and gave them to this poor girl, and Angelina has performed on stage in honor of the pledge she made to her not to sing on stage with shoes on from then on . Angelina has honored that pledge for last 8 years . Angelina takes on a different voice for each song she covers to give homage to the song, and never tries to show off her vocal abilities but always gives each song its due respect. Angelina has a 5 octave range and her low note ability is just mind blowing for a pre-teen or now at just a mere 14 years as of Jan. 10 ,2020. Angelina can sing any genre and excel at it many times better than the original artist.
Brad, I don't know if you respond to our comments but, in a word, Angelina is a treasure and she connects straight to our hearts and souls. Come aboard! There's room on the train for you.
Both Quincy Jones and David Foster have gushed over Angelina,so yeah she's special.She was 13 here,how about her black and white version of I Put a Spell on you,at 9 yrs of age,for a guaranteed mindblower. th-cam.com/video/nwFloCPXzCs/w-d-xo.html
Too late!... Even if you won't believe it and if you are in denial about it: Only listen to one song sung by Angelina Jordan and she has bewitched you! From now on you are assimilated in her entourage! Resistence is futil... ;-) Every time it's a pleasure to watch people reacting especially the first time to Angelina Jordon and I hope to see more of your reactions on Angelina Jordan - I'm sure I will and you will discover a huge pile of WOW-moments ;-) All the other things like recomendations, playlists, her web site and so on you can read in the comments of the megafans like Fernando F., Rusty, ... ;-) Thanks a billion for your nice reaction! ...and see you soon with your next AJ reactions :-D Only a little Question: When (NOT IF ;-) ) you react to her cover "I put a spell on you" (th-cam.com/video/nwFloCPXzCs/w-d-xo.html - btw. she made most of her cover arrangements by herself!) it would be fun to react in the same reaction video IN ADVANCE to the original from Screemin' Jay Hawkins (from 1956 - th-cam.com/video/7kGPhpvqtOc/w-d-xo.html) than you will find out that Angelinas cover is a real tribute to Jay Hawkins :-D
She does a cover like no one else on the planet. She re-writes and/or re-arranges every song she sings to give it that "Angelina Touch". She knows the exact formula of how much she needs to "Angelina-ize" her voice, tone, inflection, emotion, persona and volume with different proportions to perfectly fit every song she sings! She has mastered the art of making her version of a song unique, yet showing complete respect for the Original.
Every time I hear Angelina sing, I picture her stepping out of an old black & white movie, to take us back in time, so we can fall in love with these genuine masterpieces again ❤️ 💚 💙 💜 Great reaction, & if you haven't reacted to any of her earlier works, I put a spell on you, when she was 9 years old, it will blow your mind, & you will be definitely hooked on her talent!!
Great reaction! Angela Jordan is a “legend” in the making...she captivates and hypnotises you when she sings. The variety of music that she sings is only matched by the variety of her natural styles and vocal abilities. She doesn’t do tricks, use dramatic stage setups or put on a “theatrical act”, she sings needing only her voice, one instrument and a song. This is the sign of a legendary singer. I also noticed that you love “Queen...Freddy Mercury”. Who, that is worth breathing doresn’t? Right? Well Angelina covered another one of their songs that is one of my favorites of hers. It really stirs a lot of emotion. Missing the talent of Freddy Mercury, feeling such sorrow over his death and sadness that there will never be another performer like him. Her voice is so strong and brings out so much emotion that I think that you will love it, here is the link....”The Show Must Go On” th-cam.com/video/6NJv02ot5jg/w-d-xo.html
She was 13 when she did Bohemian Rhapsody. And now it’s time to get your head bent out of shape. Watch her arrangement of I Put a Spell On You (Black and White version). She did it when she was 9 years old. It will really make for not getting a more rocking version of Bohemian Rhapsody. Also Angelina fans love to watch reactors react to it just for shock value.
Welcome to the Wonder World of Angelina she won Norway got Talent at age of 7 She was 13 Singing Bohemian Rhapsody Thanks for honest reaction 👍 Here are some here are some points about Angelina Jordan A-star: Day after NGT 5000.000 she got Views, now to day 2.500.000.000 Views in 6 years.

Welcome to the world of AJ!! Black and white version of "I put a spell on you" from screaming Jay Hawkins R.I.P. make sure you are sitting down when she belts that out at "9" years old!!
Good reaction to 13 years old Angelina's outstanding arrangement and performance! For a second impact I would suggest "I put a spell on you", the black and white version, that she performed at 9 years old as a tribute to Screamin' Jay Hawkins 😉
Very nice reaction. Be prepared for a awesome journey if you go on. And you should. There are tons of comments below, all great. Have fun, and thanks. : )
I never was a fan of that song, but I can listen to this version. Meanwhile, check out the Black and White video version of her singing "I put a spell on you"
I used to be a bit apprehensive when a reacter started a video pointing out that they're a huge fan of a song or artist that Angelina is covering. Now it just makes me happy, because I know it's very likely that they will love what Angelina does. (She doesn't always change up songs as much as she did here. When she's not singing over a backing track, she tends to slow down the song, strip down the instrumentation, and jazz up the vocals. And even when she _is_ singing over a backing track, it's not uncommon for people to come away feeling like she has sung the song better than the original artist. Her voice is _crazy_ good, and she can make it sound completely different - and yet still obviously _her_ - from one song to the next. You ain't heard nothin' yet…) If you like her runs, her next song on AGT:C, "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road", is also pretty insane in that regard. (Based largely on Sara Bareilles' cover of the song, the general outlines of the arrangement turned out to be pretty similar to this one here. It was impressive, but did not garner her a spot in the top 5 in the final results.) As someone has already said (essentially), you can almost pick any of her covers (or originals) at random and probably end up impressed. But if you'd like to find other songs she's covered that you already like (including another Queen song), take a look at Rusty Shackleford's extensive (but still partial) chronological AJ-favorites playlist: th-cam.com/play/PL2v8kgVeo4EbYDVnRwObjETfWpXbzbgIO.html When you're ready, go back to the (almost) beginning with her _Norske Talenter_ [Norway's Got Talent] stuff. All four of her performances on that show are required listening (in order, please - and be sure to react to the version of "I'm a Fool to Want You" from Rusty's playlist: all the other videos of that performance are edited to remove the entire bridge section of the song [because presumably that's how it originally aired on TV]). Finally, as many others have already pointed out, she was 13 here (recorded last fall). I don't know how old you thought she was, but I've heard estimates as high as "mid-20s". (!) She's always looked at least a bit older than she is (at least since she was, say, 9). But what will blow your mind is how she consistently _sounds_ like someone _twice_ her age. It's not as noticeable, I suppose, now that she looks older, but back when she was 8 or 9, or 10… or 11… or 12… well, it'll mess with your head. (This is why many of her fans tend to obsessively cite her age along with each song recommendation. This is usually the first question people will ask, if they don't already know, as they hear her start to sing.)
Enjoy the journey, I believe Angelia has 125+ videos out there! Angelina had her hands into making the outfit from cloth with prints of her grandmother's art! Angelina was 13 here (she turned 14 in January). She won Norway's Got Talent at the was between the age of 7 and 8!
Good reaction Brad now you only have 130 / videos to listen to that Angelina has recorded have fun you should take you only a couple years to do one a week
Great reaction! The best part about it is that the voice you fell in love with is just one of her many voices. There is only one Angelina, but she can adapt to and embrace any musical genre that is inspiring her at that particular moment. The core of her musical being is with classic jazz standards, but she can do soul, R&D, pop, country, EDM, "adult contemporary", classical/folk, etc. Do you know any other 13 year old who has had not one but two EDM (or related style) acts compose songs for her to be the voice? I don't! 😂 One of them, "Above the Water" by TRXD can be streamed or purchased on the major services. Know any 12 year olds who were personally asked by Quincey Jones to perform "Fly Me To the Moon" (one of the all time great jazz classics, for which the seminal version was recorded in 1964 and arranged by... yep, Quincy Jones) at his 85th birthday celebration at the O2 in London? She has also written three originals: Oslo, What is Life and (this one also available to be streamed on the major services) Shield. My favourite from her 2014 (7-8 years old) breakthrough Norway's Got Talent run to Victory is "Bang Bang" but most will recommend "Gloomy Sunday" which is cool because it's her audition performance. Bang Bang was a big leap forward in confidence, stage presence and general polish, imho, so it depends on what interests you. Probably the most shocking of all her covers is "I Put a Spell on You" from shortly after she turned 9 (the B&W studio recording). It will literally blow your mind, in part because it is literally miles and miles from the voice you just fell in love with on AGT. For raw power, check out the outdoor version of "It's a Man's World", where she subdues and tames the Norwegian Armed Forces military orchestra. To see Angelina Whitney her face off (and yours), "I Have Nothing" should be your detination. Yes, Angelina's home base is the lower register but Whitney's range is also within her broader kingdom. If you feel like crying, two of her covers that have done that to me regularly are "Cry Me a River" (outdoor festival performance) and "Every Time We Say Goodbye" (on the roof of a building in downtown Oslo). And if you. care to have your soul ripped open by Angelina so that she can expose all of its more sensitive bits, put on some quality headphones, dim the lights and check out her cover of Wicked Game (this one: th-cam.com/video/5IAMF4FDfw4/w-d-xo.html ). It also features her piano playing -- minimalist but beautiful. Oh, if you are wondering why the ages 7 and 8 seemingly being used interchangeably for her Norway's Got Talent performances, and similarly 13 and 14 for AGT Champs, in both cases the season started with the younger age and finished with the older age.
Watch Shield! It is her own music. She is the best singer right now! with the pandemic going on she is able to make life nice! also watch her video fly me to the moon acoustic version with the white horse. it is so awesome!
It is funny younger generations mention listening to this type of music at a coffee shop. Older generations think of a speakeasy type bar, filled with smoke and a jazz singer on stage.. :-)
Angelina is a legend in the making, She is already one of the greats and she is easily THE best singer alive today. Angelina always sings barefoot, She sings barefoot because she met a young girl when she was 6 in Iran, the girl was very poor and had no shoes, Angelina gave the little girl her shoes and promised to sing barefoot until every child has shoes.
Awesome reaction, welcome to the world of AJ, got yourself a new sub. On comparisons, Nora Jones and Amy Winehouse is often mentioned, but yes - she is quite unique, and have my voices :)
She's only 13! I'm sure you're aware of that, by now, but I need to keep saying it in order for that to sink in. She won Norway's Got Talent when she was only 7! Another fact I need to let sink in still.
Her new song that she composed "Million Miles" at what 15 or 16? puts the entire Music industry on notice, The Slop that they tried to feed people last awards is OUT! She will set the bar and 90% of them will not be able to get close to being good enough.
She is 13 makes her own clothes does not wear shoes because she met a girl with no shoes.Also wrote a book about it. She won at 7 years old i forget where she's from Norway? Got Talent.She also sang yellow brick road America's Got Talent.Find her way back in time when she was little.Amzaing singer!
Hi Brad, welcome to the world of young singers blowing your socks off! Many more out there, Daneliya Tuleshova is one worth a listen, as is Jade from Holland, and Angelica Hale.
Other material from her: I Put A Spell On You 2015 (Screaming Jay Hawkins): th-cam.com/video/nwFloCPXzCs/w-d-xo.html Yellow Brick Road (Elton John), AGT round 2 : th-cam.com/video/NVRWYEk8T3A/w-d-xo.html She has some 130+ songs on TH-cam, a real treasure trove to explore.
Angelina was 13 when this show was recorded last October and she does all her own arrangements. You should hear her when she was 9. Her rearrangement & performance of Screamin Jay Hawkins "I Put a Spell on You" is a totally different mind blowing masterpiece => th-cam.com/video/nwFloCPXzCs/w-d-xo.html
Thank you for reacting to angelina Jordan. She is just an amazing young singer and she did a very beautiful version of this song. She has about 125 cover songs and she also have 5 original songs where she wrote three of the original songs herself. She has done another queen song called «the show must go on» by queen . Here is the link . th-cam.com/video/6NJv02ot5jg/w-d-xo.html
Thank you for this reaction. Every time it leaves me with shivers down the spine and tears in my eyes. Love you our angel!!!!!
Queen posted on their social medias after the performance: WOW,what a rendition of bohemian rhapsody =)
Thank you for your reaction. I have read through the comments so let me just say that I echo what has already been said. IMHO she is the BEST.
Angelina is a Vocal Goddess.
You have a new subscriber! Thank you for discovering and reacting my favourite singer. Although yuu did not show it in your reaction, you may have heard that Simon said that he had never heard that version before. He, was correct. Angelina re-arranged it for the performance. She does this with many of her cover songs. Her fans call it "Angelinafying". Are you aware that she received the Golden Buzzer from Heidi Klum? This took her to the Final. performance. The lady who first stood and clapped at the end of Angelina's performance was her maternal grandmother, Mery Zamani. On her right was Angelina's mother, Sara Astar, then Juliette,her sister and last her uncle, Michael Astar who is also her Manager.
My introduction to Angelina was on her first appearance at Norway's Got Talent and I didn't expect much from a 7 year old. Just a cute little girl, all nervous, rushing the song in parts, hesitating and then stumbling over or forgetting her words and generally acting her age and doing her best to get through a childish song like "Twinkle, twinkle little star". What did I see? Well, it was a seven year old child, with wild hair and gaps in her mouth, where there once were Baby teeth. And that was when the normal perception ended and things turned upside down. She confidently answered the questions put to her by a Judge. Declared she was going to sing a song by the legendary Billie Holiday. Gestured off stage for the technician to start the music and then started singing. The body of the 7 year old was still there but the voice wasn't. Or was itt? I was surprised then and that surprise is still with me, some six years later.
I have followed her career since I saw that first video on TH-cam and in the six years she has been singing publicly she has mastered many musical genres, including Blues, Country, Disco, Jazz,Pop, R&B and Soul, EDM and Rock and covered songs first performed by many famous singers,like Adele, Whitney Houston, Nancy and Frank Sinatra, Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald, Lana del Ray, Gloria Gaynor, Elvis Presley, Louis Armstrong and many others. What is more extraordinary is that she takes ownership of every song she sings while still paying respect to the original. You will notice that she never goes into unnecessary theatrics. Never sings those high or low notes unless they are absolutely necessary. Never projects herself in any performance which says "look how good I am". She just sings the song as she feels it is meant to be sung. And I'll add an even more extraordinary item for you to consider, to show how unique she is. She has the innate ability not only to sing a song as emotionally as the song deserves but to be able to communicate those same emotions to the listener.
As I have noted above, I have been following her career a long time and have listened to every interview she has given and every documentary about her and every performance she has ever given. What stands stands out for me is how a very shy and humble girl in her normal life, can be transformed into the perfect vehicle for the song she has chosen to sing, once she starts to sing.
Although the gift of singing and all her performances appear to be effortless, Angelina works very hard to ensure that the one she is going to record reflects what she sees as the correct way to meld both lyrics and melody. If you go to th-cam.com/channels/hM_lpT4shdnsez93QMJPig.html you will find many rehearsals where, not only do you get to see her rehearsing but being the "ordinary" girl she is (if indeed one is able to apply that adjective to her). Most of her performances are recorded in her home studio,either with background music or a single guitar. Most are done in one take. She treats the whole thing as a hobby. As we would have said when I was young. "There is no 'side' to her" She is completely transparent to the world.
Perhaps you would like to go back a few years and work forward. By doing so, you will come to the realisation that she is "unique" and I don't use that word loosely. There is truly no other singer who has her versatility and sheer ability to communicate the emotions of a song to her listeners. I doubt there is another singer who works so hard to to ensure that, when she sings the song,it is sung in such a way that her listener becomes enmeshed in the emotions
So, here a few recordings for you to consider.

One thing which several of the new reactors - and those who have returned to her have decided, is to follow her career from the start. If you should decide to do the same, go to Rusty Shackleford's website and look at the list he has compiled of Angelina songs in chronological order.Rusty Shackleford - Chronological order th-cam.com/channels/55am_6Y5-Fj4ri8xOInstA.html
Welcome to Angelina’s world, you never get enough of that voice 👏👍❤️
This is just the beginning with Angelina. The beginning of your discovery of her, but not her beginning by any means. You could probably tell in just that 3 minutes that there is something special about this girl. Just 13 years old here in this performance, but she has been singing like a pro since she was 7. Her roots are in Jazz, but she cover so many genres, and has many styles of singing. You have a lot more to hear from Angelina's library. As others have recommended, a good one to do early in your reactions to her is "I Put a Spell on You" (9 years old)... it's crazy good.
...And I always like to leave this little bio for people just finding her so that you can get a little background and learn about her kind and caring soul....
*Angelina Jordan*
- Angelina Jordan was born Jan 10 2006 in Oslo, Norway. She is currently 14
- She began singing at the age of one and a half
- At 2 or 3 she discovered Jazz through her grandmother and started studying all the greats from Jazz history with youtube videos.
- *Why Angelina always sings barefoot* - When Angelina was 6 years old, she was traveling with her grandmother and met a poor girl with no shoes trying to make money on the streets. They talked for a while and discussed their dreams. It was cold and the girl had scars on her feet. Seeing this, Angelina took off her shoes and gave them to the girl. The girl thanked her and told Angelina she would pray for her every day. That day Angelina made a vow to always sing barefoot until all the children of the world could have shoes. To this day, whenever Angelina is performing in public, she sings barefoot as a way to remember that little girl and to remind us that there are less fortunate people in the world that could use our help.
Angelina holds so true to this promise that she has sung outdoors in Norway, in december... barefoot. She has sung at a dinner with ex-pres Obama... barefoot. She went on AGT (possibly the biggest stage in the world)...bare foot. She made a promise at 6 years old, and has stuck strong to it for years. That takes a special kind of person.
- She has always been the driving force behind her own singing career. It was her that asked her mother to take her to Norways Got Talent, where she auditioned at 7 years old and went on to win the whole show at just 8 years old.
- In an interview after the show, when asked what she was going to do with the prize money, the 8 year old replied, "I would like to give it to orphans that need clothes and shoes"
- When Angelina was 9 years old she became the youngest published author in Norway, when she wrote a book about the story of why she doesn't wear shoes when she sings. She donated proceeds from the sales of the book to help children in need.
- The reason you may not have heard of her is because her parents are very protective of her childhood. They do not want her to be thrust into stardom before she has a chance to grow up as a normal child, and finish her education. They allow her to do a few select shows (mainly private and charity events) with a couple public shows every year when she is out of school. Her mother said in an interview that they have turned down 90% of the offers that come in. I have heard they have turned down offers from many major record labels and even disney.
- Angelina has covered more than 120 songs and over 65 artists in the last 6 years. She always selects the songs herself... everything ranging from old classic jazz to modern pop. She is able to change her voice to match any song she sings and make it her own. (she can cover Amy Winehouse and Lana del Rey like nobody else)
- Angelina has collaborated with some very big names over the last few years... Quincy Jones, Mark Ronson, David Foster, Alan Walker and many more. All of which heard her and were blown away by her talent.
- Angelina has written three of her own original songs: "What is Life", "Shield" and "Oslo". (all are amazing...all can be found on youtube)
In summary, Angelina Jordan is destined to be one of the greatest singers to have ever lived. This is just my opinion, but if you listen closely to any of her stuff you will hear the greatness. She sings with a natural style. There is no acting, no showing off, there are no unnecessary runs, or big belty notes just for the purpose of saying "hey look at me sing". She once said "when I sing I go into a magical world in my head", and you can always hear the results of that. When Angelina sings it is pure soul, pure emotion, pure music.
Rusty, I've been waiting to see that you made here! Thanks for all the detailed information you provide. I know as a fan I appreciate it and I'm sure others do too....Angelina fan for life!
@@DaisyMae1975LOVE I don't appreciate it. This lunatic posts the same comment(s) on every video. He gives me a creepy stalker vibe.
👩🏻🎤🎵🌎⭐️🇳🇴❤️ Angelina was 13 here. She started singing when she was one and a half, and won Norway's Got Talent when she was 8. "What a unique voice...I can't even think of anybody to compare her to." You are correct, Angelina is unique and incomparable. She is also the most versatile and most expressive singer I've ever heard. I hope you will continue to react to her. If you do, you will discover untold riches.
Since you are sticking with my idol, i am your new subscriber.
Since you are a Queen fan...Angelina Jordan does The Show Must Go On! Welcome to the rabbit hole...this young lady is truly phenomenal...you will see her fans will follow and are always polite...thank you for your reaction and I'm really glad you enjoyed it!
That was the new Queen of jazz. She bring back songs from times gone, she can sing everything and always make the song hers.
Yeah Angelina!! 👍🏼🎼🤗
Great reaction. She is 14 but was 13 in this video.
She has done around 130 covers.
I would suggest Yellow Brick Road which she did next on AGT.
Then go to I Put a Spell on You, the black and white version when she was 9.
Rusty will probably be giving you her history and a play list.
Thank you
She was 13 on AGT , 14 now. She does Queens The Show Must Go On too!!
You'll be getting plenty of recommendations from the many AJ fans. Everything she does is amazing and she has such an incredible history at such a young age. I'll leave it up to the other devoted AJ fans to clue you in about her and her life. You're going to be hooked on the young angel with the hypnotic voice and Mona Lisa smile. Enjoy.
Welcome to Angelina's world. - She won Norwegian talents at the age of 8, and is predicted to become the next superstar! She is also known for being able to adjust the voice to which genre she sings. She has approx. 130 covers on TH-cam + 3 originals.
Angelina Jordan - Date of birth: January 10, 2006 (age 14 years), Born and raised in Oslo, Norway; this world-renowned singer has earned fantastic reviews for the amazing breadth, depth and maturity of her vocal talent that simply belies her young age.
Something you might have noticed is that Angelina always performs barefoot!!!
When Angelina was 6 years old, she met a homeless girl around her age when she was traveling in the Middle East. The girl did not have any shoes, and Angelina says her feet were scarred. Angelina gave the girl her own shoes. Angelina then “vowed never to appear on stage again wearing shoes until all the world’s children had them.” She keeps that promise to this day, as she says that little girl “is always in my heart.” - Angelina said she asked the little girl what her dream was, and the girl responded that she wanted to be a doctor. Angelina told her to “never give up.” In return, the girl told Angelina she would pray for her, and asked her to “remember me.”
She might as well sing in a bad cellphone microphone, without a microphone, or to collaborate with professional musicians. She does not need any autotune or digital aids to sing. It is real song in an otherwise polished world. She just sings because it's her passion.
Angelina’s videos have received over "over 600 Million views on youtube & over 2 Billion views on Facebook."
Amazingly, her passion for music began at just one-and- a-half years of age when Angelina first saw Whitney Houston on TH-cam performing I Will Always Love You. Whitney - and later Billie Holiday, Dinah Washington - became her first major musical influences.
At the age of seven, Angelina auditioned for Norway’s Got Talent performing Billie Holiday’s Gloomy Sunday. She won the competition with the show drawing record TV audiences.
Not surprisingly, throughout her rising career, Angelina has featured in prominent media outlets including TIME, CNN, BBC, and People while also performing on the U.S. network TV shows Little Big Shots and The View.
In 2016, Avicii chose Angelina for the vocals on his worldwide Volvo commercial campaign, a brilliant cover of Nina Simone’s Feeling Good.
As well as singing before Nobel Peace Prize Laureates, charitable causes to which Angelina has given her talent include the Rainforest Alliance at the American Museum of Natural History in New York and Ein Herz für Kinder in Berlin where she helped raise over 21 Million Euros for children and families in need.
Everyone in the music industry knows who she is, but the family and herself want her to grow up as normal as possible. Among other things, they said no to Disney!
This multi-talented singing prodigy has also written a successful, illustrated children’s book in her native Norway making Angelina the youngest published author in the country’s history.
Today she is 14 years old and has over 126 covers and 3 originals on TH-cam. She has already managed to collaborate with the biggest in the music industry, and is considered to be a future megarstar.The family and herself want to take it easy in the musical development because of her young age.
NOTE!
Angelina is independent and owns the rights herself. Angelina Jordan INC. She and her family take it easy because of her young age. Angelina wants total ownership over her creativity, without compromise. She / family said no to Disney, among other things. She attends some major foundrising concerts. Rumor has it that she is coming up with her own album this year.
Why didn't Angelina Jordan win AGT champions?
It's because she refused to sign with them and they told her she wasn't gonna win if she didn't. Well. She didn't win. and how to determine the best talent of a singer, magician or dance group, but I think they were aware of this, but still wanted her to attend to bring as many viewers as possible. Then there was no way she could win.
The entire acclaimed music industry knows who she is, and she was invited to sing for Quincy Jones during his 85th birthday at O2 Arena London th-cam.com/video/OMkwoqUNNkE/w-d-xo.html . She has also collaborated with David Foster, Gene Simmons, Alan Walker. In addition to singing at the Nobel Prize concert 8 year old. This is just something from her résumé at 14 years old and the list is much longer. So it was really AGT that she was lucky that she showed up. But as I said, AGT is just a TV show and not a competition. Calling it a Talent Competition is too stupid. The only thing that was real is all the amazing talents we saw and heard.
Note! She is also Norway's youngest author with published book 9 years old!
She was 7 when she won Norway's Got Talent
She won Norways got talent at 7 years old. Try " I put a spell on you " to start and then check her more than 100 covers and a few originals
She was only 13 on AGT. Her arrangement. She’s been singing since she cold talk. They only have 90 sec.
Welcome to the world of Angelina. Her voice is breathtaking. 🇧🇻😁
She is already a legend. A superstar
Hi. Greetings from Norway. Thank you for reacting to Angelina's first Wonderful AGT Champions performance . I'm always happy when I see new people discover / react to her for the first time. She was 13years old in this video. She is 14 years old now.
I hope you will continue to react to her soon. You will have a lot of "wow moments" if you continue on your reaction journey to her. 😇
I first discovered Angelina Jordan Astar when she first participated in Norway's got talent 2014, when she was
7 and 8 years old. ( here is a video clip from the finals: Angelina Jordan Astar 8yo Wins Norway's Got Talent! Full Final Show:
th-cam.com/video/iBVe68xYEpc/w-d-xo.html )
I still remember that I was shocked in a positive way, and I have ever since that time been a fan. A fan of a child. I wouldn't believed it if you had asked me 10 years ago.
I have never been interested in the jazz music genre , but Angelina's interpretations of old jazz music classics has "opened my eyes" for that kind of music for sure, and in a way "touched me".
In the past year she has posted some great covers of modern music as well.
She has released some original songs. One of them is her song Shield, which has already been covered in "The Voice" Norway song competition. ( You can find the cover of Angelina's song "Shield" here: th-cam.com/video/bdUaGvdPLuE/w-d-xo.html
th-cam.com/video/oLr9PBwg8X4/w-d-xo.html )
Here is a interview with english subtitles from norwegian tv short time after she won Norway's got talent when she was 8 where she tell about why she perform barefoot on stage:
th-cam.com/video/A-OKLslO74Y/w-d-xo.html
The english subtitles is correct translated.
Here is my personal recommendation to some more performances by Angelina Jordan which may be a suggestions to listen to as well in the future. (There is a lot of more videos of her and from 2019, but these will be some examples to give you an introduction to what she is capable of):

Angelina is unique and has the ability to touch our souls again and again. 😊
ENJOY 😇
Welcome to “The World Of Angelina Jordan Astar” (full name). “The Barefoot Singer With The Velvet Voice And A Mona Lisa Smile”. From her audition on Norway’s Got Talent (2014 - age 7- Gloomy Sunday "Billy Holiday") through the finale’ on America’s Got Talent The Champions (2020 - age 13 - Goodbye Yellow Brick Road "Sir Elton John") and the 130+ videos in between you will not be disappointed. My personal favorite is her cover of Lana Del Rey's "Born To Die".
You will find she rewrites many lyrics to make them "Family Friendly" When she is older she may do the first verse about murdering someone!?!
She is the youngest published author in Norway. Angelina wrote and her Grandmother illustrated a book about why she sings barefoot. She was on a trip to Iran where her grandmother is from and met a street girl weighing people for money. Angelina sat and talk with the girl. Angelina asked the girl what she wanted to be when she grew up and the girl replied, a Doctor but that it could never happen. Angelina told her to never give up hope. The girl complimented Angelina on her shoes and Angelina noticed her scarred bare feet so she gave them to her, and the little girl told Angelina she would pray for her every day. Angelina sings barefoot to remind the world that there are still children in need.
The girl is special that AJ and only 13 at the time of this performance. Check out her performance of "I Put a Spell on You" at age 9!
great reaction. you just watched the best female singer of this generation. You'll see...
the outfit is based on a paint her grandma did.
She was 13 years old on this song.
You have to react to I PUT A SPELL ON YOU to understand what Angelina is. You soon will realize you want to react to Angelina more and more.
Prepare to be amaze over and over. Her super power is to improve known songs and make them her own. You will forget about the original singers.
Welcome to the Angelina club. She is 14 years old now and around 6 feet tall.
Angelina is amazing. She sings barefoot because when she was traveling through a poor country when she saw a little girl like her without shoes and she gave her the ones she was wearing. She won't wear shoes when she sings until all children have shoes.
This is the list, in chronological order of many of her songs (from super fan Rusty Shackleford's List):

Angelina is the greatest of all time NOW.
"WOW! Angelina Jordan just slayed a classic!" - This one months ago in fact, and all the others over 6 years. #Legend.
She's a VOCAL BEAST and I love her version!!! She has got runs and rifts for DDDAAAAAYYYYYYSSSSS❣❣❣Thanks for the reaction y'all...blessings ☝️❤☝️❤☝️
True facts: She was 13 years old when she performed this song; she made the arrangement herself; she WON Norways Got Talent at the age of 8; she has done some amazing things like being invited to sing at Quincy Jones' 85th birthday concert, she sang for the Nobel Prize winners, she sang at the Brilliant Minds Gala in front of many important people as exPresident Obama... Her track record at her age (she turned 14 this January) is outstanding!
She's the voice of this generation, specially when it comes to jazz.
Just check her out on TH-cam and be prepared to be amazed! Just sayin'
So to be clear, Angelina has been pretty protected by her family all these years, so she can develop her career slowly but still continue her education and just enjoying her childhood.
That' s probably why not that many people are aware of her GIFT. And I don't say that lightly, she HAS A GIFT.
P.S.. She designed her outfit based on a pattern of her grandma's paintings. She is a humble, kind and generous person who has sund for many, many fundraisers and charity concerts.
Well, now I'm rambling about her. Just check her other performances in her official and cover channel ;)
She was 7 years old when sh Won.
Car65los Apprentice - 7 when she entered the contest... sang thru quarterfinals and then to finals = Age 8 when she officially won
@@damedicmt It starts from the moment she starts the competion and not when it ended.
@@Apprentice777JetSet - Exactly!! She was 7 when entered the competition. When the finals came along and she won with her song in the finals, she was 8. But this is NO matter: she could have won the competition at 6!! She is awesome to have entered at the age of 7 years old and won the whole thing and now 6-7 years later she is an absolute "Force to be reckoned" with! No lie. There is no competition for her, maybe Elvis!
Thanks for reacting to this superstar to be! She is exceptional in many ways and it will be so interesting to follow her career. I would recommend her "You're Just to Good to Be True", I Can't Help Falling in Love", "My Baby Shot Me Down"
The good thing about the show requiring a two minutes version is that she could change the meaning of the lyrics just by selecting certain parts.
It would have been weird for a 13 y/o girl to sing “Mama, just killed a man.” Instead, her version could be about someone struggling with a life-threatening illness instead of murder and trial.
It’s very cleaver. She has done similar things with other covers.
Welcome to Train Angelina 💯💥❤ Prepare to be 💥💥💥 a stunned mullet! Thanks xx
Hold on to your britches. Freddie is smiling!!! 😁 😍
Love AJ.... Thank you for the reaction
Welcome to the Angelina journey
She's 13. Won Norway's Got Talent at 7. She's a prodigy, and a genius. Her covers are masterpieces. Check out Lana del Rey's Young and Beautiful. Or Adele's A Million Years Ago. But you should probably start with her 9 year old version of I Put A Spell On You (you better be sitting down).
Thanks for your beautiful first reaction, Brad. It's hard to react to an interpretation like this, you can only be impressed by the fact that Angelina at only 13 years old was able to face a challenge with such an iconic song as this and made her become her own song, with a fantastic reworking, a calm, powerful and terribly emotional interpretation. I understand your feelings very well, I listened to Angelina in this her Bohemian for at least a hundred times and it still takes me by the throat and leaves me upset.
For me she is perhaps the most multifaceted and talented singer there is at the moment, if you think she is just turned 14 years. If you continue in her discovery, and I guarantee you that you have material galore, you will be constantly surprised and excited, because Angelina has that ability, with her slowed song and her soft voice, to go digging into the soul to make you move, which is really rare and she does it every time, since she had 6 years.
Angelina is not only what you saw in this perfect performance, she is much more, even very different, but everything she does is at a superlative level, she sang about 130 different interpretations, including covers, songs written for her and her originals written between 11 and 12 years old, if they seem enough
Welcome to the world that's Angelina Jordan and great voice and just think about it she's only 14 she's only going to get better
Great reaction, Angelina is at level of vocal artistry seldom if ever seen for a young , besides her other talents , She is Norway's youngest published author at around 9 to 10 years old, she plays , piano, violin, flute, and guitar . Angelina does her musical arrangements and has been often observed directing professional musicians playing for her as to what she wants in a song.
she is always in command when she performs in a very humble respectful manner to band members. Angelina is like no other I heave ever witnessed in her many abilities for one so young .she touches one right down to their heart and soul when she sings.
(Angelina a short history ); Angelina has been singing since she was 1.5 years old (18 months started singing a Whitney Huston song , video on you tube of this here is the linkth-cam.com/video/VJjG68Dfr-8/w-d-xo.html at 1:55 on this video is her at 1.5 years old ) later she was taken by jazz and started singing jazz classics as her grandmother introduced her to jazz tunes. Her singing is her life and her passion . her mother tried to get her to sing nursery songs and she just flat out refused to involve her self in that nonsense.
She is her own driving force no one dictates to her what she does in her singing or preparations, it is all her 110%. the following are her own songs . Won Norway's got talent at 7 to 8 years old has over 125 videos on line plus three of her own compositions and two that were written for her to sing , the first 3 she wrote and arranged herself, the last two were written for her to sing
1, Shield ,, th-cam.com/video/lQtUbVKb0vs/w-d-xo.html
2. Oslo,, th-cam.com/video/6PsVu4iNmX0/w-d-xo.html
3. What Is Life,, .th-cam.com/video/Bv0r77KN7RA/w-d-xo.html
4. Above the water,, th-cam.com/video/SC3F0bKKk3U/w-d-xo.html
5. Song for A ("A" standing for Angelina) ,, th-cam.com/video/Bo3mhxPM-uA/w-d-xo.html
Angelina had over 500 million views of her singing videos before her performance on AGT The Champions now her views are in the billions . Angelina was well known all over the world except in America up until her AGT Champions , mini concert.
She sings bare foot since she was 6 years old to honor a bare foot orphan girl she met around her own age around 6 years old whom had no shoes and had scars on her feet, she was weighing people on a bathroom scale for money to support her and her siblings. Angelina at six years old took her shoes off and gave them to this poor girl, and Angelina has performed on stage in honor of the pledge she made to her not to sing on stage with shoes on from then on . Angelina has honored that pledge for last 8 years . Angelina takes on a different voice for each song she covers to give homage to the song, and never tries to show off her vocal abilities but always gives each song its due respect. Angelina has a 5 octave range and her low note ability is just mind blowing for a pre-teen or now at just a mere 14 years as of Jan. 10 ,2020.
Angelina can sing any genre and excel at it many times better than the original artist.
Absolutely beautiful arrangement and she is 14 years old she was on Norway’s got talent and then she was on America’s got talent xx
She was 13 when this was recorded 😉
Megan Spurgeon she was 7 when she won NGT. She is 13 on here... AGT. She tells u in the intro
Her grandmother painted the fabric. Angelina sewed it together.
The moment the muscle man backstage melted with her performance...👍
Brad, I don't know if you respond to our comments but, in a word, Angelina is a treasure and she connects straight to our hearts and souls. Come aboard! There's room on the train for you.
Both Quincy Jones and David Foster have gushed over Angelina,so yeah she's special.She was 13 here,how about her black and white version of I Put a Spell on you,at 9 yrs of age,for a guaranteed mindblower. th-cam.com/video/nwFloCPXzCs/w-d-xo.html
You got that right brother!
She is 13 there now shes 14 and has done amazing covers of so many people. She only had 90 seconds.
Too late!...
Even if you won't believe it and if you are in denial about it: Only listen to one song sung by Angelina Jordan and she has bewitched you! From now on you are assimilated in her entourage! Resistence is futil...
;-)
Every time it's a pleasure to watch people reacting especially the first time to Angelina Jordon and I hope to see more of your reactions on Angelina Jordan - I'm sure I will and you will discover a huge pile of WOW-moments ;-)
All the other things like recomendations, playlists, her web site and so on you can read in the comments of the megafans like Fernando F., Rusty, ... ;-)
Thanks a billion for your nice reaction! ...and see you soon with your next AJ reactions :-D
Only a little Question:
When (NOT IF ;-) ) you react to her cover "I put a spell on you" (th-cam.com/video/nwFloCPXzCs/w-d-xo.html - btw. she made most of her cover arrangements by herself!) it would be fun to react in the same reaction video IN ADVANCE to the original from Screemin' Jay Hawkins (from 1956 - th-cam.com/video/7kGPhpvqtOc/w-d-xo.html) than you will find out that Angelinas cover is a real tribute to Jay Hawkins :-D
She does a cover like no one else on the planet. She re-writes and/or re-arranges every song she sings to give it that "Angelina Touch". She knows the exact formula of how much she needs to "Angelina-ize" her voice, tone, inflection, emotion, persona and volume with different proportions to perfectly fit every song she sings! She has mastered the art of making her version of a song unique, yet showing complete respect for the Original.
" It better be good. You know what I mean" Have your subs ever steered you wrong? That's all I'm saying!!!!!!!
Every time I hear Angelina sing, I picture her stepping out of an old black & white movie, to take us back in time, so we can fall in love with these genuine masterpieces again ❤️ 💚 💙 💜 Great reaction, & if you haven't reacted to any of her earlier works, I put a spell on you, when she was 9 years old, it will blow your mind, & you will be definitely hooked on her talent!!
To do everything different - that's Angelina🇧🇻🤗
Great reaction! Angela Jordan is a “legend” in the making...she captivates and hypnotises you when she sings. The variety of music that she sings is only matched by the variety of her natural styles and vocal abilities.
She doesn’t do tricks, use dramatic stage setups or put on a “theatrical act”, she sings needing only her voice, one instrument and a song. This is the sign of a legendary singer.
I also noticed that you love “Queen...Freddy Mercury”. Who, that is worth breathing doresn’t? Right? Well Angelina covered another one of their songs that is one of my favorites of hers. It really stirs a lot of emotion. Missing the talent of Freddy Mercury, feeling such sorrow over his death and sadness that there will never be another performer like him. Her voice is so strong and brings out so much emotion that I think that you will love it, here is the link....”The Show Must Go On” th-cam.com/video/6NJv02ot5jg/w-d-xo.html
My favorite songs of hers are Born To Die, A Million Years Ago, and Stay. You should react to those.
This was aired 3 days before her 14th birthday. I don't know when it was recorded, but I way a day to 3 before. But that just my opinion.
Totally agree with you. Continue to react to her.
Great react and try another great cover by Angelina,The Show Must go on,queen song, that song will blow you away,amazing.
She was 13 when she did Bohemian Rhapsody. And now it’s time to get your head bent out of shape. Watch her arrangement of I Put a Spell On You (Black and White version). She did it when she was 9 years old. It will really make for not getting a more rocking version of Bohemian Rhapsody. Also Angelina fans love to watch reactors react to it just for shock value.
Реакция , просто шикардос!!! Рекомендую!

You've been schooled dude. The remaining members of the Freddie's band praised her for her version.
She has her own Label (Angelina Jordan )and put the full version on most streaming platforms bought mine on Amazon music .
I heard Angelina has moved to LA. If true how 😥 sad can it get--A superstar in a teen wonderland like Los Angeles and stuck in Covid-19 lockdown.
Welcome to the world of AJ!! Black and white version of "I put a spell on you" from screaming Jay Hawkins R.I.P. make sure you are sitting down when she belts that out at "9" years old!!
Freddy would have loved her...!
React to 'I Put a Spell on You' black and white studio version. She's only 9 there and she'll knock your socks off!
Good reaction to 13 years old Angelina's outstanding arrangement and performance! For a second impact I would suggest "I put a spell on you", the black and white version, that she performed at 9 years old as a tribute to Screamin' Jay Hawkins 😉
BTW, got you one step closer to the 7K 😉
Angelina 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Very nice reaction. Be prepared for a awesome journey if you go on. And you should. There are tons of comments below, all great. Have fun, and thanks. : )
I never was a fan of that song, but I can listen to this version. Meanwhile, check out the Black and White video version of her singing "I put a spell on you"
She also did Elton John’s yellow brick road on the same show on her next performance.
She also do a cover of Queen's "The show must go on" 🙂🙂
I used to be a bit apprehensive when a reacter started a video pointing out that they're a huge fan of a song or artist that Angelina is covering. Now it just makes me happy, because I know it's very likely that they will love what Angelina does. (She doesn't always change up songs as much as she did here. When she's not singing over a backing track, she tends to slow down the song, strip down the instrumentation, and jazz up the vocals. And even when she _is_ singing over a backing track, it's not uncommon for people to come away feeling like she has sung the song better than the original artist. Her voice is _crazy_ good, and she can make it sound completely different - and yet still obviously _her_ - from one song to the next. You ain't heard nothin' yet…)
If you like her runs, her next song on AGT:C, "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road", is also pretty insane in that regard. (Based largely on Sara Bareilles' cover of the song, the general outlines of the arrangement turned out to be pretty similar to this one here. It was impressive, but did not garner her a spot in the top 5 in the final results.)
As someone has already said (essentially), you can almost pick any of her covers (or originals) at random and probably end up impressed. But if you'd like to find other songs she's covered that you already like (including another Queen song), take a look at Rusty Shackleford's extensive (but still partial) chronological AJ-favorites playlist: th-cam.com/play/PL2v8kgVeo4EbYDVnRwObjETfWpXbzbgIO.html When you're ready, go back to the (almost) beginning with her _Norske Talenter_ [Norway's Got Talent] stuff. All four of her performances on that show are required listening (in order, please - and be sure to react to the version of "I'm a Fool to Want You" from Rusty's playlist: all the other videos of that performance are edited to remove the entire bridge section of the song [because presumably that's how it originally aired on TV]).
Finally, as many others have already pointed out, she was 13 here (recorded last fall). I don't know how old you thought she was, but I've heard estimates as high as "mid-20s". (!) She's always looked at least a bit older than she is (at least since she was, say, 9). But what will blow your mind is how she consistently _sounds_ like someone _twice_ her age. It's not as noticeable, I suppose, now that she looks older, but back when she was 8 or 9, or 10… or 11… or 12… well, it'll mess with your head. (This is why many of her fans tend to obsessively cite her age along with each song recommendation. This is usually the first question people will ask, if they don't already know, as they hear her start to sing.)
Enjoy the journey, I believe Angelia has 125+ videos out there! Angelina had her hands into making the outfit from cloth with prints of her grandmother's art! Angelina was 13 here (she turned 14 in January). She won Norway's Got Talent at the was between the age of 7 and 8!
Age 13 for AGT. Try her on Norway's got Talent age 7 singing "Gloomy Sunday". Also, singing
"I put a spell on you" age 9.
Listen to Angelina Jordan's cover of Whitney Houston " I Have Nothing" simply wonderful
Born to die is a great one to listen to. Or Shield that she wrote and sings.
Good reaction Brad now you only have 130 / videos to listen to that Angelina has recorded have fun you should take you only a couple years to do one a week
Great reaction! The best part about it is that the voice you fell in love with is just one of her many voices.
There is only one Angelina, but she can adapt to and embrace any musical genre that is inspiring her at that particular moment. The core of her musical being is with classic jazz standards, but she can do soul, R&D, pop, country, EDM, "adult contemporary", classical/folk, etc. Do you know any other 13 year old who has had not one but two EDM (or related style) acts compose songs for her to be the voice? I don't! 😂 One of them, "Above the Water" by TRXD can be streamed or purchased on the major services.
Know any 12 year olds who were personally asked by Quincey Jones to perform "Fly Me To the Moon" (one of the all time great jazz classics, for which the seminal version was recorded in 1964 and arranged by... yep, Quincy Jones) at his 85th birthday celebration at the O2 in London?
She has also written three originals: Oslo, What is Life and (this one also available to be streamed on the major services) Shield.
My favourite from her 2014 (7-8 years old) breakthrough Norway's Got Talent run to Victory is "Bang Bang" but most will recommend "Gloomy Sunday" which is cool because it's her audition performance. Bang Bang was a big leap forward in confidence, stage presence and general polish, imho, so it depends on what interests you.
Probably the most shocking of all her covers is "I Put a Spell on You" from shortly after she turned 9 (the B&W studio recording). It will literally blow your mind, in part because it is literally miles and miles from the voice you just fell in love with on AGT. For raw power, check out the outdoor version of "It's a Man's World", where she subdues and tames the Norwegian Armed Forces military orchestra. To see Angelina Whitney her face off (and yours), "I Have Nothing" should be your detination. Yes, Angelina's home base is the lower register but Whitney's range is also within her broader kingdom. If you feel like crying, two of her covers that have done that to me regularly are "Cry Me a River" (outdoor festival performance) and "Every Time We Say Goodbye" (on the roof of a building in downtown Oslo). And if you. care to have your soul ripped open by Angelina so that she can expose all of its more sensitive bits, put on some quality headphones, dim the lights and check out her cover of Wicked Game (this one: th-cam.com/video/5IAMF4FDfw4/w-d-xo.html ). It also features her piano playing -- minimalist but beautiful.
Oh, if you are wondering why the ages 7 and 8 seemingly being used interchangeably for her Norway's Got Talent performances, and similarly 13 and 14 for AGT Champs, in both cases the season started with the younger age and finished with the older age.
Awesome
Watch Shield! It is her own music. She is the best singer right now! with the pandemic going on she is able to make life nice! also watch her video fly me to the moon acoustic version with the white horse. it is so awesome!
It is funny younger generations mention listening to this type of music at a coffee shop. Older generations think of a speakeasy type bar, filled with smoke and a jazz singer on stage.. :-)
Angelina is a legend in the making, She is already one of the greats and she is easily THE best singer alive today. Angelina always sings barefoot, She sings barefoot because she met a young girl when she was 6 in Iran, the girl was very poor and had no shoes, Angelina gave the little girl her shoes and promised to sing barefoot until every child has shoes.
Since I heard Angelina Jordan sing, I just can't listen to any other singer. I just want to listen to her voice. She put a spell on me.

Awesome reaction, welcome to the world of AJ, got yourself a new sub. On comparisons, Nora Jones and Amy Winehouse is often mentioned, but yes - she is quite unique, and have my voices :)
Queen who???She put the arrangement together and she brought it. Her voice is a once in a lifetime...
She's only 13! I'm sure you're aware of that, by now, but I need to keep saying it in order for that to sink in. She won Norway's Got Talent when she was only 7! Another fact I need to let sink in still.
Please please react to "I put a spell on you " black and white version. Great reaction.
Her new song that she composed "Million Miles" at what 15 or 16? puts the entire Music industry on notice, The Slop that they tried to feed people last awards is OUT! She will set the bar and 90% of them will not be able to get close to being good enough.
She is 13 makes her own clothes does not wear shoes because she met a girl with no shoes.Also wrote a book about it. She won at 7 years old i forget where she's from Norway? Got Talent.She also sang yellow brick road America's Got Talent.Find her way back in time when she was little.Amzaing singer!
Remember, they are only allowed 90 to 120 seconds to present their songs.
A million years ago. She covers that too. It’s fabulous. Check it out
Hi Brad, welcome to the world of young singers blowing your socks off! Many more out there, Daneliya Tuleshova is one worth a listen, as is Jade from Holland, and Angelica Hale.
If you like jazz then i would react to summertime. Or more recent Yellow brick road.
Bohemian Rhapsody has over one billion views on Queen's official channel. This version has over one million views on her official channel.
Other material from her:
I Put A Spell On You 2015 (Screaming Jay Hawkins): th-cam.com/video/nwFloCPXzCs/w-d-xo.html
Yellow Brick Road (Elton John), AGT round 2 : th-cam.com/video/NVRWYEk8T3A/w-d-xo.html
She has some 130+ songs on TH-cam, a real treasure trove to explore.
Go back and listen to all the judges’ comments! Don’t miss it!
Angelina was 13 when this show was recorded last October and she does all her own arrangements. You should hear her when she was 9. Her rearrangement & performance of Screamin Jay Hawkins "I Put a Spell on You" is a totally different mind blowing masterpiece => th-cam.com/video/nwFloCPXzCs/w-d-xo.html
Queen gave her the copyright for her version of this song
It's called jazz. She has the breathy style of Billie Eilish and sounds like Amy Winehouse and Adele, with less power.
You should check out Grace VanderWaal , she won AGT 2016 at 12 years old with her own original music , since then has written and shared over 30 songs
Thank you for reacting to angelina Jordan. She is just an amazing young singer and she did a very beautiful version of this song. She has about 125 cover songs and she also have 5 original songs where she wrote three of the original songs herself. She has done another queen song called «the show must go on» by queen . Here is the link . th-cam.com/video/6NJv02ot5jg/w-d-xo.html
She sings like a 50 year old woman who has been through some stuff. She has an old soul.
