When you experience AJ’s versatility there is only one conclusion that can be made, she is the GREATEST of all time there is no one else to compare her to on earth.
Great, thanks! I only clicked on this cause I look to see if there's a reaction to "play pretend" and girl, you satisfied my craving then and all the way through!
Thank you for reacting to this amazing and emotional performance by Angelina. The Barefoot Angel is an unmatchable musical talent with her unique and angelic voice.
Thank you for reacting so wonderful to this song. To me this is better than the original. There are still so many mindblowing auditions from her you can react to and I will watch them all.
She used to change the feel of Adele songs, to a slower more emotional feel. Unreal moving performances. This at what late 14/ early 15? Changed that. The belts, the clarity and speed. She hit the speed bag on that one run and sent everyone reeling and stumbling, not just you. This is when I knew all those tid bits of these strengths, I had heard throughout her years, were just yet another strength she choses not to bring out most of the time. That I wasn't hearing things. That her belts and higher keys, her talents work just as well at any pace, key and technique or mix of them. Vocal masterclass in a more mainstream kind of way this one. This showed a fine tuning of everything, even the stuff she doesn't use all that often. She made an Adele song even more difficult and crushed it easy peasy. Maniac.
Absolutely amazing performance Angelina’s version is my favourite one , she is so special, I’ve been recently attending Angelina’s live concerts in Norway 🇳🇴 her stage presence is phenomenal her vocal performances amazing,and she seems so relaxed to be home in her own country, Norway is absolutely amazing for sightseeing, great reaction thanks 🙏
None of the current greats had this skill and quality at 15. Not Adele or Aguilera or Dion or even Whitney. There are YT videos of those young stars. It's hard to wrap my mind around the idea that AJ has 12 more years before getting to the age 28 when Whitney recorded I Have Nothing. What will Angelina being doing by then? Probably everything she imagines.
This is one of my top three covers of YOUNG LEGEND. My Funny Valentine is number one and What a DIfference a DAY Makes live in concert when she was eight is the other. All the rest are tied for fourth.
@@SoulSessionSundays yiu really ought to use headphones..the more expensive the better…I listened to AJ for a year without..then took the plunge and bout some posh German ones..it was like rediscovering her all over again )) You’re one person who feels music and so headphones are a must 😁
Angelina's voice here so yummy, so tasteful. She is graceful, elegant and poise. I remember when this video came out, I was so excited that the moment she started singing, my chest filled up with emotions and I teared up because of the sound of her voice have gotten fuller but the angelic sound still remained. Her voice hugs my soul. Great reaction and keep them coming.
Thank you for your reaction. Here, as in other interventions, you underline one of the great qualities of Angelina Jordan : the fact that her singing is so classy, so elegant, so simple, often overwhelming, and this since her debut. For example, the version of "What a Difference a Day Makes" that she sang in public when she was eight years old, which I never listen to without great emotion. That an eight year old sings like this is, as Soul Reacts said two years ago in his commentary, "a miracle, an absolute miracle" and Angelina "a bundle of cuteness". Best whishes from Paris.
She send this song to an other level with her adding runs and riffs and beautiful decorations. She loves Adele with 9 Covers over the years. So sorry she don't sang anything of her at her last Concerts, maybe for the respect to Adele 💕✌️
I've noticed that Angelina stays true to the original more with her Adele covers than almost any other artist. I think that this is testimony to Adele's brilliance in creating emotional songs that Angelina sees that any wholesale changes would only diminish the songs.
I was never really aware of Adele until Angelina did this cover. I had of course heard of her, but never heard her sing that I know of. Adele has a nice voice, but in my opinion, no one sings Adele better than Angelina, not even Adele. This song and "Easy On Me" can pull the tears from my eyes so easily, and with Adele there is nothing. I look forward to more of your reactions to Angelina. She is the reason I subscribed. I only listen to reactions to her songs. Thank you for doing such a wonderful job with them.
There is a rumor, that when she was asked about the covers of Angelina of her songs, Adele answered: "I feel honored". Let´s hope these two ladies will meet and cooperate in the not so far future.
I've been enjoying your reactions quite a lot. If you would like to enjoy them as much as I do, may I recommend you listen through earbuds or quality headphones. When you try it you will understand what you have missed and probably want to listen again to all the performances you have already watched. . I think you will find many Angelina fans who really appreciate Adele writing these songs for Angelina. I've never heard AJ perform anything that I didn't think was better than anyone else's performance of that song. The only time that happens is when Angelina performs it again and exceeds what she did in her previous performance. Soul Session Sundays must have been created to showcase Angelina Jordan. It's perfect!
Beautiful reaction, wise words. Difficult to classify Angelina as she is off the scales of anything. This performance, in my opinion, was the moment of the leap, not only quality, but of realizing that she knows where she wants to go and shows all her quality...
Dear Lady, your reaction to Angelina's version of Adele's "All I Ask" was priceless; you can feel the emotion in her voice as she brings the lyrics alive with her beautiful voice. Looking forward to your subsequent discovery of Angelina's music on your journey.
Yes, we can appreciate that performance. And we can appreciate YOU as a great reactor. Thank you for your attention to the details of greatness. Have a great week. 💜
Good reaction. I enjoy your reactions because you enjoy and feel the beauty, passion, and emotions from Aj so well. She is so special, really an international treasure now, and hasn't even hit 20.
There are so many ways to go through her performances. Pick & choose is a great way to go about it :-) I think she is 13 here. Adele is an inspiration of Angelina she said in the Christmas special interview. Adele creates beautiful emotional songs, performs them wonderfully and I love listening to her. When comparing the two, I feel Angelina’s voice has more warmth and depth and I feel her singing more. She has done a bunch of covers of songs of Adele.
Bart, sir, may I correct something here? She was 14 to 15 years old. This is in the "home studio" of Mr. Rob Christie, the director of Republic Record Studios LA. She works with him, he is also her pianist 😄, and she signed the contract when 14. This was after "Million Miles". So please, no offence to your generous help of this charming lady here. That is recommendable. As usual, friend, please stay safe and sound. Elmar from Germany.
A couple comments: new fans of Angelina often wonder, as you mentioned, what sequence to follow in choosing the next song. The simple answer is that it doesn’t matter. Pick any genre, any age-it just doesn’t matter. Her voice is stronger and even more beautiful now, but her younger performances are some of my favorites because Angelina was easily the best child singer we’ve ever heard. Secondly, Adele is a great songwriter and singer, but her songs are perfect for Angelina. Angelina has an extraordinary ability to express melancholy in her songs, and she simply has more vocals tools than Adele (than anyone, actually), so her Adele covers are stunningly good. Please put on your list Angelina, at 12, in an acoustic setting singing Adele’s “A Million Years Ago”. It’s just a jam session with her guitarist, but it’s absolutely stunning. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-QHLtZQ3sIwE.html
Hi Adrianna, I'm loving your AJ, Allen Stone, Teddy Swims reactions and more. Your my forever Soul Sister Sunday lol. You've got to do AJ's latest release of Suspicious Minds, her tribute to Elvis. It's Mind blowing to se how she takes this 70's classic vibe and changes it to a modern, tasteful RnB joint, yet still pay's homage to the King's 1968 comeback tv concert. Cheers, can't wait for more
Beautiful reaction, thanks so much for sharing! 💖 I suggested earlier that you should use headphones\earplugs to get the best sound, but seeing how you connect with her music, im not sure your ears could handle hearing her with better audio 😁 You cant really go wrong with her, so just pick any song\performance you want to hear and im sure you wont be disappointed. See you in the next one! 🌹
Greatly enjoying your reactions to Angelina Jordan. I always watch your videos in their entirety, hit the like and post a comment. I thank you very much for providing a link to original video and humbly request you remind us viewers to watch, like and comment on the original video. That reminder is welcomed by each fan of every aspiring artist you feature and will be more likely to subscribe to your channel.
Beautiful reaction, Soul Session Sundays (I would like to address you by your first name, but I don't know what it is 😕) Angelina was 15 years 3 months old here. And like you said, she sang this song with SO much ease, making it her own; totally smashing it. We can all appreciate that, and we do 😍 I just have to tell you that I REALLY love your Angelina reactions! Keep it up😉 Much love and respect from Norway ♥♥♥♥♥
Loving your AJ reactions, Adrianna. (Saw your earlier reply where you offered your first name). Glad you did this one; it was one of four I suggested in a comment to one of your previous AJ reactions. I see you approved of that ridiculously sick descending riff in the second verse (me too!). Of course you can go back to listen a second time haha! I must have done that ten times before proceeding with the rest of the song the first time I heard it. I'm a sax player and that's one of those instances where AJ uses her voice like an instrumentalist would wield an instrument. Love it. Hope you are having a great holiday weekend. God bless.
The way I see you enjoy Angela sing, like her subtle nyances, I strongly reccomend you watch her sing the song; Stay, which she sings rather spontanous accompanied by the guitarist Ivan Mendes. I am sure you will love it. Thanks for your lovely reactions by the way❤️
This song by Adele is very much like her other recent release titled 'Easy On Me'. In both covers, Angelina differentiates herself from Adele with her jazz roots on display whereas, as great as Adele is, being a non-jazz singer there is no way she can match Angelina's emotion laden penetration when singing a heartfelt ballad. Because Angelina is also a natural 'vocal chameleon' she is able to bring the essence of Adele's voice to both songs mentioned, but also adds the 'breathy', 'whisper-like' releases she learned from Billie Holiday. In addition you can hear her 'slurring' words and making erratic mid-sentence 'key' changes that Amy Winehouse was known for. Have never heard another singer do something this intricately complex that sounds like 4 superstars in the songs. Vocal expert analyzer Andreas Grussl has a video that is titled 'Is This Better Than Adele?' In it he uses 'Easy On Me' as the song to match both artists to, section by section. He actually shows why Angelina's presentation is superior to Adele and I was amazed when he reveals how Angelina actually 'out belts' Adele which is no small feat.
It's just her singing because a lot of singers can control their voices, but they don't have what she has . When they sing it's great and some of their has emotions in them. But she has passion and feeling with every word we feel each song. They really speak to you more and better than the original singer version.
Not only smashed it but she was sitting down, A lot harder to sing properly when sitting. Her cover of Adele's Someone Like You and Easy on Me are just as ridiculously good.
As you will discover, many of the covers she performs often better than the originals. She brings out emotions you will not feel with the originals. You only have about 250 performances to go through. 🌸
Hi! Thank you for another great reaction to Angelina. Before I comment upon the performance, I must ask you a question. :-) Another Reactor who gives her location as the UK speaks with a very similar accent to yours. Her name is Candice Fontaine. Do you know her? Oh! Yes, I do know that the population of the UK is very, very large. 🙂 Angelina has that rare gift of paying homage to the original singer but singing the song with sufficient difference to take ownership of it. There are very few young singers today who are able to do this, especially on every performance. For me, her decision to change the emphasis on the last phrase by lengthening the word "never" was a stroke of genius. As an aside, this morning I went to have my hair cut. There were several customers ahead of me and I had to wait an hour. During the whole of that period there was a large screen on the wall showing music videos of singers. Of the many performing, not one of them were worthy to be described as talented. None of the female performers had the elegance and class of Angelina. I despair!
Wonderful reaction SSS to (15) Angie. Angie takes songs & Angelinalizes them & is still respectful to the original. What class. Angie is beyond what a Diva is. Her Character accounts for that alone. God bless her & you & your family too. (Please react to Angie's short little interview when she was 9) explaining why she performs barefoot & about the book she wrote. Angelina Jordan interviewed by Anne Lindmo, NRK TV “Lindmo” 14/11/2015 (eng & esp sub) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE--cCLDY0CSZ8.html during interview she is ask to sing. (Please do a reaction to this very touching story & also part 2 below is her singing) together their about 6 min. (These a nice videos to react to as a double reaction) Part 2 Angie sings “Unchained Melody” by the Righteous Brothers at (9) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-wGjqXxQbFgA.html
I love all your reactions about Angelina Jordan, but i would like to see you react to I D RATHER GO BLIND cover by Angelina Jordan. I am R. Soler from Dominican Republic.
robert The last fan to post that exact comment (on a different video) was raked over the coals by those die-hard "angels" who believed it was being dis--respectful to Adele. Just sayin'.
