The surviving members of Queen gave her the rights to her version of the song. High praise indeed.
Thanks a lot for the reaction to our angel Angelina...she is simply the best...👍👏
She's a very creative Artist flying through the music world of a lot of genres and the artworks of famous artists of the past and present 💝 she's music, one of the first comments at NGT when she started her audition with Gloomy Sunday. Please react to this next 🎉❤
Oggi e una delle numero 1 al mondo.
It amazes me how many show the Bohemian Rhapsody /AGT performance that stops before Heidi gives Angelina the Golden Buzzer.
There is a studio recording of Angelina singing I Who Have Nothing her first time in a Studio at age 5. You really should try that one. I think it is Grandma Mery taking the video.
keep them comin!! Glad you got to see a bit of her grow up!
She has many styles, and you'll hear more "Amy" in her in others for sure--maybe even jump ahead and listen to her recent single called "Love Don't Let Me Go".
I think doing her newer cover of "My Funny Valentine"is a MUST as well..such mastery and soul/feeling in a 15/16 year old (i think she was around there when she made it)
Thanks for your reaction. Angelina has been called the girl with 1000 voices, and each one is welcoming and sincere. She is easily my all time favorite singer-storyteller as she is able to make me feel like I am part of the story. This is my favorite vocal performance, since the original is such a great song and 13 year old Angelina created a fabulous arrangement and delivered it flawlessly.
Enjoyed your reaction
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🥳
The way I say it is that Angelina hits you right in the feelings.
Angelina designs her performance outfits- including this brilliant pantsuit. The print is from the drawings her grandma Mery did for the book Angelina wrote and published. How amazing is that?🤯🔥🧡🙌❣️
Wow!! Really?! ♥️
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
👍👍Awesome, Angelina is so, so talented. 🖖❤
Her voice never sounds the same Girl of 1000 voices.
❤❤❤
A great video to introduce Angelina’s family,
When you react to Bohemian Rhapsody take notice during her performance they highlight audience members in the front row. That is Angelina's Family. From left to right Her uncle and manager Michael Astar, her little sister Juliette, her mother Sarah Astar and her grandmother Mery Zamani. Notice her little sister crossing her fingers as the performance starts. Later her mother wiped tears from her eyes and then again crosses her fingers before Howie speaks.. Also remember she said she had waited 10 years to sing for Simon. When she was 3 years old she was begging her mother to go on 'that Simon show'. ♥👣👸🏻🎷
Even the James Webb Space Telescope is yet to find a better artist. Great reaction.
….. Gold 🏆.
As a toddler Angelina would call AGT "That Simon Show". I think she is attracted to his brutal honesty.
Actually she auditioned at NGT when she was 7 and won the show several months later at 8.
The most mesmerizing performance I have ever heard ❤ Queen themselves shared this performance on their socials, saying Wow, what a rendition ❤ That is a huuuge compliment 👍
A unique hypnotic ability.
Angelina Jordan's ability to inspire a profound sense of investment in her success among her fans can be attributed to several factors. Her journey from winning Norway's Got Talent at a young age to becoming an international sensation has been marked by her soulful renditions of classic songs and original compositions that resonate deeply with audiences worldwide. Her music transcends language and cultural barriers, often evoking strong emotions and a sense of connection with her listeners. Moreover, her genuine engagement with her fans through social media and her philanthropic efforts, which reflect her compassionate personality, further strengthen this bond. Angelina's unique style, which blends jazz influences with contemporary elements, showcases her versatility and ability to innovate within her art form, making her music both timeless and fresh. This combination of emotional depth, personal connection, and musical innovation is what likely fuels the desire of her fans to see her thrive in all her endeavors. ©
❤❤❤
Thank you for your reaction.
And we need more. 😊
I can tell by your reaction you need to take a little time away from the computer and then listen to Angelina's performance again. You were 'amazed' by what you were listening to and although you thought very highly of her performance you didn't let it reach inside you to get the full impact. When you listen to it again for your personal pleasure you will understand what I mean. When the video first started Angelina was answering questions from someone we couldn't see. As you said she did appear to be nervous and wiped away what appeared to be a tear in her right eye. But when the performance started not a trace of nervousness. She was once asked when she was little why she didn't get nervous when she sang in front of many people. Her reply: "The happiest I am in my life is when I am on stage singing for everyone." Enjoy the journey you are about to go on. It will be like going on a ride as a kid in an Amusement Park and you never want it to end!
Thank you for the feedback. I did notice that she wasn't 'shiny' when she went on stage. I think that while she doesn't show nervousness, when you are in front of the person whose opinion you are craving, can make even the strongest performers nervous. She clearly has a technique, or routine, to pull herself into a 'zone' though for when she actually goes out onto the stage. I am looking forward to visiting this amusement park again!
@@RetroToMetroReactions In an interview from several years ago, she was asked if it was scary performing in front of so many people. She chuckled (as if saying: "Are you kidding?") She answered: "No, I think it's nothing but fun! I love singing!"
@@RetroToMetroReactions 🙂
Such a gift and a blessing, Great reaction
Thanks for your reaction. As mentioned Queen was so impressed they gave her copyrights to her version. I had the opportunity to see her live in Portsmouth and both concerts recently in Vegas. Amazing talent and wonderful person
Rumor from Juliette is that the UK is next stop for Angelina
That is amazing!
Nice reaction. "blown away" and "sweet sincerity" are 2 phrases you could just as easily use with 100 more of her performances - they're 2 sides of the same Angelina coin. She's as much a wonderful human being as she is a once in a generation vocalist.
Please enjoy the journey, as though you had a choice. Any Angelina fan loves the enjoyment that is inevitable on a new listeners face when she goes through her opening rounds with this lovely lady. Angelina is an amazing person as much as she is an amazing singer--there is so much to enjoy here, so easy to fall in love. She is forever in my heart, as is she in so many. And you haven't even met her fabulous family yet.
Angelina is so humble with such humility. Also have a very compassionate heart and so family oriented...You can't help but fall in love with a person like that.. You can take away her voice / talent, but as a person, she's a wonderful human being all around..Someone you'd like to have as a daughter, granddaughter, or a niece. The way she talks with her fans or in interviews is very sweet, very endearing..
Angelina has the ability to sing any genre, her fans named her the barefoot Queen of jazz and soul with a thousand different styles and voices,Angelina has many amazing performances from 10 years old, ( I will Survive), and ( Feeling Good) live on the Stream, and ( I’m Still Holding Out For You) fan made video, and ( Back To Black) all these not to be missed, Great reaction thanks 🙏
Well fans would say stuff like that wouldn't they?
Hello, we are so blessed to be able to experience her, I have been following her for 4 years when I found her on AGT The Campions. Now I have to listen to it every day, it's part of my daily routine. For me she is like a healthy drug that my mind cries out for. She's 18 now and still getting better live, she's a superpower. There are over 200 cover songs of hers that are mostly better than the original as well as 13 originals that she wrote and there are still over 100 songs that were written by her in the drawer waiting to be released so we still have a lot to look forward to . Greetings from Germany (translated by Google)
Danke! 🤗
I’m so happy for you! Only two songs in and another 200+ to go(so far). Angelina is a singing phenomena. Pick any song at any age and make sure the tissues are near by. We never know when they will be needed
200+?! That’s a full time job! 😂🤗 one of the downfalls of finding great artists is that I can’t binge on there music. But it’s teaching me patience and delayed gratification. 😅
A&R (Artists and repertoire)
Rob Christie Republic Records Studio Director at Universal Music Group Manhattan Beach, California is Angelina's A&R person, and he has been working with AJ since she signed with the largest record company in the world at the age of 14, three years ago. Rob was the MC of AJ Christmas Show that aired Dec 23, of 21. AJ’s Christmas Show that live-streamed on Dec 23 of 21 had some of the most important musicians of our time: Frank Sinatra's drummer for 6 years, and sun in-law of the late Henry Mancini, Greg Field has won 9 Grammys, and the bass player, Chuck Berghofer who also played for Sinatra for 6 years, and toured with Barbara Streisand, accompanied AJ on her Christmas Show, and they stated that she had the "storytelling ability of the greats, Streisand, Fitzgerald, Vaughan, including Sinatra, to name a few. The main pianist, a five-time nominated for Grammys, Shelly Berg, stated in all his years working with the greatest vocalist, he had never encountered a talent like AJ. Did I forget to mention Jimmy Z, the famous Sax Player who worked with Rod Steward, Etta James, the Eurythmics, and Doctor Dre, was part of the band for the show? Jimmy stated that AJ was the best he has ever played for. Rob Christie Republic Records Studio Director at Universal Music Group Manhattan Beach, California played the guitar, and was the MC of the show. (I can't list the complete backgrounds on all the band members because it would take several pages to do them justice.) Angelina stated that she would rather perform than take a breath, and she has never been forced to perform, it has been her decision. ©
AJ now lives in West Hollywood in Los Angeles, where the record company Republic Records has built a separate music studio for her. She states; "I feel incredibly lucky to have been signed by one of the biggest record companies in the world. I have my own studio where I make my own music. There will also be a lot of concerts in the future because I have released an EP. I will soon go on a world tour and play my songs, (This was stated to TV2 in Norway on Aug. 21, 2023) ©
♥♥♥♥♥
👍🏼🎼🤗💞
The youngest studio recordings are at 6 years old. Not only does she read song lyrics in another language than her natuve tongue even though in Norway they do start to learn English around then. But even more impressive than all that, voice, etc, is in the video of "I who have Nothing" You see her interaction with the schools producer. She analyzes herself, she takes critism and gives direct feedback, being fully aware through the whole process. Pretty amazing for 6!
Bope you enjoy the Jordan Journey
Amazing for someone receiving critique at any age... Amazing x 1000 for a 6 yr old! I'm looking forward to jumping into this rabbit hole.

Her outfit was designed by her artist grandmother, who introduced her to jazz, and sewn by Angelina. Queen gave her the rights to sell this version of their song.
The stars and planets aligned when Angelina Jordan was born.
The journey of an artist can indeed be profoundly affected by their socioeconomic background. Angelina Jordan's financial stability has arguably given her the freedom to explore and express her creativity without the immediate pressure of financial survival. The most profound individual in AJ’s life, according to her, is her grandmother, Mery Zamani, artist/poet extraordinaire who’s knowledge, wealth and genius have tutored AJ, and cultivated her unbelievable talent. This is a luxury not afforded to all artists, and the music industry is replete with stories of immensely talented individuals who have faced immense pressure to succeed financially. This pressure can sometimes lead to a tragic struggle with substance abuse, as seen in the cases of Whitney Houston and Amy Winehouse. Their legacies serve as a stark reminder of the potential consequences of the immense pressures of fame and success in the music industry. It's a complex tapestry where talent, personal circumstances, and external pressures interweave to shape an artist's career and personal life. ©
Thank you for a great reaction to our Angelina (we fans are quite possessive!) Yes, please do go back to her NGT audition with Gloomy Sunday, but don't forget to listen to Billie Holiday's original first so you can compare and see how well Angelina did. By the way, she was 7 years old for this audition but 8 when she won the show - I guess she misspoke.
I recommend you a Spanish singer her name is Diana Navarro with the song "El perdón" she is a singer that transmits a lot when she sings and has incredible melismas. She is also very versatile when it comes to singing. She sings different musical styles. Best regards
I don't have any direct evidence of this, but I think it is _highly_ likely that they got her to cry in that pre-song interview by having her talk about her late grandfather, who passed away about 19 months earlier. She has basically said that he was the inspiration for her choosing to sing this song. (Specifically, she said that the song "reminds" her of him, when she was asked to talk about the song that she was going to sing on the show.) For the record, she was about to lose another grandfather 7 weeks after this performance, from an aggressive cancer that was diagnosed less than a year before, so that probably also played into her emotion in that moment.
Aw! That is so sad.
🥰
For everyone who doesn't know yet:
Not only did Angelina get the golden buzzer from judge Heidi Klum, but she also received huge praise from the remaining members of the legendary Queen. Queen were delighted with Angelina's arrengement and shared it on Twitter with the words "WOW, what a rendition" (three years later they repeated their praise on TT in March 27th 2023 with the words "absolutely killed it".) What was unfortunately not to be seen here, all four judges came on stage to congratulate Angelina (very rarely). 👣💯 *AJ* 💯👣
BTW, Angelina released her version of Bohemian Rhapsody with permission from Queen on January 24th, 2020 under her own label ANGELINA JORDAN INC. shortly after Angelina celebrated her 14th birthday. (There are now over 15 million streams on Spotify alone) 🤗🤗
That is beyond amazing! I wish they didn't cut the video off early. I like watching people getting the golden buzzer.
@@RetroToMetroReactions The AGT production company has tried to block Angelina's audition on TH-cam from the beginning. There is no video of Angelina's audition on AGT's own TH-cam channel. There are rumors that Simon Crowell is responsible for this, but anyone who has seen the interview with Michael Astar, Angelina's uncle and manager, knows that it is nonsense. Here is a link to one of the few videos with the golden buzzer. th-cam.com/video/D7SE6c1Htds/w-d-xo.htmlsi=_Mlevv7JYwhUsMCR
For anybody new to Angelina, who wants to get to know her quickly, I created this playlist with 11 songs from age 7 to 17 (plus a trailer for a documentary describing her career up to 2023): th-cam.com/play/PLddfS789jBCrSUcMxwCiHeJi8A9zN5xt3.html
1. Gloomy Sunday, her 2013 audition to Norway's Got Talent, when she was 7, which was aired in 2014 and then immediatly went viral.
2. Fly Me to the Moon, live on The View, was her US debut later in 2014, and also went viral. It gathered more than 37 Million views on TH-cam, and many more on Facebook.
3. I Put a Spell On You, the song where Screamin' Jay Hawkins got his nickname from, has 11 Million Views so far. Her cover is closer to his original than most well known covers of it. She was 9 years old here.
4. Feeling Good, in a version sung on TV in 2016 while still being 10 years old, though she already started to perform the song in public about a year earlier.
5. A Million Years Ago, one of 13 Adele covers she did, as an impressive acoustic home studio recording.
6. Shield, from 2018, was the third original she relased that year at 12 years old. It is about the protection and support she gets from her family.
7. Bohemian Rhapsody, in her own stripped down arrangement on AGT the Champions Season 2, wowed everyone, including the group Queen themselves, who twittered "Wow, what a performance of Bohemian Rhapsody!"
8. Million Miles, which she wrote and produced together with Stargate, is about the loss of a close person (her grandfather), and was the first song she released 2020 with Republic Records.
9. 7th Heaven, her 2nd song with RR from 2021, is encouraging people to persue their dreams, like she did.
10. Suspicious Minds, done 2022, is an Elvis cover as unique as Bohemian Rhapsody was.
11. Love Don't Let Me Go, her third release with Republic Records, and the first new song on her recently released EP "Old Enough" of total 6 new original songs.
If you are more interested in her recent performances, here is a playlist containing releases and performances from her last 3 years, including all titels from "Old Enough", and her even more recently released Christmas EP: th-cam.com/play/PLddfS789jBCqMgW5xQeK97nibjJCeDme5.html
She cites Billy Holiday as her biggest influence. And she covered more songs from Adele than by any other artist, followed by Amy Winehouse, Elvis, and Sam Smith.
I will follow this path moving forward... thank you!
You should add 12. Unchained Melody, with a full orchestra in Oslo, Norway, for a Nobel Peace Prize tribute to the 2023 Prize winner Narges Mohammadi.
@@LaborsofLoveforAJ-xm2ot Yes, for reaction purposes that's a good advice. For my list, which had as a design goal a limit of about 1 song per year, I'll wait at least for Angelina's new album before I add the next title, since I also have a preference to promote her own original music.
Unfortunately, this video has the best part cut out, probably for copyright reasons. The last judge, Heidi Klum, gave her the Golden Buzzer sending her directly to the finals. Here is what you missed. th-cam.com/video/3QLhZ5N8-F4/w-d-xo.html BTW, I liked & subscribed for your Angelina musical journey. It's Amazing!!! Wait till you see her at 18 yo.
Thank you! I'm dying to jump to her newer stuff, but I want to follow along chronologically... But I am definitely looking forward to it all!
@@RetroToMetroReactionsGoing chronological will take you years to catch up , Angelina will be married with 3 kids . also it's more entertaining for the viewers to skip back and forward . most fans have not known Angelina from the start so we never went chronologically .
🎉🎉🎉 NORWAY'S GOT TALENT
I've attached the link to the audition she made on Norway's Got Talent at the age of 7. Self-taught and learning from the jazz masters, little barefooted Angelina sings a Billie Holiday cover of "Gloomy Sunday." This video includes pre and post-content, all with 🌟ENGLISH SUBTITLES🌟. Of the 4 performances on Norway's Got Talent, I've only found this audition video and her final winning performance of "Summertime" with English subtitles. Here are the 4 performances for your viewing pleasure. If you react to these, please include the pre and post content through the judge's comments.
NGT 1 - GLOOMY SUNDAY - Billie Holiday (spotlights Angelina, her audition, with ENGLISH SUBTITLES)
th-cam.com/video/d3gSho9yf88/w-d-xo.htmlsi=zs2FQv-c0Lu5NtGc
NGT 2 - I'M A FOOL TO WANT YOU - Billie Holiday
th-cam.com/video/6LIcQL5gLoY/w-d-xo.html
NGT 3 - BANG, BANG - Nancy Sinatra
th-cam.com/video/3D0e0miMSI0/w-d-xo.html
NGT 4 - SUMMERTIME, Ella Fitzgerald/Louis Armstrong (spotlights Angelina, final performance, judges, announcing NGT winner, all with English CC)
th-cam.com/video/zN4kAof1is0/w-d-xo.html
... if you want to see the earliest performance we have access to, here she is at 6 years old, singing I WHO HAVE NOTHING, covering Ben. E. King
I WHO HAVE NOTHING, Ben E. King cover, age 6
th-cam.com/video/OtPkxHf_r0M/w-d-xo.htmlsi=usoUdJisw3fmCQOx
If you think that was good, listen to her now at 18.
React to her EP
It's such a great performance, but I really wish this wasn't the most popular version of the recording on TH-cam because it cuts off right after Simon speaks and before Heidi has her exhuberant say and blasts the Golden Buzzer sending her right through to the finals.
Here are a few singers you may want to consider adding to your line-up of reactions:
From England - Lucy Thomas (20 yr?):
You Raise Me Up (w/younger sister Martha)

From The Philippines - Gigi De Lana & Gigi Vibes
Better Days - Diane Reeves cover

From Canada by way of Belgium/Italy Lara Fabian
