Angelina Jordan - Summertime | Norway's Got Talent | Vocalist From The UK Reacts 

Great reaction! We all feel it, too. That old school vibrato, that upglide "daddy" with the head tilt, those final notes...wow! Most angels will say they have 100 (or so) in their top10, but I DO have a top 3, and this is number 2. Some angels prefer her version with a full orchestra, but this one hits me harder. Btw, my number 1 is AGT "Bohemian Rhapsody" and my number 3 is "I Put a Spell On You". Then there are 100 in my number 4 position, lol. The new EP has made a worthy struggle to move to the front of this line. She is so special!!

Great reaction. Thanks for sharing. May be you should react to her new stuff. Angelina is now 17 y.o and she released an EP with originals a few month ago. Greetings from France, Gilles 🎙️🎶😉

Yes she is 8 yo (did someone leave off a zero) it's unbelievable, thanks for the great reaction.

Yes, I know what you mean. It’s like Angelina is a vessel and the music somehow flows into and out of her from some higher source. Just keep watching and you’ll be amazed at what she can do at any age. She’s completely present in all her singing. She interprets the lyrics so beautifully in any genre at any age. And you’re right about her timing-it’s immaculate whether she’s singing blues, jazz, soul, ballads-whatever. Just pick any title you like. She will blow you away again and again.

Her progression over the 6 months of the competition is unbelievable & I think this performance is her 1st of many Masterpieces she has produced over the last 10 years. Her 2nd one was a couple of months later at an outdoor concert where she "killed" Dinah Washington's Grammy winning original, What a Difference a Day Makes. It's shockingly beautiful & one of my all-time favorites, regardless of her age (which was 8). ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ZSfgCIGd7k4.html

Clearly one of the best reactions to this amazing moment 🥲 in time, that I`ve ever seen, and I have seen quite a lot of them by now. No doubt Angelina and her music got to you. Then this is in my opinion a performance that should be abel to soften any heart, even those made of stone, if there are any of those around. Thank you Charlie. 👍🤗 👣So to me this is what Angelina is all about; - Breathing great music as; " - her heart flow into us, like waterfalls" as she sings in her song "It`s All My Fault". 👉 To be found on her new EP "OLD ENOUGH" 👣

That second, your daddy's rich, is from a 60+ year old diva. I've heard this song my whole life and who knew one of the best versions, ever, would come from a 8 year old from Norway 😮😮

Bravo! Your great reaction to & appreciation of Angelina's magical performance were spot on. In fact - after watching well over 100 different reactions to this performance by Angelina - yours is by far the best. Not only did you capture Angelina's amazing voice & delivery, but you were also able to tie in the insightful comments by the judges. Like you - I strongly believe that Angelina has been blessed with the innate GOD given gifts of not only a beautiful voice, but also the ability to emote the essence of each song she sings directly to our hearts & souls to also allow us to deeply FEEL her music as it flows through her. Looking forward to more of your Angelina reactions. I highly recommend: "What A Difference A Day Makes" performed at an outdoor venue in Norway at age 8, her incredible in studio performance of "I Put A Spell On You" (which she also arranged) at age 9, her amazing cover of the Amy Winehouse classic "Back To Black" at age 10 & Angelina's mind blowing AGT audition singing her reinterpretation of "Bohemian Rhapsody" at age 13. Thank you. And may GOD continue to watch over & bless Angelina Jordan.

Great reaction 😊 Angelina had been listening a lot to the version by Louis Armstrong, and you can clearly hear the inflections here, particularly the heavy vibrato Louis always had. And that vibrato was something she used for THAT exact performance, and never again. At least that I'm aware of. So during her final performance on the talent show she did something that she hadn't done a lot of before, but rather something she thought fitted the performance while at the same time showcasing her skillset. At 8. Who would have done the same, right? Particularly that age. Love from Norway 🇸🇯❤️❤❤

Very nice reaction! This is absolutely stunning. Usually when kids sing beautiful, it's because they can have those sweet high and clean voices. That can also be very moving, but mostly you get the feeling they sing so well in spite of the fact that they don't know what they are singing. It's only musical with a beautiful voice, singing the right notes at the right place. But with Angelina it's a different story. She adds a lot of very rich emotional expression to it, and the "extra" musical things in timing and dynamics, bluesy notebending, she learned from listening to jazz. And she does it sooo tasteful.

Love your AJ reactions. I would suggest before you do “I put a spell on you” listen to Screaming J Hawkins original version. Out of the million people who has covered “I put a spell on you” she is the only one who has understood how Screaming J wanted it to be performed.

This is her final performance, at 8, on Norway's Got Talent and catapulted her to victory in the contest which I believe had 10 acts. That being said, she still garnered 46% of the nationwide vote, over all other contestants. She is really 'spot on' with Ella Fitzgerald's version and Ella was voted The #1 Jazz Singer Of All Time'. Angelina's rendition of another Ella classic - 'Every Time We Say Goodbye', when she was 10, is another amazing performance. To be honest, I prefer it to Ella's rendition. It's quite similar but she slows it down and really draws you deep into the depths of your soul. The girl's magical !

Like many others I have lost count of the number of times I have witnessed this incredible performance, but it is always a surprise! Great Reaction!

Yes sir she's unbelievable.... ✌️

New subscriber. You get it! Four years ago this month I first discovered Angelina and after this song and watching her eyes roll at that moment my eyes went blurry. For months after I kept re-playing this in my head. AJ sang this again two years later at 10 years old with the KORK orchestra at a slowed down pace and I can't decide which version I prefer. Thank you

So great to see you back with Angelina Charlie....miss you and your wonderful reactions with our Angel. Hopefully you will do more with her.....she has been a very busy young lady. Cheers to you Charlie, don't be a stranger to Angelina. 🥰🥰🥰🥰 Had been a Sub to the channel until we did not see you anymore...would love to come back and join you for more Angelina.

Yeah, you're right Charlie she has been possessed by some greatness entity from the past.👏👏👏 Unreal!!!

After 100s of views your the first reactor to give well deserved kudos to the judges. Of 10 finalist she won with 46% of the votes. very well deserved. When all is said and done I believe she will be considered the G.O.A.T.

Loved your reaction to Angelina! She's a phenomenon! New Sub! 😊

Bro your comments are so on point. Sshes incredible. Shes sings so beautifully. Range reverb her control is not human. The judges were so on point so were you. And not gunna lie i welled up. That hit hard

For me the shocking thing is at 17 she's still getting better. She has not hit that ceiling so many child prodigies hit. Her new EP OLD ENOUGH is brilliant and so diverse. All but the first 2 tracks are different genre mixes.

Charlie, you're still in the 'shock stage'. We've all been down the same road. At the end of the video she hopped off the stage and went back to being 8 years old. (However, her mom was quoted as saying Angelina was an 'adult' 8 year older.) There are so many great singers in the world today, particularly a bunch of young singers. Angelina, of course, is one of them. But then you know her voice is so unique and there's no one like her. Then you know she is artistically brilliant at such an early age and there is no one like her. Then you find out she is a beautiful human being, so humble, kind, caring and loving and she has stated she is most comfortable in her life when she is on stage singing for people. Put that all together and let's say it's rare someone is like her. So, now what level is Angelina on? Let's put it this way, everyone got off the train along the way and when the last passengers got off they wondered, "Where in the world is Angelina going?"

The trumpet player was the only she knew in the band she met to do "I Put A Spell On You"

I am one of her voters for the win. So proud to see what she has become. Love from Norwegian subscriber.

The comparison between what Ms. Jordan can communicate emotively to her audience, is the same of what was said about Enrico Caruso. The similarity are uncanny, both are once in many generational gifts to music. Rb

Great reaction Charlie, Angelina truly is a phenomenal singer! You have a like comment and subscribe from me bro! 😇

What is the number one song of Angelina for me? ALL OF HER PERFORMANCES. Thanks for your great reaction to this unimaginable performance by the Barefoot Angel.

A young legend!

Great reaction! Please remember to honor the artist by including a link to the original video in your description.

When she rolls her eyes up she momentarily transports to her inner world. This is a wonderful performance. It’s unexplainable skill.

So nice to see someone who gets it from the first note. She channels the music, and then has the ability to project that emotion to the listener. Impossible not to feel what she is feeling/projecting.

Vibrato sustained through vocal fry at this age is insane.

YES, she is an old soul, and practices daily, or almost daily for hours. SINCE AGE 3,5. Yup, she wanted to participate NGT when she was 5!!! But they accept kids only when 7 or older. Be blessed.

I 👏 applaud and concur with your very well articulated comments. Blessings to you.

Charlie, thanks for returning to react again to Angelina Jordan. She is, IMO, the ultimate singer storyteller, conveying the emotions of the story. *Why Angelina always performs barefoot* At age 6, while traveling in the Middle East with her mother and grandmother, Angelina noticed a girl around her age standing on the side of the road, asking people to step on her bathroom scale to be weighed in hopes of getting some money. Angelina took off her shoes so as to not get the scale dirty and stepped on the scale many times to make the girl feel better. Angelina befriends the girl who was not wearing shoes and has scars on her feet, and learns she is an orphan. The orphan girl tells Angelina how beautiful she thinks her shoes are. Angelina says her shoes don’t fit her well and she wants to give her shoes to the orphan girl who thanks Angelina for giving her the shoes. Angelina asked the girl what she wanted to be when she grew up and the girl replied, “I want to become a doctor, but that will never happen since I have no parents and I have siblings so I have to do whatever is necessary for us to survive.” Angelina told the girl to never give up on her dreams. The poor girl asked Angelina what she wanted to be when she grew up and Angelina replied that she wanted to sing for the whole world. The poor girl said she would pray every day so Angelina’s dream would come true. Angelina still says she thinks of that homeless girl every day and has always performed barefoot to remind her of all the children who are less fortunate. At age 9, she became the youngest published author in Norway’s history by writing a book about this encounter in the Middle East. PLEASE PURCHASE Angelina’s book from her merchandise store on her official website, angelinajordanofficial

English is her third language of 4. She is 8 at this point in the competition after her birthday on January 10th. All her performances went viral on RU-vid. She was declared a National Treasure! She is the greatest female vocalist to ever live. There has never been another with the talents of this young lady, our barefoot Princess of a thousand voices, the Queen of Jazz. A gift to us all. Tears are allowed and expected when we listen to Angelina.

Bingo on her timing. Her timing accuracy is essentially flawless. How is that possible for a little kid? It's not. Something else is going on with Angelina Jordan.

The way she sung "Dad"... wow... so stunning ❤️ She is outstanding, that little girl ❤️ And if you know her barefoot story, then you know she has a heart to match it aswell ❤️

Angelina takes your heart, fills it with love, and gives it back to you with a smile.

Those judges knew they were watching Norwegian history unfold right in front of them. This is the dream of these shows and she has proven to be one of the biggest gems ever discovered on a show like this world wide. I hope in the near future when Republic starts the campaign, that they go and interview these judges, Ivan the guitarist, the I Put a Spell band, and all those folks that were a part of her journey so far. What a life and walking into people's lives and just flooring, shaking up, gobsmacking everyone you meet. What a responsibility to be this much, this intimate spiritually with millions. What a life

Beauty is understandable to all people!👍

Don't know if you have seen it yet, but at 10 she did Feeling Good and it blows me away every time. You are correct, she has been here before. That is the only explanation possible for her.

Great reaction. Couple of points: (1) did you notice, after the sublime second "You're Daddy's rich..." that she whispers "Don't you say no..." - that's Louis Armstrong's line from his duet of this song with Ella Fitzgerald (most reactors miss that); (2) her timing is incredible and seems to be innate... very recently her Grandma Mery released a longer version of Angelina at 18mths in her cot singing "I will always love you..." (longer than the snippet that is included in an early tv documentary about Angelina that is fairly well known ) and (seriously) you can see even at that age her timing was brilliant.. you can see it in her eyes and head movements... unbelievable but it is there captured on video...

17 years old, her new album Old Enough places Angelina Jordan's composition in the center of attention, showing her maturity as an artist and teenage woman, Angelina's voice has soul and hooks you when you listen to it, very few artists are at her level, Her new songs and musical arrangements co-written by Angelina are: Diamond, Fire and Rain, Now I'm The Fool, Love Don't Let My Go, All My Fault, Good and goodbay, they are all extraordinary , Acapulco, Mexico

Angelina is a musical medium. Before she sings, she closes her eyes or looks skyward and connects with the greats of the past, who speak through her. She may not fully understand this, and not at this age, but she is gifted with an uncanny ability to connect souls. I hope she doesn't lose this as she grows into adulthood.

I envy your journey with Angelina's music. There are so many treasures to discover, at any age you choose.

Thank you for your valuable reactions and comments. You will never figure out how she does it, it just seems to be built-in. But, she said, "I didn't find music, it found me." And, that is how she does it.

“I’m not crying . . . I just have a little Angelina in my eye.” 😇🌺

Immer wieder unfassbar wie fantastisch sie singt 💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞

Here is some rehearsal footage for this performance - and you can see that Angelina has no hesitation in communicating to the trumpet player how he should play his part: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-BSm-oMgVCo8.html

This performance is what put her in the winner's circle!! Your reaction is so spot on!!

I am surprised you haven’t reacted to Malachi Bayoh. He is from London. He auditioned for BGT. He sings in the Seraphim.

Nice reaction to The Barefoot Princess, check out her recent cover, "Unchained Melody"! An Epic, Grammy Worthy Performance at a Sold Out Concert, God Bless!

Summer in her voice !!!

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ un don precioso de Mauricio Antonio Ramírez para miss Angelina jordana fanverse Astar. XRHO.

Charlie you’re great. Subd. I wish you every success..looking forward to the next one. 🙏

Thanks for the reaction to our angel Angelina...She is simply the best...❤

Her daddy is rich and her mom is good looking. That's true. 😊

I cannot add another thing, you said it all. Thank you❤🎶❤🎶❤🎶❤🎶

Love your reactions to Angelina! We get to experience Your deep and sensitive appreciation of her many gifts, and you can articulate why we’re so amazed and love her and her music so much!! - I agree with “ What a difference a Day Makes” and “ I Put a Spell on You”- 2 completely different styles and showcases of jaw-dropping talent, that are favorites of many. (Ages 8 or 9) . But May I add 2 more breathtakingly good covers of songs of hers NOT TO BE MISSED: “Stay” ( Rihanna’s) and “A Million Years Ago” ( Adele’s) - around age 11. Mind blowing. From there, anything you choose is stellar! ( “ Suspicious Mind (Elvis)” ; “ Go Easy on Me”… ( Adele) …“ I am Nothing” (Whitney Houston) ; “ A Million Miles” (an original of hers) …

The younger male judge said in some interview that they saw Angelina giving orders to the orchestra in NGT rehersals. Angelina wanted the orchestra to play just the "right way". It was just jaw dropping for them to see that because she was just 7 years old. She has performed this song live several times when being a little bit older than here. There are two extremely good performances, one with the Norwegian public radio symphonic orchestra KORK (maybe at 11?) and one at some outdoor event in Norway with a regular band (maybe at 10?) Both of these performances are just excellent.

My first time listening to your reactions, thoroughly enjoyed your comments. I’m not sure how long you’ve been listening to Angelina. It appears you’re fairly new listening to her. You’re going to thoroughly enjoy jumping down this rabbit hole.

I was there and yes the recording are wonderful but experiencing Angelina live is like switching from you electric scooter to a Rolls-Royce Ghost.

You can see her at 6 yr old first time in the studio singing I who have nothing by Tom Jones or you can see her sitting on a couch at 1, 1/2 singing along with Whitney Houston on a laptop I will always love you I will bet you that when she was born in the arms of the Dr and he tapped her bum her cry was a perfect f5🎵

Charlie, reage ao Gabriel Henrique cantando Earth Song, cover do MJ e Emotions, cover do destiny's child!!

I am new to your channel and really like your approach to the artists. I am glad you discovered Angelina and I am glad I discovered you! Take care. Hey, the logical next video is "I Put a Spell on You" which she recorded shortly after winning NGT. You will probably find it far more amazing than anything you have heard thus far from her!

sometimes she totally sounded like billie holiday reincarnated l also think ya be a good lookin fella

Ģreat❤

Nice reaction

Love seeing your reactions Charlie. I too loved hearing the language and I am sure she has been here before , she has that innate knowledge of musical sense which is incredible in one so young. I also thought the judges comments were great and it was a very good point that she doesn’t have to perform, it’s a gift but not an obligation which may come in handy for her to remember in times to come. Thanks again Charlie .❤

Regarding her eyes that roll, Angelina said in one of her interviews that as soon as this happens, she is in another place, a place that is all good and peaceful, and she conveys this place to us in her singing, a definite out-of-body experience🦶🦶👑🗣🎙🎷

Please do a reaction to her recent sold out Portsmouth concert version of Unchained Melody by AngiFan 😊😊

I like your comments and observations cheers from Australia 🦘🇦🇺

👍👍🤩🤩👍👍

Thanks for the wonderful reaction 👍 Its nice to see you again.

Yes. Channeling; this is probably why she is barefoot

"Some of the best [ summertime ] memories are made [ barefoot ] in flip flops." - Kellie [ Miss. Angelina "Magical Vocalist" Jordan ] Elmore "WOW.!!!"

Great reaction as always thank you 😃 wild bill

It is said of some artists they are an open channel, Herr Mozart, Stevie Ray Vaughn, and Angelina Jordan. The music just flows perfectly and effortlessly out of them.

Greatest reaction ever......and it IS happening to her. I believe that Blues greats are channeling through Angelina. She is like a conduit....a way for those Blues greats to perform again. I know this sounds crazy. I understand that. But we're very lucky to be here and seeing this young girl deliver to us this talent. Who's been here before? Who?

😇😇😇🥰🥰🥰

Loved,"like the music,Is happening to her." Best description yet!

Well put, it’s done to her..

I find my own reactions reflected in yours. Thanks

All i can say there is lots of angels looking after her and still are wild bill

If you are born to singing,are you so good to sing, you now..😊👌💟

Great reaction 😊

🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

It’s been a while since you reacted to a South African artist… please react to Joyous Celebration - All powerful

❤❤❤🥰 🇩🇪

❤❤❤❤❤👍

🤩🤩🤩

💯

Piss and pick the 1937 Billie Holiday version. That’s what she picked Billie Holiday versus 1937.

😊 Young miss Angelina Jordan can be very special binding,😮 And to be sure you should react to "I put a spell on you"😮 The black & white version.😊 Totally wicked.❤

Yes, her timing is everything. It's magical, amazing, unnervingly stunning. This is one of the major lessons she learned from classical jazz. While everyone learned structured organized timing she learned free flowing timing of jazz. Some were learning checkers and she learned multidimensional chess. She moves in and out of traditional timing like a musical Jedi. And it's not thought out or intended but is naturally occurring as part of who she and just how her art sounds. The timing is just one aspect of her art but it's a major aspect.

Are you freezing? Must be really cold🤣🤣. Turn up the elements and you won't freeze.

It’s quite apparent that Angelina was endowed with already highly advanced instincts, intuition, musical intellect and an ear for perfect pitch.

This is a really late comment, but I have to leave it here because it's so relevant to what you were saying in this particular reaction. You mentioned some of the little idiosyncratic things she does as she sings. Would you believe, she was already doing some of those same things when she was recorded singing for the *very first time* when she was 18 months old? I know you've been told many times that she started singing at 1½, and you might have been pointed to some footage of her doing exactly that, contained in a few different videos out there. Whether you snuck a peek at any of those videos off-camera or not, we now (as of about a week before you posted this reaction) have a _much_ longer edit of that same footage that was posted to TikTok by Angelina's family, that you really should consider reacting to. Here it is on YT, reposted by a fan: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-pefir9zeOnw.html And here's some additional information I think is necessary to fully appreciate what you're witnessing in the video: 1. First of all, you have to understand that Angelina's mother, Sara, is specifically trying to get her to sing "for the camera". She had already heard Angelina singing the song "off-camera". 2. Sara can be heard singing parts of the song, trying to entice her daughter to sing along, and also trying to indicate to Angelina "where she is" in the song, so she can continue to sing it by herself. (Unfortunately, Angelina keeps jumping prematurely to what is clearly her favorite part of the song.) Notice how much of the lyrics Angelina is singing independently of her mother's prompting (especially one line that seems to be prompted only by chord changes she recognizes in the music). 3. Sara doesn't seem to have been involved in getting Angelina familiar with the song in the first place. Apparently we have a babysitter to thank for that. According to a rather in-depth magazine article from 2017, Sara came home one evening (in 2007) and was "shocked" to find Angelina singing the song with "the babysitter". 4. The microhone Angelina is holding is a real wireless karaoke mic (the odd protuberance at the top is an anti-roll ring, so it won't get damaged falling off of an elevated surface, like a table), and we are hearing her voice through that mic (piped through a speaker) in addition to hearing it coming directly from her mouth (through the air to the camera microphone). The music she is singing to is an instrumental-only "karaoke track". So this all suggests that she is actually using a karaoke machine, and that must be how she learned the song initially (i.e., she and the babysitter were "doing karaoke" to pass the time). 5. The footage starts to repeat (but not simply loop) at around 3m17s, but there is one small bit further on that is not seen in the first half of the video, so watch from 5m29s to 5m38s if you want to catch that bit without sitting through all the intervening repeated portions. I'll resist pointing out a bunch of other stuff about how she's singing and what she's doing as she sings. I think you've seen enough of her singing at this point that you will notice (and "understand the significance of") most of that on your own.
