To answer your question about how long I have known of Angelina: I am a 78 yo American who has been living in Costa Rica since retiring 16 years ago. I watch very little TV but in 2014 after her first audition on NGT went viral, a local TV station aired it and then her other 3 performances. I just happened to have had the TV on when I her her singing. I thought it was an adult or almost adult woman singing. I stopped what I was doing and went to the TV to see who it was. To my shock and amazement it was this little 7 yo with teeth missing. I Have followed her ever since watching her grow into a beautiful teenager and an even more beautiful person. I certainly have not keep count of the number of times, but i feel very safe in saying I have heard everyone of her songs on TH-cam well over 100 times. I have never felt that any one of her songs was my number 1 but maintained an ever changing top five list. That is till she released her latest cover song (All I ask by Adele). It is an absolute masterpiece in my opinion and I now have a #1 song by Angelina!! That is till she does something even more astounding which I am sure will not be long from now!! I am really enjoying your reactions to Angelina and hope you keep it going!!
DAVE-I believe Angelina Jordan seen a homeless young person a girl and Angelina was much younger herself and gave the girl her shoes. Angelina probably is going too forget the gesture she did. Angelina is singing goddess-with a huge HEART
She's so good that watching reactors react to her is every bit as entertaining as watching her for the first time!
Dave, love you, man! Hey, what did you expect? This has been regarded as her MASTERPIECE and rightfully so. But, Bohemian Rhapsody now has company because ALL I Ask has to be considered another MASTERPIECE. That one shot you froze of the audience was her family. It was her grandma, mom, sister and uncle (who is also her manager). I think of that scene often because can you imagine what they felt like during the performance!!!!! I mean, we went nuts! Can you imagine they way they felt? If you get your hands on a video which features her getting the Golden Buzzer it is definitely worth watching.Angelina's reaction is heart wrenching and the family is standing and sobbing. Geez, I'm starting to tear up just picturing the scene.
Someday, if I ever meet you and buy you a cup of coffee we can talk about the AGT results. Suffice to say Angelina's camp came to the USA and AGT to get the exposure they were seeking and, boy, did they get it. AGT, although compromised by the Angelina camp for not signing any binding contracts with AGT knew they had to have Angelina on the show. So, the results were agreed on before the results were announced. So many other details but, Dave, of course she won if everything was legit. She did two other songs during the AGT Show and both of them received standing ovations. In fact, her three appearances were the highlights of the entire show. Who won? Don't remember. I don't think anybody does. It wasn't a singer, though. That would have been ridiculous.
Thanks, Dave. I love your reactions. You will continue to be amazed as you check out Angelina's journey so far. I don't want to scare you but there's a clip of her singing Whitney Houston laying in bed with a microphone at 1 1/2 yrs old!
I have following Angelina for 4 years. She ha been my favorite ever since I first heard her. She so talented. There is no one out there who sounds like her. She is totally unique. And so sincere..
You explained perfectly WHY we subscribe to reaction channels. The feeling we get watching someone discover songs and artists that have shaped our lives, our psyches, our SOULS. It's like we get to watch you open the best gifts ever, from us to you. 😊💜💚💛✌️
My absolute favorite performance of Angelina Jordon ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👏👏👏👏👏👏
I found Angelina just after er winning Norway's got talent and can't stay away from her voice
I reconize a true fan when I see one. And you are. Without a doubt
This girl got a 23 years old young adult who weight nearly 300 pound at 5'7 in tears with how beautiful her rendition of this song . The original version alone pack quite a punch to my heart so does the ptx version . I love her . Keep on jazzing!!!
How many times have you seen the rowdy AGT audience stunned into total silence? BTW, the last judge, Heidi Klum, gave her the Golden Buzzer. I think all the judges knew of Angelina, particularly Simon who had tried to get her to sing on the show for 2 years. She & her team kept saying no because of the restrictive contract you have to sign before you perform. Finally, he relented & offered her a special contract that gave him no say in her career. Simon needed one of the greatest vocalists on the planet to boost the ratings & she needed exposure to the American audience to boost her fan-base & release an album last spring. Then came COVID-19 & here we are, still waiting for her album. I think the look on Simon's face is " I can't believe this one got away."
To use a bit of British English: that's Simon going "fuck me, this girl is going to be bigger than Beyoncé, and I won't make a single quid off of it".
You have officially become my favorite reactor.
This performance was my first exposure to Angelina. I then went back to her Norway’s Got Talent and if you are blown away now than just hold on. What this child at seven does will send you to the moon. By the way, have you heard her version of Fly My To The Moon yet?
As to her bare feet. It is a beautiful story. I may not get all the details right but at the age of six she was traveling in the Middle East. (Her grandmother is Iranian I believe, but Angelina does not identify the country she was in) she saw a child about her age on the street. The girl had bathroom scales and was weighing people as a means to make a living. The two spent several hours talking. The girl was an orphan, had siblings, dreamed of being a doctor but had little hope of achieving her dream. Angelina noticed her bare feet which torn and scared. I believe the child commented on Angelina’s shoes, a pair of green boots that Angelina loved. Without a thought Angelina gave her boots to the girl who then promised to pray for Angelina every day, that her dreams of becoming a superstar would come true. Angelina promised to always perform barefoot so that she would never forget this girl and to work for children so that every child has shoes to wear. Angelina has donated millions toward helping children and written a book about this experience.
A pleasure seeing your reactions to Angelina, I’m 72 and have followed her since late 2014 after seeing her on a Norwegian talk show. I don’t think there has ever been another singer like her...ever. I’m sure by now you have read the bios, her depth as a human matches and maybe even surpasses her depth as a vocalist. I think you have started a journey that will never disappoint you, as one judge has said...she is music.
I had never heard of "Angelina Jordan" when I stumbled on this song. My jaw went slack almost from the first bars. Almost catatonic, I barely moved until I had to click the mouse to hit replay. Then again, after it completed. Then again. And again. All in a numb buzz.
Now one of my greatest joys is watching people discover Angelina. Far and away my greatest recreation at this point. And it's not just the music. It is all backed up by who she is. Barefooted, until every child in the world has shoes. Thank you for sharing your experience with us. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
I remember the first time I watched Angelina on Norway Got Talent singing GLOOMY SUNDAY. This cute little girl with missing baby teeth and unkempt hair comes on stage. She looked very confident, answered the judges questions, signalled to the technician to start the music, flipped her hair, and started to sing. I felt something in my chest. Angelina had just lit a flame of love in my heart and the hearts of many others. Since then those flames have grown into huge infernos of love and appreciation of Angelina and her music. She single handedly changed the lives of many of us to the better with her music and actions.
Thank you Angelina and thank you for reacting to this song by the one and only Angelina Jordan
Great reaction Dave! When America’s Got Talent had aired, I had been following Angelina for about three years (I had first heard her in 2017). I think I was atypical as an American - I don’t think many of us had heard of her prior to this performance (with the exception of Angelina’s angels, of course😉). When I heard she was going to be on, I thought “IT’S ABOUT TIME!”... she was finally going to get the attention in America that she deserved (she made a bit of a splash when she performed on the View in 2017, but I’d died down and she was mostly forgotten about [an excellent performance worth reviewing, by the way]). So she did spectacularly on America’s Got Talent and then BOOM!... the Pandemic hit. 😢 This past year, most of us have been biding our time and waiting (frustratingly) for her anticipated meteoric rise to worldwide fame. Personally, I think it will happen THIS year when the Pandemic is mostly behind us and the entertainment and live performance industries slowly get back to a semblance of normalcy. It’s exciting to watch it happen. With Angelina, the SKY is the limit (as well as being her inspiration🌙🌝✨).
BTW, Dave - you should consider reacting to one of Angelina’s NGT performances. Like all of Angelina’s performances, they will blow your doors off.
The Barefoot Princess isn't just a special singer. She is a special person. At 6 she takes the shoes off her own feet and gave them to a young girl in need. That is when she became a 6 year old philanthropist and declared she would never perform with shoes on again until all children in the world have shoes. At 7, after winning NGT, she donated a portion of her winnings to charities that help the poor with an emphasis on the poor children. She became the youngest published author after writing a book about her experience with the giving away of her shoes. She arranges her own music. She designs her own cloths. She designed what she's wearing in this video. She's humble, she's kind. An older woman once told AJ her singing brought her to tears. Angelina apologized to the woman. I watched your reaction to "I Put a Spell on You". If you notice at the start of that vid she is writing on a peice of paper and then an older gentleman was reading it and chuckled. That was a 9 year old telling a seasoned conductor and a professional band how she wanted this to go. Sorry to ramble so long but she is such a complex person and has already accomplished so much at such a young age a person can go on and on about her. At the begining of this vid she said she waited 10 years to sing for Simon. She was 13. That means she already knew what path she will be going down at age 3! Saw her on AGT with this performance and that was it. She "Put a Spell On Me". It has been a priveledge to follow her career. She is a gift to the world.
She is an absolute monster. Astounding
When I heard the first note of her singing she gave me the goose bumps. I fell in love immediately with her and she never has disappointed me. I just love her. I love your reactions David. You love the music.
For my part, I cannot remember exactly, I probably saw her for the first time around 2015. I was browsing TH-cam through Talent shows performances and I stumbled upon her NGT audition song "Gloomy Sunday" in my recommendations. I felt very emotional from the very first notes. I was completely amazed by the emotions she carried and the technique she was showing at such a young age. After that, I went through all her NGT performances and her live performances available at that time.
At that point, though I've never been a fan of child singers, I also did search to see if I wasn't missing on any other prodigies. In the end, I came to the conclusion that she was the only young singer and, actually, the only Talent show performer that had this gift. No matter how technically flawless a performer could be, no one could convey these emotions as well as that 7-year-old barefoot little girl with crazy hair.
I did stop watching TH-cam and even listening to music altogether for many years, slowly restarting to listen to her two years ago. I've been listen to her everyday these past months!
The other singer I got impressed with was Morissette Amon, because she is most likely one of the best vocalists of our times. However, Angelina is special. All of us true fans are connected to her with our hearts, and that can only be possible because it's Angelina~
I was looking on internet for female Jazz artists in order to comment on a comment made by someone reacting to a song on TH-cam in 2017when I stumbled on a picture of Angelina on a clip of Gloomy Sunday. I never ended up making the comment. The next six hours were spent listening to Angelina. Now I have been able to cut my obsession down to 2 or 3 hours per day (on most days).
PS. Not looking for help.
Your P.S. busted me up!!!
Well said!
Music is powerful and if it can heal the world, then Angelina is the person to get the job done. God has given her all the tools she will need.
I'm from Norway. So I have known about her since 2014. Everything she sings, she does better than previous singers. And she is still very young. She is the next level.
I melt listening to this creative angel, love her control. Adel couldn’t come close.
I have had the pleasure of watching her journey from the start of her talent show. I was blown away when she nailed every song she sang. She is the best artist I've heard. Her God given talents has no bounds. She can make singing a telephone book sound beautiful. Looking forward to seeing her live with her own original music. 2hour live concert. Can't wait.
Her voice is like An Angel and she designs all her own clothes and does all her own arrangements
There's a reason her name is Angelina....she sings like an angel.
AJ is unique, a phenom... I cried everytime I listen her... seriuosly she touches my soul
Queen posted her performance on their social medias and said: WoW what a rendition of bohemian rhapsody
I stumbled on Angelina a little over 5 years ago. Just browsing TH-cam and "BAM". A new understanding of "Pure Music". Changed my entire view and feelings toward Music. A greater appreciation of all genres of music. Never been moved like Angelina, takes a song and draws you in deeper and deeper and deeper. Now I am down that beautiful rabbit hole and completely love it.
Perfection. Insane is right. The most beautiful rendition of Bohemian Rhapsody i have ever heard. What a wonder she is. Angelina Jordan has a knack for making the most classic of songs, her own. Who can do this EVERY time? The blonde woman with the ponytail in the audience (shown a few times) is Angelina's Mom. I so enjoy your reactions. You notice every darn thing. Everything! Thank you so much.
I've been following AJ's TH-cam videos since Summer, 2018, blown away by PUT A SPELL and I've never escaped that whirlpool since.
'Shock & Awe' on the audience/judges faces - oh wow - wait'll you see her 7-year-old Norwegian Talent show's bomb-like impact on those judges as she performed Billie Holliday's GLOOMY SUNDAY. One judge stops breathing so long that her final close-up has her gasping for breath, as if "I just forgot to breathe!!". When AJ returns later, she has the same impact singing George Gershwin's SUMMERTIME in that same canned, backing-track karaoke-style rendtion - with a live trumpet player alongside. Judges are all but blasted backwards.
One thing to note in AJ's AGT pre-performance intro-talk - she says she's been waiting to perform in front of Simon "for 10 years." Uh. She's 13. Uh. So, she's THOUGHT about performing SINCE THREE?!! Yes.
I dislike all of these talent shows and this AGT excursion is precisely why: (1) her first song is hers and hers alone "as long as it fits within our time constraints so chop up the two-verse section you want." Then (2) AGT says, "Great, but now we want an Apples To Apples comparison, so you're assigned to sing one of OUR songs - you can do it in YOUR way, but this is a song common to most every singer around; and do it in our time-constraints. (She does an excellent but entirely predictable version of YELLOW BRICK ROAD.) Her final song, too, is assigned to her, and she must share attention with two visual artists which predictably present oohs and ahhs to the audience while AJ is background Muzak. yawn...
Finally, (3) the Winner gets voted by non-judges and it's clear to at least AJ fans that her BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY is the kill-shot, the game winner in the First Inning, First Pitch. But not to the 'voters' whoever they are.
This show was filmed almost 4 months before broadcast (Oct then on TV in Jan). There were rumors she hadn't signed with Simon's puppeteers during her performance, so her Not Winning was entirely predictable, too. Why would Simon want His Show's winner to NOT be among his cattle-herd of talent? He would not, and she was not.
I am frankly more pleased with her refusal and couldn't care less about these shows. For at least those 3 reasons.
This is the performance where I first was exposed to Angelina and I was blown away and just can't get enough!
I discovered her by cruising through TH-cam videos. I find it hard to believe that you never heard of her until just recently - I would guess that Yellow Brick Road on AGT will be on your list. The thing that gets me is that when Angelina Jordan walks on that stage to do this performance she was already a professional performer. Don't get me wrong she blows my socks off. When I heard her singing some of those blues pieces, my first impression was that she must have weaned on Billy Holiday. Now you want to be rocked by an amateur on AGT, who is now a professional take a look at Grace VanderWaal.
i wish in future charity concert with AJ ,adell, del rey & many superstars get together.performance on the stage everybody "barefooted"
Been a fan for a few years now. My favorite early cover is What a Difference A Day Makes. She is a true musical genius!
BARE FEET - At age 6 Angelina and her mom were traveling when they came upon a poor girl about the same age as Angelina. The girl was sitting on the side of the road and she had no shoes on her feet. Angelina asked her why she didn't have shoes and the girl told her she was too poor to have shoes. Angelina took her shoes off and gave them to the girl. The girl offered to pray with Angelina and Angelina decided at that point that she would not wear shoes whenever she performed as a reminder to the world that there are those around us in need. She is an incredible person!!
Heard her on Norway's got talent. She has an old soul. Listening to her is very spiritual.
I had never heard of her before this performance. We watched it on TV and it stopped my wife and I in our tracks. Later when she did Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, it happened again. Amazing talent.
uper 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
You seem like such a kind hearted and friendly person. I couldn’t help having a huge smile on my face as I watched your reaction. Honest reactions without all of the harsh criticism and grand standing is getting harder to come by. This world needs more down to earth people like you. Wonderful work sir.
This is the performance that introduced me to her talent. I had never heard of her before, but immediately after her appearance on AGT I went down the rabbit hole as people like to say. And like you said in this reaction I love sitting back and seeing people discover her talent, or maybe I should say genius.
We and her dedicated Angels, definitely knew who she was and the reason for her being there at AGT Champion. Not only because she was the winner of Norway's Got Talent , it was her life long desire since the age of 3 (yes ,you're hearing correctly !) to sing in front of Simon, her idol. Also , it was a strategic move by her and her Management to base themselves in L.A to capture the large audience of USA .
Angelina wanted to impress Simone and got the highest praise from 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* 💯👣
For those of us who tuned in to watch AJ's performance in January, we saw the next-day Queen tweet about loving her performance. I doubt AJ fans needed their encouragement but, wow, to see it come FROM those three musicians - what a great honor indeed!
Queen also posted the video on their Facebook page.
I'm mad that Elton John made NO mention of her Yellow Brick Road performance!
I didn't mind that. But this was a song the judges foisted on her for THEIR convenience to do an apples-to-apples comparison will all the other kajillion slow solo-piano versions of YELLOW. No, Elton sat on his hands. Now... when there's a chance for a duet - AND at the piano - that's what I'm hoping for.
There are soooooo many Angelina videos you have to see. I discovered her when she was on Norway got Talent. Unbelievable at ages 7 and 8. You have to check out all her videos. She never sings the same song the same way twice. A true jazz artist. Fly Me To The Moon live on The view, she sounds like Billy Holiday!
This was filmed in Oct 2019 (Aired in Jan 2020). Some us knew that she was on it in Oct, and some us had even heard that she got the buzzer, but there were zero leaks on what song she was going to sing. Nobody would have predicted this. To answer your question.... I was following Angelina long before AGT, and anticipating this for 3 months prior to the air, and know of her dream to sing for simon since she was 3... I can even explain how incredible this was to watch that night. I also can't overstate how much exposure this gave her. The fanbase exploded after this.
Also.... I usually only leave this once for any give reactor, but I am getting the feeling that maybe you missed it the first time ;) If nothing else, read why she sings barefoot...
*Angelina Jordan*
- Angelina Jordan was born Jan 10 2006 in Oslo, Norway. She is currently 15
- She began singing at the age of one and a half
- At 2 or 3 she discovered Jazz through her grandmother and started studying all the greats from Jazz history with youtube videos.
- *Why Angelina always sings barefoot* - When Angelina was 6 years old, she was traveling with her grandmother and met a poor girl with no shoes trying to make money on the streets. They talked for a while and discussed their dreams. It was cold and the girl had scars on her feet. Seeing this, Angelina took off her shoes and gave them to the girl. The girl thanked her and told Angelina she would pray for her every day. That day Angelina made a vow to always sing barefoot until all the children of the world could have shoes. To this day, whenever Angelina is performing in public, she sings barefoot as a way to remember that little girl and to remind us that there are less fortunate people in the world that could use our help.
Angelina holds so true to this promise that she has sung outdoors in Norway, in december... barefoot. She has sung at a dinner with ex-pres Obama... barefoot. She went on AGT (possibly the biggest stage in the world)...bare foot. She made a promise at 6 years old, and has stuck strong to it for years. That takes a special kind of person.
- She has always been the driving force behind her own singing career. It was her that asked her mother to take her to Norways Got Talent, where she auditioned at 7 years old and went on to win the whole show at just 8 years old.
- In an interview after the show, when asked what she was going to do with the prize money, the 8 year old replied, "I would like to give it to orphans that need clothes and shoes"
- When Angelina was 9 years old she became the youngest published author in Norway, when she wrote a book about the story of why she doesn't wear shoes when she sings. She donated proceeds from the sales of the book to help children in need.
- The reason you may not have heard of her is because her parents are very protective of her childhood. After she won NGT, they did not want her to be thrust into stardom before she had a chance to grow up as a normal child, and get her education. They allowed her to do a few select shows (mainly private and charity events) with a couple public shows every year when she is out of school. Her mother said in an interview that they have turned down 90% of the offers that came in. Over the years since NGT, they have turned down offers from many major record labels and even disney.
- Angelina has covered more than 130 songs and over 65 artists in the last 6 years. She always selects the songs herself... everything ranging from old classic jazz to modern pop. She is able to change her voice to match any song she sings and make it her own. (she can cover Amy Winehouse and Lana del Rey like nobody else)
- Angelina has collaborated with some very big names over the last few years... Quincy Jones, Mark Ronson, David Foster, Alan Walker and many more. All of which heard her and were blown away by her talent.
- Angelina has written four of her own original songs: "What is Life", "Shield", "Oslo", and "Million Miles" (all are amazing...all can be found on youtube)
In summary, Angelina Jordan is destined to be one of the greatest singers to have ever lived. This is just my opinion, but if you listen closely to any of her stuff you will hear the greatness. She sings with a natural style. There is no acting, no showing off, there are no unnecessary runs, or big belty notes just for the purpose of saying "hey look at me sing". She once said "when I sing I go into a beautiful world in my head", and you can always hear the results of that. When Angelina sings it is pure soul, pure emotion, pure music.
- Updates: On Aug 26, 2020 Angelina's Manager/Uncle announced in an interview that they have decided on Republic Records as the best fit for Angelina and she is now signed with them as their "highest priority new artist".
On Nov 6 she released her first single under Republic... "Million Miles"!
On March 19 2021 Angelina released her latest single "7th Heaven"
She has done so much already, but at 15 she is just getting started!!!
Dave, Rusty is the Angelina guru, if he doesn't know it, it didn't happen.
You asked when we first came across Angelina Jordan. For me it was purely by chance. On 27th June 2018 I went to the concert for Quincy Jones 85th birthday at the O2 in London. Went to see Mick Hucknall from Simply Red and Mark Ronson. A 12 year old girl had been invited to open the show singing Fly me to the moon. Quincy Jones had done the arrangements of this for Frank Sinatra. I had never heard of Angelina before, but have spent the time since then watching her huge numbers of you tube videos.
I been following her for a long time....she ghastly the ability to pull one in and make old songs current ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Yes !! Watched her on Norway's got talent . when she was seven , singing Gloomy Sunday !! Amazing!
This was my introduction to Angelina, and what ever musical knowledge I thought I had past or present was changed from then on. I spent 2 weeks watching everything I could find about her. I fell in love with her voice, I listen to her everyday, only exception was a couple of days when I had covid. My favorite singer. Thumbs up Dave.
Nice reaction. I discovered Angela about 2 years ago shortly after my wife of 45 years passed away while I was surfing TH-cam. Now I listen to her every single day throughout the day.
This was the first time I saw Angelina
I have been following Angelina for maybe 6 months. I don't generally watch AGT or reality shows or contests.
Love your reaction.... and Oh yes..... I saw her at 7 on numerous shows. both here in American and overseas. I did not actually follow her. but after this I have.....Barefoot......Great story......Check out her interview on a Norwegian program where she wrote a book about her encounter with a homeless girl (Angelina was 6 years old) Gave her shoes to the girl and promised she would always preform barefoot until every child in the world had shoes.....AND oh please get wordy......
What Alesha Dixon said to Angelina was "Jeg elsker deg" (yi elska di), which means "I love you" in Norwegian.
Angelina also sang yellow brick road by Elton John on AGT which I think was unbelievable! Your reaction to that would be good to see,,it was the first song her heard her sing and I have listened to everything else she has done since then,I am a big fan now and do believe she could go places where no one else has gone before if she stays true to herself!
This is the first time I had seen/heard her and I was hooked immediately. I watched this performance that same night at least 20 times
Great comments, Dave. After watching probably several hundred reactions, you gave me some new insight to this amazing CONCERT. 👏 As a Norwegian I am embarassed to say I had not heard about her until this performance. It made me realise I've been living under a rock buried in too much work the last years. I realised I had to work less, appreciate life and all it has to give. And Angelina and her voice is the best there is. I'm a fan for life. ❤
She got a golden buzzer from Heidi..🌹💟
That was the best reaction and analysis I've heard on this performance. You get it! Having just discovered her you have done incredibly well in understanding what you just discovered and offering true fresh insightfulness. Most reactors finish stunned but not fully understanding what they have just witnessed and unable to understand the measure of greatness they are witnessing! You realized it right away, but then again you stumbled upon her most recent drop and another Adele cover which I thinks ranks with one of her best covers ever! You are catching her at her current best and growing. I am still astounded how every time I hear her she seems to have gotten better and I just can't understand how that is possible and I've listened to them all, over and over. It was fun to watch you discover her at her best! I am going to enjoy watching your journey into our Barefoot Princess of Jazz. Your analysis is again, insightful and right on point. Your observation of peoples knowledge or lack of knowledge of the Audience of the legend standing before them. I call her a legend because I believe she has already earned that title by accomplishing what she has already accomplished in her young life. Michael Jackson is the only one I can think of that comes close to comparison. Thats megastar up there with Michael, Elvis, Patsy Cline, Billy Holiday... one of the Greatest Vocalists of All Time! I truly believe Angelina is Destined to Be One of the Best Vocalists of All Time. The GOAT! In my opinion. Looking forward to watching your journey.
I didn't know who she was until a couple of days ago. I've heard many sing...but her performance of BR was when you see music evolve into art. It moves you.
I found Angilina about 5years ago and been addicted ever since. Only thing I'm addicted to, besides cigarettes! 😁🇺🇸. I just love her!💐
she got the golden buzzer from heidi for this performance.
This was the first moment i ever seen her. I was watching the show and I promise i have listened to her every day since
she is the composer of her music and she even tells the orcherstra what to do, lol, she is so professional.
Wouldn't you hate to be the other contestants sitting in the back listening to this and waiting your turn?
Instant panic 😂
@@whatitdodave , I subscribed a few days ago because of your favorable reaction to Angelina. Just thought you'd like to know something for future reference -- The four people on the front row the camera kept cutting to, and where you paused it at the end for your comments, are her family. And what a close, tight-knit, supportive family they are! The man is Angelina's Uncle Michael Astar (who is also her manager and the one who helped her close the deal with Republic Records last year). The little girl is Angelina's adorable sister Juliette. If you ever react to Angelina's cover of Amy Winehouse's "Valerie," you will see Juliette dancing behind Angelina on the beach where it was filmed. Cuteness plus! The pretty blonde lady is Angelina's mother Sara Astar who has been very wise and protective of Angelina during her childhood, upbringing, and methodical, almost chess-like moves into the musical scene. The older lady is Angelina's grandmother Meri Zamani. She is a famous Iranian artist / poet, being a prodigy herself when she was a child! You will see her paintings in the background from time to time in many of Angelina's "at-home" performances. She is actually the one who "introduced" Angelina to music at one year of age, and began helping Angelina actually research and learn primarily jazz songs (and other genre) at age three! There is a very short video clip of Angelina singing part of "I Will Always Love You" at 18-MONTHS (!) after hearing Whitney Houston sing it several times on her Grandmother's CD! Hope this is good background information for you! Blessings to you!
I would pack up my accordion, my kazoo and my spoons and leave...
Dave, I'm from Brazil and discovered Angelina back in 2015. Watched her final and winning performance in NGT, Summertime. I was left speechless, totally in shock, my brain freezed, and needed some time to get my breath back. Never felt like that before with any artist, band or musician in my life. That was not normal at all and then realized I had discovered a huge, raw, unbelievable music gem. Well, to be honest, I've never recovered since then and it seems I never will! Thankfully! Cheers!!
I discovered Angelina over 4 years when i did a search on youtube for worldwide talent show winners. There she was on Norway's Got Talent. I've been following her ever since.
Last April 2020 I saw this performance of AJ's and I was picking my jaw of the floor... I was absolutely gob smacked. I did not know her before this performance...
It's television...AGT had been trying to get Angelina to sing for them since she won Norway - family declined (and many other industry offers), to keep control & give her a normal childhood as much as possible. Another hint that it's TV is, she was 7 for her first performance but was 8 when she won. The math would have been too hard in the split second of that conversation so they made her lie...All AGT performances were recorded in Oct/Nov 2019, so she was 13 for all of them. The judges knew who she was, but they didn't know she was going to sing Simon's favorite song. Thanks for another sweet reaction!
I found Angelina as she won Norway's got talent 1st song I heard was summertime what a ride it has been her family has turned down 90% of all requests for her to perform before age13 just wanted her to be a child but no matter talent like hers busted through and it's great to see her carrier take-off.
I've been following Angelina for about 2 years now. I thought it was only one year but I went back to the first time I saw her on a reactors channel by the name of smylyface and it's been 2 years. Wow time has gone by fast! Once you hear Angelina sing you don't want to stop hearing her sing. Love your channel and have been subscribed to you for some time now and I'm so happy you are finally reacting to Angelina 🧡 thank you
Angelina was traveling on a country when she saw a poor girl with a scale for weights. her feet had sores and obviously no shoes. Angelina gave her the shoes she was wearing. The girl told Angelina that she was never going to forget her and Angelina promise her to not wear shoes on her performances until all the children in the World had shoes. When Angelina was 9 years old she wrote a book about this event (hopefully I remembered all the facts)
I have been watching her since the beginning---watched her videos since she was 5 years old--she is an amazing talent and has been all her life--so powerful-so precious and so innocent---Dave-, I hope you check her out and you will be even more surprised---Angelina Jordan --so great
This song started my journey, and life will never be the same.
ditto!
I discovered her roughly the same time the pandemic took hold in the Uk..she helped me through that and then from a family disaster that happened in the following April. Only listening to Angelina allowed me to forget..just for a shirt while. I can never thank her enough.
Hi Dave...loved your reaction. In answer to your question about Angelina before this AGT performance, here is what I know, which maybe missing some facts (Rusty Shackleford would know more) but she was approached by AGT after winning NGT at 7-8 years old to appear on AGT. Angelina and her family, who are very protective of her, refused do to the AGT, (Simon) because of the Contract restraints on signing with them. Eventually, Angelina and her family allowed her to appear on this show, only after they removed the restraints of contracts with AGT. Likely why she did not win this nonsense show since she was clearly the best performer on AGT that year. Is what it is I guess, though she did receive a lot of exposure to the American audiences... Rest is history. BTW, the blond lady they keep showing in the Audience is her Mom, also there are her Grandma Mery, little sis Juliette and her manager, Uncle Mike.
I found her shortly after her Norway's Got Talent singing Summertime. Been a fan ever since.
the moment you stop the vid after her performance min. 6:49 you can see her granni, her mom with her sister and her manager. her father don't like to go puplic or on camera and photo's. her manager is her uncle. her granni is an artist in painting and has done angelina's fashon outfit from her painting's. she is doing her photos or videoclips for some coversong's. so it's a real family buisness. they all suport and protect her going this way to be the bigest jazzsinger in the future of the whole world. that's her vision since she is 6 years old. i follow her since 5 years and hungry of each new uplouded video on yt. thanks, thumbs up and greetings from germany!
I first heard Angelina at this performance. I'm envious of those who found her earlier. Every day since January 6, 2020, I have listened to Angelina many times each day. She made 2020 more bearable. It started with Bohemian Rhapsody and ended with Million Miles, her 1st original with Republic Records. Now we have one more original and a new cover. Life is good!
👩🏻🎤🎵🌎⭐️🇳🇴❤️ Only Angelina could turn Bohemian Rhapsody into an instant jazz classic.
She has hooked you like so many other people who became aware of her as a result of this performance. I hope you realize that this was her interpretation and arrangement. I was going to tell you the results of the competition, but I'll honor your request to let you find out on your own. A great reaction I believe there were about 3,00 people in the audience, and you could hear a pin drop. She owned the audience from her first note.
I've been watching her since Norway's got Talent. I first saw her on the View right after she won. Cool journey. I never really believed I would experience a true icon in my lifetime. There are certainly Rock Gods( as Freddy called himself and indeed he was) but she is something different. She told the interviewer at Norway's got Talent that she wanted to be a superstar. And well....there you have it!😊
I have been following Angelina since 2014 when her audition on NGT went viral with her singing Gloomy Sunday by Billie Holiday at the age of 7.
Angelina is not only an amazing singer & performer, she has a heart of gold, giving her shoes to another young girl who didn't have any, & vowed not to wear shoes when she performs to bring awareness to poverty issues around the world......she truly is a rare and precious gift!!! ***LOVE YOUR REACTIONS TO ANGELINA, WHEN YOU SMILE, I SMILE***
Great reaction to this beautiful angel Dave she really kills it even Queen reacted to her on Twitter, the little I know after N.G.T. she's done talk shows, concerts, been with famous artist, turning down 90% of the offers her family wants her to be a normal girl, schooling is important as her mother said, I think that's why A.J. is so humble she's got a great family 👏👏👍🤘🇨🇱❤
Angelina singing "I don't wanna die, I sometimes wish I've never been born at all"... and then seeing her mother wiping away the tears of little sister Juliette's face, gets me every time...
These talent show audiences are special. You need an arrangement, in which you can show all kind of your skills, emotion, range, compressed in 2and a half minutes. Reflecting that, this was a masterpiece.
I saw her first time on NGT, 7 years old. And ever since that I have been hooked
I watched her on Norway’s Got Talent, couldn’t believe how great she was at only 7 years old! Love her!
First saw her perform at Norway got talent when she was 7. Got mesmerized by her then. Kind of weard to be fan of such a young person. Feels better now as she is growing up so beautifully
I saw the original airing of AGT and thought the performances were amazing. During my stay at home time during lockdown, I began watching reactions to Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody and couldn't believe how many people had never hears it. Then I came upon Angelina's version and remembered her from AGT. Then I saw she had done I put a spell on you and watched it. Blew me away! I have watched her videos every single day since and never get bored. It's such a rare opportunity to witness the progression of a child from age 6 develop to the artist she is today. Angelina has taken me ba ck to my love of music that I had left behind years ago with work and family. Instead of watching TV I spend my time enjoying music on YT. Thank god for You Tube b/c it seems radio just has a song list they go through over and over who they want to promote whereas YT gives me so much more! PS I always stay to the end to get opinions and reactions otherwise what's the point? Like you said, I want to see the faces to confirm my own opinion. Thanks Dave, your reactions are awesome
I spotted a little girl alone on a stage, when I was surfing the blues, probably late 2015. It was Angelina, singing "Gloomy Sunday". Its been a trip since.
I am from Norway so i saw her when she won NGT and shocked the world and went Viral on TH-cam and social media. Btw... she got the golden buzzer from Heidi Klum at the end there. Go see it ! And also react to the barefoot story on TH-cam. There is a interview where she talks about it. It is with english translation ❤
My first exposure to Angelina Jordan was this performance on AGTC 2020.
I have followed Angelina Jordan Astar since her early Norway Got Talent audition
I have been following AJ long before this performance. I saw her right after she won Norway's got talent.
Queen was so impressed they put on their Twitter
I know Angelina four years prior to AGT. What AGT did for her is that Bohemian Rhapsody got tens of millions of views if not more. And that was throughout the world. It gave her exposure worldwide, but especially in the United States where she was less well known. Her version of Bohemian Rhapsody was arranged by herself and received wide acclaim. In fact, Queen members reposted her version on their website!
Next, I would encourage you to react to Angelinas Goodbye Yellow Brick Road from Elton John. Bohemian Rhapsody was her audition on the show, and the Elton John song was her final. It is quite special.
yes I watched her since of her of 3 yrs old and she could sing then. she is amazing!!!
