It's AJ's song that she wrote for the little girl she met 12 years ago and gave her shoes to. The little girl told her that she lived in Ruins. This was the first time she ever sang it publicly.
Angelina wrote Princess of Ruins recently - so there is no studio recording yet - she sang it for the first time in public at the concert - it is about why she sings barefoot and is a salute to the shoeless orphan girl she met when she was 6 years old - The song is a complement to the book she wrote "Between Two Hearts" when she was 9 years old about the same incident.
This is her own song. She wrote it not long ago in tribute and memory of the little girl and to whom she gave her shoes when she was 6 yrs old. I believe you know that story.❤
If you watch the intro to the this song , which she wrote, she explains the story behind the song and why she is barefoot on stage. Thank you for your service. I am a retired cpo.
She is already an artist for the big occasions with e.g. The new FIFA World Cup's official anthem, in addition to several major performances. Like few artists, she has performed for the Nobel Peace Prize at the age of 8 and 17. She is 18 today. 250 songs both covers and originals left to listen to! She has had many live performances.
The significance of the title "Princess of Ruins". From her book, Between Two Hearts: I say to the girl: "Yes, I know what your name is. You are called princess." "Yeah, I'm princess" She stands there, a little uncertain. "I'm not a princess living in a castle. We live in ruins; we have no castle."
@@kevingood4644 In her interview on Norwegian tv when her book was released, the host asked her where this took place. She said it was in the Middle East, but it could have been anywhere. That shows how aware Angelina was, at a young age, of how widespread poverty is. She donates the proceeds of her book sales to charity and has performed at many charity events in support of children's causes.

All her own written Songs are out of her bookshelf full of her Life experience journal. She released an early book Between two hearts 💕 at the age of 9y 💫 that made her the youngest publisher in her homeland. Worth to read this emotional Story. It shows her deep minded character and where all her power comes from 🎉 Thank you very much for your praying 🤗 Peace 🕊️☮️
Hi again, sir. This song is front-loaded with a lot meaning that folks new to Angelina - like you - can't possibly be expected to know. Angelina had a foundational life experience as a child when she met a young girl who was struggling to survive in the Middle East after losing her mother, and Angelina wrote a book called "Between Two Hearts" about the experience, making her the youngest published author in her home country of Norway. Angelina gave the despairing, shoeless girl her own beautiful green shoes. It's why - to this day - Angelina performs barefoot: it's out of respect for the hardship the little girl whom Angelina called, "Princess", had to endure; it's out of respect for the girl's prayers to God for help; it's Angelina's empathic nod to never forgetting and always wanting to help those in need. In short, the two young girls shared their hearts with each other, talking about what each one wanted to do their lives. Angelina has never forgotten the experience. Now, she's come out with a song that tenderly conveys and beautifully expounds on the story told in the book. Angelina is a rarity; the world is a far better place with her in it.
This song is from a personal experience, one that bridges the gap between two young souls amidst the backdrop of the conflicts and losses, in the Middle-East. It's a tribute to a moment that Angelina shared with an orphaned girl in a destroyed village. Both were about six years old, but the encounter left an indelible mark on Angelina. Upon noticing the girl's scarred feet, bereft of the protection of shoes, Angelina responded with a gesture of profound empathy and solidarity-she took off her own sneakers and gave them to the girl. This act of kindness was not just about the shoes; it was a symbol of shared humanity and a silent promise to remember and act. Moved by this encounter, Angelina made a commitment that would define her performances. She vowed to perform barefoot, a decision which is a small personal sacrifice, but deeply meaningful. It's a call to awareness, a deliberate act designed to draw the audience's attention to a stark reality: countless children around the world are deprived of even the most basic necessities, such as a simple pair of shoes. The song, therefore, is more than a musical composition; it's a vessel for a powerful message. It speaks to the resilience and dignity of those who endure the ravages of conflict, the innocence lost, and the compassion that can emerge from shared experiences of hardship. Through her vow to perform without shoes, Angelina transforms her music into a platform for advocacy, aiming to inspire action and change. The narrative woven through the lyrics, while capturing a specific moment of connection and generosity, extends a universal invitation to listeners. It asks us to see beyond our immediate surroundings, to recognize the struggles of others, and to respond with empathy and support. It reminds us that in the face of adversity, our actions-no matter how small they may seem-can carry profound significance. In essence, the song stands as a testament to the power of human connection and the impact of personal stories in driving awareness and fostering a sense of global responsibility. Through Angelina's voice and her commitment, the song becomes a beacon of hope, urging us to look, listen, and act on behalf of those who face the harshest realities of life, often unseen. The point is, that we need to care more about others, and act through simple measures which are in our power. Make the world a better place, make it void of petty egos and politics which have resulted in so much destruction and suffering. Do something, not nothing.
I see the Angels have filled you in on the significance of this original song about why she sings barefoot. Here's a short synopsis for those who do not know the story. Why Angelina always performs barefoot At age 6 For those that do not know. Why Angelina always performs barefoot At age 6, while traveling in the Middle East with her mother and grandmother, Angelina noticed a girl around her age standing on the side of the road asking people to step on her bathroom scale to be weighed in hopes of getting some money. Angelina took off her shoes and stepped on the scale many times to make the girl feel better. Angelina befriends the girl who was not wearing shoes and has scars on her feet, and learns she is an orphan. The orphan girl tells Angelina how beautiful she thinks her shoes are. Angelina says her shoes don’t fit her well and she wants to give her shoes to the orphan girl who thanks Angelina for giving her the shoes. Angelina asked the girl what she wanted to be when she grew up and the girl replied, “I want to become a doctor, but that will never happen since I have no parents and I have siblings so I have to do whatever is necessary for us to survive.” Angelina told the girl to never give up on her dreams. The poor girl asked Angelina what she wanted to be when she grew up and Angelina replied that she wanted to sing for the whole world. The poor girl said she would pray every day so Angelina’s dream would come true. Angelina still says she thinks of that homeless girl every day and has always performed barefoot to remind her of all the children who are less fortunate. At age 9, she became the youngest published author in Norway’s history by writing a book about this encounter in the Middle East. 'Between Two Hearts Why Angelina sings barefoot interview.

A humble reaction from you, I think this song will be big a touching story by Angelina and her dedication to raising awareness for children less fortunate something she’s done for 12 years now
Hello Sir. Welcome to Angelina Jordan's universe. Just one friendly tip: one of Angelina's most outstanding talents, and one that sets her at a level few other artists achieve, is her ability to evoke the most intense emotions in every song she performs. Quite a few songs, particularly her originals, for example this one, have special meaning to her, but it also applies to many if her covers. She has been described as a brilliant storyteller. The only way you can really appreciate the impact of these performances is by taking some time to do a little research into the background of the songs before you react to them. This song, for instance, has extremely profound meaning for her, recounting one of the most deeply life-changing experiences of her entire life. Million Miles and Always On My Mind are some other examples. The extreme significance of her choice of Unchained Melody for the Narges Mohammadi tribute, and the passion and reverence with which she performed it, is yet another example. So please take the time; you won't regret it.
Angelina is a gift from God, Class, character and integrity for standing by her identity! what a heart she has! Thank God that the Barefoot Princess wrote this song! Such an amazing young lady, takes the lyrics for this song from her book Between Two Hearts!
This is the Angels first time hearing this song as well. People spent many hours trying to piece together the lyrics from the various videos and got it about 95 percent right. So we all hope she does a studio version but quite frankly even if she doesn't this would be good enough. My guess is that this will be on an album this year sometime. Angelina is one of those rare artists that sounds better (or just as good) live and it only depends on the video quality. Thanks for another nice reaction.
I know you said you can't always reply but you do read these comments I know you have read this is an original and the story behind it If you go to her grandmas channel 😇 na Jordan fan club Mozars and look up her interview on Anne Limno a TV talk show you will here inAngelinas own words her story behind the song.Angelina has twelve originals recorded and this one pre released.She has about 150 cover songs since the age of 6 She is a unique songstress and musician with empathy behind her lyrics and every single note she sings She has donated her time and given thousands of dollars to children's charities and continues this course..Thank you for enjoying Angelina
When Angelina performs an original song, it is typically one that has special meaning for her. A Million Miles, dedicated to her grandpa, following his passing, is one that comes to mind. This one, Princess of Ruins, reflects a personal passion that goes beyond anything else we have heard from Angelina. The story of why Angelina sings barefoot is legendary amongst her Angels. For those that are new to her, it is related to a promise she made to herself when she was only 6 years old. She was traveling in the Middle East with her mom and grandmother and they came across a young orphan girl with no shoes and scarred feet. Angelina gave the girl her own favorite shoes. Not knowing her name, Angelina called her Princess. The girl said, "Yes but princesses live in castles and I don't have one. I live in ruins." The girl asked Angelina what she wanted to do when she grew up, and Angelina said I want to sing for the world. The young girl said she would pray for her. Since then, Angelina has forever performed barefoot as a reminder of the girl and all those less fortunate. She states that it is part of her identity. Her heartfelt commitment to the cause is unwavering and reflects her empathy for all those in need. In her performance of Princess of Ruins, we cannot help but feel Angelina's emotion in our hearts. It is as if our hearts are connected to hers as hers is connected to the orphan girl. Ironically, at age nine, she wrote a book about her experience with the girl, called Between Two Hearts. I consider Princess of Ruins to be one of the most special and impactful works of art Angelina has brought us to date, and I trust there will be more to come. Peace and love.
I've never equated a child with the 'in depth' belief of caring that was Mother Teresa's creed in life, but Angelina proved at 6 years old that she did just that. Have met and spoken to a nun that served under 'Mother' in the slums of Calcutta and was given a photo card 'token' by her of 'Mother' on one side and these words on the other, 'God hath no greater love than for those who come to the aid of stranger in desperate need', and that was Angelina on the day when she gave her shoes to a poor orphan girl she met in streets of the 'war torn' Mid - East. That nun went on to tell me, 'Mother' told her that God knows we all, as loving human beings, give without a second thought to family and friends in need, but when this act of giving concerns a stranger, that is what truly impresses him the most. I like to believe that he has been Angelina's co-pilot in life, ever since that day when she was 6 in the Mid - East.
Hello again, my friend. No one was familiar with this song before the concerts ( she did 2 concerts back to back, performing 38 songs in total), as it was her first time performing it, it is her own song 🙂 I love the reason why she wrote the song, and I like the lyrics, but it is far from my favorite original by her. I have to rank it around 8th on a favorite original list I think. Much love from Norway ♥♥♥♥♥
I watch your videos every day and really enjoy them. I am glad that the other angels brought you up to date on the background for this song. I heard it performed twice in Las Vegas and the audience was really flattered that she shared it publicly for the first time with us.😇
Thank you once again Sir for your reaction to this new original from Angelina. For future Vegas concert reactions I would suggest you go to James Theil's channel (th-cam.com/channels/IzvrRUBe5TrPImMKMZruyA.html) as he was front and center at this concert and recorded in 4K, his recordings are excellent quality. He has only a couple songs up so far with more coming according to James. We appreciate all the fan cell phone recordings but most do her no justice. Be patient as James uploads more. 🥰🥰

This song is a new original written by Angelina about the girl she gave her shoes to when she was 6 years old.
She is just the best
It's AJ's song that she wrote for the little girl she met 12 years ago and gave her shoes to.
The little girl told her that she lived in Ruins.
This was the first time she ever sang it publicly.

*Why Angelina always performs barefoot*
At age 6, while traveling in the Middle East with her mother and grandmother, Angelina noticed a girl around her age standing on the side of the road, asking people to step on her bathroom scale to be weighed in hopes of getting some money. Angelina took off her shoes so as to not get the scale dirty and stepped on the scale many times to make the girl feel better. Angelina befriends the girl who was not wearing shoes and has scars on her feet, and learns she is an orphan. The orphan girl tells Angelina how beautiful she thinks her shoes are. Angelina says her shoes don’t fit her well and she wants to give her shoes to the orphan girl who thanks Angelina for giving her the shoes.
Angelina never learned the orphan's name but chose to call her Princess. The girl replied, "Princesses live in castles, we live in Ruins".
Angelina asked the girl what she wanted to be when she grew up and the girl replied, “I want to become a doctor, but that will never happen since I have no parents and I have siblings so I have to do whatever is necessary for us to survive.” Angelina told the girl to never give up on her dreams. The poor girl asked Angelina what she wanted to be when she grew up and Angelina replied that she wanted to sing for the whole world. The poor girl said she would pray every day so Angelina’s dream would come true.
Angelina still says she thinks of that homeless girl every day and has always performed barefoot to remind her of all the children who are less fortunate. At age 9, she became the youngest published author in Norway’s history by writing a book about this encounter in the Middle East.
