Best reaction to this performance since I started listening five years ago! This was just a stunning performance, and I have listened to this a couple of hundred times...! It WAS exciting!
GREAT reaction! You weren't the first person to nearly fall out of their chair as Angelina starts into this performance. It's mindblowing. The Godfather of Soul hands over his crown to the new Goddaughter of Soul in this one 🙂.
This is the Norwegian armed forces band. She recorded an album with this band at age 11 this is a concert to promote that album. " It's Magic" they are the ones that gave her that great. Neumann microphone that she used in so many videos...
What’s most impressive is Angelina’s complete physical relaxation, swaying with the music while belting out her own version of soul. And her version is completely legit. Her phrasing, her power, her pronunciation. When a young child from Norway tackles James Brown, you might think it’s a parody, but never with Angelina. It’s complete respect for James Brown, but 100% Angelina showing us her originality and authenticity in another genre.
Your enthusiasm brought a few tears to my eyes, Red ♥ AND, if you didn't know already, Angelina can sing anything she wants and totally slay it in the process. Even at age 12 😊 Love from Norway ♥♥♥♥♥
This is the Staff Band of the Norwegian Armed Forces. The occasion was their 200th aniversary and they invited Angelina to sing on a CD and this special concert. The CD titled "It's Magic" has been a best seller in the jazz category and includes two of Angelina's original compositions "What Is Life" and "Oslo".❤
I still think you missed the astonished reaction of the conductor when she did that spectacular belt toward the end. They had rehearsed this many times, then they recorded the full album, "It's Magic," so it wasn't his 1st rodeo with AJ. However, that was the 1st time the conductor heard Angelina live on stage in front of an audience, where she lights up her after-burners. Check it out, it's hilarious!
😅 This song turned you into a giggling schoolgirl ! I love it. Thanks for the reaction hot stuff. I'm 215 pounds and I can't yell as loud as a 12 year old girl. Angelina is from 🪐 👍♥️
First few times I listened to this one, I just burst out in incontrollable laughter. The soul, the voice, the power and the attitude! Its just unheard of from a 12y old girl 🥳 Loved your reaction, thank you so much for sharing 🌹

Angelina even at 12 years old was considered a national treasure of Norway. This was a full concert that featured Angelina performing with the Norwegian military band. There are many other songs done here at this event and an album called It's Magic. It has been on and off the iTunes top 100 jazz albums for years. Please check socials. Peace out.
@@redheadedneighbor This album is one of the first ways I was able to directly support Angelina. I purchased the album on iTunes and now I have on my phone everything that’s currently available from AJ. 💙
@@devon7008 Thanks for the tip - I will definitely do that. I was considering it a while back and at the time it wasn’t available. I was kicking myself for missing Angelina (in person) when I saw her in Portsmouth. I was hanging out at the theater after the show with a few Angels and I had a long day and had to bike back to the B&B I was staying at (I couldn’t hang out much longer -big mistake). According to Steve A. I left about 15 minutes too soon. 🙄😥 It occurred to me then that until I can get a copy of AJ’s book, I should probably get the CD…. So I have something for her to sign for the NEXT time I see her in concert! 🤞🙏 😬🥰
This band asked Angelina to do this full album with them call it's magic. This concert was put on for the Norwegian people to sellibate the release of the, It's magic Album. Which is under the orchestra's Name brand. This was also to celebrate the orchestra's 200th year. Angelina also wrote 2 songs, one being song Oslo about here home town, which is one of my faverates.
She's got a stunning voice, but it just freaks me out to hear a child do some of these mature songs so well. It's like there's a 40 year old soul singer stuck in a kid's body.
When Miss Angelina was 11 years old, this military band invited her, to produce an album (It´s Magic) with them. The next year the had the 200th anniversary of existing as a band and all the "important" people were invited. They asked their national treasure to sing and so promote her album. No professional recording equipment were allowed, so the had to improvise with filming. Red, be safe, Elmar from Germany
She takes this James Brown classic, effortlessly into the stratosphere, and then you litsen to her reverse course by 180 degrees and perform the famous Elvis gospel song 'How Great Thou Art' in the same key as him but actually sustains it for far longer within individual lyrical lines that he did. Just an amazing feat of extreme versatility that I've never heard another singer do.
Its wonderful to see how much you enjoyed Angelina If there is anyone who has never heard of Angelina or someone who claims Angelina cannot belt, this is the video you want to show. And did you see the face on the conductor towards the end?❤❤❤❤❤
Too funny! Her knocking you out of your chair! When I first saw that you'd be reacting to this, I was a bit surprised you hadn't done this one, yet. I was then really excited to see your review. I've been watching reactions to AJ daily for 4.5 years and since first hearing this one, her performance here has been in my top 5 favorites. Great review. Thanks!
'Bout time you got to this one! Great reaction! Complete disconnect from AJ's looks and what comes out of her body. Notice how AJ riffs with the lead clarinet -- and kicks his butt in the end.
When Angelina was 11, Norway's Military band was about to celebrate a significant anniversary. Having heard what Angelina could do, they invited her to collaborate with them to produce an album, which they did. The album is called, "It's Magic," with Angelina on the cover. It contains maybe 12-15 songs, with only 2 or 3 instrumental. The recordings were done in a studio, so are very high quality. I's a Man's World is one of the songs in the album. Here is a link to just one of the tracks, one of my favorite performances - recorded in the booth with Angelina's grandma filming on her cellphone. The audio from that was not great, so the final audio was inserted into this video instead: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-SGx0djXTXQk.html&ab_channel=RustyShackleford
Thanks for this wonderful reaction redheadedneighbor and Angelina is not the only one on fire here, your dressed up for the occasion and looking good. 😁
Wonderful reaction: where you say "flute" I think what you are hearing is a clarinet... (and just watch the clarinettist far left as she sings.. his reactions are striking !)
Always adore and enjoy ur reactions to AJ 😃 I scrolled down ur AJ play list and saw one gem is missing 😋😉 This a song she did at age 10 almost 11 , it's an demo for an other artist called BabyFuzz😉 This the song i really want AJ to do again with her amazing voice now😉😍.Many off us Angel's has this one as one off our favourit's , her vocals on this one is up there with * I put a spell on you * but totally different sound😉 The intro say leaked but all persons involved are oki that this one was released ( you only find it her on YT, the Angels will give u all the info about that song if u ask ) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Dv8mjCh5iiE.htmlsi=mnictc6CxQzFgqTB it's an very well fan made video with lyrics, u no see her sing but many pictures from different ages ❤ I hope u do this one soon, it's a special one belive u me 👍 Have a good one , take care an stay safe . Greetings from Norway 😊
The Staff Band of the Norwegian Armed Forces (Forsvarets stabsmusikkorps) recorded the album "It's Magic" with 16 tracks in 2017/18 to mark the 200th anniversary and released it under their record label Forsvarets Musikk. Because of the special anniversary, they asked Angelina (Angelina was 11y in 2017) to do the vocals on the album. As a special tribute to Angelina, two originals by Angelina were also released on the album. On June 16, 2018, for the official celebrations and tribute to the orchestra, there was this spectacular concert "It's Magic' with many prominent guests including the Prime Minister at the time, Erna Solberg, she has outed herself as a huge Angelina fan 👣💯 *AJ* 💯👣
The two Angelina originals on the album are Oslo and What Is Life. You have reacted to two versions of What Is Life, the home made acoustic version with piano and guitar and the lyric video which has the audio from the album. I believe the album is still available in CD form on Amazon.
Spot on comment Albert. 😊👍 👣I feel confident that getting Angelina in on their anniversary projeck, was an all win-win for everybody, and made this record the nice sucsess it became to be. I guess it must have been a great boost for Angelina, and a great "school" for her on how recording and making a full akbum. It is still my dearest album of all times, befor her EP. "It`s Magic" still hits me with joy and awe every time. Her is the link for the recorded version of "It`s a Man`s World" if. As I see it, done with perfection also in studio, even though she was even more raw and clean in her live versions, that she did a few months later 👣 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-7lb2u45W-yU.html 🤗
That may be one of if not the best reactions I have ever seen to this song by Angelina. You are just beyond adorable, and Angelina's fans, myself included, knew exactly how you felt as have all been there. Great job
Wonderful reaction Red, I knew this one would floor you! Seeing pure joy on the face of someone listening to Angelina sing is one of the best things ever! Lots more where this came from.
One of AJ''s most impactful performances, imho...and there are sooo many great ones to pick from. There is something special in her vocal quality when she is around 12, special later too, but in a slightly different way.
As a dedicated Angel I have watched this video probably dozens of times. Today I focused on the clarinet section when Angelina first started singing. Smiles and heads shaking. You know they rehearsed (there is video of that), but when Angelina steps on a stage and kicks off her shoes she brings a whole new level of energy and engagement. We can see this in videos of all her live shows, including the LV shows and the 2022 concerts in Norway. As she said, she if meant to be performing on stage. Thanks for another great reaction.
Watch it again with close up of the bands faces. She worked with this band on several occassions. This is the song where I was done for. A ride and die fan.
Red you are amazing this song is so good in tone and her powerful vocals WOW ❤❤❤❤❤#angelinajordan #angelinajordanreaction #angels #lasvegas #jamesthiel #whenwewereyoung #redheadedneighbor #bestreactor #redsarmy #beautifulcountrygirl
"Wear your true color's brightly.!!!" - Miss. Angelina Jordan Angel Fan's Family Worldwide... Super Fantastic, Ms. Red - So Great Here - All Direction's...
Thank you Red...besides being such a beautiful woman you are absolutely one of my favorite reactors, not just Angelina but all your reactions, I mean this in the kindest way. Your love of great music just oozes from you and your expressions are more than enough reaction. This 12 year old taking on this iconic James Brown song is just an early hint of her insurmountable talent, this was shot on a handheld or cell by Boris Palenovski who was there, even this less than quality audio does not stand in the way of her greatness....Even the conductor was shocked when she belted out those notes near the end....some of the other videos from this concert, the guy on clarinet over her right shoulder nearly comes out of his chair...this is real music at the highest of level..... this Album, "It's Magic" is freaking great (I have it). She recorded it at age 11, and there are videos of her recording this as well.....worth a look for sure. Cheers Red, keep them coming. 🥰🥰
Great reaction, dear. Angelina is pure joy when she sings, otherwise she's just beautiful, loving and amazing. Her performance here captured most of her amazing talent. But there is a beautiful soul in this little, rapidly growing, person, that will outshine all the wonders we think we have seen. Well, that will always be tomorrow. And with Angelina, it always comes true. I have no idea what I just said other than I like her a lot. Course, you're nothing short of gorgeous yourself, Red.
When the band wanted to celebrate their 200th anniversary, they asked Angelina to perform with them. Together they recorded an album of amazing music, called 'It's Magic'. This concert was to launch the final album. This is one of Angelina's masterclass performances. It was recorded on an iPhone, so the sound balance was not the best, but that fight between Angelina and the high clarinet is always fun to listen to. Great reaction!
You loved Angelina's craziness in this song at the age of 12, so you have to see her in another song by James Brown "I feel good" also in a live performance but let's go back a little to the age of 9 what you will see there you have never seen before !!! And maybe you'll never see either !!! 🦶🦶👑🗣🎙🎷
Absolutely phenomenal performance from 12 years old Angelina, visiting my brother who lives and works in Oslo, we managed to acquire tickets for this live concert, I was absolutely blown away by Angelina’s arrangement of ( It’s A Mans World), this performance you’re reacting to was filmed on a mobile device, so imagine how phenomenal this was live,Angelina is so outstanding and never disappoints, great reaction thanks 🙏
Crazy to think that this, arguably, isn't her best rendition of this song...she did it live with her jazz quartet at the Kongsberg Jazz Festival the same year...the vid is audio only but that just makes it better cos you can just close your eyes and be in another world with Angelina...Angelina's world ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-meUN_mTpl1I.html
This entire concert was outstanding and the songs are from her album It’s Magic! She knocked this out of the park, what a professional! No professional recording equipment was allowed and the audience was a fair distance away from the stage videoed using a cellphone. See what the orchestra did for her 12th birthday! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-GsRD10wDLss.html She also caught the director by surprise when she ad-libed the one note! You can see some of the rehearsals on Grandma Mery’s Channel! The Staff Band of the Norwegian Armed Forces (Forsvarets Stabmusuikkorps) 200th Anniversary concert! Angelina was codified a National Treasure of Norway by the King and Prime Minister when she was eight years old! 🇳🇴🇺🇸
I loved your response. This is one of my favorites, and this and her Kongsberg version at 12yo with a 4pc band are the 2 best versions of this song---period. If you do not do it on line you owe it to yourself to check it out (dope guitar solo at the end) along with the other songs. "Rehab" from that you should do as I rarely see anyone do that song and it is stellar. The vocal sound quality is so good it almost sounds like a direct feed off the mic. I will leave a link to someone who has partitioned the concert, (some songs are only available on Angelinas Patreon) so you can go directly to each song. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-jry15BprOPQ.html Cheers
Red, and in my opinion this version by AJ is her second best rendition of this iconic song. I know that is probably hard to believe but there is another version audio only from Kongsberg with her band not the military band the same year as this one that is really mind blowing. It is definitely worth listening to even if you dont react to it. Thx for another great reaction video to Angelina.
Qui Angelina ha raggiunto il massimo per una cantante appena dodicenne.Fra 30anni si farà vedere questo filmato come esempio di genialità che solo alcuni fortunati hanno avuto da Dio.
yeah i agree Victor loved it 🥰 her voice on this one also blew my mind, and to think it was recorded from a phone, from a distance . At age 12 she did that ...pardon my language it's freaking insane 😱😱 Yeah like us said redhead .. always expect the unexpected when it comes to AJ ❤ have a good one take care an stay safe 😘
Great reaction as always!! Love you and your site. Thank you. If Angelina has a thousand number one hits in her lifetime, this will always be in my top five performances! Come on, she pays homage to the great James Brown and her version could be the best and only ever be considered second to the original itself!
Here is the actual rehearsal footage for this performance - notice some subtle differences: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-HXSsR9SqOno.html
Comment 2. Within a few weeks that summer she opened for Quincy Jones at the O2 Arena in London, performed a set at the Kongsberg Jazz Festival, and this concert in Oslo. Yeah, she was getting ready for headlining in Vegas.
If you loved this performance check out Angelina’s rendition of ( It’s A Man’s World ) at the Kongsberg Jazz Festival 2018 when Angelina was again 12 years old, the version is audio only but is just as good and more clear to listen to!
Red, you are always forthcoming with your astute observations and point on commentary. To see you dumbfounded and at a loss for words was truly mind blowing… and so much fun. I think we all reacted the same way when we first saw this masterpiece of profound emotions and *SOUL!* Great reaction. It’s exciting to contemplate what’s in store for us next! 🎶🖤👣
