This song was my introduction to Angelina. My wife was watching AGT and I was in another room. She called to me and said I needed to listen to this young girl sing. So I did. And I did about a dozen more times that night. Every time she hit that high note I choked up a little. And I’m like, this is crazy. It was like a drug. That evening I went on TH-cam and started watching everything I could find. Great reaction Adam
Agree!
Did you find "I'm still holding out for you" ? :)
Mathilde Eide yes. One of her best songs I believe. Too bad there’s so much controversy surrounding it
@@jeffreyjameson5510 True. It's my favorite. Such an achievement, and such a shame it wasn't released.
Jeffrey, do yourself a huge favour, look up and listen to Angelina singing on Norway's talent show, which she WON, when she was ONLY SEVEN......you won't believe your ears!
Queen’s band has published a Tweet to her performance. For them it was a wonderful rendition of the song.
Angelina is a musical genius!
Didn’t Queen give her the copyright for this version of the song?
They did, and she has recorded it since.
It's not just her amazing voice..it's her beauty, it's her personality, it's her sweetness, it's her humbleness.
Angelina's totality is breathtaking ...
John Creighton Couldn’t agree more, John. We listen to her music because she is so talented. But we support her because of who she is.
Well said John
@@lydiabentley3413 Thank you sweetheart ..
Yes Queen sent her a message that Freddie would be so proud....they loved it!!!!!
I Love hearing that! Thankyou for you sharing that❣‼❤
Truth be told...she technically won. However since the winner gets a recording contract with good ole Simon and her parents refused the contract, the next in line technically won the competition.
Her parents stated years ago, that they wanted her to have as normal a childhood as possible so no contracts for now. They also experienced the aftermath of her victory in Norway so they are rightfully protecting their precious daughter.
Plus she is doing absolutely gr8 singing and building an extensive fan base without any contracts to squeeze the juices out of her at this stage of her young life!
Simon knew exactly what he was getting...the show had been trying to get Angelina for quite some time and finally agreed to allow her to participate without any contractual obligations to Simon's companies.
Her family kept her away from AGT
Until she could perform without getting tied down by AGT . Also Brian May contacted her and praised her version .
Put the gift of her emotive voice aside. She arranged & orchestrated that. She always has. You exude such pride while she sings. 😂So sweet. She’s a lovely young lady as well. They did comment & loved it.👍🏻 You do know why she performs barefoot, right? Continue to enjoy! 7/23/22
I don't think I will ever get tired of watching people react to Angelina Jordan, & I still get chills when I hear her sing this song, which is probably close to 100th times now!!! Thank you for your thoughtful & insightful reaction ❤️
What I love about her, is her ability to convey the emotion. It makes you pay attention to the lyrics. Even when 8 or 9, she conveyed a deep emotional connection to each song.
Her rendition of "A Million Years Ago" is mind boggling.
Thank you for your amazing reaction to our barefoot angel. You stated everything so perfectly. We all hope Republic allows her to stay true to herself for most of her music.
You hit the nail on the head when you talked about Angelina as "family." We watched her grow from a tiny child with an amazing voice into the amazing artist you witnessed today. BTW, she already released this as a single in January. She has also been working on album as an independent artist that has been on temporary hold due to Covid-19. I don't know what's on it or how Republic Records plans to finish it, now that they have her under contract. Glad you finally had the opportunity to hear this out of this world performance. Very, very nice reaction Adam.
Initially misread the word "contract" as "control" in your comments and my heart went into overdrive, as my mind responded "No one controls Angelina" :-) Now my feet have reached firm ground again, totally agree with what you say.
@@alberttenfoot 😂 You are correct, she's "the boss."
@@alberttenfoot funny i read control as well at first, and im also back on firm ground =)
@@MrTombre lol
Shivers up and down my spine every time I have listened to this version. I am sure Freddy is proud of Angelina and about her outfit as well!!!!
The depth of tone & feeling that she produces at that 'nothing really matters' phrase speaks to my soul every time...
Queen tweeted out their congratulations after the performance.
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, died, the same day Angelina is born 😊 Loved your reaction!!!
Now that you watched this, next would be Goodbye Yellow Brick Road on AGT Champions
Adam, this song on AGT was my introduction to Angelina and ive been listening to her heartfelt performances since. That in turn has led me to many reactors, vocal coaches and new artists. I have a new appreciation for music and how special Angelina is😊. Thanks again for a beautiful reaction🍻👊
Queen posted the performance on their social medias afterwards: Wow,What a rendition of bohemian rhapsody
Tom Bredesen where?
@@angelawhite4795 twitter and others, i think someone posted a link in another comment on this reaction
An iconic piece of music, exquisitely re-imagined by Angelina, which honours the original, but never fails to surprise. She's a master in her craft.
This performance was the culmination of many years of learning ang growing with her enormous musical gift.
A big part of her charm is that she is grounded by her family. She isn’t the typical teenybopper that likes to mimic.
She is the creator of her music and delivery. And I feel, as I listen to her, that she is thoughtful, sincere, and focused.
Thank you for your input. I love your emotional reactions to Angelina’s great talent.
We have all been waiting for you to do this one! It was a good idea to cover some of her other works before coming to this one. I think by having a good background on Angelina you have a much deeper appreciation for this one. I think you got a little taste of what it was like for all of her fans that have been following her for years. When I watched this as it aired, it was such a special moment. In the months leading up to AGT all her fans were speculating on what song she might sing. There were lots of guesses, but I don't think anyone guessed Bohemian Rhapsody. I can even describe the goosebumps when she sang that first line.
I can't imagine the pressure of having 2.5 minutes to show the whole world what she could do. She went up there and did it so well, with such grace and humility. She packed so much into that short performance. And she used just enough of each of her little flavorings to show that she had it, but without showing it off.
I know that you are going to listen to this many times again (probably already have), and you will find that the more you hear it the more your appreciation grows for what she was able to do there. It's just a masterpiece IMO. You asked what we thought of it... I could literally write 10 pages on what I think of it ;)
Well said : )
Truth.
Rusty. A totally excellent comment and so accurate
I’ve seen this video multiple times and it still gives me shivers and goosebumps
Right?! It's everything!
Me too! 😁
me three
I've seen this maybe 150 times and I'm still loving it.
@@AdamStraughan Dear Adam, Here's a video not for reaction but just for your heart. th-cam.com/video/fvMQ_xStg9M/w-d-xo.html Earth To God just recently released and John Rich is donating his 10% proceeds to the charity within the video. Please have some tissues handy. I personally think we ALL should watch this video but you and your listeners is my farthest reach out. Blessings to you and yours. 💖🙏🙏🙏
I'll probably never forget the moment this performance went on air. Living in Europe, I had to stay up 'till the middle of the night to see it "live" and no one had any idea what song she was going to sing .... and her opening a capella phrase had me totally stunned. What a brave move to chose this song, all I could think was _"This girl got guts"_ and I was totally frozen until the end of her song - probably just like that open mouth girl we see in the audience towards the end .... It was such a wonderful moment and I still get those goose bumps and _shivers down my spine_ as I did that first night.
From several thousand miles away in California, I was sitting right beside you feeling the importance of the moment.
From Orlando, ditto : )
From Edmond, Oklahoma, same thing. I still get chills and tears every time I hear it.
She sang so softly that the audience didn't dare interrupt her. She had everybody's rapt attention. It was a stunning, masterful performance. She is so damn good!
That acapella opening was the first thing I have ever heard from her mouth and it was enough to make me her fan probably forever.
To me, the best part of her performance is not the magnificent belting, or the confident acapella, or all the beautiful runs.. It was the 'I don't want die...' part. I know she was just singing a song, and she was only 13 at the time, an innocent kid at that, but it sounded so earnest, so honest, so real, and so convincing, as if she sings from her own truth. Amazing.
Yes!!
I finally got those lines for the first time, how she sang it
So very true : )
Kid sun. Angelina made us feel every note
After her performance, Simon said to her “I don’t think you know how good you are.” We know. Amazing reaction, Adam. We knew you’d be one of her biggest supporters!
some 8 months or so later i still get chills
Listening to Angelina is always so emotionally charged for me. Her arrangements make me think about the words and her voice tells a story. Your reactions to her are so genuine and I can’t wait for the next one. Thank you for being u 💕
So true
Sounds like a 1940s jazz club!! YES!!! Timeless talent.
Thank you Adam you are an amazing reactor. Your remarks are so true and represents what thousands, if not millions, of fans think about this performance and Angelina.
WOW!! Bonus day. Brilliant, beautiful reaction Adam, as we knew it would be. Queen did acknowledge her and the show did accomplish her goal. Let's face it...... you can not refuse to sign Simon's contract and expect to win as well. Refusing his contract and having Simon change the rules to let you on without a contract, is maybe the biggest tell of all. Really, she won in every way. I often wonder how often anyone has watched V- Unbeatable, the winners, again since the show? And if so, how often? I alone have watched and listened to Angie, easily hundreds of times since the show. I would think that the ratio of people that have revisited the both of them could realistically be 10,000 to 1 for Angie. What she did in this performance alone shows her genius and the priceless, loving, humble spirit that the world so desperately needs today. The expectations of her are enormous, even before her record deal. I think she will deal with them effortlessly and show the world how it is done. She is family, is a daughter, is music, is love and maybe most of all, is inspiration for so many.
Lovely reaction, Heidi gave her the golden buzzer for this preformance, She did not win the finale. But she got the buzzer, and i think she was the winner for the judges.
Nice reaction! The rest of the video would have shown Heidi Klum thanking the other judges for finally stopping with their comments so she could press down on the Golden Buzzer and send Angelina straight to the Finals. She had another mind-blowing performance when she did Goodbye Yellow Brick Road by Elton John. What disappointed a lot of people was that she did not win the competition, she came in 5th! What a crime! Oh well, at least being on the show expanded her fan base and getting more people to watch and listen to her TH-cam videos. She has an original song called Shield that she wrote and composed which I think you would enjoy. Every time I hear her sing, I get goose bumps! Love this girl!
She didn't win; some circus act did, but she accomplished her mission. First, she wanted to impress Simon and she certainly did that! He knew he couldn't sign her , but she sure as shit blew him away. Plus, her popularity and exposure went from about half a billion admirers to more than double that in one performance. And what a performance it was! All three of her performances on the show were spectacular.
Mike, that was great what you said. Wait, I posted that same thought after the AGT Champions finale.
Mike, I really thought Angelina outclassed this show.
I hate to be spiteful but for me I have abandoned watching AGT because they have degenerated into what I call "gimp of the season". IE. someone in the list of contestants has to have some heart wrenching story to go along with their talent. While I know people have things that they overcome in life early AGT didn't depend on such gimmicks!
@@rwlewko I can recommend "The Voice" as alternative. Only singers and you'll see many more talents and much less emphasise on the back story. I've found more impressing vids on youtube from the Voice than from the AGT franchise.
@MIssy Jones Well of course they knew who she was. They didn't even need her to introduce herself. And I'm not sure her exemption from the contract rule isn't special. for The Champions. They know some of the contestants from previous years - like Jackie Evancho - already have contracts.
But Angelina has always made sure to retain control of her music and I'm sure Republic acquiesced to that .
@@BlackWolfSpirit Actually the acrobatic team from India was amazing, but there are other acrobatic groups that will rise to match their act.
I can't think of another singer/song writer that I would compare to Angelina. There have been young singers like Brenda Lee. Bob Dylan wrote and sang at a young age, but he didn't make an impression until he was in his late teens - older than Angelina is now. Neither of these singers nor any others of the time covered the scope of music that Angelina has mastered.
I compare Angelina's gift to that of Mozart. Angelina's sense of jazz, pop music, her ability to rework classic arrangements into something uniquely hers, her amazing new compositions, her vocal range and her rich, deep, soulful voice she adapts to so many different styles shows genius!!! Absolute genius!!!
Angelina is a force to be reckoned with. Nothing can be compared to her and to her seemingly god given
talent. And the voice and her humility are so precious and exquisite, value them while you can.
Be ever present To Angelina’s incredible essence and musical being while you can. This is a once in a lifetime
Experience.
young talent are coming and going, some stay longer, some are even famous, some artist are great , many vocals are amazing ,,,,,,,,,,,what Angelina brings to the table already ,,,,nobody else is able to do,,,,,,not the understanding, not the emotion, not the feeling, not the wisdom, not the transformation of age or generation,,,,what she does to us,,,, our souls and hearts,,,our minds is angelic ,,,,,we are being blessed even if some dont believe,,,,,,,,she is here for far more then just singing,,,,,,and she does it already,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,thanx Adam always a pleasure
You have said exactly what I felt the first time watching her performances throughout these last few years.... she is one of a kind...how lucky we are to experience her talent :)
very well said : )
Chris, yes, she is here to touch all of us. All of us? Yes. the WHOLE WORLD! I know exactly what you mean. She is truly a Messenger of Love to us all.
Thanks Chris for putting into words so well what many of us feel!!!
Angelina Astar. Says it all.
I should also say THANK YOU Adam for the honest reaction. One of the family!
It was great watching the emotion on your face while Angelina was singing, Adam. You were clearly in awe, and your pride and love for her were on display. Thank you for a great reaction!
Her artistic maturity, melodic expressiveness and interpretative power need to be recognized, appreciated and celebrated. We all grow on the wings of artists. Thank you for your reaction to her rendition of this legendary music. I really appreciate your emotional candor and the refinement of your analysis of this brilliant artist. Obrigado./Thank you.
WOW, what a reaction! You're one of the best i've seen and heard with this song. Angelina is a genius. She captivates many of us with her ability to perform anywhere possible! Thank you, keep it up!
Actually, Queen did see it. And shortly after the performance they tweeted this: "WOW! What a great rendition of Bohemian Rhapsody. #angelina jordan". I'm sure they have heard many attempts to cover this iconic song, and they are probably rarely impressed. So coming from Brian, et. al., this is very high praise. This performance made her known to many people around the world, and the golden buzzer (came from Heidi, which you missed) was written and talked about all that week. Angelina was almost finished with her newest album (all originals) when the pandemic hit. She has not posted anything new this year. So my guess is that Republic (her record company) is helping her complete the album, and looking at ways to promote and market it. I have no clue when and how that will all come about. But she's with a very good company, and her future looks very bright. And concerning family, I think we all feel that we are a part of her family. She refers to us as her "Angels", and if that's how she wants to frame it, I'm perfectly fine with it---and proud to be an "Angel" in her behalf. Thanks Adam, for another great reaction to the fabulous Angelina. So glad you finally got to hear this one. 😊💕 P. S.: You missed the golden buzzer, so if you would like to see it, it's at the end of this version: th-cam.com/video/7gQljxeaNuM/w-d-xo.html
Angelina got the golden buzzer from Heidi Klum....she performed 3 songs on AGT. The second performance, she did her own version of Elton John’s song “Goodbye Yellow Brick Road” and her last performance was a trio, with two other artists, the song she sung was Someone You Love. Angelina was better than all the acts....the show is actually rigged. Angelina didn’t win cuz she didn’t sign a contract with AGT...so kudos to Angelina, she doesn’t need AGT. I believe her uncle has been a big supporter, helping her in the music industry, I think he has a huge roll of her singing with a label. Great reaction, looking forward to seeing more. Cheers
In a recent interview, her uncle/manager said that AGT always wanted Angelina to perform on the show but were always turned down because she didn’t want any contractual arrangements that might bind her and restrict her artistic creativity. Finally AGT relented and gave Angelina what she wanted. They needed her for their ratings and she needed the exposure in America.
Congratulations for getting to the 15k subscribers mark. Very well deserved. I have seen many reactors that post so many videos and always remind people to subscribe but their channels hardly grow. What I discovered about you other than the fact that you are very knowledgeable about music, is the fact that you always show respect to the artists and your viewers whether you like the performances or you don’t and agree with the comments or you don’t.
Thank you and keep up the good work.
David Touma - Do you have a link to that interview with her uncle/manager?
Well said : )
David, I've gone into a lot of detail about what happened and why she finished 6th. But, what I really wanted to share with you is the fact that Heidi actually gave it away when she told Angelina just before she began to sing, "Thank you for coming!" Huh? Thank you for coming? Sounds to me like she was a guest, not a contestant.
Suffice to say the ridiculous voting set up actually made it easy for AGT to accept the judges decisions. And, I think we all agree that the Yellow Brick Road, although masterfully done by Angelina, was not a good song for the finals. However, it didn't matter because the final result was already decided on. AGT went as far as to put her against the top Filipino singer in the elimination stage.
Otherwise, the audience might have rioted if she was eliminated by a gymnastics team!
So well done, Adam! So great to see that you understand us long-time fans of Angelina (I discovered her when she was 8 years old). We see our angel grow and we hope and tremble because we know that her way will lead her inevitably among the sharks. And we are happy that her family knows this and protects her. It moved me to tears how she apologizes to her family in her song "Shield" for being a burden to her family with "all that she is".
Dani Atkinson is a singer who reacts to music videos and she auditioned to AGT and made it to the final 12 (to get to perform on the show). She has said a few times that there are agreements made behind the scenes but she (and anyone else who has tried out for AGT) are not allowed to discuss the details of those agreements. So we will never know what agreement was made between Angelina and AGT. Personally, I think Angelina truly wanted to perform on AGT for the exposure to help her mission to improve the quality of life for children. I did find it interesting that after getting the Golden Buzzer, all 4 judges went up on stage to congratulate Angelina. I have not watched AGT very often. Is that normal??
Adam, You are spot on when you said Angelina makes us proud as if we are her parents. Angelina has a huge fan base of men in the senior years and being one myself I can say that she brings forth pride and our nurturing side. We can’t help ourselves because we recognize how special she is. Angelina is an extremely rare individual. We know we have one of God’s angels in our midst and we want to protect her from the dark side of the entertainment business. We recognize that her soul is pure and uncorrupted and we want to preserve that unique and special aspect of her personality.
She was to big for the Show, she dont want to sign wth Simon and therefore she could not win the Show. There are two more wonderful Performance with standing ovation on this Show to react for you
But she won the Attention of whole US and now she is training for her own Show with her own songs💖🥰
Angelina signed with Republic Records as a priority. Republic also has Taylor Swift and many other top acts. This is a far better deal for her. Great news.
You know when she smashes that high note?
It reminds me of a time when I desperately and recklessly over reved my car that was hopelessly stuck in snow. Her powerfull voice reaches a crescendo of frustration and resignation as if forced by circumstance to surrender to her fate.
One of many gems from Norway :-)
Can recommend her own single SHIELD.
Just her voice captivating the world not much else needed!! Liquid Gold
Super reaction and of course she got the golden buzzer from Heidi another note at the very end of the tv version Simon walks up to Angelina gives her hug and says I don’t think you know how good you are she smiles and Simon says REALLY
Yes most of us feel like a parent or grand parent because we have witnessed her perform and grow, from her having missing teeth to the waving byes, the big hair, and her Angel face, im so proud of her achievements and her hard work, she is very special and I can say I will be following her music as long as I'm here, ok and in Heaven too...LOL. Thank you Adam for this reaction to Angelina, please continue there are many more you have not yet heard .
I would very much like you to react to the other 2 songs she sound, "Goodbye yellow brick road" and " Someone you love" please...thank you!
Thanks Adam, it was worth the wait! Great reaction - of course. I loved her arrangement and execution and am so glad Queen loved it too and gave her recognition for it. The Mamas & The Papas also gave her public recognition for her cover of "California Dreaming. Patiently waiting more more - thanks again!
Have you listened to her original song, "Shield" yet? I love it. I can't wait for more originals. FYI after this aired she recorded this song as an original arrangement. She received raves from Queen. That's why this song was removed from AGTs youtube channel. This event changed her life forever. 🥰
Normally i can withstand starting crying on this song but your reaction... no...again.
All i can say: The notes are thankful when touched by Angelinas voice and this performance is already written into the book of music forever.
You were so right to react to this performance after you had heard and reacted to many Angelina songs. It does give you another sense of who she really is as an artist and as a person and makes you appreciate this performance so much more. And I want to emphasize that you can see in this video how humble, honest and natural she is! No fuzz, no frills. Just her and a piano. That was enough to conquer the world. She got the golden buzzer from Heidi and went directly through to the finals.
Now you MUST react to her performance of "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road" another stunner!
Queen did tweet about her performance and were very proud of her, as I'm sure dear Freddie must be wherever he is ♥
I'm glad you finally got to react to BR's version of Angelina and thanks for the amazing reaction, Adam. It's hard to react to an interpretation like this, you can only be impressed by the fact that Angelina at only 13 years old was able to face a challenge with such an iconic song as this and made her become her own song, with a fantastic reworking, a calm, powerful and terribly emotional interpretation and a great courage to take him to one of the most difficult audiences of the show. The best of Angelina ... is Angelina, 😆 🤗
She searched her way for her version of the song and chose the lyrics that fit. Simply, changing the times and the reading key, based on her ability to understand and elaborate the song which, for a girl of that age, is almost supernatural, she created HER Bohemia Rhapsody. She just loves singing and does it her way. ❤️
The 3 year old little girl in Norway had a dream, while watching the Talents on TV, to sing one day for Simon, I would say that after only 10 years she achieved it really well, she fascinated him ... and not just him!
Isn't explainable how it is possible, that every time I, and many other fans, listen to this interpretation of her (I must have heard it at least a few hundred times), I am carried away by her voice and by the emotion that arouses me ...
First of all, the legendary Queen are enthusiastic about Angelina's arrangement. Queen shared Angelina's performance on their official Twitter account. Second, as an Angelina fan since 2014, I knew the date of January 6th from her auditions on US television. I was shocked when I found the first video on TH-cam at 5 a.m. German time in the morning and read Bohemian Rhapsody in the title. I was so excited, my hands were shaking and after the first line I knew that ANGELINA had done it again. ✌️😎🇩🇪🇪🇺💯 *AJ* 💯
Her genius and talent and mature artistry does make me proud, makes us all proud. And yes, it is a parental feeling. When you watch it again, go to the absolute end. I enjoy your reactions to Angelina very much. It’s like two friends admiring a sunset; the experience is magnified by the shared emotions. Thank you for your unfettered, genuine response, my friend.
Did you notice the woman who was the first on her feet cheering and applauding at the end? That was Angelina's grandmother.
Thank you Adam!
I came to your channel when you first reacted to Angelina and so glad that you have gotten to enjoy the journey Angelina sends us on! I also love that Dimash is on your reaction list as well...both Angelina and Dimash are 2 of my most favorites to listen to. BTW waiting for you and your father’s reaction to Dimash’ Ogni Pietra! Cheers and love your reactions!
That was a great reaction Adam to Angelina & a nice little commentary, it was spot on.
History was made, If anyone's brave enough to do this song, in her rendition of the song, they'll be compared to her, for it's her song now. Think of it she took a iconic classic rock opera & stripped it down & turned it into a jazzy/bluesy, soulful ballad at age 13. Please support her music, CD's, iTunes, etc.. So many (even Disney) producers have been trying to get her to sign with them. Her & her mom just tell them no, (she wants to finish school 1st). Her family is very protective of her, they even formed a production co. for her (Angelina Jordan inc.) so to try & keep the industry’s claws out of her. She's a rare talent that comes by once in a lifetime. Angie is music. She can do any genre & sound better than most originals & she's still very young too. She’s 14 as of 1-10-20. She made her outfit using the pattern of an artwork, from her grandmother. She makes several of her other outfits too for shows & concerts. Her uncle got a great lawyer & she just signed with Republic records as of end of Aug 2020 (she won’t show on site until her 1st album comes out). She’s their top priority right now.
I hope you buy her CD when it comes out & react to it.
A God given voice & talent. What amazing timbre, texture, liquid gold vibrato & amazing rare skill of tremolo & the pitch perfect skill as well as her Melisma’s are out of this world, also no sound comes out of her mouth unless she wants it too, control beyond most of the pro adult singers, etc She's very sweet, respectful, humble, giving, & a loving Christian in real life too. She selects, arranges & composes her songs while still being respectful to the original. She has written 3-4 songs plays 4+ instruments & is trying to learn a little Saxophone right now. Speaks 3-4 languages & sings in 4+ languages etc.. .English isn’t her 1st language, it’s her 3rd. She also gives a lot to charities & helps out children who really need it.
Queen was blown away too.
I hope you react to these songs by Angelina Jordan

Only 1 word to describe Angelina that everyone says "WOW!!!"
Warning once you watch her & react you'll be hooked, & there's no cure.
I believe she was put here for such a time as this so that God could use her voice to calm everyone down.
Like Angelina, Laura is also a prodigy that has a lot of character & class too. She also has a God given voice, talent & character. You could watch Opera/Pop/Christian crossover singer Laura Bretan starting with 2016 moving forward when she was 13 at the time th-cam.com/video/W3Mn_WbB0mo/w-d-xo.html AGT audition she’s 13

Neither Angelina nor Laura signed with Simon, they both got 6th place etc. Both are Bigger than AGT & are doing fine etc..
Adam, that was an excellent reaction to my favourite singer singing one of my favourite songs ever. Your face said so much too and your reactions are always thoughtful and worth hearing. This performance is the only one ever that gave me goosebumps when I first heard it.
Adam, you talked about "family" and it is so appropriate. I include you with Angelina in my family and when I saw this coming up I actually started to tear up because I knew what you were just about to listen to and experience. You did a great job holding back any tears although I could see you came very, very close. Adam, when you look at it alone let it all out. We have all gone through it and it is so, so beautiful. I am so happy for you. You are family and I have been waiting and waiting for you to completely come aboard and now, you have! In closing, you are right. There is still a lot for you to hear and I will enjoy your reactions to Angelina. She is truly a Messenger of Love.
For the firs time in my life I have watch a singer grow from the start in Norway got Talent in 2014 with also turn me into a fan for the first time and to the present day and I so looking forward into the future of this wonderful amazing artist. Thank for for all your wonderful reaction Adam Straughan. Smile.
Adam that was the correct reaction! I still can't make words after I hear her sing. I watched this live and thought It doesn't matter if she wins. A million people are thinking where can I buy a ticket for her concert! I was!
There are various edits of this. This one cuts off the golden buzzer. There is an even longer one showing Simon come up to her on stage and saying, "Do have any idea how good you are?"
Adam. Your self-control to have avoided watching this famous performance is really commendable. I have to admit that, for me, this performance was my first introduction to AJ. I have watched all your reaction videos to AJ (in chronological order) and it has been so fun to see your appreciation grow as your realization grew about what she can do.
I do have my concerns for her future as the adulation of so many people onto one person can have very, very negative consequences. Like yourself, many have praised her character for the back story of her going barefoot. However, character is malleable and I have come to be concerned over this crush of attention on someone still so young. I certainly hope that she avoids the common traps of becoming prideful, disdainful, etc.. No one is perfect. I fully expect that she will make some bad decisions in that long life that lies before her. You talk about feeling parental concern for AJ. That echoes in me as well. Let us therefore go and encourage her without imposing on her our model of perfection. So, with a deep breath, let's see what's next!
tevvya you echo my feelings. Things can go terrible wrong. The problem for old people like me that don't have kids, it also feels for me that she is my own daughter that I care for .
tevvya In her book on the ninth page she writes these words: “Living with the love of others is a heavy burden. I want to be a star. A star cannot shine without darkness. And I want to shine more and more.” Now that is pretty deep writing for a 6 year old. Maybe she was 9 when she wrote this part. Only she knows. But it can be taken two ways. She writes this after meeting the young girl but before she decides to give her the shoes she was wearing. The love of others could be interpreted as the pressure she feels being loved by so many or the pressure she feels caring about all the less fortunate children of the world. Works both ways. She wants to be a star but a star cannot shine without darkness. I feel she used darkness as a metaphor for sadness. She is just so intuitive and artistic. Pain and sadness seem to be such an inspirational emotion for so many artists. And that worries me a little. She has shown a fondness for this type of song. But I know she has a very strong support team. I think her grandma and her are very much the same.
@@jeffreyjameson5510 Angelina's grandmother was also a "child prodigy" as a poet and author. They share much in common. Now grandmother is teaching her to paint.
The highest compliment one can give to Angelina and one that she would treasure in her soul, is not to say, as a reasonable, objective recognition, that she is a child prodigy or a musical genius.
It is to say, rather, like you did, Adam, six times, first in your intro, at the 0:39 mark, as a subjective, intuitive observation, that she is "an incredible artist".
For, it is one thing to be a singer, a vocalist, but it is another to be an artist.
It is one thing to be an amazing artist, but it is quite another to be an incredible artist, in the strict meaning of the term, which is impossible to believe or beyond belief.
- and her version of "Yellow Brick Road" , is closer to the true meaning of the YBR expression in "The Wizzard of Oz", than it was in Elton John´s version
I can't make up my mind whether your decision to react to Angelina's Bohemian Rhapsody was timely or premature. It did give me an excuse to watch and listen to the performance again - as if I needed one. Yet I fear you will hold the opinion that this is Angelina's "ultimate" performance, although I did note your remark that you were not certain that it was your favourite one. On balance? Yes, I am delighted you reacted to this, especially for your facial expressions during the whole performance. You didn't really need to say anything afterwards :-)
As you have got to the teenage Angelina, perhaps you would like to react to what I consider her most heart wrenchingly emotional performances. It is her version of Chris Isaac's "Wicked Game". All the singers I have heard perform this song treat it as a love song. Angelina is the only one who recognises it for what it is - a song of obsession, or if you will, obsessive love. Should you wish to react to it, the best version is a video produced by Sune Amtoft, which may be found at the following location: age 13 - "Wicked Game" - th-cam.com/video/5IAMF4FDfw4/w-d-xo.html
As a matter of interest, I have listened to three (I think) young singers perform Angelina's version of "Bohemian Rhapsody, since she released it under her label Angelina Jordan Inc.
I have been waiting for this reacation from you.
Love your analysis and love for all your artist that you react to especially Angelina and for that I want to say Thank you.
PS Brian May posted this video on there own Facebook page and gave Angelina there seal of approval.
Thank you! :)
So cool...
I feel exactly the same way about Angelina being a family member. Since I had seen nearly every one of her performances, rehearsals, birthday parties & interviews over a 3 year period, she is like a granddaughter. So when I watched this on TV it was overwhelming & I was extremely proud of her. BTW. your version cut the Golden Buzzer that the last judge, Heidi Klum, gave her. Here is a version with the GB so you can see it. It's a beautiful moment. th-cam.com/video/dngwV0MlRGE/w-d-xo.html Her 2nd performance at AGT-C was her cover of Elton John's iconic 70's song Goodbye Yellow Brick Road. It's just gorgeous & is my favorite Angelina song. I hope you will react to it. th-cam.com/video/HjsM3puKPrs/w-d-xo.html
Thanks for posting the buzzer version.
Seeing Angelina get the golden buzzer tears me up! So proud!
@@Lily-od6qx Me too!
Angelina 💯,(Adam💯 for your reaction 👍👌AGT?
Hi. You should lisen to goodbye yellow brick road 😍 Love from Norway
The performance that introduced AJ to Americans and for myself opened up a world of music with the likes of Dimash, Morrissette, Sohyang, Alan Walker and Blackpink. AJ will always command the stage and I look forward to her future works. Thanks!
I always love your reactions to her. It was meant to be a tour de force and it is a tour de force. She's so confident, so in command. Her little curtsey. So humble. She cries when Heidi presses the Golden Buzzer. I love the way Howie starts off annoyed and ends up beaming like a proud parent. And Alesha looks like she's going to cry. Even though the audience is coached, you could hear a pin drop even in the quietest parts. She said when she was young that she is never afraid when she sings. I've been listening to her Happier and loving it.
Adam, hi , from the very beginning of your journey with Angelina I subscribed and eagerly looked forward to your reactions of her. You never once disappointed. I felt akin to a father also as I watched her from the start on Norway's got talent. To have the opportunity to witness such greatness is truly a rarity. Thanks for all reactions to this wonderful and talented human being.
Such a lovely comment and so true
...wished I'd never been born...
Then that run of the deepest pain after that line. 😥 It's the first time I ever understood, felt the weight of that much dispear in those lyrics.
Oso, listen to the original Queen version and tell me if you think that run echos Brian May's guitar riff at the same point in the song.
@@karolyn8644 great idea
I have been following Angelina for a long time but when this aired, I was so nervous and anxious for her. Even though I knew she would deliver. Still couldn't help the feeling.
Should add that when she was 7, she sang a Billie Holiday song titled 'I'm A Fool To want You' and
did the whole song a'capela. You can then view the eldest male judge reacting with his mouth open.
Congrats on finally making it to this very special performance by Angelina. This was the first I’d heard of her last January while watching the show with my wife and I can’t seem to let a day pass without listening to her.
When I saw this the first time it was only her voice I heard. I was so exited and worried for her, but she delivered so well and got the golden buzzer. I don't think that there were more than a couple of hours sleep that night. I, we and the world loved it and "queen" themselfes wrote to her on instagram telling her that it was a beautiful version. That must be a Wow, wow and a wow.
Angelina is the best singer I have ever heard. Do I need to add anything to that?
NO
I agree. The best singer ever born. Crazy.
SHE'S GOOD. U MUST NOT HAVE HEARD MANY SINGERS.
@@m.gammon212 Ol. Limit our judgement on 21th century.. Name 3 female voices (not opera) better than this
Totally agree johnvasi
Three girls at 5.23 says it all... hands on face, gaping jaw and hands on heart! They are in a trance!
Thanks Adam, long due, but worth the wait!
As others have said, she didn't even get into top 5, but I think her mission were to present herself to the American public, which she definitely did.
In the finals, she sang Yellow brick road, again with her own spin, I think that is worth a reaction as well.
Angelina is a prodidgy, first time I heard her BR's version I cried, second time, I cried too and since then I get goosebumps each time I'm listening at it, her version is out of time and to me as legendary as the original version and don't misunderstand me, I Love the original, I have been a fan of Queen at the very beginning of the band, I have seen it 5 times in concert and of course Bohemian Rhapsody was part of the set list. So I was not surprise when Queen published a Tweet on her performance, her version is pure Genius.
I Loved your reaction, I could feel your emotions, very touching.
Stay safe.
Qué hermosa reacción. Tan espontánea tan profunda,tan cercana. Amé lo que hiciste en esta reacción.
Está adorable princesa de terciopelo con una voz que es oro líquido, ha sido un hermoso regalo para quienes amamos la música bellamente interpretada.
It’s just amazing and wonder-full
This always blows me away every time I hear her sing this. I can't believe anyone could hear this and not fall in love with her.😍
This song Angelina's way made me an addicted fan of hers. Love the song , love Angelina. Thanks for your reaction. I never get tired to listen.
Fearless as this is what she has been designed for.
So glad to see you hit the 15K subs....well deserved Adam as you are one of my favorite reactors...especially for Angelina, our singing prodigy. You received a lot of love on Angelina's fan page too. Your reactions are always sincere and heartfelt and much appreciated from all of us Angelina fans who have enjoyed your reactions. Hope you keep on the journey.
Carl D Thanks so much!
Love to Imagine that her interpetation og "yellow brick road" like a answer to why not signing with Simon
She does a brilliant rendition of Goodbye Yellow Brick Road in her second performance on this show, you should have a look. I agree with you that after following Angelina's developing talent through from 7yrs old to now somehow gives you almost a parental pride in her success! She has such a deserved confidence and yes, fearlessness like no other at her age.
Worth the wait, wasn't it? I have watched this performance hundreds and hundreds of times and it still brings tears to my eyes. Your reaction had me crying like a baby, but with tears of joy watching you in awe of what you were seeing and hearing. Even your comments had me crying. In my opinion, Angelina has a number of masterpieces, but this one is the piece de resistance. Now, back to the 100+ Angelina reactions you have yet to do. As you know, her fans can't get enough of them (and you)!
A lovely comment
She is "out of this world" INCREDIBLE‼ Her voice is mesmerizing. --- I get chills every time I hear her sing. -----Amazing❣
Thanks Adam👏 The best ones out there....🙂 both you and Angelina..
I could see your heart begin to race when Angelina pulled the pitch perfect opening note from out of nowhere. The way in which she tastefully incorporated her rasp and melismas was uncanny. Even the competitors in the green room were stunned. Angelina rearranged the piece as a dedication to her grandfather who had passed away. Before she gave you bon bons, but here the whole milk and white chocolate eclair. Absolutely delicious.
