Like everyone else, I love how Angelina Jordan grasps the essence of each song while still making it her own. The way she interprets the meaning of the songs is nothing less than genius given one so young. Also, when she 'channels' her 'old soul' into the standards from long ago, she breathes new life into them and makes them fresh and meaningful to a new generation while awakening memories of younger days for an older generation. God gave Angelina an incredible gift and I believe He smiles on her each time she warms a heart and brings a smile to the rest of us.
I listened to this when I was a teenager. Bobby Vinton sang it then. As usual, AJ's cover is, to me, better than the original. I'll bet there are so many really old songs she can revive and make popular again. She brings the past to life even better than the past actually was. What a treasure!
Thanks for your reaction. Her voice is my therapy. I'm a crazy fan of Angelina Jordan. I didnt appreciate old souls before but Angelina made me love old songs. And now no days passes that I listen to her voice. I'm hooked.
@@josecamacho3393 HI Joe, I do buy her stuff but also donate to her site on the patroon Web site as an ongoing form of support. It's only $5.00 U.S.per month but it all helps. Have a great day mate.
Message for petespinkypigs. I've just listened too the brilliant Angelina singing this song she makes it her own song. A pure voice and she is still only a child.Think what her voice will be in another few yrs. it's hard too believe she just 13 years old. Thankyou for your message . I think everyone loves her music. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ YES THE LORD HAS BLESSED HER WITH THIS AMAZING VOICE.
WOW, WOW,WOW! ALWAYS LIKED THIS SONG. BUT, AFTER LISTENING TO HER VERSION , I NOW LOVE IT!! SHE IS ABSOLUTELY UNDESCRIBABLE . AS FAR AS I'm concerned, she already is a legend . Amazing what she can do with these old songs. Just simply Love her voice.
At The beginning of february Angelina had this Lovely song and 9 other songs In The top 100 iTunes jazz songs. At The same time her album It’s magic peaked at number 3 In The jazz album charts. The recordings were made between 9 and 12 years old. IT must have been The first time In history anyone that Young have achieved something like that!
When Angelina sings, I can’t help but feel love oozing out of me - it does not matter what she sings. I wish I had a boyfriend to dance with to her songs!!!
Before Listening: "I think this song has nothing to do with Angelina's voice" After Listening: "WOW, Now I love Angelina's version!!!!" I wonder how many time this has happened to people over the last few years... has to be in the thousands ;) I have finally learned that it doesn't matter what the song is, I just know going into it that Angelina is going to absolutely crush it. Thank you for listening to this one, Emerson! The entire album lives up to the name... "It's Magic"
Hi Brenda thanks.Listened to the only 2 performances of Angelina that i had somehow missed.I think she could make a rugby drinking song sound like passionate prayer!
She has always picked her own songs to cover. She has covered Frank Sinatra, Elvis, Dean Martin, Billy Holiday, Pasty Cline....to. .Adele, Whitney, John Legend, Queen, and yes even Miley Cyrus. This kid can do it all, and mostly, better than the originals. Her Ms .Lonely though, wow, can't get much better than this, and yet we know she will.
Well Emerson ,once again "You are speechless", lol you are never speechless and that is one of the things that we all love about you! Am I the first to realize that we are watching the birth of a superstar who will one day be known worldwide as ANGELINA, no last name required!
I love this song . What i love most is how the way she sang it. She has her unique interpretation of the song. Lovely Angelina. I love Jazz music and im one fan of yours.
HOLY SH*t...I didn't even know Angelina did a cover of this song which I have always loved by Bobby Vinton. But MAN, and rarely does a song give me a teary eyed..but this one by Angelina did..I was getting goosebumps thru the entire song...Her voice sends me back to my years of innocence. It truly touches my soul. Thank you Emerson for another wonderful, awesome, straight from the heart reaction...Cheers my friend.
I had not heard Angelina's version of this song before. I thank you so much for sharing this first listen with all of us who watch your program. I never understood the depth of this song from the original. Never caught all the words and truly understood the meaning and the depth of emotion. Angelina's gift is not just her voice and how it makes one feel, but also her interpretation and expression of the meaning of the (any) song. Thank you for your prayer of thanks. I feel the same way. She is truly a gift from the creator.
Love this child she can sing anything and make it so special . We are witnessing a musical genius as her talent is up with all the greatest singers. Not many as young as this little lady though. As I've said in previous posts please keep her safe. May God continue too bless her. As she has been given a gift not only her voice but her beauty, Grace and her beautiful personality xxxxxx❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ UK fan xx
I remember when this song was released, I was just a kid and I HATED it. They played it to death on the radio. But ... my tastes have changed. Haven't even thought about this song in decades, but Angelina makes it new because of the way she does it. It's just inspired ... brilliant.
Terrific reaction Emerson, as always. I remember when this song came out (I was in college in Oklahoma) in the early 60's. It was pre- Vietnam and Beatle-mania. I loved Bobby Vinton's version then. And I still think his version is very, very good. But Angelina's spin on this song is MAGNIFICENT!! If I could choose only 10 of her covers for a playlist, this would be on it. Simply Fantastic!! Billy J
As I have said before, she is the greatest singer of other peoples songs that has ever lived. And the added bonus is that her version is almost always equal to or better than the original. Billy J
I don't want to post links that go outside of youtube here (it affects the ratings for the contributor), but if you go to this video on Boris Palenovski's channel, the links to all the ways to get the album are in the comment pinned at the top.... ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-LDHfbnysMrM.html
@Karolyn Hoover, I just went to the link that Rusty posted and ordered the CD hopefully it will come because Amazon lists it as out of stock but this is a record store in Oslo.
Powerful and so emotionally touching ❤❤❤ had to come back n visit I really live seeing your honest reactions Zues. Hope you are recovering. Stay safe mate!
Zeus I believe you my friend are officially addicted and there is no cure. You will go the rest of your life feeding this addiction just like so many of us. I discovered her 8 months ago and other than karolina pertsenko this is all I listen to
Yes, Karolina Protsenko is the Angel of the violin! She stole my heart last December 3rd on my birthday when she sent me a video of her playing Happy birthday on her violin and personally wishing a happy birthday. Best birthday present that I have ever received in my 65 years!
And this is an example of how I got addicted to Angelina's voice so that I tried to track down each song (cover or original) I don't think this song has been recc'd a lot but she does a Christmas song "Mary's Boy Child" that is absolutely wonderful (plus they have a lovely collage of pictures of Angelina as she grows up). Well worth checking out.
Well Emerson, your reactions to AJ are priceless. And as of me writing this (Dec 06, 2019), I don't believe anyone has reacted to more of her performances than you. She has other reactors that are big fans, but no one reaches your level. I think you have done much to advance her career, and I and her fans thank you for that. I remember when this song was released on Bobby Vinton's album in 1962. It was just before the U.S. involvement in Vietnam and just before Beatle-mania hit the U.S. I loved the song then, and I love AJ's version even more. I do believe she is responsible for choosing the songs she covers. But surely she has some help finding songs like this from almost 60 years ago. Anyway, I love all the songs she covers, but some much more than others. And this is one of my favorites. Wishing you a happy and safe Holiday Season, Emerson. Billy J
You are absolutely correct! Angelina is a rare gift indeed! There's truly no genre of song that she can't make her own! Angelina is truly Blessed! Thanks be to God for Blessing mankind with her voice. Angelina is a rare talent that can bring peace and love to anyone's heart. Another young artist who can also do that is Karolina Protsenko with her violin. I know that you love Elvis Presley so you MUST see Sweet Karolina's violin cover of I Can't Help Falling In Love With You! Over 12 million views in just 3 weeks. Please do a reaction! Thank you.
I love your Angelina Jordan reactions. In your reactions i see my own reactions. She will have a consert this friday in Prøysenhuset, Ringsaker kommune . Norway. People who is going and listening to her are truly blessed! Thank you for promoting Angela Jordans CD. You can find this album on ITunes. I, of course, have it already. 😎
Wow! I'm so happy you picked the cd version of this over the on stage cell phone video!! (Still great) This whole cd (It's Magic) is incredible! She was 11 1/2 when she recorded this and her 2 originals are on it ! You should hear I'm A Fool To Want You ...Cry Me A River.. ALL of them!!! Her voice is pure magic.
Emerson, I hope you take your time, read the comments below, breath in and feel the love from your followers. What I also read is the comments from persons who have ordered and bought the Angelina Jordan’s album “It’s magic”. These comments are gold! I think this the best support we can give Emerson and other reactors. Money talks!
Angelica Hale and her pop voice will never out do Angelina. This was awesome! Angelina can sing anything. She just doesn't do those unnecessary power vocals like the pop stars. With her voice, She doesn't need to.
She performed this in one of her tour for Its Magic album.. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-LDHfbnysMrM.html This is a classic song... And Angelina just paralleled if not exceeded the original. Again she made it her own. And what I like most particularly in this song is she never tried to over sing it. She put her own style in the performance but never did she put some vocal acrobatics like other will surely do. Thankyou for the nice reaction Emerson. Your adoration for her that we see in your face is just priceless.
Please react to Grace Vanderwaal's 'Today and Tomorrow' from the Jimmy Kimmel show. She, like Angelina, sings with great emotion and maturity for her age.
You can buy her album here: www.tigernet.no/item/153003--angelina-jordan-and-forsvarets-stabsmusikkorps--it%27s-magic--cd I think they shipping it outside of Norway
You should also check this out ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-hFSSN2PlIs8.html. It's Jackie Evancho singing 'Bridge Over Troubled Water' in 2013 when she was 13!
