@@jamelakajamalawkward question ❓ Trying to watch all your reactions to Angelina Jordan and this seems to be the first video I can find. Yet in this video you say that it's part 2... Am I missing something?
It's amazing how Angelina Jordan has the ability to make you feel every single word and make you feel pretty teary-eyed,because,she sounds so good. She's special
One of my favorite things about Angelina is that she is not "trying" to impress you. There's no need to give you flashy runs or hit the highest notes. The sings with so much emotion and subtle details that it just reaches out and pokes you right in the soul. It is impossible to not feel whatever song she is singing. There are so many more amazing performances from her. It makes it hard to pick one to recommend.... So here's six suggestions...with six different sounds... "Born to Die" (Lana Del Rey): ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-DNU-HcLuO_I.html "Valerie" (Amy Winehouse): ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-sqmJLkgk2Ik.html "Stay" (Rihanna): ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-_GSVPvCy3Yg.html "Nothing Breaks Like a Heart"(Miley Cyrus): ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-fJ9eu7qBiwQ.html "I Have Nothing"(Whitney Houston): ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-eTcvvO6B3Io.html And one of her originals, "What is Life": ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Bv0r77KN7RA.html
@@jamelakajamal Just realized that all those requests I posted above are modern songs. Here is another list that is a few of the older classics that she has done And again... six songs, six different sounds Feeling Good (Nina Simone) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-7HaMvkflBAo.html Every time We say Goodbye (Ella Fitzgerald) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-KRSI8HmTHJA.html Diamonds Are Forever (Shirley Bassey) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-xRfFcnD3KSo.html The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face (Roberta Flack) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-o5a9NW6SYuE.html Mr Lonely (Bobby Vinton) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-kN710xqfff0.html Can't Take My Eyes Off You (Frankie Valli) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ROsmdDujDH8.html
No way you are the only one. This girl coveys more emotion and I don't think its really close. Someone posted a video with them side by side and you can really tell. Adele just sort of sends it in when she plays it live (Maybe its too emotional for her to be that vulnerable?) I really don't know, but Angelina's version IS better.
@@jamelakajamal You my friend make me smile. I enjoy your reactions to her. I don't have a TV or computer and I only watch RU-vid on my phone connected to a speaker. That's the limit of my Internet activity. Lol. Keep up the good work.
Thanks for a great reaction Jamal! Welcome to the world of the one and only Angelina Jordan !!! She is from Norway and currently lives in California, USA. I've known her since 2014, here in YT, since when she won the "Norway Got Talent" program at only 8 years old !! At that time she appeared to the world singing the most beautiful jazz classics (Billie Holiday, Dinah Washington, Frank Sinatra, Etta James, Nina Simone, etc.). She went "viral" in the internet with her wonderful, raspy, fantastic and unmistakable voice for a little girl who was still changing her milk teeth !!! She completed 13 in January this year and already has a repertoire of stunning covers (plus 3 original songs, a few singles / EPs and 1 album) for a teenager who has not even fully launched herself as a professional singer / performer. Tracking her evolution has been a sensational and exciting journey! She has two RU-vid channels: Angelina Jordan Official: ru-vid.com/show-UC1Pwa4nFvIPbtYVLcBGDpjA Angelina Jordan CoverChannel: ru-vid.com/show-UCv-QOBc_N1xb8dTwqazD9Kg And a Patreon page: www.patreon.com/angelinajordan To help you move on with Angelina's discovery, may I suggest you take a look at the playlist I did with her main videos in YT posting chronological order.

Be careful, her voice is addictive :) Looking forward to your next reactions !! Cheers !!
Waaaoooow if , who sings like this , there is not a voice as sweet and melancholic as his is ,it is unique not reach the words and the verses to describe the emotions it gives us
Good morning, she is so soulful, I think she is a reincarnated soul of miss Billy Holiday...Angelina moves me when she sings. Thank you for the reaction.
Her power is in her EMOTION.. Angelina has the RARE, unique gift of pulling emotions from her heart to ours.. wrenching emotions from the depths of our souls out and bare them unashamedly... God bless this Child Prodigy... Your reactions are as engaging as is the music you play... PEACE J_aka_J... PEACE 🙏🏻
"When you sing and you close your eyes you go to a different place..." Man, that is exactly what she said in one of her interviews. 👏 What amazing about this cover is how impressive her low register is. I mean she can dive to the lowest note the song has and still will sounds like she's not in the very bottom yet. And the transition from the low register to the high note are just so sweep. And she's hitting those high notes without sounding loud. Her vocal control is so great that she can manage to keep her low and high notes in the same volume all through out the song. And that's a very hard thing to do.
I discovered Angelina Jordan a year ago with Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down), Gloomy Sunday and What a Difference a Day Makes, and your reaction was like looking at myself in the mirror. But her call to her guitarist would have ended: " . . . while I sit in this chair and kill this song while reading the lyrics from my smartphone." You can tell because she keeps glancing off to her left and struggles less to make the words fit as the song progresses (and she has her phone in frame on some of her other cover videos). So much for the theory that you have to have experienced an emotion to convey it convincingly. And finally, a big hand for her accompanist for giving her vocals plenty of room. He's as large as her or larger on screen but manages to disappear by keeping his accompaniment sparse.
I cried listening to the way she sang this song with that beautiful voice. It made me think of all the people in my life that are gone and I miss. It has the same effect on me every time I listen to it and that has never happen to me before and I've been listening to music for over 50 years.
I don't know if I got more enjoyment hearing her sing or from watching your face. I love everything about her singing. I would pay a lot ot go watch her live but I would have to have a front row seat!
After watching Angelina sing a couple of times...I have to watch it again just to see the hosts reactions. I laugh so hard it makes my stomach hurt. He's just so theatrical. But I truly understand what he's trying to convey. Sometimes there are just no words. There are no words to describe how beautiful Angelina's voice is!!!!
Thank you for another lovely Angelina Jordan reaction. I suggest you react to her covering Feel Good Back to Black (she rewrote the lyrics to suite her age) both done when she was 10 years old. I would also love to see you react to another crazy talented Norwegian woman: the magical Aurora born in 1996. Angelina's voice is a hot wind heavily scented with spices, blowing over the dessert sand on a moonlit night, while Aurora's voice is the sparkle as the sun hits the water, glinting so strong it almost blinds you and create rainbows on your retinas. She is an introvert and never wanted to be an artist, but she started to write songs in secret only for herself when she was nine years old, her family did not even know she sang until she was 14 years old. When she was 15 she got 4 hours in a studio and recorded her song Puppet because her parents so desperately wanted to hear her sing and she could not stand to sing in front of them. She explained in an interview "Suddenly, three weeks after ["Puppet"] was leaked on RU-vid by a classmate I had management. And I didn't even want to meet my management. I didn't have any use to become an artist, I didn't see the point of it. Then my mother told me that she felt this wonderful feeling between sadness and happiness, at the same time. She told me that if I could make her feel that way, maybe I could make people feel that way. And it would be selfish in one way to hide music from the world if it could be of any use. That kind of made me take the first step into the music industry.” When she sings, she uses her whole body and it looks like she is doing an interpretive dance while singing and the mic is on the mic stand all along. I suggest you react to her performing Runaway live at The 2015 Nobel Peace Prize Concert, she wrote the song in an hour when she was 11 years old. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Fc7XWW_Ehb8.html AURORA - RUNAWAY - The 2015 Nobel Peace Prize Concert
This young angel has an angelic voice, an angelic humble demeanor. Her name is appropriate. Her name is Angelina Jordan Astar. She will be the biggest star. The way she delivers every word, engulfs me into her soul. I am then taken into this beautiful journey that I cant describe. When she finishes, my emotions take over me. I want more. I have heard a lot of her songs and each songs is so smooth and inspiring. I cannot get enough of her. I want to thank you Jamel for showing your expressions. I can see she does the same to you.
There are several very good young female singers who have come along in the last ten years. She has what, I guess, would be called a blues or an old-time nightclub voice. To be honest, I'd rather listen to Angelina than the original artists with some of her songs. For a different voice, a classical voice who now can sing pop and Broadway, try early videos from Jackie Evancho. She started on AGT when she was 10. Look for her rendition of Nessun Dorma or The Lord's Prayer from her first PBS special. She's 19 now and just released her seventh album. There are many videos out there of her from the past nine years to choose from.
AJ is beyond comparison went into the studio at 6yrs of age, won NGT at 8yrs of age, and has covered abroad range of genre's from gospel, soul, jazz, rock, country & pop !!!!
Well Jamel, I believe you can see what it is about our little Angel that captivates us so. You are doing a very good job and WE fully expect you to do ALL of her work as she does not do sub par stuff. I subscribed to your channel and have watched your Angelina reactions many times already. hank you so much.
Have you noticed that almost every performance of hers is essentially live, almost a cappella? Can't think of another singer with that kind of confidence. On the other hand, who has that kind of talent?
I hope you find the time to come back to Angelina. She is an amazing young lady. :) 4 BIG suggested tunes to find: - I Put a Spell on You - Even if nearly everybody seems to react to this song already. - Shield (one of her original songs) - Summertime - the version where she sings with the KORK small orchestra. - Kawa No Nagare No You Ni - Yes a beautiful Japanese song she did for the people that attended her concert when she visited Japan. The list is MUCH longer than that of course, but I know there is only so much time to dedicate to doing this sort of thing.
So amazing- I listen to this almost every day. A soothing effect for anyone who loves music. Incredibly beautiful voice !!! Thanks also for your good channel, which I will follow.
The only logical reasoning for such a talent like Angelina is there has to be some kind of divine blessings the moment she was conceived...I mean, how else can such a voice / soul comes from one who is so young....And you my friend, thank you for your awesome sincere reaction.. Cheers
The world has SO MANY beautiful vocal artists! The American who only listen to the radio is missing some really beautiful music. I absolutely loved this cover, as I absolutely love 4th Impact, and many vocalists from the Phillippines. Thank you, Jamel, I'm really enjoying your journey!
Great reaction! I hope you will continue to react to her. I posted some links to various Angelina Jordan videos in your "it's a mans world" reaction comment section. They will give you some good alternatives in your Angelina Jordan Astar journey. 😇
I just looked that up and the info I got is she is 5 feet tall. I watched the videos of her latest outdoor concert in Norway and she was definitely not 6 feet. All the men in the band were much taller than her.
So wonderful that she recorded all this material at this time in her life. She is destined for even greater things obviously, but these tracks are timeless and eternal. It would be such a colossal waste if this was just practise in "the woodshed"..
Hey, I just came across you because I saw you were reacting to Angelina. I'm so happy you have found her, too. She touches my heart like nobody else except maybe Elvis and David Gilmour and a very few others. Have you seen her rendition of I Put a Spell On You that she made at only 9 years old? It'll blow your mind! Love your reactions, you're so very real.
Hello Jamel catch Angelina Jordan singing James Brown "It's a Mans World". Sorry I don't know how to send link. There are a couple out there and they are equally impressive. Just great jazz!
You're going to trip out on LP in so many ways . I can't answer you're question to this day and I don't want to know. Bouncys song , and lost on you, so many more. Crazy voice
