My favorite hobby in the entire world is watching people react to this specific video of little Barefoot Princess, Angelina Jordan. I love watching reactors faces, their responses, the amazement. Thank you so much for your reaction.
Another spell was cast by 9 yo Angelina. Let’s analyze the video: 1st you see how small and cute she is. 2nd you see she is barefoot (story below) 3rd You see her making her “Wish List” of suggested changes to the song. 4th the band leader taking note of the changes. 5th Angelina is holding a candle with “Screemin’ Jay Hawkin’s (original artist 1956) picture on it. 6th the old soul in her voice. She is the youngest published author in Norway. Angelina wrote and her Grandmother illustrated a book about why she sings barefoot. She was on a trip to Iran where her grandmother is from and met a street girl weighing people for money. Angelina sat and talk with the girl. Angelina asked the girl what she wanted to be when she grew up and the girl replied, a Doctor but that it could never happen. Angelina told her to never give up hope. The girl complimented Angelina on her shoes and Angelina noticed her scarred bare feet so she gave them to her, and the little girl told Angelina she would pray for her every day. Angelina sings barefoot to this day to remind the world that there are still children in need. All book proceeds go to charity.
Hi Harrison this is the most requested video by Angelina out of the hundred and forty CZcams videos that she has put out why you ask because it demonstrates the impossibility of a 9 year old little girl doing the impossible
All her covers are her own arrangements and it is said that when she signed with Republic Records it was under condition that she was given 100% control of everything Angelina.
This beautiful young lady with the voice of pure gold, writes, arrange her music, speaks 4 languages, plays the piano and has signed with Republic Records with full control of every aspect of her music. You have to listen to the song she wrote called 7th Heaven, such a beautiful song. The bottom line, you can’t go wrong reacting to any cover Angelina has done. What a mesmerizing voice, she brings me to tears!
The Bare Foot Princess Angelina Jordan...The Prodigy. It is a place where you will be shook at the talent for every cover (140 +) with six originals and today she is only fifteen. A solid journey of nine years of watching a world class composer. All of the major talent in the world today know who she is. She has just not fully come on the scene but the explosion is anytime soon.Very protective family. I enjoyed your reaction and look forward to watching more. Welcome to the Angelina Jordan Rabbit Hole. Hang on its a great ride with the girl with a thousand voices. Angelina just dropped her first official music video 3 days ago of her original Seventh Heaven. Be careful not to confuse with the studio version and other personal versions. This only gets better for your ears and soul. ENJOY!!!!
A musical prodigy, Angelina Jordan sang for the first time at barely a year old, and she never stopped. The Los Angeles-based 14-year-old singer and songwriter amplified her voice around the globe, racking up over half-a-billion CZcams views, just shy of 2 billion Facebook views, and praise from Time, CNN, The BBC, and People. Along the way, she performed for world leaders at some of the most influential events in Europe, appeared on European and North American television, and quietly enraptured a growing fan base. In 2020, she brings a soulful signature sound to life with her Republic Records debut. The breadth of Angelina’s soulful and deep alto vocal delivery showcases a rare class of musical aptitude that you would attribute to an old soul, and legendary talent, well beyond her years. “I feel like I’ve lived many years more than my age. I feel like music found me. I want people to get connected to my music and my lyrics and to share something special with the love I have for music." Angelina went from belting out Whitney Houston’s “I Will Always Love You” to immersing herself in jazz at five-years-old. She discovered Ella Fitzgerald, Frank Sinatra, and Louis Armstrong by combing jazz playlists across CZcams. At eight-years-old, she won Norway’s Got Talent with a viral rendition of Billie Holiday’s “Gloomy Sunday.” Labels and producers feverishly sought her out, but she already possessed a clear picture of what her path would be. Taking her time, she opted to carefully hone her voice through countless hours of practice, gigs, and writing. “It was really great, but I knew I wanted something bigger,” she admits. “I didn’t want to jump into it until I felt I was ready.” She got “ready” through a series of historic performances. She graced the stage of the 2014 Nobel Peace Prize Ceremony and delivered an emotionally charged rendition of “What A Wonderful World.” A year later, she wowed an audience at Brilliant Minds in Stockholm. Touching down in Seoul during 2017, she joined a powerhouse bill alongside PSY and Norah Jones in front of 40,000 people at Muse In City Festival. Quincy Jones personally invited her to perform at his 85th birthday at London’s O2 Arena. Every time she took the stage, she was notably barefoot, which remains one of her signatures thus far. “A long time ago, I was traveling with my family, and I met a young homeless girl with no shoes,” she recalls. “She was barefoot, so I gave her my shoes because I really wanted to help her. Today, I sing barefoot as a reminder of all the kids in the world who need help and support.” Along the way, GRAMMY® Award-winning production duo Stargate [Beyoncé, Sam Smith, Rihanna] reached out, and they initiated a fervent creative partnership together. She continued to write lyrics, compose on piano and guitar, and record. Catching the attention of Republic Records, she inked a deal with the label in 2020. Now, she formally introduces herself on the single “Million Miles.” With lyrics exclusively penned by Angelina, her robust delivery sails over sparse piano on the verses as the track builds towards a sweeping refrain, “We’re a million miles apart. It’s pulling my heart." “Million Miles” is about losing someone you really love,” she explains. “This song is very personal to me, because I had never felt the feeling of losing someone before I wrote this.” With more music on the horizon, there is more of Angelina’s captivating voice and songwriting in store. “I hope you feel connected to the music and the stories behind the songs,” she leaves off. “Love is the most powerful thing though. That’s the message.”
From Iowa, USA; OK, WOW ❗🤗🌹 1. An important thing to remember about AJ is that she refused to sign for a record deal through AGT and they relented and invited her to sing anyway. 2. AJ is currently signed with Republic Records. 3. AJ began singing at 18 months. Her grandmother was a jazz/blues fan and played that genre of music for AJ. She fell in love with it very early on and has even arranged most if not all that she sings from age 8. What an incredible talent. 4. Currently in 2022 she is in her mid-teenage years, stands 6 foot tall and still performs barefoot. The backstory of her encounter with the homeless girl she met while she traveled with her family through Iran at age 6 includes the weather damaged bare feet of the child she gave her own shoes to. 5. The reason she performs barefoot is to bring awareness to her public of the children worldwide who can't afford shoes of their own. She has raised millions of dollars for clothing including shoes for those unfortunate children. 💕 6. AJ sews her own clothes, (the cloth is designed by her grandmother). 7. We all hope to enjoy her performances for many years to come. 8. BTW I'm 80 and have been involved privately in music since my age of 7.
Angelina is 9 years old on this performance. She is singing the Screamin' Jay Hawkins (1956) version whose face is on the candle she held in the beginning.
Thank you for reacting to the diamond vocals - The Norwegian singer (Now based in LA) Angelina Jordan is a young living legend. When her record label (Republic Records) , family and herself want it, they can just push the button. Many people forget that she is only 15 years old today because she is so mature for her age. No need to hurry, I'm sure Angelina has good people around her. I think everyone on her team including the record company (Republic Records), slows down a bit with marketing her. She is so good anyway, so she can not be ignored. She delivers music that lasts, and not music that lasts for a few weeks as plastic hit. Angelina has over 600 Million Views on CZcams and over 2 Billion Views on Facebook overall on her videos. Angelina won Norway's Got Talent at the Age of 8, and has been producing masterclass level vocals ever since. The only and regular marketing is done by the fans via CZcams. All the important top personalities in the western music industry know who she is and what she can do. In just a few years I know that we will see great things from Angelina. If you need to identify who she sound like, I can tell you that she has 1000 different voices to choose from, depending on the song choice and type .. It's Angelina.
Angelina is one of the most addictive singers I have ever listened to, & one of the very few, that can pull you right into the song, making you feel, every word, every note, & every emotion. ❤️💙 I always have this feeling that Angelina is not only channeling some of these late great singers, but that they also pass through her, when she is singing their song ❤️💙 A rare beauty, in every sense of the word ❤️💙 If there was ever a reason to believe in something greater than ourselves, or reincarnation, Angelina Jordan is it ❤️💙 Loved your reaction!!! ❤️💙 ***RIP SCREAMIN JAY HAWKINS***
Dude, hold on. I've been on the Angelina ride for two years now. Her voice is pure pleasure to my ears. She's got great control and her larynx is another instrument keeping it all warm and grounded. It never dulls, diminishes, still astonishing. Your life just changed
Harrison, I might point out, that she studies at the music academy Oslo since age 4 (on her own insistence). She studies all genres of music including opera. When the Oslo academy could not add more knowledge, she moved to LA to finish school and academy there. Very soon she will be finishing Highschool.
Almost anything she recorded when 10 years old is a good place to see the evolution of her style and ability. "Feeling Good" (either of two videos,) "I'm still holding Out For You," or "Back To Black" (where she rewrote the lyrics the day before to make them more suitable for a girl her age.) 2016 was an amazing year in Angelina's career. But they all are, aren't they?
She actually arranged the whole song, including the band, she does it for all her recording's. They all call her the Boss and really respect her. Love her she is amazing. Enjoy your reactions. Blessings from a Gran in South Africa
Angelina is a once in a few life times singer IMHO. She is a role model and my favorite human also. Angelina the genius was born to sing and will surprise at every turn. Thumbs up Harrison.
When god made Angelina he must put an angel in her soul. If this blow your mind you should see her first studiorecording at 6 with the song "I who have nothing". I feel so blessed to have come across here talant.
Yes, Angelina still had a tiny remnant of a child's voice in this at 9, but by the time she turned 10, a well respected vocal coach at Vocal Splendor Studios (Valerie), said she had reached Master Level Vocals & could be a vocal coach herself. Since she signed with republic Records last year at 14, she has released 5 songs, 2 originals & 3 covers. All 5 are mind blowing!! Million Miles is an original song written about the loss of her beloved grandpa & 7th Heaven is an original jazz song about not giving up on your dreams. The 3 covers are by legendary vocalists &, IMHO, all 3 are better than the originals. That may be hard to believe, but check it out They are All I Ask (Adele), Heal the World (Michael Jackson) & When You Believe (Whitney Houston ft. Mariah Carey).
Great reaction dude,, I've listen to this about 50 times now an I still think I'm on drugs everytime,,lol,, it still gives me mind BLOWING brain trauma,,👣🌬🌎
Angelina has always shown the trait of challenging herself.. and consistently delivering! This one is no different. She does things with a song (not for her sake or to "show" what she can do but for the message of the song) that few other can do.
Progression: Fly Me To The Moon aged 8, Feeling Good aged 10, Stay aged 11, I'd Rather Go Blind aged 12, How Great Thou Art aged 13, Million Miles aged 15. How about that? And if those don't catch your fancy, she has others.
This was her production. The notes you saw her handing to the band manager were the changes she was requesting of the individual band members. This is one of the reasons she is 'branded' as a child prodigy. The band members affectionately call her 'the Boss'. She arranges the song AND the music.
The fact that she holds true to her promise of performing in front of a camera barefoot and on stage barefoot really impresses me as well. A lot of famous singers I am not sure if they would be able to do that. If anyone has seen her performing even in cold weather, she goes barefoot then as well. It is truely an inspiration to see that as well. Her singing has every single record company trying to get her to work with and sign with them. She is amazing. I think the reason she has been working with yhe record lable she currently works with because they allow her to do stuff such as compose the arrangments and such. If you notice in this video, she is constantly looking at the band, and I think she is doing so to see if they are doing what she wants done to perfection. She is a little boss at that. She commands the room without being overbearing and that is why they respect het in this aspect I think.
I think she is straight up doing her own version of Screamin Jay Hawkins,.. like verse for verse. But what comes out are her own amazing talents at every turn. And that finish is a standing ovation. WOW!! is right!!
Her cover of Adele's 'All I Ask' to hear her now and to further blow your mind 'I'm Still Holding Out For You' is a must. Honestly, anywhere in Angelina's catalogue is amazing.
How about.....Diamonds are forever.... Outdoor concert, amazing vocals, great atmosphere. Wish I had the link. Someone will help please. Angelina is just amazing. The James Bond movie theme song gets destroyed by the Norwegian powerhouse.
You should see her "Feeling Good" rendition. Absolute perfection that will blow you away. She was 10 then, Then you can see her "I's a Man's World" at 12 (the non-concert version is better,a s the acoustics are better). That will blow your mind too. Then at 12 you can see her original "Shield," which sounds like a James Bond theme song type of song. Amazing.
Angelina has so many performances that show her insane skill level, but this one (maybe more than any other) is a great example of how the music is just _in_ her. This is not something you can teach a person to do. This has to come from somewhere deep inside. While she doesn't really have anything else that uses the same sound and style of this one, I think after people have seen this one, it gives them a deeper appreciation for how much of her soul she pours into every single performance she does. If you want suggestions for more, I highly recommend going to her "cover channel" and selecting literally anything. It's all gold.
She dose the arrangements too, and that's nuts! She knows exactly what she wants and since she plays multiple instruments and English is her third language, seems to aid in her insane abilities. My recommendations are her are "Million miles" Her song. "7th. Heaven" Her song. "I'm still holding out for you" She did with Babyfuzz. An EDM jam she did called "Above the water" and for the other 100+ on CZcams, well you have lots of material that brings lots of views that we watch TO THE END. It's all good in the world of AJ. and welcome.
Keep in mind she keeps working on songs until she is satisfied. No doubt a perfectionist. There is a fly me to the moon at 8 and then she does it for Quinxy Jones at 12. By 12 it is perfect.
Great reaction, she has several recent, but there are ove 130 covers all rearranged by her and 5 originals, 2 of them not even a year old. Million Miles, when she was 14, Nov last year and 7th Heaven, several months ago! God Bless!
She has brought jazz back into the forefront with her vocal performances at this age to a difficult genre to sing ! It's so wonderful and refreshing that Angelina took this vocal journey into jazz apparently from the age of 2 ! Simply amazing and its given her a tremendous vocal ability and agility to perform many different styles of songs so effortlessly ! I would suggest her newest original song "7th Heaven " that has a jazz club feel and is so good ! There is the live in the studio and the just released official Republic video ! Thank you reacting to our barefoot princess ! 👍🤗🇨🇦🤗👍
She has a number of versions of "Fly Me to the Moon" out. To frame her growth over time, I would recommend her early performance on the TV show "The View" in 2014 when she was 8. Follow that with the version she performed for Quincy Jones's 85th birthday gala in 2018 (at his personal invitation) at the O2 Arena in London when she was 12. There is only live audio from that concert, but a superfan synced it with video her grandmother recorded of a rehearsal session; it is excellent. The View: czcams.com/video/nBGMQ9Kx9iI/video.html For Quincy: czcams.com/video/OMkwoqUNNkE/video.html
She just released 2 days ago her original song "7th Heaven", ala old school jazz. Be careful as it is a UMG, Republic Records video, her new label. On the one you just viewed she was barely 9 years old, 9 yrs and 2 mos. By this time she had already performed around the world at 8 years old for various children's charity events and dignitaries after winning Norway's Got Talent. You might try her first live performance after NGT, "What A Difference A Day Makes, Allsang pa Grensen" with a jazz band and back up singers. She appears even much younger and it is mind bending. GREAT REACTION!!!!!!!
If you would like to see Angelina's latest, you could look to her original, Seventh Heaven, official video, for her first video with budget and decent production, from Republic Records. You could listen to her "in studio" covers of "Heal the World" and Adele's "All I Ask". Then you're pretty well at today, 15 years old. Please don't miss her audition to Gloomy Sunday on Norway's Got Talent (7 years) and her finals performance for the win, "Summertime". Thanks for a great reaction, and I'll stay til the end. smiles.
Many thanks for providing a link to the original video as well as Angelina's Official CZcams channel, which is approaching 600k subscribers. Personally, I think she should have 600 million subscribers. Are YOU (referring to everyone) subscribed to this amazing artist's channel??
When she was 10 she cut a DEMO for (I Am Still Holding Out For You) She really will blow your mind. She never released it because there was a line in it they didn't like it.
Thanks for another great reaction. For a 'recent' performance, a new video of her own composition '7th heaven', her cover of Adele's 'Al I ask'. It's also worth going back to her Norway's Got Talent performances, which start with 'Gloomy Sunday'.
Ur reaction is same as everyone that hear it first tim,e , shell shocked hehe She's 9 here ...at age 11 she wrote *Sheild ..and perfoirmes at age 12 on ,SVT (swedish television ) love the lyrics especially one line *Forgive me for all i am * ..one off her Angel's here will fill u in more on that beautiful song , i think was for her mother / family ; )
half of my comment was cut out sorry there is a 3 month old Adelle cover called all i ask that is excellent and you really can see her growth as she is now 15
You will get so many recommendations from Angelina fans and they will all lead you in the right direction. There is no bad song, she is my favorite artist. I like to recommend her newest originals because I think it's best way to support and promote her. She is humble and she has an amazing support system. She even has Gene Simmons helping guide her and her parents through the pitfalls of the music industry. Please do "Million Miles" and "Seventh Heaven". She wrote them both but I'm including 7th Heaven the official video she just dropped. I subbed. czcams.com/video/9rLiWvwzbCA/video.html
Yours was one of the typical reactions to this performance. The realization that that everything you thought you knew about singing has changed and how do you put it into context with every other singer. And talking about control, I noticed that you didn't mention how she slides soft little vibratos into the middle of some notes instead of singing them flat through. This is part of her biggest signature, subtle changes in her voice that you may not notice specifically but they have a tremendous effect.
I watched till the end..does this mean I can request you check out her practice session of “Love On The Brain” 😁? she was 13 I think, 15 now, and so it’s much more contemporary..it’s a fascinating insight into how plays around with a song as she’s singing it..riffing with the lyrics, changing the key slightly..her voice is stunning of course but also she is playing the piano..she also plays guitar, flute and another I forget..great reaction..subd..
She has two originals within the last year. Million Miles and 7th Heaven. She also recently did All I Ask by Adele and in my opinion does it better than Adele and she's sitting down when she sings it. Also Heal the world by Michael Jackson was recent and spot on during this pandemic. The Barefoot Princess.
MEGA NEWS FOR YOU AS A REACTOR! This one you MUST please take a reaction on !!! ANGELINA JORDAN (15 y.o.) ft. Duffy "Mercy" Virtual Duet - GOOSEBUMPS !!!
Angelina has amazing flexibility as can be witnessed by the following four songs: ---- Shield [as 12-year old, Angelina wrote song. As 12-year old, performed song on very popular Scandinavian talk show Skavlan (2.5 to 3 million viewers per show): czcams.com/video/lQtUbVKb0vs/video.html] [In interview (changes to English at about 0:36 mark) before Angelina sung, paraphrasing, she said that when she sings she goes into endless other world that is full of happiness. She said that song is about someone you love and whose strong love protects you wherever you are. Angelina said song's sound was inspired by Bond films. Her favorite Bond film songs are Diamonds Are Forever and Goldfinger. She sings few bars of Diamonds Are Forever a cappella. She said that highlight of her career was singing for Quincy Jones' 85th birthday concert in London. When asked if she feels like she is 12 years old, Angelina says she only does when she looks at her passport: czcams.com/video/97hjWg4ToRQ/video.html] [as 13-year old, performed in artistic video directed by her maternal grandmother Mery Zamani: czcams.com/video/m8OCbAlr_48/video.html] ---- Above The Water [as 13-year old, to show incredible cross genre abilities, Angelina, collaborated with Norwegian EDM (Electronic Dance Music) duo TRXD and recorded vocals for song. TRXD is Truls Dyrstad and David Atarodiyan where TRXD represents their names (TRuls X David). In 2020, song was released officially as audio only track and has almost 3.5 million plays on Spotify. However, amazing unofficial video was created that added some footage of shuffle dancers doing variations of Melbourne shuffle (rave dance from 1980s): czcams.com/video/y6SilwnR2Zc/video.html] ---- I Will Survive [as 10-year old, Angelina again hits it out of the park, in another new music genre: disco! This is only disco song to win Grammy. In 2016, Library of Congress deemed Gloria Gaynor's original recording to be "culturally, historically, or artistically significant" and selected it for preservation in National Recording Registry: czcams.com/video/ma7sa_n7k-8/video.html] ---- Song For A [as 13-year old, Angelina sings this song with music by modern classical composer Nico Cartosio. It can be described as musical poetry. Lyrics come from poem by Robert Burns. Song was written specifically for Angelina as part of mostly instrumentals album Melting (8 instrumentals plus Song For A). Album was recorded at famous Abbey Road studio and released in April 2019: czcams.com/video/Bo3mhxPM-uA/video.html]
I know you said that you were trying to increase your membership and get those subscriptions up. If you keep doing Angelina Jordan reactions, you’ll get those numbers in no time, I showed up on your channel because of Angelina, and I think many others, have done the same! So keep keep on doing reactions from this blessed angel, and you will see your numbers rise exponentially, and much quicker than you ever dreamed of!
You should do 2 videos of Fly Me to the Moon on the same reaction. The one on the Rosie show and then the the version she did for Quincy Jones’ B-day. She did those at 8 and 12 years old respectively.

My favorite hobby in the entire world is watching people react to this specific video of little Barefoot Princess, Angelina Jordan. I love watching reactors faces, their responses, the amazement. Thank you so much for your reaction.
I can't think of any women in their mid 30's as good as Angelina in this absolute classic video!
Another spell was cast by 9 yo Angelina.
Let’s analyze the video:
1st you see how small and cute she is.
2nd you see she is barefoot (story below)
3rd You see her making her “Wish List” of suggested changes to the song.
4th the band leader taking note of the changes.
5th Angelina is holding a candle with “Screemin’ Jay Hawkin’s (original artist 1956) picture on it.
6th the old soul in her voice.
She is the youngest published author in Norway. Angelina wrote and her Grandmother illustrated a book about why she sings barefoot. She was on a trip to Iran where her grandmother is from and met a street girl weighing people for money. Angelina sat and talk with the girl.

A musical prodigy, Angelina Jordan sang for the first time at barely a year old, and she never stopped.

Angelina is 9 years old on this performance.
She is singing the Screamin' Jay Hawkins (1956) version whose face is on the candle she held in the beginning.
Thank you for reacting to the diamond vocals - The Norwegian singer (Now based in LA) Angelina Jordan is a young living legend.
When her record label (Republic Records) , family and herself want it, they can just push the button. Many people forget that she is only 15 years old today because she is so mature for her age. No need to hurry, I'm sure Angelina has good people around her. I think everyone on her team including the record company (Republic Records), slows down a bit with marketing her. She is so good anyway, so she can not be ignored. She delivers music that lasts, and not music that lasts for a few weeks as plastic hit. Angelina has over 600 Million Views on CZcams and over 2 Billion Views on Facebook overall on her videos. Angelina won Norway's Got Talent at the Age of 8, and has been producing masterclass level vocals ever since. The only and regular marketing is done by the fans via CZcams. All the important top personalities in the western music industry know who she is and what she can do. In just a few years I know that we will see great things from Angelina.
If you need to identify who she sound like, I can tell you that she has 1000 different voices to choose from, depending on the song choice and type .. It's Angelina.
spell is cast ✔️
Unlike most artists Angelina has progressed amazingly quickly.Check out the jawdropping I'm still holding out for you at age 10.
She was only 10 when she sang? - I'm Still Holding Out For You -
Wow... like this performance, that just doesn't compute.
"It's A Man's World!", which she did aged 12, is also leaving you speechless.
I concur with you Bernie. I’m still holding out for you is her first worldwide hit that never was. It’s in the top 2-3 of her best songs I think.
Angelina is one of the most addictive singers I have ever listened to, & one of the very few, that can pull you right into the song, making you feel, every word, every note, & every emotion. ❤️💙 I always have this feeling that Angelina is not only channeling some of these late great singers, but that they also pass through her, when she is singing their song ❤️💙 A rare beauty, in every sense of the word ❤️💙 If there was ever a reason to believe in something greater than ourselves, or reincarnation, Angelina Jordan is it ❤️💙 Loved your reaction!!! ❤️💙 ***RIP SCREAMIN JAY HAWKINS***
Hi. Yea current... million miles .. 7th heaven ... all i ask....heal the world
Dude, hold on. I've been on the Angelina ride for two years now. Her voice is pure pleasure to my ears. She's got great control and her larynx is another instrument keeping it all warm and grounded. It never dulls, diminishes, still astonishing. Your life just changed
Harrison, I might point out, that she studies at the music academy Oslo since age 4 (on her own insistence). She studies all genres of music including opera. When the Oslo academy could not add more knowledge, she moved to LA to finish school and academy there. Very soon she will be finishing Highschool.
Almost anything she recorded when 10 years old is a good place to see the evolution of her style and ability. "Feeling Good" (either of two videos,) "I'm still holding Out For You," or "Back To Black" (where she rewrote the lyrics the day before to make them more suitable for a girl her age.) 2016 was an amazing year in Angelina's career. But they all are, aren't they?
She actually arranged the whole song, including the band, she does it for all her recording's. They all call her the Boss and really respect her. Love her she is amazing. Enjoy your reactions. Blessings from a Gran in South Africa
Angelina is a once in a few life times singer IMHO. She is a role model and my favorite human also. Angelina the genius was born to sing and will surprise at every turn. Thumbs up Harrison.
If you like Fly Me To The Moon, and you like smooth tones, her Quincy Jones version is not to be missed. Gorgeous.
When god made Angelina he must put an angel in her soul. If this blow your mind you should see her first studiorecording at 6 with the song "I who have nothing". I feel so blessed to have come across here talant.
Yes, Angelina still had a tiny remnant of a child's voice in this at 9, but by the time she turned 10, a well respected vocal coach at Vocal Splendor Studios (Valerie), said she had reached Master Level Vocals & could be a vocal coach herself. Since she signed with republic Records last year at 14, she has released 5 songs, 2 originals & 3 covers. All 5 are mind blowing!! Million Miles is an original song written about the loss of her beloved grandpa & 7th Heaven is an original jazz song about not giving up on your dreams. The 3 covers are by legendary vocalists &, IMHO, all 3 are better than the originals. That may be hard to believe, but check it out They are All I Ask (Adele), Heal the World (Michael Jackson) & When You Believe (Whitney Houston ft. Mariah Carey).
"I Who Have Nothing" AGE6!!!
Fly me to the moon, on the program 'the view' million miles at 14 studio version, all i ask recent Adele cover
Great reaction dude,, I've listen to this about 50 times now an I still think I'm on drugs everytime,,lol,, it still gives me mind BLOWING brain trauma,,👣🌬🌎
Angelina Jordan singing is everything.
Angelina has always shown the trait of challenging herself.. and consistently delivering! This one is no different. She does things with a song (not for her sake or to "show" what she can do but for the message of the song) that few other can do.
Thanks for an amazing reacting to Angelina. Love from Norway ❤️
She is also matching her voice perfectly to the horns!!
Progression: Fly Me To The Moon aged 8, Feeling Good aged 10, Stay aged 11, I'd Rather Go Blind aged 12, How Great Thou Art aged 13, Million Miles aged 15. How about that? And if those don't catch your fancy, she has others.
This was her production. The notes you saw her handing to the band manager were the changes she was requesting of the individual band members. This is one of the reasons she is 'branded' as a child prodigy. The band members affectionately call her 'the Boss'. She arranges the song AND the music.
Nice comment,, an she is polite about it too an calls them her "wishes",,👣
The fact that she holds true to her promise of performing in front of a camera barefoot and on stage barefoot really impresses me as well. A lot of famous singers I am not sure if they would be able to do that. If anyone has seen her performing even in cold weather, she goes barefoot then as well. It is truely an inspiration to see that as well. Her singing has every single record company trying to get her to work with and sign with them. She is amazing. I think the reason she has been working with yhe record lable she currently works with because they allow her to do stuff such as compose the arrangments and such. If you notice in this video, she is constantly looking at the band, and I think she is doing so to see if they are doing what she wants done to perfection. She is a little boss at that. She commands the room without being overbearing and that is why they respect het in this aspect I think.
She just put out a new 7th heaven video, I think that's most current. Nice reaction 👍
What's even more amazing is Angelina arranged this cover on her own . Or so I heard .
I think she is straight up doing her own version of Screamin Jay Hawkins,.. like verse for verse. But what comes out are her own amazing talents at every turn. And that finish is a standing ovation. WOW!! is right!!
Her version of Summertime from when she was eight years old really gives you a much greater appreciation for range and abilities
Regardez la performer dans Norway Got Talent à 7 ans Summertime Bang Bang Bloomy Sunday ❤❤❤
@UCM7DsTB6JIhB8hKONuDsprQ thanks for a great reaction. AJ is a gift to the world!!❤️❤️❤️
Ah?? Ohhh ?? Woww ! All the exclamation are correct and met she is the best one of only 3 in the planet an old soul and keep reacting.. thxs
Her cover of Adele's 'All I Ask' to hear her now and to further blow your mind 'I'm Still Holding Out For You' is a must. Honestly, anywhere in Angelina's catalogue is amazing.
How about.....Diamonds are forever....
Outdoor concert, amazing vocals, great atmosphere. Wish I had the link. Someone will help please. Angelina is just amazing. The James Bond movie theme song gets destroyed by the Norwegian powerhouse.
czcams.com/video/9RGZRg9YH3k/video.html
A song out of her 3 full concert tour she did in summer 2017.
A full Profi at the age of 11y
Next one to try: I'm Still Holding Out For You
You should see her "Feeling Good" rendition. Absolute perfection that will blow you away. She was 10 then, Then you can see her "I's a Man's World" at 12 (the non-concert version is better,a s the acoustics are better). That will blow your mind too. Then at 12 you can see her original "Shield," which sounds like a James Bond theme song type of song. Amazing.
Angelina has so many performances that show her insane skill level, but this one (maybe more than any other) is a great example of how the music is just _in_ her. This is not something you can teach a person to do. This has to come from somewhere deep inside. While she doesn't really have anything else that uses the same sound and style of this one, I think after people have seen this one, it gives them a deeper appreciation for how much of her soul she pours into every single performance she does. If you want suggestions for more, I highly recommend going to her "cover channel" and selecting literally anything. It's all gold.
She dose the arrangements too, and that's nuts! She knows exactly what she wants and since she plays multiple instruments and English is her third language, seems to aid in her insane abilities. My recommendations are her are "Million miles" Her song. "7th. Heaven" Her song. "I'm still holding out for you" She did with Babyfuzz. An EDM jam she did called "Above the water" and for the other 100+ on CZcams, well you have lots of material that brings lots of views that we watch TO THE END. It's all good in the world of AJ. and welcome.
Keep in mind she keeps working on songs until she is satisfied. No doubt a perfectionist. There is a fly me to the moon at 8 and then she does it for Quinxy Jones at 12. By 12 it is perfect.
Great reaction, she has several recent, but there are ove 130 covers all rearranged by her and 5 originals, 2 of them not even a year old. Million Miles, when she was 14, Nov last year and 7th Heaven, several months ago! God Bless!
She is so Amazing., go back to NORWAYS GOT TALENT SHE IS 7. Angelina is so so so special in many ways. Great reaction
one of my favorite reactions.. you're great ..
She has brought jazz back into the forefront with her vocal performances at this age to a difficult genre to sing ! It's so wonderful and refreshing that Angelina took this vocal journey into jazz apparently from the age of 2 ! Simply amazing and its given her a tremendous vocal ability and agility to perform many different styles of songs so effortlessly ! I would suggest her newest original song "7th Heaven " that has a jazz club feel and is so good ! There is the live in the studio and the just released official Republic video ! Thank you reacting to our barefoot princess ! 👍🤗🇨🇦🤗👍
She has a number of versions of "Fly Me to the Moon" out. To frame her growth over time, I would recommend her early performance on the TV show "The View" in 2014 when she was 8. Follow that with the version she performed for Quincy Jones's 85th birthday gala in 2018 (at his personal invitation) at the O2 Arena in London when she was 12. There is only live audio from that concert, but a superfan synced it with video her grandmother recorded of a rehearsal session; it is excellent.
The View: czcams.com/video/nBGMQ9Kx9iI/video.html
For Quincy: czcams.com/video/OMkwoqUNNkE/video.html
She just released 2 days ago her original song "7th Heaven", ala old school jazz. Be careful as it is a UMG, Republic Records video, her new label. On the one you just viewed she was barely 9 years old, 9 yrs and 2 mos. By this time she had already performed around the world at 8 years old for various children's charity events and dignitaries after winning Norway's Got Talent. You might try her first live performance after NGT, "What A Difference A Day Makes, Allsang pa Grensen" with a jazz band and back up singers. She appears even much younger and it is mind bending. GREAT REACTION!!!!!!!
“I Have Nothing” - Whitney Houston cover
If you want to hear what she can do now you must play her cover of Adele's "All I Ask."
If you would like to see Angelina's latest, you could look to her original, Seventh Heaven, official video, for her first video with budget and decent production, from Republic Records. You could listen to her "in studio" covers of "Heal the World" and Adele's "All I Ask". Then you're pretty well at today, 15 years old. Please don't miss her audition to Gloomy Sunday on Norway's Got Talent (7 years) and her finals performance for the win, "Summertime". Thanks for a great reaction, and I'll stay til the end. smiles.
I’m here for the ride!! Love your reaction!
Check out "I'd rather go blind" and "This is aman's World". To amazing covers where she really shine. Enjoy!
🥰🤗😚
How amazing this young special girl
Looking forward for more reactions from you sir🥰🤗❤️❤️
Thank youuu🙏🥰🤗❤️😘
You have to listen to her version of Goodbye Yellow Brick Road…it’s amazing!!!
Yeh you csn see her progression from 18months old to now on youtube. She started studio recording at age 6. She has well over 100 youtube videos
I could watch this a hundred times (probably have 😆) and never stop getting goosebumps!
Tina Turner wrote a song about Angelina, although i do not think she was aware, lol. Simply The Best.
Many thanks for providing a link to the original video as well as Angelina's Official CZcams channel, which is approaching 600k subscribers. Personally, I think she should have 600 million subscribers. Are YOU (referring to everyone) subscribed to this amazing artist's channel??
Yes sir, I am
There are several versions of Fly Me To The Moon and I love the rehearsal version getting ready to sing for Quincy 85th B-day
When she was 10 she cut a DEMO for (I Am Still Holding Out For You) She really will blow your mind. She never released it because there was a line in it they didn't like it.
You said you would like to check out her recent stuff. She recently dropped a music video to her second single "7th Heaven".
Incomprehensible.
she dropped a new video 7th Heaven
Thanks for another great reaction. For a 'recent' performance, a new video of her own composition '7th heaven', her cover of Adele's 'Al I ask'. It's also worth going back to her Norway's Got Talent performances, which start with 'Gloomy Sunday'.
For the more recent, have a look at her Adele cover "All I ask", or one of her originals with Republic (Million Miles og 7th Heaven)
Ur reaction is same as everyone that hear it first tim,e , shell shocked hehe She's 9 here ...at age 11 she wrote *Sheild ..and perfoirmes at age 12 on ,SVT (swedish television ) love the lyrics especially one line *Forgive me for all i am * ..one off her Angel's here will fill u in more on that beautiful song , i think was for her mother / family ; )
half of my comment was cut out sorry there is a 3 month old Adelle cover called all i ask that is excellent and you really can see her growth as she is now 15
You will get so many recommendations from Angelina fans and they will all lead you in the right direction. There is no bad song, she is my favorite artist. I like to recommend her newest originals because I think it's best way to support and promote her. She is humble and she has an amazing support system. She even has Gene Simmons helping guide her and her parents through the pitfalls of the music industry. Please do "Million Miles" and "Seventh Heaven". She wrote them both but I'm including 7th Heaven the official video she just dropped. I subbed.
czcams.com/video/9rLiWvwzbCA/video.html
If you play fly me to the moon make sure it's the Quincy Jones reversal vid..much better with an orchestra
Thanks from Italy👋☺🇮🇹
Angelina just put out an official video of 7th Heaven a couple of days ago.
can see the growth, There is also a 2 month old cover of heal the world by Michael Jackson both are excellent
Enjoyed your reaction, you just. Meet a musical prodigy
Yours was one of the typical reactions to this performance. The realization that that everything you thought you knew about singing has changed and how do you put it into context with every other singer. And talking about control, I noticed that you didn't mention how she slides soft little vibratos into the middle of some notes instead of singing them flat through. This is part of her biggest signature, subtle changes in her voice that you may not notice specifically but they have a tremendous effect.
Nine years old here...😊💟
You should see her at 6 years old in Studio singing I Who Have Nothing 💕
Fun fact The picture on the candle is Screaming Jay Hawkins The original singer of this song.
I watched till the end..does this mean I can request you check out her practice session of “Love On The Brain” 😁? she was 13 I think, 15 now, and so it’s much more contemporary..it’s a fascinating insight into how plays around with a song as she’s singing it..riffing with the lyrics, changing the key slightly..her voice is stunning of course but also she is playing the piano..she also plays guitar, flute and another I forget..great reaction..subd..
yeah man, i agree completely ... INSANE. Insanely awesome
She has two originals within the last year. Million Miles and 7th Heaven. She also recently did All I Ask by Adele and in my opinion does it better than Adele and she's sitting down when she sings it. Also Heal the world by Michael Jackson was recent and spot on during this pandemic. The Barefoot Princess.
MEGA NEWS FOR YOU AS A REACTOR! This one you MUST please take a reaction on !!!
ANGELINA JORDAN (15 y.o.) ft. Duffy "Mercy" Virtual Duet - GOOSEBUMPS !!!

Also yellow brick road in agt 2020 .. super . Also
Yeah years old in two months here original song, ice cream address from Screamin’ Jay Hawkins 1956. He was a blue singer.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Angelina has amazing flexibility as can be witnessed by the following four songs:
---- Shield [as 12-year old, Angelina wrote song. As 12-year old, performed song on very popular Scandinavian talk show Skavlan (2.5 to 3 million viewers per show): czcams.com/video/lQtUbVKb0vs/video.html]
[In interview (changes to English at about 0:36 mark) before Angelina sung, paraphrasing, she said that when she sings she goes into endless other world that is full of happiness. She said that song is about someone you love and whose strong love protects you wherever you are. Angelina said song's sound was inspired by Bond films. Her favorite Bond film songs are Diamonds Are Forever and Goldfinger. She sings few bars of Diamonds Are Forever a cappella. She said that highlight of her career was singing for Quincy Jones' 85th birthday concert in London. When asked if she feels like she is 12 years old, Angelina says she only does when she looks at her passport: czcams.com/video/97hjWg4ToRQ/video.html]
[as 13-year old, performed in artistic video directed by her maternal grandmother Mery Zamani: czcams.com/video/m8OCbAlr_48/video.html]
---- Above The Water [as 13-year old, to show incredible cross genre abilities, Angelina, collaborated with Norwegian EDM (Electronic Dance Music) duo TRXD and recorded vocals for song. TRXD is Truls Dyrstad and David Atarodiyan where TRXD represents their names (TRuls X David). In 2020, song was released officially as audio only track and has almost 3.5 million plays on Spotify. However, amazing unofficial video was created that added some footage of shuffle dancers doing variations of Melbourne shuffle (rave dance from 1980s): czcams.com/video/y6SilwnR2Zc/video.html]
---- I Will Survive [as 10-year old, Angelina again hits it out of the park, in another new music genre: disco! This is only disco song to win Grammy. In 2016, Library of Congress deemed Gloria Gaynor's original recording to be "culturally, historically, or artistically significant" and selected it for preservation in National Recording Registry: czcams.com/video/ma7sa_n7k-8/video.html]
---- Song For A [as 13-year old, Angelina sings this song with music by modern classical composer Nico Cartosio. It can be described as musical poetry. Lyrics come from poem by Robert Burns. Song was written specifically for Angelina as part of mostly instrumentals album Melting (8 instrumentals plus Song For A). Album was recorded at famous Abbey Road studio and released in April 2019: czcams.com/video/Bo3mhxPM-uA/video.html]
Always till the end of the clip.
Yep.
I know you said that you were trying to increase your membership and get those subscriptions up. If you keep doing Angelina Jordan reactions, you’ll get those numbers in no time, I showed up on your channel because of Angelina, and I think many others, have done the same! So keep keep on doing reactions from this blessed angel, and you will see your numbers rise exponentially, and much quicker than you ever dreamed of!
You should do 2 videos of Fly Me to the Moon on the same reaction. The one on the Rosie show and then the the version she did for Quincy Jones’ B-day. She did those at 8 and 12 years old respectively.
🙏🙏👍👍💙💙
Thank you❤️ Listen to Seventh he en or Million miles, which are more recent and two of her original songs.
Great reaction/analysis, I'm on board for the trip and you will continue to be AMAZED by Angelina!💯
