Word of the day: Angelina Certainly no problem with explaining the character or magnificence her singing as simply ‘Angelina’. For all the reasons you have articulated in your reaction videos, I believe she will be the benchmark for vocal art in the 21st century.
Losing your dad is excruciating. So very sorry. I know it’s now more than 3 months but still, pain of loss has no timeframe. This one leaves me in tears for my own Dad ♥️
Thank you Bob…, each time I hear this song by Angelina …. I can’t control that feeling of crying… the sound of the cello makes it beautifully nostalgic ! Sometimes it is difficult to express the emotions this beautiful girl makes me feel!! Awesome reaction!!❤️ I really enjoy your channel !!
Angelina appears to have a natural empathic ability to feel a song in her soul, she has the incredible vocal sensitivity and dexterity to translate what she feels into sounds carried across the air, we hear them and they penetrate into our soul and cause us to feel what she feels.
One vocal coach reacting to an Angelina song mentioned that singers are typically instructed to not close their eyes when performing. (I am unable to find it again, but I think the direction is about keeping contact with the audience.) Clearly demonstrated repeatedly, Angelina has no problem keeping connected to us with her eyes closed.
What a heartfelt reaction you presented... Here's a message written just for YOU from Angelina: "This song is dedicated to anyone who has lost a loved one. I wrote this song thinking about all the great memories I had with my Grandpa and how much it hurts to lose someone. I hope this song finds a place in your heart.. as it comes straight from mine" Angelina Jordan This is specifically applicable for you, Bob... she was singing comfort for you....she relates, she knows, she feels, she cries, she's GENUINE. She cried while singing this, not only for her own HUGE loss, but for everyone else as well .. Simple and incredibly sincere, listen again, and you'll hear it differently..Angelina has reached in to our hearts and strung stars all around it. PEACE & 🙏🏻'S for You. 🤗😇
Beautifully said, Bob .. really .. beautifully expressed .. especially "she holds his soul next to her heart" .. she is stunningly real in this and her grief calls rip at my heart.
Bob, Hold on to your hat! 🤯 I believe I have an explanation for all the things that you weren't able to put together about Angelina in this video. First, here were some of your eloquent, insightful comments: "She really puts your soul at ease here. She just sounds so unusually genuine." "She's out to relay a message. She gives her heart and soul at least." "She sings it like that (gesturing outward). There's no word. I can't come up with the word. She just sings it." "Have you ever felt like you could look into a person's soul? It feels so much like she's just opening herself up to us and crying out . . ." How can all this be put together? I have coined a phrase: Angelina sings *"Soul to Soul".* In other words, I believe that she bares her soul to us emotionally while connecting directly with our souls. Her complete acceptance of feeling the way she feels, while being profoundly connected with us, gives us both an example and permission to feel what is in our own souls. _And that is immensely freeing and healing._ Instead of blocking our emotions, we allow ourselves to feel them -- perhaps for the first time. And the more and more we repeat that process, the better people we become. *That is because we are meeting our true selves for the first time.* And that is how Angelina is spreading love to the whole world through her music -- with the intention to help heal the world. ✨⭐✨😞🌎💖🎤🎼🎶💧💧😊✨⭐✨ P.S. Angelina literally means "Angel" or "Messenger". So yes, she is here on earth to deliver a message -- and as you noticed she succeeds in doing that in every song she sings.
Angelina does not need instruments while she is performing, we need nothing to distract from the emotion in her voice and the way she delivers the lyrics.
Hi Bob, this is the second video of 3. The first is a lyric video in which her grandma did the art work with Angelina and the third is a music video in which Angelina wrote the script for it. Her uncle and little sister playef the part of Angelina and her grandfather. Angelina said she dedicated this song to her Grandpa and to anyone who has lost a loved one. In a sense, Bob, she dedicated this song to you also for the loss of your father. I'm sorry for your loss. As Angelina says, you are never alone. He's watching over you from above. And when you're asleep, he'll visit you in your dreams. Whenever grief overwhelms me thinking about the loss of my loved ones, I listen to this song and it helps me. God bless. Take care.
Excellent reaction and commentary ! Angelina's song is meant for all of us who suffered a loss and in the time of COVID makes us all feel nothing but love and hope for the future ! She's a treasure and we love our beautiful barefoot princess ! Thank you and keep posting much appreciated ! PS : I love your Rush album cover on the wall ! One of my fav groups and they are from my hometown too ! 👍👍🤗🇨🇦❤️
Bob, I'm sorry for the loss of your dad. I've lost both my parents so I know the feeling. But it is always very personal and we have to deal with it the best way we can. Angelina's original song here was her first with Republic Records. It is sad as you say but it is also a song of Hope. It leaves you with that sense that your loved one will always be with you. As you stated, very few artists can deliver a story like Angelina, directly from her soul. And you have just experienced another one of her 1,000 voices. Except this time it is just her own. The world would definitely be a better place with love like Angelina shares. I'm not sure you are aware that her stated goal when she was 7 years old was to sing for the world to bring love and peace. She is on her way, and lord knows that the world needs her now. If we embrace her mission, every one of us must do everything in our power to help her get there to utilize her platform in the way she envisions. Once again, please provide all her links and encourage your viewers to use them to help her TH-cam analytics. It is the only promotion the young artists get at this stage of their careers and if anyone deserves it, Angelina does. Peace and love.
I Love Million Miles ❤️ It is so a beautiful song ❤️ I cried so many times, listening to it. Thinking of that little girl losing a grandpa, and also my own losses through life. I listen to Million Miles every single day ❤️ The last belt she did, feels like a primal scream reaching her grandpa wherever he is ❤️ I just cant hold in the tears then ❤️
Thank you so much, I really found comfort and solace in your comments your words ring so true. Appreciate your reaction, well said. Angelina is a an amazingly beautiful human being in this difficult and challenging world. Once again appreciated this comment.
Absolutely. her voice is a symphony all by its self, no other singer can do what Angelina does. She is the most natural genuine emotive singer on the planet. No one can touch her ,even the great Adele is second to her vocal emotive prowess. it has been reported that Angelina said that she was crying so much during this that she had a hard time getting through this song of hers.
Thanks for another genuine and thoughtful reaction. As others have stated, this is rather uncommon in the reactor world. Your format of giving final thoughts at the end after a brief break (perhaps with a little time to collect your thoughts) really separates you from the pack. Your efforts at making your reactions top notch are noticed and appreciated. Kudos, my friend. I know it is easy to get completely lost in Angelina's singing here, but the choice to put a cello in the mix is nothing short of genius.
Angelina singing this song for and about her grandpa had the affect of touching me deeply and making me want to be a better grandpa for my 10 grand kids. Angelina makes 11. Wonderful reaction sir, sorry for your loss Thumbs up and thanks for your time.
Million Miles allowed me to properly grieve the loss of loved ones. I had never cried to a song before. I truly believe this song will help countless people until the end of time. Angelina Jordan is here to inspire us to be the best we can. It is not a hobby that she has inspired in me. It is an inspiration as to how to appreciate life, the beauty around us, and of course music. I listen to her everyday because it warms my heart to know that Angelina's life's goal is to bring peace and love to the world through her music. If I had to define a passion that she has created in me, it is the passion to actively promote her so that she will ultimately use her platform to heal our world, which is in great need currently. You did a wonderful job highlighting Angelina in your video, but every reactor can go a step further to truly support young artists like Angelina. You and your viewers should do your part by watching, liking, and commenting on the original video and subscribing to the artist's channels with links that you provide. Your encouragement to the viewers is needed as many do not know how to support you nor the artist! If reactors and fans participate together, Angelina and all aspiring artists support will get the credit they deserve. And your Channel will benefit with increased subscriptions from fan loyalty. A CRITICAL NEW REASON TO SUPPORT YOUR ARTISTS HAS JUST BEEN ANNOUNCED AND IS A WARNING TO REACTION CHANNELS There is a young artist, who has been featured in many reactions over the past year. He has recently come forward looking for ownership of all his reaction videos with the monetary benefit. He and his management are also issuing copyright strikes against all channels who with good intent, increased his exposure with their videos. The channels must remove all his content or receive a copyright strike. Some are at risk of being shut down! If you would like the artist information and the link, please let me know here and I will drop it in the comments There is no question that reaction channels that are genuinely partnering with their artists and providing support as outlined above, will reduce their risk of exposure to copyright strike issues. Supporting the careers of young artists properly is the right thing to do, with added benefits to your own subscriptions. And a major new consideration is that it should solidify your relationship with artists and their management, in order to reduce the risk of undesired consequences for your Channel. I along with others are simply fans of artists and reaction channels who are educating ourselves about TH-cam and specifically music reactions.
Great reaction to a great new song written & performed beautifully by our barefoot angel - Angelina. Agree that the entire presentation - black & white, piano & cello as the only instruments & Angelina's incredible, heart wrenching vocals - all combine to allow her to strongly emote the essence of the lyrics & music directly to our hearts & souls, allowing each of us to deeply FEEL as well as hear her beautiful song. Always look forward to your Angelina reactions. Thank you. And may GOD continue to watch over & bless Angelina Jordan.
Hello Gregory. You know, this was Angelina's fourth original, and her first after she signed with Republic Records. Angelina is 16 years old now, as you know, and this recording is from when she was 14. So in that regard, it's not a new song per say. But maybe you meant new song to Bob. Just chiming in..LOL Have a great weekend :-)
Her original What Is Life written at age 11 and sung at age 12 is also very moving. My favorite version is the lyric version, concentrating on a little girl’s words, and the melody pulls at your heartstrings.
She’s an open book..utterly devoid of ego..she shows us her vulnerability and so we are drawn to her..add this to her stunning voice and beautiful song writing abilities and we are simply privileged to be able to share her journey. Your reaction was absolutely on the money..thank you and you take care too..listen to this song a few times more..it helps. 🙏
This was a wonderful reaction, in her own words this is what she wants us to know... “When I was in the booth, while I was singing, my tears were running,” she says. “To be honest, it was like a feeling of relief that all my feelings were written down and I felt relieved. “Million Miles” means a lot to me because it is relevant to these difficult times. I definitely want to share my love to everyone, and I hope that people can connect with it and relate to the story behind the song.” Angelina Jordan Astar
Angelina is such a courageous young lady for posting this ‘You’re Always In My Mind’ video dedicated to her grandpa who had passed: th-cam.com/video/dd8r7c-4-ks/w-d-xo.html (I read in a comment this was the first of her two grandfathers who had passed.) During an instrumental section near the end of the song, her mind appears freed from concentrating on the vocals for a moment and her emotions begin to dominate. (She is clearly in anguish at the end.) She is such a beautiful soul.
Bob it’s about her grandfather passed away it’s a tribute to him as he’s 1,000,000 miles away she can’t say no to her team she feels emerge tears but do you know he’s with her by the spirit she believes that love never dies I could’ve loaned you my copy lol Three different versions of it once you get home in Norway Yes I’ll live from grandmother did art work Lyrics only
Hi Bob, I'm sure you recognized those parts of the song that always give me goosebumps. It's one of her first own song. And then about such a strong feeling, the grief over her beloved grandfather, that only works because she opens her heart and soul and lets us share in her pain. I lost my father a little over a year ago. That's when I heard this song for the first time. I could understand all the feelings. She screams her pain out. In the lyrics she talks about the beautiful memories that will stay with us forever. He will always be with her, he is in her heart. Sorry, but you've already said all that - just in different words. But you also recently lost your father and you can relate to it as much as I can. My sympathies. A great achievement for a girl who was only 14 at the time. Well she's a musical genius and then it's not surprising anymore. I still admire this achievement. For me it's her best song precisely because she opens her heart and soul. I believe this song will help many people cope better with the loss of a loved one. I would like to recommend you a song. For me, both songs form a unit when it comes to how Angelina deals with the grief for her grandfather. Background to this song: Angelina came from her grandfather's funeral and then said goodbye in her own way. It's actually unbelievable that she released this video with her deepest feelings and sadness. She fights back tears to the end. Notice how she slides back and forth in the chair. (2019) - Always on my mind 12 years old - th-cam.com/video/dd8r7c-4-ks/w-d-xo.html - Elvis cover Have a nice weekend and Greetings from Germany (Summer is coming, it's getting warm)
After watching your great reaction to Million Miles for a 2nd time, just wanted to thank you for sharing your own personal loss with us. Angelina also did an acoustic cover as a specific tribute to her late grandfather - Always On My Mind. While I thoroughly enjoy & look forward to all of your Angelina reactions, please consider creating separate playlists for the artists you cover (or at least for Angelina :). As your list of Angelina reactions grows, it would make it much easier for us to identify all the Angelina songs you've already reacted to so that we're only requesting those that you haven't reacted to yet. Thank you. And may GOD continue to watch over & bless Angelina Jordan.
Bob, Angelina told in an interview, that when recording the song first time, for the lyrics video, tears were streaming down her face, but afterwards, so she said, she felt relieved. And please don´t forget, in the body of this 14 year old girl lives a mind, 20 years older. She is a highly gifted person. Bless you, and good health to you. German greetings.
In an interview with America Songwriter, Angelina shared her feelings while recording the song, “When I was in the booth, while I was singing, my tears were running,” she says. “To be honest, it was like a feeling of relief that all my feelings were written down and I felt relieved. “Million Miles” means a lot to me because it is relevant to these difficult times. I definitely want to share my love to everyone, and I hope that people can connect with it and relate to the story behind the song.” 🤗🤗
That was an angel flying by your head lol 🙂. Your reaction was just as powerful and heartfelt as the song itself as you truly related to it (my condolences for your father). As you said , her voice is music, no need for an orchestra. One of the judges on her first presence on Norway's got talent made the exact same statement: "You are music". You really get this wonderful girl!
As they said in the Norway got talent, she is music and she sings with emotions like very few others and make us feel it and remember it. She does sing "Always on my mind" as a tribute to her grandfather, I think it was 2 days after he died and she end up crying, it is very emotional, see it but maybe not do a reaction to it as it is very sad.
Angelina wrote recorded and performed this age 14 years old Angelina’s first original when she signed with Republic Records , Angelina wrote this as a tribute to her grandfather who passed away !
Whoa Bob...man did you get what this young lady was conveying to all of us...really great comments and so spot on. She wrote a beautiful song for her beloved Grandpa at 14 years old and what she said about this song was, it is not only about her loss but she wrote it for everyone who has lost a loved one in their life...simply a brilliant young lady with such a heart and soul and she exposes it to all of us. And yes, the belting parts of this song is like a scream to her grandad to hear her and let him know she knows he is still here watching over her... rather a sad song in some ways but also a heeling song for all of us with loss in our lives. She is a true vocal artist and so happy to have her in my life. Wonderful reaction video Bob....cheers and have a great weekend. For your health and well being, listen to more Angelina, it is remarkable the effect she has on oneself.
Flying orb? You didn't happen to hear Klattu Barrada Nikto as it flew by? 🤣 You've heard more of her stuff than I have, but I have to agree with you that she doesn't just sing, she puts soul into it. And an old soul at that.
Hi Bob, Thank you for your nice reaction, but I would like to add that you are a great reactor on screen; very pleasant voice, relaxed performing and well done background research . Truly talented and professional !
This is the engineer his grandfather Who passed away and this is a tribute to him she says I see you my tears I know you can’t see me but I know you’re there another words in spiritual way she still in contact with you by knowing he’s there without seeing him it’s not a sad sad because she said love never dies and no matter you can’t see them that love can see I know you were there in my tears how do I can’t see you we’re never separated
Sorry about your loss, Bob. Angelina sings this original song with the utmost passion. When she belts, you hear the longing in her voice as if she is reaching out to communicate with her Grandpa.
What a wonderful way to react! I like what you said about her sincerity! The way she wants to share her love for the music and the songs she chooses (and makes) is heartbreaking! Added to her musicality and beautiful voice really makes her an angel!
Angelina sang this song for her maternal grandfather and she sang Always on My mind for the passing of her paternal grandfather. It is very much worth a listen.
Lovely reaction Bob this is such a positive message about a loved ones passing, pass the hanky. 2 other vids of this the official video and the lyrics vid with artwork. both are great .the lyric vid makes you concentrate and appreciate the lyrics a lot more. maybe a future reaction, why not. this was great though Bob, thanks.
I think you nailed it that she is crying out to her Grandpa and the universe. So, this song is for whoever lost someone..I hope it eases your pain. This is the 3rd version she released. She did cry her eyes out in the original lyric video..really good reaction ❤️
@@ModernLifeForThe70sMind please react to her latest own Song..7th Heaven. An uplifting Song about Life with hope. Again a special message from our Angel ❤️💞
@@ModernLifeForThe70sMind The lyric video is beautiful in it's own right and was the first released. It's audio is also on the 'music video' for which Angelina created the story board and has the lead in. Her sister and uncle play the young Angelina with her grandfather!
You wondered why Angelina didn't cry when she sang this song. This is partly because her grandfather already died two years earlier (on March, 4th 2018). And she cried indeed when she performed the song "Always On My Mind" (Elvis cover) one weak later (th-cam.com/video/dd8r7c-4-ks/w-d-xo.html) which she dedicated to her grandfather. It will be hard not to cry with her when you watch that.
Just to make it clear. Angelina sang "Always on my mind" as a tribute to her paternal grandfather who died in 2018 and the video was released shortly afterwards. She wrote "Milliion miles" as a tribute to her maternal grandfather, who died in 2019. The song was first released as a Lyric video with animated graphics created by Mery Zamani, Angelina's maternal grandmother on 06 Nov 2020. The Studio version to which Bob reacted was released on 19 Dec 2020.
she always touches my heart. Thank you for your reaction. Funny how she affects this 76 yr old man. Just want to hug her.
Word of the day: Angelina
Certainly no problem with explaining the character or magnificence her singing as simply ‘Angelina’. For all the reasons you have articulated in your reaction videos, I believe she will be the benchmark for vocal art in the 21st century.
Losing your dad is excruciating. So very sorry. I know it’s now more than 3 months but still, pain of loss has no timeframe. This one leaves me in tears for my own Dad ♥️

She cried while singing this, not only for her own HUGE loss, but for everyone else as well .. Simple and incredibly sincere, listen again, and you'll hear it differently..Angelina has reached in to our hearts and strung stars all around it. PEACE & 🙏🏻'S for You. 🤗😇
Emerging GOAT
BR🇧🇻
Nobody wants this beautiful girl to cry but, her emotional song" always on my mind" also for her grandfather shows how real she is !!!!
Beautifully said, Bob .. really .. beautifully expressed .. especially "she holds his soul next to her heart" .. she is stunningly real in this and her grief calls rip at my heart.
Her grandfather passed away and it’s a tribute to him very close
Angelina said love never dies
Best reaction, you made me cry.
I lost my mother almost 2 yrs ago and my dad less than 2 months ago. Your words tonight....I cried

It feels like your looking in to her soul, but she's touching our souls! Every performance is special like every word!
Hey Scott. I agree!
@@ModernLifeForThe70sMind That proves it then "Great minds do think alike" Because your a Rush fan too! But seriously, she's next level.
Heard many reviews for this performance. Your understaning is the best.
Thank you.

I don’t know if you have seen it but there’s a video of her performances at Norways Got Talent-that she won at 7 years old. Unbelievably good

I case you wondered, apparently her grandfather told her that if she remained humble and kind, she'd never have to regret anything she did. 😎
Thanks for that Mike, rings true.
Wow, I hadn't heard that. Now I understand this song much more clearly.
what a wise grandfather
Great reaction to a great new song written & performed beautifully by our barefoot angel - Angelina.

She does an Adelle cover of the song All I Ask that is so very good. She also sings an original called 7th Heaven. Very jazzy
She’s an open book..utterly devoid of ego..she shows us her vulnerability and so we are drawn to her..add this to her stunning voice and beautiful song writing abilities and we are simply privileged to be able to share her journey. Your reaction was absolutely on the money..thank you and you take care too..listen to this song a few times more..it helps. 🙏
Really loved your reaction, that was really good. She's so special. 👍👍👍
This is the first song I ever heard of AJ and I cried my eyes out! been hooked ever since. Great reaction btw
Hi Mike. I get it. This is one of those sing that can really hit home for so many people.
This was a wonderful reaction, in her own words this is what she wants us to know...
“When I was in the booth, while I was singing, my tears were running,” she says.
“To be honest, it was like a feeling of relief that all my feelings were written down and I felt relieved. “Million Miles” means a lot to me because it is relevant to these difficult times. I definitely want to share my love to everyone, and I hope that people can connect with it and relate to the story behind the song.”

Angelina is such a courageous young lady for posting this ‘You’re Always In My Mind’ video dedicated to her grandpa who had passed: th-cam.com/video/dd8r7c-4-ks/w-d-xo.html (I read in a comment this was the first of her two grandfathers who had passed.) During an instrumental section near the end of the song, her mind appears freed from concentrating on the vocals for a moment and her emotions begin to dominate. (She is clearly in anguish at the end.) She is such a beautiful soul.
Bob it’s about her grandfather passed away it’s a tribute to him as he’s 1,000,000 miles away she can’t say no to her team she feels emerge tears but do you know he’s with her by the spirit she believes that love never dies
I could’ve loaned you my copy lol
Three different versions of it once you get home in Norway
Yes I’ll live from grandmother did art work Lyrics only
Beautiful reaction to a beautiful song and voice
Hello again Bob :-) For once, I'll make this short : BEAUTIFUL reaction, my friend!!! How about that, ey ? Take care and have an awesome weekend :-)
Having a box of tissues at hand is about the only preparation you can do with this song. It is so powerful and emotional, this is cathartic medicine.
it's an original Angelina that she wrote after her grandfather died
I hope Angelina see's your reaction and hears your comments.
THanks for a sensitive, bare reaction. Again sorry for your loss. It gets less sore in time and we can focus on the good memories.
Thanks so much Nils.
Hi Bob, I'm sure you recognized those parts of the song that always give me goosebumps. It's one of her first own song. And then about such a strong feeling, the grief over her beloved grandfather, that only works because she opens her heart and soul and lets us share in her pain. I lost my father a little over a year ago. That's when I heard this song for the first time. I could understand all the feelings. She screams her pain out. In the lyrics she talks about the beautiful memories that will stay with us forever. He will always be with her, he is in her heart.
Sorry, but you've already said all that - just in different words. But you also recently lost your father and you can relate to it as much as I can. My sympathies.
A great achievement for a girl who was only 14 at the time. Well she's a musical genius and then it's not surprising anymore. I still admire this achievement. For me it's her best song precisely because she opens her heart and soul. I believe this song will help many people cope better with the loss of a loved one.
I would like to recommend you a song. For me, both songs form a unit when it comes to how Angelina deals with the grief for her grandfather.
Background to this song: Angelina came from her grandfather's funeral and then said goodbye in her own way. It's actually unbelievable that she released this video with her deepest feelings and sadness. She fights back tears to the end. Notice how she slides back and forth in the chair. (2019)
- Always on my mind 12 years old - th-cam.com/video/dd8r7c-4-ks/w-d-xo.html - Elvis cover
Have a nice weekend and
Greetings from Germany (Summer is coming, it's getting warm)
After watching your great reaction to Million Miles for a 2nd time, just wanted to thank you for sharing your own personal loss with us. Angelina also did an acoustic cover as a specific tribute to her late grandfather - Always On My Mind. While I thoroughly enjoy & look forward to all of your Angelina reactions, please consider creating separate playlists for the artists you cover (or at least for Angelina :). As your list of Angelina reactions grows, it would make it much easier for us to identify all the Angelina songs you've already reacted to so that we're only requesting those that you haven't reacted to yet. Thank you. And may GOD continue to watch over & bless Angelina Jordan.
Bob, Angelina told in an interview, that when recording the song first time, for the lyrics video, tears were streaming down her face, but afterwards, so she said, she felt relieved. And please don´t forget, in the body of this 14 year old girl lives a mind, 20 years older. She is a highly gifted person. Bless you, and good health to you. German greetings.
In an interview with America Songwriter, Angelina shared her feelings while recording the song, “When I was in the booth, while I was singing, my tears were running,” she says. “To be honest, it was like a feeling of relief that all my feelings were written down and I felt relieved. “Million Miles” means a lot to me because it is relevant to these difficult times. I definitely want to share my love to everyone, and I hope that people can connect with it and relate to the story behind the song.” 🤗🤗
Great reaction
That was an angel flying by your head lol 🙂. Your reaction was just as powerful and heartfelt as the song itself as you truly related to it (my condolences for your father). As you said , her voice is music, no need for an orchestra. One of the judges on her first presence on Norway's got talent made the exact same statement: "You are music". You really get this wonderful girl!
👍❤️
As they said in the Norway got talent, she is music and she sings with emotions like very few others and make us feel it and remember it. She does sing "Always on my mind" as a tribute to her grandfather, I think it was 2 days after he died and she end up crying, it is very emotional, see it but maybe not do a reaction to it as it is very sad.
Yes, but that was on the death of her other grandfather. The two died within a year of each other.
All very well said, Bob. I loved your very astute take on what separates Angelina from great entertainment singers like Dimash and Diana.
"Always On My Mind" is another song dedicated to her grandfather. He is in a picture behind her. She breaks down at the end. Very emotional.
Angelina wrote recorded and performed this age 14 years old Angelina’s first original when she signed with Republic Records , Angelina wrote this as a tribute to her grandfather who passed away !
Whoa Bob...man did you get what this young lady was conveying to all of us...really great comments and so spot on. She wrote a beautiful song for her beloved Grandpa at 14 years old and what she said about this song was, it is not only about her loss but she wrote it for everyone who has lost a loved one in their life...simply a brilliant young lady with such a heart and soul and she exposes it to all of us. And yes, the belting parts of this song is like a scream to her grandad to hear her and let him know she knows he is still here watching over her... rather a sad song in some ways but also a heeling song for all of us with loss in our lives. She is a true vocal artist and so happy to have her in my life. Wonderful reaction video Bob....cheers and have a great weekend. For your health and well being, listen to more Angelina, it is remarkable the effect she has on oneself.
Beautiful Song and has soul ,such a wonderful human being so wish there were more Peoplelike this person just Love it FRANCES fromScotlandxx.
Flying orb? You didn't happen to hear Klattu Barrada Nikto as it flew by? 🤣
You've heard more of her stuff than I have, but I have to agree with you that she doesn't just sing, she puts soul into it. And an old soul at that.
When you encounter nature, don't kill it (the fly) ;)
Hi Bob,
Thank you for your nice reaction, but I would like to add that you are a great reactor on screen; very pleasant voice, relaxed performing and well done background research . Truly talented and professional !
She is such a sweet talent to listen to - sincerely genuine in the feelings she exudes to her audience. Love listening to her.
Excellent reaction and commentary! Thanks...
This is the engineer his grandfather
Who passed away and this is a tribute to him she says I see you my tears I know you can’t see me but I know you’re there another words in spiritual way she still in contact with you by knowing he’s there without seeing him it’s not a sad sad because she said love never dies and no matter you can’t see them that love can see I know you were there in my tears how do I can’t see you we’re never separated
Hi William. Those beliefs got me through the loss of both of my parents. Thanks for sharing that!
Sorry about your loss, Bob. Angelina sings this original song with the utmost passion. When she belts, you hear the longing in her voice as if she is reaching out to communicate with her Grandpa.
Thanks Jerry. It's nice to hear an original song from her.
What a wonderful way to react! I like what you said about her sincerity! The way she wants to share her love for the music and the songs she chooses (and makes) is heartbreaking! Added to her musicality and beautiful voice really makes her an angel!
Angelina sang this song for her maternal grandfather and she sang Always on My mind for the passing of her paternal grandfather. It is very much worth a listen.
It was great. I'm happy I chose this one.
It was the first song I saw that she was tearing up. Incredible that she was able to do the whole song until the end.
Saw it!
Appreciate it! :)
Lovely reaction Bob this is such a positive message about a loved ones passing, pass the hanky. 2 other vids of this the official video and the lyrics vid with artwork. both are great .the lyric vid makes you concentrate and appreciate the lyrics a lot more. maybe a future reaction, why not. this was great though Bob, thanks.
so nice words, thanks
I think you nailed it that she is crying out to her Grandpa and the universe. So, this song is for whoever lost someone..I hope it eases your pain. This is the 3rd version she released. She did cry her eyes out in the original lyric video..really good reaction ❤️
Thank you! I'll have to search for the others. I wasn't aware that there were more out there.
@@ModernLifeForThe70sMind please react to her latest own Song..7th Heaven. An uplifting Song about Life with hope. Again a special message from our Angel ❤️💞
@@ModernLifeForThe70sMind The lyric video is beautiful in it's own right and was the first released. It's audio is also on the 'music video' for which Angelina created the story board and has the lead in. Her sister and uncle play the young Angelina with her grandfather!
@@hans-georgschroter7887 He reacted to 7th Heaven already. It was blocked and then released 1 month ago
this is an original song of hers she wrote it after her grandfather died
Thanks Peter. Looks like she nailed it.
Next reaction should be AJ cover of Autumn Leaves! I have feeling you will like it. If reactors pick top AJ covers Bet it will be part.
Yep, it's bookmarked and getting higher on the list. It will definitely be one that I react to. Thanks.
👍👍🤩🤩👍👍
You wondered why Angelina didn't cry when she sang this song. This is partly because her grandfather already died two years earlier (on March, 4th 2018). And she cried indeed when she performed the song "Always On My Mind" (Elvis cover) one weak later (th-cam.com/video/dd8r7c-4-ks/w-d-xo.html) which she dedicated to her grandfather. It will be hard not to cry with her when you watch that.
Just to make it clear. Angelina sang "Always on my mind" as a tribute to her paternal grandfather who died in 2018 and the video was released shortly afterwards. She wrote "Milliion miles" as a tribute to her maternal grandfather, who died in 2019. The song was first released as a Lyric video with animated graphics created by Mery Zamani, Angelina's maternal grandmother on 06 Nov 2020. The Studio version to which Bob reacted was released on 19 Dec 2020.
@@alberttenfoot Thank you for the clarification! I didn't know.
14?!?!
🇺🇲😎👍💯🌟
She did break- down ( her words). Ciao she wrote it. Where is her talent? Composer, arranging, singer , story- tekker.
She turn your hard turtle shell into turtle soup.
LOL, that's a unique way to describe that.
