Angelina Jordan - If I Were A Boy (Piano Diaries by Toby gad) 

Thanks so much for the reaction to our angel Angelina..she is simply the best…👍👏

This cover is glorious, it lets her voice absolutely shine. Thanks to Toby for asking AJ to sing this reinvented cover of his song for his Piano Diaries album. Toby is quoted saying, “Working with Angelina has been nothing short of inspiring. Her ability to channel profound emotion through her voice adds a whole new depth to the song.” They are also working on other songs for AJ. This will be huge for her. After 16 years of practice Angelina is all grown up and has now arrived. Please subscribe to AJ's channel - she deserves it. And don't forget Toby Gad as well.

Great reaction! I think Angelina really justifies the name Girl of 1000 Voices. She has so many vocal and musical tools to draw from, she'll never sound same-old. She clearly loves to explore, and this new venture with Toby Gad proves that she's exploring yet again, following her EP and Vegas performances. Amazing Angelina does it again! Our Barefoot Princess. 💞💗💛

Girl is very good for sure

This is not by Angelina but by Toby Gad ... the pianist .. interpreted by Beyoncé .. now interpreted by Angelina. Toby is the "real deal"

This song was co written by Toby Gad (piano player in the video) and artist BC Jean and made famous by Beyoncé. Gad is a producer/songwriter and just released an album called Piano Diaries which includes past songs he cowrote. He asked various artist to perform the songs including Angelina. Angelina performed this song in London just over a week ago as part of an event honoring songwriters of which Gad was one of the honoraries. She also performed it a few nights later at an awards show. Angelina also wrote some songs with Toby. One of them Bad Valentine is supposed to be released in a few months.

Tobias "Toby" Gad is a German music producer and songwriter. His biggest success to date was All of Me by John Legend. Another big success was Big Girls Don't Cry (Fergie). He has also worked for artists such as Beyoncé (If I Were a Boy), Madonna, Brandy, Natasha Bedingfield, Mandy Capristo, Shakira, Nick Carter, Donna Summer, Selena Gomez, Sandra, Demi Lovato (Skyscraper) etc.... In addition to three Grammys and numerous other awards, Toby Glad has 34 gold, 104 platinum and two diamond albums. I'm just a fan of Angelina, not a professional, all that matters to me is what I hear, I find my peace. 👣💯 *AJ* 💯👣

Thank you Mr. J, love Angelina's take on this song. It was 1st sung by BC Jean, one of the 2 cowriters and then a hit by Beyonce. Angelina of course adds her flair of emotions which gives it more feels.

Yeah, you're completely right. This is Angelina's new Original. I didn't know this song before either. That nice pianist Co wrote it and some singer called Beyonce already sang it some 15 years ago. Some people heard it since then (not me). So, you're right, it's Angelina's new Original ;))

So very beautiful, and it keeps getting better each time I listen. At this point, I am mesmerized by anything Angelina.

Song from Toby Gad, popularized by Beyonce in 2008.

Angelina and Toby have been working together writing songs! They will be releasing their new single in the next few months, the song is Bad Valentine! 🇳🇴🇺🇸

Nice reaction! On the piano is the co-writer of the song, Toby Gad. Just to let you know, the other co-writer of the song, BC Jean, was the first to sing the song as well as the person the song came from. Per Toby, they played it for Beyonce one day and she really wanted to sing and use this song, and the rest you say is history. Angelina and Toby have been working together for a while now and are creating new music for her to sing. They teased a song at a special event called Bad Valentine and it should be coming out within a few months. This collaboration is awesome! The Piano Diaries is Toby's project of other singers singing his most famous songs. Angelina of course is singing this song made famous by Beyonce. Who is Toby Gad? Gad is a German music producer and songwriter based in Los Angeles. He is known for co-writing songs including John Legend's biggest hit, "All of Me", the fifth-highest certified single in RIAA history, and for co-writing and producing "Big Girls Don't Cry" by Fergie and "If I Were a Boy" by Beyoncé. Other notable works include "Skyscraper" for Demi Lovato, "Who You Are" for Jessie J, "Untouched" for The Veronicas, "A Year Without Rain" for Selena Gomez & the Scene, "Don't Hold Your Breath" for Nicole Scherzinger, "Love You More" for JLS, and "I Do" for Colbie Caillat.

Thanks for your nice reacton to this epic perfornance. This is not a cover, but Angelina's version made for her commissioned by the songwriters "BC Jean" and "Toby Gad" himself to perform with Angelina Jordan's rendition and interpretation of the song. This song has been released in two completely different versions in terms of instrumentation. 👌👌😀😀😀😀😊😊👍👍👍👍

The next one to be released, Bad Valentine, is a true original, cowritten with Toby Gad (who wrote this one) and really is fire :)

Angelina DOES keep getting better and better, so you`re right. Just on point 😉👍And consider that it willl go on like that for a few years still, - even thinking of that makes goosbumps appear, even under my feet. She is a master of her craft, no doubt. BTW - talking about feet - did you get it? I do like so much that Angelina lately is stating it very "laud & clear", as she make her point of performing with bare feet - like as she 👠👠walks in to the "stage" - then shoes off 👣 and ready to perform. 🤗

Hi Mr.J, thanks for your reaction, Великолепный голос Angelina Jordan. Странно, но та же песня приобрела еще более глубокий смысл. Наверное не нужно сравнивать двух великих исполнительниц. Потрясающая инструментальная группа. Фортепиано, виолончель - очень круто. Спасибо Toby Gad! Эту песню можно перевернуть по-другому: If I Were a girl. Я думаю, эта песня будет актуальна для многих из нас. Magnificent voice of Angelina Jordan. its strange, the same song took on an even deeper meaning. There is probably no need to compare two great singers. Amazing instrumental group. Piano, cello - very cool. Thanks Toby Gad! This song can be turned around in another way: If I Were a girl. I think, this song will be relevant to many of us.

This was a Beyonce song but it is now an Angelina song. !!!!!

Angelina did not write this song - it was written by Toby Gad and BC Jean and first sang by BC Jean and then Beyonce (who had a big hit from it ). However, Angelina and Toby are collaborating on original music to come out later in 2024 - their first original together is titled Bad Valentine.

Written by Toby Gad and B C Jean in 2008. Sung by Beyonce,.. It is about a relationship gone bad.

Now go under her released menu and you will see yet another version it has a RED background. Full instruments. Drums bass guitar and more full production. Check out!

🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

Angelina's new song she did with Toby as well is now available. James Thiel has it on his channel. The song is Bad Valentine. I think you'll love it

👍👍 Well,, Sir there is a total different style that they did,, it's on her "ANGELINA JORDAN OFFICIAL" it's more of a reto-pop theme to it (To me),,, instead of this classical-Jazz I hear in this one,,,,, So she actually got 2 Awards/Grammy's covered in the music world,,, 👣🌬🌎

There's also an audio version with more instrumentals out: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-DF2jNDt9md8.html There will likely also be a video for that soon, as short snippets have been shown on their socials, but it's not available yet. I prefer this stripped down version here, though. Unfortunately, the video has some sync issues, but the audio performance itself is great. The playlist this is contained in has three more recordings of live presentations she did in the last couple of weeks, prior to the original release.

This was recorded by Reba Mcentire in 2010 and was a great hit before Beyonce, this is the best version

Hi! Please, react MIYAGI / Narrativ, Голгофа, Пронзай... it's real music❤😊❤

No Beyonce sang it as well
