    Wow brother! Thank you thank you ! My mother in law fell today and I was at the hospital just getting ready to leave when I saw your video pop up. You do great reactions and I appreciate that. Thank you for the intro you gave I was like whoa I wasn’t expecting any of that! We’ve had a long day was at the hospital over 7 hours and they kept my mother in law in. Went to early Mother’s Day meal and she fell down the steps at Logan’s Roadhouse and she broke some ribs and it’s just been a bad day but thank you for the video, and as I said I’ll be in touch soon with ya! Thanks again brother

      Really sorry about your mother in law! I hope all is well with her. I'm glad I was able to make a terrible day just a bit better. It was truly my honor to learn and share some info about you! You've definitely led a full and interesting life! Rebel radio was all I would listen to in GTA because it was funny AF!! I'm in a few dads gaming groups and it was great watching them freak out when I told them about you! So again...thank YOU!

I am 72 and love all types of music, country, big band, jazz, rock, opera, but Angelina will top all of this.

    I really love how you take the time to know the song, before you go into these reactions. It makes your reaction interesting, and I appreciate it. These reaction was so exciting to find. You knew that Gloomy Sunday was the audition. I believe Bang Bang was her semi-final, and Summertime was her finals performance. As long as I've listened to Angelina, I can't help going back to see this little waif sing. Thank you, Thank you!

    I came across my grand daughter listening to a song . I said Etta James melody in a couple spots but the words are different . She was listening to “Happier than Ever” by Billie Eilish . I said some of the melody not much is from Etta James “My Funny Valentine “, also sung by Sarah Vaughan and of course Angelina Jordan who puts her spin on it and you can’t help but love her . I’m no expert but should you ever get the chance to listen to
    Angelina Jordan sing My
    Funny Valentine and then listen to Billie Eilish sing Happier than ever . Am I , the grand mother wrong in thinking some of the melody is from Angelina Jordan ‘s song My Funny Valentine , who goes on all her covers gives credit due .
    I could have said nothing but then another song came up and I recognized some of the melody . We must give credit to the original artists as I’m sure you will believe also .
    PS Then maybe my grand daughter and I can stop fighting . Thank you

    @BuffaloC305 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I hope other comments have recommended her 'live orchestra version' of this song. It's a much slower tempo, much more like sitting on the dock over a lazy summer river, meandering along, waiting for some fish to bite. Two different tempos to the same song, and I'll be surprised if you don't find your preferences for one versions, then flip back later on, then again and again.

    Great reaction ! Regarding your comment towards Bjarte, one of the judges. Imagine that most of us fans have never heard anything like Angelina in 50 years or so. Now imagine, we would be sitting in a talent show, maybe mediocre expectations, and then this 7-year old girl with a missing tooth shows up. And you know, that this is nothing you have ever seen/heard, and it is happening in front of you. Of course you are hyperventilating when she sings Bang Bang, because this is Nancy Sinatra's song.....but surprisingly it is now Angelina's song, and she is only 7.....can any of us imagine the disbelief that the judges experienced here ? I am sure they will never forget this moment in their whole life.

    I'm so glad you listened to the original by Billy Holliday, I don't think you can fully appreciate just how great of a job she did here. It's almost identical. just amazing. Alos, on Gloomy Sunday, at the end, you see Angelina's mom wiping tears away. In an interview she said she realized seeing the judges expressions and the audience's during her song , that she would have to share her with the world from now on. The guy with the glasses when asking if she knew what the song was about, wanted to know if she knew it was about suicide. He responded well when he realized she didn't know

    Angelina is one of the most addictive singers I have ever listened to, & one of the very few, that can pull you right into the song, making you feel, every word, every note, & every emotion. ❤️💙 I always have this feeling that Angelina is not only channeling some of these late great singers, but that they also pass through her, when she is singing their song ❤️💙 A rare beauty, in every sense of the word ❤️💙 Whether you are a believer in reincarnation or not, I find it very intriguing that Lou Rawls, the American Jazz & blues singer legend, passed away only a few days before Angelina was born 😊 Loved your reaction!!!

    You were wondering about who her Mom is. She was the beautiful blonde-haired lady whom the Gloomy Sunday video showed backstage wiping her eyes as Angelina was singing on stage. Her name is Sara Astar. It also showed her and Angelina swinging each other's hands back and forth at the beginning of the video. Angelina, with the help of her maternal grandmother Meri Zamani, has been researching, studying, learning, and singing jazz since she was literally THREE years old!

    I saw a comment recently that said "Some singers take you to church, Angelina takes you to a SpeakEasy."
    Also, if you watch during "Bang, Bang", there is a moment when she looks at the guitarist during a break in the vocals. Even at this age, she knew how vocals and instruments work together.

    Here is a quote from Angelina (7y) from an interview with TV2 after her Audions NTG 2014. "The reason I chose this song is completely random. I love jazz, but" Gloomy Sunday "was random. It was a night I could not sleep and my mother was stressed that I was awake long after midnight. Then I borrowed my mom's iPad where I wanted to listen to jazz on TH-cam before I fell asleep. Then came a picture of a beautiful lady screaming at the sky and with her eyes closed. I heard the song "Glommy Sunday" that night and then I had to hear it every day. I love the melody. I understood well what the text was about because I know English well. Every time I sang it I felt something special about it, it's hard to explain in words. When I sang it for mom, she said that this song is nice, but that it was incredibly sad song. " ✌😎✌💯 *AJ* 💯🎙

    "She doesn't even know what she's saying." I think that's what I heard you say on "Summertime." Trust it, she knows EXACTLY what she's saying! She has an extraordinary vocabulary and understanding of English. You should check the videos of her singing Tom Jones' "I Who Have Nothing" and Adele's "Rolling in the Deep" at the age of SIX YEARS OLD -- equivalent to a FIRST GRADER. In those videos, she is in the recording studio of her music school, and at six years of age, is READING THE LYRICS off the score sheets while simultaneously interpreting them vocally and emotionally. YEAH, Angelina COMPLETELY UNDERSTANDS what she is saying!

    • @HistoryBuff

      I said, "does she even know what she's singing" not meaning the words. These songs have very adult themes. The judge even says something similar asking if she knew what it was about.

    • @DavidBrianPaley
      @DavidBrianPaley 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@HistoryBuff And you are correct in your suspicion. As Angelina's (innocent) answer to that judge proved, to her (at the age of 7) the song was about "a sad Sunday" which showed she had no real comprehension that the song had such a dark history that it was also known as the "Hungarian Suicide Song" and some suicide victims had been found with the lyrics of the song pinned to their clothing. (Enough to prompt some governments to to ask radio stations to cease airplay of it.) Since Angelina has reached a point of understanding those lyrics, I don't think she's ever performed the song again (in public at least). www.historicmysteries.com/gloomy-sunday-suicide-song/

    I think her most impressive performance was her second, the "no audience, judges cuts", where she performs an acapella of Billie Holiday's "I'm A Fool To Want You".
    It is funny that Bang Bang is associated with Nancy Sinatra's cover version (thanks mostly to Kill Bill I think) by so many when it was never even a single for her. Yet Cher had a huge hit with it reaching #2 in 1966. The song was actually written for her by Sony Bono after she told him about her first broken heart. A little boy who she would play cowboys with and always let him win the gunfights but one day he just went on to play with new friends and had no other use for her leaving her shattered.

    Thank you for this beautiful reaction with the 3 songs Angelina's in NGT (but the interpretation of the chapel is missing), these are the firsts public splendid interpretations of that fantastic little girl and the reactions of the judges during her songs are another fascinating spectacle of what Angelina is capable of causing 😊
    Was an astonishing event for those who lived it at that moment, the emotion one feels for her first performances, in which she wonderfully connects her voice and talent with aspect of that little bird playing, it is very big and intense and leaves you permanently marked. ❤️ To think that at 7 / 8 years she was perfectly capable of reading, analyzing and making contact, in a foreign language, without any doubt or fear, with the public and with the stunned judges, seems impossible. She convinced her mother to sign her up for Talent because she was confident ... at seven years! In the days following the first performance, her online video recorded over 5 million views in a country, the Norway, which has as many inhabitants ... 😁 Seeing her sing in this talent, we realizes that she has never had hesitations or fears, the only time when she returned as a child is when they declared her winner with about 46% of the votes and she let herself go with tears of emotion. The first judge, at the end of this song, said what remains for me the simplest and most suitable description of Angelina, "you are the music", there is nothing more true. ❤️

  • @dbcooper69
    @dbcooper69 3 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    Other singers, contort their faces, strain and force the sounds out.. Angelina just opens her mouth, nice and relaxed and beautiful sounds are emitted. She becomes the music and song. There's an interview about how she feels on stage when she sings, she says when she closes her eyes, she goes to an amazingly beautiful world. If you pay close attention, once in a while when she opens her eyes, she it happens really quick, but she gets slightly shocked as if she forgets there's people there watching her.

    there was another performance between the first and second songs you saw. SHE DID NOT GO OFF FORM during Norways Got Talent. Summertime was the finale. she was Americas Got Talent The Champions in 2020. she auditioned when she was 13, late fall 2019. her version of Bohemian Rhapsody was HER style. she gets amazing feed back from the judges. when the show started airing on tv she had just turned or was about to turn 14 in january 2020. she was an absolute smash hit with everyone. they talked to her off camera during the competition and told her she could win, IF , if she signed a contract with the t v company . that way they could tell her what to sing or record . she politely told them NO THANK YOU. she wanted to do it her way and not be told how or what to do. BECAUSE she refused to sign with them she was NOT ALLOWED to win. it absolutely sucked, but thats show business for you. thank goodness she didnt sign with them. a video she did in her home studio was her take on Whitney Houstons " I Have Nothing". so many people who had seen her videos said she had a good voice but couldnt sing anything that took a big voice. well, she showed them with i have Nothing, and The Show Must Go On.

    one thing is for sure. Other that your "regulars" 99% of the people who watch this are already HUGE, Angelina fans. We're watching to react to your reaction.
    Most of us have seen this 100 times.
    Angelia has several "Originals", however, one really stands out, and that is "What is Life" the bonus is that she also is the composer of the Music, and the Lyrics!
    2 great drops one Lyric, and one Acoustic.
    The Song, "Gloomy Sunday" is a dark song, and was the trigger for so many suicides that it was banned for a time. The Judge Knew that.
    Angelina did not.
    Talent competitions run for several months from recordings to broadcasts, to the grand Finale during the final few weeks. She auditioned at 7, and won when she was 8. her DOB is January 10 , 2006 this year (2021) she turned 15.
    She is also an author (Youngest in Norway's History)
    and an accomplished seamstress, she makes most of her own clothes (worn in performances)

      Having said that, at the age of 7/8 she was an extraordinary mimic. She had no real clue what she was singing, she just impeccably copied what she heard.
      Never the less, she has always been capable of captivating a room and she is a unique and insanely talented young lady

She went on to explain its meaning and to remind the interviewer that she’d been listening to Billie Holliday for years. She talked about how she often discussed the meaning of the lyrics of Billie Holliday’s music with her mother. Just thought I’d add this to the debate as it seemed relevant.

    It's funny that you keep saying she reminds you of a lounge jazz singer. Well a few months after she won NGT, she had a small role as an 8 yo lounge singer in a TV series called Lillehammer. I believe it's about a gangster that flees the states to hide out in Norway. From her 1st audition to the finals took 6 months, so her skills improved between each performance. Nice reaction!

    You got it right but missed just one performance, a second audition because they had not eliminated enough performers in the first auditions. Singers who had instruments, like guitars, could use them, but those without had to sing acapella. As you guessed, Angelina chose a similar song and it was one of Billie Holiday's, I'm A Fool To Want You. By the way, she performed this classic again when she was 111 or 12 and it would be fun to react to both together. First: (193) Angelina Jordan - I'm A Fool To Want You - Norske Talenter - 2014 - TH-cam and second: (193) Angelina Jordan - I'm a Fool To Want You (Billie Holiday) (Studio Recording) - TH-cam

    She stuck mainly to Jazz the only departure was Bang Bang. Norway as a country has a lot of Jazz festivals and bands. So she was playing to mass audience preferences, I suspect Angelina worked that out herself, her IQ is off the chart, she speaks half a dozen languages and is seriously into maths and science. She is also very well versed in international politics and the UN wants to make her an Ambassador.

    Angelina is the barefoot princess of 1000 voices. She can adjust her voice to any style or genre of singing. As you said, she has the gift of being able to express emotion of experiences she has never lived. Summertime was her final performance.
    She also did I'm a fool to want you acapella by Billie Holiday. Those were the only four songs. It's too bad you didn't get to hear the judges after summertime. Would bring tears to your eyes

    Hello🖐
    First of all , let me say you did a great job here reacting to 3 of 4 songs she did in NGT with the last song 'Summertime' being the winning one where she had got 46% of the all votes . Throughout the video you were curious as to the theme of song choice and you were expecting her to sing a 'belting ' song to impress the judges as you expected of most contestants do in these types of show. However, what you must know is that Angelina, through her grandmother's guiding influence from preschool age, listened to the greats of jazz of days gone by . We are talking about Billie Halliday, Ella Fitzgerald, Dinah Washington, Luis Armstrong and that's just to name a few. You will find as you continue along her growing years (physically & vocally) that her prodigous talent becomes more evident. For Angelina it's about tone, timing, breathe control and emotional delivery never belting unless it calls for it ie Whitney Houston 'I Have Nothing ' . I highly recommend you take a look at Rusty Shackleford's list of Angelina songs as he has them in chronological order and also gives a background information for each song. A helpful guide to new reactors to Angelina , such as yourself. There's over 130+ covers and 5 of her originals on that list . I have subscribed as look I forward to seeing you go through her journey.

    Hi, AJ won NGT at8 yr.old that's when I started to watch her sing, as she was getting older she sang better and better. I can't pick a song because l love all her songs, she did a lot of covers it's like she came from another planet and fell here sprinkling Angel Dust I am 67 and I still love her, the song 7th Heaven she wrote with some help she's 15, very humble, care about people, she is a genius she chooses all the songs and arranges them. If you want to hear songs go to Rusty Shackeford or Boris Palenovaki channels they have all the songs that AJ sang they are super fans, I just want to say her voice is soul jazzy rich she brought back vintage songs she is different from other young girls has her own style, I hope you can hear more of her songs!

      Keep in mind, both songs are abbreviated versions of the originals (due to American broadcast requirements) and you should be able to fit them both in however... the comments before and after Bohemian Rhapsody are worth including. There is one version that includes Heidi Klum’s reaction... most reactors select the version that omits Heidi. 😕
      It’s worth playing the one that includes Heidi’s reaction - it also includes Angelina’s emotional response. 😉👍

    She stole my heart with Gloomy sunday, and after that I was most impressed by I'm a fool to want you of Billie H. she performed that a capella, which was unbelievable good (pitch, timing etc)! Her jazz songs eversince are always great, but she covered many other styles, always very good, often a wonderful tribute, many times better than the original, because her emotional connection with the lyrics is usually better than most singers. She just seem to 'feel' when you should leave an emotion to the listener, or when to bring your own feelings into it! How she can make it all seem effortless and natural is a big mystery to me! This girl is absolutely unique!

    As for time passed, auditions were over several dates across Norway, Angelina’s was at the end of Nov ‘13, judges’ cut Feb ‘14 (no audience), then straight to live semifinal with audience voting. Bang Bang on Apr 19(?), more weekly semi’s until May 23rd where 10 finalists competed. She got 46% of the votes. I was in Norway for an event the following weekend and my host, a jazz musician, could not wait to show me her appearances. I strongly recommend you listen to her a Capella performance, the longer version on Rusty’s channel, unbelievable!

      To add, I think norwegians appreciate music in all forms, check out the festivals/concert scene all over the country. You do not have to “belt” to be appreciated. Oslo in the summer months is just crazy with music, I was there once where they had a jazz festival going on all week and the bands would play in the centre of town and I would wander from one end of the central, pedestrian area to the other. My plans for sightseeing that day went out the window.
      And Angelina has really made it difficult for me to listen to other singers. If she has covered a song, she has improved it. For me, anyway.

I had to listen to this song several times before I really appreciated how special this song was. There are other videos that will give you the full version of the judges reactions after the songs. Summertime was the finals and she did win but I love the judges comments after that song. The first judge Omar became a very good friend of her family after the show. There is a video of him attending her birthday parties. He was also a very close friend of Michael Jackson spending a great deal of his youth at Neverland. His mother was a nanny for Michael’s kids

    Angelina once said if she hadn't found Billie Holliday, there would be no Angelina Jordan. Jazz and blues are in her soul. She's been listening since a toddler to the old school jazz, and she brings it to covers of pop, jazz, blues, country, and even classical songs. (See Song for A, an art song written for her). Her own compositions show how she blends genres, but always with the jazz approach. Try her recent original "7th Heaven" for an example. Thanks for this triple treat!
