This is a fan favorite of those who have been Angelina fans 4 a long time!! If this was released, it would hit # 1 at record speed. Wins Grammy's left & right.
So true! While I love her phenomenal performances from this year (incredible!), there is special potency to her earlier masterpieces. This is in my top 5 of her earlier years!
Without a doubt, her vocals in this are like nothing she has ever done before or after, and let us remember she was 10 here. Had her mom allowed this masterpiece to be released, it would have been a chart topping record for sure. It has to be related to the breathy releases she learned from Billie Holiday but it is far more than that. It just has a mesmerizing effect on the listener. Hoping that one day it will be formally released, for it's that great a song.
@@pattydonohue5452 - Yea, but it took her 8 1/2 years to get to this point if we note her stating that she began singing jazz at 1 1/2 when she appeared on the TV show 'The View' when she was 8. LOL !
This is an Original❗️Experts agree, that “I’m Still Holding Out For You” is an Angelina Original! An original, is any song which was not recorded by any artist before, it may be composed by the person singing it, or by someone else. Baby FuzZ and a three others wrote this song. Thus, he did the “Cover” that Angelina had already recorded in 2016, at 10, and published prior. Uploaded Nov. 11, 2018, Demo or not! Sorry, his offical video, published 12/9/18, (two years later) was met with very little fanfare. He has since, given her Copyright and his blessing to make a proper recording of the song. 🌺
Jeeze, 10 years old, and can emote and perform a song like this. What a talent. LOOOOve your reactions Ray. Its a two for, her stupendous vocals and your original hysterical reactions.
You said out loud what most of us think, "let someone hurt this young lady and send me the address..." So many great covers by this young lady, and this is still my favorite. Ten years old! No words can possibly describe this young woman, yet, we still make fools of ourselves trying to do just that.
Vibe, It’s nearly incomprehensible to realize that this is Angelina at ten years old. I know of no other ten year old female vocalist that can do what Angelina did in this performance.
Vibe, Angelina’s absolutely breath taking brilliance is going to hit the music industry like a Super Nova. Angelina’s gift brings people of all ages and ethnicities together. We are Angelina’s angels and we all love her for who and what she is. We have adopted her and we want to protect God’s beautiful angel.
Let us all hope and pray that Angelina never gets bored of her dream and continues to rise in that proper trajectory... Too many great performers get lazy, At least for a while and then I forced to try it come back.
This is my favorite song of all, and she was ten when she did this. This is not a covert either. This was a demo she did at ten and the guy who wrote it put his version out a few years later. A month before he released his version someone (Who I think hated his guts) leaked this version and made his sound like...... well, I will let you decide, just look for the Baby Fuzz version of this song.
You have not seen nothing yet you need to go back to the very beginning and check her out from age six to where you saw her first. That’s where it all began.
She was 10 on this video. Because of the subject matter of this song having to do with suicide, she will be ever sing this again, at her family's insistence. It was never the less a brilliant performance by AJ.
It has never been confirmed by Angelina, her family, the producers or the composer that there are any references to suicide in this song. That is an unsubstantiated rumor that has gone around since this was released as a fan video. All that is known is that Angelina and her family have said she will never sing it again, but they have not given a reason why.
@@robertcarlson2807 I stand corrected. One of her reactors told what I had said on my previous comment. That makes more sense than what I had heard, because if AJ's family felt that way, she wouldn't have recorded it in the first place. Thanks for the info. Still hard for me to believe she was only 10 when she recorded it. What a voice!
@@richardduffy3115 And then Richard there is the other fact that this is not really a demo product... This is a fully completely produced final product.... Write down to the details of vinyl record crackle at the end of the song. Which causes many to rightly deduce that there was some type of contractual issue issue involved. And regardless of what Brandon Lowrey says, It probably had to do with him not wanting her botting her version released. But that is just logical supposition, Not yet confirmed fact.
To me, there is a delineation between Angelina aged below 15 and her singing from 15 to now. To me, this song, Fly Me to the Moon, and Feelin' Good are her 3 best songs in the pre-15 years. And to hear her now - My Funny Valentine, Suspicious Minds, and I Have Nothing (all Grammy-worthy IMO), there is no telling how far this young lady will go.
That little girl walking toward the moon is a scene from her 10 year old video of "Fly Me To The Moon". She performed this song at.........10.....YEARS.......OLD
Yes sir. Helen of Troy had a face that launched a thousand ships, but Angelina has the voice and soul that will launch millions of protectors. Simply awesome. Thanks for the reaction. Believe she was 10 and read she is not going to do this song again. Luv ya Bro and all you do to promote Angelina
Angelina Jordan is from Norway. English is her second language and you'd never know it by listening to her. I'd like to listen to her do Etta James Stormy Weather.
She has become the best all-round singer in the world, period! 16 years old. Thanks also to Republic Records and the team around her. And thanks to Angelina for letting us have old clips where you try all the time, and even play a chord wrong on the piano or guitar when you're practicing, and you choose to post it. It is what has made you the greatness you are today. No other artist does this today. Everything somehow becomes more real listening to you. Thanks for bringing real music back!
Ray you do know that Angelina was 10 when she recorded this and wasn’t released until she was 12 . It was a demo given to her by Brandon Lowry aka Sterling Fox aka Baby FuzZ who is a well established song writer. Angelina actually released this before he did ( reason for the leaked).
Angelina never released this, somebody leaked the demo; it was taken down. But it was now out in YT land, so it kept on coming back. (Brandon loves it, btw.)
She is singing another writers feeling. She says she would drown herself for this love. Much older song for her life she is only 12. She just sang it because her voice is the best
Little background story. This song was leaked and the video is fanmade. She never sang this elsewhere but in this audio Baby Fuzz wrote this song and made a demo to sell it to someone else. The people he wrote it with also worked with Angelina. My theory is they took the demo to Angelina. Angelina gave it a spin and didn't like it enough and let it go. Baby Fuzz decided to release it himself and at about the same time this version was leaked. Angelina continued to work with those people and that lead to Shield. But yeah it is crazy good this one :-)
Brother, you don't have to go with the majority, always get a recommendation that you won't find, see Angelina sing James Brown's song live on stage in the song "I feel good" she'll blow your hat off your head and she's only 9-10 years old there 😱 👑 🗣🎙🎷
I want to live longer to see what happens as AJ becomes and adult and all she accomplishes. Prayer going out for AJ every day for that Shield she needs as she swims among the barracudas.
How are you doing? Thank you for this reaction. We love the healing in what Angelina does with her voice. I love her lower register in this song, but then contrasted.. 💜 I think she takes these love songs and transmutes the meanings to something more positive than you are saying. Like she loves her grandparents and family..... She loves singing and the muse for her arrangements.
Awesome reaction and Ridgemanron is correct and Kudos to the fab who put the video together! The photo with A.J. wearing the Crown is the most appropriate photo that I ever have seen of her, God Bless!
Yeah, she's pretty good, all right. I love this song the way Angelina Jordan sings it. I respect her family's reasons for not releasing it, though. Great reaction as always, Ray! Okay, I gotta roll up my sleeves for the next suggestion. Hmmm....You wanna feel some happy feels? There is no music video on earth that can give you those feels like Angelina's music video cover of When You're Smiling. Here's the link: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-bLuNQ6s7fCQ.html
Thanks for reacting to another one of Angelina's gems. There is some controversy behind this which has led to it officially being held back. That is a shame because I agree this would be a #1 hit today. If you want to be shocked (yes, Angelina can STILL shock me), check My Everest live at Kongsberg: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-DYVxnY06BWw.html

Another great reaction Ray, love what you do. BTW, did you notice at the end of the video Angelina waving to her home planet, she is not of this Earth for sure. Cheers Ray.
Please, react to her amazing cover on Mount Everest live on her latest concert in Norway. Simply amazing, and a lot better than the original.

Two words? Two letters will suffice, as Angelina fans are so well behaved. But I think even angels can say FU! 😆 Your reactions are very entertaining. It is great to have a heart that keeps on beating even if one’s breath it taken away, but on a daily basis also for doing the dishes and taking out the trash…
