She did the same thing sitting cross-legged on stage, where she sang “I Have Nothing” (if you know what I mean) in front of Jonathan Moffett, Michael Jackson's drummer.
I would think that Adele, and all the others who contributed to this song would be gratified that the greatest storytelling signature vocalist that has ever lived did them the honor of performing their work. The word is out that Jenifer Warren, one of the most famous songwriters, has written a song just for AJ, and her new album. Republic Records knows the potential of our genus, Angelina Jordan, and they have put together some of the biggest names in the industry to support her. Soon she will belong to the universe, and us angles will be able to say we knew her when
Angelina Jordan, who had just turned 15, performed this with Rob Christie playing the piano at Republic Records, Universal Music Group Manhattan Beach, California on Mar 31, 2021, and it has now been viewed 1,212,196, on AJ's Channel, since it 'premiered. (As usual, it is ethereal, no one could have done it better.) “All I Ask” is a song by British singer-songwriter Adele, written about a potentially final escapade in a failing relationship. It was written in collaboration with Bruno Mars, Brody Brown and Philip Lawrence for her third album, 25. The song received a relatively large amount of promo for a non-single: it was first performed live as a part of Adele: Live in New York City.
This remains in my Top 5 of Angelina's performances. No matter how many times I watch it, I tear up. 1.2M views, but it deserves 10M. For me, the song is one of Adele's best, and Angie's version is on top of all others. I also feel that Angelina is the best in the world at covering Adele's songs.
There's a video I've seen of Adele doing this song live...before she does it, she explains what the song is about...what she says differs to what you say it is about...
. Adele described them to Zane Lowe as focusing on "overcoming obstacles in relationships." She added, "And that's actually the best feeling in the world. I've never really had that. I'm also super fascinated by going from loving someone so much to hating them. That's what 'All I Ask' is."
@@EarnestMasumoto WOW! The lyrics don't say that to me at all. I don't feel Any hate in this song; too many lines that indicate I still love you. "you're the only one that matters", "hold me like you're more than just a friend", "while we do what lovers do", "it matters how this ends", "what if I never love again". Sure sounds like I still love you to me.
You need to go listen to Adele's original version to the song Angelina definitely made this her own a lot of reactors have said that it's better than Adele's originalaversion and I totally agree💖💖💖
When Angelina sings, with so much feeling and emotion, she manages to fill all the empty spaces in our soul and heart. She is really unique! Thanks for the video!
Great reaction to the Norwegian Soulwhisperess. The future G.O.A.T. And I'm inclined to believe that you agree that she will be🙂 Much love from Norway 🇸🇯🇺🇸🔥
Thank you Britt for that great reaction to 15 Angie. The piano player is Grammy award winner Rob Christie. Done most of the piano work sine then. Wait until you hear her cover Adele's song "Easy on me". Plus you need to hear her version of "How great thou art" when she was 12. 🤯👍❤
Angelina is so special one of my favourites from our barefoot Viking, Angelina is absolutely talented and humble, it’s in her surname Angelina Jordan Astar she is a star, love the production, and Angelina’s pianist is Rob Christie the musical director of Republic Records, great reaction thanks 🙏
Angelina the greatest diva ever make also this anyway good song from adele finely to a masterpiece for ever, how she sing this is masterclass 1000% not from this planet, its from the heart of love and soul, outstanding 👑♥️🌹💫 and such a wonderful reaction from you 😊
All of Angelina's covers of Adele are beautiful, but to me this is by far the best. By the way, I believe Bruno Mars was co-writer with Adele on this song.
I'm pretty sure that the studio is owned by Republic Records, which Angelina is allowed to use exclusively for her own projects. See also the two covers: Easy on Me and Heal the World. Angelina has some videos about this studio on IG and Tiktok that she proudly presents. 🤗
Great reaction, Britt. Just a 15 year old girl sitting on the edge of a stage with a microphone and a piano, and she killed it! Love, love this song by Angelina.
This is when Angelina broke out from adolescent singer to young woman in my opinion. It was her first full production with Republic Records when she was 14. It floored me. If you hear Adele's version you will understand. I never compare directly because each artist brings their strengths. But honestly, my preference is Angelina's version because of the emotion she brings to the song. Adele is a phenomenal songwriter and of course she sings it masterfully. But for me, Adele sometimes sings sharp while Angelina has that soft jazzy tone that I prefer. There is a mashup of Adele and Angelina singing this song together which would make for a great reaction. Keep in mind that Adele was almost 30 years old singing this while Angelina was 14. That tells you something! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-d5a828rENqw.html
Very well said Ron. Those moments when Adele's voice gets sharp, just ruins the song for me. Angelina is a top class singer story teller. I keep watching most of Britt's reactions because she is so likeable, but don't give her a like since she doesn't take 5 seconds to suggest viewers subscribe to the artists channel and to watch, like, share and comment on the original video. I now watch 2 videos per day from either Angelina's Official or Cover channel. I ensure that I like, post a new comment, and read, like, and reply when possible. More angels participating is the most direct way we can support Angelina on RU-vid, which will then recommend her videos to millions more people. This still allows you ample time to watch your reactors, hopefully those who make the commit to spread Angelina's message of love and empathy to the world.
@@albertstern1945 Thanks for your comment. In my humble opinion, I believe Angelina was 13 when she did someone like you. That was one of those home recordings and not in the studio. From my recollection, all I ask was the first time and you can see it was in the studio.
@@andyschnell58 Good points Andy and I agree with you 100%. Some reactors don't understand that by providing support they help their channel rather than compete with it. Artists are not competitors for statistics. They are partners.
I had my heart broken when I was 12, so there's a good chance for her at 17, she experienced this. And I'm now 48 and still once in a while think about it.
I know the feeling. Those feelings of love and loss were very strong already at a young age. (Still feel them too sometimes). I think experiences in life connect to some sort of source of emotions that is available at any age. One of the beauties of Angelina is that she has access to them in a very special way and is able to connect to them, translate lyrics into her world and can artistically share them with us listeners. It's both in her diction (like an actress; you don't have to be a powerful queen to play a role of one f.i.) and in her musicality. She is extremely talented. Almost unfair, also having such a beautiful voice ;-) By the way: she was only 14 (almost 15) when she recorded this, not even 17
Great explanation of our sweet Angel. She has abilities that can not be truly explained with words or in this world. The world she travels to and takes us to, when she sings, must infuse her with super powers. While we are there with her our hearts are filled with love and our souls are nourished. ❤️❤️❤️
Another masterpiece by Angelina so much feeling ❤and emotion in this song .She give Adele‘s version a lot more LIVE .She tells the story in this song as if she had experienced it herself.I am speechless 😮I am amazed by so much talent.In a few years she will become the best and most talent singer of all time.I am 1000% sure. I Lover so much ❤❤❤Great reaction Britt Love and Peace from Switzerland 🇨🇭 😊
Her grand mother are a prodigy too ( art painting) she got the model in her familly an go together at record store to her friend to know the best signer in the past Angelina listen a tone of record at this place to sound like today
Britt, she always finds the love in the song and she relates to it and sings the message of the song for us surrounded by the particular story of where the love comes from. She is very genuine and we feel that love when she sings.
We are state of the art! Great and right, in your review Britt, here is a song by Adele, a formidable singer of our days, with an important text about feelings and Angelina, in full respect of the author, makes it completely hers by bringing and adding the little ones variations that only your immense talent is able to do. Just out of curiosity, there is a review on the web by a very good vocal coach, Andres Grussl who, through a meshup of Angelina with Adele in Easy on Me, makes it perfectly clear what differences the 2 singers have and Angelina has a better musical background. thanks again..good life...Massimo🥰
Thank you for all of your great Angelina reactions. Adele`s music is for sure somthing Angelina brought into my life. I am all into the jazzy/bluesy Angelina, and even most of all those great covers from my early days and beyond. She manage to sing quite a few of the songs I grew up with, and even from my youth. I am so impressed by her even by that 😮🤩 As she on top of that is abel to bring me into new music as well, and popular music of today; - I truly could never expect even that from a young girl, or a child even. Angelina does so, and she also makes my love for music (first and foremost HER music) much greater than it has ever been. I don`t think she has many, if any, boundaries when it comes to music. She has since very young been an Adele "ambasador". I think you deserve these two wonder-treats by 6 yo (probably) Angelina, as they are a MUST to enjoy for any Angelina fan. I know you reacted to her cover of "Someone Like You", but NOT this one. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ECeqACRgMS8.html She even goes into re-listening to her job. Apparently not totaly happy whit what she did?! And this one; "Rolling in the Deep". She sure is happy as she does this one 😁 No doubt in the world, not even for a second. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-M-QspUVhrUM.html Angelina was 5 when this Adele album (21) was released.
So true Britt & great reaction as always. It's way beyond her singing voice and how she can change it. She sings with raw emotions that only can come from personal experience, but we know she's too young to have experienced these kinds of emotions. I guess we can say at such a young age, she's also a great actress.
Yes .. she's had a broken heart ... or twenty .. or a hundred! It's funny how everyone seems to agree that she's an old soul but then we're surprised that she knows about pain and heartache. If indeed she's an old soul, she has lived every kind of life . and we all know that pain and heart-ache are pretty normal in many different types of lives. She reminds us when we get the goosebumps from her way of sharing that particular story and particular pain. She's fabulous .. and a gift .. and most definitely our teacher in many ways.
More close and personal? Looking good, and love your reaction. Thank you. FYI I was in the Chill zone with you. :D This is definitely fits her like a glove, right up there with "You Say"... :)
she's just turn 13 years when she make this cover, she's addapt her voice for inch cover, need sound like Adele she can, like John Legend no problem that's the reason we call her the thousand voice
from an old 82 year old fart.....you are doing an amazing one after another Angelina videos. thanks for being there.....your awesome.....big Angie fan.
My reaction just as your's was to this song. It is certainly one of my top favorites of her covers. This was probably my 30th time of listening to this one and it still gives me shivers every time.
No other artist I’ve heard can cover Adele’s songs like Angelina does. When Angelina sprinkles her angel dust on a cover she takes ownership of that song.
Listen! I have to say it..... adele who? Right! I mean adele is a great singer/songwriter, but for me her voice is harsh and cold. Angelina's voice is warm and full of emotional content. I mean how many times is a cover better that the original? Not that often right! Most of Angelina's covers are on a par or better than the originals. No cap!!! Great reaction again well done x
I've always loved any song this young lady sang, but when I heard this one, it touched something deep down inside me. I'd never heard Adele sing this either, so I went to check it out. Adele has a great voice, but I didn't get half way through her song. It just seemed bland. The emotion that Angelina puts in it, is amazing. I must have listened to Angelina sing this 500 times, and each time it brings tears to my eyes. Great reaction, and if it is still OK to compliment young ladies, you look exceptionally nice today.
My favourite Angelina performance is normally the one I am listening to at any given time. But I think there is something so exceptional about this one that it is my favourite. Loved your reaction.
I think this song was a joint effort from Bruno Mars and Adele. I think it was co-written but both did their own videos of it. I’ve watched both and Angelina performs this closer to the Adele version. Angelina is more soulfull and has the jazz slurring and slides that only she has mastered.
I just love the original by Adele, but when I hear Angelina she brings a new dimension to the song, hard to put into word, almost like an out of body experience, she truly is such an amazing human being. Your views are so well explained, look forward to the next 150 AJ reactions by you.
I thoroughly enjoyed the fact that you didn’t know the song and hadn’t heard it before reacting to it. That was very cool. Most reactions are comparisons of some form or other, so this was refreshing. I think Angelina did a superb performance with this one. I’m always amazed that she can sit down and perform these amazing vocals with all this special breath control. Wow! Thanks, Britt!
So if you were ever wondering,.. can she do heartfelt, heartbreaking emotional tunes?? I think this is it. This is an adult song about hearbreak. I don't think she changed any of the words. This is an Adele song thru and thru. And she's been covering Adele. These are not old songs. How amazing she sounds here. And how perfectly pitched every note is. THIS IS AN ABSOLUTE PRO. Adele and her people obviously LOVE this girl. When are we going to get to the point where Adele just writes songs for AJ?? She's hitting notes that shake the heavens in these songs.
Great reaction again Britt!. I think your a full on Angel now if I may say? Also can I just take a second to back up what Andy Schnell said and please ask that you take a small minute to ask people to go to Angelina's Channels and Like And Subscribe! That would be wonderful if you could that Britt.
Great reaction. I wonder when Adele is going to try to stop our Barefoot Princess from covering her songs, Vitas did to Dimash. Angelina always enhances Adeles' songs to the point where you th8nk Adele is singing a cover of AJ
Britt you messed up like I did.! I listened to Angelina first and then listened to Adele and was a bit disappointed ? Not really disappointed Adele is good but... underwhelmed I guess is what I'm saying.! Edit: I missed you saying this before. This time I heard you loud n' clear.! Delicious.! Yes , she's delicious 😂
👍👍 Out of all the Adele's songs that Angelina has done I think that Adele should just give the rights to this song to Angelina and say thank you,,, (my opinion) 👣🌬🌎
