She Is the Greatest Alive | Angelina Jordan 

Check out My Angelina Jordan Reaction Playlist ru-vid.com/group/PLu1uqWt0C9U_x0_cLKvrdwxiDzoH2UHfj

She makes me cry she straight up reaches into my soul and she takes me carries me away on every single note she sings!

She is an old soul. She is feeling what she is singing. Amazing.

There are so many talented kids that sing or play musical instruments with amazing ability. I enjoy their performances. I watched this video because I've never heard of this girl. I Expected to see another young talented performer, but witnessed a gifted vocal artist who took me on an emotional journey whether I wanted to or not. A cascade of unbelievable beauty so profound, so unique, and solely belonging to her. And she shared it with us!

BRAVO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Masterful reaction Mr. L. As suggested in other comments, All of her performances at 7-8 years old on Norway's Got Talent are wonderful and you will see that early Jazz/Blues singing from a young child, a genius child. Her Grandma, Mery Zamani, a well known Iranian Artist exposed Angelina to Jazz music at a really young age and it is engrained in her. This rendition is amazing but all of her NGT performances are amazing also. Definitely worth your time.

Ja super ,da haben wir Talente

This is the definition of an old soul in a new body.

Try. Gloomy Sunday I'm sure you will enjoy it as I did this young lady is an absolute joy to listen to mother nature in all her glory has created a wonderful natural gifted and talented beautiful young girl the very best of good luck to her in the future thank you Angelina

Right now she's the hottest artist turning songs into magic just amazing.

Excellent, moving performance and excellent, moving reaction. Thank you Sir.

FINALLY sonone gives some love to the great band in this track. I mean, Angelina is obviously the star here, but these guys are phenomenal as well.

a true masterpiece

She did at least two performances of this, and the video was cobbled together. It's exciting to realize she can be so drop-dead perfect at re-creating her vocals in two sessions, or else re-creating them close enough to the editors can piece-together this smooth-sounding and well-sync'd video. We're probably hearing the spit-shielded mike's version instead, which is more common for studio recordings. If/when you get to her most recent 7th HEAVEN (Live Studio) video, she is again using the Shure 55-type (or your version, the 70-B), but she's lowered it below her lip, and she's dropped the spit-producing F-sounds ("...friends" becomes an almost inaudible F "...riends" sound. "No Spit" on an unshielded 55/70. It's quite a mechanical lesson she's learned.

Thanks!

Holy shit. How does a voice like this come out of a child? This is absolute art, from visuals to vocals. What an amazing young woman! This is what we need more of in mainstream!

I can't seem to comprehend in this young girl the mature expression, body movements, gestures that a much older professional artist has. Its unreal!!!! Just found her and will definitely follow.

When the record company, she, and the family push the button, she can not be ignored. But remember she is only 15 years old and still goes to school. This is something many people forget because she is so mature for her age.

She takes the next level to the next level.

This little girl doesn't just sing songs she paints them with a color loaded palit that's hard to compare, even her brush strokes need to be appreciated. She pulls you into a world with her voice that I call the Angelina Haze.

The best singer ever to grace the planet. That's how she will be remembered. How many times have you listened to her sing this song?

Angelina is one of the most addictive singers I have ever listened to, & one of the very few, that can pull you right into the song, making you feel, every word, every note, & every emotion. ❤️💙 I always have this feeling that Angelina is not only channeling some of these late great singers, but that they also pass through her, when she is singing their song ❤️💙 A rare beauty, in every sense of the word ❤️💙 Whether you are a believer in reincarnation or not, I find it very intriguing that Lou Rawls, the American Jazz & blues singer legend, passed away only a few days before Angelina was born 😊 Loved your reaction!!!

Looked up this kid she is well known in Norway, she actually sings gospel songs in church, but her voice is special, she can make grown men cry.

She sings the best version of Bang Bang I have ever heard and she was 7 yrs old. This child does all her arrangements of her back up musicians as well.

Angelina is amazing!

Another stellar performance by probably the most versatile talented singing artist in the world today.

Wow 🤩 she is so young and amazing 🤩

Bless you, my son. You have now officially been baptized in the church of Angelina Jordan! I would say it doesn't get any better than that, but it really does. On the topic of microphones, for her 12th birthday on January 10, 2018, her family gave her a Neumann TLM 103 microphone. In any videos of her singing at home from 2018 on, she is using that mic. It picks up every little nuance of her voice. She used it in the "I'd Rather Go Blind" video you reacted to. If you want to hear something totally different from Angelina, react to "Every Time We Say Goodbye", the Cole Porter classic made famous by Ella Fitzgerald in 1956. It's just Angelina accompanied by a guitarist. They are on a TV2 Morning TV show in Oslo, Norway (her hometown), outside on the rooftop of the building. The sound quality is like it was recorded in a studio and the purity of her voice is simply astounding. You can thank me later!

He's blown away .He is jus don't wanna give in .

9 !!!!!!!!

She sings The Yellow Brick Road, excellent!!

Someone forgot to forget their past before reincarnation or something. How’s a child sound this amazing and controlled. It’s intense

Unbelievable talent 👏

I absolutely love her voice and her vibe! ❤️🙏🏼

Great Reaction. Love the insight on intricate things no one else has observed........

It matters not which you watch next, every cover and every original she has done to date will blow yuo away. Gloomy Sunday her 7yr old audition for Norways got talent (she won) is as good a place as any to start my friend you are only 2 down with many many many more reactions to this amazing young lady yet to come. Subbed and awaiting your reactions

Just so AWESOME this girl is just the best ever i swear :)

Just two songs into Angelina's huge library now, and I think you can probably see why she has such a a strong fanbase. There's really nobody that compares to this girl, her versatility is something that really sets her on a special level, but it's something you won't fully understand until you see even more. As the saying goes, "real recognizes real"... I'm not even that real, and I can recognize that this kid is as real as it gets. You just can't fake it through what she does here. This is coming from deep within. Hope to see you check out more. She never disappoints. And I always try to leave this on everyone's first reaction to Angelina (I was late to your first, so you get it on your second)..... For those just discovering Angelina, here is a little bio so that you can learn a little more about her background and her kind and caring soul....... *Angelina Jordan* - Angelina Jordan was born Jan 10 2006 in Oslo, Norway. She is currently 15 - She began singing at the age of one and a half - At 2 or 3 she discovered Jazz through her grandmother and started studying all the greats from Jazz history with youtube videos. - *Why Angelina always sings barefoot* - When Angelina was 6 years old, she was traveling with her grandmother and met a poor girl with no shoes trying to make money on the streets. They talked for a while and discussed their dreams. It was cold and the girl had scars on her feet. Seeing this, Angelina took off her shoes and gave them to the girl. The girl thanked her and told Angelina she would pray for her every day. That day Angelina made a vow to always sing barefoot until all the children of the world could have shoes. To this day, whenever Angelina is performing in public, she sings barefoot as a way to remember that little girl and to remind us that there are less fortunate people in the world that could use our help. Angelina holds so true to this promise that she has sung outdoors in Norway, in december... barefoot. She has sung at a dinner with ex-pres Obama... barefoot. She went on AGT (possibly the biggest stage in the world)...barefoot. She made a promise at 6 years old, and has stuck strong to it for years. That takes a special kind of person. - She has always been the driving force behind her own singing career. It was her that asked her mother to take her to Norways Got Talent, where she auditioned at 7 years old and went on to win the whole show at just 8 years old. - In an interview after the show, when asked what she was going to do with the prize money, the 8 year old replied, "I would like to give it to orphans that need clothes and shoes" - When Angelina was 9 years old she became the youngest published author in Norway, when she wrote a book about the story of why she doesn't wear shoes when she sings. She donated proceeds from the sales of the book to help children in need. - The reason you may not have heard of her is because her parents are very protective of her childhood. After she won NGT, they did not want her to be thrust into stardom before she had a chance to grow up as a normal child, and get her education. They allowed her to do a few select shows (mainly private and charity events) with a couple public shows every year when she is out of school. Her mother said in an interview that they have turned down 90% of the offers that came in. Over the years since NGT, they have turned down offers from many major record labels and even disney. - Angelina has covered more than 130 songs and over 65 artists in the last 6 years. She always selects the songs herself... everything ranging from old classic jazz to modern pop. She is able to change her voice to match any song she sings and make it her own. (she can cover Amy Winehouse and Lana del Rey like nobody else) - Angelina has collaborated with some very big names over the last few years... Quincy Jones, Mark Ronson, David Foster, Alan Walker and many more. All of which heard her and were blown away by her talent. - Angelina has written four of her own original songs: "What is Life", "Shield", "Oslo", and "Million Miles" (all are amazing...all can be found on youtube) In summary, Angelina Jordan is destined to be one of the greatest singers to have ever lived. This is just my opinion, but if you listen closely to any of her stuff you will hear the greatness. She sings with a natural style. There is no acting, no showing off, there are no unnecessary runs, or big belty notes just for the purpose of saying "hey look at me sing". She once said "when I sing I go into a beautiful world in my head", and you can always hear the results of that. When Angelina sings it is pure soul, pure emotion, pure music. - Updates: On Aug 26, 2020 Angelina's Manager/Uncle announced in an interview that they have decided on Republic Records as the best fit for Angelina and she is now signed with them as their "highest priority new artist". On Nov 6 she released her first single under Republic... "Million Miles"! On March 19 2021 Angelina released her latest single "7th Heaven" She has done so much already, but at 15 she is just getting started!!!

Outstanding!!

Wow! What a voice and stage presence! Love listening to your thoughts and the way you break it down! You've got a great channel and I know it will continue to grow at a fast pace! Great work!👍💜

Wow I've just got chills

She grew up listening to jazz recordings. The earliest hint of her vocal prowess is a school studio recording of I Who Have Nothing at 6. By age ten, she hit her stride, with insane technical skills, and no visible nerves on stages in front of thousands and on live television. Besides jazz/blues, she does Adele better than Adele, and Amy Winehouse better than Amy. I think her best are her live covers or those recorded with a live accompaniest which allows her to control the pace and timing. Her vocal and arranging skills are expert, but I think she has a ways to go as a songwriter. Her ability to convey deep emotion and both hear and feel every word of a song is unparalleled. It was fun watching you squirm while trying to mentally process what you were seeing. We've all been there. LOL

Her voice is possessed by all the greats 👌amazing She reminds me of the mona lisa..

Next up have a listen to her rendition of “Feeling Good”. (the stream Tilbake)

She did her Screamin' Jay homework. Could almost feel him standing behind her giving clues.

👩🏻🎤🎵🌎⭐️🇳🇴❤️ Thank you, I enjoyed your second reaction to the amazingly talented Angelina Jordan. You mentioned how masterful her voice is, and one of the remarkable facts about Angelina you will discover is that she has quite a number of masterful voices. Here are a few suggestions for your next Angelina reaction (exact video titles listed after the colon): Summertime (Norway's Got Talent, age 8): Angelina Jordan Astar (8): "Summertime" by George Gershwin, Norske Talenter Feeling Good (LIVE on The Stream Gir Tilbake, age 10): Angelina Jordan (10 Year Old) - Feeling Good "LIVE on The Stream Gir Tilbake" A Million Years Ago (Angelina's Cover Channel, age 12): Angelina Jordan - A Million Years Ago Stay (Angelina's Cover Channel, age 12): Angelina Jordan - Stay Born To Die (Angelina's Cover Channel, age 12): Angelina Jordan - Born To Die What Is Life (an original composition by Angelina, age 12): Angelina Jordan - What Is Life (Acoustic) It’s A Man’s World (age 12): It's a Man's World - Angelina Jordan and Forsvarets Stabsmusikkorps - Oslo - 16.06.2018 Bohemian Rhapsody (America's Got Talent, The Champions, age 13): Angelina Jordan - Bohemian Rhapsody - AGT: the Champions - song and golden buzzer - 01/06/2020 7th Heaven (Angelina's latest single with Republic Records, age 15): Angelina Jordan - 7th Heaven (Official Studio Performance) All I Ask (Angelina's latest cover): Angelina Jordan - All I Ask (Adele Cover)

the picture on the candle is "Screamin' Jay Hawkins", who recorded his version of this song in 1956..........she was making notes to the band's arrangement at 9 !

I subscribe to your channel for two reasons: first and foremost, Angelina, second, instead of being nauseously repetitive by ignorance, you are knowledgeable, original, enthusiastic and pleasant to listen to. You are showing us one new way to approach Angelina's music and to love it, with warmth, affection and intelligence. I will be waiting for your reaction to the dancing music of her 7th Heaven.

Your the best. Love your reaction!

This is a mans world at age 12 yrs is brilliant too. Feelin good at 10 yrs. I’m a fool to want you age 7yrs. Choose a year any year, doesn’t matter....her voice is unmistakably unique and she is a delight to listen to. Enjoy.

Excellent review. Thank you. 🙏

i love the original by screaming jay hawkins but imo angelina brings this song back to life and at 9 years old she produces this wonderful cover

I see your tears and goosebumps showing, MrLboyd AND I'm sharing them with ya!

Holy crap! This kid ain't no joke!

Great review. “Masterful voice” well stated. 🤗👍👍👍

What do we have here? Let's just say, she is the greatest musical prodigy in the last 300 years. Enjoy the journey, my brother.

First time I saw a video of her she was this good BUT she was FIVE YEARS OLD! She upholds the full definition of reincarnation🤗

Great reaction. You should try the exercise of googling Angelina's name along with the name of an iconic singer from the past. Chances are pretty good that she has done a cover. You will listen and be amazed, then you'll do it again..and be amazed again. Starting to see the pattern here? Enjoy the journey! Angelina is exceptional!

It never gets old.

Thanks for another good reaction to my favourite singer. She was only 9 years old when she performed this song. It is her tribute to Screamin' Jay Hawkins, an American singer/songwriter. He wrote and performed it in 1956 and Angelina based her performance on the original, although she did make some subtle alterations to both lyrics and melody. As you continue your journey of discovering Angelina, you will come to realise that she does her own arrangements of most of the cover songs she sings. The differences may not be immediately discernible on first listening to them, but they are there. There may be a subtle change in tempo or tone, or more inflexion on some words, or a phrase may differ in pitch from the original. The amount of control that Angelina has over her voice cannot be measured. She never hurries a song. She sings in such a way that the emotions in the lyrics are felt by the listener. In this video did you notice:Angelina finishing some notes and handing them to the musical director, who smiled as he read them? They were her wishes (instructions) to the band how she wished therm to play the music. Then a brief glimpse of Mery Zamani, a well known and respected Iranian artist, who is also Angelina's maternal grandmother and the person who encouraged Angelina in her love of music, especially jazz. And then there is a shot of Angelina holding a candle upon which was an image of Screamin' Jay Hawkins. Lastly, if you had run the video to the end, you would have noticed how the "performing" Angelina, singing at a level of maturity far beyond her years, suddenly became a 9-year-old child almost instantaneously once she finished singing. From the time I first heard Angelina, way back at her first audition on Norway's Got Talent, she has amazed me.

I think this is her best song.

You are on the beginning of one of the most amazing journeys of a lifetime! Stay tuned!🤠

When an artist and song can truly make you happy, make your day and make you smile..... Having a bad day??? Listen to some AJ!!!!!❤🔥😎

She gave me chills up my spine! Such a BEAUTIFUL POWERFUL Voice! Loved it! 😍

I love listening to your reviews.. the only person who looks at more than what she is singing.. Everything you discuss is pertinent.

9 years old and gives the director the wishes written down for this song. Listen to her at 7 on Norway's Got Talent, the beginning of the world discovering this incredible music genius.

WOW WOW WOW

Check out Summertime on Norway's Got Talent when she was 8 years old or Feeling Good (Live on the Stream) when she was 10 or the James Brown classic It's A Man's World (Oslo - 16.06.2018) when she was 12.

I look for reaction videos of this just see how folks react to it. As always there are no words for our barefoot princess! Listen to Rusty he is on the know when it comes to Angelina. Welcome to the Angelina rabbit hole.Hope to see many more of Angelina from you. Great job keep them coming.

NINA SIMONE does an incredible version of this song too

Her cover of Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen.. Most excellent.

Can not get ENOUGH OF ANGELINA JORDAN ASTAR...THIS YOUNG LADY IS.. FREAKING PRICELESS.... ANGELINA...YOU BRING SO MANY Memories........You ARE ABSOLUTELY...MIND BOGGLING....I LOVE YOU...✌🏼❤️🤗 PEACE LOVE HAPPINESS 🇺🇸🦅🌎🇳🇮✝️....I HAVE INTRODUCED YOU TO MY GRANDCHILDREN....❤️U AND YOUR FAMILY... TELL YOUR GRANDMOTHER..I HAVE THE UTMOST RESPECT FOR HER N YOUR MOM AND DAD TOO....❤️U

Awesome

You did not let her finish, she held that last note for a good while! Angelina Jordan , I Who Have Nothing (complete) She was 6.

Enjoying your reactions...can't wait til you react to her originals. I'd say, don't even try to find words to describe her voice; there aren't any.

As everyone says...welcome to the world of the shoeless angel.. .the soulful siren that draws one down her rabbit hole with that velvety other worldly voice which steals ones heart with her breathy, raspy, melancholy enchantment.

I would love to hear her sing live

Fantastic reaction and welcome to the Angelina world where anyone can enter but few ever attempt to escape. I'll be seeing lots more of you as a new subscriber and I'm certain you'll be reacting to many more of her videos. .

She's something special. Please support her thru spotify or iTunes, she gets nothing from RU-vid views.

She arranged all the instruments, she is known as The Boss in the studio! And BTW she is always barefoot. In the studio, on stage wherever she sings. She feels the music in her feet and body. She is straight up perfect.

For quite a few years now people have been saying that we" humans " are approaching a time of change in spiritual evolution . I think this is what we've been seeing in recent years, especially within the arts of music etc... It actually gives me a glimmer of hope for the human race as we more than too often witness the more inhospitable nature of Homosapians.

Unbelievable! I was a fan of older versions of this song... but she knocks it out of the ballpark!

This is a man's world, have a listen Angelina Jordon

Thanks for the reaction. She was 9 years old here!!!! You stopped the song before she was completely done? One of the highlights was as long as she kept the tone at the end. I welcome you to the world of Angelina. 👍👌😊

She is remarkable. That's all.

Love the reaction! Seeing someone react to Angelina's "I Put A Spell On You" for the first time is always a joy.

Wow!

Notice how she is in complete control of that studio, band and all.

Angelinas soul expresses in her voice through a very colourful beautiful variety of multy tembral characteristics.

ANGELINA JORDAN ASTAR IS ONE OF A KIND....SHE IS NOT TRYING TO EMULATE ANYONE..... ANGELINA IS.... ANGELINA JORDAN ASTAR ✌🏼❤️🤗 PEACE LOVE HAPPINESS 🇺🇸🦅🌎✝️🇳🇮🌹🦋

Awesome reaction MrLboyd.....: )

Amo su interpretación con el sentimiento y la pasión que pone, es un alma vieja!! Su capacidad vocal es indiscutible y sorprendente!! 🙌

And what she's 10 good lord everybody step your game up she's coming

What you can’t know yet is how really good Angelina is because you’ve listened to only two songs-both bluesy tributes to the original singers. There is no question that Angelina has learned from the greats, but she gives you her own take on each song. You can see this with Summertime at 8 years old or with her staggering arrangement of Bohemian Rhapsody at 13. To give you an idea of how unique Angelina is, try Bohemian Rhapsody and see Angelina in front of an audience just mesmerizing them into silence. You asked earlier for something she composed herself. You can watch her studio version of “Seventh Heaven”, just released. It’s a combination of old school jazz singing and a modern vibe, with a stand-up bass driving the infectious rhythm. But there is so much else, in so many styles. The same girl you just watched paying tribute to Hawkins absolutes kills the classy Cole Porter classic, “Every Time We Day Goodbye” ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-KRSI8HmTHJA.html I like her covers of Adele, Rihana, Lana del Ray, and others better than the originals. Or watch her give you an unbelievable take on James Brown’s “It’s a Man’s World”. I don’t know where to stop with recommendations. Just start listening. Angelina is the best singer I’ve ever heard.

En mi vida he visto cosa igual,es lo más

Her voice is like an "out of body" exprerience! So glad I found her/you!

Holly Cow how old is this kid. She's awesome. Vibrato at such a young age is amazing

Everything she’s ever sung. She makes it look so effortless. She just opens her mouth and beauty comes forth.

Is this a mini Janis Joplin? Truly a God given gift! Hope the best for future in music!

One of the main reasons why ANGELina has a team of professional musicians around her, is due to her winning Norway's got Talent at age 9. Already after her audition, singing GLOOMY SUNDAY by Billie Holiday, she became a viral sensation. And had numerous perfomances with big bands, on Jazz festivals around Norway and the world. She's blessed with a great family that has supported her and protected her, so she's still allowed to be a child, inspite of her enormous talent. Thank you!
