Thank you Moly for reacting to this You are exactly right everything you're saying about Angelina channeling the original singer That's how I felt with this and And it seemed like something back in and the forties and fifties type of music She takes you back and time Angelina is the best And only being 16 years old and to sound like this can you imagine when she's in her twenties yes I think right now she is the best New young Vocal artist out there right now I mean she can go head to head with Adele and I absolutely love Adele But Angelina has such a unique voice this jazzy sultry breathy powerhouse Voice and she's only 16 so like I said it's gonna be crazy here and about another 3 years Her voice is gonna be so powerful I'm glad I'm here to witness such a beautiful voice as Angelina's And Whitney Houston was one of my most favorite singers I grew up listening to Whitney And on a side note Angelina looks absolutely gorgeous especially when they bring the camera in on her like they did and she lit up like a beautiful angel Great reaction Moly you're the best💖💖❤❤🧡🧡💛💛💚💚💙💙💜💜💝💝
The Cinemaphotography, a total MASTERPIECE, Excellent ART Cole McCarthy! Angelina at 16 is the MASTER of her universe, she is top priority for both Stargate, and Republic Records. AJ's voice has been unique since she was 7 years old and now at 16, she controls us as an audience, leaving us hang on every word and phrase. AJ adopts the performance to pay homage to the original hit but then makes it her own and so much better than the original. Credits: Director: Cole McCarthy Executive Producer: Mery Zamani Art Director: Chip McCarthy Piano & Arrangements: Rob Christie Gaffer: Kevin Rios Coordinator: Michael Astar Location: Los Angeles, CA ℗All Rights Reserved - Angelina Jordan Inc There are no ends to the unique signature voice of Angelina Jordan, and her ability to feed our need for the finest STORYTELLING ARTIST that has ever lived in this period of time. At 75 I thought I had experienced the greatest, but nothing compares to AJ.
I am often at a loss for words, when trying to describe Angelina Jordan's voice, or what genre she fits in, & I have come to accept, that she does not fit in any category, or genre, & is simply in league all of her own.....This young lady is able to touch hearts & bring out emotions, some of which, we newly discover, while listening to her magical voice....Angelina, is like the Hope Diamond, incredibly rare, perfect clarity, shines brightly, and absolutely stunning to look at! What an amazing gift Angelina is!!! 💝 I truly believe Whitney would be proud!💗💗💗 **RIP BEAUTUFUL** 💗💗💗
Well Molly I loved watching you in this reactionary video. You made it what an old man like myself looks for in these videos. Angelina brings out with her valnerability and expert vocals for everyone what every one feels is pure love. Watching you very closely to see you reacting to pure love is like watching my wife reacting with pure love to me, something I haven't seen or felt in a very, very long time. Thanks for that pure reaction. Remember pure reaction is what everyone tunes in for not so much analytics music makes the connection for everyone, tis timeless Old to Young. Your eyes said it all.
Molly, first time I watch your reaction to a song and I loved it. About Angelina and I Have Nothing, this song is been in her since she was a little girl and I have the feeling that we haven't heard the last version from Angelina. This cover was a masterpiece, but she will find a way to make it better. Finally, you use the word "channeling" a lot and I think that you are absolutely right. She let beautiful songs get into her, and then she let them go from the deepest parts of her heart. It sounds simple, but this girl has dedicated her life to give us beautiful moments and she has shown us that if you are an artist with sensitivity and skills, you don't need to go through pain and suffering in your own life in order to express human emotions. God bless her.
16 years old and delivering a vintage performance ! Only Angelina can do this ! I agree with you Angelina is able to embody the artist's essence and still put her own stamp on the performance ! She has been an old soul since she was a child and that is becoming more and more evident as she matures ! There is no singer that emotes so much emotion within me and honestly I can't get enough of this beautiful young singer ! I could listen to her songs over and over and still listen again and again ! They're that fabulous ! Thank you as always for your heartwarming and sincerely appreciative reactions to our barefoot princess ! You're one I love to watch ! Take care sweetheart and hope you are feeling better soon ! God bless and keep posting 👍😊🇨🇦🇨🇦❤️❤️❤️
From the dramatic entrance of her voice after the silence, to the amazing long note at the end. Just a perfect performance. She embodies the meaning and heart of the song, is a great analogy.
I agree Angelina transported the song, simultaneously, to the jazzy 1960's and digital 2020's (self-harmonies near the end) and still channeled Whitney Houston. How does anyone do that? Angelina is amazing!
She always pays respect to the original artists, but she always puts her own feelings into the rendition, after she has found the true core of the song. A musical magician!
Wow... 16, and she did that... always blows my mind ❤️ When she did this in Norway, she spoke about her grandma Mery being sick, but getting better, I think this performance is dedicated to her grandma ❤️ I just felt her hurt and love in this performance ❤️
AJ's performance is absolutely stellar. She has to belt near the top of her range, and she handles the key change perfectly. Very little vocal strain or pressure. Her riffs during the coda are from another planet -- and the way she sustains fry and vibrato and breathiness throughout her runs is her signature: easily the best I've every encountered. This is what happens when you bring a classic jazz mentality to pop.
Would you believe she's even better live. Saw her concert in Norway 10th July. She sang 18 songs and had a blast - incredibly confident on stage, laughing and chatting with the crowd. Several good recordings of this - Mattias Axelsson has been used by several reactors.
At her last concert on July 10th 2022, when Angelina told why she sings this song and dedicated it to her grandmother Mery Zamani, I understand this song completely differently. Before it was a beautiful song sung great, now it touches my heart every time. I'm absolutely certain that this video and the Elvis cover was recorded at the same time and in the same venue, well before Angelina's trip to Norway (Angelina did a TV performance there with two songs and 3 sold out concerts, there are many YT videos of it, info for the people who didn't know it yet) . Both high-end produced videos were produced by Angelina's own label. 💯 *AJ* 💯
Your reaction to this epic rendition was very very good. 'Channeling', 'Embodying' Such perfect words to describe Angelina's genius that plays out in song.
She sang this as her opening song at the sing-along concert in Norway. Had her hair up with strands laying across her face on each side. The wind kept blowing those strands into her face and mouth, so much that she had to redo the whole performance right after the first. Good as those outdoor presentations were, there were distractions and pitch issues which would not be acceptable to Angelina. I think that's why she chose to release this...with her hair down and out of the wind.
Angelina has been influenced by all these great artist from the past. She understood their passion and what thrived them to become the best. Angelina has a natural gift and form of expressing. I think she's brilliant to the core. I enjoyed your reaction Molly. Hope you get to feeling better.
First of all I must say, you may not be feeling the best young lady, but you look fantastic. I loved this performance when it was premiered, but then I read a comment similar to the one made here by Kent Ove Wagenes, and I could feel and see the emotion as though she were singing this directly to her Grandma Mery, and it became even better to me. I only watch Angelina reactions, so I was doubly pleased when I saw that you were reacting to this video. Great job Molly!
Molly, as usual you nailed it! She honors the artist but makes the song uniquely hers. She takes the most modern of songs and transports it to her era which is a mix of a 40/50/60s/jazz/blues universe. Heaven on Earth!
Gosh Molly, so great to have you back, especially reacting to Angelina. What a wonderful, insightful analysis. Sorry you're under the weather. You look fantastic, btw. Feel better!
There are hundreds of singers out there but not one of them can draw you in like Angelina. Her breathy vocal instantly wraps you in a trance-like state. She bathes you with the lyrics and effortlessly hits the high notes. A true entertainer.
Who wants to make a bet that she will be performing this very song and maybe one more on David Foster's next Las Vegas special of his annual Foster and Friends Show......
Always look forward to Your Reactions and Comments to Angelina have seen them All multiple times Always joy to watch looking forward to the next one 😀 ~ OneLove 🕊
LOve you reaction to this masterpiece Molly! LOved to watch your beautiful face change and smile and take in all the nuances in her version of this beautiful song. Totally agree on your views of the photography, setting, dressing style.
Wonderful reaction Molly😍 Every time she sings this song in her version, she gets even better, she is just amazing in the ability to put passion and emotion into her voice. This is a splendid example of Angelina's extraordinary and unique work, her extraordinary intelligence and musical sense, through which she absorbs and transforms into her interpretations of her the great songs she loves so much. If you want see in the same session a splendid mix of her different genres, watch the videos of her from the last weeks of her 3 concerts in Norway, they are simply wonderful, her return to the stage has been legendary, after more than two years. The best sound quality comes from Mattias Axelsson's or Alexander Holthoer's personal RU-vid channels.💛🧡❤
Great tonic for you Molly,She gets better all the time ,love her concerts in Norway wish l could have bee there, not keeping well last few months.aOld age is areal bitch but can you doMolly Love Frances.xx
She is, the original artist making covers her own...She devours so many different genres and performs an Angelina Jordan song...This is what great performers do...Bob dylan ..Woody Guthrie, Beatles...early rock and roll, and blues, Billy Joel..Ray Charles....Elton John..the Beatles....Elvis...black artists rock and roll...so many influences they too devoured...but presented themselves as true originals....This is no different for Angelina....She fits that mold comfortably....Like a handful before her....she, now lights the stage....and how fortunate are we ..to witness another great original evolution.
Angelina Jordan Got this song for time to her concert in Norway 40,000 people there and what a stellar performance she did she did Lebanon brain by Rihanna million miles original song of hers several other songs we flew from St. Louis to New York New York in Oslo Norway to Hara what a treat today or if that was in live
I love a very well done cover to a song. I listen to all kinds of covers. IMO, one thing that makes a great cover is the ability to add who you are to it and really elevate the song instead of trying do the exact same thing as the original artist. I think Molly said it best with this one is that Angelina channeled Whitney but at the same time was still Angelina Jordan. Great cover.
Molly I'm always excited when I see you're doing a reaction I always enjoy them so much you love Angelina as much as everybody else does she never ceases to amaze me I'm 76 years old and I've never heard anything like that before thank you so much for doing the reaction I hope you get to feeling better I really do
She has become the best all-round singer in the world, period! 16 years old. Thanks also to Republic Records and the team around her. And thanks to Angelina for letting us have old clips where you try all the time, and even play a chord wrong on the piano or guitar when you're practicing, and you choose to post it. It is what has made you the greatness you are today. No other artist does this today. Everything somehow becomes more real listening to you. Thanks for bringing real music back!
Yeah I've been hooked since 2014 Gloomy Sunday. I think she is a Soul Catcher personally. Most people haven't a clue the actual aether energy all around us, the Tartarian buildings, roads, canals, cathedrals, banks, post offices, capitol, federal, state, county, city etc old world structures we now use and claim as our own... All harnessed the aether energy for free not so long ago. Angelina is the embodiment of that, she can actually harness what's floating around all of us. I know it's why we are so drawn into her when she unleashes her gift of voice unto us. I sincerely hope her deal with Stargate is short as they have way too many clients of the black eye club.
Angelina Jordan sign republic records at the age of 14 they’re happy to have her for sure she was several original songs I just want to shot and you’re gonna watch for TV program
Never was a human on this planet with such a voice, she is heavenly and now 16years old and started with singing with 1 1/2 years with jazz, all her genius vocal technics are absolutly amazing, and her disciplin will bring angelina on the top of the musicworld, of sure 👑♥️🌹🌟she have give 3 concerts in norway and their she singing many covers to masterpieces, very difference songs, no problem for angelina
First off, Molly, if this is how you react and look when you're feeling down, I can't imagine you when you're feeling great. You are absolutely beautiful, and I saw your beautiful eyes in a different light today (pun intended). I really have to say that this is one of the best reactions to her I have watched. Big cudos to you for that ♥ Needless to say then, I agree with everything you said. You caught the essence of her as a singer and artist. I have heard you talk about a sickness in previous reactions, but I don't know what the problem is, and I don't need to know either. I just hope and pray that it is something that you will be able to work your way out of or recover from🙂 The world needs more people like yourself. Much love from Norway♥♥♥♥♥♥🙏🙏🙏
Nice analysis. You really hit the point imho. She stayed near to the original, but at the same time expressing her own in this, like in "Bohemian Rapsody" and "Suspicious Minds," where she changed the wole song. I suppose, before doing a song, she looks at the material, she has, decides, how it should be done, to express herself in it and then trying to pay respect to the original singer, or the one she relates to. This she is often doing via styling: in "Bohemian Rapsody" by the colours, "Suspicious Minds" like everybody can see and now this, Diva mode. Btw, I hope it was helpful and lifted you up. Whish you the best! 🌧☀🌈
It's everything and at the same time, something we can't totally explain and she does something to us. It made me research because of my own experience and there is a difference in reactors. It's like (BC & AD) in historical time with many reactors. She might just change the world?
its easy for Angelina to be classy because she is always a class in her own,,,,its easy for her to sing because she is the music,,,,,she is humble, wise, kind and has soul healing powers,,,,,,,an angel
Love your reaction Molly! She’s amazing! Just can’t understand how she can be so amazing at such a young age, just as I can’t understand your floating earrings. Lol 😆 Take care of yourself!
Great one again Molly. You look very good BTW, and so does this set-up of yours. Totaly fitting for Angelinas video. And by this, Angelina confirm to my mind that it is as many of us thinks and even say: The sky is the limit for her amazing talent and creativity. And every song she takes on, she brings with her, into the stardom wich she aimes for. Always very well grounded though, with her bare feet to this earth, with all its facets for life as it comes with in human lives.
Norway about four rows from her on the right side and she said let’s live it was tremendous but I want you to hear this my heart is gonna be good I couldn’t wait to watch your face I know it’s gonna uplift you I’m glad you enjoyed it
Angelina has performed ‘I Have Nothing’ three times (I’m grouping all of live versions together). The original- ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-eTcvvO6B3Io.html - has 14.5 million views and the live version - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-AqtIVYFjapQ.html - has 1.3 million views in less than 3 weeks, it is the Official version - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-iX0g99jN26U.html - has more than 60,000 views in one day. Not only is the Official version the best it has the potential to vastly outstrip the other versions by the end of the year if not earlier. I personally think the Official version is better than Whitney Houston’s version.
Molly, for someone not "up to par" you look fantastic and sound great and you had a lot to say. I agreed with much of what you said. The one dimension I would add to what is going on is her voice adds a strong element of love to whatever she sings and it's something that cannot be manufactured or taught. Yes, she pays homage to the original song and the artist, as well, but her version is engulfed with a feeling of love to such a degree the listener feels it in their heart. It's amazing. And, so is she.
Angelina took it to awoke ne level last year in Norway when She dedicated l have Nothing to her Granma Mery and She absolutely nailed itMolly10Julyin Norwayplease Listen to t Frances fromScotland xx.
When discussing performers who have influenced her career, Whitney is in her list. Earliest recording I have seen of her singing (in an interview on Norwegian TV around the NGT time) is when she was about 18 month singing Whitney into a karaoke mic. When her mother he8her she realized her daughter had a special gift. Thank heavens she has nurtured her,
Angelina 16 years old here she’s 6 foot tall and her voice is so much more developed her timbre is fantastic Her note that she sings with now that’s in the 🔑 of E
That was a superb cover of Whitney Houston's song by Angelina!!!🎶👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽Great reactions and outro to this outstanding performance and presentation, Miss Molly!!!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽I hope you are feeling better. Get plenty of rest and avoid the heat.
Looks like Angelina had the effect on you that was needed to feel better. Funny, but it brought me to tears...happy ones. Just what the doctor ordered. Thank you for your reaction to our musical wonder. Take care from Alaska
Suspicious minds and then this.... You all know these things don't happen overnight so I wonder what else they already have recorded and in the can ready to be brought out to us.
Very nice to hear your reactions Molly. I think most of us listening to Angelina get the same positive feelings, in particular energizing after a tuff day. We need more of her, definitely.
Angelina is medicine for the body and soul, and I’m glad a few of your subscribers egged you on to check out this amazing lady. Excellent reaction, and your set looks great. Hope you feel better.
