Let's just hope she doesn't come down with a major case of the old-folks-can't-tell-me-what-to-do-blues. She is doing just classy fine as is. Call me old fashioned but skull tattoos, spike heels, stud pierced tongue and booty shorts would denote a wrong turn for me 😝
Angelina is the epitome of beauty, grace, class, elegance, sophistication and dignity. Her delicate breathiness is like a butterfly slowly settling onto a flower.
As you said, today Angelina can "reflect" Michael Jackson, tomorrow it's Etta James or Adele, the day after it could be Miley Cyrus, Elvis, Gloria Gaynor, Frank Sinatra or many others. She has no real limits (except possibly opera and I wouldn't bet my money against her even on that).
Opera singer here - oh how I would love to try that limit! She has absolute tonal beauty, wonderful musicality and crazy laryngeal stability... three things opera singers train forever to develop.
@@lr4635 - Oooh wow - "crazy laryngeal stability" sounds amazing. ( I am not being flippant btw) - Having AJ also hit some pretty high notes ( fairly easily to my untrained ear I add) and the amazing very low notes she can produce, i too would really like her to a little opera at some stage. (perhaps she already has and it wasn't for her but I think she would also do an excellent job. ) 👍
@@lr4635 As we know, Angelina is fearless and seems always willing to challenge herself. Maybe she'll take a shot one day! The last portion of "I Put A Spell on you" seems a little operatic (at least to me, a novice).
Angelina is the perfect soul to deliver this message to the world. It's literally WHO she is! It truly comes from her heart. This was a "live" performance during a virtual Norwegian royal visit to California by Norwegian Prince Haakon. Angelina was invited to participate. Made me cry as always :-) Thanks for the reaction.
I relate to your comments about her "channeling" or "emulating" the artists she covers. I have toyed with making that observation but I always hold off because I have not found a way to say it without implying the pejorative, "copy". I do think she is kind a musical polyglot, a person who speaks many languages with perfect native accents. Angelina speaks musical languages fluently. She seems to totally absorb the voice of the original artist and is able to reproduce it in extraordinary musical detail, while adding her own touches. No shame in that!
it's almost eerie how much she sounds like MJ in certain parts, it's really beautiful. Her cover of Whitney's "I have Nothing" is another one where she seems to embody the original artist and honor them.
Dechral - I was just thinking the same as I watch this reaction and turned away at times to just hear the music and there is (in parts) I think an uncanny resemblance. 😃👍
Angelina and piano i feel like in the middle of an orchestra,,,every time,,,,,her voice is so colorful you never miss any instruments,,,,,,one is plenty when she sings,,,,,,,,,,,,,,thanx
Oh my gawd!!! Just too much. Even hearing her speak got me hahaha 1st words out sent goosebumps all through my being!! And my eyes were stinging...I felt those tears coming...omg and when she said NO NEED TO CRY...well i lost it and the tears poured out .. as always...bless this angel!! She has the kindest heart and soul...luv this girl si very much!! Cant wait to see what else she has in store for this world!! 💗🎶🥰💗🎶
This should be realised as a single Now Angelina has so much love to give and this proves it she really cares about others she has a heart of gold 💛and she’s so humble with it I believe she will change the world 🌎 the best she can Love 💕 from Denise in Yorkshire England 🏴👼👼👸🏻👸🏻🦶🦶👏👏👏🥰💕👋
Angelina is an Angel. If you have heard her reality that she has foregone her footwear for another deserving soul & after that most of her performances are bare feet bearing testimony to more deserving & needful souls. How can such a young angelic soul like Angelina think of such Empathy & Sympathy. I am truly proud of her & pray to the almighty that there are more like minded humans like her who can emote & help needy people through their Art form. God Almighty Bless Her.
MrLboyd, I hope you get better soon. Angie chose this song very wisely for the ocasion. She may be young, but she's not naive. Obviously, she sings with a purpose in mind. Hope this stunning performance hit the hearts of those involved in the meeting she refers to in the beginning of the video.
The whispering mode is a tribute to the way MJ sang it. I have a feeling she added the many extra breaths for a reason: it will make you more aware of the lyrics, the emotion behind it. She easily could have chosen to make longer beautiful phrases, legato connected, combined with her unique melisma's, but apparently the message was more important. Little gift at the end with that masterful run! She is special! (Almost to many skills)
Angelina sung that song with such beautiful meaning and I think she has reached all of us. There truly is no end to this young lady’s capabilities and she put so much creativity into this song and there is no challenge for Angelena Who covers songs in her own beautiful style. Thank you for your reaction I enjoyed it
How wise, mature, and humble was Angelinas pick of this song. She could have picked any song, self promoted her own compositions, but no, she went with Michael Jackson’s , Heal The World, so appropriate for our time, especially with what’s happening in India and all the deaths. She truly is an Angel, promoting love, peace, and awareness.
The Crown Prince of Norway was doing a virtual visit to California. He met with authorities there and as closing of a part of the visit, they invited Angelina to sing (of course virtually too from her studio in Los Angeles). For this official occasion, instead of promoting one of her new songs, she chose to sing a song that has carried a deep message for more than 30 years. We need to care more for each other. Love conquers all! This is what Angelina wanted to do all her life, sing for the world to be a better place, and now she's using the platform she has been given to do exactly that 💖
Heal The World,,,, so ANGELINA. I LITERALLY LOOK FOR YOUR AJ REACTIONS S. Your descriptions on her vocals I do love. Be well soon. PEACE LOVE AND HAPPINESS
Beautiful! She amazes me in every performance since I first saw her on Norway's Got Talent so many years ago. They are very different but she reminds me a lot of Dimash, they are both dedicated, hard working, extremely talented, good values, admirable integrity, the love for music is more important than fitting in to a genre or others expectations, humble, respectful and they are both fans of MJ's music. I'm rooting for Angelina and I know the rest of the world will understand how amazing she is eventualy, today's music industry need more artists like this!
Angelina respect the tempo of the song so we still can recognize the song but will add vibratos or runs or whatever she has on the toolbox at the moment.
Here Angelina performed for this event: BUILDING PARTNERSHIPS FOR GREEN SOLUTIONS AND A SUSTAINABLE FUTURE Virtual visit by HRH Crown Prince Haakon of Norway to the State of California
Quincy Jones stated that he hadn't experienced an artist like her since MJ. Hence, he invited her to perform at his 85th birthday in the O2-Arena in London in 2018. And I'm sure he had something to do with AJ signing up with Republic Records in 2020.
You disappeared for a day, still sick (do not look like it), and I was already missing you! Before wanted to heal the world as we all do, heal yourself by the power of rest and sugar water lemon juice. You owe it to yourself and, by way of consequence, to us. Angelina Jordan's best quality as the inner manager of her own career is her wisdom and discernment in the choice of her appearances. She seems to always be at the right place at the right time: the artistic compass in her soul guides her any time in the exact direction of the mothership connection. Today, it is to heal the world in the midst of the pandemic. What will it be tomorrow? Anywhere she goes, I will trust in her and follow. Her main leadership principle, I wonder, must be: We rise by lifting others.
I don't know if I am right or not but IMHO, this beautiful girl -Angelina Jordan has a commitment with the world humanity ; like if someone from a higher step , above humans have compromise her to improve the human lifes behavior through her person. in order to help people to become better human been....just remember what she did at 6 year old ,supporting a poor child and making a commitment to her self to not wear shoes till children of the whole world have them. besides , her own compositions always speaks about love and hope, same as her covers. I am very sure that She is a gifted person , and that gift comes from the top.
This song is a heart wrencher, and Angelina Jordan and Michael Jackson just make it that much more. She has nicely gotten away from the gravelly voice and now she will just skyrocket in the music world!! I have a treat for you. At your leisure, please watch A Korean singer named (J. FLA) sing a cover of "BILLIE JEAN"!! It has over 42 million hits.
You mentioned Quincy Jones working with MJ... Coincidentally, Quincy Jones was VERY IMPRESSED when she sang a little bit for him. He stated that Angelina was the most talented singer he's heard since MJ; so impressed was Quincy with her that he booked her to OPEN his 85th Birthday Gala in London with his arrangement of "Fly Me to the Moon" (there's a video of the rehearsal with A FULL ORCHESTRA... Now there's a statement, he didn't say she sounded like MJ but as "talented singer" as he was... She MUST'VE been on cloud nine at "12 years old" to elicit that level of admiration from a legendary producer.... 12 YEARS OLD!!! 🎹🎤🎶🎵🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻. So proud of this, now, young woman. As she's grown, so has your ear for the prodigy/genius qualities that result in your trademark "half grin" you get . Love it, Bro... Peace!!
The various nuances that are different to their falcetes are really natural in her voice, when she used its various hues as resources within your singing to harmonize it in unique way, creating large natural effects his own voice, she performed adaptations in each word in a harmonious way and creates a song only one who finally puts a touch of magic from your soul this makes her to be able to enter into the hearts easily where he manages to move the simientos emosionales who will pay attention to hear his voice versatile.
You said you were still sick, but I’m glad to see you seem to be some better today. You said on one of your reactions that you would like to hear more of Angelina’s lower register, so I’ve been sending you links to those. Hope you have gotten them. Blessings!
@@takoja507 Tattoos may look great and pretty on your skin as a young age, but not as an old they look more like horrible. So let´s keep our skins clean and healthy ;-) The other thing: what about, if you get bored to your tattoos. Whan can you do? As far as I know, there is no good solution for that :-( Tattoos are overrated now...
@@mathias61 Well that's why you don't take tattoos on a whim...Usually tattoos mean something important to the person and only idiots take them on a whim. You can get rid of them but it's expensive and painful. I think it's done with laser burning the colour off.
Pretty nice. MrLboyd you know your program is going to help me create new neurones. I never ever heard music this way analising every instant of it. Youvare good in what you like to do. ♠️
Hello Dear, thank you for your reactions and support Angelina. I'm going to make a little gift in gratitude for your respect demonstrated to our little angel. I discovered a detail a detail that none has said so far (or reactors or fans). Angelina's great masterpiece at this song "Heal The World". There is a great detail almost impermeptible in the arrangement she made. Here the arrangement begins: 4:57 This part is as if I said without words a synthesis of the song without relating the song. Then she pauses and says this without words 5:03 that would mean "etc." Or "by The Way" continuing with the song. It would be like an irony, such as saying: no matter what else or the song itself, it matters to be for us "For You and for Mi". Very few people in this world can perceive the small details, the little gifts of the universe and this is a great gift that Angelina Jordan has left us
Great song, hreat reaction. Another type of music from her was "Above the water" with a norwegian duo TRXD. Tecnomusikk (is that the name?) She mastered that to.
This is my 3rd favorite MJ song after Billie Jean and Smooth Criminal. But that was only after I was well into my 30s when I really grasped music composition. I probably woulda had stuff like Thriller ahead of that before then. Angelina had that when she was like 5.
Hi. Really like your reactions and am glad you are feeling better. I think you would really like her rendition of Shirley Bassey's " Diamonds are Forever". It's one of my favorites although just about everything she does is a favorite.
It's a beautiful message and to listen to her helps healing and it ls also good for you to take Zinc it is good to build up your immune system. My prayers are still with you and God Bless, this is Popeye coming at you!
Refua shalayma (speedy, complete recovery in Hebrew). I enjoy your reactions & have commented before. So glad your an AJ fan. MJ would’ve loved her rendition 😊& AJ, 7/22/22
