Thanks friends :)
Just watched it. I encourage all to watch it. Excellent!
Bloody brilliant video cobber
Love your singing voice. Beautiful an excellent work.
I tried to provide you with a link that shows you how she is on top of what she does but I think some kind of a spam filter may have blocked it because I cannot see it, at least for now. You will see her talent if you wait or look. "Portrait of a child" in this system.
@@ASSamiYT I tried the same. I was blocked too.
"Portrait of a Man" was being adapted as a song of her own because Angelina changing the lyrics.
She had just turned 9 when she did this. It's a stunning performance for a child. She's called the girl with 1,000 voices for a reason.
BRAVO!!!!!!!!!!! Well said!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes true that voice makes cry Goosebumps
This recording made when she was 9 years old has over 6 million CZcams views and is still #60 on the iTunes top 200 jazz singles after 4 years since it was posted in 2016. I think that says everything we need to know about Angelina as an artist. Yes, at that point in her career she was mimicking, but she mimicked Billie Holiday, Etta James, Ella Fitzgerald, Nina Simone, Elvis, Frank Sinatra, and Amy Winehouse, just to name a few, and over a 5 year period starting when she was 6 she was able to develop that mimicry into her own unique style. Now she is a master class artist at the tender age of 14, that’s unbelievable! Try considering what it took for a 6 year old child to mimic and emote the emotion of Billie Holiday!
I appreciate all the information Darrell. I totally agree with the passion this young lady has! I really just wanted to understand how that happens for someone so young. Recent Grammy winner, Billie Eilish never attended public school. Homeschooled always. Her parents were struggling actor/musicians and allowed Billie and her brother to create anything from art to dance but mostly music. Both young ladies are gifted beyond words. I would guess it's partially what they were exposed to from such an early age and given the freedom to express it. The names you gave for comparison were also spot on!! Thank you!
@@mamatrop I've always felt that public education has a way of squelching creativity for the sake of conformity. Many creative artist are either home schooled or have gone to schools that support creative endeavors. As you said, Billie Eilish was home schooled and given many opportunities to tap into her creativity. Angelina went to a school that helped her develop the skills that we see today, and was in a home that nurtured her creative efforts and exposed her to a variety of artists. The conformity we see in Angelina comes from mimicking the artists that she admired and wanted to sound like. And remarkably, she was able to do that with so many artists that some refer to her as the "girl with 1000 voices". But as we saw on AGT, there is only one Angelina, and she now has her own unique sound. Looking forward to the release of her new album, which should be out any time now.
Yeah, we all learn through mimicking until we find ourselves :)
Darrell, mimicking? Really? Educate me! I always thought that Angelina never mimicked anyone, even at a tender age. I never saw in all the videos posted on CZcams anything ressembling, even at NGT!
I suppose i was in the wrong all this time. To me, mimick applied to her constitutes an offense to her reputation. Mimicking, in my mind, was a circus act, like what Marcelito is doing, whereas covering is signing, not imtating, in the manner of, as a form of a tribute.
Why the hell should she mimick with her unique tone and emotional interpretations.On their best days other artists can sound a bit like Angelina and only on their best days!
I got a spell on this kid, since I watched her music 2 yes ago. Angelina Jordan fan forever!!! Thank you Caleb.
I am very happy that you are doing all these reactions for our golden girl. Because let's face it. She is pure gold!!!!!!!!
Angelina´s performance opened my eyes to jazz, this song made me listen to the real old classics, a wonderful world of music poring out of the speakers everyday now......lovin it

Spain Jaw-dropping performer my 14-year-old girl and a cold stone amazing Voice So powerful Show me cold-stone
This performance is a masterpiece of interpretation and delivery. The band is unbelievable too. Coming from a ten-year old, it's ridiculous.
9 years when she did This song
She wrote 3 different songs from 11-12. What Is Life (jazzy song on Angelina's life), Oslo (ethereal tribute to her country) & Shield (tribute to her protective family with a James Bond feel). Each is totally different from the others. Now that AGT-C is over she plans to release a new album of originals that she has been working on since she moved to L.A. Her 2018 album "It's Magic" is amazing & has been selling OK until recently. Since her appearance on AGT-C, sales have gone through the roof & it's # 1 or 2 on i-tunes jazz album sales. Her use of AGT-C to introduce herself to the American audience was brilliant. Thank you Simon for unwittingly boosting Angelina's career on your totally rigged "talent" show.
totally agree and as for simon - GREED is one of world's deadly sins and you can not fathom how many fans of this precious young lady and her family have you firmly at the top of their shit list. ENJOY IT !!!
To my knowledge, Caleb, you are the only reactor to Angelina on CZcams who listens to her so attentively and with his eyes. With his ears too, but that is a given, with your headphones on.
Her voice is striking, stunning, very out of the ordinary, mature, powerful lungs, yes so much voice and breath control for her age, so many vocal skills, jazzy sound, no doubt, at 3:01, no one can teach her that, eyes, head inclined, arm in the air: this is singing and acting with an attitude, like you say, with grit! At 9 years old? Nina Simone, putting a spell on her lover? Yes, go girl! But a child, and she is credible? I never heard one reactor, and they are many, gloating about the incredibility concerning her choice of songs or her gritty attitude despite her lack of emotional intelligence.
Did you see when the music is playing, how she feels happily the music in her body, how she moves her head (and not clapping with her hands) to follow the rythm, how relax she is as if she is doing naturally what she does effortlessly. In the last part of the song, starting at 5:26, i see that you are getting excited by the roaring and the screaming: she got you mesmorized like she got all of us. This is the miracle of Angelina Jordan!
Her second classic was performed in 2017; she was 12, in a live concert at the Proysenfestivalen, singing a cover to James Brown s iconic song This is a Man s World. Would you react to it and, if so, could you have in hand the lyrics. They provide the perfect mean to observe and appreciate how her diction often changes the pronounciation of words, expressions or, even, of an entire line to give the color and the ornementation that the song needs . She did the same recently at the AGT: The Champions with the song Goodbye Yellow Brick Road!
She already has to her credit three originals (Oslo, Shield and What is life) and one semi original (A Song for A, on a poem by Robert Burns, the music having been composed for her by the russian musician Nico Cartosio.
She is going mainstream now with an electronic dance music called Above the Water.
Even at the tender age of 9 Angelina could already scream and growl in perfect pitch.
The band is actually her own, and the musicians are well known professonal norwegian musicians.
she is an unbelievable song writer and author. she read from her journal about meeting a shoeless girl who she gave her shoes to and it was inspirational and unbelievably mature for a 6 yr old. she has written "shield" , "what is life " , "back to school" a rrewrite of "rehab" , and "oslo" . all are personal and the lyrics to "what is life' might b the prettiest lyrics ever. has an original all jazz album reaady to drop....stay tuned...great analysis and thanks.
Thanks, I look forward to seeing it :)
It was a Screamin Jay Hawkins version she did there. And that version is untouchable even to some pro singers out there who are 3 or 4 times her age. But damn sure Screamin Jay Hawkins all smile up there listening to this wonderful talent.
It's a bit amusing to me that when Angelina holds up the photo of Hawkins wearing his witch doctor makeup for his performance of this song, almost no one knows what it's about or comments on it, let alone appreciates this is Angelina's tribute to him.
@@benm5221 not all people knew bout the Great Screamin Jay Hawkins maybe... I myself got to only knew him after digging a little after watching Angelina performed this. I mean the guy is crazy good and my first reaction is how the hell Angelina knew him. Lol.
@@ulyseslabajo lol. Whoever exposed Angelina to American legends had great taste...I didn't expect many people to recognize the photo or him inspiring Angelina's cover. It's that no commentors wonder outloud about it. They wonder about and comment on her bare feet, hair style, colorful clothing...but when she deliberately shows viewers an obscure photo of someone, no one bothers to ask or inform?
I think she did a better the Jay, and I like her version better than Nina Simone's, but that's just me. Angelina Jordan, Screamin Jay Hawkins, and Nina Simone
, three greats the will be cherished through the annals of time.
Most people on this world has to think about, what IS 3 or 4 times 9 .
I totally agree that hearing her original work is going to be really exciting. Great analysis and explanation of the different use of the vocal chords. Very satisfying to hear your reaction. I love this performance of hers.
Angelina has written and recorded 3 songs, "Shield", "Oslo", and "What is Life", she also has an original called "Song For A" and is a featured vocalist on the TRXD song "Above the Water".
She is amazing. I just saw her for the first time on AGT and she was 12 and blew me away. But this performance two years earlier wow!
What a great talent she is.
Great talent That only America refused to admit it ,, ((
@@user-bp8qu7wh5i Maybe America refused (AGT) but this American and many thousands more know what a treasure and sweet, beautiful soul is Angelina. I adore her. I have never said that about anyone before except my family and closest friends.
@@user-bp8qu7wh5i AGT-Champions is not America and does not represent America. Simon Cowell is British. And, the winner this season was a group from India. Last season it was a Canadian. You seem to have a problem with facts when they don't represent your world view.
Angelina is an example of someone who innately has that jazzy sound. It 's either you have it or you don't but Angelina has it in her spine. It is interesting to see how at such age of 9, she knows when and where she can make her voice loud, big then swingy and smoothy at the same time. And true enough, she has been writing her orginal songs since. This girl is a complete package.
And hey! Congrats for your Reverse, repeat! Nice one.
So true! Thank you so much, glad you liked it :)
That was an amazing double tone on the "oohs". Low growl with a high overtone..damn.
The cup she's holding up is the actor who originally sang this in an unknown movie
@Van Ford It's not a cup it's a candle. The picture is Screamin' Jay Hawkins who wrote and first performed "I Put a Spell On You".
I was 12 years old in 1964 when I first heard “I Wanna Hold Your Hand” by The Beatles. After listening to that and the flip side of the 45 RPM, “I Saw Her Standing There” hundreds of times, I literally remember feeling an electricity in the air that something was changing in our world (as much as I could at age 12). I am 68 now and, after listening to Angelina Jordan sing, I feel that same electricity once again. We know the impact that The Beatles had (and still have) on the world, and I truly feel that Angelina could be as influential as them. She is destined to be a superstar!
I’ve watched a lot of reaction videos, and Caleb’s choices of where to pause are so smart. And his commentary is so informed and illuminating. I also love his positivity. You sense he loves what he’s doing and it makes his viewers enjoy it that much more. Great!
Great reaction Caleb, loved it. I think I’ve watched ALL that Angelina’s done, I just love music (I have eclectic tastes) I think she’s unique and from you and all the other reactions I’ve watched I’m satisfied with that. She’s written 4 songs herself and is known for arranging the covers she sings so that they remain covers but sung only in Angelina’s unique can style. A million miles, shield, what is life and 7th heaven are her own. Her latest Adele cover “all I ask” is AWSOME
She wasn’t 10 here, she was 9, which makes it even more amazing!
I rarely comment but I feel compelled to say how much I like your reaction videos. I've been watching quite a few recently and they seem to fall into 3 categories: emotional, insightful or over-acting (putting it nicely). The first is rewarding in it's own way, especially for true fans, but it also creates a feedback loop which distorts reality. It's great to see your genuine emotions as you are surprised or impressed but also your passion for how it's being achieved and giving viewers a better understanding of why it's so impressive. Really great work. Thank you.
I completely agree. I really dislike those reactors that just act emotional or surprised, trying to do what they think will get them more likes. Honest reactions and emotions can be nice to watch even if they can't explain why. The best are both emotional and insightful.
Thanks so much. Yeah I couldn't do things like that for views. I made this channel to make and share about music, so for me keeping that honesty with music is very important :) Glad you enjoy it.
people reacting to angelina does get a lot of views.. i binge on reactions to her, just to understand why I am so moved by her.. and I agree, your channel has the best reactions to her so far, very insightful, thank you!
Hello Caleb. Thank you for another kind and informative reaction to this wondrous talent. She does have a few original songs of her own that you may enjoy reacting to. Shied, What is Life, Oslo, and Above the Water. I came across this talented, beautiful soul several years ago thanks to CZcams. I have now discovered a new talented and sweet soul in you. Love your song, Reverse, Repeat. Your vocals are amazing, You are a very talented young man. Your cover of Dimash (SOS), awesome! Looking forward to listening to more of your music and more reactions from you. Blessings!
I look forward to hearing her songs. And thank you so much. I am so blessed to have people listening to my music, I appreciate you doing that.
Can I just mention the beautiful hypnotic arrangement. She's actually involved in the composition of her music, and even wrote some originals. Here's a video illustrating here involvement in the arrangement process.
czcams.com/video/0CPjgZxc2qM/video.html
She also plays piano, guitar, violin, and flute. She's even published a book, she is officially the youngest published author in Norway. I know some very accomplished artists that have not achieved half of what she has. The reason she performs barefoot is because she met a young street merchant in India that didn't have any shoes, so she gave her her own. She vowed never to wear shoes while performing until every child has shoes. She is one beautiful amazing human being. A can't wait to see where her career takes her. I can't stop listening to this girl, I think she put a spell on me.
Wow, she's so good and cool since then.. My first time hearing her sing that kind of song... More jazz❤️❤️❤️.
Rusty Shackleford is a fan who keeps an up to date list of her utube songs with links. I suggest saving it to your playlist and you will allways have all her stuff whenever you want. czcams.com/play/PL2v8kgVeo4EbQD6l_WAVjOfItquzW7oEc.html
Based on the Screamin' Jay Hawkins original version. That's his photo on the cup at the beginning. See his appearence on the Arsenio Hall Show for some of those vocal choices.
Thanks, I didn't know that :)
love your reaction... did you know she has written and preformed some of her own songs? Shield, and Oslo is 2 of them.. love from Norway 🇳🇴
I'll have to hear them! Thanks :)
Every ending has a tiny little sweetness which you don't want to miss. Love your reaction!!!!!!!!!!!
So true!
I've been around for a while, and I've seen a lot of kids do a lot of things... but this is the single most impressive thing I have ever seen from a 9 year old.

Really appreciate you sending the links. I'll watch them :)
Such an old soul! Is that more mimicry from hearing it, or just pure talent? Unbelievable! Think of really young singers of the past, who could do what she does? So cool.
I think both! Mimicking is how we learn when we are young and developing, there is nothing wrong with it. The fact she can make those noises and sing so well so young is unbelievable talent! So I'd say both, but as she gets older she will continue to develop her own style more and more :)
@@CalebColesMusic I never knew that Angelina was mimicking, like Marcelito is doing by imitating perfectly the voices of others. Sort of a circus act. Angelina never tried to sing like, she covered their songs in their manner, to pay them a tribute. If i m wrong, then i must delearn and relearn, painfully.
Not wrong mate.She rearranges every cover this is not mimicry which by definition is an exact copy.
I apologize. I wasn't trying to detract from Angelina's artistry at all when using the word "mimic". Caleb has kindly offered this as his classroom and truly enjoying the lessons. (Check out the Microphone Technique lesson as well as the insane range of his covers, and then his latest heartfelt EP)
Rather than ask if Angelina's mesmerizing talent was achieved as a toddler was more nature versus nurture, perhaps ... reiterate, recreate or anything rather than mimic should have been the description.
Reaction videos on musicians are certainly plentiful and I have seen many different ones since Dimash graced the world with his "VERSION" of SOS. After seeing a few other vocal coaches offer everything from opinions of the planet from whence Dimash originated to accusations of autotune, or beautiful, tearful and speechless expressions; Caleb's first reaction was one of my favorites. I learned that a true voice teacher can admit that he may be unsure how those sounds are happening, then explains physiology of the vocal instrument as well as a whole slew of descriptors (mechanics, dynamics production, onset, pure tones, vocal fry, compression, breath control...) of the sound being shared in a knowledgable polite and respectful way. Refreshingly valuable and easy to understand.
@@CalebColesMusic I'm so very sorry I used that word in my question. Please forgive me and know it wasn't intended to cause men to be so angry. Their unkind comments have no place on your reaction video. Sad day when folks argue about the word mimic. 😔🙁
I think she was still 9yrs. old here. The little bit where she was writing down notes on the play-sheet, and then her conductor reading it with a little smile, this was normal. She has had a hand in arranging her music since she was young like this. As she has learned music theory and her knowledge base has grown she has no problem letting whoever needs to know, just how she wants it done. She is always kind about it, but she is also a bit intractable. The candle has a picture of Screamin' Jay Hawkins on it.
It's funny a lot of the vocal coaches that have commented on this took great lengths to warn of the long-term damage that kind of growling might cause. I appreciate your responses because you always say how the song mad you feel, which is something we can share and connect with right away. Then you get to the technical, which is greatly appreciated. Some of us will only be able to grasp a portion of your knowledge so getting to your feelings first makes this a nice partnership.
If you ever run out of things to watch there is a 12 yr. old Welsh girl named Gracie-Jayne Fitzgerald who was on The Voice Kids UK. She made it to the final four, and should have won, but a young competitor had lost his Mom and since the people vote on the winner. Anyway, Gracie has been singing for about 17 months. The song if you're going to listen to one, should be 'Many Rivers To Cross' and listen to the reactions from Danny, sorry I do not know his last name, as she sings this song. See if you agree with him about how she handles this song. Her coach is Pixie Lott. Jessie J is also on the show and said of Gracie, "you are one of my favorite singers here, and that she is a force to be reckoned with." I think I've bothered you enough. I also think I my have recommended this girl before, hey I'm old it happens.
Thanks for the info :)
Ha, ha ha!!!, I ramble when I write to Caleb as well!! And then apologize for taking up his time!! But, your words are very wise!!! I enjoyed the read!!
You're bu far the best reactor ever Caleb! You explains thing in a understandeble way for us ignorant! Just love you!
She arranged everything - instruments to how she wanted it performed. She's so talented
Listen to your song and it was incredibly nice. You have an incredibly fine vocals. I really mean that. You need to call Angelina so you can make a duet. 😊😊😊
Thanks, so glad you enjoyed it !!
I greatly enjoyed your breakdown and evaluation of Angelina’s performance. In fact I enjoyed it more than any other professional music producers or voice coach’s evaluations I have seen. You give a very straight forward, honest, unbiased and articulate evaluation that is devoid of personal prejudices or pre conceived ideas or notions.
I'm an Angelina Jordan addict ,and I just love the way you react to the ( barefoot Princess) songs ,it's like hearing it for the first time all over again, thank you for reacting
I had heard she was 8 when she sang this song or 9 like another said but the subject of this is deep and I heard this when I first found her and just said SHE IS AN OLD SOUL-they are singing through her! The growl!!
She is one of the best!!
Thank you for your reaction and explanation of how she sings.
Congratulation !!!! You now get spelled . You are now a fan forever ;)""
First of all you have to see the Original by Screaming Jay Hawkins to understand what she is doing.
She wrote this musical tribute by her own turning 9, all lyric and musical setups are from Angelina worked out together with her with own Band.
I really don't know anyone in this age who get a own band and has this musical understatement.
Her range is absolutely outstanding for this age. So its easy for her to make each song to her own .
There are over 120 songs more you can enjoy so take your time and relax by he music.
Best Chris
Amazing. I will have to hear the original :)
@@CalebColesMusic Here it is..he's almost been forgotten, but was an under-appreciated talent: czcams.com/video/orNpH6iyokI/video.html
@@stevek5332 I personally prefer his studio recording czcams.com/video/82cdnAUvsw8/video.html
It has none of that theatrical nonsense with coffins and sculls, just his untamed raw vocals and to me it seems to be the recording that's inspired Angelina in her rendition.
@@CalebColesMusic czcams.com/video/7kGPhpvqtOc/video.html this is the original black whit version she made her tribute from
Chris Bach...
You have written one of the best comments to Angelina's video rendition of Screaming Jay Hawkins's version of "I Put a Spell on You" that I have read to date.
And I have read lots of comments on her covers and original songs.
A new category should be added for an artist making their own versions of classic songs like this one and many, many others by her.
Most excellent.
Absolutamente increíble!! Es una locura el talento y la voz de esta criatura!! La música la eligió a ella! Son esos Milagros que suceden cada tanto..
Awesome reaction to Angelina!!!! I look forward to your next reaction to her. God Bless from Lakewood, Washington USA
Thank you so much!!
She is only 9 in this song. She also arranged the song and the band. They all admire her so much and call her the Boss.
Great reaction. Angelina already sing three original songs. Shield, Oslo, and What's life. Always them witm jazz influence. She too already make a test with a song im still holding you with 10 year. Just this song can make a big success. Her capacity to sing anysong and give life is incredible. There are a electronic music that she sing too. I think that good songwriters can make wonderful partners with Angelina.
I'm not sure she needs partnered up songwriters, with her talent I wouldn't be surprised if she pulled that one out of her hat perfectly by herself. After all she rewrites lyrics to suit her on a few covers, and have done her own arrangments for years. She is writing music everyday now, working on her new album hopefully being released this spring.
@@Haakonisak i know that she have a great capacity to make her songs. But for example. Shield is a nice song, but dont make a lot of success yet. But when you look I'm still holding for you. Will make more success. Cause this i think that she need to do this. The biggers singer always made partners choice great songs. Angelina is a singer to great songs.
Everything in this video is simply outstanding. From the rattle of the super-8 projector and the candle with Jay Hawkins to the ending scene where she puts her hand to the chin and seems to be saying "Hmmm... that wasn't too bad, but I bet I could do it even better". The musicians, the arrangement and of course Angelina herself, all of it is way above any scale I know of.
_p.s. There are rumors of a not too far away album release from Angelina with all original songs written by herself._
Wow, I'd to hear album of all her own original music :)
No rumors. Angelina announced this herself!
First saw this two years ago and thought it must be the most original thing I've seen in some time. In all the arts! Still think that.
No rumors. She confirmed it live!
@Advanced Driving Me too 👍
As someone has already commented on this being a Screaming Jay Hawkins version ,you could tell it was going to be before ever started from the picture on the candle. Such a great song from the original artist and song writer. no one ever seems to cover it with the intensity as this cover.
Great Angelina Jordan (born Angelina Jordan Astar on 10 January 2006) is a Norwegian child singer, of Iranian ancestry, whose audition for the 2014 season of Norway's Got Talent at the age of seven, singing "Gloomy Sunday" in the style of Billie Holiday, became a viral video online, and led to worldwide press coverage.[1][2] She went on to win the competition (at eight) with her performance of George Gershwin's "Summertime". Since then she has worked to raise millions of dollars on behalf of environmental causes and children's charities around the world. She always performs barefoot, after befriending a young shoeless girl while traveling when she was six years old. Jordan wrote a book about the experience and became the youngest published author in Norway.
After Jordan's performances of two Billie Holiday songs, "Gloomy Sunday" and "I'm a Fool to Want You", on Norway's Got Talent, as well as "Fly Me to the Moon" on a TV talk show, all went viral online in March 2014, she was featured in Time,[1] Daily Mirror,[2] People,[5] and other news outlets around the world.[6] She continued in the competition singing Nancy Sinatra's version of "Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down)" live in the semifinals,[7] and won with her performance of George Gershwin's "Summertime", in the style of Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong's 1958 recording of the song.
In September 2014, she performed "Fly Me to the Moon" on the US television show The View,[8] bringing her wider fame in the United States. She also performed on several TV 2 programs in Norway over the next few years, including multiple appearances on Allsang på Grensen (Singalong at the Border, referring to the border fortress of Fredriksten where outdoor concerts are held) and on TV4 in Sweden.
Jordan had a small guest role in the final episode of the Netflix series Lilyhammer, playing a girl who sings in a bar.[9]
In December 2014, she realized a personal ambition by performing for Peace Prize recipients Malala Yousafzai and Kailash Satyarthi at the Nobel Peace Prize Concert.[10]
Jordan's recording debut, the three-song maxi-single My Christmas, was released in December 2014.[11] To support the release, Jordan performed the songs on multiple TV shows, including an appearance on Christmas Day.
In 2015, Jordan began recording music that would eventually be collected on the six-song Angelina Jordan - The EP, released on 27 November 2017.[12] Many of the tracks were posted to her official CZcams channel[13] well in advance of the EP release, in the form of music videos and lyric videos. These included her covers of Screamin' Jay Hawkins' "I Put a Spell on You", the music video for which was directed by Per Heimly, and Amy Winehouse's "Back to Black", in which Jordan sang her own original lyrics. These two music videos became the most popular videos on her official CZcams channel, surpassing 5 million views each by 2020. In 2017, she created a second CZcams channel specifically to present performances of cover songs.[14]
In November 2015, Jordan published the book Mellom to hjerter (Between Two Hearts), illustrated by her grandmother, Iranian artist Mery Zamani.[15] The book tells the story of her meeting a poor motherless girl in Asia who has no shoes. After a long conversation in which they discuss their dreams in life, she gives the girl her shoes and the girl promises to pray for Jordan to fulfill her dream to become a successful singer. According to Jordan the book is based on a real incident which she cites as the reason for always performing barefoot.[16]
In April 2016, Jordan performed "Fly Me to the Moon" on the first season of the noncompetitive children's talent show Little Big Shots.[17] A year later she performed "What a Difference a Day Makes" on the UK version of the show. She also performed "I Put a Spell on You" on the German edition of the show, Little Big Stars, in 2017.
In December 2016, she performed on Alan Walker is Heading Home, a live concert broadcast from Bergen, Norway, where she sang Walker's songs "Sing Me to Sleep" and "Faded".[18]
On 15 June 2018, a full album of recordings with Staff Band of the Norwegian Armed Forces (Forsvarets stabsmusikkorps), called It's Magic, was released.[19] The next day, Jordan and the band performed the full album live in a concert attended by Norway's Prime Minister.
On 27 June 2018, Jordan performed "Fly Me to the Moon" for Quincy Jones in The O2 Arena in London, as part of his 85th birthday celebration, and also joined with other singers to perform "Man in the Mirror" to close the show.[20][21]
In 2019, Jordan performed for former president Barack Obama and other public figures at the Brilliant Minds conference in Stockholm.
In October 2019, she competed in the second season of America's Got Talent: The Champions, which was aired in January and February 2020.[22] Her first appearance on the show, singing an original arrangement of Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody", received a "golden buzzer" from judge Heidi Klum (meaning that Jordan would pass directly into the finals). As with her Norway's Got Talent audition six years earlier, a video of Jordan's performance began to go viral on CZcams, quickly reaching 10 million views.[23] The performance also garnered praise from Queen's official Twitter account.[24] Shortly afterwards, the video was taken down[23] and Jordan released a studio version of the same arrangement under her own copyright.[25] Jordan's second performance (in the finals), a similarly reworked "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road" based largely on a version by Sara Bareilles, was also well received, but she was not among the top 5 acts.
In August 2020, Jordan's manager (her uncle, Michael Astar) announced that she had signed with Republic Records.[3] Her first single on the label, "Million Miles", was released on 6 November 2020, on all major digital platforms.[4] An official lyric video was posted to her official CZcams channel the same day.[26] The track was produced by the Norwegian duo Stargate, who also co-wrote the song with Jordan.[27] She has since released two additional music videos for the song: one showing her singing the song "live" in a recording studio, the other an "official music video" featuring her younger sister.[28][29]
Personal life Edit
Jordan was born in Oslo, Norway, and has lived for extended periods both there and in Los Angeles. She also lived for a time in the Middle East. She has a younger sister who has been featured in two of her music videos. Her father, Gerry Christian Slattman, is Swedish.[30] Her Norwegian mother, Sara Astar, is the daughter of Iranian artist and poet Mery Zamani and a Japanese father.[31][16]
Jordan attended the Oslo Waldorf School and participated in the Oslo School of Music and Performing Arts after-school program, where she received vocal training. In addition to singing, she plays the piano, violin, guitar, and flute, and also paints.[32]
As of 2020, she is living and going to school in Los Angeles
As of 2019, Angelina Jordan’s estimatednet worth is $9.4 million .
Angelina Jordan (born January 10, 2006) is famous for being pop singer. She currently resides in Oslo, Norway. Vocalist best known as the winner of Norway’s Got Talent in 2014, at the age of nine. She published her first book, Between Two Hearts, in 2015.
Angelina is BOSS! And thank you for this review. Iv'e been sold out on Angelina all day everyday since her first audition at NGT. I love how she sings each syllable and interprets each word one by one? So glad that the world is getting to know Angelina at last. Looking forward to future reactions of Angelina. Stay safe and be well blessed!
Great genuine reaction man!! and the fact that you're a singer and songwriter and be blown away like that by her true talent is just recomforting and it just feels that you're totally being honest and I can tell by the way you smile at almost the entire video says it all, now become one of us fans.
You should really check out Angelina Jordan singing Bang Bang and Nothing Breaks Like a Heart! ❤️ Goose bumps...
Fantastic I’ve watched her since she was one and a half years olds
Just listened to your outstanding performance. Excellent ! Regarding Angelina, the things that have always fascinated me about this arrangement were that she is young, has only limited exposure to English at this point and how in the heck did she ever find this version ( the original ) and so masterfully mimic the nature of this awesome song. This is probably still my favorite of her performances but there are now maybe 20+ very close second choices. I think you hit it on a previous review, she hears more accurately than almost everyone and can almost mimic the whole sense of the song. Thanks for another excellent and informed review of our angel.
Thanks for watching. I look forward to seeing more of her.
I m still hesitating in the use of the word mimick applied to Angelina. I wait to see how the experts will justify their case. To me, Marcelito is mimicking, like in a circus act, Angelina covers in the manner of her idols, but she never tries to sing like them.
@@jacquespicotte8886 Replicate is perhaps a better word but in no case do I imply any negative to either. She is beyond amazing to me and the mystery of her talent is something to ponder. I have settled on - she hears music; voice, emotion, tempo, meaning and all nuances and then her brain mulches what the ears heard and she then sends her version out through her own voice. sometimes almost note for note with the original (Mimic? Replicate? some other word) other times completely different style, pace and arrangement. Literally always amazing in my view.
@@roberttague9729 Yes, i agree with you about the process im which she operates. It is just that mimick means imitate, copy as a tool of learning and is derogatory, almost offensive, in the case of a child who never did such a thing. The word, as applied to Angelina, should be banned from our vocabulary for reason of ignorance or misunderstanding and used for Marcelito, as the best compliment we could give him: he sings exactly like the singers he imitates. Angelina is never a copy of her covers. How could she, when she sings a song as an homage, a tribute to Elvis, to Frank or to James Brown: she cannot sing like a man!
Angelina Jordan, rocks! Has a great voice. Love her voice
Thank for doing this reaction to Angelina Jordan. She was barely 9 years old in this video and she is just an amazing young talent.she has wroted three songs herself and have two original songs that others has wroted for her.
Did you notices the 2 vibrato speeds in the same word "care" at the end ? amazing
She has written songs such as SHIELD.
I love your reactions, you have an infectious smile,and when you smile you also smile with your eyes. thanks for explaining some of the singing stuff, so that us that don't know what certain notes or tones are .Great job Fan from USA
My pleasure 😊! Thanks for watching.
I love the moment at the end, she is thinking about her rendition which way she could make it better. Because a good artist is really never satisfied with his work.
Very true!
I think you are right about the song writing thing. She already has several of her own songs. But the way things have been progressing, my feeling is that as a family they have a very definite plan and it is going to be about 4-5 more years before the "breakout and there will be a full scale album of her own material and watch out world
I'm interested to see how they go about that :)
Angelina is 9 years old here.
Wow. My mistake. Even more amazing!
It's an easy mistake to make, thinking she was 10, since her video was published on youtube in Sept. 2016, and there haven't been any "official" announcement from Angelina about the recording date. However, most people who compare her voice and appearance in this video with other videos that are more absolute in recording date seem to agree that it was recorded almost a year before the publication.
@@YozhikvTumane Makes sense! I can't understand how she could do that at that age.
@@CalebColesMusic Yeah, it really makes your head spinn when thinking about it. I heard you mentioned something like "in the amount of years she's had to practice" (or something similar). The first recorded _sing along_ ever shown to the public was at 1½, mumbling the words to "I will always love you", but already at that age she's nailing the pitch in that "...love yoouuuuuu", seen here as part of a news feature in Norwegian TV czcams.com/video/VJjG68Dfr-8/video.html
I guess from that moment on she's been practicing har vocals in one way or another.
@@petrieberries I'f you're referring to the article in VG.no with the title "Trump ville ha norske Angelina (10)" , it says that she *_published_* it the same week.
"Denne uken har Angelina lansert en ny låt, hvor hun ønsker å vise en litt ny side av seg selv. Hun har nemlig valgt å gjøre en versjon av rockeklassikeren «I Put a Spell on You» av Screamin Jay Hawkins"
_Angelina has launch a new song this week where she wishes to show a new side of herself. She has chosen to do a version of the rock classic "I Put A Spell On You" by Screamin' Jay Hawkins_
This article does not mention when it was recorded.
Great reaction and analysis. I really enjoyed and agree with you. She is really amazing. If i may, i suggest you to have a look to Angelina's " i am still holding out for you" a leaked demo of a song she will never sing again in public because of the lyrics. Cheers
I will check it out. Thanks :)
Good reaction.
She was born with a gift, no way you could learn this.
I envy the luck of the youngest like you, who has a lifetime to fall in love with Angelina and her voice
That high pitched swealing thing was an inhailing wheeze lol... she manages both notes breathing out which more SINGERS do, and she makes sounds and notes breathing in...
This is the best reaction video to Angelina Jordan, thank you
Love.She's amazing, unique and so natural!
Breathtaking!i!i! She ties up the end of each word with a ribbon!
Angelina is a diamond. I listen to your song, wow, I like it a lot. Congratulation. You have to listen to Aurora and to Sigrid. Two very different young talented singers from Norway. They both have fans from all over the world and they deserve even a lot more attention. Two girls who not play on sexappeal. Sigrid is fun and Aurora is emotion. Start with Auroras «the Seed» or her concert live in Nidarosdomen, and Sigrid from one her live show singing «sugarpunch».
Thanks so much. Appreciate that :)
Aaaaannd she sang: diamonds are forever...... stunningly. ...
This one is for shure a peak in Angelinas performances since 2014. But then, her level of any performance of hers, is so highly leveled that any peak will not be abel to stand out that much. She is in the master level what ever song she takes on. She will be big, and there will never be to much of her stunning voice and singing abilities. Thanks for your very good reactions. Keep them comming.
Great reaction 👍 😀. She was bearly 9 years old when she did that one. This is magic and will be highlighted later when she gets older and world superstar 😉.
Can't wait!
Angelina has three originals out there,written when I believe she was still 12 years old....(correct me on her age if I am wrong).
Appreciate it!!
Caleb, first of all congrats on your new EP. I’m anxious to see you grow and develop over time. Knowing little to nothing about music, I’ve really enjoyed opening up to this new area, for me, of learning. How much better than to learn from this lovely young prodigy. I’m so excited!
I appreciate that! Thank you. I also look forward to seeing Angelina's future :)
Only just turned 9.Shouldn't be possible,no cracking or loss of pitch.Bloody amazing.
Excellently done evaluation. You are one of the best.
Appreciate that!!
fine analyse !! ouverture d'esprit!! bravo, savoir d'ou viens, l'histoire, cet important pour comprendre!!
It is amazing, this pretty little girl in her beauriful dress, and comes out a such mature voice. Love it. Mmmmh
I do love it, even though it is not my most knowledgeable genre :)
Her soul-stirring interpretation of Nancy Sinatra's shot me down, and Ella Fitzgerald's summertime on norway's contest show were exceptional. Her beautiful version of Billie Holiday's gloomy sunday and I'm a fool to want you are worthy of mention as well. This girl is extremely talented❣ I've been a fan since she was a bit younger....
BTW, Sir, I like the way you react to a performance- very professional.
I used to like watching a new reaction to I put a spell on you , but lately you can tell when people have already watched it ahead of time. It's hard to Pretend like it's your first time. Like knowing about your surprise birthday party and trying to Pretend you didn't know. !
I don't think you need to worry about Angelina's future. She is unique and has got it all. Soon will she come out with an album of originals.
She has proven her artistic capabilities again and again by arrange /rearrange the music - she always do things in her own way. She simply paint with her voice and do things like no one else.
Already as she was 12 years old she came out with her own original songs/ music: Shield, Oslo and What is life.
She has also gotten music specially composed for her. That was done by the Russian composer Nico Cartosio. The text is from an old poem by Scotish Robert Burns. The song is named A song for A. It is simply endlessly beautiful. Please react to all the mentiioned.
In this video that you played now was she barely 9 years old.
I love watching this song from Angelina, i especially enjoy watching the reaction of the reactors for this song. You can always see they have had Angelina's spell put on them. Great reaction, i subscribed. Enjoy the journey,.😊🌏
Look up Soul Lavee and watch his reaction to I put a spell on you. It is priceless.
She IS PHENOMENAL 💯💯💯
Insane she's only 10 here! I love the little bare feet moment! You have a great point about when she loses the "little girl" aspect people are drawn to. I bet she can write amazing lyrics, with attitude and style.
I HIGHLY recommend listening to Caleb's EP. There's something for everyone!
Here's a link to one of her originals, Shield. Looking closely at her choice of words, I think she demonstrates more depth, especially at her age, than many have given credit. Others have likened it to a James Bond sound. czcams.com/video/lQtUbVKb0vs/video.html
Thanks, I look forward to hearing it :)
She writes her own music already... has some cool songs already... check out "Shield"
thank you for good comments, you know what you talk about. Great performance, she is amazing.
Because of AJ i love to hear jazz song
From norway. Love
Angelina is AWESOME! We love love looooove her ♥♪♫♪♫♥ And she is 9, not 10 for this song.
To caleb Coles. AJ was nine years old when she rang I put a spell on you.
You make excellent points. Extremely valuable critique you gave here. Thanks.
As many have already informed, she do have her one originals. They are great.
This was Angelina's own arrangement of the Screamin' Jay Hawkins cover of this song. In the beginning you see her handing her instructions to the band leader. Angelina is known, even from a young age, to participate completely with all aspects of the performance. In rehearsal, she will stop to correct musicians, and if able (like with piano) demonstrate what she wants or expects. I don't think, even at age 14 we have seen Angelina's complete genius yet. A truly amazing young woman destined for greatness! BTW, you mentioned songwriting. Angelina has 3 originals that she wrote at age 12. "Shield" with an intentional very James Bond feel czcams.com/video/lQtUbVKb0vs/video.html "Oslo" czcams.com/video/R2HkKh_Cp8I/video.html and "What is Life" czcams.com/video/Bv0r77KN7RA/video.html
I love Angelina and have listened to this many times and noticed something recently. I am interested in the significance of her switching mikes at 5:37 to about 6:18.
They probably were just experimenting with different ways of recording to get the best performance and best footage. Most likely the audio is all from the booth footage rather than when she is in the live room with the band :)
@@CalebColesMusic Thank you.
I like how your expression changed as the song progressed...from "cute" to "serious"
Great comments brother. One of my favorites.
Original "I put a spell on you" by Screaming Jay Hawkins
Angelina Jordan 9 years old
Great reaction and analysis. She's such a joy to watch and listen to.
