❤️❤️❤️❤️👣 This was the first thing I saw by her as well, maybe 15 or so months ago. I had the exact same reaction as you. She was 9 years and two months old here. She will be 19 next January 10th. And she has gotten better every year from here! I just flew out to LA last month and back home to Texas the same evening just to see her live. It was hands down the best concert I have ever been to, and I am 65. The amazing thing about this young lady is that she not only sings like a goddess, but she is kindhearted and humble as well. Did I mention that she is also gracious and pure class? No skimpy costumes, no vulgar lyrics or performances, just pure classy magical singing. She is the most skilled and versatile singer I have ever heard. She is Norwegian, by the way, and English is her third or fourth language. She always performs barefoot, but not for any reason you will probably guess. I will leave it for someone else to tell the story, but she became the youngest published author in Norway when she wrote a book about it at 9 or 10. She has helped raise millions for charities starting at 8 when she won Norway's Got Talent competing against adults! When asked what she wanted to do with the pretty large prize money, she said she wanted to give it to poor children. Her family protected her from the music industry after this , wanting her to have a normal childhood, well as normal as traveling all over the world to sing allowed. Reportedly, they even turned down Disney. They permitted her to sing only during summer, at charitable events, and otherwise not in school. There are around 200 videos on TH-cam of her. Many are not on her two official channels, so don't think that's all there is. I still don't know how what you just watched is possible, but I am thrilled that it was. I just subbed in hopes of seeing further reactions to Angelina and believe me when I say that this is far from the only surprising and astounding thing you will see and hear.
She was nine in this video. She is Norwegian and won Norway's got talent in 2014 aged 7/8....AJ's talent is stunning. I guarantee you if you follow her you will not be disappointed. Respect from Ireland 🇮🇪
For I Put A Spell On You - Angelina was 9 years old - Her nationality is Norwegian but is fluent in English even at this age - This song was not arranged for her - she wrote the vocal arrangement based on listening to the original Screamin' Jay Hawkins version and communicated to the band how she wanted it to be played - in fact, at the beginning of the video you see Angelina writing down some last-minute changes and it is read by the bandleader. You also notice that her own handwritten notes are on the music stand in front of her as she sings. For more insight into how Angelina works, here is a rehearsal video with some of the same band members at the same age (9 yrs old) - You will see that she is aware of what each musician is doing and communicates to them what she wants to do. The first thing she says is that she wants to start, followed by her saying she wants to start over, later she tells the pianist that the key is too low and that she wants to raise it a half-tone, then at the end of the song she changes the ending on the fly. The spoken language is Norwegian: th-cam.com/video/80f3t3dmBbk/w-d-xo.html
Sorrry but no : The guy reading her handwriting is not the band leader, it is the sound engineer. She wrote the lyrics she wanted to sing, nothing to,do,with instruction to the musicians. On « portrait of a child » she miss the beginning and ask the musicians when she had to start ( you ça see them waving at her when it is time to begin, not,the opposit). There is no key change on all the song, she missed the end (had to sing it low) and ask to do do,it again to sing the end correctly. I’m anAJ big fan but I know music and arrangements and there is no need to add legends to her … like « she play guitar and piano and flute », anyone who learned a bit of guitar or piano can do better … It don’t help her and she don’t need it….. 🙂
Um vídeo simples, mas um espetáculo notável. Angelina, cantou, interpretou e de sobra atuou como uma grande artista. O grupo musical é excelente. Praticamente é uns dos vídeos da minha preferencia. Angelina Jordan "Diva" 👏👏😘😘
I couldn't click on this fast enough! This is a whole other rabbit hole for you to deep dive into! This young lady is a prodigy and will amaze you at every single song she does, including her originals!! You should see her performances from Norway's Got Talent when she was 7 and won it at age 8!

"Welcome to the wonderful world of Angelina Jordan!" I have a feeling you'll be joining all of this around the world on her musical journey and if and when you do it will be an experience you will not believe. Not only is she an extraordinary talent she is a very special human being and when you listen to her sing 'for you' you will be touched by her soulfulness. Goose bumps, tearing up (with the urge to cry) and not being able to speak normally immediately after she sings are some of the things which millions of us around the world have experienced. I'll let Angelina take it from here. 🙂 Does she have a particular genre when she sings? No. She does it all. I hope you like to read because, get ready, some of the comments will be 'lengthy' but I strongly encourage you to read them because there is so much to tell you about 'who she is'.
How is that possible? How, because it is Angelina Jordan! 9 years and 2 months here and it was her own arrangement! She is from Norway with an Iran Grandmother (Maternal) who was a child prodigy herself (artist and poet), her Maternal Grandfather was Japanese and her father is Swedish! She was speaking 3 languages (Norwegian, Farsi,. and English before the age of 5! To list all of Angelina's accomplishments would fill a large book! And she is only 18 now!
It's Angelina's world, and we are amazed. She is now 18, and a gorgeous Jazz/pop singer...But start with more of her early stuff, like I Who Have Nothing, her first song in studio at age 6. By the way, the writing she is doing at the beginning was her arrangement, which she presented to the band leader. The guy on the candle created this song, "Screaming" Jay Hawkins. She was 9, but she won Norway's Got Talent at 7 to 8, and is Norways youngest published author.
She is the best and most authentic vocalist/songwriter in the world right now, in my opinion. Meaning what you hear is what you get and it's 100% her, no software or corrections. THE REAL DEAL. Enjoy your journey
I'm 58 and mostly stayed with 60's-early 80's Rock, Top 40 and Soul/R&B. Since discovering Angelina and getting used to jazz embellishments and styles, I've barely listened to anything else in the last 5 years. I've listened to her sing for at least a thousand hours as well as watched many hundreds of hours of reactions to her. I and other fans believe she is an Empath that can feel every drop of emotion in a song she listens to, she re-interprets and retells the songs story in her style which is always beautiful! Many fans say "If you want to hear a great song - listen to the original. If you want to FEEL it, listen to Angelina cover it."
th-cam.com/video/pefir9zeOnw/w-d-xo.html, this is how. Angelina is mature way beyond her young years, and has done cover songs for a few artists so far: From 18 months with a portion of a Whitney Huston song in her crib while holding a microphone almost as big as she was ( baby Angelina video at 18 months ,( th-cam.com/video/pefir9zeOnw/w-d-xo.html ) , to now 18 years old with two Peace prize performances one before her teen years and one in her later teen years' , here is a short list of about 80 different artist she has already covered with absolute mastery and even improving on a great majority of them , while still a pre-teen and barely into her teen years as well. : Adele, A'Ha, Alan Walker, Amy Winehouse, Andy Williams, Aretha Franklin, Audrey Hepburn, Avicii , Bill Withers, Billie Holiday, Bing Crosby , Bobby Vinton, Cass Elliot, Charles Aznavour , Charlie Chaplin, Cher, Chris Isaac, Dean Martin, Dinah Washington , Dolly Parton , Doris Day , Duffy, Dusty Springfield , Ella Fitzgerald, Elton John, Elvis, Estelle, Ethel Merman , Etta James, Frank Sinatra, Frankie Valle, Fred Astaire, Freddie Mercury , Gene Autry , Gloria Gaynor , Halsey, Harry Belafonte , Jackson 5, James Brown, Jim Reeves , Jimmmie Boyd , John Legend, Josh Groban , Judy Garland , Julie London , Lana Del Rey, Leslie Gore, Lionel Ritchie, Lou Rawls , Louis Armstrong, Mamas and the Papas, Maria Carey , Marshmello, Michael Buble, Michael Jackson, Miley Cyrus , Nancy Sinatra, Nancy Wilson , Nat King Cole , Nina Simone, November Ultra, Paloma Faith, Patsy Cline, Perry Como , Queen, Ray Charles, Rihanna , Roberta Flack, Robyn , Ruby & the Romantics, Sam Smith , Screamin' Jay Hawkins , Selena Gomez , Shirley Bassey, Sia , The Beatles , The Righteous Brothers, The Weekend, Tom Jones, Vaughan Monroe , Whitney Houston, Willie Nelson.

Happy Halloween!! Thanks for getting to my request so quickly. Angelina was just weeks past her 9th birthday and was already a national treasure in Norway, after winning Norway's Got Talent at age 8. Angelina is 18 now and keeps getting better. *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 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 never learned the orphan's name but called her Princess. The orphan girl replied, "princesses live in castles, we live in ruins". Angelina titled her song about this story, "Princess of Ruins". 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. PLEASE PURCHASE Angelina’s book from her merchandise store on her official website.
@@AfterDarkBoys Her book, is only available in E-book form here in the USA. The hard copy is only available in Norway and they won't ship it out of the country. Thankfully I made a friend on TH-cam from Oslo. Easiest way to get to Angelina's merch is by clicking on a link in the description of her official videos. Then click "Explore" to find the book.
You have no idea of the world you've just entered! The world of Angelina Jordan is a great place to be. Nine years old here and she did the song's arrangement. In the intro you saw her give the director a few last minute details she wanted. Her band members call her, "The Boss". Great review!
What’s really hard to imagine is how a young woman she’s only 18 has compiled such a repertoire of genres and originals! She did start when she was 18 months…
Not really that hard to imagine. If i hadn’t come across her by chance a couple years ago while checking out some reaction videos, I still wouldn’t know who she is. She has a long list of accomplishments over the years but she is still relatively unknown to the general public. She will not have her big breakout until she starts to get more exposure and some steady U.S. radio play. Her name is getting out there little by little but it may still take a little while.
What’s really hard to comprehend is how a young woman she’s only 18 has compiled such a repertoire of genres, covers and originals! She did start when she was 18 months…

Welcome to the Jordan Journey! AJ is 9 here, by 10 she became a vocal beast and mastered her kid voice. Now at 18 Angelina's voice continues to grow and she is now mastering her young adult voice. She continues to be like no other and her storytelling is uncanny.
Angelina Jordan is a musical genius, and could sing like an adult soul and jazz singer at seven and eight when she won “Norway’s got talent!” She has hundreds of songs on TH-cam starting from when she was even younger, but you’d be amazed and thrilled! start with her performances on “Norway’s got talent” (if you want to just check out one, listen to “summertime“ which she sang for the finale. ) Also “fly me to the moon” when she was eight on the American TV show “the view”. both show you how she even sang with an adult voice back then. And she could sing many genres! Every cover you hear on TH-cam, will be jaw-dropping and touch your soul!! She’s 18 now, and has just come out with her new music which she wrote and arranged and is fantastic. But don’t cheat yourself by skipping to that! Listen to “stay” ( Rihanna’s) at 12 and “ 1 million years ago” ( Adele) -12 - mesmerizing!!! and you can’t leave Angelina without hearing her sing “Bohemian Rhapsody“ on America’s got talent - champions“. It’s her own arrangement, and after that one, you’ll never go back! Every song you’ll find on TH-cam by her brings many people chills… Tears… And astonishment! and she’s as beautiful A person as she is a singer!
Well, welcome to the AJ Rabbit Hole! She's 9 years old here. You are going to be bombarded by her fans called Angels that will fill you in on this music prodigy with an old soul from Norway. She's basically been a star since she was 7 years old. First and foremost, she is a jazz singer but has the ability to sing any genre. She also does all of her own musical arrangements. Even though she has been compared by many to Amy Winehouse, her major influence is Billie Holiday. Other influences are Dinah Washington, Louis Armstrong, Frank Sinatra, Elvis Presley, Etta James, Whitney Houston, and Adele to name a few. Her love of jazz came from her grandmother playing jazz music around her when she was young. In 2014, she entered at age 7 and won Norway's Got Talent at the age of 8. With her new found fame, she used it to appear on many shows from abroad and help raise millions for the less fortunate children around the world. At age 13, she was invited to participate on America's Got Talent: The Champions in 2020. She shocked the audience and the judges with her rendition of Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen. She received a standing ovation from all and got the Golden Buzzer from judge Heidi Klum to go straight to the Finals. Her performance went viral and even the group Queen responded on Twitter by saying, "Wow, what a rendition!" For Queen to respond to someone covering one of their songs is quite a feat since they rarely react to anyone. She did not win, but her fan base grew and expanded her popularity. Now 18 years old, living in Los Angeles, and currently signed with Republic Records, whose clients include Taylor Swift, Ariana Grande, The Weeknd, and Drake to name a few. Her family and Republic Records had agreed not to heavily promote her just yet so she can live as normal of a life as possible and finish her schooling. From what we know, she is finally done with school. She had a single that came out May 5th called Love Don't Let Me Go, a new EP called Old Enough that came out Friday, July 21st, 2023, a newly released video of her new song called Now I'm The Fool, and a new album of original music which will be coming out some time this year. Angelina released her new single, Our Time, and is fantastic! She returned back to Norway and performed at a number of sold out concerts in which fans from around the world came to see her. Many of the fans there said she sounded better live in person and was a once in a lifetime experience. On September 22, 2023, Angelina had her first U.S. concert that sold out in Portsmouth, New Hampshire. On December 11, 2023, she was asked to come back and perform at the Nobel Peace Prize Concert. She first performed at this prestigious event in 2014 when she was 8. On Feb.29th, 2024, she performed 2 shows on one night at the Westgate Las Vegas Resort and Casino. A film crew followed her and created a documentary of her called Angelina Jordan: 10 Years In The Making which premiered on her official TH-cam channel on March 29th, 2024. Currently, she is working with 3 time Grammy winner songwriter/producer Toby Gad creating new original music for her to sing. Gad has co-wrote and produced such big hits like All Of Me by John Legend, Big Girls Don't Cry by Fergie, If I Were A Boy by Beyonce, and Skyscraper by Demi Lovato and a number of others. Her fans call her The Barefoot Princess. She always performs with no shoes when she sings. Why? The reason is very special. When she was 6 years old, she was traveling with her family in Iran where she met a poor shoeless girl in the streets that was about her age. She made money by weighing people. After speaking with her for a few minutes, Angelina noticed the scars on the girl's feet and asked the girl what her dream is. The girl said she wanted to be a doctor but she couldn't because she had to make money for her family. Angelina did what came natural to her, she gave the little girl her shoes and told her to not give up on her dreams. The girl then asked Angelina what her dreams were, Angelina answered that she wanted to sing for the whole world, and the girl said she would pray for her success. Since then, Angelina has performed barefoot in honor of that little girl and to those who are less fortunate around the world. She keeps this promise to this day. One of the reasons why we love her so much!
Another spell was cast by 9yo Angelina. Welcome to “The World Of Angelina Jordan Astar” (full name). “The Barefoot Princess With The Velvet Voice And A Mona Lisa Smile”. Born Jan 10, 2006 in Oslo Norway. From her audition on Norway’s Got Talent (2014 - age 7 - Gloomy Sunday "Billy Holiday") through the final 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. This includes three originals song: “What Is Life”, “Oslo” and “Shield” Since then she has done many new covers and now her new singles "Million Miles" and “7th Heaven”, along with her movie soundtrack "Mercy" from the motion picture “The Hating Game”. As well as her brilliant version of Elvis’s “Suspicious Mind”. She released her latest album “Old Enough” and it is definitely some of her best stuff. My personal favorite is her cover of Lana Del Rey's "Born To Die". Although the soundtrack is really growing on me. Let’s analyze the video: 1st you see how small and cute she is. 2nd you see she is barefoot (story below) 3rd You see her making her “Wish List” of suggested changes to the song. 4th the band leader taking note of the changes. 5th Angelina is holding a candle with “Screemin’ Jay Hawkin’s (original artist 1956) picture on it. 6th the old soul in her voice. 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 talked 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 this day to remind herself (and the world) that there are still children in need. All book proceeds go to charity.
Angelina is 9 years old in this video. Angelina started singing when she was 1 1/2 years of age and there is video of her at that age sitting in a bed with a microphone in her hand singing Whitney Houston's "I will always love you ". You need to go back to when Angelina was 6 years old in the studio singing and recording a Tom Jones classic " I who have nothing " and work your way to current day. Angelina is 18 years old now as of January 10th 2024.
She is amazing, and mimicking Scream'in Jay Hawkings. You listen to the Original, by Scream'in Jay, and you will hear it. She is only doing that to pay Homage to him. (IMO) Great Post.
Angelina Jordan is an amazing vocalist she’s the best I’ve ever heard to be honest she’s 9 years old in this video and is currently 18 years old just released a new song Bad Valentine she has the official video on her official TH-cam channel and a jazzy version on Toby Gads TH-cam channel
Subscribed for your dive down the Angelina Jordan rabbit hole. You are going to love this. She is not only an incredible artist, she is a great person. You will have a lot of comments from her fans, who she calls her angels.
She was 9 years old when she personally rearranged this classic that was made most famous by Screamin' Jay Hawkins. Such was her involvement in the whole production, that the band referred to her as 'The Boss' in the studio.
I'm glad that you have now had the opportunity to enter into the world of the bare foot princess! But, this is only the beginning of the experience that awaits you if you explore the output that Angelina has produced between the ages of 6 and 18. You will be deluged with comments from AJ's extremely enthusiastic fan base who will have suggestions for what to do next and acquaint you with the wonderful history of this amazing young woman. If you so choose you have a plethora of opportunities. You could look at her performances at age 7 and 8 on Norway's got talent. Her Americas Got Talent rendition of "Bohemian Rhapsody" is a must see! You could explore her jazz concerts at ages 10 and 11 ("Feeling Good", "Lovin' You", "Diamonds are Forever" . . .}. You could watch any of her many beautiful at home videos accompanied only by guitar ("Stay", "Crazy", "How Great Thou Art" . . . }. Then there are her early originals ("What is Life", "Oslo", "Shield", "Seventh Heaven", "Million Miles"} and her covers done at 14 and 15 ("Billie Jean", "Easy on Me", "My Funny Valentine", "All I Ask" . . .). Not to mention her last couple of years with her Norwegian Concerts, appearance at the FIFA awards, and the release of her new EP, "Old Enough". Let's see; I left out her 2021 Christmas Concert, her performances in Seoul and Japan, her leaked recording of "Still Holding Out for You" and . . . . . Last December she performed "Unchained Melody".at the Nobel Peace Prize ceremonies. The performance is stunning! On February 29 she had two concerts in Las Vegas. Many of those songs are available on James Thiel’s channel (www.youtube.com/@summaEngineer). She is currently collaborating with Toby Gad and recently released two versions of “If I Were a Boy” and just released their original "Bad Valentine" in both a pop and jazz version. On September 20 she had another concert in Glendale, CA where she was joined by Toby, Scott Hoying and Jimmy Z. Many feel that AJ most shines in her live performances. Yes, Angelina is an amazing talent and a wondrous interpreter of songs. And, in addition to that, her whole story is chronicled in detail from 1.5 years old until today on TH-cam, TikTok, Instagram, and Facebook! As a result, many of us, especially the elders among us, have adopted this Norwegian girl as our honorary granddaughter and spend a bit of each day reading about, listening to, and taking pride in her growth as a singer and as a person.
Not bad for a 9 year old. Take a fifties classic song by Screaming Jay Hawkins, arrange the music and then sing like a 40 year old jazz singer. This girl is a gift to us all. Welcome to Angelina's world.
Born Angelina Jordan Astar on January 10, 2006 in Oslo, Norway to her Norwegian mother, Sara Astar and her Swedish father, Gerry Christian Slattman. Angelina started singing around 18 months of age, after listening to Whitney Houston on TH-cam. She quickly became obsessed with listening to music videos and her maternal grandmother, Mery Zamani got Angelina interested in classic jazz. Mery Zamani is Iranian and was a prodigy as an artist and poet while growing up in Iran. Angelina attended the Oslo Waldorf School and participated in the Oslo School of Music and Performing Arts after-school program, where starting around age 4, she had training in music but no vocal training. Her teachers were smart enough to not attempt to change what she was doing vocally. More recently she along with her grandmother have designed and made the clothing she wears on stage. 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 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. PLEASE PURCHASE Angelina’s book from her merchandise store on her official website, angelinajordanofficial Angelina, at age 6 and 7, did record a few songs in a recording studio at her school, most notably “I Who Have Nothing”, a truly remarkable performance for a 7 year old. At age 7, Angelina’s audition on Norway’s Got Talent, was a cover of Billie Holiday’s “Gloomy Sunday”, a song which was banned by a number of European countries during World War II because authorities worried the song would increase the suicide rate. Truly bizarre that this is the song to launch the career of a child musical prodigy. One of the judges on NGT cried. Angelina had turned 8 years old for her next performance on NGT, covering Billie Holiday’s “I’m a Fool to Want You” singing acapella which was required by NGT unless the singer also played an instrument while singing. This was the Judge’s cut round of the competition and was not performed in front of an audience. In the Semi Final round of NGT, Angelina sang “Bang Bang” which was written by Sonny Bono and was first performed by his wife Cher but is best known sung by Nancy Sinatra. The improvement in each performance is incredible even though there were only a couple months between them. In the Finals, Angelina did a cover of George Gershwin’s, “Summertime” and won the contest, capturing 46% of the votes from the ten finalists. When asked what she would like to do with the prize money she won (500,000 kroner or about $80,000), Angelina replied, “I want to give it to the poor children”. Angelina had become a star in her native Norway and her videos on TH-cam went viral. She gave a few concerts during the summer of 2014 while 8 years old. In December 2014, Angelina realized a life-long desire to sing at the Save the Children's Peace Prize Celebration which is part of the Noble Peace Prize celebration. Angelina’s family took her to United States, Brazil, Germany, France, United Kingdom, Russia, South Korea, Singapore among other corners of Earth, to perform for heads of state and to help raise money for charity. All before Angelina turned 14. At age 9, Angelina recorded a music video covering the 1956 Jay Hawkin’s classic, “I Put a Spell On You”. The video begins by showing Angelina writing her “wishes” for how she wants to perform the song. Angelina has always created her own arrangements for her cover songs. At age 10 and just a week before her 11th birthday, Angelina recorded a demo of “I’m Still Holding Out for You”. Her family never pursued having that recording officially released but someone leaked it on a TH-cam video. Thankfully, everyone involved with that song is now ok with the leaked version. Many angels (fans) believe this is one of Angelina’s best performances. When Angelina was 11, she performed a number of concerts in Norway with a jazz/rock band. Those concerts included up to 14 songs, each remarkably performed. Angelina seems to be at her best when on stage, never nervous, only 100% confident. Also at age 11, Angelina recorded her “It’s Magic” album which has, at times, been in the top 10 best selling jazz albums. On June 27, 2018, at age 12, Jordan performed Frank Sinatra “Fly Me to the Moon” for Quincy Jones in The O2 Arena in London. She has said that was the high point of her young career which was already in it’s 6th year. During 2018, Angelina lost her paternal grandfather, her friend Avicii and one of her idols, Aretha Franklin. She did a moving tribute for each. In 2019, Angelina accepted an invitation to compete in the 2nd season of America’s Got Talent (AGT), The Champions. She had, since age 3, wanted to perform for Simon Cowell and she earned his praise with her genius arrangement of “Bohemian Rhapsody”. The surviving members of Queen loved it so much they put a link to it on their Twitter. Angelina was eliminated after covering Elton John’s “Goodbye Yellow Brick Road”. Angelina’s family refused to sign any agreement with AGT. Angelina, before age 14, had covered more than 130 songs from 80 different artists, spanning at least 8 genres, all of which are available on TH-cam. Angelina has always made changes to each song she covers and often her version is preferred over the original. On TH-cam, search on The Complete Works of Angelina Jordan as Rusty Shackleford has put all songs in one file and has a complete playlist in the description of that video. The pandemic hit shortly after her performances on AGT and likely caused a change of plans by her family, most notably her Uncle Michael who is her manager. Her family agreed to a contract with Republic Records in August 2020. Republic Records declared Angelina Jordan their highest priority new artist. Reportedly her family requested Republic to allow her as normal a childhood as possible and therefore have yet to fully promote her. During the pandemic, Angelina was often seen buying meals for the homeless on the streets of Los Angeles. In November 2020, Angelina released “Million Miles” which she wrote after the passing of her beloved maternal grandfather. She dedicated the song to anyone who has ever lost a loved one. Angelina had previously released, 3 other original songs: “What is Life”, “Oslo” and “Shield” In April 2021, her original “7th Heaven” was released. A jazzy, danceable, inspiring song. Angelina has posted numerous short performances on Tik Tok and Instagram. Angelina had concerts in Norway in July 2022. In December 2022, Angelina performed at the Asian American Awards in Los Angeles. On 2/27/23, Angelina performed at the FIFA Awards ceremony in Paris, France, with a viewing audience in the millions. On May 5th, 2023, Angelina released her original "Love Don't Let Me Go". On July 23th she released her orginal EP “Old Enough”. Angelina perform Concert at the Music Hall in Portsmouth New Hampshire on Sept 22nd, 2023. On 10/27/23 she released her new orginal singiel “Our Time”. In November 2023, she was presented as a debutante at Le Bal des débutantes in Paris. On 12/08/23 she released new Marry Christmas EP “Driving Home for Christmas”. On 12/10/23 she sing in Oslo at the Nobel Peace Prize Celebration - Unchained Melody tribute to 2023 Nobel Peace Prize laureate Iranian human rights activist Narges Mohammadi. On february 29, 2024 she had two concerts in Las Vegas, Nevada,on the Elvis stage. On May 16, 2024, the first fruits of Angelina's cooperation with Tobi Gad were released. This German composer and record producer based in Los Angeles invited Angeline to an intimate concert at the Hotel Cafe JESSE & FRIENDS, the same one where Adel sang and was discovered. Tobi then took Angelina to London, where she performed His song If I Were A Boy at the London Palladium, and they recorded two versions of the song, Live At Saint James Church, and another studio version illustrated with a film from the streets of London. It seems that Tobi has started cooperation with Angelina and there are several joint songs in the pipeline. At the May concert in Los Angeles, one of them was presented: BAD VALENTINE. Angelina perform Concert at the Alex Theatre in Glendale, CA on Sept. 20th, 2024. On the same day she released her new orginal singiel in cooperation with Tobi Gad Bad Valentine.
A barefoot princess with a hypnotic voice. She was only 9 years old when she performed this song. It is her tribute to Screamin' Jay Hawkins, an American singer/songwriter. He wrote and performed it in 1956 and Angelina based her performance on the original, although she did make some subtle alterations to both lyrics and melody. As you continue your journey of discovering Angelina, you will come to realise that she does her own arrangements of most of the cover songs she sings. The differences may not be immediately discernible on first listening to them, but they are there. There may be a subtle change in tempo or tone, or more inflexion on some words, or a phrase may differ in pitch from the original. The amount of control that Angelina has over her voice cannot be measured. She never hurries a song. She sings in such a way that the emotions in the lyrics are felt by the listener. In this video did you notice:Angelina finishing some notes and handing them to the pianist, who smiled as he read them? They were her wishes (instructions) to the band how she wished therm to play the music. In the band, she was called a boss.
Great reaction to the very best singer in the world, my friend. Whenever someone tries to tell you differently, just go back and listen to this recording from when she was nine, and ask them who could do it better better 😂 Angelina won Norway's Got Talent when she was 8 and I have been following here since she was 7. She is 18 years old today and unbelievably good. I have subscribed to your channel for more reactions to her. Take care and stay safe😊 much love from Norway🇳🇴❤🇳🇴❤
Enjoyed your reaction! Nothing better than seeing someone hear Angelina for the first time. Even more impressive, she did the arrangement for this song herself (at age 9). Looking forward to seeing lots more Angelina on your channel!
Angelina is a Norwegian born citizen. She was born in Oslo, Norway on January 10, 2006. She won Norway’s Got Talent at eight years old. She was seven when she auditioned for this contest. She turned eight just before she won. Angelina is currently eighteen years old and she’s destined to achieve her long time dream of becoming an international Super Star.
Thanks for the wonderful first reaction with Angelina. This is one of the important steps to understand the singularity of Angelina's talent and also a great musical masterpiece. It's unreal like her, from a very young person, she choice to use her incredible passion and understanding for music in a splendid way, especially with these legendary songs. She is definitely the only 9-year-old girl who understands and has the courage and the ability to sing this song from Screaming' Jay, so imbued with his power, and reorganize it according to her musical sensibility and vision. I sincerely believe that this it's the most beautiful version of this song, over 60 years since it was written and there are much of versions of it, also interpreted by great singers. 💛🧡❤
LMAO, Welcome to the barefoot princess. Absolutely an angel sent from Heaven. I hope you continue on with her music. She will never cease to amaze you. Every thing she does is gold, hell I think platinum is worth more than gold, and she’s beyond platinum. I have been following her for over 10 years. I’m 56 years old, she is absolutely my favorite singer of all time.
For anybody new to Angelina, who wants to get to know her quickly, I created this playlist with 12 songs from age 7 to 18 (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 EP "Old Enough" of total 6 new original songs. 12. Bad Valentine, her latest original, just released on Sept. 20th, as a live preview in a small venue. 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": th-cam.com/play/PLddfS789jBCqMgW5xQeK97nibjJCeDme5.html She cites Billie 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.
Great reaction, and welcome to Angelina’s World. She is currently 18 yo. She was Nine when she recorded this song. You need to hear where she is today, she just released a Single called: Bad Valentines-The Jazz Version with Toby Gad (on the piano) called Bad Valentine - Piano Diaries. It is her newest song.
She was 9yrs old at the time of this recording. She won Norways Got Talent at age 7 and she's done much more since then. Her level of talent at such a young age is just crazy.
Hi , even if you already got some comments with good information allow me sending you my "standard newbies comment" (SNC) - maybe you can find some for you new information in it ;-) So, here is my SNC: Welcome to the universe of Angelina Jordan and thanks a billion for this nice reaction to her - I'm sure to hear more reactions to her from you! ...because it is... ...too late! From now on you are assimilated in Angelina's entourage! Resistance is futile... 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 you are hooked on listening her voice! Maybe you aren't aware of it yet... a legend says in rare cases there are humans who can resist.... but I can't believe it 😏
Every time it's a pleasure to watch people reacting to Angelina Jordan - especially when it is the first time - and I hope to see more of your reactions on Angelina Jordan... 😏 A little explanation: Her cover "I put a spell on you" b/w studio version at 9yo (th-cam.com/video/nwFloCPXzCs/w-d-xo.html - btw. she made most of her cover arrangements by herself!) based on the original from Screemin' Jay Hawkins (from 1956) - Live: th-cam.com/video/7kGPhpvqtOc/w-d-xo.html or another version of it: th-cam.com/video/orNpH6iyokI/w-d-xo.html and here a version from 1990 in Tokyo - I feel, this is like the version Angelina has taken as the model, but I don't know it ( ;-) ): th-cam.com/video/Bb9ag8bch_U/w-d-xo.html or as Audio-Studio-Version: th-cam.com/video/82cdnAUvsw8/w-d-xo.html) that's real fun - if you watch this too and may be after this watch Angelinas cover again you will find out that Angelinas cover is a real tribute to Jay Hawkins 😃 At the beginning you see her something writing on a sheet and a man reading it and smiles than.. in an interview this man, who was the "bandleader", said, this were some "wishes" from Angelina (she was every time very polite he said) for changes of her arrangement for the piano 😃 The candle you can see at about 0:12 shows a portrait of J. Hawkins - I think her grandma bought it at a concert in Tokyo ;) At 0:26 you can see the bassist smiling - I can imagine that he smiles about the expectable reactions of the listeners in the moment, when Angelina starts to sing at 0:30 😏 Btw. I read somewhere that her grandma was in person at a concert of SJH in Japan (as she, AJs mother and uncle lived there some years - AJs grandpa is Japanese) and there AJs grandma bought this candle as a souvenir ;) ...I hope this story isn't a HOAX 😃
Maybe you wonder, what videos you should next react to 😏 ... Furthermore there is a big pile of over 170 videos on TH-cam with Angelina Jordans rehearsals, covers and originals... and each and every one is worth to listen and to react to - even the very early recordings when she was 6 yo! She is born January 10th 2006 in Oslo/Norge (English is her 3rd language 😏), sung her first notes of a Whitney Houston song with 18 months (link see down), started researching the internet for Jazz 3 yo, entered Norske Talenter (Norwegian Got Talent) 7 yo and won it 8 yo, was on AGT The Champions (recorded Oct. 2019, aired Jan. 2020) where she didn't won - some rumours say because she/her mother didn't sign the contract with the enterprise of Simon Cowell for to stay independent - meanwhile she has signed with Republic Records (musicnorway.no/aktuelt/industry-talk-michael-astar ). Btw. her full name is Angelina Jordan Astar, but in most occasions she is introduced as Angelina Jordan - she herself answered in the audition of Norske Talenter her name is "Angelina Jordan"… 😏
First of all, here are the official channels of her and the most known fan club: Angelina Jordan Official - th-cam.com/channels/1Pwa4nFvIPbtYVLcBGDpjA.html Angelina Jordan Cover Channel - th-cam.com/channels/v-QOBc_N1xb8dTwqazD9Kg.html Angelina Jordan VEVO Channel - th-cam.com/channels/D9xBPlntT45VN6dY1LNhng.html Angelina Jordan Fanclub Mosarz - th-cam.com/channels/hM_lpT4shdnsez93QMJPig.html her website: www.angelinajordanofficial.com/ (on this web site you can find also her accounts on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter) her TikTok-channel: www.tiktok.com/@angelinajordana and the site of Republic Records with her introduction: www.republicrecords.com/artists/angelina-jordan

... here her "mini concert" from AGT the Champions (Watch out: With these videos other reactors have the most problems with copyright claims...): "Bohemian Rhapsody": th-cam.com/video/7gQljxeaNuM/w-d-xo.html "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road": th-cam.com/video/NVRWYEk8T3A/w-d-xo.html “Someone You Loved": th-cam.com/video/0go_TIm4jtI/w-d-xo.html ...and for those, who like to hear it with the audio from the rehearsal without the noise from the audience at the performance a version edited from pa1189j : th-cam.com/video/O6Jw-ETH1mA/w-d-xo.html
In the meanwhile there are some more live versions of her originals and some cover songs from her summer 2022 concerts like in Kurbadhagen... 😏 Besides she is mostly making her very own arrangement there are some very interesting videos of her, where she uses the original arrangement or a big one of someone else like "I Have Nothing" (Whitney Houston Tribute) th-cam.com/video/eTcvvO6B3Io/w-d-xo.html or "Fly Me To The Moon" in the arrangement of Quincy Jones (rehearsal with concert mixed audio for his birthday party in the O2 arena): th-cam.com/video/OMkwoqUNNkE/w-d-xo.html .
And here is a video where it is explained (with English subtitles) why she performs barefoot: th-cam.com/video/A-OKLslO74Y/w-d-xo.html and here an Interview in the Norwegian TV (with English subtitles) from 2015 after she has published her book about the story why she is barefoot when performing: th-cam.com/video/-cCLDY0CSZ8/w-d-xo.html
In addition to school she got also vocal training at the Oslo School of Music and Performing Arts after-school program (I read, that this school said, they couldn't teach her more stuff because she has all learned what she could learn in this school ;-) ) - and btw. she plays also grand piano, violin, flute and guitar, make her arrangements herself, wrote a book, sew clothes for herself (partly with art from her grandma like in her first AGT performance and in her music video "Shield"). So, she is a real all-rounder and I think all her fans are eager to see and hear what she is doing next...
All the other things like more recommendation, chronological playlists and so on you can read in the comments of the mega-fans like Fernando F., Rusty (AJ videos in chronological order th-cam.com/channels/55am_6Y5-Fj4ri8xOInstA.html), Andy Schnell, ...
Thanks a billion again for your reaction! … and see you soon with your next AJ reactions - with greetings from Berlin/Germany 😃 Best regards Andreas 😎
Welcome to Angilinas rabbit hole, im sure you will be flooded with info @ this Amazing Human you cant go wrong with anything by her , j7dt plan to be amazed everytime, you keep exploring her music and i will be here watching. ! Great reaction . .
The Norwegian singer, Angelina Jordan is a young legend, now living in LA. (curent 18 Years old ). She is an elegant artist for the big occasions. Which artist has sung for the Nobel Peace Prize twice, and she sings FIFA's official song before the upcoming World Cup. She has sung for 40,000 in concert with Nora Jones. She has helped to collect 21 million for children in need. Performed for many countries' heads of state on many big occasions. Concert in Las Vegas, with a number of other live concerts. Signed record deal with "Republic Records" at only 14 years old. The list is almost endless ... She is so talented that no one can ignore her, and together with Rebpublic Records, she actually sets the pace herself to total worldfame . Although she herself is an 18-year-old young lady, her taste in music is quality, and not just high bass in the stomach.When the next James Bond film is to be made, who do you think is in the spotlight for a possible theme song? The list of what Angelina has already been involved in is already so extensive that only a deep dive into her performances has to be searched online by yourself. It is too extreme to almost believe! All important people in the music industry know who she is and what she is good at on big occasions. I don't think anyone has the guts to suggest to her a fast track that doesn't suit her. Her integrity is too strong for that! - The remaining members of Queen allowed her to copyright her arrangement of Bohemian Rhapsody! (Translated by Google) Today (18 years old) Angelina Jordan is no longer a talent, but a world-class singer!
I love first reactions to Angelina Jordan.
Me too👍
Absolutely!
Checking out first time reactors to Angelina Jordan's version by of "I Put A Spell On You ",has been a hobby of mine since 2022
… Phenomenal!! … Absolutely world class!! ✨💎✨ Thank you
The Angels will come and more than fill you in. She’s 9 here.
❤️❤️❤️❤️👣 This was the first thing I saw by her as well, maybe 15 or so months ago. I had the exact same reaction as you. She was 9 years and two months old here. She will be 19 next January 10th. And she has gotten better every year from here! I just flew out to LA last month and back home to Texas the same evening just to see her live. It was hands down the best concert I have ever been to, and I am 65. The amazing thing about this young lady is that she not only sings like a goddess, but she is kindhearted and humble as well. Did I mention that she is also gracious and pure class? No skimpy costumes, no vulgar lyrics or performances, just pure classy magical singing. She is the most skilled and versatile singer I have ever heard. She is Norwegian, by the way, and English is her third or fourth language. She always performs barefoot, but not for any reason you will probably guess. I will leave it for someone else to tell the story, but she became the youngest published author in Norway when she wrote a book about it at 9 or 10. She has helped raise millions for charities starting at 8 when she won Norway's Got Talent competing against adults! When asked what she wanted to do with the pretty large prize money, she said she wanted to give it to poor children. Her family protected her from the music industry after this , wanting her to have a normal childhood, well as normal as traveling all over the world to sing allowed. Reportedly, they even turned down Disney. They permitted her to sing only during summer, at charitable events, and otherwise not in school. There are around 200 videos on TH-cam of her. Many are not on her two official channels, so don't think that's all there is. I still don't know how what you just watched is possible, but I am thrilled that it was. I just subbed in hopes of seeing further reactions to Angelina and believe me when I say that this is far from the only surprising and astounding thing you will see and hear.
She was nine in this video. She is Norwegian and won Norway's got talent in 2014 aged 7/8....AJ's talent is stunning. I guarantee you if you follow her you will not be disappointed. Respect from Ireland 🇮🇪
The Amazing Angelina Jordan .
Fast forward 9 years and you won't believe how good she is !!!!
Excellent reaction and Welcome to Angelina World of Music! Your life is about to change for the better forever, God Bless!
Liked & subed for more Angelina reactions. Everything she sings turns to gold. Never seen anything like her before, ever!
Amazing, phenomenal, fantastic, just aren't enough to describe her talent. I never heard of her. Stunning!
Time to go binge on more than 200 recording and endless opportunities to be surprised.
Welcome to the world of Angelina. 😊
I am addicted to Angelina. 😊❤
Thanks. She is incredible awesome. Still - at 18 she take your breath
For I Put A Spell On You - Angelina was 9 years old - Her nationality is Norwegian but is fluent in English even at this age - This song was not arranged for her - she wrote the vocal arrangement based on listening to the original Screamin' Jay Hawkins version and communicated to the band how she wanted it to be played - in fact, at the beginning of the video you see Angelina writing down some last-minute changes and it is read by the bandleader. You also notice that her own handwritten notes are on the music stand in front of her as she sings. For more insight into how Angelina works, here is a rehearsal video with some of the same band members at the same age (9 yrs old) - You will see that she is aware of what each musician is doing and communicates to them what she wants to do. The first thing she says is that she wants to start, followed by her saying she wants to start over, later she tells the pianist that the key is too low and that she wants to raise it a half-tone, then at the end of the song she changes the ending on the fly. The spoken language is Norwegian: th-cam.com/video/80f3t3dmBbk/w-d-xo.html
Sorrry but no :
The guy reading her handwriting is not the band leader, it is the sound engineer. She wrote the lyrics she wanted to sing, nothing to,do,with instruction to the musicians.
On « portrait of a child » she miss the beginning and ask the musicians when she had to start ( you ça see them waving at her when it is time to begin, not,the opposit). There is no key change on all the song, she missed the end (had to sing it low) and ask to do do,it again to sing the end correctly.
I’m anAJ big fan but I know music and arrangements and there is no need to add legends to her … like « she play guitar and piano and flute », anyone who learned a bit of guitar or piano can do better …
It don’t help her and she don’t need it….. 🙂
Um vídeo simples, mas um espetáculo notável. Angelina, cantou, interpretou e de sobra atuou como uma grande artista. O grupo musical é excelente. Praticamente é uns dos vídeos da minha preferencia. Angelina Jordan "Diva" 👏👏😘😘
How is it possible? Because she is Angelina Jordan.
I couldn't click on this fast enough! This is a whole other rabbit hole for you to deep dive into! This young lady is a prodigy and will amaze you at every single song she does, including her originals!! You should see her performances from Norway's Got Talent when she was 7 and won it at age 8!

Good rabbit hole to jump into. Her hands will definitely help you learn more about her. She's amazing ❤❤
"Welcome to the wonderful world of Angelina Jordan!" I have a feeling you'll be joining all of this around the world on her musical journey and if and when you do it will be an experience you will not believe. Not only is she an extraordinary talent she is a very special human being and when you listen to her sing 'for you' you will be touched by her soulfulness. Goose bumps, tearing up (with the urge to cry) and not being able to speak normally immediately after she sings are some of the things which millions of us around the world have experienced.
I'll let Angelina take it from here. 🙂 Does she have a particular genre when she sings? No. She does it all. I hope you like to read because, get ready, some of the comments will be 'lengthy' but I strongly encourage you to read them because there is so much to tell you about 'who she is'.
How is that possible? How, because it is Angelina Jordan! 9 years and 2 months here and it was her own arrangement! She is from Norway with an Iran Grandmother (Maternal) who was a child prodigy herself (artist and poet), her Maternal Grandfather was Japanese and her father is Swedish! She was speaking 3 languages (Norwegian, Farsi,. and English before the age of 5! To list all of Angelina's accomplishments would fill a large book! And she is only 18 now!
Angelina Jordan was just 9 years and 1 month old, based on a post and picture of them in that studio, on X, with that date. Totally amazing! ❤
9 years old when she recorded this....Start at 7 years and follow her progress through the years....
It's Angelina's world, and we are amazed. She is now 18, and a gorgeous Jazz/pop singer...But start with more of her early stuff, like I Who Have Nothing, her first song in studio at age 6. By the way, the writing she is doing at the beginning was her arrangement, which she presented to the band leader. The guy on the candle created this song, "Screaming" Jay Hawkins. She was 9, but she won Norway's Got Talent at 7 to 8, and is Norways youngest published author.
She is the best and most authentic vocalist/songwriter in the world right now, in my opinion. Meaning what you hear is what you get and it's 100% her, no software or corrections. THE REAL DEAL. Enjoy your journey
I agree, her bohemian rhapsody is the best cover ever

Yuuur! 💯
I'm 58 and mostly stayed with 60's-early 80's Rock, Top 40 and Soul/R&B. Since discovering Angelina and getting used to jazz embellishments and styles, I've barely listened to anything else in the last 5 years. I've listened to her sing for at least a thousand hours as well as watched many hundreds of hours of reactions to her.
I and other fans believe she is an Empath that can feel every drop of emotion in a song she listens to, she re-interprets and retells the songs story in her style which is always beautiful! Many fans say "If you want to hear a great song - listen to the original. If you want to FEEL it, listen to Angelina cover it."
Loved your reaction!! It’s second to my seeing this for the first time again!!👍🏼🤗💞🎼

At 9 years old, it really is wild how mature her voice sounded. At 18-ish now, her voice is just so much better with very distinct qualities.
Happy Halloween!! Thanks for getting to my request so quickly. Angelina was just weeks past her 9th birthday and was already a national treasure in Norway, after winning Norway's Got Talent at age 8. Angelina is 18 now and keeps getting better.
*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 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 never learned the orphan's name but called her Princess. The orphan girl replied, "princesses live in castles, we live in ruins". Angelina titled her song about this story, "Princess of Ruins".
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. PLEASE PURCHASE Angelina’s book from her merchandise store on her official website.
Thank you for sharing this about her. I'm crying right now at her compassion and heart. In a good way.
@@Kepi_Kei Thanks for your reply. Angelina is a very humble and empathic young lady. She calls her fans, her angels.
Wow, such an Incredible story. Thanks for sharing this. I had no idea. I will certainly go find her book. THanks again!
@@AfterDarkBoys Her book, is only available in E-book form here in the USA. The hard copy is only available in Norway and they won't ship it out of the country. Thankfully I made a friend on TH-cam from Oslo. Easiest way to get to Angelina's merch is by clicking on a link in the description of her official videos. Then click "Explore" to find the book.
@@andyschnell58 The hard copy only available in Norway---is that the English version?
Angelina is just amazing, she really is an angel, both in voice and deeds.
On top of the astonishing vocals, she has an impressing attetude. 😂❤
You have no idea of the world you've just entered! The world of Angelina Jordan is a great place to be. Nine years old here and she did the song's arrangement. In the intro you saw her give the director a few last minute details she wanted. Her band members call her, "The Boss". Great review!
O wow you found the prodigy. She is outstanding!! Greetings from South Africa
Welcome to the journey it's a blast.
Great reaction.
What’s really hard to imagine is how a young woman she’s only 18 has compiled such a repertoire of genres and originals! She did start when she was 18 months…
Welcome to our magical world
She is the best
It’s hard to imagine that people still haven’t heard of Angelina Jordan… I’m so glad I found her about seven years ago!!
Not really that hard to imagine. If i hadn’t come across her by chance a couple years ago while checking out some reaction videos, I still wouldn’t know who she is.
She has a long list of accomplishments over the years but she is still relatively unknown to the general public. She will not have her big breakout until she starts to get more exposure and some steady U.S. radio play. Her name is getting out there little by little but it may still take a little while.
What’s really hard to comprehend is how a young woman she’s only 18 has compiled such a repertoire of genres, covers and originals! She did start when she was 18 months…
To see a 9 year old girl sing on such high level is insane,sky's the limit for Angelina Jordan
She shocks vocal coaches, bohemian rhapsody is so good that Queen gave her the rights to that version. In this one she’s 9 years old 💜🫶🏻🇦🇺
‘Bohemian Rhapsody’ (Queen)…

Welcome to the Jordan Journey!
AJ is 9 here, by 10 she became a vocal beast and mastered her kid voice. Now at 18 Angelina's voice continues to grow and she is now mastering her young adult voice. She continues to be like no other and her storytelling is uncanny.
Angelina Jordan is a musical genius, and could sing like an adult soul and jazz singer at seven and eight when she won “Norway’s got talent!” She has hundreds of songs on TH-cam starting from when she was even younger, but you’d be amazed and thrilled! start with her performances on “Norway’s got talent” (if you want to just check out one, listen to “summertime“ which she sang for the finale. ) Also “fly me to the moon” when she was eight on the American TV show “the view”. both show you how she even sang with an adult voice back then. And she could sing many genres! Every cover you hear on TH-cam, will be jaw-dropping and touch your soul!! She’s 18 now, and has just come out with her new music which she wrote and arranged and is fantastic. But don’t cheat yourself by skipping to that! Listen to “stay” ( Rihanna’s) at 12 and “ 1 million years ago” ( Adele) -12 - mesmerizing!!! and you can’t leave Angelina without hearing her sing “Bohemian Rhapsody“ on America’s got talent - champions“. It’s her own arrangement, and after that one, you’ll never go back! Every song you’ll find on TH-cam by her brings many people chills… Tears… And astonishment! and she’s as beautiful A person as she is a singer!
9 yrs old and this is her own arrangement
Angelina Jordan - The Barefoot Princess of Jazz - Best Jazz singer in the world. Best singer in the world. IMO ❤👣👸🏻🎷
9 years old
Well, welcome to the AJ Rabbit Hole! She's 9 years old here. You are going to be bombarded by her fans called Angels that will fill you in on this music prodigy with an old soul from Norway. She's basically been a star since she was 7 years old. First and foremost, she is a jazz singer but has the ability to sing any genre. She also does all of her own musical arrangements. Even though she has been compared by many to Amy Winehouse, her major influence is Billie Holiday. Other influences are Dinah Washington, Louis Armstrong, Frank Sinatra, Elvis Presley, Etta James, Whitney Houston, and Adele to name a few. Her love of jazz came from her grandmother playing jazz music around her when she was young. In 2014, she entered at age 7 and won Norway's Got Talent at the age of 8. With her new found fame, she used it to appear on many shows from abroad and help raise millions for the less fortunate children around the world. At age 13, she was invited to participate on America's Got Talent: The Champions in 2020. She shocked the audience and the judges with her rendition of Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen. She received a standing ovation from all and got the Golden Buzzer from judge Heidi Klum to go straight to the Finals. Her performance went viral and even the group Queen responded on Twitter by saying, "Wow, what a rendition!" For Queen to respond to someone covering one of their songs is quite a feat since they rarely react to anyone. She did not win, but her fan base grew and expanded her popularity.
Now 18 years old, living in Los Angeles, and currently signed with Republic Records, whose clients include Taylor Swift, Ariana Grande, The Weeknd, and Drake to name a few. Her family and Republic Records had agreed not to heavily promote her just yet so she can live as normal of a life as possible and finish her schooling. From what we know, she is finally done with school. She had a single that came out May 5th called Love Don't Let Me Go, a new EP called Old Enough that came out Friday, July 21st, 2023, a newly released video of her new song called Now I'm The Fool, and a new album of original music which will be coming out some time this year. Angelina released her new single, Our Time, and is fantastic! She returned back to Norway and performed at a number of sold out concerts in which fans from around the world came to see her. Many of the fans there said she sounded better live in person and was a once in a lifetime experience. On September 22, 2023, Angelina had her first U.S. concert that sold out in Portsmouth, New Hampshire. On December 11, 2023, she was asked to come back and perform at the Nobel Peace Prize Concert. She first performed at this prestigious event in 2014 when she was 8. On Feb.29th, 2024, she performed 2 shows on one night at the Westgate Las Vegas Resort and Casino. A film crew followed her and created a documentary of her called Angelina Jordan: 10 Years In The Making which premiered on her official TH-cam channel on March 29th, 2024. Currently, she is working with 3 time Grammy winner songwriter/producer Toby Gad creating new original music for her to sing. Gad has co-wrote and produced such big hits like All Of Me by John Legend, Big Girls Don't Cry by Fergie, If I Were A Boy by Beyonce, and Skyscraper by Demi Lovato and a number of others.
Her fans call her The Barefoot Princess. She always performs with no shoes when she sings. Why? The reason is very special. When she was 6 years old, she was traveling with her family in Iran where she met a poor shoeless girl in the streets that was about her age. She made money by weighing people. After speaking with her for a few minutes, Angelina noticed the scars on the girl's feet and asked the girl what her dream is. The girl said she wanted to be a doctor but she couldn't because she had to make money for her family. Angelina did what came natural to her, she gave the little girl her shoes and told her to not give up on her dreams. The girl then asked Angelina what her dreams were, Angelina answered that she wanted to sing for the whole world, and the girl said she would pray for her success. Since then, Angelina has performed barefoot in honor of that little girl and to those who are less fortunate around the world. She keeps this promise to this day. One of the reasons why we love her so much!
#ANGELINAJORDAN
I love first reactions to this genius. Welcome to our world (Angels).❤
Another spell was cast by 9yo Angelina.
Welcome to “The World Of Angelina Jordan Astar” (full name). “The Barefoot Princess With The Velvet Voice And A Mona Lisa Smile”. Born Jan 10, 2006 in Oslo Norway. From her audition on Norway’s Got Talent (2014 - age 7 - Gloomy Sunday "Billy Holiday") through the final 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. This includes three originals song: “What Is Life”, “Oslo” and “Shield” Since then she has done many new covers and now her new singles "Million Miles" and “7th Heaven”, along with her movie soundtrack "Mercy" from the motion picture “The Hating Game”. As well as her brilliant version of Elvis’s “Suspicious Mind”. She released her latest album “Old Enough” and it is definitely some of her best stuff. My personal favorite is her cover of Lana Del Rey's "Born To Die". Although the soundtrack is really growing on me.
Let’s analyze the video:
1st you see how small and cute she is.
2nd you see she is barefoot (story below)
3rd You see her making her “Wish List” of suggested changes to the song.
4th the band leader taking note of the changes.
5th Angelina is holding a candle with “Screemin’ Jay Hawkin’s (original artist 1956) picture on it.
6th the old soul in her voice.
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 talked 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 this day to remind herself (and the world) that there are still children in need. All book proceeds go to charity.
Angelina is 9 years old in this video. Angelina started singing when she was 1 1/2 years of age and there is video of her at that age sitting in a bed with a microphone in her hand singing Whitney Houston's "I will always love you ". You need to go back to when Angelina was 6 years old in the studio singing and recording a Tom Jones classic " I who have nothing " and work your way to current day. Angelina is 18 years old now as of January 10th 2024.
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
She is amazing, and mimicking Scream'in Jay Hawkings. You listen to the Original, by Scream'in Jay, and you will hear it. She is only doing that to pay Homage to him. (IMO) Great Post.
Angelina Jordan is an amazing vocalist she’s the best I’ve ever heard to be honest she’s 9 years old in this video and is currently 18 years old just released a new song Bad Valentine she has the official video on her official TH-cam channel and a jazzy version on Toby Gads TH-cam channel
You're HOOKED good.
Subscribed for your dive down the Angelina Jordan rabbit hole. You are going to love this. She is not only an incredible artist, she is a great person. You will have a lot of comments from her fans, who she calls her angels.
Enjoy your trip thru Angelina land, a surprise at every song and each one is better
You've only just begun.....
And Angelina adds another one. She was 9 here, 18 now. You will never forget any time you spend listening to her.
She was 9 years old when she personally rearranged this classic that was made most famous by Screamin' Jay
Hawkins. Such was her involvement in the whole production, that the band referred to her as 'The Boss' in the
studio.
You've just been Angelina-ed!!! Welcome, she'll amaze you every time, if you've just discovered her, you're in for a real treat...enjoy!
I'm glad that you have now had the opportunity to enter into the world of the bare foot princess! But, this is only the beginning of the experience that awaits you if you explore the output that Angelina has produced between the ages of 6 and 18. You will be deluged with comments from AJ's extremely enthusiastic fan base who will have suggestions for what to do next and acquaint you with the wonderful history of this amazing young woman.
If you so choose you have a plethora of opportunities. You could look at her performances at age 7 and 8 on Norway's got talent. Her Americas Got Talent rendition of "Bohemian Rhapsody" is a must see! You could explore her jazz concerts at ages 10 and 11 ("Feeling Good", "Lovin' You", "Diamonds are Forever" . . .}. You could watch any of her many beautiful at home videos accompanied only by guitar ("Stay", "Crazy", "How Great Thou Art" . . . }. Then there are her early originals ("What is Life", "Oslo", "Shield", "Seventh Heaven", "Million Miles"} and her covers done at 14 and 15 ("Billie Jean", "Easy on Me", "My Funny Valentine", "All I Ask" . . .). Not to mention her last couple of years with her Norwegian Concerts, appearance at the FIFA awards, and the release of her new EP, "Old Enough". Let's see; I left out her 2021 Christmas Concert, her performances in Seoul and Japan, her leaked recording of "Still Holding Out for You" and . . . . .
Last December she performed "Unchained Melody".at the Nobel Peace Prize ceremonies. The performance is stunning! On February 29 she had two concerts in Las Vegas. Many of those songs are available on James Thiel’s channel (www.youtube.com/@summaEngineer). She is currently collaborating with Toby Gad and recently released two versions of “If I Were a Boy” and just released their original "Bad Valentine" in both a pop and jazz version. On September 20 she had another concert in Glendale, CA where she was joined by Toby, Scott Hoying and Jimmy Z. Many feel that AJ most shines in her live performances.
Yes, Angelina is an amazing talent and a wondrous interpreter of songs. And, in addition to that, her whole story is chronicled in detail from 1.5 years old until today on TH-cam, TikTok, Instagram, and Facebook! As a result, many of us, especially the elders among us, have adopted this Norwegian girl as our honorary granddaughter and spend a bit of each day reading about, listening to, and taking pride in her growth as a singer and as a person.
Young man we all know her just wait and see
Not bad for a 9 year old. Take a fifties classic song by Screaming Jay Hawkins, arrange the music and then sing like a 40 year old jazz singer. This girl is a gift to us all. Welcome to Angelina's world.
You got me, I subscribed. I saw your Suspicious Minds reaction tonight and now watched this, your first one. You get her!
Born Angelina Jordan Astar on January 10, 2006 in Oslo, Norway to her Norwegian mother, Sara Astar and her Swedish father, Gerry Christian Slattman.
Angelina started singing around 18 months of age, after listening to Whitney Houston on TH-cam. She quickly became obsessed with listening to music videos and her maternal grandmother, Mery Zamani got Angelina interested in classic jazz.
Mery Zamani is Iranian and was a prodigy as an artist and poet while growing up in Iran. Angelina attended the Oslo Waldorf School and participated in the Oslo School of Music and Performing Arts after-school program, where starting around age 4, she had training in music but no vocal training. Her teachers were smart enough to not attempt to change what she was doing vocally. More recently she along with her grandmother have designed and made the clothing she wears on stage.
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 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. PLEASE PURCHASE Angelina’s book from her merchandise store on her official website, angelinajordanofficial Angelina, at age 6 and 7, did record a few songs in a recording studio at her school, most notably “I Who Have Nothing”, a truly remarkable performance for a 7 year old. At age 7, Angelina’s audition on Norway’s Got Talent, was a cover of Billie Holiday’s “Gloomy Sunday”, a song which was banned by a number of European countries during World War II because authorities worried the song would increase the suicide rate. Truly bizarre that this is the song to launch the career of a child musical prodigy. One of the judges on NGT cried. Angelina had turned 8 years old for her next performance on NGT, covering Billie Holiday’s “I’m a Fool to Want You” singing acapella which was required by NGT unless the singer also played an instrument while singing. This was the Judge’s cut round of the competition and was not performed in front of an audience. In the Semi Final round of NGT, Angelina sang “Bang Bang” which was written by Sonny Bono and was first performed by his wife Cher but is best known sung by Nancy Sinatra. The improvement in each performance is incredible even though there were only a couple months between them. In the Finals, Angelina did a cover of George Gershwin’s, “Summertime” and won the contest, capturing 46% of the votes from the ten finalists. When asked what she would like to do with the prize money she won (500,000 kroner or about $80,000), Angelina replied, “I want to give it to the poor children”. Angelina had become a star in her native Norway and her videos on TH-cam went viral. She gave a few concerts during the summer of 2014 while 8 years old. In December 2014, Angelina realized a life-long desire to sing at the Save the Children's Peace Prize Celebration which is part of the Noble Peace Prize celebration. Angelina’s family took her to United States, Brazil, Germany, France, United Kingdom, Russia, South Korea, Singapore among other corners of Earth, to perform for heads of state and to help raise money for charity. All before Angelina turned 14. At age 9, Angelina recorded a music video covering the 1956 Jay Hawkin’s classic, “I Put a Spell On You”. The video begins by showing Angelina writing her “wishes” for how she wants to perform the song. Angelina has always created her own arrangements for her cover songs. At age 10 and just a week before her 11th birthday, Angelina recorded a demo of “I’m Still Holding Out for You”. Her family never pursued having that recording officially released but someone leaked it on a TH-cam video. Thankfully, everyone involved with that song is now ok with the leaked version. Many angels (fans) believe this is one of Angelina’s best performances. When Angelina was 11, she performed a number of concerts in Norway with a jazz/rock band. Those concerts included up to 14 songs, each remarkably performed. Angelina seems to be at her best when on stage, never nervous, only 100% confident. Also at age 11, Angelina recorded her “It’s Magic” album which has, at times, been in the top 10 best selling jazz albums. On June 27, 2018, at age 12, Jordan performed Frank Sinatra “Fly Me to the Moon” for Quincy Jones in The O2 Arena in London. She has said that was the high point of her young career which was already in it’s 6th year. During 2018, Angelina lost her paternal grandfather, her friend Avicii and one of her idols, Aretha Franklin. She did a moving tribute for each. In 2019, Angelina accepted an invitation to compete in the 2nd season of America’s Got Talent (AGT), The Champions. She had, since age 3, wanted to perform for Simon Cowell and she earned his praise with her genius arrangement of “Bohemian Rhapsody”. The surviving members of Queen loved it so much they put a link to it on their Twitter. Angelina was eliminated after covering Elton John’s “Goodbye Yellow Brick Road”. Angelina’s family refused to sign any agreement with AGT. Angelina, before age 14, had covered more than 130 songs from 80 different artists, spanning at least 8 genres, all of which are available on TH-cam. Angelina has always made changes to each song she covers and often her version is preferred over the original. On TH-cam, search on The Complete Works of Angelina Jordan as Rusty Shackleford has put all songs in one file and has a complete playlist in the description of that video. The pandemic hit shortly after her performances on AGT and likely caused a change of plans by her family, most notably her Uncle Michael who is her manager. Her family agreed to a contract with Republic Records in August 2020. Republic Records declared Angelina Jordan their highest priority new artist. Reportedly her family requested Republic to allow her as normal a childhood as possible and therefore have yet to fully promote her. During the pandemic, Angelina was often seen buying meals for the homeless on the streets of Los Angeles. In November 2020, Angelina released “Million Miles” which she wrote after the passing of her beloved maternal grandfather. She dedicated the song to anyone who has ever lost a loved one. Angelina had previously released, 3 other original songs: “What is Life”, “Oslo” and “Shield” In April 2021, her original “7th Heaven” was released. A jazzy, danceable, inspiring song. Angelina has posted numerous short performances on Tik Tok and Instagram. Angelina had concerts in Norway in July 2022. In December 2022, Angelina performed at the Asian American Awards in Los Angeles. On 2/27/23, Angelina performed at the FIFA Awards ceremony in Paris, France, with a viewing audience in the millions. On May 5th, 2023, Angelina released her original "Love Don't Let Me Go". On July 23th she released her orginal EP “Old Enough”.
Angelina perform Concert at the Music Hall in Portsmouth New Hampshire on Sept 22nd, 2023. On 10/27/23 she released her new orginal singiel “Our Time”. In November 2023, she was presented as a debutante at Le Bal des débutantes in Paris. On 12/08/23 she released new Marry Christmas EP “Driving Home for Christmas”. On 12/10/23 she sing in Oslo at the Nobel Peace Prize Celebration - Unchained Melody tribute to 2023 Nobel Peace Prize laureate Iranian human rights activist Narges Mohammadi. On february 29, 2024 she had two concerts in Las Vegas, Nevada,on the Elvis stage.
On May 16, 2024, the first fruits of Angelina's cooperation with Tobi Gad were released. This German composer and record producer based in Los Angeles invited Angeline to an intimate concert at the Hotel Cafe JESSE & FRIENDS, the same one where Adel sang and was discovered. Tobi then took Angelina to London, where she performed His song If I Were A Boy at the London Palladium, and they recorded two versions of the song, Live At Saint James Church, and another studio version illustrated with a film from the streets of London. It seems that Tobi has started cooperation with Angelina and there are several joint songs in the pipeline. At the May concert in Los Angeles, one of them was presented: BAD VALENTINE.
Angelina perform Concert at the Alex Theatre in Glendale, CA on Sept. 20th, 2024. On the same day she released her new orginal singiel in cooperation with Tobi Gad Bad Valentine.
Angelina is the greatest singer on the planet. She will be on the Mt. Rushmore of singers, along with Linda Ronstadt
A barefoot princess with a hypnotic voice.
She was only 9 years old when she performed this song. It is her tribute to Screamin' Jay Hawkins, an American singer/songwriter. He wrote and performed it in 1956 and Angelina based her performance on the original, although she did make some subtle alterations to both lyrics and melody. As you continue your journey of discovering Angelina, you will come to realise that she does her own arrangements of most of the cover songs she sings. The differences may not be immediately discernible on first listening to them, but they are there. There may be a subtle change in tempo or tone, or more inflexion on some words, or a phrase may differ in pitch from the original. The amount of control that Angelina has over her voice cannot be measured. She never hurries a song. She sings in such a way that the emotions in the lyrics are felt by the listener. In this video did you notice:Angelina finishing some notes and handing them to the pianist, who smiled as he read them? They were her wishes (instructions) to the band how she wished therm to play the music. In the band, she was called a boss.
Great reaction to the very best singer in the world, my friend. Whenever someone tries to tell you differently, just go back and listen to this recording from when she was nine, and ask them who could do it better better 😂
Angelina won Norway's Got Talent when she was 8 and I have been following here since she was 7. She is 18 years old today and unbelievably good. I have subscribed to your channel for more reactions to her. Take care and stay safe😊 much love from Norway🇳🇴❤🇳🇴❤
Angelina is a Vocal Goddess!!!!
Enjoyed your reaction! Nothing better than seeing someone hear Angelina for the first time. Even more impressive, she did the arrangement for this song herself (at age 9). Looking forward to seeing lots more Angelina on your channel!
Greetings from Poland😀😀😀😀😀
Angelina is a Norwegian born citizen. She was born in Oslo, Norway on January 10, 2006. She won Norway’s Got Talent at eight years old. She was seven when she auditioned for this contest. She turned eight just before she won.
Angelina is currently eighteen years old and she’s destined to achieve her long time dream of becoming an international Super Star.
Great reaction and welcome to the wonderful rabbit hole of our barefooted princess Angelina Jordan ❤
New sub and best wishes from 🇧🇻
Her cover of suspicious minds is sublime 😙👌
Angelina is probably one of the best and most versatile vocal artist that ever visited this planet.
Thanks for the wonderful first reaction with Angelina. This is one of the important steps to understand the singularity of Angelina's talent and also a great musical masterpiece. It's unreal like her, from a very young person, she choice to use her incredible passion and understanding for music in a splendid way, especially with these legendary songs. She is definitely the only 9-year-old girl who understands and has the courage and the ability to sing this song from Screaming' Jay, so imbued with his power, and reorganize it according to her musical sensibility and vision. I sincerely believe that this it's the most beautiful version of this song, over 60 years since it was written and there are much of versions of it, also interpreted by great singers. 💛🧡❤
LMAO, Welcome to the barefoot princess. Absolutely an angel sent from Heaven. I hope you continue on with her music. She will never cease to amaze you. Every thing she does is gold, hell I think platinum is worth more than gold, and she’s beyond platinum. I have been following her for over 10 years. I’m 56 years old, she is absolutely my favorite singer of all time.
Here her sing I’m a fool to want you Angelina Jordan
Bienvenue dans le monde d'Angelina que nous aimons tant. J'espère que vous continuerez de découvrir Angelina. Alain from 🇫🇷
For anybody new to Angelina, who wants to get to know her quickly, I created this playlist with 12 songs from age 7 to 18 (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 EP "Old Enough" of total 6 new original songs.
12. Bad Valentine, her latest original, just released on Sept. 20th, as a live preview in a small venue.
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": th-cam.com/play/PLddfS789jBCqMgW5xQeK97nibjJCeDme5.html
She cites Billie 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.
Great reaction, and welcome to Angelina’s World. She is currently 18 yo. She was Nine when she recorded this song. You need to hear where she is today, she just released a Single called: Bad Valentines-The Jazz Version with Toby Gad (on the piano) called Bad Valentine - Piano Diaries. It is her newest song.
Best damn rabbit hole of music on the planet! Over 200 TH-cam vids age 6 to 18! She is 9 here...
Just for your infomation, with which everything will be said:
good
better
AJ
She was 9yrs old at the time of this recording. She won Norways Got Talent at age 7 and she's done much more since then. Her level of talent at such a young age is just crazy.
Hi ,
even if you already got some comments with good information allow me sending you my "standard newbies comment" (SNC) - maybe you can find some for you new information in it ;-)
So, here is my SNC:
Welcome to the universe of Angelina Jordan and thanks a billion for this nice reaction to her - I'm sure to hear more reactions to her from you! ...because it is...
...too late!
From now on you are assimilated in Angelina's entourage! Resistance is futile...
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 you are hooked on listening her voice! Maybe you aren't aware of it yet... a legend says in rare cases there are humans who can resist.... but I can't believe it 😏
Every time it's a pleasure to watch people reacting to Angelina Jordan - especially when it is the first time - and I hope to see more of your reactions on Angelina Jordan... 😏
A little explanation:
Her cover "I put a spell on you" b/w studio version at 9yo (th-cam.com/video/nwFloCPXzCs/w-d-xo.html - btw. she made most of her cover arrangements by herself!) based on the original from Screemin' Jay Hawkins (from 1956) - Live: th-cam.com/video/7kGPhpvqtOc/w-d-xo.html
or another version of it: th-cam.com/video/orNpH6iyokI/w-d-xo.html
and here a version from 1990 in Tokyo - I feel, this is like the version Angelina has taken as the model, but I don't know it ( ;-) ): th-cam.com/video/Bb9ag8bch_U/w-d-xo.html
or as Audio-Studio-Version: th-cam.com/video/82cdnAUvsw8/w-d-xo.html)
that's real fun - if you watch this too and may be after this watch Angelinas cover again you will find out that Angelinas cover is a real tribute to Jay Hawkins 😃
At the beginning you see her something writing on a sheet and a man reading it and smiles than.. in an interview this man, who was the "bandleader", said, this were some "wishes" from Angelina (she was every time very polite he said) for changes of her arrangement for the piano 😃
The candle you can see at about 0:12 shows a portrait of J. Hawkins - I think her grandma bought it at a concert in Tokyo ;)
At 0:26 you can see the bassist smiling - I can imagine that he smiles about the expectable reactions of the listeners in the moment, when Angelina starts to sing at 0:30 😏
Btw. I read somewhere that her grandma was in person at a concert of SJH in Japan (as she, AJs mother and uncle lived there some years - AJs grandpa is Japanese) and there AJs grandma bought this candle as a souvenir ;)
...I hope this story isn't a HOAX 😃
Maybe you wonder, what videos you should next react to 😏 ...
Furthermore there is a big pile of over 170 videos on TH-cam with Angelina Jordans rehearsals, covers and originals... and each and every one is worth to listen and to react to - even the very early recordings when she was 6 yo!
She is born January 10th 2006 in Oslo/Norge (English is her 3rd language 😏), sung her first notes of a Whitney Houston song with 18 months (link see down), started researching the internet for Jazz 3 yo, entered Norske Talenter (Norwegian Got Talent) 7 yo and won it 8 yo, was on AGT The Champions (recorded Oct. 2019, aired Jan. 2020) where she didn't won - some rumours say because she/her mother didn't sign the contract with the enterprise of Simon Cowell for to stay independent - meanwhile she has signed with Republic Records (musicnorway.no/aktuelt/industry-talk-michael-astar ).
Btw. her full name is Angelina Jordan Astar, but in most occasions she is introduced as Angelina Jordan - she herself answered in the audition of Norske Talenter her name is "Angelina Jordan"… 😏

In addition to school she got also vocal training at the Oslo School of Music and Performing Arts after-school program (I read, that this school said, they couldn't teach her more stuff because she has all learned what she could learn in this school ;-) ) - and btw. she plays also grand piano, violin, flute and guitar, make her arrangements herself, wrote a book, sew clothes for herself (partly with art from her grandma like in her first AGT performance and in her music video "Shield").
So, she is a real all-rounder and I think all her fans are eager to see and hear what she is doing next...
All the other things like more recommendation, chronological playlists and so on you can read in the comments of the mega-fans like Fernando F., Rusty (AJ videos in chronological order th-cam.com/channels/55am_6Y5-Fj4ri8xOInstA.html), Andy Schnell, ...

Welcome to the mother of all rabbit holes. If you are not careful she may change your life.
Exactly!
Thanks for your reaction to our barefoot princess and her 1000 voices! You just open Pandora box! ❤🇧🇻
Great reaction! More from her, please 🙂
Welcome to Angilinas rabbit hole, im sure you will be flooded with info @ this Amazing Human you cant go wrong with anything by her , j7dt plan to be amazed everytime, you keep exploring her music and i will be here watching. ! Great reaction . .
The Norwegian singer, Angelina Jordan is a young legend, now living in LA. (curent 18 Years old ). She is an elegant artist for the big occasions. Which artist has sung for the Nobel Peace Prize twice, and she sings FIFA's official song before the upcoming World Cup. She has sung for 40,000 in concert with Nora Jones. She has helped to collect 21 million for children in need. Performed for many countries' heads of state on many big occasions. Concert in Las Vegas, with a number of other live concerts. Signed record deal with "Republic Records" at only 14 years old. The list is almost endless ... She is so talented that no one can ignore her, and together with Rebpublic Records, she actually sets the pace herself to total worldfame . Although she herself is an 18-year-old young lady, her taste in music is quality, and not just high bass in the stomach.When the next James Bond film is to be made, who do you think is in the spotlight for a possible theme song? The list of what Angelina has already been involved in is already so extensive that only a deep dive into her performances has to be searched online by yourself. It is too extreme to almost believe!
All important people in the music industry know who she is and what she is good at on big occasions. I don't think anyone has the guts to suggest to her a fast track that doesn't suit her. Her integrity is too strong for that! - The remaining members of Queen allowed her to copyright her arrangement of Bohemian Rhapsody!

Today (18 years old) Angelina Jordan is no longer a talent, but a world-class singer!
I’m here for Angelina. ❤❤️❤️
I love this girl. ❤️❤️❤️
New sub. Please more Angelina. 🙏
Great reaction.
A year before this she won Norway's Got Talent, at eight years old. Singing Billie Holiday, and other blues/jazz standards
You're going to have a whole new set of people following you now!
