You said it!!!! ”She's singing the message of the song". And she sing the message so well with emotion. That's what makes her far better than most artist today. It's not all about belting and runs it's about making the audience captivated with your voice. And this is why certain people that like these artists that just sing beautiful make me think, " do these people know what music should really feel like"? And they make me angry when they say oh that artist is better than that artist, when they don't even know what music is all about. Music is all about how Angelina Jordan sings and it's hypnotic and it's addictive. AJ forever ❤
This song is her best of the best. If she does not want to record it as a single, then the least she could do for us "Angels" is make sure she puts it in her new album coming out in the spring. Alot of broken hearts out there if it disappears entirely.
She is fantastic *regardless of age.* If she had been 30 years of age here it would have been fantastic. Now here she's ten, which is just frickin unbelievable.
I heard Angelina will never sing this song again. Knowing Angelina's feelings on the song I kinda feel like a cheat every time I listen to this performance, but I can't help myself, it's so good.
This song by Angelina is just genius! I also kinda feel guilty to listen to it, but it's a guilty pleasure ;) Thanks for the reaction by the way, it was great to listen to a vocal coach's opinion!
@absoftitanium this is wrong... There is lot of misinformation about the circumstances of this song. I have myself been there, thinking I knew what had happened, but I was wrong. Brandon Lowry who is "Baby FuzZ" wrote this song in collaboration with Aksel Carlson, Ronney Janssen, Frida Amundsen. I heard The song was shopped around to different artists, for maybe a publishing. When Angelina Jordan recorded a demo, there was no contact between Angelina Jordan or her manager with Baby FuzZ about changing the Lyrics. Angelina Jordan did not want the song to be released, however it was leaked. Baby FuzZ released his version of the song because no one asked him about recording it. later he listened to Angelina’s version and loved it. So Baby FuzZ was unfairly criticized and verbally abused online although he was never approached by Angelina about changing the lyrics. So I think we all should thank him!!, and appreciate the fact that he did not block Angelina’s video....Because he could easily do that, as it is HIS song. Here is his channel and his song.. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-q5HsABS4OXQ.html hope you all visit him, and be grateful, and not rude. Thanks for reading this ;)
It was not ment as a cover. It was written for her, but she did not want it, so another artist got it. Angelina wanted to change the lyrics so it suited her age, but the composer wouldn't do that.
Nice reaction again. This song in her voice is liquid gold. I think that if the songwriter and Angelina make the right think this song will be one of the greatest. But i just enjoy. Well new song of Angelina AGT. look that.
thanks for reacting to this song. This is my favorite from Angelina. The way she pronounces certain words is incredible. Plus sometimes I go just by the music only and this song is amazing in that aspect.
You keep saying "for her age" .. to me she's fantastic for *_any age_* Apart from that, I really enjoy Your technical details in the analysis. Even if I'm not a vocalist myself, it helps in understanding more of the art of singing. Btw, She's just 10 years old in this recording
@@artfartzy The song was written (completed with a demo recording) at a "songwriting camp" in Oslo in 2016 and it's also co-written by the same people involved in the creation of _Shield,_ all of which attended this symposium. _Baby FuzZ_ aka _Sterling Fox_ aka _Brandon Lowry_ (the main composer) then tried to get this song recorded with numerous vocalists until he finally 2 years later decided to do the vocals himself. You can also compare Angelinas voice in this recording with her _"Autumn Leaves"_ recorded later that year. You'll notice that she's got a minor "autumn cold" and slightly swollen sinuses when doing that song, but the 'maturity' in her voice is very similar.

I'm still holding out for you song written by Brandon Lowry( also goes by Baby Fuzz), Ronny Janssen, and Frida Amundsen they went to 10-year-old Angelina with it and Angelina made this cut but Angelina's family didn't like the ending lyrics referencing suicide and asked for a lyric change from the authors and they refused so Angelina refused her video. Then the video was leaked, later on, Angelina has stated she would never sing the song again. It's a terrible shame as it could have been a mega-hit.
This has to be my favorite performance of hers and I wish they could come to some agreement to tweak the lyrics so she will do the song, it would be amazing.
It would go Platinum, sell millions of copies, and Angelina would get the recognition she deserves. We "Angels" already know she is a Super Star. It is just a matter of her finding the right material, and then everybody on the planet will know too! She is Magnificent in this song
If Angelina will going to sing this in the on going AGT Champions.... The competition will be over.😉 That's how powerful this song is. Of course it's only my honest opinion.
Ulyses, Angelina wasn't going to win no matter what song she sang. She wouldn't agree to AGT’s terms, so the best singer ever on any tv talent show, much less the global Got Talent franchise, wasn't allowed to win. But, by performing on the show she got the greater world exposure that she needed.
Gosh!!! I love the way you reacting to Angelina songs!!! She is so dam good!!!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 please react react angelina jordan AGT CHAMPIONS !!! She rocked singing Elton John's Goodbye Yellow Brick Road
As others have said, I think we need to drop the "for her age" in our assessment of Angelina. I've listened to all ages of singers in my lifetime... she's right there with the best of them. I think that when you say it, you mean, "she is an incredible singer, _and_ she's only 12!"(as she was here) ...but it can easily be heard as "she's great for 12, but it wouldn't hold up in the adult world". We all know that is not the case, and most of us assume this is not what you mean... but this is why it gets pointed out when people say it.
The guy that has this song, Gustov on his channel is still DELETING all ppl 's comments as far as this song. If he DOESN'T want ppl 2 comment on this song than he should remove it!! Just WANTED 2 pass that on 2 you.
@@truthwarrior7934 yes, this has been the case for the whole life of this video. He deletes the comments regularly. I don't know his reasons for this. I saw a response to one inquiry that was basically "because it's my channel and I'll do what I want", but I think it is because he doesn't want the argument surrounding this video to build up on his channel.
@@alberttenfoot at your age you've earned the right to "petulant old man" ;) I was really just trying to make the distinction that the age thing can be seen as a compliment or a belittling... depending on the interpretation. I think it was meant as a compliment here.
Thanks for another reaction to Angelina. I thought you had forgotten her! I think this is the 8th reaction you have done of Angelina's performances. Isn't it about time you accept that "age" is irrelevant when referring to her?
Thank you for doing this reaction of Angelina Jordan. This is a song that was leaked out onyou tube because this was a demo song and she refuses to sing it ever again .this originally a song from baby fuzz and because of the lyrics at the end her family have tried to block this video because it never should have reached you tube . But this is one of my all time favorite song from her. Her song in the finals ar out now and there are a song from a duo from Norway called trxd where Angelina is featuring with the vocals and ITS so very diffrent music genre than you heard Angelina sing before bouth songs are worth reacting to
Hi Frank I love your reactions on Angelina :) Yesterday they released his cover of Elton John in AGTC ... the format of show is horrible, but the rewriting of Angelina's of that song is amazing, like the other its interpretation of Queen's song, Bohemian Rhapsody
She wouldn't accept this song because the ending of the song. This version was put out by somene who stole it. Now her finalesong from AGT champions lay out on you tube. Fantastic, and I love it even more than this one.👍
7:09 Google "light pollution" . Heh, it was an offputting comment, for me, a Norwegian, travelling nature my whole life... the mountains, fjords and rivers and valleys is where I feel at home. And the night sky miles away from even a single artificial light is something everyone should be able to see, it's truly magnificent.
I love the photographs in this video. I don't know who took them, but I suspect her Grandmother. I know that she is an artists and I think Angelina is her medium. Thank you for all your lovely reactions. I always learn something from you.
Baby Fuzz wrote this song & he sent it to several singers in hopes someone would record it. Angelina recorded this demo when she was 10, I believe, but her mom didn't like the suicide & God reference. They tried to get him to modify the lyrics, but he refused so they backed out. Somebody "leaked" the audio against the wishes of Angelina & her Mom, probably because it was so frickin amazing that they couldn't destroy such a work of musical art. A couple of years later Baby Fuzz recorded the "original" that is a decent cover of Angelina's original demo. Exact same arrangement!
Her team tried to block this one because of the suicidy lyrics at the end, especially since she found out what Gloomy Sunday is known for, but it keeps popping up because people love it. She seems drawn to powerful emotions.
I have said it before and I say it again: Angelina is a master painter. She paint with her voice. Do I need to say anything else....??? .......... ok...ok.. I admit it ... I am going to listen to one more video with Angelina singing....
Hi there . Love watching your reaction videos with Angelina Jordan . You should try to hear Song For A. There you will hear something completley diffrent 😍😍😍 try it ...think you will love it . 💖💖💖Greetings from Inge in Denmark 😎😎😎
One of my favorites, but she was conflicted by the lyrics near the end of the song, and the composer would not agree to a rewrite, so she refused it again...so I have to side with her and her parents regarding how appropriate these lyrics are for her..
Just like Still Racer says. I feel this is much better than the original. I really like her tone & voice & style in this song. I hope she writes a song like this one but more Godly or happy, but keeping the same tone & with her production co. & release it as a single. You just know it would go Platinum asap.
For a long time there were no reactions to Diana Ankudinova. Please react to new song from Diana Ankudinova. The title track of her first album. "Голосом Твоим" ("By your voice")
Hi.You say,that Angelina is a little girl.I think that is not correct.okay,usually you call a girl of her age little.but this"little girl" has a maturity that some adults do not have.she is looking for her songs to cover in her own style. she has already written a book about her experience with the little girl she gave her shoes to. with her help, millions of dollars have been raised and donated to a good cause.she writes the lyrics and arranges her own songs. she fascinates many people all over the world. no, she was never a little child
She recorded this with the original artist when she was 10! Her mother didn't like the reference to suicide and tried to get the artist to change the lyrics but unfortunately he wouldn't so this was never given permission for release, that's why there is no official video for this song,shame as it's my favourite of all her performances.
Yea, i just well nvm lol, for the two people in this thread i saw who think AJ is a Contralto see this link below, Anastasia Lee is a true Contralto, she did this at 19, she is i believe 23 now, but notice how the range is both natural and strong, if AJ (who is a Mezzo) tries to sing down here over a period of time she is going to run dry on breath and trail off into silence. That is not a critical comment, i am a long standing huge AJ fan, she is a Mezzo, not a Contralto. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-RDMPJUJXqL0.html Now We Are Free, Anastasia Lee, if the language here sounds elusive that is because Lisa Gerrard wrote this in what she claims is the language of angels, hey i just read it lol, the difference is obvious, Anya is a Contralto.
@@THEVOCALLEXICON "I'll go down to the river *Hold my head underwater* Pray to God He delivers Me from your ways *And even if I drown* *I'm gonna' hold it down* for you" The actual lyrics can easily be missed because she's singing it with such emphasis ... it hit's your soul without taking the detour via your brain.
@@THEVOCALLEXICON It's said to be because of the final phrases of the song when it`s about drowning yourself for love . I kind of don`t understand that she, her family and Baby Fuzz couldn`t find a solution here , that song is beautiful.
@@THEVOCALLEXICON The song is said to be about suicide and and they wouldn't change the lyrics for her. She and her family felt it was inappropriate for her age. So this demo is all we have.
Lol, this is not Contralto voice, AJ is not a Contralto, she is a dye in the wool Mezzo with a natural genetic stamp for injecting a ton of Soul into anything you hand her, she can go quite low and also wander into the Soprano range to some extent if she sees fit, but a Contralto?, no. Her voice is also going to change again, most likely soon, probably is already happening, i expect it will get richer and heavier with even more emphasis on the Mezzo, and because she works at power stance on regular occasion she will probably gain more there as well but not much, she may get a "little" more access to the low notes as she solidifies as a Mezzo, but i do not see her ever getting regular access to Contralto. Two younger examples of actual Contraltos are Diana Ankudinova and Anastasia Lee, if you listen to those two and then AJ again the difference is quite blunt, Ankudinova is actually not much older than AJ.
I dont know why she just doesnt rewrite the lyrics that she doesn't like.. wtf .. clearly a landmark performance, she's done nothing else like it.. shield is lame compared to this one.
