When Adele sings, we hear her...... When Angelina sings, we listen to every word ❤
And,.... When Angelina sings, I feel her voice and her message❤️
She’s captivating beyond belief.
Angelina is speaking to your soul and it responds. It's soulspeak and she is a native speaker.
When Angelina sings, we FEEL it!
Perfect words!!!!!!
...and all I can do is watch and cry 😢
I've been waiting for this one. I cry nearly every time.
The feeling is AWE.
This is why so many call her "the song-righter".
How does a 12-year-old bring an adult to tears with a song about reflection back to your life. She's 12.
When Angelina sings, she touches your heart.
I am a Adele fan. Adele has a shrill/ tinny voice and Angelina a richer, fuller soul full voice than Adele. It sounds like Adele is doing the cover song . This a 12/13 yo child and a world wide well known artist. What more can you say .
Angelina is a Fantastic Role Model for Your Children, You are a Smart, Kind Dad ❣
Adele writes beautiful Songs for Angelina 💞😎✌️She opens her endless world of happiness for us ❤️
the sense of longing, nostalgia and sadness is palpable .. and yes regret
Adele version is like a black and white flat screen performance compared to Angelina. Angelina's is liken to a vibrant technicolor 3D performance. Adele gets the credit for the songs creation and Angelina gets the credit for making it other worldly!!
If there had been no Angelina one would know just how much this song could be improved and presented
She has the ability to touch one’s soul with her music. Which just shows us how beautiful her soul really is..we are listening with our ears but it’s our soul reacting to hers…
Angelina's voice sounds fuller and more expressive
We can feel the pain in Angelina’s voice, we feel the soul crying…Adele is good, perfect technically, but Angelina has the spirit.
How is this possible? A 12 year old girl, sitting in her living room, just jamming and blowing up an Adele classic. Heartfelt, Soulful, emotional and absolutely fantastic! Angelina is the GOAT!
Adele reaches our ears while Angelina reaches our souls.
Angelina transmite hasta mis huesos su emoción.
This was the song that made me realize that Angelina is the best singer I ever heard. And she was 12 here. Give Adele great credit for writing this beautiful, emotional song and for her own version. Angelina makes you forget that one. Angelina has so many incredible covers, but this one stands out-stunningly moving and personal.
What makes Angelina so special, in my opinion, is her interpretation of lyrics. Adele sings this and you feel her pain that life has passed her by. Angelina sings it, and she makes you understand how those lyrics apply to your own life. She makes you feel, not just hear. And she does it with a vocal style and beauty that is absolutely unique.
Adele is a fantastic lyricist.......her lyrics tell a story about her own life. Angelina is very good too.
I agree with everything you said! ✌❤😇
You couldn't have said it any better...she was so soulful and emotional!
She's reading the lyrics too. Remarkable. This may be her biggest surpassing of Adele. Much more feeling in Angelina's version.
Can I throw her tik Tok Love Is A Game into the mix?
@@kevingood4644 Yep that's another surpassing of Adele.
@@edwardsullivan5481 I only mention it because for me I find it utterly overwhelming..I can’t listen to it without crying!
@@kevingood4644 She's such an adorable phenomenon. A truly facinating human. Baffling really.
@@edwardsullivan5481 it’s as though love itself has taken human form..she’s just so full of love for us all ❤️
Angie emotes. EMOTES. She reaches down into your soul and pulls the emotion out. You FEEL it.
This soulful song always makes me weep. Love this guitarist...
She's extraordinary - and honestly, words to describe her do not exist.
I agree man she does something to you. I found her a year and a 1/2 ago after my wife died and she has helped me
Sorry for your loss. I'm not a doctor but I would prescribe multiple doses of Angelina several times per day. She has definitely healed my soul and I hope she can care for yours as well.
♥♥♥♥♥♥ Sorry for your loss ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
2d meets 3d…yep your experiencing an endorphin rush..careful..it’s highly addictive! I speak from experience!
One of the 100's of reasons I listen to Angelina everyday. Thumbs up Sebs. And have for over 2 1/2 years.
8 years and counting. Probably less than 100 days in that period I haven't listened to her tbh. That will probably NEVER happen to me with another artist. She is VERY addictive.
@@poolhallshark I did miss too poolhallshark, by the way great name, when I had covid in early 2021. But just for a couple of days. I absolutely cannot go without her voice. Thanks for sharing that with me sir.
12yo...let that just sink in! 😋 At this age she "steals" some big songs from big stars; this one, Stay from Rihanna and Born to die from Lana del Rey...
These are in my top 10 list, though her latest work are also up there..🤭🤗
I've watched that video like a 100 times, but I still can't believe that a 12-year-old sang that, live!, two takes only, with hardly any practice (confirmed by the guitarist in an interview).
When angelina sings she has complete control of her voice. She can hit all the low notes all the way to the high notes. This is what makes her a great singer.
I feel like we should give the guitar player some kudos. He's pretty amazing for a 13-14 year old.
He looks younger, but he was born in Colima, Mexico, in 1992, and this song was recorded in 2018. So he was 26. But no matter, kudos to him for magnifying Angelina's voice with his delicate playing and obvious admiration for her talent.
In my opinion, Angelina Jordan knows how to paint her words beautifully, she does better than the Original. That’s makes her genius period.
Angelina is the Queen of emotion, she had me in tears when i first heard her sing this , Great Reaction
Now listen to her cover of Stay. The same guitarist is with her in the same format. Another amazing rendition!
Angelina’s voice attacks your limbic system and forces an emotional reaction that you were not expecting. It’s the tone in her voice that does this, Elvis Presley had this same ability when he sang Gospel songs. If she ever sings Gospel songs, there won’t be a dry eye on the planet!
Adele sounded like an amateur compared to Angilina. I'm sure Adele would say the same, she has ears too. Great reaction! 😎🇺🇲👍💯🌟
Stunning!✨
Ivan was brilliant in support of her as well …🎸
Another version of this song @ 15 years more power full of emotion
Jazz and Soul will trump Pop and Rock in the Game of Hearts
Angelina draws our emotions by her voice Feel the music the understanding of the music from her spirit to your spirit
Beautiful reaction, Sebs! I saw that she hit you right in your fillings. It happens to all of us. No soulless creatures would ever want to invest time in watching reactions like this 😉
Love from Norway ♥♥♥♥♥
Angelina emotes a piece of music from her whole physical, mental, emotional, spiritual being. She isn't "performing", she is doing what "performers" are attempting to simulate. For that reason, and her vocal prowess, Angelina's versions always hit me in the gut more than other versions of a song.
Great reaction! She’s absolutely one of a kind! She is Angelic as you say!
Beautiful and expressive as Adele's version is, the emotion seems to be somehow general or impersonal in nature, whereas Angelina seems to sing to me, directly, and touch something in my heart. She communicates emotion by invoking my own. I guess that's as near to expressing it as I'll ever get. Thanks for the great reaction.
Very well said Fred....Angelina upgrades songs....never just covers them.
@@CarlD70 Or UNCOVERS them, like one once said 😊
From the dozens of covers Angelina released over the years, this is my favourite. The song itself, is fantastic, but Angelina found that particular auditory vibration that makes me tear up when I hear it. Some of my other favs are from around this time. Just the shear audacity, and humility of a 12 year old girl, siting in her living room, reading the lyrics to the side, and with only the accompaniment of an acoustic guitar...delivers a version of a song, that emotionally eviscerates the original...which is sung by one of the best female singers in the World, is mindboggling. No matter how many times I've listened, I've done so in awe.
ellen well-written comment that hits the nail on the head.
I really like your comment " delivers a version of a song that emotionally eviscerates the original" ✅️
I agree about the comparison with Adele. Adele is singing a beautiful song beautifully, but Angelina sings this song like she's telling a close friend deep, intimate, feelings about her life, and perhaps we listeners feel a little like that close friend empathizing deeply with her.
Absolutely on most of us angels top 10 list. Great reaction to one of her most soul touching songs! What is that feeling? It's Angelina!
this is at the top of my top ten AJ song list along with another hundred or so songs 😊
Agree that this one is one of my favorites of Aj's but I admire you from managing to make a top 10, I have a hard time managing a top 25 with so many to choose from :)
How can a 12 year old put more feel and soul into a song than a world superstar is mindblowing to me 😳😳❤️ Angelina is a gem and the most unique talent out there... I agree with the reactor that said that there are talents and then there is Angelina Jordan ❤️ She is Just on another level for me ❤️
Angelina won❤
She's the best singer of this era!
Angelina is a gift to the universe. I watch this video often and sob. It’s my favorite of hers. It helps me cope and accept my incurable illness. I love it so much Ive asked that this be played at my memorial. I’m in love with this magnificent being.
Bonnie, so sorry for your illness. Our prayers are with you.
Bonnie, I pray for this young lady every day because she brings so much light and joy to the world, I will say a prayer for you too tonight.
😎🇺🇲👍💯🌟
You are included in my prayers, Bonnie. Much love to you.
God bless you! Glad you have this beautiful music and the beautiful sound of Angelina to bless you too!
There are so many elements that seems to make Angelina's voice and performances so special. But I honestly believe there is a resonance to her voice that the listener feels inside. She connects and bonds with you and you feel the emotion of the song not just from the words and their meanings but from your heart and soul. Her voice touches people in a way that you are drawn in and in that performance with her. Her talent is special. Once in a lifetime for me.
Ivan Mendez was Angelina's ( 12y) guitarist in LA in 2018. In an interview with Alan Papier on his TH-cam channel, Ivan shared the story behind the cover's creation. In short “Angelina doesn't have a wish list of songs, she spontaneously decides whether she likes a song. After hearing this song she says great song and downloaded the lyrics. Ivan admitted that he didn't know this song but the melody wasn't difficult and was able to learn it quickly. “. Then the cover was recorded in one take, Angelina sang the song here for the first time according to her arrangement, without rehearsing beforehand. 💯 AJ 💯
When I heard her singing Billie Holliday song at 7 years old, it was shockingly true understanding of what she sang! All these years she gave us her personal interpretation of music, never just repeating what the best of the best
Performed...
She is a Mozart of the jazz, it's unique voice and soul
Bro I felt exactly the same way, in fact, I feel exactly the same way every time I hear her sing this song, and just about any song that she sings, this girl is without a doubt the best female vocalist on the planet, possibly the greatest of all times, and that phrase puts her in the past present and future category lol
Yep 👍🏻 no doubt. How? It seems to only intensify each time i hear these early songs. We are being blessed.
And she's a child doing this. Unbelievable!!!
That rush to the head feeling is actually Angelina caressing the soul with her voice. I said this for many years. The moment she touches my soul I feel that rush and I realize over and over again that she is a gift from god. To us all.
For me this is the version, but definitely not because I could watch her singing. My first time hearing this song by Angelina (I didn't know the Adele original) was audio only... And it completely wrecked me, that pain, that despair in her voice was even stronger just hearing it in the darkness - it was winter, I sat at my gloomy fireplace with lights turned down, with a nice glass of red wine and just wanted to relax and listen to some beautiful music, and then she came in with all her might, and I even didn't know what happened, my eyes filled with tears within seconds and I started crying like a baby, for like half an hour, listening the song a dozen times in a row, until I was able to calm down and think about what just had happened. The whole experience felt as if Angelina with her voice had torn my heart out of my chest and in the beginning it was very frightening, but then I could "see" or "witness" how she carefully mended it, taking away some pieces that were useless now and adding others that would be more helpful for the future, arranging them all in a more harmonious order and then gently putting it back, my heart, at the place where it belongs and it is needed. That was a deep and spiritual experience and since that day I have become an Angel, I had only known her for a week or so at that time and had listened to a couple of her covers, "I Put A Spell On You", "Bohemian Rhapsody", "Yellow Brick Road" and "FeelingGood", so I already knew and loved her voice, but this caught me completely off guard emotionally, only very few times in my life had one specific song such an impact on my whole being... as I said, without seeing her, so maybe that's not the reason you prefer her version, but only because in a way she is much better than Adele, and that is in conveying the true emotion in a song and making us feel it... her vibrato though... Happily I now can listen to the song without tears but a smile instead and really enjoyed your reaction! Thanks, have a great day, best regards from Bavaria! Peace and love
It's impossible to describe how beautiful and moving this performance was by Angelina. All you can do is listen, experience the beauty, and be moved.
Sebs this is Marc ( Miami)... she did this with one read through and one take! Look she's reading the fricking words off her phone. Nothing more to say this 12 yr. When she does these songs, and there are several with the guartar players, are all done with one or two takes recorded from her den at home. If you go to Alan's ch. he interviewed this guitar player ( I think his last name is Mendez ) who did many of her 12 yr covers.
To make it even more impressive: these recordings were rather informal and improvised. Ivan would come to her house, he would hang out with the family and in the evening they would quickly decide on a song, practice a little and record usually in one take. Unless, per Ivan own words, he would mess up and than a second take was needed. You can see her glance at the lyrics from time to time and get some words a little wrong.
Still despite all that, the give this amazing performance. I agree that her voice has more warmth and depth to it than Adele. I think she has a lot of natural melancholy to her voice and that fits with what you called that she turns it into a sad song.
I love Adele’s singing and she is an amazing creator of very personal songs, but Angelina makes me feel the song also more than Adele does.
If you want to see a song being transformed just by tempo and her melancholy, listen to her and Ivan performing ‘Stay’ by Rihanna.
You're not being bias amigo... Angelina's version is better and there is nothing wrong with admitting that. Also the name of that "thing" you felt is here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duende_(art)
Great, thanks! Angelina has a significant advantage with many of her covers. Most popular musicians crank out the industry tempo, but when Angelina slows it down, even a little, the beautiful emotionality of the lyrics can really shine.
Angelinas version turns ones soul inside out
this is one of AJ"s signature cover works, enjoyed by all of her fans. Love this cover.
She is hitting very low notes amazing I don't know what it is about her singing it really touches some thing in my soul. 🤔👍☘️☘️
Just incredible to hear Adele and the beauty she has and then there is Angelina , she waves her magic wand over it and creates a Masterpiece almost saying " This is how it was meant to be done " Agree with all your comments, nice one,
This is one of my favorite pieces by AJ. Did you notice she was reading the lyrics as she was singing the song? Ivan mendez is the guitarist and in an interview on TH-cam he says there was no real preparation before recording this on a cellphone. I look forward to many more favs by AJ and had the extraordinary good fortune to attend a July '22 concert in Norway. She sang 15 songs, followed by 3 encores, finishing with "I Have Nothing". Here is a link to one of the better series of cell phone recordings of this concert: th-cam.com/video/GH-mp5hCVEQ/w-d-xo.html
@stevenceo I love the one reaction video I saw were the singer simply says after listening to Angelina sing, “It’s just not fair to anyone who sings.”
Yes I did She’s so emotional and compassion while reading it how many can do that?
Angelina has an inviting soulful voice. Beautiful!
Angelina 🌟⭐️🌟⭐️🌟
Her version is just stunningly beautiful in how she’s able to ooze emotions. At age 12!
Adele is a fabulous songwriter and Angelina is a marvelous musical storyteller. Put the two together and you have beauty and truth. For me, Angelina brings truth to everything she sings, and whether or not she's experienced the specific story in the lyrics, she knows and conveys the underlying emotion, with a golden wash of hope. I think it's just who she is, making every song feel like hope.
She’s the best.
If you can, please react to her cover of Mount Everest.
No words for that!!🥰🥰🥰🥰
She sang it during one of her last concerts in Norway.
You can take the video version of big Angie fan.
The sound quality is one of the best.
Awesome reaction and it isn't being Bias, it's fact, she brings more Emotion on any Cover that the Original Artist conveys! She is The Queen of Emotion and in my opinion of also Music, God Bless!
One thing I always feels when listening to Angelina is how she not sing for us, She sings to you, you, you....and so on. All songs feels personal. If now anyone understand what I mean
Angelina Is better!!! Always!!! Su profundidad, su oscuridad, su emoción, su raspy voice....lo siento me gusta Adele pero ha llegado quien la supera y no es algo malo.
I am like everyone else love Adele. I saw Angelina years ago on you tube and fell in love with her. She definitely is an old soul in a beautiful girl. I loved watching your reaction to her there it put a smile on my face.
Did you catch the expression on the face of the guitarist? He's smiling like "I can't believe I'm sitting here." He was interviewed by a TH-camr who exclusively covers Angelina Jordan. The family would have the musician sit down and just chill out for a while and talk about songs they like. Then there would be a brief introduction to the song they had selected and then BAM right into recording. No big prep, no extended practice. Sometimes, Angelina would be reading the song AS SHE SANG IT. Musicians love working with her.
Hi, Sebs! Thank you for another excellent reaction to Angelina. I think the word you were looking for is "expressive" when you were talking about the way she delivers emotion. For me, it is the conviction she has in her voice when singing. In reality, she doesn't just "sing" a song, she "lives" it. This is especially apparent when she sings:
I know I'm not the only one
Who regrets the things they've done
Sometimes I just feel it's only me
Who never became who they thought they'd be
I wish I could live a little more
Look up to the sky not just the floor
I feel like my life is flashing by
And all I can do is watch and cry
I miss the air, I miss my friends
I miss my mother, I miss it when
Life was a party to be thrown
But that was a million years ago
A million years ago
The regret in her voice sound very real.
Everybody feels the chills! You have to listen with your emotion, with your soul!
Befuddlingly good. Just read through the comments here and on any of her videos or reactions to her videos. I hope we are all able to allow her to be a teenager and a regular human. We put her on quite a lofty pedestal, and rightly so- but it makes me understand her song 7th Heaven all the more...
Angelina absolutely shows so much more emotion than the original and Angelina 12 years old with this beautiful rendition! Absolutely a favourite, great reaction thanks 🙏
Love the way Angelina goes back to a kid when she says Bye at the end and gives her little giggle. It Warms My Heart ❤
Adele's is beautifully done but no where near the emotion and soul emitted by Angelina.
A guitar and her amazing voice. Nothing else needed. At only 12 years old.
Is Soulmotional a word? Soulful and emotional?
It IS now 👍😉
Amen yes I'm using it hey "Webster's" listen up there is a new word in town.
Her name is perfect... she has an angelic way she injects her own soul into her music. It just flows through her. How can you not be in love with her and her music.
Angelina is very special and remember that English is not her first language.
My mind and ears appreciated the beauty of the Adelle version. But my body got chills with Angelina's version. They are just playing around here, too. This is not a polished, prepared performance, and yet my whole body feels the goosebumps. You get the emotion with the Light, with the sense of being connected to the whole of humanity and human experience. All of it. 💜
She can emotionally relate to what she is singing about and each word she says is respected and felt by her internally and she shares that with us.
Wow incredible got that lovley jazzy Amy sound
🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤
Incredible, breathtaking voice 🖤
Angelina makes you feel what she is singing. Adele is awesome and I love them both
We are drawn into her voice, and hang onto the words! Bravo, Angelina! ❤️
Angelina doesn't need to sing FULL VOLUME to underscore the emotion of the lyrics . Soft, thoughtfully sung, she sounds as if her heart is brimming with sadness and remorseful... She's giving the original version it's place, but she's giving the LYRICS theirs... She almost weeps them... This youngster elevated her performance way beyond the original artist. Just sayin'😉. That feeling is being picked up and carried into the situation the lyrics describe...
And then she instantly comes out of her rendition with her child smile, wave and cheerful "Bye!!". She kills me 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
This girl is a once in a generation talent. Beautiful voice, amazing singer.
The expressions on Ivan's face are common. He mentions in his interview w/ Alan Papiere that he would sometimes lose his place in the song because he was so entranced by the beauty of Angelina's singing. Almost all of the songs he recorded with her were done in one take, just spur of the moment. And if they did require a second take, he said it was invariably his fault, that Angelina almost never messed up. I agree, to me Angelina's performance is just more soulful and packed with emotion.
Angelina’s version is so soulful, so earthy🌷
Great reaction to Angelina.🎼💞🤗 I totally agree with you!!
Angelina just puts more emotion and passion into the song that make you feel the words at such a different level.
It's very difficult to describe what you feel after listening to her. Here's a word you can check out - duende?
Keep coming back to this. When AJ sings it, every single word comes wrapped in pain and emotion. So beautiful
Duende music, It's the only way to describe this angel!
Angelina owned this song. She's phenomenal!! And you look like Jimmy Fallon!
Cool watching you dig into angelina jordans years of content, so much good stuff there , if you can check out Faouzia stripped versions of Bad Dreams or Live at Burton Cummings Theatre live concert with no audience it won't disappoint.
This young lady has an incredible ability to communicate emotion through her voice. She is a true artist. I look forward to seeing and hearing what she has in store for us over the next few decades.
