All you have to know is that she wanted to sing for Simon Crowel when she
was 3. Her mom told her she was too young for the show's policy but she
was fearless, even at that young age, and ask yourself how many child singers
would sing totally a'capella on a national contest like Norway's Got Talent at
any age, much less 7?
As far as I am concerned, this is history in the making. I feel so blessed to be able to watch this angel grow her gift.
A star in the making. People talks about god given talent, pero there is a lot of hard work to reach the level that Angelina has. Talent does not hurt, but this girl works very hard, she is dedicated and she has a soul as big as the universe. God bless her.
Something that I love about this one is how it shows that, even though Angelina usually gives the impression that what she does is completely effortless, the truth is she has put in a LOT of work to make it look so easy. Something else that is impressive is that even a video that shows some (very rare) examples of her struggling, is still something that I can listen to over and over. I would really like to hear the final result of this one after she practiced it a few more times. I would bet that it was flawless by the time she turned 10 ;)
Struggling, or learning?
IMO, this performance is just about the best-ever illustration of the difference between perfection and excellence.
Obviously she's working on this song when it was recorded. But that focus she showed in her face... That's the face you don't want to disturb while working on something.😅
I recently watched a video of Angelina at the age of 6 performing on stage: words escaped her memory, the pronunciation was off, she wasn't "in the pocket" - but she stayed laser focused on the sentiment, the mood, the color, the story, the emotion, the motion of the song and portrayed them perfectly. She doesn't sing notes and words, she paints a picture.
Like watching a painter add and scrape paint while working on a canvas.
I'm so glad Angelina shares her practice sessions with us. Says a lot about her good character.
👩🏻🎤🎵🌎⭐️🇳🇴❤️ Thanks Valerie! One of Angelina's many endearing qualities is her willingness, and fearlessness, to share rehearsals, playful informal performances, and unpolished works-in-progress with her fans. I really enjoy watching them because they give us a glimpse into her creative process, and her incredible powers of concentration and focus. With Angelina it is clearly about the art and the music, not her. She is the Intrepid Queen of Jazz!
@9Ballr, you are so right. This is too precious not to be witnessed by her Angels. No one on earth starts out perfect, she almost did.😍😍
Thank you for a fine reaction, Valerie. As Angelina never disappoints me with her performance, you never disappoint me with your well reasoned analysis of her performances. I'subscribed the day you discovered Angelina and have watched all of your reactions to her - 24 unless I've miscounted - and in every one I learn something new.
Everyone who has watched and listened to Angelina knows that she is fearless; incredibly talented and hard-working, consistently honing her craft but for me what stands out is the confidence she has in herself as a human being. There is no other person I know who is so willing to permit the upload of so many personal videos to public gaze and be comfortable about it. For this we must give credit to Angelina's family. They recognised her unique ability when she was very young and have never wavered in the support and love and protection they have given to her. This, together with Angelina's wisdom in recognising that the decisions they made on her behalf were wise ones. There is a saying I remember from my own youth. "He is so sure of himself that he doesn't mind people seeing him 'warts and all'". Describes Angelina to a "T"
Not bad for a practice performance in her living room with her grandmother filming, and at only nine years old
Exactly!
Nine year old Angelina’s self discipline and focus is exceptional and admirable.
I've never heard this song by Angelina I thought I had heard all 132 of her songs thanks for finding this
Even when u are not a singer like me just by watching somebody singing and playing the instrument in the same time u can realize how hard it is this is even hard for adult pro singers great reaction as always darling 🙏🙏👍👍💙💙
Even in learning mode she still gives it the level of emotion that pulls us in. It’s so genuine. She has a beautiful soul.
I love hearing Angelina playing the piano. Like true jazz artists she can play by ear it appears to me. When she has got piano playing sorted she will be magnificent.
This isn't easy to sing, so she did very very well at such a young age!!!
Agreed, except that age has nothing to do with it. Hard for anybody to hit. She's not done with this song by a long shot. I only hope someday I get to see her sit at a real piano and sing this live.
Nobody knows how beautiful it will be by then but it's fun to imagine. 😁
You're so right Valerie, that's how the PROS do it, just correct n move on...😍...loved it and it's so precious to see our BAREFOOT PRINCESS working on something that will be so beautiful once she masters it💖💖💖
She's what ? 10 years old ? magic !!!!!
It's a month before her 10th birthday.
@@kroft6799 SO, she is really still only 9 yo, unbelievable.
I just love when you react to Angelina. It's always interesting to listen to what you say. Thank you. Take care, love from Norway. 🇳🇴
Wise child. That's the word. I believe her force of intuition and imagination has been activated since early ages. That's why we often see her convey emotion that can only be seen in adult performance. You should see and react to how Angelina sang If You Go Away.
You can see here her seeking out the appropriate embellishment. She seems to have an instinct for what works for her and what she wishes to communicate. BTW - AJ's cover of Sam Smith's "I know I'm not the only one" is my absolute favourite of all her covers. It is simply magnificent.
She's really a genius artist.... love her❤ great reaction ✌
Is Angelina a prodigy child?
The writing on the wall
Thank you for your reaction and insights.
She, and her grandma Mery Zamani were both child prodigies. Grandma's was in art and poetry.
Still, you now can see where she inherited that DNA from.
Thank you for your reaction. It was very well explained.
Thanks for your informative reaction, great to hear intelligent comments instead of the usual rubbish. I love your comments on Angelina's mic, 'road tested', made me laugh. Can't wait for more Angelina reactions, keep them coming!
Love this. A 9 or 10 year old playing a complex song, singing at the same time, learning the music, the lyrics, and the piano, and recording that for us. Fearless, rightfully so.
Just love it!❤😎🇸🇪
Bravo Angelina ♥♥♥
Thanks Valerie ! I love Angelina and I love your reaction to her efforts. I feel like I learn something in each of your reactions. Love that she let us see her in the process. So many of her live performances have been spectacularly perfect, I wonder how many hours she worked on Bohemian Rhapsody and It' A Man's world as just two examples.
I love watching a star in the making.
She looks very young
Almost 10 years old...
Thank you for a great reaction.
To me it sounds as she is arranging the song to her style a bit. I appreciate being a lo to be a fly on her wall.
Nine years old !!!! Period.
Amazing!
Thank you for another thoughtful reaction to the Barefoot Angel. I enjoy Angelina's rehearsals because she is not afraid to show us how hard she works to improve her singing capabilities.
Thank you Valerie for insights and your sense of humor, 'road tested' mics. Lol
Jimmy Bond innit
Great reaction! I'm not familiar with this song either. I'm glad you let us know this was a rehearsal, and you didn't criticize for missed notes. Love your perception, thank you.
I love the little videos with their rehearse at Angelina you get to know a completely different side. Angelina performance on stage or in the TV shows always look so easy and effortless just perfect. In these videos Angelina shows how hard and disciplined she really has to work for her success, of course her huge talent is also helpful. it is admirable that Angelina shares these moments with her fans. 😷✌️😷💯 *AJ* 💯
❤️❤️❤️❤️👣 A true professional even as a young child. Astounding.
song from a James Bond movie... suits AJA tone/vocal ability
By golly, there’s a lot of good talent showing up currently among young singers. But, Angelina seems to speak to so many of us directly and deeply. She shares with us her God given gift of insight into our collective hurts and sorrows. I enjoy so many different brilliant female singers, but to me, Angelina surpasses everyone. She can technically do it all, but she purposefully chooses only what is required for conveying the meaning and emotions of the song. Her empathetic sensitivity clearly shines brightly.
Looks like she is 'learning' how to sing this song in this video. I've never heard her sing it before and this was probably 5 or more years ago. I haven't seen any other recordings of this song and that is a shame as she would be great doing this song in public. Thanks for your showing this and reacting to it!
Just subscribe to your channel for lots more Angelina Jordan reaction. Thank you. Smile.
Thanks for the sub!
Angelina is the real OG!
Absolutely love these little behind the scenes Angelina videos showing us a creative genius at work at 9 years old. Just amazing to watch. Thank you for sharing this one Valerie. Most of the time we believe that this young prodigy just steps up to the mike and sings beautifully, (probably a lot) but then we see her working at her craft and understand why she is so fantastic.
I always enjoy your reaction/reviews, especially of Angelina! A lot of her CZcams videos are rehearsal quality, and yet they are enjoyable to experience. As a music teacher I am sure you have dealt with young students who give up too easily when learning to sing or play an instrument. So I appreciate your commentary, especially of Angelina, whose learning habits are there to see for all and inspire others to follow!
👍😊❤️
She is a.gift to us, that is all I need to say
Great reaction .to watch a child work all a pro to perfect her craft is just amazing .thumbs up on your professional analysis 👍
Great reaction. Here we see the hard work that Angelina puts in to develop the final version that we expect to see. No fancy tricks, with Angelina most of her best performances are in live concerts (often open air), perhaps each time a subtly different interpretation, this is why we can listen to so many performances of the same song, but get something different out of it each time. I hope, when the pandemic is over, that we can get to experience more concert performances, and who knows, attend in person...
This was the theme song from the most recent 007/James Bond film, "Spectre". She recorded "Skyfall" in her school's studio at age six a year before performing on Norway's Got Talent. That recording is on CZcams along with Tom Jones' "I Who Have Nothing" and Christina Aguilera's, "Hurt" all at age 6. She was born with a Lomborghini voice and was learning how to master it. Watching her face you can see the dedication/concentration on mastering the song. She is a hard worker but she makes it, in the end, look effortless. Your reactions are thoughtful and from a place of knowledge. Thank you.
I love Angelina. Hear Faouzia and John Legend - Minefields.
this is learning...more of a "HEARSAL" than a REHEARSAL.
Has to be so hard to both learn song on a piano at same time as learning the melody of the lyrics and the words/positioning/timing/emphasis... I could see myself as such an artist (right...LOL) but learning the song/piano first, maybe then while humming the melody and emphasis... THEN, once piano is down, THEN tackling the lyrics WITH it. She does both at once.. no time to waste. Imagine development of a NEW ORIGINAL... Making it sound right from the get-go with no template to work from.................... Takes trial and error and decision making all the way through.
thanks so much!
Sorry, this will have nothing to do with this great reaction. I really think you’re a wonderful person.
I have watched a number of videos with Angelina playing piano and have never seen any sheet music. I believe she plays by ear. Can anyone confirm?
I've heard that she participated in a prestigious music program in Oslo. If that's the case, she would have learned how to read music and music theory (chords) there. The best pianists can read music and also pick things out by ear.
@@VocalSplendorStudios Valerie many thanks for your reply. I understand Angelina started receiving vocal training at age 4 at the Oslo School of Music so it would make sense she learned how to read sheet music. Angelina's cover of Wicked Game is probably her best performance while playing on the piano.
She plays piano on her haunting version of Wicked Game. Never heard her do this (and I've listened to every reaction I could find). Always enjoy your reviews.
Nice reaction.. maybe you the other song from sam smith she covered..it is i know i am not the only one
Val, I see a young Angelina practicing a new song for the first time while singing, playing the piano, and reading either the sheet music or the lyrics. I tend to lean toward her reading the sheet music since she was visibly being careful to play the right notes and cords. Seeing Angelina struggle a bit to learn the song I wish I had 1/100th of her musical ability.
Hi, Valerie! She was working on at least three quite different songs in this session. I suspect that while she wants to get the piano portion right, her main focus is how she wants to present the vocal portion. This is where and how she works out her songs. A year or so later she was doing the same thing with "Wicked Game". There are three videos of the session. I believe this is the best (least distracting video, the audio is the same in all three). For me, this is the best cover of Isaac's song, including the OG, that I've heard. czcams.com/video/5IAMF4FDfw4/video.html
I agree with you. It has been my favourite performance since it was released. Although there are others creeping up the ever-changing "Favourites" list.
Thanks for your analysis of what was a "discovery, fault finding and review" of what the video shamelessly brought to me.
Most people want a finished product. I don't. I remember slaving over a solo performance. Usually, alone I drilled relentlessly. By the time my choir director arrived it was pass my bedtime and time to pack it in. My kindly and saintly mentor would always have a beautiful way of praising and admonishing me in the same breath. Now I watch this young girl "walk the walk", and I get goose bumps as big as eggs. Only Angelina can tell you how wonderful it is, not just to master a song but a single word or line.
I agree. Working through music is almost more fun than perfecting it to perform.
Finally! 🧾 that Angelina is human! Now I can show the skeptics. Seriously, so beautiful ❤️.
What a pro. All I can see is how hard she works on her craft.
You nailed it.
Thank you once again.
I hope I can someday go to a concert and see her sit at a real piano and play this. Delightful to imagine how beautiful it will be by then.
Lov eyour reactions, Valerie :) And Angelina always amazes with something. Followed her since she showed up in NGT.
Have you heard Angelina Jordan - Song for A ?
You should do Sammy Davis Jr. - Mr Bojangles (live in germany 1985)
This is the main score from the latest released James Bond movie, Spectre.
Interesting to see her rehearsel. Not at least with your insightful comments, thanks!
You'll find "I Who Have Nothing" similarly interesting. One of her first studio sessions (at age 6), AJ flubs a couple of lines in the middle -- but you would never know, because she covers it so well. From the conversation between AJ & the sound engineer, I believe this was her first take (and, of course recorded in a single take), so there was no post-processing like auto-tune (just echo & reverb on her mic, which you'll hear when she's speaking).
This is certainly not a great recording (e.g., it's using cellphone audio rather than sound board output, and the video is very dark). Nevertheless, you can definitely get the sense that Angelina is a prodigy in the making. This YT video is here: czcams.com/video/RjQZKBpVaes/video.html
She would have been 10 in a few days. Geez!
It seems that Angelina uses the piano to learn covers and also to compose her originals.There is a video where a keyboard player wasn't getting exactly what she wanted with Crazy,,her grandma Mery told her to show him and she did precisely and effortlessly,several years older than she was here.She also looked a bit frustrated. czcams.com/video/byCE8uZucr0/video.html
I love Terry Lin's cover better than Sam Smith's!!! Terry is a good friend of Dimash's!!!
By the way, Floor Jansen has posted a cover 'Oblivion- M83'
Thank you Valerie! Very interesting reaction. I like your technical comments. As you said you like suggestions for other reaction videos. Do I post them here or is there another way to contact you?
Please kindly react to Morissette latest single “PHOENIX” official music video
Angelina shows such vulnerable courage in allowing us to witness her process in learning this piece. Taiwanese singer, Terry Lin, does a lovely version of this song! czcams.com/video/QxNegMVT4xU/video.html
This just shows that she doesn't need the music.
Angelina is the songstress of feeling. Good . I also like your Amira reactions. Both young singers get many reactor's attention. Less attended is young Laura Bretan. She is a phenomenon of vocal sincerity and passion. Please consider her for your reactions. Here's three of her best in my estimation . 1. her outstanding rendition of a Romanian traditional song 'Lie, ciocârlie ' (DEAR, LARK), arranged especially for her voice by Romanian musician Vali Boghean. LAURA BRETAN : czcams.com/video/YimuqSeCCIs/video.html - ...the lesser seen one of two video versions of this performance . Also 2. arranged for her by Israeli pianist and composer Giora Linenberg - ADAGIO - czcams.com/video/LqwLDLRlTaQ/video.html ...There are also live versions of this. And, 3. remarkably, singing in Hebrew- Jerusalem the Golden - (Yerushalayim Shel Zahav) - czcams.com/video/IWheAW7uh-k/video.html - in which her rendition is absolutely riveting.
Plesse reacr to Angelina Jordan, "Song for A"
I always love your comments, Valerie, you are on top of reactors to me for your intelligent knowledge you bring. 😘
And this Angelina's working session shows two main things:
you have to work your talent otherwise it vanishes and you have to love what you do;
Angelina's choice is once again over a Bond song theme; visibly she has a special attraction to Bond songs, starting with Skyfall czcams.com/video/Oc50HiItEu0/video.html at an early age of 6, in another interview she sang some notes of Goldfinger and here a cover of Diamonds Are Forever - czcams.com/video/9RGZRg9YH3k/video.html finishing with this one you reacted to from Spectre (here by Sam Smith) czcams.com/video/8jzDnsjYv9A/video.html
Opera Rock. From Spain please. React to Camilo Sesto: Getsemani ( live 1977 ).
Pls react to swedish band Dirty Loops, rock you.
Thanks! Great to see this clip of the artist at work! If you're interested in really seeing Angelina's focus watch this video in which her little sister is all over her! Again 2015 and AJ is 9 yrs old (Her birthday is 01-10-06) czcams.com/video/q-esPeHV_gE/video.html
Valerie, you really need to listen to her Wicked Game, by Chris Issacs when she was 12. czcams.com/video/5IAMF4FDfw4/video.html I've recommended it to you before because it is a master class in the use of negative space. She is playing keyboards while singing, but you only see her playing a couple of times in the video, but no mistakes & it's hauntingly beautiful. She said she went to her "Music Corner" to play around with the song & this was the result, the best version I've ever heard, including the original. BTW, great reaction for this rehearsal & she was only 9 yo.

I like her performance better than Sam Smith's. He spends too much of the song in his head voice. I like the head voice as an embellishment, something to add texture, not a main feature.
I agree I like it better
Sam Smith is original
I think you have some of the best inputs of all the reaction video people ...but the sound of the artist is always terrible. You should use a headset or something. Now the sound sound like it comes from speaker in your room.
That''s interesting. I am recording my reaction videos with original sound from a third party software. In this instance, the original sound wasn't the best.
@@VocalSplendorStudios Yes, but many of the other reactors is able to keep the sound from the original. When i lissen to your reactions i often stop to find the original first to hear the true sound. But yes in this case the sound was bad from the beginning. It´s hard for me to know what causing it, but if you compare the sound with others am shore you be able to here the differnce in quality. Thanks for great reactions!
