Coming back to this because I am an Aretha fan. And Miss AJ comes very very dangerously close to such perfection. Incomprehensible talent. I can only imagine a duet of this epic tune.
Just listened to both Angelina’s and Ariana Grande’s version of this song. Whilst Ariana’s version is similar in style to Aretha’s and she is without doubt a world class singer, I have to say Angelina’s version is so much more emotive, personal and communicative! Ariana’s leaves you respecting her vocal skill and you are definitely entertained….. but I didn’t feel anything! When Angelina sings (anything), feeling is the first reaction you get, this is where she is so absolutely amazing, she communicates with us the listeners so well with her voice, it’s honest, modest, personal and totally comforting and takes her performance to another level. Ariana is a great singer, Angelina is an unbelievable artist, and therein lies all the difference in the world! Ariana will have fans, but Angelina will have followers! Angelina is going to be remembered as the greatest female vocalist in history of that I am certain, and she hasn’t even got going yet! I also think she will be credited with bringing jazz back into fashion single handedly, what a legacy, what an honour!
Você traduziu todo meu sentimento neste comentário; tenho a acrescentar que não conhecia essa música, ouvi hoje 02/09/23, fiquei boquiaberta; choro toda vez que ouço a melhor cantora de todas, desde quando ela se apresentou com a versão de Billie Holiday, Gloomy Sunday, Angelina!
Best woman singers ever begin with the letter A , Aretha Franklin and Angelina Jordan! Then again Angelina is not a women yet which is quite extraordinary !
Angelina has the ability to arrange a song to fit how she is feeling. No doubt she was feeling sad over the passing of Aretha Franklin and wanted to honor her life with this incredibly moving tribute.
Only Angelina can sing a Aretha Franklin classic, in her soft soulful voice . What a beautiful tribute and respect Angelina has shown to "A Natural Woman", Aretha Franklin.
What A Fantastic Soulful Rendition as a Tribute To Aretha Franklin and this artist Will Be the Greatest artist in The World and these Artists only come along once in a 100 years. !!!!!! or even longer and I have had The Privilege of being Around to Be Here and see Her grow up in my Short years of 75 years and seen the original artists in the late 40s & 50s. Brilliant out of this world and hoping to see her when she is a Super Star Being Born. Fingers Crossed Chris Tredwell Birmingham UK Bow Bow Bow Bow
I've spent the past few hours at the end of my week listening to your voice. I love your ability to sing the soul of any piece of music, and to interprete lyrics in a way that brings their meaning to life. What a gift. What a treat for my ears and my heart ♡ Thank you, Angelina. Blessings always.
A sober and respectful tribute posted 3 days after the death of Aretha Franklin (August 16, 2018) by a 12-years-old girl who loved and respected her. She didn't try to emulate her. It wouldn't have been appropriate in the circumstances. She just made a sensitive version of one of her greatest hit. The abrupt fade away and silence at the end of the video was also a nice touch.
This is a beautiful tribute Angelina to the brilliant singer Aretha Franklin she would have loved to hear you sing this you did her proud love ❤️ you sweetheart ❤️from Denise in England 🏴🏴🏴💖👼👼💕😘👋byeXX
There are definitely angelz among us! I just stumbled upon Angelina Jordan this morning and her voice captivated me one time. Her range of sounds in this one song had me in tears - absolutely beautiful Angelina! Thank you for sprinkling your gift of sound upon the world...
She has the uncanny ability to make you F E E L the music. This is what makes every song she interprets to be her own creation. They feel new again when Angelina sing them.
This is not only the most beautiful rendition of this Carol King song, it is one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard. It is the first time I actually heard every word but understood the depth of meaning and emotion of this song. Angelina shows how talented a songwriter Carol King actually is. I hope she someday performs the song in its entirely. Let's call Angelina the Midas singer who turns everything she sings into gold.
I don’t watch tv and had never heard of this young lady until TH-cam recommended one of her videos a short while ago. I am stunned a youngsters voice can get so many emotions to bubble up to the surface. What an incredible talent.
Wow! I just noticed this was posted in Aug. 2018. She was TWELVE YEARS OLD!!! She's definitely a Ray of Light sent to dispel the darkness. Here's wishing you everything you'd wish for your Highest Good, Angelina.
I can't find the words to express how I feel when I listen to Angelina Jordan it's almost as if she is reaching inside my soul with every syllable. I just love her
This blows my mind, not because of her vocals, but because of her understanding of music, her way of interpretation at the age of 12?! The tranquility and simplicity of the song showcase the 'tiredness' at first, and later the happiness of being accepted as a 'natural woman', which is expressed in this song. I can fully feel the meaning behind the lyrics when Angelina sings, this is what amazes me, especially in this one.
yes Angelina! Aretha is so proud of you right now! you loved her so much and what a wonderful way to thank her as she lives on now from a much more beautiful place, but ohhh dont you worry your grandpa and Aretha are cheering you with every single goose bump you deliver. thank you and god bless you and that blissful voice of yours.
I love the fact that she shows that someone doesn't need to scream and shout the high notes to prove their talent and give you the sentiment and the chills. I ' m tired of all these wannabe singers who scream horribly trying to sound great and all those people who are getting excited with the awful screaming thinking that's it....!!!
He comes up here with another very soul and ear pleasing unique arrangement, and her soft vocal tone is perfectly appropriate considering the intimacy suggested by the lyrics. Boy, and she is 12 years old here.
@@DynamicMateTV Are you trying to say that Aretha Franklin's original version makes you seek to your stomach? It has the passion a more mature woman would naturally bring into the mix.
@@sorellman im trying to say that Angelina is beautiful and inside out ;) And she makes every (most of the) songs she turns down the awful yelling and stuff to a minimum where you can really feel and imagine! Sorry if Im not making any sense - just love Angelina too much 🤷♂️
I have to believe that the "You" in this performance is Aretha. AJ, I think the Queen of Soul would have hugged you. As you sing elsewhere, you are not alone and Aretha is among them.
Having made this tribute just days after Aretha's death, I always thought the peaceful, respectful delivery she gave here was absolute perfection. ...but on top of that, I just realized that the end of this video is an intentional 'fade to black' and a moment of silence. This girl is a genius on a level I can't even comprehend.
The fade to black was obviously intentional and an act of brilliance and reverence. Also genius is the fact that she perfected the original Carole King version rather than try to "best" Aretha Franklin's version. Shows great taste artistically …. and once again it's a song better than the original!
@OTIS SPENCER - ALL I SEE IS A GIRL WHO LOVES ALL KINDS OF MUSIC, DOING HER THING, AND SINGING SONGS, AND SHARING HER GIFT WITH THE WORLD, AND NOT ASKING FOR A DIME IN RETURN YET, AS SHE LEARNS AND GROWS ........ SHE WILL BE A MILLIONAIRE SOON ENOUGH, BUT SO FAR I SEE ZERO "MARKETING"......... THE TIME WILL COME LATER FOR ALL THAT WHEN SHE IS ENTITLED TO LIVE WELL FOR WORKING HARD TO GIVE SO MUCH TO THE WORLD !!!
😁.slayed it!! .. About 2hours ago whilst looking for sleeping music, I stumbled across this young lady, 1) I'm just stunned shocked and blown away. I'm a fan of music from the 40's-to some of today. Her influencers are identifiable, and homage has been paid 10 fold . KNOCKS IT OUT OF THE PARK! Each and every time !! Impressive, please keep making good music! 2).. you are not good for sleep music. 🤷🏻♂️😁
A song ideally for sleeping would be 'summertime', the original, because it's originally a lullaby. Angelina performed it with the Norwegian Radio Orchestra: th-cam.com/video/stwF4ti1tbc/w-d-xo.html
Love you Angelina! I listen to your music just about every day now. Love the song "Million Miles" -- what a beautiful remembrance in honor of your Grandfather. You are beautiful artist.
I can't even begin to describe... the words needed to descibe her hasn't been invented by mankind yet and have never been uttered by any tongue. if you wanted me - a life long atheist to be religious it would be by telling me this is Jesus reborn as a young woman come to save us once more and give us one more chance through music. She is beyond what science can explain. She is gonna be more famous than Elvis Presley, Beatles, Ghandi and Albert Einstein combined. She disproves einsteins theories simply by singing she can stop time take us 80 years back and back to the future with the speed of sound. She is gonna make you believe in unicorns and eveything music she touches becomes pure magic. We need a new way to calculate and count our years with year 0 starting when that girl sang for the first time. We are not worthy and will be forever grateful for every song she will sing for us. She is freakishly divine. She is music incarnated, she is divine grace and unearthly beauty when she sings. She could sing world peace if we could just make everybody listen at the same time. She could possibly be the meaning with life. She proves there is still hope for humankind. I humbly apologize for not having more accurate words to describe Angelina Jordan. for you
To be reminded of what a truly authentic, uncompromising, intuitive, creative soul can create when she is allowed to fully express her god given talent is a thought and a feeling so inspiring that it can brighten any darkened day.
Angelina Jordan most definitely makes me happy with her music(love) 💝💝💝
The AJ rabbit hole is full of fantasy & treasure.
Coming back to this because I am an Aretha fan. And Miss AJ comes very very dangerously close to such perfection. Incomprehensible talent. I can only imagine a duet of this epic tune.
She is sweet and quiet because she loves Aretha

I think you could've put it shorter: Angelina is the only one who sings "a natural woman" like a natural woman. 😄
So well said my friend 🙂

She met Aretha three days before when she passed away from Earth and said goodbye 🫂👋
I never comment anything on TH-cam but I wanted to say thank you. Thank you Angelina Jordan for helping me through rough times.
Angelina you make all who listen to you feel alive. We thank God for you.
Oh my God 🤦🏼♀️fantastic Angelina 😇👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Way way better than any screaming style I have seen before, the best of the best and she is just a teen or preteen
Angelina Jordan is the most versatile singer in the world today and I can't wait for her World Tour 👍👍💟💟🙂🙂
Thank you Angelina - absolutely beautiful. ❤
I love Aretha - greetings from Detroit .
Angelina exposes the lyrics so well!
She is natural singer like so perfected
The girl is just the best now and I'm thinking ever.
Best woman singers ever begin with the letter A , Aretha Franklin and Angelina Jordan! Then again Angelina is not a women yet which is quite extraordinary !

Amazing tribute. Miss Aretha Franklin would be proud.👍
simply love this, thanks Angelina

Every time I listen to this beautiful soul my heart and soul shiver! Such a sound from a young soul is a god/Mother Nature given gift! Love her sound!
Angelina is the key to my peace of mind.

My favorite for that is You Don't Own Me. I go to bed with her wonderful smile, in peace with the world.
A glass of wine, the fireplace going, and Angelina singing. It doesn't get any better than that.
How about you add in a deep dish pizza?
Angelina's choices for how to sing a given song are at a genius level, especially so when she sings a tribute.
I believe, and I am not at all joking here, that this girl was born to sing.
Still one of my favorite as they were both so into the song ♥ Aretha would be so proud !
