Do not be bullied into changing your style. You bring great value to your subscribers.

Do not care about what people say. You have one of the best and most insightful reviews of Angelina. Keep going!

Fantastic. Never in my life have I seen a performer/singer elicit so much love and admiration, like one loves their own child.

JUST wait till you play summertime . Thank you for your awesome comments

I agree 100%. For me this is when she became a world class artist. This is best version of this song ever.

Saw you getting emotional there at the end. Know the feeling all too well! Sometimes it's thinking about her brilliance but seeing her humility and grace. Other times it's the sheer beauty of the music. Still other times it's her uncanny ability to convey the story and emotions of the song, often in a way that just didn't happen when others sang the exact same lyrics. But always - they're tears of joy for this gifted soul.

Thanks for the reaction to our angel Angelina..she’s simply the best..👍👏

We truly understand what you feel. She IS special and you get to experience more of that for the first time with each song that we have listened to hundreds of times. A lot of angels have this as their top NGT performance, but, for me, the next song, "Summertime" is extraordinary. You will see growth, development, and/or change in her sublimely beautiful presentation. We all have cried at a number of Angelina's songs Her ability to connect to each of us is other worldly. I await more.

When you get to “ What a difference a day makes” you will be blown away!

angelina, with no disrepect, different era, made it better than it was

Angelina said back then that she's just an ordinary girl.Ordinary means that she identifies with everyone worldwide,what a superpower!Wise already beyond her years,she leaves me in awe everytime that she steps up to a mic, still,and I've been listening to her since 2014.❤

Cry Aron cry. We all know. It’s a thing of beauty. Her face and humility just kills me. The judges stated exactly point on perfectly what needed to be said.

I'm no professional, but I've noticed Angelina has complete control of her vibrato. Depending on her needs, she can make it fast or slow, wide or narrow, breathy or clear, and even unique with a microsecond break between each modulation.

One commentor awhile ago said they wished they could sing like DIMASH. And I replied respectfully, "No you don't!" Because of the huge responsibility and commitment it takes to maintain and develop a public and private persona along with the amount of time and energy to work at the craft. Same for AJ. Especially as a child, young girl and now young lady. The American music industry is filled with voracious WOLVES. They gobble up artists and spit them out. But AJ's family appears to be supportive and protective while managing her exposure and career commitments. I still can't mentally absorb her ability to express such complex musical scores and interpret lyrics like a 40 year old, burnt out, lounge singer.

Been looking forward to this all day. I cant wait for you to do I'd rather go blind and still holding out for you 😊

In my opinion, as just a music fan, this song can't be sung any better than this version by 8 year old Angelina. Even Angelina in more recent versions, doesn't capture the sad emotion as well. A-Aron, I greatly enjoy your reactions and analysis. Please don't let any inappropriate comments change what you are doing. Everyone is welcome to their opinion, but they always need to be respectful.

This is like when a special entourage comes to tell you your child is the next Dali Lama and you realize this is your calling. Everything she’s done is so out of the ordinary, that we see, its hard to fathom what it must feel like learning to accept your own power in the world. And here we stand with baited breath for the next incarnation as she continues to mature, explore, and experiment with her instrument

Thank you for your reaction. Yes, it is sometimes difficult to accept criticism , even for me, against Angelina and some fans become unreasonable with their comments. However, it makes your analysis of Angelina songs much more credible. To day you become a real Angel like the rest of us. Welcome.

Indeed as Angelina herself acknowledged in her recent documentary that it is Vitaly important that she has the unwavering support and love of her family and her Angels. As long as she has that, Angelina will without a doubt be remembered as one of the greatest vocalist in musical history. ❤❤❤❤❤

She has always been able to do this as you said. she just keeps refining. them and she physically matures. It goes very fast after this. Thank you, good job. Also she averaged 46 percent all the way through.

I enjoy your breakdown of Angelina’s performances. At this very young age it’s her little imperfections that makes her so perfect.

Did you know her name, Angelina Jordan Astar literally means "Messenger from God come down to bring light! No joke. Angelina-"Messenger from God" Jordan-"Goes down." Astar-"as a light "

Thank you Aron for your beautiful reaction, You have been Angelinaed many think we exaggerate when we talk about her but we are being honest she is incomparable and a unique gift for the world, she finds her way into your heart. And she's the coolest one there. Happy tears.💜👣💎

Angelina has been destroying me emotionally since I first saw her on AGT Champions. It hurts so good.

In her sweet spot in front of a live audience and killing it. Just a 8 year old doing what she loves to do! “She is music” The elegance continues to shine through so mature beyond her age! What a young lady! From what I’ve heard the judges saw her talking with the guitarist and telling him exactly how she wanted it played-Angelina in Boss mode at 8-that is when they knew she was for real! Recommend What A Difference A Day Makes after NGT! This was just a month after winning NGT and performed at Sing Along At The Border, which Angelina has appeared numerous times! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-XHnkVextoQw.htmlsi=uizDc1jn7kAtCXPS

This has always been my favorite performance by Angelina on NGT. Absolutely captivating!

Thank you so much for your input. You add so much. Angelina completely floored me with this performance but she really shows off her skills and gifts in the next performance, it’s incredible

Don't know if I listened to anyone who knows music better than you. Thanks again

For us longer-time AJ angels, I think I remember the few times AJ has had to "instruct" accompanists during her actual performance.!!!

The other contestants knew it was over for them at this point ! The one thing they can all say is .....we lost to a superstar !

Love your reactions exactly the way they are if people are complaining

As an Angel myself (7+ yrs) I'm almost jealous of you for what you are going through now. Also, you have nothing to apologize for. You are making amazing contributions to our own experiences in reliving these performances from Angelina. BTW, did you notice during this performance, her connection to the guitar player? You will also see that in her next performance, with the accompanying trumpet player. There are also videos showing her in rehearsals for these performances where you can see that she is very clear about what she wants. In reference to her family, you will eventually react to one of her original songs, "Shield" (age 12) which shows she is fully aware of how protected she is and how blessed she is for having such a family.

Omer Bhatti the 1st judge who interviewed her saw her when he came early and AJ was over instructing the guitarist on how she wanted him to play this song.

Thanks for your heart-felt reaction. ❤

Do not apologize for a long video. Everything you say is worth sitting through. Just keep shooting straight. Excellent reaction. AGAIN.

Man, I wish I was there in attendance. A thing of beauty. That guitar was amazing also. All you need is AJ and guitar or piano. Step back and enjoy. ENJOY en…JOY

My fav is the 4th, final (SUMMERTIME), but you can't go wrong with any of them;) Really you can't go wrong for the next 10 years! I don't think many would complain if your Angelina reactions were 2 hours! lol

I love this performance great reaction thank you summertime is equally amazing wild bill

I'm enjoying your critique of AJ's ride. I'm here for your journey giving us a new view of this remarkable talent.

You see what we all see and love about this young lady, and you also get an inking into how equally amazing her family is. We are indeed in love with all of them and, at least for me, feel blessed with such a treasure. And speaking of treasures, you have a trove of wonderful covers to catch up to, not to mention her originals, and her recent foray into Las Vegas. This was a beautiful reaction. Thank you for the love.

MAGICAL Rendition!!!! MAGICAL VOICE!!!! INSANE!!!!!!

I truly enjoy your reactions because you allow your feelings to show, you allow us to experience the impact of her voice. I am sure you always hear this, that Angelina touches emotions in a way that the originals cannot evoke.

What a wonderful reaction. I was moved very much by your reaction. Tears welled up in my eyes. Keep doing what you are doing, A-Aron.

She has still a little difficulty with the language at this point so in the moment she might remember the word to be life instead. She is begining here to enjoy it more but treat it much more serious as there is only one more song after this I understand your finding the imperfections.Of course every singer that's not in the studio winds up with an imperfection that no one but professionals notice.Thank you for the breakdown Angelinas mama said she knew when she walked out on the stage she had lost her to the world ❤

This was the first performance I saw of Angelina and I was absolutely stunned by her understanding of the music. It's a very simple song, as you said, but the soul and simplicity she put into it simply blew me away. Like you, I found her subtle intensity absolutely unbelievable. Wait until you get to the next one. Angelina has held me spellbound for 7 years, now. Indeed, she changed the lyrics, but it doesn't matter at all. This is a spectacular performance. Good reaction, again.😎

What a toughtful reaction, Aron...I think Angelina deserves this kind of reaction for being so dedicated to her efforts to surpass herself with each performance, in terms of her vocal technique and her unique way of channeling the message of the lyrics in such an artistic and emotional way. We are almost unable to imagine how much she dedicates herself, at home, to singing in this way that impresses us so much in each song she performs.

Her next performance, Summertime is iconic. That is when she went from a talented singer to a performer. When I met her, she is so genuinely sweet. She is a spectacular human being.

Whelp, you went and did it! You let Angelina in, and now you are done for. The tears will never stop. Here are your wings: 🪽

When listening to Angelina, tissues are always needed. Her voice is so calming, it gets into you and wraps around your soul like a warm blanket in winter and it can get overwhelming. To go with your character of Angelina, on her dedication and commitment, she has done quite a few charity performances; she's always ended up having a cold or sore throat. Each time they tell her she can cancel, but she never does. She fights through it and you can hear it in her voice the way it cracks or strains.

Yes, Angelina very often gives you your favorite version of iconic songs. She has the ability, as you’ll see more and more, to express melancholy better than any singer I’ve ever heard. She also has the ability, even at this age, to capture your attention from the first note and just mesmerize you with her authenticity for so many genres. You’re now getting Angelina, not a channeling of Billie or anyone else. Her arrangement, her subtle riffs and slides, her incredible lower register, her immaculate timing, her ability to make you feel-not just hear- the lyrics. Hard to believe a child can be one of the best interpreters of lyrics you’ll ever hear, but you really haven’t seen nuthin yet.

Angelina put a spell on you (as she did on all of us)..., which is a good thing as you will keep reacting amazingly to her other renditions and originals. I'm looking forward already to your reacting to "Summertime" now. All the very best from Germany

Best version ...ever! her first perfect song...

You are a bright addition to our "Angelina Band." Welcome!!!

You give me a thrill just seeing how emotional you are as you react to and speak about her performances. I react the same way and have seen, have listened to and HAVE FELT the same emotions and continue to do so even after hearing the same songs over and over and over for several years.

Just wait it will make you believe “why do I feel like this” when watch this girl sing . It is remarkable

Thanks for another wonder reaction and commentary Aron....Yes, Angelina is adorable with an insurmountable talent, but she is very shy and get the feeling she would just rather sing for us rather than talk about herself, very humble and sweet. Characteristics that carried over through all the years, she remains the same person as this little girl. She is an amazing human being.

Great reaction, you know every body cries when they see Angela and her journey forward.

I think all reactions are subjective, that is an interaction between the reactor and the performer. As such they say as much about the reactor as the performer. Sometimes it is like watching someone play poker. Othertimes reactors share much and open our eyes to aspects of the performer that we may have missed in our own perception. I enjoy your reactions both because of the unique perspective you bring and because of the energy you put into your reactions. Please don't change what you are doing even if some folks challenge you. Your reactions are obviously genuine and informed and much better than most of reactions we see on youtube.Thank you.❤

I think that the judge, Omar Batti, said later: We didn't know if it was talent or a girl cleverly mimicing Billy Holliday until this song. It was when Angelina told the guitarist how she wanted him to play this song they really understood that there were something else about her. (Not exactly his words, but as I remember it).

Best reaction and analysis of this song I’ve ever seen. And I’ve seen a ton of them. Keep up the good work. Looking forward to each and every one of the even if you make me cry 🥲

I Love your reactions to Angelina. Coming from someone who really understands.

❤🧡💛💚💙💜🤎 i like youre reactions greetings from Belgium

I remember it perfectly, I was looking for this song versions, and RU-vid showed me Angelina's version. I already read references to it in comments section of other version (I don't remember which one). The next one was "I put a spell on you" and I turned in an angel forever.

All that is what makes Angelina so special.

Summertime in the final,is incredible

😮 yes young Miss Angelina Jordan begins her journey has her Talent filled tool belt begins to weigh in 😮 as she tested the colors of her voice😊

I'm enjoying your reactions because of your truthful artistical background that your spot-on trust yourself don't be worried about the useful idiots that don't know what they're talking about.

Beautiful reaction my friend, u feel what us Angel's feel every time when see and hear Angelina ❤sing, whatever age she's in 😉And for those that leave negative comment's , just don't understand the way u think , it's very refreshing i think, keep up the good work 👍👍 I voted for this one performance , but then life happened 😣 and i forgot all about here. Until 4 years ago when saw and heard her Bohemian Rhapsody performance at AGT, after that i was addicted and listen to her everyday now ❤ Like someone said below her next one is (no know how to explain it ) you just have to experience it my friend 😋 Have a good one take care an stay safe 😊

In this video she looks like one of those figures on top of a wedding cake. So adorable.

I absolutely love your reactions…

I love seeing others love Angerina as much as I do. I have come to believe that she is very special gift of love. If the World could have an Angelina day that it only her music is is heard, there would be peace.

Angelina is a Starseed, imho.

I SO LOVE YOUR REACTIONS TO AJ. SO HONEST AND ALSO HEART FELT. I KNOW YOU JUST BEGAN YOUR JOURNEY AND I AM SO HAPPY TO BE GOING ALONG WITH YOU. IT DOESN'T MATTER HOW MANY TIMES I SEE EACH PERFORMANCE I AM STILL AMAZED AND I HAVE WATCHED EACH ONE SO MANY TIMES I CAN'T EVEN COUNT. I BELIEVE YOU HAVE MORE INSIGHT INTO HER ABILITIES THEN MOST REACTORS. DON'T LET ANYONE TELL YOU HOW TO REACT AND DON'T LET THOSE WHO TRY TO "SHOOT YOU DOWN" BOTHER YOU. I LOOK FORWARD TO EACH AND EVERY REACTION YOU DO OF ANGELINA.

You will hear a new effect she creates with her voice (If you can catch it) not until 13, so listen for it! The real stuff is coming!

Love that you did this song! So beautiful from her, and under-noticed.

One of the judges was apparently a bit unsure about Angelina until he saw her rehearsing this and telling the guitarist how to play the song.

Aaron, her love is so genuine our heart has never experienced feeling anything like this before in our lives. Over exaggeration? No, not at all. She touches us deeply and her voice is her instrument to make it all come together. Goosebumps, tearing up with urge to cry and finding it difficult to speak normally during or right after she sings for us are the indications our heart is sending messages to the rest of our body about how special she is. People who enjoy listening to music have become mesmerized not only by her voice but by 'who she is' and have adopted her as part of their family. Sister, daughter, grand daughter, great grand daughter and, yes, great, great grand daughter, all of them are spread all over the world. Yes, Sara was overcome with emotion because she knew what was about to happen. Aaron, she is now 18 and closer to her mother than ever before and her unyielding love is shared with everyone in her life, particularly grandma Mery, sister Juliette and uncle Michael. Many of us who have been 'around the block a few times' have seen the world around us change and realize it is time for the new generation to start pushing all the buttons, passing the baton, if you will. But, since we have discovered Angelina and our love for her is so astounding she has given us purpose in our lives, to not only enjoy listening to her sing but to watch her influence people with her love and everyone of us do what we can to introduce her to those who have yet to come aboard. Aaron, she has touched millions of people and she has no boundaries: Gender, age, color, language, religion, occupation, wealth, musical preference have all joined the global family she is responsible for and is it a stretch to say there will be a time, sooner than later, when everyone in the world will know who Angelina Jordan is? We're talking about hundreds of million people and although we cherish listening to her sing classics from yesteryear, her music will take center stage and every song will have a message of love with the goal of bringing people together because she understands for us to make the world a better place to live for everyone we must begin to love one another.

What i love about this every times she sings the words bang bang there's a different intonation its very slight but its there she is 8 years old here regards the I shot you down change this might have something to do with her already thinking about women's power, as she include a word her-story instead of history in her song Good in Goodbye's

Welcome for the third time to the angels. All of us have shed tears at different times for Angelina and her performances, And not only her music, but for who she is as a person, so humble and compassionate. The judges comment about her family was more important than you know. Her family has protected her and has been her shield throughout her career. At age 12 she performed her original song Shield, which is about that very topic and her appreciation of her family protecting her. After her appearance on AGT when she was 13 and 14, she received multiple record deal offers, but her family had decided to protect her from the industry and let her be a normal child, at least until she graduated school. She is beginning to be promoted a bit but still is going it slowly which I believe has kept her stable and well-balanced. It's frustrating for the angels, but it's a beautiful thing for Angelina. Peace out

Angel.ina😇❤️🙏

Hi A-Aron 🖐 Thanks always for Your emotional and passionate ❤️‍🔥professional analytical comments👍👌👏! Just as Angelina sings uniquely 😲🎙, comment on Angelina's singing performance😲🎙 and her incredible presence at only 8 years old! In the next song, Angelina's winning song, of course she doesn't know it afterwards! by George Gerswin "Summertime" you will need tissues like me 🥲🥲🥲! I love 💖 music of various genres🎶 and as a singer 😯 for over 47 years, especially guitar 🎸 and piano 🎹 but also jazz trumpet🎺 and saxophone 🎷 and depending on the song also harp or cello 🎻 accompaniment!! I've been following Angelina 😇 musically 🎸 for almost 2 years now, since she won Norway's go talent show at the age of 8 with songs by Billy Holliday!

Angelina gives every song 🎶 with her old soul ✨️ voice 👸😲🎙 new colors! and freshness! and spice! and new life! Angelina's voice 😲 is so magical! and unique! and wonderful! Simply phenomenal, our Angel 😇! Nobody out there has this music 🎶 style! and this jazz,🎺 blues, colors, scoops, riffs, runs, and long melismas in her voice 😲!

Two true angels 😇😇on earth 🌍!😊 Thank you a thousand times for the support, my fellow angel 😇 from Angelina!! our jazz queen👸 and angel 😇!! on her two You Tube channels 🙏She deserves it a thousand times over😀!

she kills this song, also the guitarist is freaking awesome.

So adorable! I first watched her perform at AGT in front of Simon and was shocked! She was 6 years older than here! I started then(5 years ago) to listening to reactors because of her. This way I also discovered Dimash Morissette and Diana Ankudinova. Even though I am a Dear, I think Dimash didn’t sing so well at this short age! And singing jazz! Another old soul packed into a little girl! And she is also so humble. Her story of why she doesn’t wear shoes while performing, (I think she does now), the facts that she was the youngest girl in Norway to write a book … she is one of those persons that appears once in a life time! Wonderful Angolina. ❤ from Spain 🇪🇸

I really appreciate your analysis- and love how long it is! You have so much to say - so much more satisfying than just hearing someone say. “ Wow! I don’t have words!” And I appreciate your sharing both your comments on her technically, as well as your emotional response! Also love that you’re taking the time to go through so many of her young performances! Can’t wait to hear your reaction to her final performance in the competition!! - Request- “ Please also listen to her performance of “ What a Difference a Day Makes” - done right after ( or during?) this competition- to see her advancement of her performance and interpretation - it might be, as you said, further refinement!

Famous musicians who played a long time with Frank Sinatra and Etta James said she's a great storyteller with her music and you have to listen to her lyrics to understand the emotions she's delivering. You will soon see her second great skill of writing own music 🎶 Bang Bang was a recent part of her Las Vegas show Her own judgement for her early popularity..My music was bigger than me 😊.. from her recent own documentary..Ten Years in the Making 🎉

I'm highly enjoying your reviews of Angelina, A-Aron. Please continue as you have been.

Of course. that's the George Strange guitar arrangement that he accompanied Nancy Sinatra with. It "Killed Bill," and it kills me. Angelina adds her own twists and slides that Nancy didn't do.

Her growth will be made clear when you dive into her summer concerts in Norway ages 8-12 and her covid practice session at home. I think that is when she really develops her own style

the young legend!

Beautiful reaction, my friend. I really appreciate your reactions and break-downs of her performances. You have so many incredible experiences ahead of you with her it's not even funny 😂 And whenever you think that "Surely she can't get any better than this???", in walzes Angelina and proves you wrong. Again🤣 I'm ten years in with her by now, and she hasn't "failed" me yet in the meaning of constantly blowing my mind. I have long since come to accept it and fall at ease with it though. Her genius is at a level that is kinda hard to grasp. No wonder her fans are so loyal and in love with her. Have a great week! Love from Norway ♥♥♥♥♥

Yes she had just turned 8 on this one and the last on she sang in that companion was "SUMMER TIME"

Hi A Ron, The reason she didn't say he didn't take the time to lie is because She don't like negative words. She said he didn't take the time to try ? Genius. She's pure goodness and remove's non positive words . She did that in some Adele song's. in her AGT performance at 13 she removed the part of Freddie's song about the gun and pulling the trigger .

Here's the English subtitle video with Angelina reflecting on her jouney. After the performance, we get to hear the judges summative praises and advice. Each judge is worth listening to. They are almost prophetic in some of their observations. The clip contains her selection as the winner of NGT Season 14. NGT 4 - SUMMERTIME, Ella Fitzgerald/Louis Armstrong (spotlights Angelina, final performance, judges, announcing NGT winner, all with English CC) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-zN4kAof1is0.html

Aron you’re wonderful..thank you 🙏

Another thing about her singing covers is you also have to remember English is her 3rd language and you will hear some words that don't translate ,, and she is 8. She started singing in English at age 6 in the studio while still speaking in Norwegian

For some reason most versions of this have eliminated the 30 second intro package Channel 2 made for this performance. There is no translation but the few seconds she spends in the music store, to me, says SO, SO much about how Angelina "listens" to music. I think you will appreciate this. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-7LVHl_juO-Q.htmlsi=an4Aeb_paIXwDw1e

Your reviews are amazing! You're in my top 10 of reactors. You were so much more! 😇🌺

Amazing ❤❤

Great reaction. This is based on the Nancy Sinatra version but i actually like Angelina’s version better. Even though she’s only 8 I think she puts more emotion and feeling into her performance. And I love those slides.
