Hello everyone! I hope you're having a great day. Should i skip forward in time to listen to Angelina's new music or should i keep going on this sort of chronological order??
I'd go for more recent ones, and especially her originals. Maybe mix it up a bit. She has so far 9 original songs, 6 (co-)written by her (What is Life, Oslo, Shield, Million Miles, 7th Heaven, and Love Don't Let Me Go). Three more were written for her (Song For A, Above The Water, We're The Best). Here's a playlist with all her originals, many done on several occasions: th-cam.com/play/PLddfS789jBCows3lQAxFixqTj_rFbGFLM.html
I think that you should treat yourself to her latest original. It’s been out a little over two weeks. It’s called “Love Don’t Let Me Go “. Please check it out when you can. I would love to see your reaction to that one.
Most fans & vocal coaches believe that her voice was that of a fully grown vocalist buy this age (10), but in the 7 years since it has continued to be more refined, powerful & controlled & that will probably continue into her mid to late 20's, which is hard to comprehend. This is my favorite version of this song by anyone, male or female of any age.
Angelina was introduced to the song by dj Avicii when Angelina was 9 years old. Angelina did sing with him in a Volvo commercial. Angelina's full version here is based on Avicii's version but added Nina Simone horns and her own special ending.
10 was a banner year for her. Really started being her own way and less mimicking. Wait til you hear the very modern Im Still Holding Out for You, or the Ella standard , Every time We Say Goodbye, rooftop version where she stands right next to Ella and does her proud.
Thank you for another reaction to Angelina. In my opinion, she is the best singer in the world, and there are thousands of others who would agree with me. Every moment you spend featuring her on your channel will being you great emotional satisfaction. There are so many things I get from this performance. Some I recognised immediately and those I missed were brought to my attention by the more observant Angelina fans (her Angels) and I thank them for letting me know what I had missed. (1) The realisation that at the age of 10 Angelina has shed all childishness from her voice. (2) A feeling that the placement of the spotlight at the beginning of her performance was deliberate. If it was, then, to my mind, it was a brilliant move. (3) The fact that Angelina arranged this song and that the band kept out of the way and let her voice be the focus. (4) The incredible low note she sang for the word "good" at the beginning and end of the performance. (5) That wonderful crescendo at the end. (6) The was Angelina used her left arm and hand throughout the performance (7) The way she changed the microphone from her right hand to left hand, so that she could flip her hair back with her right hand. (8) The cheeky smile she gave to the cameraman when she realised he had focused on her at about 5.03 in your reaction video. (9) The sideways look and grin she gives to her instrumentalists just after she curtsies to the audience -- as if to say, "Yeah, we killed it, guys! Now let's go get some ice cream!" (10) The almost instantaneous switch from "performance" mode to that of a young child who,curseyed and gave a sweet smile to the audience as an acknowledgement of their applause. Others have commented that the performance by Nina Simone should be considered the "gold" standard for this song. Until recently, I had never watched her performance, but have now done so. They just cannot be compared, for Angelina's arrangement is totally different
Hi Nina! Another great reaction and analysis to another great Angelina performance (well, they are all great, we all know that by now), with so many more to come, yay. Doing it chronologically requires a lot of discipline for sure, but has the advantage of seeing Angelina’s development and builds up the tension quite nicely. And boy does she ‚develop and advance‘ right now with Republic Records :) Let’s hope she‘ll become the superstar she was born to be.
What a nice reaction. I would like to suggest: "It is a man's World", Angelina performed in the open with the Staff Brassband from the Norwegian Army when she was 12... To me it is one of her very best performances (although all her performances are impressive, to say the least). When you add the search with "adhanced version" you will get a video with better sound quality and subtitles. On that performance professional recording was not allowed.

I came here with the same recommendation. That, and the very emotional I am still holding out for you.
She's actually up on an F right after where you checked Nina :D Anyhow, a great reaction! I'm so enjoying your Angelina journey, subscribed for every second. She's developing very rapidly around this age, her voice beginning to match her amazing musical mind. Cheers and be safe 😘
Thanks for coming back to our barefoot princess Nina. She is such an incredible artist and talent. I hope you choose to jump to current day to see where she is today. She just released her first single from an upcoming EP/Album due out later this summer/fall. The single is called “Love Don’t Let Me Go” and it is amazing. Thanks for your observations.
Angelina lost indeed somewhere along being ten the last traces about being a child in her voice. Another fantastic song she did cover that year was Every Time We Say Goodbye: th-cam.com/video/KRSI8HmTHJA/w-d-xo.html&pp=iAQB8AUB She started to perform Feeling Good in public about a year earlier than here, in December 2015. Unfortunately she had a cold back then with some influence on her voice, but it was nonetheless an outstanding performance, at 9 years old already: th-cam.com/video/D9tI-FCslRw/w-d-xo.html The playlist this is embedded in contains in total 10 occurences of her doing Feeling Good, incl. some rehearsals and a short TikTok snippet from last year January.
This is such an amazing performance for any age let alone a 10-year old. The big blast at the end is incredible, but all along the way beautiful things happen in a wonderful build up in intensity and dynamics. Angelina seemed to be very pleased with it judging by her smile and giggle at the end. She stands there with a big band on stage singing live for an audience in lights and camera’s on her and she owns the stage and performance.
What I thought was it 10 years old her voice became mature strong and she’s a storyteller a master artist she could be a teacher master classes if she wanted to see how good she is any chance she doesn’t remarkable song between 10 and 16 of the massive Junior boys which is unusual that fast
Definitely I'm Still Holding Out For You. Stay chronological. She has at least one incredible performance every year. At eleven she did an outdoor concert in Norway. Truly incredible. At twelve it is hands down Its a man's world. Etc.
I just wanted to say there are a few very knowledgeable reactors that I truly enjoy their analysis. You are one of them. Thank you for your sunshine and knowledge.
Yeah..the incomparable vocal glacier that is Angelina Jordan reforms the landscape of another piece of iconic musical real estate! More to come, she ain't done! Great job, Nina!
Every time I can't believe it, yet he does it, at the age of 10 he puts this cover next to, and in many cases above, much more famous and experienced singers. Amazing Angelina!! Thanks Nina, beautiful and profound analysis, good life and music.. Massimo
I just love this version really shows her amazing skills, no surprise there then!! Million Miles Live 2022 is so brilliant and touching and a tribute to the brilliance of the slightly faster studio version! Lovely reaction to our little ( and not so little now ) superstar.
Hello Nina 👋 Fantastic reaction to our super impressive , Angelina Jordan . 😊 Now, my suggestion is that you allow yourself to hear couple more songs in this age group 10 _12 yrs old ,as believe it or not , you will note the extensive growth in her musical capabilities, growth in her physical stature and it is during this stage that her body of works became more prolific. Look out for fan favourites such as "Holding out for You " , "Its a Man's World " , " A Million Years Ago " "Stay" , " Young and Beautiful" and my absolute favourite, " I'd Rather Go Blind ". There are many many more that her fans ( Angels) will recommend to you at this age group ; and they are all equally enjoyable to listen and with your technical ear, I look forward to your assessment . In the meantime, thank you for championing our gal on your channel and keep up the great work .👏💜
Angelina at her concerts last July, in Norway, reminded us to spread LOVE ❤. Please introduce someone to Angelina as often as you can. Hug your loved ones every day.
Great Reaction Nina, I think Angelina set the Gold standard for this Song with this performance, I don't see anyone top this for a long time, just my opinion
Great reaction and observations Nina. Angelina by this age of 10 has left her child voice behind and is gaining maturity in all aspects of her performing. This was the song that first introduced me to A.J. and I was blown away by the power and control that she was showcasing, it really shook me. Even at this ridiculous young age Angelina.s performance is full of subtle nuances and showed that she really knew exactly how she wanted this to go down. After watching it 3 times I was hooked and now I need my fix of A.J. in the morning with my coffee or the day just is not starting out in the proper way lol. Thx again NIna.
The Norwegian barefoot princess now living in LA is the best young female vocalist we have today - Now 17 years old. Angelina sings better than already established world stars. No one can stop Angelina from becoming a world star. That's just how it is! Her first singel will be released 5th Mai 2023, and her album will be released later in 2023 with Republic Records. Over the years, she will become a legend for the great moments in the world. She has plenty of time. Remember she is just 17 years old today, which we forget when we see her perform. Republic Records who should also be praised for appreciating this unique talent.
We have been told she has an EP coming out in June. All originals. Whether or not this will be part of a later released album in the fall nobody knows.
Thank you Nina for reacting and commenting on Angelina's rendition of Feeling Good at just 10 years of age !I think she was magnificent in her performance and was really focused on her vocal delivery totally as you can see her managing herself throughout the song ! I like that she manages a smile when she has the camera blasted in her face and I'm sure that would scare the crap out of most people ! Loved her back to being a child curtsey at the end of her performance ! Her voice is absolutely brilliant but I'm more impressed with her stage presence and how she navigated with a live TV audience , the lighting , the cameras and a live band so naturally and fearlessly it's uncanny ! I know singing with a live band is a most daunting task and requires great intuition and especially timing ! The final minute of this song gave me goosebumps as I didn't know if she could rise , deliver and finish a most difficult section of the song ! But she was on point and flawless it had me in tears as a proud parent might feel ! Angelina you will find has the effect on a lot of the older generation who see her as one of their own children ! We love her dearly and are extremely protective of this beautiful soul ! Thanks Nina as always for your wisdom , understanding and knowledge that I so look forward to hearing ! Your musical expertise is at the top of my class for sure ! Much love from Canada sweetheart ! 👍👍🇨🇦🇨🇦❤️❤️❤️
Must See Her Sing at the 2023 Nobel Peace Prize Award - Music Concert.... Dec 11th, 2023 - Jaw Dropper Here - Priceless Performance.!!! Plus Her 18th Birthday is on January 10th, 2024 - Send Her Birthday Wishes when the Time Arrives Soon.!!! Thank U &Tale Care. Sincerely, DD. Ps. Happy Holiday's... Create More Ms. AJ Reaction Music Video's... Look At "I'm Still Holding Out For You". OMG.!!! - Song Here Too.!!! @@ninaschofield
She's such a little BOSS on stage here. She could have been buried by that big arrangement or just barely hanging on but instead she's somehow out front of the band and seemingly pulling the music forward. What a big time performance and what a little dynamo Angelina is.
Hi Nina, Great reaction as always. Since she is 10 here, she also did a (Baby Fuzz cover called I've been Holding Out For You) at the same age. You have to listen to this because this shows the beginning of her maturity. I think this must have been done well before 'The Feeling Good" performance where she sounds even more mature. When Angelina was 7 years old she sang the Billie Holiday cover 'I'm a Fool to Want You' on Norway's Got Talent in which you did a reaction to. She did the same cover at age 11 at a recording session with her grandmother. You have to hear this because her voice had so matured that you would think Angelina had become Billie Holiday. Angelina did an Elvis cover 'How Great Thou Art'. This might not be my favorite but since you're a vocal coach I would like your analysis of how a 12 year old girl can sing in the same key as Elvis.
Loved it. Enjoy how you mentioned little changes aling the way. But this is just two years beyond NGT and only a year after Spell in You. Her voice seems to mature in dog years.
Thanks for another great reaction to & heartfelt appreciation of another masterful performance by Angelina - this time at age 10. It's uncanny how a young girl at just 10 years old can sing a well known song & make it feel like we're just really hearing it for the first time. Always look forward to your Angelina reactions - you really can't go wrong with any of her songs. However - here are a couple of fan favs from when she was still 10: the Amy Winehouse classic Back To Black & a somewhat obscure demo (& IMHO one of her best ever) - I'm Still Holding Out For You. Thank you. And may GOD continue to watch over & bless Angelina Jordan.
Angelina a ten year old master level vocalist , musical arranger, and stage presence that rivals the great's of the past and present. Wonderful reaction, thanks Nina..
… Even if I keep repeating myself...nobody sings this song better than Angelina...nobody!! I can't find the words to describe how perfectly it is sung!! So perfect... world class... the orchestra is also sensational!! ✨💎✨ Thank you
Thank you for your lovely reaction, Nina! Yes, Angelina Jordan is our bare-foot princess! I am addicted to her voice! She is a pure gift for all of us.
Her BEST performance at age 10, a demo that seems fully produced, MUST BE SEEN BY YOU, NINA... only found on a fan video, and no copyright issue.. search ::: I'M STILL HOLDING OUT FOR YOU.
Definately! I’m Still Holding Out For You is next level! Not that Feeling Good isn’t, but ISHOFY is as close to an “original” without it being an original so it shows Angelina interpretive skills! Please do it Nina! You will be amazed! With Feeling Good, you know what’s coming,,, with ISHOFY you won’t.
Angelina was the first to record I'm Still Holding Out for You. Vocal coach Ceci Dover, scalded us angels for taking so long to have her analyze it. A vocal masterpiece, IMO.
You can repeat a bar a hundred times, I still would watch your video. 🙂 For me, it's far more interesting to talk about details than the performance as a whole.
Nina, your breakdown of Angelina's voice and skill brings tears to my eyes. I know what I hear and your professional ear confirms it. Not many ten years olds get to perform with a band of this caliber and this little pide piper leads them marrily along the way. All through my journey with Angelina, I've noticed the maturity of her voice is always several years ahead of her age. She's the best in so many ways and I appreciate very much your delightful reactions to her. Thank you Nina!
Enjoyed your reaction and analysis, this time you heard her more consistent voice with more fold closure. Angelina seems to be able to completely change her sound depending on the song. That’s why, so many fans! In order or skip ahead really don’t matter so much because you get something different in each one!❤ low bass Kenneth!
Great reaction. Every time I see this, I am always impressed with, beside her vocals, how she takes her time with that intro and every step of the way. She never rushes. This is one of my favorite Angelina Jordan triumphs. Waving, Grandma Ellen.
I am very partial, but think she sang this spectacularly. Angelina is beautiful, in voice, in soul, and in person. Oh, I think you're rather special too. Please continue on your journey with Angelina. There is a lot of wonder and beauty in her early years that I would love to review with your oversight.
That rubato ascending phrase near the end is a major masterpiece in itself, both for breath control and for style. The entire performance is a classic of arranging and performance. Great analysis, Nina! Love your composer/arranger viewpoint!
Her voice isn't changing, she changes her voice delebrately on every song, every song, to fit a style as he wants it to be. Other than her first time in the studio at 6 years old, and I not sure if she didn't already know how to manipulate her voice at 6, every song she sings is completely unique. Just one of the three attributes Angelina Jordan showcases.
She has some short vocals that she publishes where she is singing in an underground car park into her phone in LA. They’re all cappella and only the echo of the car park. I think she is the absolute most talented singer I’ve seen or heard in my time on earth, since the late 50s. Better then the King (Elvis)
Earlier in that year, she performed at a festival, bright daylight where she could see every distraction from the audience, and her jumping eyes gave her a weaker start - there were sooo many distracting signs, fans, etc. But, in the second half, there's something powerfully good that audiences can 'give back' - enthusiasm. An emotional tsunami that is seen and felt - and her climax at this same song is so more powerful. Compare the two... she's got two versions of SUMMERTIME (you've seen the karaoke version; there's a lunch festival version that is slower paced and all the more mesmerizing with a live orchestra)... compare those two as well.
You should really do "I'm holding out for you" next. This was a song she and her Family decided to never sing again, due to its references to suicide. But her vocals in this song are stunning and I believe she is either 10 or 11 in that video as well. Its mind blowing. (not that that should come as a surprise...lol) I feel like that is one of her best performances I've heard to date.
I'm a jazz lover so i"m a bit bias but from this period of career, her In-studio rehearsal of "I'm a fool to want you" is simply amazing. also her performance with the KORK orchestra of "Summertime" is really beautiful.
Nina, your enthusiasm is so very genuine when you get ready to listen to Angelina! 🔆As you are finding out her complexities are second nature to her. To us it's incomprehensible to imagine anyone can do what she can at her age. We've all heard this classic sang many times by wonderful artists but I challenge you to find a version as good as Angelina's. She's absolutely amazing!
She sang a Disco song at age 10 also "I WILL SURVIVE" ,,, another unbelievable one to hear is her (leaked) version of "IM STILL HOLDING OUT FOR YOU" ,,,, and both of her Allen Walker back home concert Where AJ was asked to open his concert with "SING ME TO SLEEP" AND "FADED" (they were sung back to back except Allen spoke to crowd in between so don't turn it off after the first one) all these were when AJ was 10 years old
❤ your Angelina reactions. I think you’d enjoy critiquing and comparing her Fly Me to the Moon videos. Try her official video from her site when she’s very young with her live rehearsal video for Quincy Jones 85th birthday. I believe she was only twelve in that one 😮.
Nina, AJs range and depth of voice at this age made me thrill to listen to it. Here at 10 she recorded a cover called "Holding Out For You" that was made as a demo tape. It was not meant for release but was so good that it found its way online anyway. This would be my top suggestion for AJ at this age of 10... it is a radio ready masterpiece. Just a year later at 11 her lower register dramatically started opening up and she started recording songs that Elvis had sung but in the key that Elvis sang in! She also recorded some Lana Del Rey songs exhibiting low register legato lines that displayed AJs growing breath control. For her 11 year old stage presence growth I would recommend covering AJ doing "Loving You" live in an outside venue. (make sure it is the one outside and "enhanced" as there is another inside recording of lesser sound quality).
There are many recordings of Angelina doing that song, there is a recording of her on piano trying to figure out how to sing it; then several rehearsal and live versions where you can see how she was improving that performance. You may be interested to check her last 2 videos - her original song Love do not let me go -which was released about 2 weeks ago and has 933k views and Valerie which she sang on German Next Top model
It's at age 10 that she really finds herself and gets into her stride. There's a confidence that (at least in retrospect) was not quite there before. From now on, her age is irrelevant. We are in the hands of a master.
Please....cover of Elvis' Suspicious Minds. And fun fact....there are three kids in the video. The two youngest are her cousins and the older girl is her sister :) Her hairstyle is pure Priscilla Presley, and there are a few lines where she honors Elvis in almost imitating his voice.
Thank you, Nina, for a great reaction! It would have been interesting to see your reaction to a very captivating performance by Angelina Jordan at age 10. The song is: Ev'ry Time We Say Goodbye, performed on TV 2 Norway in the summer of 2016. It's recorded on a rooftop in Oslo. The Norwegian presenter says they are happy to hear this before Angelina travels to the US. That context gives this song extra depth besides an excellent performance. You find it here: th-cam.com/video/KRSI8HmTHJA/w-d-xo.html
She did this song while sick She was advised by her Dr not to perform but she refused because it was a charity for children and she still did a great job
Another classic performance, age 12 I believe: I'd Rather Go Blind. no big band, just her sitting mild-mannered on a sofa, with a backing track. Then she brings out the bazooka 🙂
Pavlov's Dogs or Angelina's Angels? Angelina is a beautiful young woman with an ability to reach into the innermost depths of your mind on a level with what is known as a "shaman". AJ makes one feel her words and sounds. In the past we may have felt a similar sensation with maybe one song from an artist, but AJ encompasses the ability to conjure up this sensation with every performance. There is a synergy between her looks, sounds, and gestures, and her abilities to activate your senses, therefore; just seeing a picture of her is enough to bring tears to one’s eyes, we are indeed, Angelina's Angels.
Nina, The one essential Angelina performance you missed was her live, masterfu,l 8-year-old version of What A Difference A Day Makes. It would be a great idea to listen to it where you move on! th-cam.com/video/ZSfgCIGd7k4/w-d-xo.html
FaceTime fasten your seatbelt on this one. I had an Jordans 10 years old. Her voice is magnificent a tan. She sings this song how she wants to the band works for her she’s the ball.
You def have to check ouy Kasey Chamber's version of Eminem's Lose Yourself. Kasey is an Aussie country singer and she does an amazing job making the song her own in her very distinctive style
Hello everyone! I hope you're having a great day. Should i skip forward in time to listen to Angelina's new music or should i keep going on this sort of chronological order??
If you want a shock jump to Suspicious Minds ;)
I'd go for more recent ones, and especially her originals. Maybe mix it up a bit.
She has so far 9 original songs, 6 (co-)written by her (What is Life, Oslo, Shield, Million Miles, 7th Heaven, and Love Don't Let Me Go).

Here's a playlist with all her originals, many done on several occasions: th-cam.com/play/PLddfS789jBCows3lQAxFixqTj_rFbGFLM.html
That's up to you. The videos don't build on each other, so the order doesn't really matter. And each performance is different anyway.
I want you to enjoy all of AJ's work, no matter what order you hear it in. I'm adoring your Angelina coverage!
I think that you should treat yourself to her latest original. It’s been out a little over two weeks. It’s called “Love Don’t Let Me Go “. Please check it out when you can. I would love to see your reaction to that one.

The entire venue is studio recorded and published on her (+ army bands) CD called; It's magic. All 16 , and it really is :)
@JaapFilius. I don’t think they had her mic volume level up high enough in that video. A lot of the c song you can barely hear her.
She's actually up on an F right after where you checked Nina :D Anyhow, a great reaction! I'm so enjoying your Angelina journey, subscribed for every second. She's developing very rapidly around this age, her voice beginning to match her amazing musical mind. Cheers and be safe 😘

A favourite performance of mine with her at that age. Love this version with her singing and the orchestral arrangement.
That's how you do it!
It's always fun to see how Angelina will sprinkle a little jazz phrasing into her arrangements.
Every time I can't believe it, yet he does it, at the age of 10 he puts this cover next to, and in many cases above, much more famous and experienced singers. Amazing Angelina!! Thanks Nina, beautiful and profound analysis, good life and music.. Massimo

Hello Nina 👋
Fantastic reaction to our super impressive , Angelina Jordan . 😊
Now, my suggestion is that you allow yourself to hear couple more songs in this age group 10 _12 yrs old ,as believe it or not , you will note the extensive growth in her musical capabilities, growth in her physical stature and it is during this stage that her body of works became more prolific. Look out for fan favourites such as "Holding out for You " , "Its a Man's World " , " A Million Years Ago " "Stay" , " Young and Beautiful" and my absolute favourite, " I'd Rather Go Blind ". There are many many more that her fans ( Angels) will recommend to you at this age group ; and they are all equally enjoyable to listen and with your technical ear, I look forward to your assessment . In the meantime, thank you for championing our gal on your channel and keep up the great work .👏💜

Oh I enjoy this one A LOT! :D WOO HOOoooooo!
Great reaction and observations Nina. Angelina by this age of 10 has left her child voice behind and is gaining maturity in all aspects of her performing. This was the song that first introduced me to A.J. and I was blown away by the power and control that she was showcasing, it really shook me. Even at this ridiculous young age Angelina.s performance is full of subtle nuances and showed that she really knew exactly how she wanted this to go down. After watching it 3 times I was hooked and now I need my fix of A.J. in the morning with my coffee or the day just is not starting out in the proper way lol. Thx again NIna.
The Norwegian barefoot princess now living in LA is the best young female vocalist we have today - Now 17 years old. Angelina sings better than already established world stars. No one can stop Angelina from becoming a world star. That's just how it is! Her first singel will be released 5th Mai 2023, and her album will be released later in 2023 with Republic Records.
Over the years, she will become a legend for the great moments in the world. She has plenty of time. Remember she is just 17 years old today, which we forget when we see her perform. Republic Records who should also be praised for appreciating this unique talent.
We have been told she has an EP coming out in June. All originals. Whether or not this will be part of a later released album in the fall nobody knows.
Thank you Nina for reacting and commenting on Angelina's rendition of Feeling Good at just 10 years of age !I think she was magnificent in her performance and was really focused on her vocal delivery totally as you can see her managing herself throughout the song ! I like that she manages a smile when she has the camera blasted in her face and I'm sure that would scare the crap out of most people ! Loved her back to being a child curtsey at the end of her performance ! Her voice is absolutely brilliant but I'm more impressed with her stage presence and how she navigated with a live TV audience , the lighting , the cameras and a live band so naturally and fearlessly it's uncanny ! I know singing with a live band is a most daunting task and requires great intuition and especially timing ! The final minute of this song gave me goosebumps as I didn't know if she could rise , deliver and finish a most difficult section of the song ! But she was on point and flawless it had me in tears as a proud parent might feel ! Angelina you will find has the effect on a lot of the older generation who see her as one of their own children ! We love her dearly and are extremely protective of this beautiful soul ! Thanks Nina as always for your wisdom , understanding and knowledge that I so look forward to hearing ! Your musical expertise is at the top of my class for sure ! Much love from Canada sweetheart ! 👍👍🇨🇦🇨🇦❤️❤️❤️
Thanks so much for your lovely comment Ron! Have a great day 😊
Must See Her Sing at the 2023 Nobel Peace Prize Award - Music Concert.... Dec 11th, 2023 - Jaw Dropper Here - Priceless Performance.!!! Plus Her 18th Birthday is on January 10th, 2024 - Send Her Birthday Wishes when the Time Arrives Soon.!!! Thank U &Tale Care. Sincerely, DD. Ps. Happy Holiday's... Create More Ms. AJ Reaction Music Video's... Look At "I'm Still Holding Out For You". OMG.!!! - Song Here Too.!!! @@ninaschofield
She's such a little BOSS on stage here. She could have been buried by that big arrangement or just barely hanging on but instead she's somehow out front of the band and seemingly pulling the music forward. What a big time performance and what a little dynamo Angelina is.
Hi Nina,
Great reaction as always.
Since she is 10 here, she also did a (Baby Fuzz cover called I've been Holding Out For You) at the same age. You have to listen to this because this shows the beginning of her maturity. I think this must have been done well before 'The Feeling Good" performance where she sounds even more mature.
When Angelina was 7 years old she sang the Billie Holiday cover 'I'm a Fool to Want You' on Norway's Got Talent in which you did a reaction to. She did the same cover at age 11 at a recording session with her grandmother. You have to hear this because her voice had so matured that you would think Angelina had become Billie Holiday.
Angelina did an Elvis cover 'How Great Thou Art'. This might not be my favorite but since you're a vocal coach I would like your analysis of how a 12 year old girl can sing in the same key as Elvis.
10 years, or 17, there is no one in the universe like her, AJ.
Loved it. Enjoy how you mentioned little changes aling the way. But this is just two years beyond NGT and only a year after Spell in You. Her voice seems to mature in dog years.
Thanks for another great reaction to & heartfelt appreciation of another masterful performance by Angelina - this time at age 10. It's uncanny how a young girl at just 10 years old can sing a well known song & make it feel like we're just really hearing it for the first time. Always look forward to your Angelina reactions - you really can't go wrong with any of her songs. However - here are a couple of fan favs from when she was still 10: the Amy Winehouse classic Back To Black & a somewhat obscure demo (& IMHO one of her best ever) - I'm Still Holding Out For You. Thank you. And may GOD continue to watch over & bless Angelina Jordan.
Angelina a ten year old master level vocalist , musical arranger, and stage presence that rivals the great's of the past and present. Wonderful reaction, thanks Nina..
… Even if I keep repeating myself...nobody sings this song better than Angelina...nobody!! I can't find the words to describe how perfectly it is sung!! So perfect... world class... the orchestra is also sensational!! ✨💎✨ Thank you
Thank you for your lovely reaction, Nina! Yes, Angelina Jordan is our bare-foot princess! I am addicted to her voice! She is a pure gift for all of us.
Thanks so much for watching 😊
It's not just a great rendition of "Feeling Good." It's the BEST rendition of it that I've EVER heard in my 68 years, and I've heard many!
Her BEST performance at age 10, a demo that seems fully produced, MUST BE SEEN BY YOU, NINA... only found on a fan video, and no copyright issue..
search ::: I'M STILL HOLDING OUT FOR YOU.
Yes this is something different
Definately! I’m Still Holding Out For You is next level! Not that Feeling Good isn’t, but ISHOFY is as close to an “original” without it being an original so it shows Angelina interpretive skills! Please do it Nina! You will be amazed! With Feeling Good, you know what’s coming,,, with ISHOFY you won’t.
Angelina was the first to record I'm Still Holding Out for You. Vocal coach Ceci Dover, scalded us angels for taking so long to have her analyze it. A vocal masterpiece, IMO.
@@andyschnell58 I, for one, sugested to CECI, at least 5 times.. I bet I was not alone...
You can repeat a bar a hundred times, I still would watch your video. 🙂 For me, it's far more interesting to talk about details than the performance as a whole.
Thank you so much!
Nina, your breakdown of Angelina's voice and skill brings tears to my eyes. I know what I hear and your professional ear confirms it. Not many ten years olds get to perform with a band of this caliber and this little pide piper leads them marrily along the way. All through my journey with Angelina, I've noticed the maturity of her voice is always several years ahead of her age. She's the best in so many ways and I appreciate very much your delightful reactions to her. Thank you Nina!
I’m so glad you enjoyed the video! Thank you for watching 😊
Enjoyed your reaction and analysis, this time you heard her more consistent voice with more fold closure. Angelina seems to be able to completely change her sound depending on the song. That’s why, so many fans! In order or skip ahead really don’t matter so much because you get something different in each one!❤ low bass Kenneth!
Great reaction. Every time I see this, I am always impressed with, beside her vocals, how she takes her time with that intro and every step of the way. She never rushes. This is one of my favorite Angelina Jordan triumphs. Waving, Grandma Ellen.
Please don't miss " I'm still holding out for you" at 10 years old . Great stunning song. Chills for me!
Thank you very much for this.
Thank you for watching 😊
I am very partial, but think she sang this spectacularly. Angelina is beautiful, in voice, in soul, and in person. Oh, I think you're rather special too. Please continue on your journey with Angelina. There is a lot of wonder and beauty in her early years that I would love to review with your oversight.
That rubato ascending phrase near the end is a major masterpiece in itself, both for breath control and for style. The entire performance is a classic of arranging and performance. Great analysis, Nina! Love your composer/arranger viewpoint!
Her voice isn't changing, she changes her voice delebrately on every song, every song, to fit a style as he wants it to be. Other than her first time in the studio at 6 years old, and I not sure if she didn't already know how to manipulate her voice at 6, every song she sings is completely unique. Just one of the three attributes Angelina Jordan showcases.
Another multi-faceted expert analysis. So much to learn to enhance my music appreciation. Thanks, Nina.
She has some short vocals that she publishes where she is singing in an underground car park into her phone in LA. They’re all cappella and only the echo of the car park. I think she is the absolute most talented singer I’ve seen or heard in my time on earth, since the late 50s. Better then the King (Elvis)
Earlier in that year, she performed at a festival, bright daylight where she could see every distraction from the audience, and her jumping eyes gave her a weaker start - there were sooo many distracting signs, fans, etc. But, in the second half, there's something powerfully good that audiences can 'give back' - enthusiasm. An emotional tsunami that is seen and felt - and her climax at this same song is so more powerful. Compare the two... she's got two versions of SUMMERTIME (you've seen the karaoke version; there's a lunch festival version that is slower paced and all the more mesmerizing with a live orchestra)... compare those two as well.
You should really do "I'm holding out for you" next. This was a song she and her Family decided to never sing again, due to its references to suicide. But her vocals in this song are stunning and I believe she is either 10 or 11 in that video as well. Its mind blowing. (not that that should come as a surprise...lol) I feel like that is one of her best performances I've heard to date.
I'm a jazz lover so i"m a bit bias but from this period of career, her In-studio rehearsal of "I'm a fool to want you" is simply amazing. also her performance with the KORK orchestra of "Summertime" is really beautiful.
Nina, your enthusiasm is so very genuine when you get ready to listen to Angelina! 🔆As you are finding out her complexities are second nature to her. To us it's incomprehensible to imagine anyone can do what she can at her age. We've all heard this classic sang many times by wonderful artists but I challenge you to find a version as good as Angelina's. She's absolutely amazing!
IM HOLDING OUT FOR YOU is the best cover Angelina does at 10 years old....and it's one of my top 10 ten songs.
Angelina is on her way as an international star . Can't get enough her gifted voice. Indeed, more , more.
Everything Angelina sings is amazing!
She sang a Disco song at age 10 also "I WILL SURVIVE" ,,, another unbelievable one to hear is her (leaked) version of "IM STILL HOLDING OUT FOR YOU" ,,,, and both of her Allen Walker back home concert Where AJ was asked to open his concert with "SING ME TO SLEEP" AND "FADED" (they were sung back to back except Allen spoke to crowd in between so don't turn it off after the first one) all these were when AJ was 10 years old
❤❤❤
❤ your Angelina reactions. I think you’d enjoy critiquing and comparing her Fly Me to the Moon videos. Try her official video from her site when she’s very young with her live rehearsal video for Quincy Jones 85th birthday. I believe she was only twelve in that one 😮.
This is one of the best performances of this song I've ever heard .enjoyed your reaction 👍
Nina, AJs range and depth of voice at this age made me thrill to listen to it. Here at 10 she recorded a cover called "Holding Out For You" that was made as a demo tape. It was not meant for release but was so good that it found its way online anyway. This would be my top suggestion for AJ at this age of 10... it is a radio ready masterpiece.
Just a year later at 11 her lower register dramatically started opening up and she started recording songs that Elvis had sung but in the key that Elvis sang in! She also recorded some Lana Del Rey songs exhibiting low register legato lines that displayed AJs growing breath control.
For her 11 year old stage presence growth I would recommend covering AJ doing "Loving You" live in an outside venue. (make sure it is the one outside and "enhanced" as there is another inside recording of lesser sound quality).
There are many recordings of Angelina doing that song, there is a recording of her on piano trying to figure out how to sing it; then several rehearsal and live versions where you can see how she was improving that performance.
You may be interested to check her last 2 videos - her original song Love do not let me go -which was released about 2 weeks ago and has 933k views and Valerie which she sang on German Next Top model
Hello You must listen to the first studirecording when he was 6 years old " I who have nothing " best hello from Norway
Some of my favorite performances of Angelina are in the 10 -12 age range, stay the course you won't be disappointed she gets better with age.
It's at age 10 that she really finds herself and gets into her stride. There's a confidence that (at least in retrospect) was not quite there before. From now on, her age is irrelevant. We are in the hands of a master.
I love her use of space. Angelina doesn't have to fill the song with superfluous riffs and runs.
Maybe one the next could be "Man's World" live with "Forsvarets Stabsmusikkorps" (Big band of Norwegian army), aged 12, if you want to go in steps?
Please....cover of Elvis' Suspicious Minds. And fun fact....there are three kids in the video. The two youngest are her cousins and the older girl is her sister :) Her hairstyle is pure Priscilla Presley, and there are a few lines where she honors Elvis in almost imitating his voice.
Thank you for this!! ❤
Great reaction, as usual. Can't wait for you to get to AJ's performances at 16 and 17.
I really enjoy your knowledge of singing, and how you enjoy Angelina Jordan. Malcolm Spencer
Great Reaction!!
Thank you, Nina, for a great reaction! It would have been interesting to see your reaction to a very captivating performance by Angelina Jordan at age 10. The song is: Ev'ry Time We Say Goodbye, performed on TV 2 Norway in the summer of 2016. It's recorded on a rooftop in Oslo. The Norwegian presenter says they are happy to hear this before Angelina travels to the US. That context gives this song extra depth besides an excellent performance.

Amazing 👏🏻
Great reaction.
She is simpy amazing.
She did this song while sick She was advised by her Dr not to perform but she refused because it was a charity for children and she still did a great job
Angelina has so many great songs at this age. 10 years old is when she really hit her stride... You might want to watch a few more at this stage.
Wonderful reaction Nina !!! Thank you!!!
I recommend "Loving You" in an open air concert. Love your reactions!!!!
Easy on me.......just AJ and the piano. In the "Top Five" of her performances. Love you, your reactions, and critique, thank you Nina!
The most joyful reaction on the internet.
i love the band esp the brass. this is one of my favs of all time. thvm
Another classic performance, age 12 I believe: I'd Rather Go Blind. no big band, just her sitting mild-mannered on a sofa, with a backing track. Then she brings out the bazooka 🙂
Excellent reaction, Nina!
I think she understood the assignment here...
Hi Nina, she’s grandmama is Iranian artist and she have genetically tahrir technic in her voice..
She has been described as a vocal chameleon
The best rendition of this song ever !!!
Pavlov's Dogs or Angelina's Angels? Angelina is a beautiful young woman with an ability to reach into the innermost depths of your mind on a level with what is known as a "shaman". AJ makes one feel her words and sounds. In the past we may have felt a similar sensation with maybe one song from an artist, but AJ encompasses the ability to conjure up this sensation with every performance. There is a synergy between her looks, sounds, and gestures, and her abilities to activate your senses, therefore; just seeing a picture of her is enough to bring tears to one’s eyes, we are indeed, Angelina's Angels.
Love your genuine reactions ❤!
❤️❤️
5 octaves outstanding for a 10 year old further more outstanding for a 50 year old but that's our barefoot princess wild bill 🙂
lovely reaction. Thanks. Very informative.
Thrilling on the 100th listen 🤩👣🧡🧡🙌❣️
~~~~Next? any of her rough and ready home performances with Ivan Mendez (age 12). Stay is my fav.
Angelified by the Barefoot Princess, were you?
Nina, The one essential Angelina performance you missed was her live, masterfu,l 8-year-old version of What A Difference A Day Makes. It would be a great idea to listen to it where you move on! th-cam.com/video/ZSfgCIGd7k4/w-d-xo.html
FaceTime fasten your seatbelt on this one. I had an Jordans 10 years old. Her voice is magnificent a tan. She sings this song how she wants to the band works for her she’s the ball.
You def have to check ouy Kasey Chamber's version of Eminem's Lose Yourself. Kasey is an Aussie country singer and she does an amazing job making the song her own in her very distinctive style
