This untrained ear hears, Whitney - clean, pure, powerful, precise; Angelina - rich (dirty in the best possible way), emotional, complex, fluid with waves that hit the soul. Each with unmatched strengths, and a pleasure to listen to. However, I have and will listen to Angelina a thousand times for each time I listen to Whitney. Respect everyone's personal preferences.
This performance is beyond belief, the cinemaphotography, the ART, and this time we get to savor over 4 minutes of total bliss, no one is capable of doing this song justice like Angelina Jordan. David Foster and Linda Thompson, who co-wrote this ballad for Whitney Houston would be blown away by this performance.
Angelina has just put out her first EP it has 5 original songs on it and it is absolutely amazing and beautiful. You are missing out if you don't listen to them. I am so proud and excited for her. Blessings from South Africa.
Great observations about this performance. It’s hard to believe, but you’ve only heard a tiny fraction of how good she is. Actually, this song is sort of out of her normal comfort zone, but I think she challenges herself this way. Much of her jazz and blues influence results in more intimate and nuanced vocals rather then the sustained power and belts she gave us here. Okay-here’s your best recommendation today: watch Angelina’s cover of Suspicious Minds. It’s filmed in the same antique store as today’s. But you’ll see Angelina in a genre she handles like no one else-completely opposite of what you just saw. Her strength is not just her vocals, but her ability to re-interpret songs so beautifully and completely that the iconic original is immediately your second favorite. Suspicious Minds is extraordinary musically, vocally, and artistically. It’s Angelina in a genre that she just kills, and she’s hitting on all cylinders.
She's 16 yo and crafting her instrument. The video is shot in the same place as Funny Valentine and Suspicious Minds covers this year, 2022. Your detailed observations are much appreciated. I learn a lot when you critique. Isn't the long velvet ribbon of that last note a great thing to take home???? Ryan, thank you. 💜
During her recent concerts in Norway, Angelina dedicated this song to her grandmother Mery who has been battling health issues. We wish Mery all the very best and many more years of enjoying time with her incredible family. Ryan, thank you so very much for providing links for Angelina in the description. Since few people read the description, I suggest you tell your viewers to use those links.
I'm really amazed that you would say she is "mimicking Whitney Houston". She is not only not mimicking, she is completely different. The only similarities are the notes and words of the song itself, which also do not even try to be a copy of what WH did.
I agree, I listened to the Whitney version recently and have listened to Angelina's countless times, they are actually quite different. Except for most of the lyrics. The part where she sings don't you DARE walk away twice whereas Whitney did not, at least the version I heard
I was a Whitney fan from the beginning of her career to her tragic end. Whitney was great, but Angelina at 16 is far better than Whitney ever was at making you feel each word, and phrase. AJ changes every cover to make if hers and far, far better than the original. AJ is the greatest STORYTELLING ARTEST I have ever experienced in my 75 years.
ABSOLUTELY no mimicking ANGELINA performs this song to suit her voice I'm no expert but from others they have said she comes down in tone .that apart it's clearly a different interpretation.
There are similarities (of course), but there are plenty of differences that are all Angelina - her personal creative flavour. She definetly was not trying to do exactly the same Whitney did, and I don't think that is what Ryan intended to communicate. Be easy on the guy 😉 Angelina sets the standard for singers. Good luck, singers!
From South Africa 🇿🇦...We greet you Ryan... Thanks for your positivity which does cast a nice reflection on the true artist Angelina. For anyone out there who even tries to show negativity wrt this amazing Artist , do yourself a favour and again go and listen to : What a difference a day makes - 8 years old. Summertime on NGT. - " Summertime with KORK- 9 years old. I put a spell on you - b & w studio version - 9 yrs old. Move along to her Adele covers at 13 - 14 yrs old... then... Fast forward to her rendition of " My funny Valentine " / Suspicious minds / I have nothing (studio version) all at 16 yrs of age. If after completing this exercise , the detractors do not face the reality of just how brilliant Angelina is , and also refuse to face the fact that she Was , Is , and Will always be the " Leader of the Pack "... there is little hope for you !!! Simon Cowell ( the legend ) was not fortunate enough to get her into his stable... However , in contrast , Republic Records was successful , and even had the temerity of labelling Angelina " PRIORITY "... and this in turn should perhaps give the ' naysayers ' time to reflect and hopefully adjust themselves , all the while scraping the egg off of their faces. THIS GIRL IS DIFFERENT !... and what's more " Angelina CANNOT be pigeonholed or compartmentalized." We Angels knowingly appreciate our Barefoot Princess who presents that which is so Unique , Enjoyable , depicts zero Duplicity , and above all is genuinely Soul satisfying. 🥰. 👣 Bear in mind that the first qualified judge of music she faced on stage at 7 years old said this to Angelina : " You ARE Music !!! " Also refer to the positive statements on Angelina by Quincy Jones , who most likely knows more than probably 99 .99 % of the world population when it comes down to music . Therefore my best advice to all out there : " Humbly face facts ... Reassess... and... Enjoy the journey !
She’s in so much more control of her voice now. I think the first time she did this cover she was too young. I mean considering it was great but now it’s so much better. Also, she’s now singing it in her own range, with her own voice, which is great. She’s so amazing! Her skills are unmatched
The Cinemaphotography, a total MASTERPIECE, Excellent ART Cole McCarthy and Chip McCarthy. Angelina at 16 is the MASTER of her universe, she is top priority for both Stargate, and Republic Records. AJ's voice has been unique since she was 7 years old and now at 16, she controls us as an audience, leaving us hang on every word and phrase. AJ adopts the performance to pay homage to the original hit but then makes it her own and so much better than the original. Credits: Director: Cole McCarthy Executive Producer: Mery Zamani Art Director: Chip McCarthy Piano & Arrangements: Rob Christie Gaffer: Kevin Rios Coordinator: Michael Astar Location: Los Angeles, CA ℗All Rights Reserved - Angelina Jordan Inc There are no ends to the unique signature voice of Angelina Jordan, and her ability to feed our need for the finest STORYTELLING ARTIST that has ever lived in this period of time. At 75 I thought I had experienced the greatest, but nothing compares to AJ.
Ryan, Angelina may be only sixteen years old, but she is a bona fide, elite master level vocalist. She might mimic parts of another artist’s technique, but she never approaches covering a song with the intent to sound just like the original artist. More often than not, Angelina’s covers are better sounding than the original artist’s performance. Angelina is also an extraordinary story teller. Angelina’s gift for story telling has caused me to listen to the lyrics of songs I’ve heard many times, for the first time.
I had the pleasure of attending two of her Kurbadhagen concerts. Actually I flew from New Jersey to Oslo twice It was so emotional, even Angeline cried at one point. Breathtaking. I the good fortune to spend time with Angelina and her mother (Sara) after both concerts There is o singer on the planet that comparts to her
She changed the key to this song, but does it really matter as long as she has the ability to give each word, or phrase, meaning like no one else in this universe can. How can she evoke such emotion in each and every performance? Why do I get chills, or cry tears, or lose my breath when Angelina sing a song that I have experienced many times in the past without this happening? If this feeling only happened to me that would be ok, but it happens to billions of people. We play these videos of AJ over, and over again to get our high. I was a Whitney fan from the beginning of her career to her tragic end. Whitney was great, but Angelina at 16 is far better than Whitney ever was at making you feel each word, and phrase. AJ changes every cover to make if hers and far, far better than the original. AJ is the greatest STORYTELLING ARTEST I have ever experienced in my 75 years.
Good quality commentary. Everything about this performance is top notch. Her body language and movement really emphasize the lyrics and melody flow. There is something about her arm movement going into the first chorus that is very engaging, spontaneous and appropriate. Also strange that we now see her as "older", a function of seeing her stellar performances from the age of ten or so. The next few years will be special as she enters real diva territory.
Did you not know that she had three or four concerts in Norway this summer? There are a lot of videos of the songs she sang on UT right now. She wore this dress at the first concert while singing this song. Also, this is the same venue, an antique shop in LA, that they used for two of her previous releases. They know the owners, plus I think they must like the acoustics for recording. She’s very relaxed and relatable when onstage-right at home.
You should hear her cover of Suspicious Minds! She reinvents the song and invests it with so much meaning. Here's a link for your convenience: th-cam.com/video/RTbKhkceR00/w-d-xo.html
Her voice is getting mature but she only turned 17 on the 10th January, so she is still a teenager, with a magnificent voice. She is also such a beautiful soul. I am 76 and find great comfort and joy listening to her. Great things are going to be hers. Thank you for your reactions. Blessings from South Africa.
i am not sure there is a female match to her musical talent in human history to be honest. Yes, whitney houston was awesome but could she have sung all the genres and styles AJ can excel at? The same goes for every other major female star. Then you have her composition and arrangement skills which remind me of Mozart who could improve a song after a single listen. She is unique.
Wonderful, detailed, and enthusiastic reaction. You might want to react to Angelina's recent Suspicious Minds cover. Very different style and dynamics, and another performance that shows her mastery. She has learned from the greats and clearly applied herself to honing a rare innate talent.
This was spectacular and another one of the admirable performances of her career. I also appreciate your comments and opinions. This was surely a taste of things to come. Your reaction was sincere and enjoyable, but please remember to elevate a bit more your support for aspiring and deserving young artists like Angelina that you appreciate, as it will create more subscriptions and fan loyalty. Encourage your viewers to like, share, and comment on the links you provide for Angelina's original video, and to subscribe using your links to her official and cover Channels. Suggest they do the same for you! Thank you for already providing the links, but realize most of your viewers do not know how to best support you or the artist without your verbal encouragement. Young aspiring artists need and deserve your support for their algorithm and career. Many fans including myself will be more likely to subscribe to your channel when you implement these guidelines for Angelina and other young artists. Thank you for all you do. Peace.
You were doing great on your review, but like so many others, you just can't refrain from referring to the original artist... It still hasn't really hit you yet...because she's covering a song, doesn't require you compare her rendition by pointing out the things the original artist did, and "good girl" you did it too... Angelina is not a "cookie cutter singer", she's her own person, an ARTIST doing it her own way.. she demonstrates a mastery of how and when to use ALL of those techniques, the pallet she uses to add colors to her performance make it clear ... You don't have to belt your way through a song to be extraordinary, what she produces with her natural talent, making it her fresh, captivating and exquisite is in itself extraordinary.. and Angelina is so beyond that . Thnx for your reaction, PEACE!
In regards to Angelina supposedly mimicking Whitney. You may not believe this but the reason that whoever said that said it is because you were only familiar with this song having come from Whitney Houston first and so it's natural to make a comparison. The notes, the pitches, the duration of the notes and everything have already been established and so there is a tendency in the human mind to naturally compare something new against something that they are already familiar with. That is what someone does when they compare Angelina to Whitney Houston or, God forbid, Amy Winehouse.
Good critique on this, thank you. By way of info/suggestion, back in June 2018 when she was 12, AJ did an open-air concert with the Norwegian Armed Forces Band. She covered 13 numbers: It's Magic What is Life Cheek to Cheek Oslo Crazy Fly Me to the Moon Cry Me a River I'm a Fool to Want You La Boheme Mr Lonely Speak Softly Love It's a Man's World Can't Help Falling in Love. All worth a listen, but especially It's a Man's World - quite extraordinary. Here's a link to to all 13. th-cam.com/play/PLbc1I8fGx6k0e7D4a35pAr9ZSEEjpMG0p.html All the best, and keep up the good work.
Great reaction again. Thank you so much Ryan. Angelina`s ability to do runs is just one more of her "trade marks", her spesialities. Abilitues that also includes even her eminent skills to never never never overdo her runs. She did 3 conserts this summer, + 2 performamces for an outdoor TV show. There are lots of great videos, both TV productions and fan-cams productions of these performances of hers. If you wanted to hear her sing "Valerie", this is her newest take on that one: th-cam.com/video/J3fZlkMSghM/w-d-xo.html Another great fan-made video of her Valerie rendition is this one. It shows various video-clips from several performances/rehearsels and even features Angelina`s younger sister Juliette th-cam.com/video/C1X2aO4_RwQ/w-d-xo.html
Great reaction -- love your comments on her pronunciation. Very insightful. Subbed on this basis. I would strongly agree with other comments that she is not mimicking Whitney. For one thing, this performance is in the key of E (as opposed to G) b/c AJ is essentially an alto. The vocal fry is totally different. We can go into it, but to me this is a very different version than Whitney's.
Just had her concert in Norway and she would go in Japan next, but don’t know the date and she’ll be going to London to open up a Quincy Jones at his birthday. She didn’t say whatever countries don’t know the dates don’t know when they’re gonna be, but that she gonna be around the world.
You are missing her first original drop with Republic Records on the 5th May Love Don't Let me Go, it is really absolutely fabulous. Do yourself a favor and listen to it. Enjoy your reactions. Blessings from South Africa.
She was in Paris, France performing for the football theme, song, or soccer. I him in words and she saw him the national song of the soccer team with red ribbon is an international thing a star producer, record how do I hit records and she sung on stage she was actually stunning and she had no shoes I meant if I have 350 million people watching you in about 10,000 in the audience and she sang for them and she was stunning
She did a song on Norway Oslo, June of the August and July 3 times live you might be able to find it on the Internet and she’s leaving for Japan do a concert. She’s pretty busy and her new album I’ll be out sometime and 23.
These kids today should grow into the best of the best and we are seeing them younger and younger. They have so much more exposure to complicated runs, vocals and rhythms than a lot of your earlier generations. They hear it 24/7 on TV, radio and internet. Theres so many great voices out there now, everyone wants to be the next Whitney even today. Whitney had that something special that people will mimic for years to come
This was really insightful - do you mind posting the audio version of these videos on audea? i like to listen more than watch and that's where I get most of my audio content.
She’s in Portsmouth New Hampshire right now doing a concert. I had tickets but I couldn’t go. I’ll give them to my cousins. They said there’s thousands of people there not feel that are any up arena arena up she said just tell me the flooding in like but it doesn’t doesn’t.
Angelina has performed ‘I Have Nothing’ three times (I’m grouping all the live versions together). The original- th-cam.com/video/eTcvvO6B3Io/w-d-xo.html - has 14.5 million views and the live version - th-cam.com/video/AqtIVYFjapQ/w-d-xo.html - has 1.3 million views in less than 3 weeks, it is the Official version - th-cam.com/video/iX0g99jN26U/w-d-xo.html - has more than 200,000 views in three days. Not only is the Official version the best it has the potential to vastly outstrip the other versions by the end of the year if not earlier. I personally think the Official version is better than Whitney Houston’s version.
Whitney fans only wish she had been this talented. Whitney was great there is no arguing that but Angelina is already hands down light years ahead of just about every singer at the same age. She can already go toe to toe (voice to voice ... performance to performance) with any "all time great" that anyone cares to name. Sure some of them will have a performance here or there to stand beside her, but if people are truly honest I doubt other performances would out "score" Angelina's.
Japan, doing this mini concert there she opened up for Casey Jones in London at all. I read it number two in London to the first singer to sing on the platform is 85th birthday. Then she’s been to Germany. She sang I have nothing there she’s been to UK and she sang there again I’ve been there and she’s been to Australia. She’s so Mira de around the world is from what she’s gonna replace now she’s coming back to Oslo to the short interview and clever, if one of her friends and Lady Gaga‘s team quiet contact her I wanted to collaborate with her so she’s been busy and she come back to Norway she live in there and she’s gonna come back to Los Angeles California worse 11 and she goes to work at another album that’s all I know
For me her big talent is not exactly on voice, but in the ritmus, the entonations, the colors! That is why i dont like her covering this song, she is doing like most of all, and there is others better than her covering that, but she can be Perfect in other styles doing her own!
Wow, your ear for nuances is lacking. Angelina as opposed to Whitney uses much more vibrato, breathiness, and many more melismas, both ascending and descending. She also sings it at a slower tempo, with more rests between verses. Angelina has totally made this her own. Sorry, but you need to go back and listen to Whitney, and not the movie version which was heavily modified electronically in the studio, rather her live performances.
@@rogercarriere4756 Right?! Can you imagine having nothing better to do than troll on a 16 year old girl. I almost feel sorry for the poor b*stard. On the other hand, not really!
These kids today should grow into the best of the best and we are seeing them younger and younger.

And to think she's only 16! Can't wait to see where she will be in 5-10 years. Stay tuned.
This untrained ear hears, Whitney - clean, pure, powerful, precise; Angelina - rich (dirty in the best possible way), emotional, complex, fluid with waves that hit the soul. Each with unmatched strengths, and a pleasure to listen to. However, I have and will listen to Angelina a thousand times for each time I listen to Whitney. Respect everyone's personal preferences.
well said
second it
Angelina breaks down our walls with the strength of her love and phenomenal vocal artistry. Wonderful!
This performance is beyond belief, the cinemaphotography, the ART, and this time we get to savor over 4 minutes of total bliss, no one is capable of doing this song justice like Angelina Jordan.

Absolutely. Best wishes to Mery.
All the best for Mery! I really hope she has many healthy years to come. And of course many more videos taken by her from Angelina ;)
Angelina is angelina she is her self.she doesnt try to sound like anyone

yes, do that next.......please.
Great comments. More Angelina please!
Her voice is getting mature but she only turned 17 on the 10th January, so she is still a teenager, with a magnificent voice. She is also such a beautiful soul. I am 76 and find great comfort and joy listening to her. Great things are going to be hers. Thank you for your reactions. Blessings from South Africa.
Beautiful performance 👏
Wow, "mimicking Whitney Houston"? Must be listening to a different vocalist than I am I guess. Cheers.
I like the way you Analyze her performance; you teach me.
Her talent is almost spooky, she's so good. I feel like she's a once in a generation singer. Exquisite and incredible
i am not sure there is a female match to her musical talent in human history to be honest. Yes, whitney houston was awesome but could she have sung all the genres and styles AJ can excel at? The same goes for every other major female star. Then you have her composition and arrangement skills which remind me of Mozart who could improve a song after a single listen. She is unique.
Wonderful, detailed, and enthusiastic reaction. You might want to react to Angelina's recent Suspicious Minds cover. Very different style and dynamics, and another performance that shows her mastery. She has learned from the greats and clearly applied herself to honing a rare innate talent.
She is recording this in the Melrose Gallery in the Hollywood area of LA, the 3rd song she's recorded there this year.
Awesome reaction, God Bless!
Angelina ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Super reaction Ryan, I'm anxious to see you react to more Angelina!
thanks for the great reaction, and now you have a new subscriber.
Concert in Norway in September and July
This was spectacular and another one of the admirable performances of her career. I also appreciate your comments and opinions. This was surely a taste of things to come.
Your reaction was sincere and enjoyable, but please remember to elevate a bit more your support for aspiring and deserving young artists like Angelina that you appreciate, as it will create more subscriptions and fan loyalty.

Excellent reaction Ryan.
In regards to Angelina supposedly mimicking Whitney. You may not believe this but the reason that whoever said that said it is because you were only familiar with this song having come from Whitney Houston first and so it's natural to make a comparison. The notes, the pitches, the duration of the notes and everything have already been established and so there is a tendency in the human mind to naturally compare something new against something that they are already familiar with. That is what someone does when they compare Angelina to Whitney Houston or, God forbid, Amy Winehouse.
Good critique on this, thank you. By way of info/suggestion, back in June 2018 when she was 12, AJ did an open-air concert with the Norwegian Armed Forces Band. She covered 13 numbers:
It's Magic
What is Life
Cheek to Cheek
Oslo
Crazy
Fly Me to the Moon
Cry Me a River
I'm a Fool to Want You
La Boheme
Mr Lonely
Speak Softly Love
It's a Man's World
Can't Help Falling in Love.
All worth a listen, but especially It's a Man's World - quite extraordinary.
Here's a link to to all 13. th-cam.com/play/PLbc1I8fGx6k0e7D4a35pAr9ZSEEjpMG0p.html
All the best, and keep up the good work.
Great reaction again. Thank you so much Ryan.
Angelina`s ability to do runs is just one more of her "trade marks", her spesialities. Abilitues that also includes even her eminent skills to never never never overdo her runs.
She did 3 conserts this summer, + 2 performamces for an outdoor TV show. There are lots of great videos, both TV productions and fan-cams productions of these performances of hers. If you wanted to hear her sing "Valerie", this is her newest take on that one: th-cam.com/video/J3fZlkMSghM/w-d-xo.html
Another great fan-made video of her Valerie rendition is this one. It shows various video-clips from several performances/rehearsels and even features Angelina`s younger sister Juliette

I really enjoy your reactions and analysis
Great reaction -- love your comments on her pronunciation. Very insightful. Subbed on this basis. I would strongly agree with other comments that she is not mimicking Whitney. For one thing, this performance is in the key of E (as opposed to G) b/c AJ is essentially an alto. The vocal fry is totally different. We can go into it, but to me this is a very different version than Whitney's.
Yes !! She really like Ammy whitehouseher Hair style..the voice..and the fashion ...❤❤❤
Wanda Król Andzelina to prawdziwa Artystka o pięknym głosie Gratulacje za piękno Pozdrawiam z Poland ❤💔❤🕊🍀🕊🌹🌹🌹🕊🌏
Love the squall definition 👀
Just had her concert in Norway and she would go in Japan next, but don’t know the date and she’ll be going to London to open up a Quincy Jones at his birthday. She didn’t say whatever countries don’t know the dates don’t know when they’re gonna be, but that she gonna be around the world.
My comment would be Angelina is 16 years old Whitney was 28 when she sang this imagine Angelina's 12 years from now it blows my mind
She’ll be released an album sometime this year, 2023
Great reaction!
She should
B going on tour this year. Maybe in the fall.
My funny Valentine and suspicious minds
You are missing her first original drop with Republic Records on the 5th May Love Don't Let me Go, it is really absolutely fabulous. Do yourself a favor and listen to it. Enjoy your reactions. Blessings from South Africa.
She was in Paris, France performing for the football theme, song, or soccer. I him in words and she saw him the national song of the soccer team with red ribbon is an international thing a star producer, record how do I hit records and she sung on stage she was actually stunning and she had no shoes
I meant if I have 350 million people watching you in about 10,000 in the audience and she sang for them and she was stunning
She did a song on Norway Oslo, June of the August and July 3 times live you might be able to find it on the Internet and she’s leaving for Japan do a concert. She’s pretty busy and her new album I’ll be out sometime and 23.
These kids today should grow into the best of the best and we are seeing them younger and younger. They have so much more exposure to complicated runs, vocals and rhythms than a lot of your earlier generations. They hear it 24/7 on TV, radio and internet. Theres so many great voices out there now, everyone wants to be the next Whitney even today.
Whitney had that something special that people will mimic for years to come
💗💗💗
This was really insightful - do you mind posting the audio version of these videos on audea? i like to listen more than watch and that's where I get most of my audio content.
She’s in Portsmouth New Hampshire right now doing a concert. I had tickets but I couldn’t go. I’ll give them to my cousins. They said there’s thousands of people there not feel that are any up arena arena up she said just tell me the flooding in like but it doesn’t doesn’t.
Angelica can single handedly bring back jazz.
ANGELINAS performance is clearly her own and different interpretation to that of whitneys , also the tone/ key is lower.
listen to Gabriel Henrique singing this song, it's really creazy.
Please listen can't help falling in love by Diana Ankudinova she is amazing and beautiful young lady with a contralto voice
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
A little halo action happening behind her head don't you think?
Angelina has performed ‘I Have Nothing’ three times (I’m grouping all the live versions together).
The original- th-cam.com/video/eTcvvO6B3Io/w-d-xo.html - has 14.5 million views and the live version - th-cam.com/video/AqtIVYFjapQ/w-d-xo.html - has 1.3 million views in less than 3 weeks, it is the Official version - th-cam.com/video/iX0g99jN26U/w-d-xo.html - has more than 200,000 views in three days.
Not only is the Official version the best it has the potential to vastly outstrip the other versions by the end of the year if not earlier.
I personally think the Official version is better than Whitney Houston’s version.
Whitney fans only wish she had been this talented. Whitney was great there is no arguing that but Angelina is already hands down light years ahead of just about every singer at the same age. She can already go toe to toe (voice to voice ... performance to performance) with any "all time great" that anyone cares to name. Sure some of them will have a performance here or there to stand beside her, but if people are truly honest I doubt other performances would out "score" Angelina's.
Well everybody perceives things differently
In 2 years she will recognized by the industry as the best
Do another concert in Norway, but the problem is it’s sold out no more tickets
Key 🔑 E
Japan, doing this mini concert there she opened up for Casey Jones in London at all. I read it number two in London to the first singer to sing on the platform is 85th birthday. Then she’s been to Germany. She sang I have nothing there she’s been to UK and she sang there again I’ve been there and she’s been to Australia. She’s so Mira de around the world is from what she’s gonna replace now she’s coming back to Oslo to the short interview and clever, if one of her friends and Lady Gaga‘s team quiet contact her I wanted to collaborate with her so she’s been busy and she come back to Norway she live in there and she’s gonna come back to Los Angeles California worse 11 and she goes to work at another album that’s all I know
What are 100% I’ve been for her since you start saying age 18 months yes 18 months and she never has stop
You should listen to morissette Amon. She’s like a combination of Mariah Carey, Whitney Houston, and Celine dion.
Her grandmum has shop with old stuff. I think this is taken up in there.
Sara James's new appearance at AGT is the hottest thing right now. Do not be late!
Yes I saw!! That reaction is coming for sure! I’m rooting for her to win
Reaja ao gabriel henrique e brasileiro muito bom
React to Angelina jordan cover "easy on me" by Adele pls
😎🇺🇲👍💯🌟
For me her big talent is not exactly on voice, but in the ritmus, the entonations, the colors! That is why i dont like her covering this song, she is doing like most of all, and there is others better than her covering that, but she can be Perfect in other styles doing her own!
Please react to morissette amon sing never enough and rise up acapella version with 3rd avenue please react for this coach thanks
Anything respectful you may care to make on the featured artist ANGELINA before making your pitch for another artist. Lol.
Wow, your ear for nuances is lacking. Angelina as opposed to Whitney uses much more vibrato, breathiness, and many more melismas, both ascending and descending. She also sings it at a slower tempo, with more rests between verses. Angelina has totally made this her own. Sorry, but you need to go back and listen to Whitney, and not the movie version which was heavily modified electronically in the studio, rather her live performances.
Whitney had nowhere near Angelinas diversity or talent.
I'll give you three way better covers to react to Ariana grande at the White House, Jessie j live in Korea and glennis Grace who AGT
It seems you prefer other singers !
It’s a troll…
@@rogercarriere4756 ya I know ! The give away was the word "cover" go Angelina !!!
@@rogercarriere4756 Right?! Can you imagine having nothing better to do than troll on a 16 year old girl. I almost feel sorry for the poor b*stard. On the other hand, not really!
@@Owen_S. Poor troll, working out all that punitive potty training he got in the 6th grade.
