Angelina wrote the lyrics for this song about her late grandfather, and the artwork for the video was done by Angelina and her grandmother. It was also produced by a Norwegian duo Stargate. There are a couple things that can be taken from all this... 1)The whole thing really shows that Republic Records is giving Angelina the artistic freedom that we had all hoped they would. ...and 2) given this full freedom, Angelina is going to be producing many, many masterpieces in the coming years.
The depth of the lyrics, the melody, all created by a 14 year old girl will never cease to amaze me. What a beautiful creation done by a beautiful creation!!!
We are a proud adoptive family. Our child has been introduced to the world. We have been mesmerized of her since she was eighteen months old. We have watched with wonder as she has grown for these past years. We have just walked down the isle and given her to the world. God’s speed. Angelina
Bill In her "Gloomy Sunday" video from NGT, we see Angelina's mother backstage wiping her tears. When asked in an interview what was going throught her mind, Sara answered that she realized she was losing Angelina to the world.
She is a pure magician with both vocals and lyrics ❤️❤️❤️ And she's still a very young girl. But have a deep soul. The text is about her having lost her grandfather ❤️❤️❤️❤️ And you know what? - she herself has all the controll making this...
Does listening in You Tube to a song affect the charts? Since buying records or cds I've no idea how to affect the charts .. is it based on how often the songs are played on radio? Do they acknowledge online listening?
I can only imagine what she is going to give to the whole world... personally I believe she will never give control of her soul's voice to any record label and her first release tells it all...beautiful reaction..
Joyce, I was about to agree and then realized we don't just have to imagine what she's going to give the world .. she's been doing it all along .. she's already given us over 120 videos of amazingly varied songs .. which include four of her own .. and all of them are given to us from her deep and exquisite heart. In so many ways she's given us the gift of her generous heart .. we get to see and be the recipients of how she honors and respects every single writer and composer of the songs that she covers and the musicians that play when she sings. I'm so glad you said that, Joyce, because it made me realize how much i receive from her that way .. and how grateful I am to her and to all who love her and feel her as I do. 2020 may have been one of the toughest years for so many because Covid added so much to all the other issues and problems we had been suffering.. but 2020 is also the year that a little girl from Norway who sang barefoot in her white dresses and with flowers in her hair became more available to us and to our hearts with gifts showing up from her almost daily. And .. the gratitude I feel is not just for her .. but for her mother and her family who started to video everything she was doing from the start .. and have shared so much with us freely and generously .. I am realizing as i write this that my heart is full .. and I am so grateful for her, for her family, and for all of you that share your love and respect for her openly and with joy. I would not be surviving these times as well as I am without all of you .. and I am grateful for Angelina's spirit and her devotion to her God-given talent from such an early age. I'm going to stop this because i can't see anymore because there are so many people in my tears ... thank you, thank you, thank you. ❤
I’m not religious, not even close, but once in a while a person appears that seem to have a short cut to your heart! AJ does that to me and I love it ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
This song must be no 1 !!!!! Angelina did it again. Her talent over flowing , her voice full of emotion, her lyrics are amazing. Since the release I have heard it about 100 times. Every time she makes me cry and it's not because she is clever. It's because she is a pure TALENT!!!!!!! Thank you so much that you always react to Angelina with love and admiration.
Angelina wrote this song to remember her loving grandfather. In these dark days of covid, this song will provide relief for millions of suffering people. God bless Angelina, the greatest musical artist to come along in my lifetime.
She has already built the song Shield (which you owe a reaction to) where she has already shown her maturity and competence in acting, it is inimitable. She will be very big, she made this song "A Million Miles" for her grandfather who died a short time ago and that she loved a lot !!. For me she remains an angel who fell from heaven and they forgot to come and get it !!!. "Lucky for us !!!!!!!". Her singing and words in this song "A Million Miles" continue to expel a lot of light, love, delicacy, colors and dedication. It is the light that comes from the star that one day it slipped and ended up here with us !!!!. I agree with you, she is enlightened by God !!!
Oh! Oh! Oh! Sooooo beautiful ! Straight to the heart💝 takes me to another dimension!! What the?? How does she do this??? Love this treasure! One in a lifetime. Bring on the next batch!! Can't get enough of this talented genius!!!😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
With the release of this incredibly beautiful and soulful single, Angelina’s career is about to go stratospheric. We Angelina fans are about to embark on an exciting journey as we watch Angelina’s fame lift off. This is going to be a fun and fantastic ride so we better buckle up.
Absolutely brilliant! I agree, I am very impressed and very proud! Congratulations Angel-ina 💖...she truly is a blessing! To all, be safe and stay well 🙏!
Once again, Angelina demonstrates that she can do things that others can't. One could talk all day about the technical aspects of the video style and her usual exquisite vocal control/choices. But what sweeps that all away is the emotional impact on the listener as individual people and memories from our past come flooding back. In the same way that she gives her "wishes" to other musicians before a performance on how things should unfold she said she "hopes" this song will find a place in our hearts. What she leaves out of that is upon our hearing this she will be performing emotional heart surgery on us to deposit it there. A powerful song from a serious artist. Well done, Angelina!
@@marydaisy7988 and to all grieving from losing their loved ones. Not a mistake how many times she says "I'm never alone " .. that is a seed she planted in our grieving hearts to hear when we need it. ❤
@@louisegogel7973 Exactly !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. Congratulations, said everything in a few words !!!!!. Congratulations !!! KKKKKKKKK (laughs). Only Angelina is capable of that !!!!!!
It’s a beautiful song, different from much of what she’s done before, but at times you hear the familiar voice that is uniquely Angelina. She has a way of riding the crests and dips of the music, but not giving you the payoff where you expect. Part of Angelina’s magic is making you listen because you’re hearing something that’s new and different each time. What’s not different, though, is her ability to express so openly and sincerely her immersion in the song. In this case, she gives up a very personal look into her life and what’s important to her. And Angelina does it her way-surprising us with something different and moving in her first release under contract. I think it’s a signal that the reasons we’ve loved Angelina’s singing in the past will continue.
Not only the lyrics but keep in mind English is her second language! That something to note about Aurora, too. These Norwegians have some kind if sixth sense.
From what I’ve heard Angelina and her grandmother were involved in the video part of this recording. I think it is totally amazing. Since the release of this song (less than 24 hours). I can’t count the number of people reacting to Angelina’s 1st original from Republic Records. It’s awesome.
Commit from Angelina concerning this song: "This song is dedicated to anyone who has lost a loved one. I wrote this song thinking about all the great memories I had with my grandpa and how much it hurts to lose someone. I hope this song finds a place in your heart, as it comes straight from mine" . -AJ Yes she wrote the lyrics and she and her grandma did the art work!
She should probably be aware that fans know of hers and her family's losses, but now her dedication to include everyone else's personal losses? What's next - is she going to never wear shoes or something out of consideration and to draw attention to others less fortunate? Oh wait... yes... her maturity is only underscored by this dedication's maturity. This is NOT new for her. WE need to get used to this. I think she earns huge kudos for that alone.
@@BuffaloC305 You're absolutely right. This is just Angelina being Angelina. No, we're not the least bit surprised by it, but we should never stop appreciating it.
what surprised me the most is that this song is just pure Angelina, she stayed true to her self, nothing is fake, no voice twisting, no big sound, not many special effects, no genre she doesn't like, ...simply Angelina, she expresses her honest feelings in this song, she sings from the bottom of her heart. That really touched me. Why did it surprise me at first, I don't know, because that's the way she is, that's the way she always was, I should've known better.
Yes ...it s radio friendly..and i think that where the label do a bit influence to her to come up with a pop sound arrangement...it s not 100% AJ style to sing the lyric....still sound beautiful
Beautiful, absolutely gorgeous and you can hear how she is coming into her own and thanking all those who help made it possible. For me she is all ready a "Super Star". Love your reaction and the breakdown. Thank you.
She dedicated this song to everyone who had lost anyone they loved. At this time of the Pandemic with so many people losing loved ones, it is a stunning release. you're right that her grandmother did the artwork (most probably with Angelina at her side!) I so appreciate your response to this .. thank you!
Only one thing to say.i love it and if you do and really want her to be commercially successful then buy it . Record company's judge artists by Sales .. great reaction , thumbs up 👍
Angelina is an old soul with amazing breadth and depth in her vocals! She said this song was dedicated to anyone who has lost a loved one. She was thinking about all the great times she had with her Grandpa, and how much it hurts to lose someone! What an Angel Star!
I'm so glad the music isn't over the top. My favorite Angelina tunes are the ones with a solo guitarist or like AGT a piano and guitar, where her voice can shine through. She could sing the phone book acapella and I'd be in heaven. It also sounds like they're allowing her to be 'Angelina'. That's an answer to a prayer.
Thank you for mentioning the word "taint" in relation to major recording label companies, because "tainting" appears to be so true from what I've seen in the past. I believe that because the world is watching Republic label will not harm her career and try to "Americanize" Angelina too much. Angelina has such soulfulness, I hope that what she sang before this will not be lost.
I am not familiar with the record industry, and yet my sense of this one is that they are very choosy and decide to take someone on because they see something very special in the person and want to nurture that uniqueness.
This beautiful young lady just oozes greatness. I love her so much. She is the best there ever was and I am a "metal head", lol. One girl will change the world and that girl is Angelina Jordan.
She wanted the first song she releases to the world through the record company to be dedicated to her grandfather who passed away a few years ago and she also wrote down these amazing words and the emotion in her voice just breaks us down, by the way her grandfather was Japanese 🇯🇵
This masterpiece is about her grandfather who past away in 2018. She also say it is to all out there who have lost someone. It comes from her heart she say. Angelina share this with us, and I'm so thankful for that. My mother died two monts ago, so my eyes have been full of tears every time I have played it.❤
Nice reaction Soul to a beautiful new song from our Angelina! This song is going to go global. It will help to mend many hearts that have suffered loss.
Nice reaction! She is pretty amazing, isn't she? We all worried/wondered about Angelina and what direction her first major label single might take. This is spectacular! We all know Angelina shares emotion better than most, but this is OMG next level! I am filled with emotion by the lyrics but moreso by the voice. That voice!! Sadness and comfort envelop me. I feel such a connection to Angelina through her music. Her star is on the rise!!
amazing song she is so creative but have to thank her family cause thats were she gets her strengh love everything so she is allowed to express herself freely wonderfull cant waite for album
She is all of Norwegian golden voise ❤️❤️ At the age of 7 she won Norwegian tallents,... . While other children were out playing, she went to the record beekeepers to listen to music. Jazz was, and still is the favorite... She was not always happy in school, she was so bored, "hated it" but as soon there was music she was all in ❤️❤️❤️ So she's a realy special young girl. And we value her highly.
This is just me guessing of course but Angelina probably wanted this released first as a tribute because it hurts that her grandpa can't share her success with the record label and she had to honor his memory and the love that they shared.This song also leaves no doubt that her sensitivity and love continues to develop her talent and not the ego.Kudos also to Republic Records for not stifling her genius.Loved your reaction,thank you.
Soul, the more you listen to this the more it grows on you. I agree with the message. We should pass on sadness and replace it with a tender smile and warmth from within us when we think of our loved ones who have passed on. And, it is alright to share thoughts with them whenever the need to do so is there.
Angelina has the rare ability to bypass our ears and go straight to our hearts 💕...thank you Soul for the beautiful and thoughtful reaction to this incredible, poignant song.
Many people talk about Angelina's voice "healing" powers and this song just proves that. In a moment in the world where we had to be apart, be it because of the pandemic or because we had lost someone we loved, Angelina brings so much comfort in the concept that "I'm never alone" Also, Soul, she and her grandma made most of the drawings used in the video. They are in the same style her grandma Mery used to illustrate Angelina's book "Between Two Hearts" where she talks about her experience meeting this young girl in the Middle East and the reason behind why she doesn't wear shoes when singing 💖
That overlay of her singing the lyrics under her last crescendo is simply MAGNEFICENT! What a wonderful song to release as a preview for her upcoming album (January I think). And how appropriate for the loss experienced by so many people around the world because of this terrible pandemic. Here's what Angelina wrote: "This song is dedicated to anyone who has lost a loved one. I wrote this song thinking about all the great memories I had with my grandpa and how much it hurts to lose someone. I hope this song finds a place in your heart, as it comes straight from mine".-Angelina Jordan We all need to buy at least one copy (more if possible) to help launch her professional career. And also her album when it is released. Loved your reaction Soul. 😊💕
Glad you saw Angelina's new song, thanks for the beautiful and understandable reaction. I loved your connection with her lyrics and understanding of her essence, thank you very much. This is a really beautiful work and it brings out her beautiful voice, it's an unusual harmony for her ... but in the end what can be unusual for her? 😂 😌 It's definitely a good start with Republic, a sweet song dedicated to grandfather and people who have lost someone, but also full of hope, with beautiful lyrics, especially for a 14 year old girl, and her voice ... more and more fascinating and so by Angelina ❤️ Angelina and grandmother Mery, a beautiful story of an inspired family. I love it, it's just amazing ❤️ ❤️ You can hear it a million times, I'm on the right track to do it, and I get excited every time ... and I love Grandma's drawings, they're so "right" for Angelina's voice and story. Angelina's slow advance on the steps towards the moon is of infinite sweetness, it's a beautiful portrait of her 🤗 🤗 Her uncle Michael had written that they had signed the contract with Republic because they had guaranteed conditions that suited Angelina, it could not have been otherwise ... In just the first day it was viewed more than 60,000 times
I always look forward to your Angelina reactions. I've seen this several times, but every time is like the first. The tears still show up, I can't hold them back. Thank you!!!
Spetacular song, terrific talent, gorgeous soul!!! Angelina is the whole package! We are blessed to have her creating pure art and singing her heart out to all the world!! Nice reaction Soul! Cheers!!!
She is one of my favorite female Singers, she and dimash are greatest artist. These two are the very best in my opinion. They sing with heart and soul, every time hearttouching
Beàutiful song; beautiful voice.... poetic lyrics. Good job AJ. Continue climbing that ladder. Reach further for your stàrs. I'll see you through until you reach your dreams.❤greàt reaction!!!👍peace man✌
Good morning Soul. I have only just opened up your reaction to million miles and heard you say, "did you really think I was going to miss Angelina's first major release...," I laughed because yesterday I sent you a comment from a different reaction comment section, telling you to stop whatever you were doing and get on it. You need to know, my impatience was born out of the fact that you are my favorite Angelina reactor because you get her. You understand her. You get it as I get it. You even commented once about her bare feet in a way that made me cry. So endearing. So, I dont know if what you said in your opening words was directed at me or if others put the pressure on too. But I laughed. I can honestly say Soul, you are someone i would very much appreciate dialoguing with. Is that a possibility? Say on messenger maybe. I like you. I think you're a good man. The way you esteem our superstar makes me very happy.
If you ever what to go back and listen to a part you just heard, that would be great, just move the red line at the bottom back a little bit and you can relive the magic. Sometimes I am just not ready for the song to end.
