This is just one of many that the greatest in history would love to have under their belt! and there are some that have broken reactors! Like complete break downs with uncontrollable crying where it touches you deeply while others changed where you can see the before and after Angelina Jordan transformation and some dedicating their channel to her! and this 58 year old guy and I'm still trying to figure it out for the past 5 years! So, when I say, she has touched the hearts of man and could command an army and change the world I mean she is a “World changer” and funny thing is she just in time! We all know what’s going on and we across the pond have criminals that need to be dealt with as our responsibility and unkept promises! I don’t say this lightly. I know more than I wish so burden is what I understand and it’s her fault I feel! I hope we have the will for you we let down the world! As a friend! If nothing more, we did! Sorry for the book! I made nothing up and have no regrets!
I have experienced this performance close to 125 times, and each time I lose my breath and get chill, and I might say, this performance has been viewed over 150 million times by others that I am sure have the same experience. No storytelling signature voice has ever caused me to experience these emotions on each and every performance, and I am 75.
I was reading that she went to a waldorf school and their focus is creativity, from the time she was little and until she left that school her creativity was the focus. This is why I believe she has done so well besides the fact her grandmother is an artist and poet herself.
I just discovered her 24 hours ago. I feel so blessed and happy to have found her! I have to keep my hankies handy. I cry just about every single one of her songs. She’s absolutely amazing!
I am often at a loss for words, when trying to describe Angelina Jordan's voice, or what genre she fits in, & I have come to accept, that she does not fit in any category, or genre, & is simply in a league of her own.....One thing I do know though, is every time I hear her voice, it touches my heart & brings out emotions, some of which, I didn't even know existed! What an amazing gift Angelina is!!! 💝
It's my understand that queen was so impressed with Angelina that they gave her the rights to this version of the song. What I heard was rights to it on Spotify but she's singing it in concert so I would imagine her version belongs to her
You are correct! Queen allowed her the copyrights to her version because they were so impressed when they saw her perform this on AGT, and expressed their approval on their Twitter account.
Thats a great reactin from you. Angelina is the best storyteller ever, her voice is magic and i am so happy to be here on earth at the same time like angelina, the goddess of music and voice, such agorgeous diva ever 👑♥️🌹💫
Whenever I see Angelina live I'm always amazed at the instant connection she makes with the entire audience. Hypnotized from the first note that slips out of her mouth, and for the rest of the performance you could hear a pin drop.
Angelina did an entire accepella song when she was 7 years old on NGT with all the other contestants standing behind her watching everything she did. She had no nerves the entire song
When you react to Bohemian Rhapsody take notice during her performance they highlight audience members in the front row. That is Angelina's Family. From left to right Her uncle and manager Michael Astar, her little sister Juliette, her mother Sarah Astar and her grandmother Mery Zamani. Notice her little sister crossing her fingers as the performance starts and later her mother wipe tears from her eyes. Also remember she said she had waited 10 years to sing for Simon. When she was 3 years old she was begging her mother to go on 'that Simon show'. A child prodigy who started singing Whitney Houston at 1 & 1/2, Won Norway's Got Talent at 8 yrs old singing Billy Holiday's 'Gloomy Sunday', 'I'm a Fool to Want You' a cappella, 'Bang, Bang' by Nancy Sinatra and 'Summertime' by George Gershwin! She fulfilled one of her childhood wishes when she sang for the Nobel Peace Prize Concert at 8, her second wish that you soon watch was to sing for that 'Simon Show" that she expressed at 3 yrs old when she sang on America's Got Talent 'The Champions' at 13 yrs old singing the most beautiful rendition of Bohemian Rhapsody ever created! She has sung for Quincy Jones & Barak Obama among many others and raised millions for Children Charities and Climate Change! No theatrics here, simply the most soulful interpretation of a song and an ability to convey that emotion right down to your very soul! She has made many grown men cry! Buckle up, you're going to need it! She is 16 as of Jan 10th this year and has just released her second original with Republic Records after being protected to allow her to grow up and when they got a deal that gave her 100 % control over her art. The true GOAT in my opinion! She was 9 when singing a song by Screamin Jay Hawkins on the candle from 1956. th-cam.com/video/nwFloCPXzCs/w-d-xo.html She started studying all the Greats of Jazz at 3yrs old on u-tube. What little girl studies Jazz at that age? The one & only Angelina Jordan, The Velvet Voice of the Barefoot princess of Jazz! I would love to see you start with one of her most recent. Her cover of 'When You Believe' by Whitney Houston and Mariah Carie. Watch the studio version first if you haven't seen it. One of her Best! Never one to show off this simple beautiful rendition shows her mindset in approaching her music. Nothing theatrical, just soft Velvet perfection! th-cam.com/video/uAlVzI8-5hQ/w-d-xo.html Also if you loved Amy Winehouse, Check out one of my favorites 'Valerie' with her having fun with her sister Juliet on Venice Beach. th-cam.com/video/sqmJLkgk2Ik/w-d-xo.html Perfect again! After that I'ld use Rusty Schackelford's Chronological playlist and jump around to those you are familiar with. th-cam.com/video/RjQZKBpVaes/w-d-xo.html You can't go wrong with anyone of them. And you can see her journey knowing her age at the time she sang it and where she was at that point in her and our journey. Another must view is 'Fly My to the Moon' on 'The View' at 8 yrs old & was my favorite among her half dozen versions because of the shear cuteness and her masterful phrasing! th-cam.com/video/nBGMQ9Kx9iI/w-d-xo.html Rusty's playlist starts with her first visit to the studio at 6yrs old!
First, and foremost; Angelina Jordan at 16 is the epitome of a Storytelling ARTIST, and she has the ability to take us by the hand and lead us down an imaginary path that we visualize as reality. The remarkable fact is that we experience this in each of her performances.
The first time I listened to this I knew it was hit material. I swear you could almost see Freddy standing in the crowd waving his halo with the crowd teary eyed at the respect and love she showed his iconic song.
Thanks for the reaction. Angelina did such a wonderful job, RIP Freddie. Her Suspicion Minds is fantastic cover. Following Angelina for two years and she has made a difference in my life, and a child shall lead them. Thanks
Cecilia, Angelina Jordan just released her cover of "Suspicious Minds" on 22 June. She's accompanied on piano by Rob Christie, 2x Grammy winner and Studio Director for Republic Records. Now 16 years old there's been an amazing amount of maturity in her voice and carrys on her unique ability for story telling in her music. There's also a live performance of "I Have Nothing" at Allsang Pa Grensen, the Norwegian Music Festival Angelina has been singing at since she was 8 years old. Both of these are stunning, the first for her amazing arrangement of Elvis Presley's 1968 performance, and the second for her incredible growth since she first sang the song for a Whitney Houston Tribute at 13 years old. The first song is on her cover channel and the other is on Allsang Pa Grensen's channel (thumbnail should show her in a flowing blue dress). Both merit your insights.
I think if Freddie had heard this he wouldn’t have been able to sing his version, he would have cried. Her version was aware of that fact, which makes both even better.
Angelina wanted to impress Simon and got the highest praise from the remaining members of the legendary Queen . Queen are enthusiastic about Angelina's arrangement. Queen shared Angelina's performance on their official Twitter account with the words "WOW, what a rendition". 💯 *AJ* 💯 BTW, Angelina released her version of Bohemian Rhapsody on January 24th, 2020 under her own record label ANGELINA JORDAN INC. 🤗🤗
Angelina is a bit different. Let me tell you what she has said about performing: During an interview, the host (Skaylan) of a Norwegian TV talk show asked Angelina if she gets nervous before performing on stage. This was Angelina’s response: “When I sing, I go to another world. The world is endless. It's like, full of happiness. I love it. It's amazing. And when I am on stage, I don't want to go [leave the stage]. [laughing]. I just want to be on stage" A snippet of Skaylan’s interview of Angelina Jordan (age 12) on Norwegian TV - November 2018 The late great French playwright and author Eugene Ionesco described his similar periods of enlightenment in the following way: “There are times when another “me” comes forward (Many videos show Angelina transforming from the actions of an age appropriate very shy girl, into the persona needed to effectively convey the feeling of a song) and presents a world which is unbounded. It is infinity itself (Angelina describes this as going to another world and that this world is “endless”). During those periods when my soul takes over, I simply witness myself effortlessly performing all my tasks” (Angelina’s singing is most often described as effortless) while I sit back in a sea of joy” (Angelina describes it as going to another world and that world is amazing and “full of happiness”)
@Jim Donaldson thanks for your comments Jim. Very enlightening and much appreciated. I'm captivated by AJ's musical talent and abilities. So happy I found her in the few years I have left.
Angelina's done so many great covers and originals. I have a playlist of about 25 of them. My 2 favorites are "Feeling Good", which you put on your favorites list, and 16-year-old Angelina singing "My Funny Valentine". You might want to look at her 5 originals too.
I've watched a ridiculous number of Angelina's renditions and have never detected a moment of uncertainty or nervous tension. How she does that is absolutely beyond me.
Great comments!!! The mix of her warm soothing voice and her dedication for performing any song makes her extremely captivating! She sings with so much love you can feel it through the screen!
Angelina is a superstar already,16years old,you find out if you continue react to her old stuff,so great,the barefoot princess of jazz,and a must watch from her earlier days is her masterclass song of unchained melody when she was only 10,11years old,you will love it
Having Eddy Murphy sing this would be interesting, glad you kept it in the video :-) You are doing awesome stuff with your channel, I hope it will bring you everything you hope for! She never suffers from nerves. In an interview she said she gets a lot of energy from the audience and when she performs she enters a happy place where everything is good. I find that very inspiring considering I have quite the case of stage fright. Recently she sang at a number of live concerts and she was visibly very happy to be there. Very interesting technical analysis wrapped together the analysis of the storyline. With Angelina I also have the impression that she is performing and telling the story while using her techniques and not showing of her very impressive vocal toolbox. She has many wonderful songs to listen to and analyse. I think you would love her recent rendition of ‘Suspicion Minds’ in which she makes you feel the sadness of distrust destroying love.
Thanks for coming back to Angelina. Appreciate your thoughtful analysis & appreciation for Angelina's masterful reinterpretation & performance of Queen's epic song. Now 16, highly recommend another incredible reinterpretation by Angelina - the Elvis classic Suspicious Minds - done in a way that only Angelina could reimagine. IMHO what differentiates Angelina from other great singers is that in addition to her beautiful voice , she also has the GOD given gift to be able to emote the essence of each song she sings direct to our hearts & souls allowing us to also deeply FEEL her music. I would be remiss if I didn't also recommend her amazing black & white performance of I Put A Spell On You (which she also arranged) at age 9. Thank you. And may GOD continue to watch over & bless Angelina Jordan.
Thanks for this beautiful analysis, Taylor. This interpretation of her is simply exceptional, beyond as for her incredible technique, for the ability she had to re-read such an iconic song in a more intimate key and for the intensity of her interpretation, at only 13 years old! This is a splendid example of Angelina's amazing and unique work, with her we are amazed by the by her voice, the breath control and splendid technique, that one does not adequately appreciate her amazing intelligence and the musical sense, through which she absorbs and transforms in her interpretations, the great songs she loves so much. 💛🧡❤️
Somehow, she connects emotionally like no other singer. The tears in the audience occur at nearly every performance. The judges on Norway has talent were fighting back tears when she was 7-8.
Angelina clearly has stellar acting skills that are very noticeable if you watch many of her videos. She can turn the act on and off like switch. She even mocks her own acting in a rehearsal video. Quite funny. She is the best.
Cecilia, I appreciate your analysis of Angelina's performance very much and also that you thought it was done very masterfully. Besides the accolades you bestowed upon her there is, however, something missing. Although she is a very humble person, when she performs her poise and confidence are on full display. I believe you did point out how comfortable she appears to be when performing. But, in the couple of times I've listened to your critiques you have never addressed her direct connection to the audience. Her voice is extremely soulful and she touches people's hearts when she sings. It's not my opinion. Thousands and thousands of people all over the world will tell you the same thing. Is it because it is something that cannot be taught you leave that aspect alone? Cecilia, when you listen to her, perhaps away from the reaction channel, do you feel the love in her voice? Her voice is extraordinary, her artistic abilities are off the chart and her ability to touch people, to actually bring tears to their eyes, elevates her to a level reserved for only a few. I know you concentrate on her music and don't stray away from that but she is a beautiful human being and it is a gigantic factor to consider when listening to her sing. You mentioned she continues to sing barefoot because she likes to be grounded. That's not an accurate statement. I know you must be very busy to read our comments (perhaps you will never see mine) but if you understood why she sings barefoot I think that would put a very different light on things. Cecilia, as incredible as this may sound but, because of who she is, when she touches our hearts we are inspired by her to be the best we can be as human being and to understand that the love in our hearts can change the world and begin to make it a better place to live.
Robert DeMartin, extraordinarily and beautifully well-said, sir! Thank you for expressing the love, respect, and admiration we all feel for Angelina as not only an amazing singer, but as an amazing, loving, empathetic human being as well! Hopefully, in time, all her YT reactors (including the ones who concentrate more on her technical skills) will come to understand her in that way as well.
I have heard so many reactions to her singing this and I think you're spot on. I have always wondered what that shift between "I don't want to die" and "Sometimes I wish I never had been born" is called technically. Even I can hear there is a very distinct and effective shift in vocal quality. You might find her original 7th Heaven interesting. Or her cover of Etta James I'd Rather Go Blind. Or literally dozens of other masterful covers by her.
Oh Cecilia! What a lovely reaction .. sensitive and wise. I want to let you know that she just spent a month in Norway and did two concerts at places she used to sing at as a young girl. There are various videos of her singing at these concerts. She had not been live on a stage with an audience since she left Norway .. except, of course, AGT and singing at Quincy Jones' birthday tribute, invited by Quincy himself. ( by the way ..The rehearsal with Quincy's orchestra was exquisite .. she is so elegant and relaxed in any situation and even for those of us who watch her sing daily, it was a joy to see and hear her so calm and totally present. They shot this rehearsal in a gymnasium in London and the orchestra was deliciously huge.) You may already know all this .. but before she left for Norway she dropped her personal version (cover) of Elvis' "Suspicious Minds". It is such a joy to see her and hear her voice as it totally comes into its own .. and each cover or original right now shows the growth and the richness of her voice really shifting and rich as can be. I could not recommend more for you to watch her "Suspicious Minds" and I would love to hear what your reaction to it will be. ALSO .. right after she came back from Norway (a little more than a week ago ..) she dropped a cover of Whitney Houston's "I Have Nothing" that is very special and again .. I would love to see and hear your reaction to it. Both would be great (yes .. I am greedy! 😊.) From a tad farther back, she did a cover of My Funny Valentine that is truly worthy even though it is a video of her wondering thru an antique shop and you hear her vocal over it. That vocal is so amazing I could barely breathe to not miss a single thing. I just realized that all three of these covers I am speaking of are so totally different but strangely enough, all 3 were shot in this antique shop, which although it is used very differently in each video .. it has definitely been used well in all 3 videos. So thank you so much for your reactions. I always enjoy hearing what you have to say. Hope to see you again soon.
Thank you Cecilia, a wonderful and insightful reaction! Please react to Suspicious Minds by Angelina. Her vocals and artistic rearrangement of the song are stunning to me. And to you?
On 27 June 2018, Jordan at the age of 12 performed "Fly Me to the Moon" and opened for Quincy Jones in The O2 Arena in London, as part of his 85th birthday celebration. It will blow you mind.
You talk about Angelina's vocal runs. The second one is pure genius, as it is an echo of Brian May's guitar riff at the same point in the original. That is my perception, but I've never been able to get anyone else to confirm that this is so.
Time for you to have a new Angelina favorite. She posted her latest music video over a week ago, and for me, it is easily her Best Performance. With the recent release of the new "Elvis" biopic, she paid tribute to him by rearranging one of his biggest hits, "Suspicious Minds" th-cam.com/video/RTbKhkceR00/w-d-xo.html Her arrangement is basically a brand new song, and it's mind-blowing how Incredible her vocal is. Be ready for a vocal blast at the beginning. Like it said, for me it's the Best thing she has ever done. I love your Angelina reactions Cecillia, and I hope you will give this one a shot. 😊😊
if you want some more videos you will be served because Angelina have just made a few concert in Norway, I was in front of her Yesterday evening, and all thoses videos are still published for a few and soon for others 😊
Love your comments not only on Angelina’s performance but on AGT. INMHO, AGT has gone really downhill, since relegating Angelina to a 5th place finish because she wouldn’t sign their standard contract, which basically would have taken all her rights away from this and tied her to a long term contract. It’s interesting, that the remaining members of Queen gave her the copyright to her version. She subsequently released it on her label as a single. She is currently performing in Norway, and this song has been in at least two of her concerts there.
She walked into that with billions of views already and AGT needed her for ratings more than she needed them. I see Republic’s assignment of Rob Christie as mentor and producer are creating solid instant classics thats truly supporting her maturation into adulthood in this all. Imagine starting your contract career on top and just starting. This is going to be a grreat decade for everyone ☺️🤩🔥
This was a spectacular performance, and really the one that launched her career in the US. It was so original and Queen gave Angelina the rights to her version for publication on digital media It was a taste of things to come! Your reaction and analysis was also stellar and goes beyond what most reactors do, but please remember to elevate your support for aspiring young artists like Angelina that you appreciate, as it will create fan loyalty. Encourage fans to like, comment, and subscribe to links you provide for BOTH you and Angelina. Equal priority for both! This includes the original video as well as the official Channel and cover Channel. Thank you for already providing the original video link. Young aspiring artists need and deserve your support for their algorithm and career. Thank you for all you do.
Cecilia, Angelina Jordan just released her cover of "Suspicious Minds" check it out. Or another one that show cases her vocals is -Angelina Jordan - I Have Nothing (Allsang på Grensen 2022). I am not one to really be obsessed with an artist, but there is something about the way she sings that just draws you in. It like after listening to her I keep humming the tune the rest of the day. I would love to see her in the studio more. She can do the concerts later, I just want to hear more songs from her. FYI-Somewhere on the internet there is a channel that put together all of the songs she has sung publicly. If I remember it was something like 132 songs.
Reacting to Dimash Qudaibergan will definitely help you reach the subscriber goal. Remembering to just shadow the more recent videos as he really wants people to go to his channel to give him the best support. He has now 3 music university degrees and studying for his PhD in Music, multi-instrumentalist crosses genres but mixes classical singing with pop singing . His parents are celebrated talented singers in their own right. He is totally dedicated to excellent singing . His level of vocal variation in-phrase tonal change in-phrase is mediatively resonant in various languages. Angelina is great. As is Diana Ankudinova. from Russia. Let's distinguish people from country if they haven't agreed with the politician. Dimash is from Kazakstan. Norway has some great singers. Another to cover is Emily Bear (MLE Bear) from the USA
*I'm shocked that you have not listened to "I put a spell on you" by Angelina. I'm sure many have recommended it. With this song, you will hear a completely different side of her and I promise your life will never be the same nor your thinking about her after hearing this song from Angelina at the mere age of 9 years old! If you closed your eyes you would never guess that it was this young 9-year-old belting out a song like that. You would think of her in her 60s. This song is mesmerizing to be sure. What can I say except she will put a spell on you once you listen to this song.* *She honors Screaming Jay Hawkin in her version.* *And yes, she wrote the song and arrangement herself!*
Hello again Cecilia! Tonight I been re-watching all of your Angelina reactions and discovered I really enjoyed them again. So now I just request another 150 or more for her. suspicious Minds will be an excellent choice and then her newest live in studio version of I Have Nothing, then her dedication to Avicii Wake Me Up age 12 and of course her live on stage from this past July outdoor concert in Norway singing Million Miles. After these just help yourself and help us Angels get our daily fix of Angelina. Thank you from Alaska.
The point is she sensibly removes the "put a gun against his head....." section. It served Mercury's sense of melodrama, but AJ is not about that, thankfully. She transforms the song into something more tasteful.
Celia, that was an extremely well done breakdown of Angelina's vocal artistry &, IMO, you were spot on. My favorite performance by her is her rendition of the jazz standard, My Funny Valentine, a song I have loved for 50 years. All the legendary jazz vocalists have recorded it (600+) in many different ways. To me, Angelina's is the best version I have ever heard & is a master class in vocal control & dynamics. It's stunningly gorgeous to my ears & I would love to hear your take on it. It was recorded on Valentines Day 2022, just after she turned 16. th-cam.com/video/ETGLbsGDAI0/w-d-xo.html
*She is not underrated. Her family purposefully kept her back to keep her as normal and grounded as possible. Her parents did not exploit their daughter as so many parents do when they have a talented kid. They turned down just about every know record company there is. Even Disney got turned down. Finally, after many years of turning people away, signed a record deal. But she of course is completely in control of what she sings and how.* *Queen, themselves love this version and praised her and posted it on their websites and Twitter account.*
NEWS! NEWS! Angelina just dropped a new cover of I have nothing studio version in black-and-white you need to check that out OMG !!!!!!!! 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊👍👍👍👍👍👍
Just saw this reaction and enjoyed it immensely , Have subscribed and look forward to more from you . Loved the intro , I’m Assuming its your singing voice . BEAUTIFUL !!!
AJ’s Christmas Show that live-streamed on Dec 23 of 22 had some of the most important musicians of our time: Frank Sinatra's drummer for 6 years, and sun in-law of the late Henry Mancini, Greg Field has won 9 Grammys, and the bass player, Chuck Berghofer who also played for Sinatra for 6 years and toured with Barbara Streisand accompanied AJ on her Christmas Show that aired Dec 23 of 21, and they stated that she had the "storytelling ability of the greats, Streisand, Fitzgerald, Vaughan, including Sinatra, to name a few. The main pianist, a five-time nominated for Grammys, Shelly Berg, stated in all his years working with the greatest vocalist, he had never encountered a talent like AJ. Did I forget to mention Jimmy Z, the famous Sax Player who worked with Rod Steward, Etta James, the Eurythmics, and Doctor Dre, was part of the band for the show? Jimmy stated that AJ was the best he has ever played for. Rob Christie Republic Records Studio Director at Universal Music Group Manhattan Beach, California played the guitar, and was the MC of the show. Rob has been working with AJ from the very 1st day Republic signed her at age 14. (I can't list the complete backgrounds on all the band members because it would take several pages to do them justice.)
In my top 5 of Angelina's is this Rihanna cover, Stay. th-cam.com/video/_GSVPvCy3Yg/w-d-xo.html she is only 12 here and, in my humble opinion, is better than the original. There are several others you will love....I put a Spell On You at age 9, Born to Die at 12, I'm Still Holding Out for You age 10 (my personal favorite), and the just released Suspicious Minds age 16.
So glad I have come across your channel! Your articulate ' respectful professional responses and personal positivity are much appreciated . Thank you for reacting to our dear girl's performance!
Big technical problem on June 22, concert. There were huge technical issues with TV2, Norway, recording this. She had to perform the whole performance again, Back-to-Back! You know better than us, what this did to her voice. Please enjoy “I Have Nothing” at Allsang på Grensen, Norway on June 22nd…LIVE 🌸 th-cam.com/video/AqtIVYFjapQ/w-d-xo.html
Hi there - you told us in the last Video female composer in Opera are underrated yet you have not reacted to Alma Deutscher from England - she is the future of Opera in my book and describes notes as coulors for her - Alma is one or the 3 big A in music - Alma rhe composer writer and Musical director next Amira Willighagen i guess you know her (if not - she won Holland got Talent at age 9 with Opera and today at age 18 is one of the World best ther) last not least Angelina Jordan geschrieben by now you know about her cheers from Germany
Amazing reaction my friend Cecilia!!...I have seen your reactions to Dimash, the best male singer of the world (In my personal opinion)...Now I want to invite you to meet, who is considered one of the Best Female Singers of the World (The best in my personal opinion)...The passion and dedication when Dimash is performing a song can only be compared with the person who has influenced him to sing leaving everything on stage: His idol, the queen, the incomparable, the Goddess: Lara Fabian.....Lara is the best female singer and performer of the world...She is a lyric soprano with a amazing vocal range and incredible breath control...She speaks and composes in 5 languages and sings in more than 15 languages....That's why she is the inspiration for Dimash and several singers around the world...You can see covers of her songs on TH-cam made by singers of the stature of: Dimash, Diana Ankudinova, Polina Gagarina, Forestella, Sissel Kyrkjebo, Floor Jansen, Diana Navarro, Giulia Falcone, Morissette Amon, Gabriel Henrique, Rimar, Katrina Velarde, Cakra Khan and others...Please react to her songs, all masterpieces, in LIVE versions, because Lara is more impressive when she sings live, so you can see why she is the idol of Dimash...Try to do it in this order and almost all songs are from the same Lara’s concert “From Lara With Love” in Montreal 1999, one of her best works: 1) Je Suis Malade (Singing in French)...2) Caruso (Singing in Italian)...3) Je T'AIME (2002 Live version in Paris Singing in French)...4) Perdere L'Amore (1999 Live version Singing in Italian)...5) Adagio (1999 Live version singing in english)...6) Broken Vow (1999 Live version singing in English)...7) You are Not From Here (1999 Live version singing in English)...8) Quédate (1999 Live version singing in Spanish)....9) Ti Amo Cosi (2019 Live version Singing a trío with Dimash and Aida Garifullina)....I hope to see you first reaction soon and if you don't mind, I'd like you to mention me as the person who recommended reacting to Lara...Here you have the link of her amazing performance of the son>g “Je Suis Malade”....th-cam.com/video/eHSyk4SGtuY/w-d-xo.html
Queen organization saw this the commander her on such a wonderful portion of the person pretty murky said I don’t care what you do with my song just don’t make it boring place it’s not boring and they gave her the right to cover at this song and her name
First time listening to this singer's reaction. I had no idea about "Opera Cecilia". I liked her reaction to Angelina Jordan. There are two young new genius singers born in the XXI century, each of an entirely different music genre. One is Angelina Jordan. The other is in classical music: Amira Willighagen. Maybe I reached another commentator who is knowledgeable in classical music (indeed there are very few on the internet). I will leave here a link to one of Amira's concerts. She sings "Amazing Grace" th-cam.com/video/XWPnzSH2OaU/w-d-xo.html
This is as far from opera as one can go: I'd Rather Go Blind by Etta James. She just turned twelve (not 13, that's a mistake) and is using the mic she received as a birthday present. It is turned backward. She cranks her vocal fry up to 11. th-cam.com/video/pK8mMXQb3_I/w-d-xo.html
Angelina is my favorite! She is the greatest!!!
Angelina took a stadium performed song and brought it into an intimate jazz club setting. Amazing. I also love you analyses.
yrs agree, classy, tasteful, authentic, never overdone, yet amazing
This is just one of many that the greatest in history would love to have under their belt! and there are some that have broken reactors! Like complete break downs with uncontrollable crying where it touches you deeply while others changed where you can see the before and after Angelina Jordan transformation and some dedicating their channel to her! and this 58 year old guy and I'm still trying to figure it out for the past 5 years! So, when I say, she has touched the hearts of man and could command an army and change the world I mean she is a “World changer” and funny thing is she just in time! We all know what’s going on and we across the pond have criminals that need to be dealt with as our responsibility and unkept promises! I don’t say this lightly. I know more than I wish so burden is what I understand and it’s her fault I feel! I hope we have the will for you we let down the world! As a friend! If nothing more, we did! Sorry for the book! I made nothing up and have no regrets!
I have experienced this performance close to 125 times, and each time I lose my breath and get chill, and I might say, this performance has been viewed over 150 million times by others that I am sure have the same experience. No storytelling signature voice has ever caused me to experience these emotions on each and every performance, and I am 75.
“Shivers down my spine”. Yeah.
I feel like I have heard this version from Angelina of this fantastic song a thousand times, but I still get shivers all over.
I was reading that she went to a waldorf school and their focus is creativity, from the time she was little and until she left that school her creativity was the focus. This is why I believe she has done so well besides the fact her grandmother is an artist and poet herself.
I missed it the 1st time but her going down on 'and face the truth' was smooth reset after the high notes
FEELIN GOOD IS MY FAV TOO
Discovering Angelina Jordan was the best thing that happened to me in 2020...!
Yeah, but then I found morissette amon.
@@JamesBond-wh3cu, a troll steps in…
@@rburkett1939 wtf u talking about.
I just discovered her 24 hours ago. I feel so blessed and happy to have found her! I have to keep my hankies handy. I cry just about every single one of her songs. She’s absolutely amazing!
Dito
And this is HER arrangement, as all of hers are.
What is my favorite artist full-time I’ve watched her since she was one and a half singing jazz she never one of my top 10 cheer child prodigy
Absolutely captivating and takes your breath away. Still my favourite Angelina performance. 😊😊😊🌏
I am often at a loss for words, when trying to describe Angelina Jordan's voice, or what genre she fits in, & I have come to accept, that she does not fit in any category, or genre, & is simply in a league of her own.....One thing I do know though, is every time I hear her voice, it touches my heart & brings out emotions, some of which, I didn't even know existed! What an amazing gift Angelina is!!! 💝
Hi sandylee,I discovered the perfect word to describe angelina. ( ETHEREAL) You are welcome, GOD BLESS.
*Love it* ❣❣❣@@jeffjeff-j6t ❣❣❣
It's my understand that queen was so impressed with Angelina that they gave her the rights to this version of the song. What I heard was rights to it on Spotify but she's singing it in concert so I would imagine her version belongs to her
You are correct! Queen allowed her the copyrights to her version because they were so impressed when they saw her perform this on AGT, and expressed their approval on their Twitter account.
Yep. I bought it on Amazon.
Then two times in her lifetime once of Norway, and this one here the champions, that’s it first upon you’ve been professional
Angelina Jordan Astar, for me she is the best singer of the last 50 years. Her voice touches my heart and cleanses my soul.
Enjoyed your reaction to AJ, thank you
Thank you!
Thats a great reactin from you. Angelina is the best storyteller ever, her voice is magic and i am so happy to be here on earth at the same time like angelina, the goddess of music and voice, such agorgeous diva ever 👑♥️🌹💫
Whenever I see Angelina live I'm always amazed at the instant connection she makes with the entire audience. Hypnotized from the first note that slips out of her mouth, and for the rest of the performance you could hear a pin drop.
She is great for sure
For me you're the best reactor of Angie in detail love your reaction thanks cecilia
Angelina did an entire accepella song when she was 7 years old on NGT with all the other contestants standing behind her watching everything she did. She had no nerves the entire song
Voice AGT all talent shows are under one international company !
AJ did not get the pitch
When you react to Bohemian Rhapsody take notice during her performance they highlight audience members in the front row. That is Angelina's Family. From left to right Her uncle and manager Michael Astar, her little sister Juliette, her mother Sarah Astar and her grandmother Mery Zamani. Notice her little sister crossing her fingers as the performance starts and later her mother wipe tears from her eyes. Also remember she said she had waited 10 years to sing for Simon. When she was 3 years old she was begging her mother to go on 'that Simon show'. A child prodigy who started singing Whitney Houston at 1 & 1/2, Won Norway's Got Talent at 8 yrs old singing Billy Holiday's 'Gloomy Sunday', 'I'm a Fool to Want You' a cappella, 'Bang, Bang' by Nancy Sinatra and 'Summertime' by George Gershwin! She fulfilled one of her childhood wishes when she sang for the Nobel Peace Prize Concert at 8, her second wish that you soon watch was to sing for that 'Simon Show" that she expressed at 3 yrs old when she sang on America's Got Talent 'The Champions' at 13 yrs old singing the most beautiful rendition of Bohemian Rhapsody ever created! She has sung for Quincy Jones & Barak Obama among many others and raised millions for Children Charities and Climate Change! No theatrics here, simply the most soulful interpretation of a song and an ability to convey that emotion right down to your very soul! She has made many grown men cry! Buckle up, you're going to need it! She is 16 as of Jan 10th this year and has just released her second original with Republic Records after being protected to allow her to grow up and when they got a deal that gave her 100 % control over her art. The true GOAT in my opinion! She was 9 when singing a song by Screamin Jay Hawkins on the candle from 1956. th-cam.com/video/nwFloCPXzCs/w-d-xo.html She started studying all the Greats of Jazz at 3yrs old on u-tube. What little girl studies Jazz at that age? The one & only Angelina Jordan, The Velvet Voice of the Barefoot princess of Jazz! I would love to see you start with one of her most recent. Her cover of 'When You Believe' by Whitney Houston and Mariah Carie. Watch the studio version first if you haven't seen it. One of her Best! Never one to show off this simple beautiful rendition shows her mindset in approaching her music. Nothing theatrical, just soft Velvet perfection! th-cam.com/video/uAlVzI8-5hQ/w-d-xo.html Also if you loved Amy Winehouse, Check out one of my favorites 'Valerie' with her having fun with her sister Juliet on Venice Beach. th-cam.com/video/sqmJLkgk2Ik/w-d-xo.html Perfect again! After that I'ld use Rusty Schackelford's Chronological playlist and jump around to those you are familiar with. th-cam.com/video/RjQZKBpVaes/w-d-xo.html You can't go wrong with anyone of them. And you can see her journey knowing her age at the time she sang it and where she was at that point in her and our journey. Another must view is 'Fly My to the Moon' on 'The View' at 8 yrs old & was my favorite among her half dozen versions because of the shear cuteness and her masterful phrasing! th-cam.com/video/nBGMQ9Kx9iI/w-d-xo.html Rusty's playlist starts with her first visit to the studio at 6yrs old!
First, and foremost; Angelina Jordan at 16 is the epitome of a Storytelling ARTIST, and she has the ability to take us by the hand and lead us down an imaginary path that we visualize as reality. The remarkable fact is that we experience this in each of her performances.
Angelina touches my soul every time she sings. Some of her songs bring me to tears so much emotion in her singing.
The first time I listened to this I knew it was hit material. I swear you could almost see Freddy standing in the crowd waving his halo with the crowd teary eyed at the respect and love she showed his iconic song.
Did you know that Angelina plays the piano, flute, guitar, and violin and also paints
That’s really cool! I love when artists express themselves through different mediums!
Thanks for the reaction. Angelina did such a wonderful job, RIP Freddie. Her Suspicion Minds is fantastic cover. Following Angelina for two years and she has made a difference in my life, and a child shall lead them. Thanks
Cecilia, Angelina Jordan just released her cover of "Suspicious Minds" on 22 June. She's accompanied on piano by Rob Christie, 2x Grammy winner and Studio Director for Republic Records. Now 16 years old there's been an amazing amount of maturity in her voice and carrys on her unique ability for story telling in her music. There's also a live performance of "I Have Nothing" at Allsang Pa Grensen, the Norwegian Music Festival Angelina has been singing at since she was 8 years old. Both of these are stunning, the first for her amazing arrangement of Elvis Presley's 1968 performance, and the second for her incredible growth since she first sang the song for a Whitney Houston Tribute at 13 years old.
The first song is on her cover channel and the other is on Allsang Pa Grensen's channel (thumbnail should show her in a flowing blue dress). Both merit your insights.
Suspicious Minds

I Have Nothing

I think if Freddie had heard this he wouldn’t have been able to sing his version, he would have cried. Her version was aware of that fact, which makes both even better.
The girl is just the best :)
Angelina wanted to impress Simon and got the highest praise from the remaining members of the legendary Queen . Queen are enthusiastic about Angelina's arrangement. Queen shared Angelina's performance on their official Twitter account with the words "WOW, what a rendition". 💯 *AJ* 💯 BTW, Angelina released her version of Bohemian Rhapsody on January 24th, 2020 under her own record label ANGELINA JORDAN INC. 🤗🤗
Finally a great reaction!
I am so grateful to see trained women reacting to Angelina Jordan. Thank you. I love watching Angelina's evolving artistry.
Angelina is a bit different. Let me tell you what she has said about performing:
During an interview, the host (Skaylan) of a Norwegian TV talk show asked Angelina if she gets nervous before performing on stage. This was Angelina’s response:
“When I sing, I go to another world. The world is endless. It's like, full of happiness. I love it. It's amazing. And when I am on stage, I don't want to go [leave the stage]. [laughing]. I just want to be on stage"
A snippet of Skaylan’s interview of Angelina Jordan (age 12) on Norwegian TV - November 2018
The late great French playwright and author Eugene Ionesco described his similar periods of enlightenment in the following way: “There are times when another “me” comes forward (Many videos show Angelina transforming from the actions of an age appropriate very shy girl, into the persona needed to effectively convey the feeling of a song) and presents a world which is unbounded. It is infinity itself (Angelina describes this as going to another world and that this world is “endless”). During those periods when my soul takes over, I simply witness myself effortlessly performing all my tasks” (Angelina’s singing is most often described as effortless) while I sit back in a sea of joy” (Angelina describes it as going to another world and that world is amazing and “full of happiness”)
Wow! Great comparison with the French playwright!
@Jim Donaldson thanks for your comments Jim. Very enlightening and much appreciated. I'm captivated by AJ's musical talent and abilities. So happy I found her in the few years I have left.
The most mesmerizing performance I have ever seen on a talent show ❤️
master performance .
Angelina 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
What a One in a Million she truly is, absolutely stunning artist. Lovely in-depth reaction.
Angelina's done so many great covers and originals. I have a playlist of about 25 of them. My 2 favorites are "Feeling Good", which you put on your favorites list, and 16-year-old Angelina singing "My Funny Valentine". You might want to look at her 5 originals too.
I've watched a ridiculous number of Angelina's renditions and have never detected a moment of uncertainty or nervous tension. How she does that is absolutely beyond me.
Great comments!!! The mix of her warm soothing voice and her dedication for performing any song makes her extremely captivating! She sings with so much love you can feel it through the screen!
Love to hear your reaction to AJ in her 2022 concert.
Angelina is a superstar already,16years old,you find out if you continue react to her old stuff,so great,the barefoot princess of jazz,and a must watch from her earlier days is her masterclass song of unchained melody when she was only 10,11years old,you will love it
I must say you do a great job and have a great singing voice. I love all genres.
Thank you!
Having Eddy Murphy sing this would be interesting, glad you kept it in the video :-) You are doing awesome stuff with your channel, I hope it will bring you everything you hope for!
She never suffers from nerves. In an interview she said she gets a lot of energy from the audience and when she performs she enters a happy place where everything is good. I find that very inspiring considering I have quite the case of stage fright. Recently she sang at a number of live concerts and she was visibly very happy to be there.
Very interesting technical analysis wrapped together the analysis of the storyline. With Angelina I also have the impression that she is performing and telling the story while using her techniques and not showing of her very impressive vocal toolbox.
She has many wonderful songs to listen to and analyse. I think you would love her recent rendition of ‘Suspicion Minds’ in which she makes you feel the sadness of distrust destroying love.
Thanks for coming back to Angelina. Appreciate your thoughtful analysis & appreciation for Angelina's masterful reinterpretation & performance of Queen's epic song. Now 16, highly recommend another incredible reinterpretation by Angelina - the Elvis classic Suspicious Minds - done in a way that only Angelina could reimagine. IMHO what differentiates Angelina from other great singers is that in addition to her beautiful voice , she also has the GOD given gift to be able to emote the essence of each song she sings direct to our hearts & souls allowing us to also deeply FEEL her music. I would be remiss if I didn't also recommend her amazing black & white performance of I Put A Spell On You (which she also arranged) at age 9. Thank you. And may GOD continue to watch over & bless Angelina Jordan.
So more everyday looking forward to Album and single like all of us can’t wa Frances from Scotlandxx
Wait till the end to speak on reactions.
Thanks for this beautiful analysis, Taylor. This interpretation of her is simply exceptional, beyond as for her incredible technique, for the ability she had to re-read such an iconic song in a more intimate key and for the intensity of her interpretation, at only 13 years old! This is a splendid example of Angelina's amazing and unique work, with her we are amazed by the by her voice, the breath control and splendid technique, that one does not adequately appreciate her amazing intelligence and the musical sense, through which she absorbs and transforms in her interpretations, the great songs she loves so much. 💛🧡❤️
Somehow, she connects emotionally like no other singer. The tears in the audience occur at nearly every performance. The judges on Norway has talent were fighting back tears when she was 7-8.
Angelina clearly has stellar acting skills that are very noticeable if you watch many of her videos. She can turn the act on and off like switch. She even mocks her own acting in a rehearsal video. Quite funny. She is the best.
Listen to her sing this at least least 100 time a still. Enjoy it ,thanks for your reaction
Cecilia, I appreciate your analysis of Angelina's performance very much and also that you thought it was done very masterfully. Besides the accolades you bestowed upon her there is, however, something missing. Although she is a very humble person, when she performs her poise and confidence are on full display. I believe you did point out how comfortable she appears to be when performing. But, in the couple of times I've listened to your critiques you have never addressed her direct connection to the audience. Her voice is extremely soulful and she touches people's hearts when she sings. It's not my opinion. Thousands and thousands of people all over the world will tell you the same thing. Is it because it is something that cannot be taught you leave that aspect alone? Cecilia, when you listen to her, perhaps away from the reaction channel, do you feel the love in her voice? Her voice is extraordinary, her artistic abilities are off the chart and her ability to touch people, to actually bring tears to their eyes, elevates her to a level reserved for only a few.
I know you concentrate on her music and don't stray away from that but she is a beautiful human being and it is a gigantic factor to consider when listening to her sing. You mentioned she continues to sing barefoot because she likes to be grounded. That's not an accurate statement. I know you must be very busy to read our comments (perhaps you will never see mine) but if you understood why she sings barefoot I think that would put a very different light on things.
Cecilia, as incredible as this may sound but, because of who she is, when she touches our hearts we are inspired by her to be the best we can be as human being and to understand that the love in our hearts can change the world and begin to make it a better place to live.
Robert DeMartin, extraordinarily and beautifully well-said, sir! Thank you for expressing the love, respect, and admiration we all feel for Angelina as not only an amazing singer, but as an amazing, loving, empathetic human being as well! Hopefully, in time, all her YT reactors (including the ones who concentrate more on her technical skills) will come to understand her in that way as well.
That was an awesome comment, so true you are the princess is by far the most heartfelt of all.
I have heard so many reactions to her singing this and I think you're spot on. I have always wondered what that shift between "I don't want to die" and "Sometimes I wish I never had been born" is called technically. Even I can hear there is a very distinct and effective shift in vocal quality. You might find her original 7th Heaven interesting. Or her cover of Etta James I'd Rather Go Blind. Or literally dozens of other masterful covers by her.
Oh Cecilia! What a lovely reaction .. sensitive and wise.
I want to let you know that she just spent a month in Norway and did two concerts at places she used to sing at as a young girl. There are various videos of her singing at these concerts. She had not been live on a stage with an audience since she left Norway .. except, of course, AGT and singing at Quincy Jones' birthday tribute, invited by Quincy himself. ( by the way ..The rehearsal with Quincy's orchestra was exquisite .. she is so elegant and relaxed in any situation and even for those of us who watch her sing daily, it was a joy to see and hear her so calm and totally present. They shot this rehearsal in a gymnasium in London and the orchestra was deliciously huge.)
You may already know all this .. but before she left for Norway she dropped her personal version (cover) of Elvis' "Suspicious Minds". It is such a joy to see her and hear her voice as it totally comes into its own .. and each cover or original right now shows the growth and the richness of her voice really shifting and rich as can be.
I could not recommend more for you to watch her "Suspicious Minds" and I would love to hear what your reaction to it will be.
ALSO .. right after she came back from Norway (a little more than a week ago ..) she dropped a cover of Whitney Houston's "I Have Nothing" that is very special and again .. I would love to see and hear your reaction to it.
Both would be great (yes .. I am greedy! 😊.)
From a tad farther back, she did a cover of My Funny Valentine that is truly worthy even though it is a video of her wondering thru an antique shop and you hear her vocal over it. That vocal is so amazing I could barely breathe to not miss a single thing.
I just realized that all three of these covers I am speaking of are so totally different but strangely enough, all 3 were shot in this antique shop, which although it is used very differently in each video .. it has definitely been used well in all 3 videos.
So thank you so much for your reactions. I always enjoy hearing what you have to say.
Hope to see you again soon.
I have listened to “suspicious minds” it’s really good!
At 7 she was killing us, at 16 she is taking us places we have never been.
Thank you Cecilia, a wonderful and insightful reaction! Please react to Suspicious Minds by Angelina. Her vocals and artistic rearrangement of the song are stunning to me. And to you?
Take me to the moon.
LOVE that song
On 27 June 2018, Jordan at the age of 12 performed "Fly Me to the Moon" and opened for Quincy Jones in The O2 Arena in London, as part of his 85th birthday celebration. It will blow you mind.
You talk about Angelina's vocal runs. The second one is pure genius, as it is an echo of Brian May's guitar riff at the same point in the original. That is my perception, but I've never been able to get anyone else to confirm that this is so.
Amazing reaction to a stunning masterpiece.....
Time for you to have a new Angelina favorite. She posted her latest music video over a week ago, and for me, it is easily her Best Performance. With the recent release of the new "Elvis" biopic, she paid tribute to him by rearranging one of his biggest hits, "Suspicious Minds" th-cam.com/video/RTbKhkceR00/w-d-xo.html Her arrangement is basically a brand new song, and it's mind-blowing how Incredible her vocal is. Be ready for a vocal blast at the beginning. Like it said, for me it's the Best thing she has ever done. I love your Angelina reactions Cecillia, and I hope you will give this one a shot. 😊😊
i cant believe you havent seen this....AJ wins the golden buzzer
Спасибо за Ваш обзор!
if you want some more videos you will be served because Angelina have just made a few concert in Norway, I was in front of her Yesterday evening, and all thoses videos are still published for a few and soon for others 😊
Love your comments not only on Angelina’s performance but on AGT. INMHO, AGT has gone really downhill, since relegating Angelina to a 5th place finish because she wouldn’t sign their standard contract, which basically would have taken all her rights away from this and tied her to a long term contract.
It’s interesting, that the remaining members of Queen gave her the copyright to her version. She subsequently released it on her label as a single. She is currently performing in Norway, and this song has been in at least two of her concerts there.
She walked into that with billions of views already and AGT needed her for ratings more than she needed them. I see Republic’s assignment of Rob Christie as mentor and producer are creating solid instant classics thats truly supporting her maturation into adulthood in this all. Imagine starting your contract career on top and just starting. This is going to be a grreat decade for everyone ☺️🤩🔥
This is true.
Comment for the algorithm. Well done.
This was a spectacular performance, and really the one that launched her career in the US. It was so original and Queen gave Angelina the rights to her version for publication on digital media It was a taste of things to come! Your reaction and analysis was also stellar and goes beyond what most reactors do, but please remember to elevate your support for aspiring young artists like Angelina that you appreciate, as it will create fan loyalty. Encourage fans to like, comment, and subscribe to links you provide for BOTH you and Angelina. Equal priority for both! This includes the original video as well as the official Channel and cover Channel. Thank you for already providing the original video link. Young aspiring artists need and deserve your support for their algorithm and career. Thank you for all you do.
Cecilia, Angelina Jordan just released her cover of "Suspicious Minds" check it out. Or another one that show cases her vocals is -Angelina Jordan - I Have Nothing (Allsang på Grensen 2022). I am not one to really be obsessed with an artist, but there is something about the way she sings that just draws you in. It like after listening to her I keep humming the tune the rest of the day. I would love to see her in the studio more. She can do the concerts later, I just want to hear more songs from her. FYI-Somewhere on the internet there is a channel that put together all of the songs she has sung publicly. If I remember it was something like 132 songs.
Reacting to Dimash Qudaibergan will definitely help you reach the subscriber goal. Remembering to just shadow the more recent videos as he really wants people to go to his channel to give him the best support. He has now 3 music university degrees and studying for his PhD in Music, multi-instrumentalist crosses genres but mixes classical singing with pop singing . His parents are celebrated talented singers in their own right. He is totally dedicated to excellent singing . His level of vocal variation in-phrase tonal change in-phrase is mediatively resonant in various languages. Angelina is great. As is Diana Ankudinova. from Russia. Let's distinguish people from country if they haven't agreed with the politician. Dimash is from Kazakstan. Norway has some great singers. Another to cover is Emily Bear (MLE Bear) from the USA
*I'm shocked that you have not listened to "I put a spell on you" by Angelina. I'm sure many have recommended it. With this song, you will hear a completely different side of her and I promise your life will never be the same nor your thinking about her after hearing this song from Angelina at the mere age of 9 years old! If you closed your eyes you would never guess that it was this young 9-year-old belting out a song like that. You would think of her in her 60s. This song is mesmerizing to be sure. What can I say except she will put a spell on you once you listen to this song.* *She honors Screaming Jay Hawkin in her version.* *And yes, she wrote the song and arrangement herself!*
Hello again Cecilia! Tonight I been re-watching all of your Angelina reactions and discovered I really enjoyed them again. So now I just request another 150 or more for her. suspicious Minds will be an excellent choice and then her newest live in studio version of I Have Nothing, then her dedication to Avicii Wake Me Up age 12 and of course her live on stage from this past July outdoor concert in Norway singing Million Miles.
After these just help yourself and help us Angels get our daily fix of Angelina. Thank you from Alaska.
The point is she sensibly removes the "put a gun against his head....." section. It served Mercury's sense of melodrama, but AJ is not about that, thankfully. She transforms the song into something more tasteful.
Yes, absolutely more tasteful!
Celia, that was an extremely well done breakdown of Angelina's vocal artistry &, IMO, you were spot on. My favorite performance by her is her rendition of the jazz standard, My Funny Valentine, a song I have loved for 50 years. All the legendary jazz vocalists have recorded it (600+) in many different ways. To me, Angelina's is the best version I have ever heard & is a master class in vocal control & dynamics. It's stunningly gorgeous to my ears & I would love to hear your take on it. It was recorded on Valentines Day 2022, just after she turned 16. th-cam.com/video/ETGLbsGDAI0/w-d-xo.html
I agree with My Funny Valentine and also offer her new arraignment of Suspicious Minds
@@ronjones1077 I second both suggestions!
@@ronjones1077 Yes, Ron, Suspicious Minds is my next favorite, but I didn't want to request 2 songs from Celia.
Fantastic just
Love thisSh gets better all the timeFrances from Scotland.
*She is not underrated. Her family purposefully kept her back to keep her as normal and grounded as possible. Her parents did not exploit their daughter as so many parents do when they have a talented kid. They turned down just about every know record company there is. Even Disney got turned down. Finally, after many years of turning people away, signed a record deal. But she of course is completely in control of what she sings and how.* *Queen, themselves love this version and praised her and posted it on their websites and Twitter account.*
NEWS! NEWS! Angelina just dropped a new cover of I have nothing studio version in black-and-white you need to check that out OMG !!!!!!!! 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks for the suggestion, I’ll check it out!
Just saw this reaction and enjoyed it immensely , Have subscribed and look forward to more from you . Loved the intro , I’m Assuming its your singing voice . BEAUTIFUL !!!
Please tell us what the beautiful well known aria opens the show is...
AJ’s Christmas Show that live-streamed on Dec 23 of 22 had some of the most important musicians of our time: Frank Sinatra's drummer for 6 years, and sun in-law of the late Henry Mancini, Greg Field has won 9 Grammys, and the bass player, Chuck Berghofer who also played for Sinatra for 6 years and toured with Barbara Streisand accompanied AJ on her Christmas Show that aired Dec 23 of 21, and they stated that she had the "storytelling ability of the greats, Streisand, Fitzgerald, Vaughan, including Sinatra, to name a few. The main pianist, a five-time nominated for Grammys, Shelly Berg, stated in all his years working with the greatest vocalist, he had never encountered a talent like AJ. Did I forget to mention Jimmy Z, the famous Sax Player who worked with Rod Steward, Etta James, the Eurythmics, and Doctor Dre, was part of the band for the show? Jimmy stated that AJ was the best he has ever played for. Rob Christie Republic Records Studio Director at Universal Music Group Manhattan Beach, California played the guitar, and was the MC of the show. Rob has been working with AJ from the very 1st day Republic signed her at age 14. (I can't list the complete backgrounds on all the band members because it would take several pages to do them justice.)
In my top 5 of Angelina's is this Rihanna cover, Stay. th-cam.com/video/_GSVPvCy3Yg/w-d-xo.html she is only 12 here and, in my humble opinion, is better than the original. There are several others you will love....I put a Spell On You at age 9, Born to Die at 12, I'm Still Holding Out for You age 10 (my personal favorite), and the just released Suspicious Minds age 16.
So glad I have come across your channel! Your articulate ' respectful professional responses and personal positivity are much appreciated . Thank you for reacting to our dear girl's performance!
Thank you!
love your insight.
Please listen can't help falling in love by Diana Ankudinova she is amazing and beautiful young lady with a contralto voice
She was not given a pitch, look at her rendition in Norway of this song, no pitch. Amazing...!!!
Big technical problem on June 22, concert. There were huge technical issues with TV2, Norway, recording this. She had to perform the whole performance again, Back-to-Back! You know better than us, what this did to her voice. Please enjoy “I Have Nothing” at Allsang på Grensen, Norway on June 22nd…LIVE 🌸

🎉🎉
just for my own musical education... I'd like to be sent to a superior performance. Recommendations?
Adam Lambert, the singer for Queen now
Excellent reaction, check her recent release of "Suspicious Minds", video is mind blowing, God Bless!
Amazing reaction my friend Cecilia!!...I have seen your reactions to Dimash, the best male singer of the world (In my personal opinion)...Now I want to invite you to meet, who is considered one of the Best Female Singers of the World (The best in my personal opinion)...The passion and dedication when Dimash is performing a song can only be compared with the person who has influenced him to sing leaving everything on stage: His idol, the queen, the incomparable, the Goddess: Lara Fabian.....Lara is the best female singer and performer of the world...She is a lyric soprano with a amazing vocal range and incredible breath control...She speaks and composes in 5 languages and sings in more than 15 languages....That's why she is the inspiration for Dimash and several singers around the world...You can see covers of her songs on TH-cam made by singers of the stature of: Dimash, Diana Ankudinova, Polina Gagarina, Forestella, Sissel Kyrkjebo, Floor Jansen, Diana Navarro, Giulia Falcone, Morissette Amon, Gabriel Henrique, Rimar, Katrina Velarde, Cakra Khan and others...Please react to her songs, all masterpieces, in LIVE versions, because Lara is more impressive when she sings live, so you can see why she is the idol of Dimash...Try to do it in this order and almost all songs are from the same Lara’s concert “From Lara With Love” in Montreal 1999, one of her best works: 1) Je Suis Malade (Singing in French)...2) Caruso (Singing in Italian)...3) Je T'AIME (2002 Live version in Paris Singing in French)...4) Perdere L'Amore (1999 Live version Singing in Italian)...5) Adagio (1999 Live version singing in english)...6) Broken Vow (1999 Live version singing in English)...7) You are Not From Here (1999 Live version singing in English)...8) Quédate (1999 Live version singing in Spanish)....9) Ti Amo Cosi (2019 Live version Singing a trío with Dimash and Aida Garifullina)....I hope to see you first reaction soon and if you don't mind, I'd like you to mention me as the person who recommended reacting to Lara...Here you have the link of her amazing performance of the son>g “Je Suis Malade”....th-cam.com/video/eHSyk4SGtuY/w-d-xo.html
Queen organization saw this the commander her on such a wonderful portion of the person pretty murky said I don’t care what you do with my song just don’t make it boring place it’s not boring and they gave her the right to cover at this song and her name
First time listening to this singer's reaction. I had no idea about "Opera Cecilia". I liked her reaction to Angelina Jordan. There are two young new genius singers born in the XXI century, each of an entirely different music genre. One is Angelina Jordan. The other is in classical music: Amira Willighagen. Maybe I reached another commentator who is knowledgeable in classical music (indeed there are very few on the internet). I will leave here a link to one of Amira's concerts. She sings "Amazing Grace"

the original members of Queen heard Angelina's version and gave her the right to copyright her version.
This is as far from opera as one can go: I'd Rather Go Blind by Etta James. She just turned twelve (not 13, that's a mistake) and is using the mic she received as a birthday present. It is turned backward. She cranks her vocal fry up to 11. th-cam.com/video/pK8mMXQb3_I/w-d-xo.html
