She's actually 11 in this, recording her album "It's Magic" which was released when she was 12 1/2. That was her maternal grandma, Mery Zamini, artist/poet & the one that introduced Angelina to jazz. She is AJ's soulmate.
I knew you'd be blown away by that performance. It was fun to watch. Let's be clear about one thing though, that was not just great *for an 11-year-old*, that was a legendary performance, period! I know she just keeps getting better, but I honestly can't imagine this song being sung any better.
When Ceci Dover, the vocal coach, reacted to this performance, she exclaimed it was perfect. Ceci asked, "Am I listening to Billie Holiday?" Angie was 11 for this. She is just having fun.
She actually sounds like one of those singer from the 50's on this one. When I heard her the first time,which was I Put A Spell On You,I knew,I wasn't just listening to any singer,but,I was listening to someone extraordinary
The most soulful performance I've ever seen! It's a pity that this kind of music is lacking today. You know, real instruments, real melodies, real voices, no effects. Thanks for the video 👍
I’m with you. Utterly astonishing. Hard to believe your very own eyes and ears. That’s she looks outward for validation is hard to believe too till you realize she’s a pre-teen here. Gah!
What about the emotion she brings into the lyrics? The quality of her voice, her phrasing and the emotion she expresses are a complete package. There isn't a musical or vocal skill missing from this amazing child.
❤️ 💚 💜 Every time I hear Angelina sing, I picture her stepping out of an old black & white movie, to transport us back in time, so we can fall in love with these genuine masterpieces again! If there ever was a reason to believe in something greater than us, or in reincarnation, Angelina Jordan is definitely it. She truly has the rare ability to connect with us, from her soul to ours, through her music, so we not only hear her magical voice, but also, feel it too. Really enjoyed your raw, informative & emotional reaction** ❤️ 💚 💜 ***ANGELINA JORDAN IS TRULY A BLESSING*** ❤️ 💚 💜
Give up bro..there's nothing to do except listen and let those sounds she's making take you on a magical mystical journey to somewhere totally fantastical! Thankyou Angelina...what you do with your voice is so gooooood!! I submit, no questions! And thankyou sir for sharing the goodness!
I love your reactions to Angelina You break down her style ,vocal range etc and give credit to her genious arrangements of the covers she does at such a young age.Keep up the good work Ill check out your po box after this ty
She’s only 14 here. She was making all those gestures to her grandmother who was filming it! I love this because she was pouring on the jazziness, the sultry ness, the feeling. So great!
She was actually 11 at the time of the recording. I resisted watching this because of her performance on NGT 2014. I needn't have worried she was born with a character that wouldn't allow mediocrity and grandma is right there to make sure that won't happen. So another amazing version that underlines her talent and why at 7, 11, 14 years old she continues to demonstrate an uncompromising talent that will not let her do anything less than her best. Great reaction TSR!! I love watching you watch great singers. Again, I would do some pretty nefarious things to be able to sing like you do. Please don't sell yourself short about your voice it is beautiful.
Thanks for your heartful reaction. You say you like Angelina, then please put the original link in your discription box. So we can give her the respect to this wonderful artist and Listen the whole song without stopping
The lady at the end was her grandmother who is a world renowned artist and is the one who started her singing jazz. !, again enjoyed your reaction thanks
Thank you so much for reacting to Angelina. Please next: Angelina singing "I will survive" (2016) 10 years old !!! - - This is actually a slightly hidden treasure among all her songs. AND remember, she's only 10 years old here!
Thank you Nick for this reaction. You're right I do love Angelina. What else can you ďo but love her voice and her soul. Such a huge talent at any age.
If you got time then you should definitely think about checking out her version of - All of me - (john legend) or - I rather rather go blind - (Etta james.) Both are amazing..
That was her grandma you saw at the end we’ve a lot to thank grandma Mery for by playing Jazz all the time when Angelina was just a baby and for all the videos she’s filmed when Angelina as been singing also the beautiful art work you will see in many of Angelina’s videos Love 💕 from Denise in Yorkshire England 🏴👼👸🏻🦶🦶💕👏👏🥰👋
I really don't think that she has to work that hard at her craft. This song was so easy for her. Probably another 1 taker and I think that she was referring to the lyrics as she went along. You can tell that she gets a real kick at changing her voice on many songs.
For the record, this was multiple takes (the audio, I mean, not the video). What we are watching is one of the takes that were used to build the final recording. What we are hearing, though, is the final recording, straight from the CD. The original video that the visuals here were taken from has the ambient sound from the recording booth. You can hear the sound of the orchestra (technically, military band) bleeding in from the other room. (So, apparently the vocals and the instrumentals were recorded at the same time. According to the CD liner notes, that would have been in November 2017.) Anyway, by playing the original in-the-booth audio and the audio from this mashup video simultaneously, you can tell that about half of the take we are watching her sing was used in the final product, and about half wasn't. (To be more specific, almost everything after the CD cover image slides in and covers her face - which was done to cover up a mistake that she made - was used, except the very last line of the song which was from a different take. Whether any of the first half of this take was used is debatable. It's hard to tell - mostly because it's so hard to get the two audios in sync at the beginning, since her vocals are different and the sound of the music in the booth is so low - but I think maybe a couple of lines here and there might have been used.) Based on how much of this take was used, I would guess they probably only needed 2 or 3 full takes to get everything they needed. (Much like "Back to Black", which seems to have only required 2 takes sung live with the musicians - except in that case apparently about 95% of the vocals in the final product were from a single take.)
@@DonaldLancon Interesting! Different topic, but as a film-maker, I know her famous monochrome video of 'I put a spell on you' is edited from more than one take, but do you know whether the audio master was also edited from more than one track? R (Australia)
look up the version of her singing this song when she was 7 , her audition for Norways Got Talent. its as good as this but she sings it acapella. if i am not mistaken it was her second song she did, right before they cut the group of contestants down.
She did this song already as 8 years old on a Netflix series. 8 years old for Little Steven: m.ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-xTEIUsNcHHM.html Netfilx "Lilyhamer": ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-1TkGeO6gWCI.html On red carpet for "Lilyhamer": ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-jQ6EBOeSRWk.html
The song was actually written by Frank Sinatra, looking for songs to sing himself, I wish that he was around to hear Angelina with her version, I can hear him shout to his producers "get this girl on my show",. Totally beautiful version, great cover, Love to watch you go into raptures over our Angel, me too, every time I hear her voice,. Keep up the good work,. Jake, UK guy,
BTW, All those times she turns and looks she’s actually looking at her grandmother who’s standing off to the side and checking her reaction when she knows she’s just done really good! Lol
The older lady you saw after Angelina finished is her grandma, Mery. Grandma Mery was a child prodigy herself. Mery is a well renowned painter and poet and she has had a major influences on Angela’s love of jazz and blues. Grandma Mery is also the one that put together and videoed many of Angelina’s earlier performances. It was Grandma Mery that videoed Angelina’s six year old studio performance of Tom Jones’ song, “I Who Have Nothing”.
Love you! 😂You GET her! 👏🏻Crazy, right?! I found her when she was 7 & made all the Norwegian judges weep. Btw, your voice is nothing to sneeze at, young man👍🏻.
Pay real close attention to Angelina at the very beginning and make note of her mental and physical preparation just before she starts singing it shows just how deeply Angelina gets into a song and yes it is magic Angelina magic.
Thank you again for that fun & wonderful reaction to Angie. This was filmed by her grandma (the one at the end) when she was 12 at the studio for her album "It's Magic" which she completed when she was 12. I love Angie take on this song here & at the judges cut for NGT when she was 7 turning 8. AGT semi finals “Goodbye yellow brick road” by Elton John ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-4XOMskgN8w4.html Angie's 13 here.
A top performance by A.J. What's notable about this is the point of development captured of her as a female and diva. Though only 11, she imbues her superb singing with a mature emotional content, exploring a budding sensuality, not as a child anymore, but as one on the cusp of womanhood. Encouraged, I think, by her grandmother in the studio filming, to explore this sensuality in the lyrics, A.J. still shows, though, in their interactions, her state as an innocent adolescent. This is a special and remarkable video of ANGELINA THE GREAT: We won't be able to see this transition from child to young woman anymore now in her career at the age of 15. What I love of this vid also is A.J.'s attire which is quite bohemian. Her "herbal" crown is darling. I wish she would continue exploring this bohemian style.
Angelina in this song has been absolutely insane!!!!!!!! The feeling has arrived zenith!!!!! Absolute absolute absolute!!!!!!!Superstar and Incomparable!!!!! All big stars : Kaput !!!!!!!!!
If she wanted, she could also be an Academy AWARD WINNING ACTRESS.She puts across the emotions of a song more realistic than any singer I have ever heard
I believe she is reading this as she is singing it. And the talent to do that her age is insane. We are in for a great treat when she gets in her full voice in a few more years. And she can hold her own to anyone now. And that is crazy what are we in for when she sang I put a spell on you she put one on all of us. God bless
Comparing from the first acapella version in the age of 8: there it was a pure, serious rendition, a life experience about, how people can feel, what they are confronted with, the emotion about it. Done wih the tools of a little girl. Just unreal. And it showed her love for Billie Holiday. Here now, she has develoved, sho got more versatile, her tools already the ones, of a young woman (Maybe, because she grew so fast ann was really tall already) The rendition was breathtaking too, but now she is playing around with her voice a bit, it sounds effortless, and you still can feel her adoration for Billie. (And she loves her Grandma)
0 seconds ago The cool thing is there’s a video of Angelina in the studio at the age of 6. She loves to sing & never gets nervous.. There’s a number of videos where she sings for small events. ✔️Check out (Angelina Jordan concert 7 years old) & (Angelina Jordan concert (At Last) 2014📌📌📌
