Angelina Jordan reaction - Gloomy Sunday + Bohemian Rhapsody  

Angelina é fantástica 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🙏🙏🙏

One of my favorites of Angelina is Summertime! Oh.. and Bang Bang!!

Bang Bang, the 2rd song of her NGT performances will blow your mind!

very good reaction,, I still enjoy watching first time reactors, To bohemian rhapsody... The best norway's got talent performance was probably. " bang bang" She's now 17 and just released an EP , It's charting on itunes.,..... I think a good spot for you to go Would be when she was. 14 and wrote her first original a. " million miles" would enjoy your reaction to that....It's a song for her grandfather who passed away.. #ANGELS

love your reaction this girl is a star

You really should react to the other 3 song on Norways got talent of Angelina, i know you think Angelina sounded cute and kiddish, but that is Exactly how Billy Holidays Voice sounds in the original song and Angelina Nailed it at 7yrs old, the comparison is Uncanny

Great reaction Roni...nice to see you reacting with Angelina...a generational talent the likes of which haven't been here on this planet in decades....🥰🥰

Great reaction ,I envy your coming adventure discovering her mass of out of this world covers not to mention her own compositions as well , she is a master level song writer and arranger.

From now on, you are destined to embark on an ethereal journey guided by her angelic presence, promising you immense enjoyment along the way.

Incredible Angelina !

Looks like she got you right in the feels!. Be well.

summertimeI agree, but you should check out Angelina's performances of "Bang Bang" and "Summertime" to appreciate her tonal qualities and musicality.

Hi yah Roni, you better slip into your floppy ears, cuz this is an epic rabbit hole. Angelina covers them all from Billie Holiday to Elvis, Adele, Amy Winehouse, Whitney Houston , The Beatles and even Michael Jackson. There are her originals too. I'm lovin' YOU and your channel!

Roni, your voice is absolutely beautiful!

Hi there Roni. Great reaction though. The two videos you have reacted to made more then 95 millions views..... In a 10 years career Angelina did more then 180 covers and 6 originals plus the just released EP with 6 specacular songs. I consider Angelina the Queen of Modern Vintage. Her artistry Is out of this world. Hope you do more reactions. Cheers from Italy

It is nice seeing Angelina go from young to older and see the difference, but since you weren't familiar with the song or original singer, her is the link to a virtual duet done by one of Angelina's biggest fans. His channel is where people go to get videos of AJ. Angelina on stage at Norway's Got Talent with Billie Holiday's face off to the right, both singing in real time. Take notice to how close to exact this 7 year old is beside one of the greats. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-H_5_AT_N-pg.html Oh, and just wait until you react to the songs on her new EP. 😊

Great reaction! 😮😂 The best is yet to come. Hang on to your feels. See you soon.

You stopped it before the best judge reaction. The lady, screen right, said, after Angelina went off stage, "It's like she's been drinking whiskey since she was one year old".

For her to sing Gloomy Sunday like that at 7 . Yes of course she was cute but do that at 7 was cute and pretty impressive. Check out her other songs in NWGT . Pretty amazing for a tiny little one. No one expected you to say she sounds like a grown up 😂😂😂

FYI, AJ has been rearranging many of the covers she sings since age 8.

So glad you reacted to these 2 songs!! Wow wow wow is right.

you need to react to the rest of her performances on Norways got talent each performance gets better and better

Someone asked her mom if she cried during her audition because she was proud of her and she said it was because she knew she had lost her to the world.

Angelina will end up being on the Mount Rushmore of all time singers. Enjoy the ride. There is another amazing singer, her name is Morgan James. She did a cover of Aerosmith Dream On, which you will be blown away. Enjoy.

Roni, I think if you were to watch Billie holidays singing Gloomy Sunday you would be jaw dropped at how incredibly similar they sound, it’s remarkable, and may give you a different perspective on Angelina’s performance. Peace

There is a wonderful documentary available on RU-vid about Angelina's early years called Born to Sing! Highly worth the reaction!

Hey Roni! When you get chance check this out!!!! I want to thank you, also you may not have heard this one from 2020 when she was 14 years old.This song is insanely good. TRXD song she did with them called (Above The Water) Another amazing song from Angelina Jordan. No End to her talent, she takes anyone vibe and makes it outrageous. Love her.

Try Yellow Brick Road Next.

Loved your reaction..can I suggest you listen to Billie Hollidays version of Gloomy Sunday, then immediately re listen to Angelina’s version..actually, they’re eerily similar..check it out,.you’ll see what I mean. Looking forward to sharing your AJ journey..btw I have no problem you giving us your honest feelings about any performance..that’s why we watch you 🙏

As others have no dobut already said (not bothering to check), I can understand your reaction to her "Gloomy Sunday" audition, but you will want to watch (and please react to) her remaining three performances in the competition (see, for example, the playlist "React to Angelina Jordan on Norway's Got Talent" on my channel), because I _know_ you will be shocked at how much she improved from one performance to the next.

...one of the best Angelina Jordan reactions I've seen so far (and I have seen over 11,000!) ...unfortunately you are far avay from my hometown - but if you are visiting Berlin/Germany we have to talk about about Agelina 😁 Best wishes from Berlin/Germany and stay well and healthy Andreas 😎

I felt the same way about the songs, if you get the chance watch her performance on Norways got talent of Summertime, you will see the obvious talent.

You may want to hang around the 10 to 13 age of Angelina's catalog for a bit pure vocal mastery before what her voice sounds like now at 17.

The song on Norway's Got Talent had a crummy sound system! I thought the same as you when I watched it, but then I watched her sing Fly Me To The Moon on The View, later that same year, and she was just really good no matter what her age, though still age 8! Then at 10 on a full stage with cameras rolling, big band playing, before a large audience, singing Feeling Good, she is as polished as any adult! You have done a reaction to the same song, but outdoors!

You only had one more judge to hear and his question and her answer are precious. ...just sayin'

Hello Roni, thank you for your reaction to Angelina. I just wanted to comment on you saying that on gloomy Sunday you just saw she was mostly cute and adorable. Some of us are visually acute and that becomes a large portion of 0:06 our perception of what we are witnessing. In the case with Angelina on this particular song, it's hard to get past her cuteness, but there was something more going on there. First of all her pitch was perfect, second of all her capture of Billie Holiday style was uncanny, and her concentration and emotional awareness of what she was singing was literally on an adult level. And a lot of times with Angelina you have to close your eyes and just listen to her sing so that you can get past how young she is. If you haven't done so yet, you should listen to all of her performances on Norway's got talent. She will get you passed how cute she is at seven and eight years old, and totally impress you on her vocal ability at that age. The song that finally won her to contest was Summertime, and I would strongly advise you to at least watch that one from when she was 8 years old, though she was still cute in that performance. Loved your reaction, thank you

Imagine being the sound guy helping her learn to use the microphone 😊

I haven't heard anyone express that Angelina has no talent...it's clear for all to see that she oozes it. But what got me hooked on Angelina was the tremendous strides she made at 9, 10, 11, 12 and even 13 in her vocal technique, her ability to emote with such passion, and her artistry. And on top of all of that, she is just a wonderful human being full of love and empathy for those in need. I am glad you are going to continue down Angelina's path. We are here with you.

Anybody regardless of age that can emulate Billie Holiday is Amazing. Now factor in that Angelina is 7 years old. Her Dad said it best. She sings jazz like a God

Within a year of the first video her voice had improved 100-fold, she has done over 150 videos on RU-vid, and each is a treasure.

Let me take this opportunity to say to you: "Welcome to the wonderful world of Angelina Jordan!" It looks like you are about to join us around the world on her musical journey. It will be an experience you could never have imagined. Roni, what I get from watching this video is you concentrate on the talent of the artist and that is fine. And, btw, I love your format and particularly the "up close" video effect. But, this needs to be said. What you hear when you are listening to Angelina sing 'for you' is the love in her voice which originates in her soul. It touches your heart because your heart recognizes her love and jumps on it. And once it's there it will never leave you. During 'Bohemian Rhapsody' you had to refrain from starting to tear up during the song. The message your heart sends to the rest of your body is goosebumps, starting to tear up (with an urge to cry) and usually finding it very difficult to speak during her performance. Roni, my point being is that Angelina is not only vocally and artistically incredibly talented but she is also a very humble, kind, caring and loving human being. The sound you hear cannot be manufactured or taught, it is real, very real and you will be missing out unless you find out 'who she is'. Roni, she's special. For example (unless you know already) why she sings barefoot is a story you need to know. I look forward to more Angelina reactions from you. I just subscribed.

Great, thanks! You only have 5 early originals and 190+ covers to catch up on before you arrive at her original EP of 6 songs released earlier this month. Would love to see you get into it all! Start with her 2nd performance for Norway's' Got Talent, "I'm a Fool to Want You" sung a cappella followed up with the same song at 11 for her first album "It's Magic" with the Norwegian Military Band.

I'm not embarresed to say it, But I have listened to her every day for going on 3 years or more now. My Wife has it just as bad as me as well. It's an amazing affliction to share. :D

Our barefoot princess... There is no definition that does justice to such genius... I would love to see her singing a song by Tom Jobim. 😇

I can't explain it. But when you start listening to Angelina it is like healing for the soul and you can't get enough of her. I hope you make the journey to the world of Angelina. And we are all by your side doing it

Wow! If Roni had said that the celebrity judge on the left side of the panel was her sister, I’d believe it. They look a lot alike.

Thank you for the double hit. I suspect she hasn't really won you over quite yet, so take the ten year jump...seven to 17. Listen to her original "Diamond". She'll either have you for always or never.

You have to understand that between 7 and 13 she has more experience then most older stars......guest singing around Europe and Asia and her own home town so she has lots of experience at 13......

Angelina’s voice and her total being is like an ocean wave or soft summer breeze that takes you in and rushes you to places you have rarely experienced. Your heart rate increases, you find it difficult to catch your breath, chills and shells engulf you. You are now addicted to Angelina Jordan the finest story telling vocalist I have ever experienced in years of listening to the best the industry has to offer.

The minute AJs mother wiped away the tears of joy for her daughter, she also realized that she would have to share her with the rest of world! Why she selected the song; AJs mother was shocked find AJ still awake beyond midnight and asked her mother for her Tablet (or what ever device was available) and AJ went on YT and found what she would describe as a beauty woman singing Gloom Sunday; AJ loved the melody. Sidebar if her mother truly knew the meaning of the song AJ probably would not be singing this song. Gloom Sunday was written in the 1930 during the Great Depression and was call the Hungarian Suicide Song. At the time some blamed the song for a rise in suicides. Note: AJ has not to the best of my knowledge sung Gloomy Sunday again!

Love your reactions!

Gloomy Sunday. Here is a quote from Angelina (7y) from an interview with TV2 after her Auditions NTG 2014. "The reason I chose this song is completely random. I love jazz, but" Gloomy Sunday "was random. It was a night I could not sleep and my mother was stressed that I was awake long after midnight. Then I borrowed my mom's iPad where I wanted to listen to jazz on RU-vid before I fell asleep. Then came a picture of a beautiful lady screaming at the sky and with her eyes closed. I heard the song "Gloomy Sunday" that night and then I had to hear it every day. I love the melody. I understood well what the text was about because I know English well. Every time I sang it I felt something special about it, it's hard to explain in words. When I sang it for mom, she said that this song is nice, but that it was incredibly sad song. " ♥👣👸🏻🎷

The live performances for the actual shows of the NGT competition are not to be missed, though. Bang Bang and Summertime are really something.

The support she have from her family is determinant for where she is now, and it´s very well expressed in the question her mother asks before she go on stage: are you ready inside ? (simply beautiful).

Thanks for taking the time to share 2 more Angelina reactions with us. What was amazing to me about Angelina's Gloomy Sunday performance at age 7 was her stage presence. After being a little nervous during her short interview - once she started singing, she sounded just like a seasoned pro. Following that performance with Angelina's reinterpretation of the Queen classic Bohemian Rhapsody at age 13 really showcased her incredible growth as a singer & performer. And - as you noted - at age 13 Angelina's emotional impact is unbelievable. I strongly believe that Angelina has the innate GOD given gift to be able to emote the essence of each song she sings direct to our hearts & souls allowing us to also deeply FEEL her music as it flows through her. Btw - even though it wasn't shown in the Bohemian Rhapsody video, Angelina did receive the golden buzzer from Heidi Klum. They became good friends & still are today. In fact Heidi recently selected Angelina (now 17) to perform at GNTM (Germany's Next Top Model) & Angelina delivered an incredible performance of the Amy Winehouse classic "Valerie". Looking forward to more of your Angelina reactions. Thank you. And may GOD continue to watch over & bless Angelina Jordan.

🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

Roni, I do believe your doppelgänger is the female judge on the far left. Unless, of course, you've been moonlighting as a Norwegian talent judge! 😂

A great video to introduce Angelina’s family, When you react to Bohemian Rhapsody take notice during her performance they highlight audience members in the front row. That is Angelina's Family. From left to right Her uncle and manager Michael Astar, her little sister Juliette, her mother Sarah Astar and her grandmother Mery Zamani. Notice her little sister crossing her fingers as the performance starts and later her mother wipe tears from her eyes. Also remember she said she had waited 10 years to sing for Simon. When she was 3 years old she was begging her mother to go on 'that Simon show'. ♥👣👸🏻🎷

I've just subscribed to your channel. I've already watched a lot of your reaction video. if you like to be shocked over new voices this young lady is on par with Angelina Jordan. but her voice is worlds apart from Angelina's. in a totally different way. #DianaAnkudinova #ДианаАнкудинова #showmaskgoon Can't help falling in love (Stereo) - Diana Ankudinova @ ShowMaskGoOn, 1 ep.

Her Gloomy Sunday was probably great, but it doesn't dazzle me either. On the other hand, her Summertime in the finals at NGT is among her best, and is mind bogglingly good. I don't mind that you weren't that impressed with the first song. Your reaction to Bohemian Rhapsody was worth my admission price and made up for it.

She will become the greatest storyteller since radio was invented, having the storytelling ability of Bob Dylan and the voice of Maria Callas. P.S. the arrangement belongs to her like the stage dress, created with the collaboration of her artist grandmother. She is an artist at 360° and she is only 17 years old.

Not only did Angelina get the golden buzzer from judge Heidi Klum, but she also received huge praise from the remaining members of the legendary Queen. Queen were delighted with Angelina's arrangement and shared it on Twitter with the words "WOW, what a rendition" (three years later they repeated their praise on TT in March 27th 2023 with the words "absolutely killed it".) What was unfortunately not to be Seen here, all four judges came on stage to congratulate Angelina (very rarely). 👣💯 *AJ* 💯👣 BTW, Angelina released her version of Bohemian Rhapsody with permission from Queen on January 24th, 2020 under her own label ANGELINA JORDAN INC. shortly after Angelina celebrated her 14th birthday. (to date more than 12 million listeners on Spotify alone) 🤗🤗

And Queen liked it so much the remaining members tweeted out and gave her the rights to copyright her version of the song for royalties. It's available on all the streaming services. As stated the other 3 NGT performances are worth reacting to. Most of what she has covered at the ages of 10-13 are in no way 'child like', if you listened without seeing her you'd swear she's at least 20-40 years old.

My Nf friend! So maybe a little weird okay maybe a lot weird...... but yes...... I have an Angelina addiction!!!!! Because I heard her cover Adele’s A Million Years Ago at 12 Years Old and I seen that child with just an acoustic guitar and her voice perform that song with more emotion and conviction than Adele while reading the lyrics as she sang and that to me was just as impressive as Bohemian Rhapsody because it’s stripped down to just her voice and I go somewhere completely different when I hear her sing that my friend! Hopefully you’ll see one day! And I know I mentioned Lzzy Hale and her band Halestorm and doing their song Love Bites in the Live Room but since she cut her hair Roni..... you totally remind me of Lzzy in a lot of your mannerisms and that’s kinda awesome!

And a young Angelina said early on that Billie Holiday was her biggest inspiration/influence. Sheesh, you don't expect a girl to say something like that! Also, because you're not going to check out the rest of her performances on Norway's Got Talent, you are not going to see The Jump/Change with her. After singing Gloomy Sunday and then I'm A Fool To Want You, both by Billie Holiday, her next 2 performances showed a huge leap in her singing ability. She sang the songs Bang Bang and Summertime which were fantastic. The voice you heard in Gloomy Sunday? That is long gone by the time she sang Summertime in the Finals.

Actually the Norway's Got Talent had three more song's, each progressively better (significantly) , The second sung acapella. By the 3rd song (Bang Bang) your mind gets blown. I agree the first was cute only. remember English is not her first language!... Loved your review!

You've got a lot of videos to catch up to. She did over 140 covers and now has her own music out. One of my favorites is Easy On Me by Adele. In her own music I prefer Love Don't Let Me Go.

In the Gloomy Sunday video, as little Angelina is headed out to the stage she is met by Andreas the soundman. The next Summer, TV2 got her on the outdoor stage at one of their Alsang Pa Grensen (sing along the border) shows, and there was Andreas, wiring the little girl up. Eight years later the now 16 year old (and 6' tall) Angelina was back at Alsang Pa Grensen and there was Andreas wiring her up again. I don't know her concert schedule for this summer, but I bet Andreas does

Gloomy Sunday performance was more than " adorable " it was a astonishing performance for a 7 year old as all the judges acknowledged. I guess she could have performed " twinkle twinkle little star " but she chose jazz and " Billie holiday "

💞🤗🎼👍🏼

She walked out on that stage like a lion, fearless.

Two such iconic performances, brilliant choices. She truly is one in a Billion! ( x7)

At NGT her mom Sara was asked why she was crying back stage ,,, she stated that she had just realized she had to share her baby with the world ...

I saw Her Gloomy Sunday performance 4y ago and that was the moment she caught me and don't let me go 💕 listen every day from that momen😢t and she has so much beautiful songs out for listening 🎧 Her bohemian Rhapsody shows her Genius as a complete artist as an arranger , storyteller and vocalist. She said it at the beginning, the biggest opportunity of her life 🧬. She took the risk and send her to highest level. It changed her life as Howie said. Now she's Old enough with her new EP, a fireworks 🎆

Angelina’s journey as an artist from 7 to 13 (thru 17) is all recorded on RU-vid. Well over 150 Covers by over 70 of the best known songs and artists, and she holds her own and in many cases, she improves the songs. She also has during that time five originals. I hope you get a chance to explore that incredible journey by this future Icon.

That wonderful double reaction Roni, I loved. Every time I see these two epochal interpretations of hers, I shiver again and continue to get excited, Angelina has this incredible power, every time she sing knows how to touch the strings of your soul and make them play in tune with her voice, she could be define an anime capture.💛🧡❤

Great reaction!! Please go and check out her version of Elton John's "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road - AGT Champions 2"... a wonderful performance... TX

Amazing ❤

You might have thought she was cute on her “Gloomy Sunday” audition, but once you hear her 2nd performance of “I’m a Fool to Want You”, also by Billie Holiday, which she sang a cappella to get into the semifinals, you will understand why when she won, she won with 46% of the votes in the finals out of 10 acts singing “Summertime” most notably sung by Ella Fitzgerald, and she had her first performance in front of a real audience weeks after her win on NGT and she sang Dinah Washington’s “What a Difference a Day Makes” which I consider one of her best performances, it’s incredible. What you are missing with “I Put a Spell on You” is she arranged that performance herself, and she worked with the musicians so they would accompany her the way she wanted, she got the title from those who worked with her of “The Boss” not because she was bossy, but because she knew exactly what she wanted and didn’t have any trouble communicating it to those who worked with her. Obviously she still had a child’s voice, but once you start listening to her, you don’t care!

She is the best of the best. She's unlike anything we have seen since maybe Judy Garland. But THIS girl is singing EVERYTHING,.. every kind of music out there.

About 2 years after this the youngest judge who interviewed her, Omer Bhatti, when he was visiting his long times friends at Christmas time he introduced Michael's mother to AJ's singing.

Remember last AJ video, I told you about her AGT Bohemian Rhapsody performance? ... Your Welcome 😂. She finally released her debut EP under her new label Republic Records & it's fire!!! My fav tracks & you need to hear & react to, are Diamond, Good In Goodbyes and All My Fault. What's even more mind blowing is her writing is just as fabulous as her vocals, as she stated in her live stream release that this EP consists of 6 songs she chose out of around a 100 that she's written to date in her song journal.🤯🤯

You did indeed point to the prettiest thing in the room ;-) Anyway, Angelina is a magical creature -- she's so insanely good that I sometimes find myself giggling like a lunatic at the ridiculousness of it and simultaneously crying at the emotions she conveys . . . .

Nice reaction. Angelina is indeed an extraordinary talent - born to sing, as you say. It was that Norway's Got Talent video that first put Angelina on the map. It went viral, astonishing people around the world. Billie Holiday was an iconic singer. She isn't so well known in recent times. What I think moved viewers so much with this performance is how Angelina, at seven, virtually channels Billie Holiday in this performance. You can find Billie singing this song on the internet. I suggest checking that out. You may find it gives a new and even more impressive perspective to Angelina's performance. ... Next - Watch Angelina perform I Put A Spell On You - the black & white video version.

She is a gift to the world ,trying to make it a better place

New subscriber! Lucky you, getting to experience all of Angelina Jordans masterpieces for the first time! I agree the Gloomy Sunday was amazing because of her song choice, positive demeanor and just how darn cute she was. We could tell she had something special going on even then, however. At 10 years old she performs Feeling Good. Much like her genius arraignment of Queen, check out how she presents FG live on TV with a jazz backing .

Thatroni is very beautiful

She DID get the golden buzzer from Heidi.

Continuing on your journey she is worth it she is the g.o.a.t. wild bill

I have been listening Angelina since 2014 every day ❤

Great comments on a couple of Angelina's history-making performances!! She has quite a lot of them! Enjoy the journey!

✒️...about 4 years ...every day is a "Angelina Day"...😉❤

It always tear up

Wow I so love your heartfelt reactions. Ty hun Angelina is the greatest angelic vocalist of today I love our barefoot princess 😍

Heey Roni ! 😃✨ Thank you so much for reacting to Angelina - and welcome to the Angels family! Your reactions to each of these songs were right in alignment with mine when I first heard them! Gloomy Sunday was adorable. Bohemian Rhapsody completely blew me away. I've been listening to Angelina for several years now - I've watched and heard so many of her performances (there are 100s of them). This rabbit hole is an investment in humanity and artistry and old-soul music and exquisite performance. I appreciate each of those things greatly - it's hard to imagine all of those things existing so uniquely, all wrapped in one amazing young woman. Yes, I agree with you, she gives hope to the industry and all artistic talent everywhere, by touching you in ways you just can't ever describe. I've read that you'll likely do the rest of NGT off line - that's totally fine. Maybe next online, check out her 10 yr old performance of Feelin' Good (LIVE on The Stream Gir Tilbake) - the video is on her official channel (here's the link: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-p8kAL-sGJx8.html ) It's not cute - it's astonishing, and I suspect will leave you speechless as much as BR did. Keep smiling, my friend. Loving your reactions! 😃❣

You should watch the rest of the Norway’s Got Talent. The transformation is amazing.

I dont know if you are aware Angelina Jordan has a last name in her home country. ANGELINA JORDAN ASTAR. Both sets of judges mentioned he being A STAR,,, and in real life she was from birth. Mom Sara and Uncle Mike/manager, last names are "Astar." YOU will want to see the other 3 songs at NGT2014 and the other 2 show stopper performances at AGT2020 before she left the show per pre arranged agreements between AJs Family and AGT

❤❤❤❤❤💥

Aha, you’ve discovered AJ, she’s just so good and was from a very young age; you could choose almost anything from her repertoire and not go wrong! A bit like the band that I mentioned to you a while ago, The Warning - they made it big with their cover of Enter Sandman in 2014 when they were 9, 12 and 14; that’s what launched them into what they are now, Rock stars ✨! 🌹

Same here. Going on five years at least 1 hour a day. When something new comes out.... 2-3 hours a day. She's all I want to listen to. I can't help it and I can't go without it. Is my life better for it ? Damn right it is. 🦶🦶😇❤️❤️
