It's not "just" Angelina's voice that make her the greatest vocalist on the planet. She does have an amazing voice, but so do many other singers. Angelina has a combination of qualities that come together in a complete package. First is her "angelic" personality that leaves you no choice but to fall in love. Then you learn of her story and you fall deeper in love. Then of course you have her model worthy beauty to admire. Lets not forget her musical intelligence from years of dedicated study. Then she starts singing. Every note has a purpose. Every word helps to define the lyrics. Not too much vocal gymnastics. Just the right amount, in the right places. Thats where technique steps in and she is a master at vocal technique. Light and airy to powerful exclamations. From breath control, gorgeous runs, vocal frys and humming that perfectly extends a note without any use of energy. Then comes in her beautiful empathetic soul that grabs you by the heart string and makes you feel. Simply feel. I've heard folks say this singer or that has a prettier voice. Eh, maybe, but not one of them can bring Billie Holliday, Etta James, and Frank Sinatra back to life like AJ. Then turn around and sing Disco from Gloria Gaynor, slay James Brown like she was born in Motown. Side step and kill a dance song like "Above the Water". Drop so low in How Great Thou Art that the speaker reverberates, and I will say it, do an icon like Adele, better then Adele...live...one take...less then a day from hearing it. Then, and there is a ton more, make you wish you were her not so pretty or smart Valentine, if only for one day.
You guys should check out Angelina practicing with the band (same band as “I Put A Spell on You”) “Portrait of a Man”. Same as I Put A Spell on You, she does the Screaming Jay Hawkins version. She's amazing.
And to think I didn't even like this song that much until Angelina preformed it what a wonderful treat to be able to listen and enjoy this beautiful young lady I am just hooked on her .
She will take her place among the greats of jazz, Ella, Etta, Pearl, Billy, Dinah and others. Angelina is on that very top shelf. I'm 73 and I have been listening to big band, blues, and jazz since I was 3.
Dr. Jordan and Miss Astar! It's like a monster vocal trying to burst out and she has so much control, she keeps the beast at bay! She is the a "Beast" the "Goat" Is real, because "She is"
The child is simply a singing and musical prodigy. That is the only explanation for her voice and style. I am no expert in the singing world, I am simply a 74 year old woman who loves this young womans voice.
What is so extraordinary in this piece is how completely magnificent she sounds and even though we've been with her from the start, it is still shockingly exquisite. Loved your reaction. Do please please watch what she did with House of the Rising Sun. It was a tiktok but what she did with it is nothing less than gorgeous. You will love it.
You`r right Asia & BJ, this is Angelina giving us a taste of what to come for years and years years ahead. At least as it comes to jazz and jazzy songs. A rather tasty taste I will say 🤪
Did you know . . . My Funny Valentine was written in 1937 by Richard Rodgers and Lorenz Hart, for a Broadway musical called Babes in Arms. The song became a popular jazz standard, appearing on over 1300 albums performed by over 600 artists. One of the best of them all is by Eydie Gorme, from 1959. Eydie's magnificent voice shouldn't be missed, & her husband of over 50 years (until she died in 2013), Steve Lawrence had a voice just as great. Both had huge careers on their own, but together they created the magic that made them one of the most-acclaimed nightclub acts of the 20th century. Listen to them. You'll be glad you did. But now that you heard this version of My Funny Valentine, listen to Eydie do it. Nobody ever did it better!!
I love at then end when it builds up to the last crescendo, and you expect her to built, and then she shanges it up back to the light and airy voice, subverting your expectations. Keeps it interesting. So amazing.
Magic, simply magic. Angelina Jordan Astar is unlike any other vocalist in my 63 years and she just keeps improving. I am sure I have heard this performance around 100 times and it still blows me away. Angelina as a person, has inspired me, along with many others to try and do better and improve this world as best we can. Here in music reaction world on UA-cam, we have a great start making it a much better place and we invite you, Asia and BJ, to join. We have been successful suggesting to reaction channels to provide a link to the original video along with a link to the UA-cam channel for the artist (Angelina has both her Official and Cover Channels). We know very few people read the description, so we suggest verbally encouraging viewers to use the links provided. These simple steps should be done for each aspiring artist you feature. Dozens of reaction channels are proudly showing this love and support to the artists who bring such joy.
Thanks Andy, and also for your comment Lee. We find with so many reactors implementing these guidelines and prioritizing the artist, it is slowly becoming a standard of care. Asia and BJ, you guys are a couple of them more influential reactors on UA-cam and I hope you will set an example of the way it should be done.
@@CarlD70 you should never insult people on their channels. People react to music because they love music and want to share. If you do not like what people do 1. do not watch and 2 do not comment rudeness. You are not above anyone in this world or on youtube. You sound like a Karen.
May I please make a comment.. .Question:. In all of the songs that she sings, from a very early age to the present, does Angelina understand the songs that she sings...witness her singing "Summertime," for example. This is a very old and difficult song to sing and yet she sings it beautifully as well as her other songs like "Yellow Brick Road," "Suspicious Minds," etc. To answer the question. Yes, she does understand the songs that she sings which is why it sounds so very personal and so wonderful to listen to...(Frank Sinatra had this same singing quality that sounded like he was singing only to you)...She is a wonderful gift to the world....God bless Angelina !....
She has grown up right before our eyes, she's gone from this little girl to this beautiful young lady ,and her voice as BJ says the IT factor is there and now she seams to sound better with each song .enjoyed your reaction thanks
Angelina is just amazing. I am ready every single time, but even though I'm ready in every song she sings there is a moment or two or three where I get chills and goosebumps all over. Never fails. I can't get enough of her singing whether covers or originals, she is just one in a million. I just can't wait until she does live concerts so I can see her in person in the U.S.
Once Angelina releases her new album and becomes the superstar we all expect,then I hope she releases a covers album.Whatever she does I'm there for her with open wallet,never have I wished success more for any artist.You guys are awesome,I always love your reactions.
I've watched her grow with the two of you through your reactions. Her voice is timeless. My dearly departed parents would have loved her as this is a sound of the past. Her influence has me listening to more jazz singers of the forties and fifties. I can't wait for her album release. Thanks Asia and BJ for your Angelina reactions.
So in love with her. Have been watching and adored her for years and years. Watching her grow into such an incredible artist. Her voice is just magical. I have an entire angalina playlist ❤️❤️❤️ I can’t wait to see what she will mature in to. I’m the same I just always want more and more. I can’t get enough. Go back and watch her to bang bang from Norway’s got talent. Still one of my favorite songs. It’s hard to choose a a favorite but that is one of them.love n light to you both❤️☀️❤️☀️❤️☀️
I love this performance of a song I never really cared for before Angelina worked her magic on it. This was truly perfection. Asia, you looked stunning today. BJ is a lucky man to have you in his life.
In the Olympics, some sport performances are judged by complexity and perfection. Here, both are achieved at an exceptional level. However, she continues to raise the standard so we may still be amazed in the years to come.
Even though we have seen Angelina in 150 other songs, there is still this element of disbelief "is this real ? Can someone really sing like this ?". I am puzzled every single time, and this song makes me think that there is no way she will not conquer the world very soon....
Yes... Please, Please... react to her singing "What a Difference a Day Makes" she was 8 years old! You would think it was Dinah Washington singing! .. I really enjoy the two of you working together on the reactions and Asia you are very pretty.
Angelina shows her vocal and artistic evolution clearly in this song. Training guided by Republic Records and its team guarantees security to evolve in the highest notes, where it already shows great evolution, with power and clean voice. Angelina incessantly seeks to be better today than she was yesterday, but with so much talent and dedication... where will she go? I believe it will please everyone with beautiful perfection.
Just beautiful, simply beautiful! And as you said Asia, you can hear the maturity in her voice. Her future is oh so bright! I'd love for ya'll to react to I Can Understand It by New Birth. It's a song we partied hard to back in the 70's. I really think you'll enjoy the vibe!🎶🎵 Thanks!
We haven't heard your reaction to her latest covers. But she's just released a new original song from her upcoming album. Please react to Love Don't Let Me Go just released May 5th.
I’ve been waiting for you to react to her two recent covers “Mercy” and “House of the Rising Sun”. Her cover of Mercy is the official opening soundtrack for a new movie called The Hating Game and she does Duffy proud! AJ plays her own guitar for The House of the Rising Sun and does a very credible job of it and, of course her vocals are terrific. All the best!
She incorporates, with her own personal style of singing jazz, the breathy, sensual releases by Billie Holiday, then goes all the way over to the furthest opposite end of the jazz spectrum, where Amy Winehouse resided as the most uniquely different jazz singer of all time, and brings into the song 'raw' inflections like 'slurring' words for effect, and radical 'key' changes withing specific lines of the song which was another hallmark of Amy's style of jazz. This intricate, complex form of weaving all three artists into a tapestry, that no individual singer has ever done, is what we get here. Add in the visuals that center on her 'Persian Princess' eyes and we are totally mesmerized. When 'Alexander The Great' conquered the known world he took as his bride a Persian Princess named Roxanne who was the daughter of the Persian King he just defeated. Had Alexander been able to hear Angelina's angelic vocals, and taken in the full beauty before him , there's no way Roxanne would not have been replaced by Angelina as his Queen.
Your mentioning of Amy Winehouse was exactly what I thought at the start but I think, now, that she's definitely a long overdue replacement for Peggy Lee, especially as her voice naturally deepens.
@@rayjennings3637 Would love for someone to interview her grandmother Mery Zamani which is , of course, where Angelina became indoctrinated by the greats of yesteryear. She must have cataloged an unbelievable amount of vocal memories from artists too numerous to mention and then whenever the urge arises in her, out comes a specific artist's nuance and/or inflections. Her being a natural 'vocal chameleon' does help, as well.
It would have been nice to provide a link to Angelina’s original post on Instagram. Unfortunately it’s been removed and I’m not sure if the UA-cam copies should remain. One possibility is that they intend to make a commercial release of it.
@@stevenhambek846 Well it’s unlikely that AJ got a copyright takedown for her own performance. So they’re implying that it has other uses, maybe on Patreon only or as a single or an album track. Fingers crossed for the July concerts as well.
Thanks for go back to Angelina with this wonderful reaction, Asia & BJ. I love Angelina's covers. Not that calling them covers makes much sense, given how she manages to overturn and innovate in an unpredictable way everything she plays. I hope she never ceases to amaze us, because she is absolutely out of the ordinary and capable of empathizing like no one else. They are truly 16 years overflowing with unique talent and a fantastic jazz! You should also look at his latest posts on TikTok (or Instagram), in recent months she has posted small parts of different interpretations, they are almost all sung a cappella in front of the phone and are great songs by Duffy, LP, Adele, Drake, Richie, Smith , Sting, Styles, Animals, and they are all absolutely fantastic, for the passion and naturalness that she manages to convey with her raw voice.💛 🧡 ❤️
Hard to believe, but she just keeps getting better and better! I also hope you will consider taking the suggestions about stepping up your support of up and coming artists. Not just Angelina, but others as well. Your channel has grown significantly since I first started watching, and that is a testament to your hard work. Now you can really have a positive impact on these artists, by encouraging your viewers to go to the artists channels to like and subscribe thereby helping their algorithm. In return, your viewers will be more likely to subscribe to your channel as well. So it's a win-win! Anyway, thanks for another great reaction!
Great reaction as always, so thank you guys for that. By now we all know how amazingly gifted she is, so I was going to comment on something different. I wish that the up and coming coming artist, as well as many of the current superstars would go back to what Angelina has always done, and that is focus on the music. Angelina doesn't need a big production, does need to sell how she looks or have people bouncing around i skimpy clothing. Her videos are minimalistic by design. When Angelina sings, it is all about the music. If there is a video, its only there to help tell a story. She is just total class, an incredible Musician, absolutely timeless in her sound, incredibly creative in her arrangements and her gift is undeniably beautiful. I dont know how popular she will be. She has never been someone to follow main stream, to gain popularity. She doesn't have to. All she needs is somewhere to put a microphone and start singing. Actually she doesn't even need the microphone (LOL)) Once she does, you are hooked, and she just takes control of your sole. To me she is the youngest old school singer that I have ever heard. I always feel like she was born 75 years to late. Back then music was still about musicality. Something that since has long been lost. Maybe she can help keep those olden days alive, maybe not, either way she will go down as one of the most amazing singers to ever perform, because a gift like hers cant be held back, no matter what the music industry feels. is or isn't star quality.
Angelina doesn’t copy anybody she sings, rearranges the song and puts her own spin on it. She has 1000 voices and makes each one UNIQUE to her. She will be huge this year…wait, watch and marvel!
Ustedes son de mis favoritos, pero ¿No creen que han dejado demasiado tiempo de reaccionar a Angelina? Ella está publicando verdaderas joyas en TikTok. No la olviden, Angelina es demasiado buena para que se pierdan lo que está haciendo. Espero verlos reaccionar más a menudo. Saludos.
Thank U Guys!!! Asia & BJ... Super Great U are Here with this Lovely Elegant Timeless Song... All Vey Special Here!!! Very Kind Hosting / Fun to See U Two As Well. Thank U Ms. AJ - Astar Family... DD.
We never tire of listening to sweet, sweet Angelina.. such A beautiful soul !...
Perfect example of what she's really capable of when she stays within her range. Beautiful!
She is an original with her voice and choice of music.
Angelina doing classic jazz - it just doesn't get any better.😎

Our little angel is growing up....What to say about this cover...Nothing less than phenomenal...as simple as that...
You guys should check out Angelina practicing with the band (same band as “I Put A Spell on You”) “Portrait of a Man”. Same as I Put A Spell on You, she does the Screaming Jay Hawkins version. She's amazing.
As usual Angelina is amazing, and no one better on the planet
A perfect song for a romantic night in with your fav. I hope this is a part of a new album. Thank you all for your reactions.
And to think I didn't even like this song that much until Angelina preformed it what a wonderful treat to be able to listen and enjoy this beautiful young lady I am just hooked on her .
pure magic ... thanks A & J .sdos Argentina
Just love her voice. Agt lost out. She is amazing
She will take her place among the greats of jazz, Ella, Etta, Pearl, Billy, Dinah and others. Angelina is on that very top shelf. I'm 73 and I have been listening to big band, blues, and jazz since I was 3.
And they were all preceded by Billie Holiday, it’s quite an Ensemble
@@blackprix I spelled Billie's name wrong
What a voice. She is PHENOMENAL!
Magic.....magic. Any time when you think this is it, this the best Angelina can do, then she comes up with another surprise! Angelina is a God gift!
Angelina said that she will be releasing her Republic Records debut album this year.
Dr. Jordan and Miss Astar! It's like a monster vocal trying to burst out and she has so much control, she keeps the beast at bay! She is the a "Beast" the "Goat" Is real, because "She is"

This is just fabulous! She just keeps getting better and it’s amazing every time!✌️😊💜

Just perfect ❤ Got goosebumps all over ❤ what a voice... the control, the soulful voice, the runs, everything is Just perfect ❤
Everyday is Valentine's since I found her some years ago. A perfect Song for an Angel 💖💗💝
Guys a an you react to Angelina Jordans cover of What a difference a day make when she was 8 years old. Thanks
Yes... Please, Please... react to her singing "What a Difference a Day Makes" she was 8 years old! You would think it was Dinah Washington singing! .. I really enjoy the two of you working together on the reactions and Asia you are very pretty.
This was beautifully done and I loved it, Damn just left me speechless
AJ the Angel 😇 Loved your reactions ♥
Every note is crafted art.
You will love her cover of It's a Mans world. (Live at Kongsberg Jazzfestival)
Beautiful

Simply, nobody has done it better.
This is pure magic! The best version I have ever heard! Her voice is beyond beautiful!🌟❤️
IMO, this song couldn’t be sung any better, except by Angelina, of course.
She is the reincarnation of all the great female jazz artists of the 50's and 60's.
We haven't heard your reaction to her latest covers. But she's just released a new original song from her upcoming album. Please react to Love Don't Let Me Go just released May 5th.
With Angelina and I hope other take after, then the future will not be a bad place to live in.
❤❤❤
I’ve been waiting for you to react to her two recent covers “Mercy” and “House of the Rising Sun”. Her cover of Mercy is the official opening soundtrack for a new movie called The Hating Game and she does Duffy proud! AJ plays her own guitar for The House of the Rising Sun and does a very credible job of it and, of course her vocals are terrific. All the best!
Great reaction to the song domination Queen, God Bless!
Your beautiful Asia 🥰
Beautiful.. She's still in school. Watch out when she's done. We all love her music.
You are right: what a treat! 🤗 a never ending treat....
She incorporates, with her own personal style of singing jazz, the breathy, sensual
releases by Billie Holiday, then goes all the way over to the furthest opposite end
of the jazz spectrum, where Amy Winehouse resided as the most uniquely different

Angelina became indoctrinated by the greats of yesteryear.
She must have cataloged an unbelievable amount of vocal
memories from artists too numerous to mention and then
whenever the urge arises in her, out comes a specific artist's
nuance and/or inflections. Her being a natural 'vocal chameleon'
does help, as well.
Thanks.
she is best when she is close to Billie Holiday's style ...she thrives in that space

@@pa1189j I want to thank you for your energetic support and ❤️ for our Norwegian princess
Y’all might enjoy hearing her sing this in another video also. I think she was 10 in that one, sitting in a chair at home.
Thanks for go back to Angelina with this wonderful reaction, Asia & BJ. I love Angelina's covers. Not that calling them covers makes much sense, given how she manages to overturn and innovate in an unpredictable way everything she plays. I hope she never ceases to amaze us, because she is absolutely out of the ordinary and capable of empathizing like no one else.

Great reaction y’all, When it’s this great, the lack of adjectives, physical reactions speaks volumes...
Angelina continues to deepen her core as she broadens her horizon. Way to go Angie!!
Hard to believe, but she just keeps getting better and better! I also hope you will consider taking the suggestions about stepping up your support of up and coming artists. Not just Angelina, but others as well. Your channel has grown significantly since I first started watching, and that is a testament to your hard work. Now you can really have a positive impact on these artists, by encouraging your viewers to go to the artists channels to like and subscribe thereby helping their algorithm. In return, your viewers will be more likely to subscribe to your channel as well. So it's a win-win! Anyway, thanks for another great reaction!
Great reaction as always, so thank you guys for that. By now we all know how amazingly gifted she is, so I was going to comment on something different.
I wish that the up and coming coming artist, as well as many of the current superstars would go back to what Angelina has always done, and that is focus on the music. Angelina doesn't need a big production, does need to sell how she looks or have people bouncing around i skimpy clothing. Her videos are minimalistic by design. When Angelina sings, it is all about the music. If there is a video, its only there to help tell a story. She is just total class, an incredible Musician, absolutely timeless in her sound, incredibly creative in her arrangements and her gift is undeniably beautiful. I dont know how popular she will be. She has never been someone to follow main stream, to gain popularity. She doesn't have to. All she needs is somewhere to put a microphone and start singing. Actually she doesn't even need the microphone (LOL)) Once she does, you are hooked, and she just takes control of your sole. To me she is the youngest old school singer that I have ever heard. I always feel like she was born 75 years to late. Back then music was still about musicality. Something that since has long been lost. Maybe she can help keep those olden days alive, maybe not, either way she will go down as one of the most amazing singers to ever perform, because a gift like hers cant be held back, no matter what the music industry feels. is or isn't star quality.
me me ...Very well said!
Angelina doesn’t copy anybody she sings, rearranges the song and puts her own spin on it. She has 1000 voices and makes each one UNIQUE to her.
She will be huge this year…wait, watch and marvel!
Had to join you two since you love who I love

Ustedes son de mis favoritos, pero ¿No creen que han dejado demasiado tiempo de reaccionar a Angelina? Ella está publicando verdaderas joyas en TikTok. No la olviden, Angelina es demasiado buena para que se pierdan lo que está haciendo. Espero verlos reaccionar más a menudo. Saludos.
Love the voice
A voice not FOR the ages....a voice OF the ages...wow.
A class above the most classiest version ever recorded!
