Please subscribe to Angelina's Official RU-vid channel. It is FREE to subscribe and it helps her more than you know.
Saving the best for last,WOW!!!Top tier talent,most "superstar" vocalists fear acapella,and especially to post on their channel.This is incredible,love having the music easing in and building with the vocals. Look forward to you both onstage together at the Grammys in the near future.
@@Zack-Hates-RU-vid she did a great job. I think her authentic voice has yet to hatch. will be interesting to see what the big song is that catches fire for her.. this is a good look for her, but her accompaniment was way too stiff - looked like they were preparing for court. anyway...till next tune ...
@@billpaine6241 she's talked about taking classes at Juilliard - hoping some are in person and then she plays some small local venues (I'm 2 hrs north🙂) in between classes.
@@captain_context9991 Except she said more than once her dream was to become a superstar. My hope is her dreams come true no matter what they are, and that she has a fulfilling joyful musical career - if she's happy, superstar or not, we'll doubtless get to enjoy undeserved amounts of amazing music.
@@SteveAckerman-ly3qg "Superstar" Not in the sense that Taylor Swift and Rhianna are superstars. Look at Sissel Kyrkjebø who was the previous absolute prodigy from Norway. She also choose this kind of superstardom. And not the pop music route. However, sadly this piece here was the most average performance I have ever seen Angelina do. This was all over the place and a bit of a train wreck. The original song drowns out in all kinds of messy performance. Like she has listened to 3 different teachers telling her different things.
Wow Angelina, this sounded great! The acoustics in the church, the music, and your voice was amazing! We Angels knew it would sound really good, but boy, after hearing it, this video gave me goosebumps! You and Toby are a great team! I can't wait for more music from the both of you!
this live video shows the very rare raw natural talent of Angelina, not only is the texture of her voice absolutely unique and memorable but her expression and control, her authenticity in her live performance makes her a once-in-a-decade artist
Totally agree with everything you say about Angelina,but for one thing. Imho she's a once-in-a-lifetime artist.No skimpy outfits,no dancers or theatrics,no autotune or pitch control.Just pure unadulterated talent.For me she is at her absolute best with just her instrument,a piano and cello.♥♥♥♥♥
Yes Toby - this why Angels everywhere make their plans and devote their time and spend their money for the opportunity to see and hear Angelina perform live - she makes it worth every effort🔥❤️🔥
Terrific! I'm just a regular guy and I love the way you sing but I know musicians who surround you take so much more into consideration and they are absolutely floored when they work with you. Keep up the great work and I can hardly wait until you show up in the greater New York City area to perform. I'll probably pitch a tent on the sidewalk waiting to get house tickets for the Show.
A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!! Dear Angelina, this is probably my favourite version 🥰 What a voice and emotion! You are truly unique. I really hope you two continue your collaboration and sincerely think that "Bad Valentine" is a HIT, Grammy-worthy song. Hope your team and Toby give it a proper, big promotion. You go girl! 😍
So many reactors said of the Piano Diaries version, she's in a church, the acoustics will be great. Only to realize that it was pre-recorded audio. Some thought it was recorded here but post produced in the studio to add the additional strings. Some might have thought she was just lip-syncing. Well now we have the actual recording, and the acoustics are fantastic, and yes Angelina, that was good!
See this is what I was expecting from the last video you did in this church. Was so excited for a live performance and instead we got a studio performance mimed in this beautiful space. This one is real. You can tell with the natural reverb, sounds of the bow on the cello, sounds of the foot pedals going down from the piano and the wonderful wash of everything coming together as one heavenly sound. Thank you for doing it for real. This is definitely the best version of this song.
Signature voice, not a thousand different voices. Angelina Jordan's unique vocal quality indeed sets her apart in the music industry. Her ability to convey deep emotions and tell a story through her singing is what gives her that distinctive signature sound. This sound is instantly recognizable to her fans, who can identify her voice from just the first few notes of a song. It's a testament to her skill and the connection she has forged with her audience. Her voice carries a blend of soulfulness and maturity that belies her young age, making her performances unforgettable and her style inimitable. This singularity in the music world is what often leads to a lasting legacy and inspires countless aspiring artists. There is only one Angelina Jordan, and only one signature storytelling voice unlike anyone else on the face of the earth, not a thousand different voices, if that were true, she would not have a signature sound. Having a signature sound means as soon as she sings the first few notes you know it is AJ.
I agree 100%. My niece and her family live in Las Vegas and I wish I’d known, in advance that Angelina was going to perform there at one of the casinos!!!! I’d have tried to buy 5 tickets ❤️…. That would have been a night to remember, for a lifetime
Young lady, you are now in Enrique Caruso territory, with your emotive, intuitive understanding of music. Many have said you take their breath away, let me flip the script and say you have given this human being the breath of life, with your healing and transformative sounds. The Angelic community will follow your lead in your continued musical endeavors, with patient anticipation. Best regards ♾Rb
Angie, everytime you release something new you blow me away, and i've been an Angel for 8 years. You are absolutely the best of the best. You make our world a better place. Blessings to you and yours. ❤
What a fantastic version this is Angie...and this was just practice!! This was quite a joy to listen to from our beautiful Angelina....We love you so much 💖💖💖💖💖💖
I start my day with you while drinking my coffee. Every day for 8 years now. And at least every other day you manages to make me cry. . You are imo the best singer on the planet. I am 71 y old and have never heard a singer like you in my whole life. Your voice touches my heart and cleanses my soul. Greating from germany, dear Angelina Jordan Astar.
@@billdaigle6610 Oh yes, I have enjoyed Eva's voice very often. Just yesterday I heard her version of "Somewhere over the rainbow". Eva is also one of the few singers whose voice touches me deep inside. Unfortunately she died much too early. I count her among the great artists. RIP dear Eva! Thank you my friend for giving me the opportunity to express this.
Angie... what to say, thank you for this new and particular version, I would listen endlessly to your wonderful and powerful voice with that incredible low register of yours and those wonderful progressions, I admire your fantastic musical sensitivity more and more, it seems impossible, but every song, simple or complex, which you rediscover becomes a new and splendid song. For me you are simply unique and with an incredible melodic perception. I love this composed and passionate performance, it is absolutely healing for the soul and the soft background accompaniment of the piano and cello gives a wonderful and silky backdrop, until the moment of that wonderful whispered final phrase "...but you're just a boy".💛🧡❤
I call your attention to the 15 seconds or so of black at the end. In honor of her recently passed great grandmother? She has done this before when singers such as Aretha Franklin have passed. Perhaps that’s why she decided to release this gorgeous version as well. So very in character for this beautiful soul.
Angelina graduated from the parking garage to this beautiful place - just AJ’s voice and then some simple piano and cello - if anyone had a doubt, this is just insane how good she is here❤❤
Just when you think you’ve heard her deliver perfection, Angelina finds a way to improve it. No instruments needed but the finest vocal instrument in the world. Just add a parking garage or cathedral and hear a voice that soars to angelic realms. Thank you Angelina and Toby for this sublimely beautiful rendition! Words fail!
Incredible - what emotion - what fantastic story telling - what a voice - what an inspiration - what a role model - the future of music has AJ out in front leading the way. 🥰
*Seen her on NGT at 7 when she burst on the scene in white & here she comes a long way like an angel in white with those vocals & beauty. More of Angelina in the years to come.*
Angelina is completely comfortable singing in this type if setting.The more she can feel the song The better it gets .Iver and over she strives to improve We must let her know she reached perfection years ago.Everything since has been Epic and Sublime
