love Angelina's voice . .i normally don't like young kids singing .. but she is an exception .. thank you for this reaction Brip Pops .. made my day ..
I hope you realize she has 8 original songs! I believe you meant first original song with Republic records? I would be happy to list and explain each one. 🌺🌺
Written, by Angelina about her grandpa . All songs are written by someone who is sharing their soul or a piece of themselves about something affecting them. AJ has the ability to feel that in every song she sings and more important she makes use feel it too. To many singers it’s just words. She thinks them thru and comes to a conclusion about what they are about. With California Dreaming , she listened to the message and changed the whole thing. Will always be my choice. Such a great director too at such a young age. Love her. Pray God blesses her always and protects her. We’ve lost too too many young wonderful talents way too early.
Angelina losing her grandpa passed away she could see me or tears she know he’s not far away he’s always in my spirit I can’t see you but I know you’re there it’s sad but with hope always connected to the ones we lost
Bangin all the way ! You guys are the very best ! The most important , influential and supportive reactors for Angelina Jordan on You Tube bar none ! With you guys in her corner she will eventually get to the top of the mountain I have no doubt ! You have got on board and are enjoying this magnificent young singer's journey ! It is a journey of love , joy and happiness ! Angelina is in your heart and soul and it is so much appreciated to see the sincere love and admiration you have for our barefoot princess ! Thank you and keep posting ! 👍🤗🇨🇦🇨🇦❤️❤️
Love Million Miles, it is sad, but also hopeful, cried a lot to this song 😭❤ Thinking of Angelinas loss and my own losses... The final belt felt like a primal scream reaching her grandpa wherever he is ❤
The way this song ends it really makes it seem like , oh no it's too short , I want more but what it does is it makes you think, it makes you feel... you are now in a quiet calm place
Ive heard this song many times now....and it really grows on you...its a sleeper...its a real standard...this could be number one on the charts...easily.......its just that she doesnt have that huge exposure yet..Maybe we need to be a little patient.....i keep forgetting her age.......wonderful...thanks again
Gentlemen, thank you both for your kind words and for realizing right away the sadness Angelina had to face at a very young age. She wrote this song not just for herself but for all who have lost family and friends during this widespread epidemic throughout the world! Without a doubt, Angelina is a very special Angel with a message of healing from her heart.
1,000,000 miles I bet her grandfather passing away to send some with HopeI see you my tears I know I can’t see you but I know you’re here you’re in my heart that my father I am never alone he says on but we hope you will connect to the love one you lose Nice have a spiritual connection know that we can’t see each other so I’m never alone but I still see in my tears I miss you
An incredible original song. Piano, cello, and her voice. And she really puts the cry into the song, and yet, it is full of comfort and hope. Again, compassion. Also, not her first original song. I wept the first several times of listening to this. 💜
Sing/songwriter Dakota was in the studio with stargate when they made the song. Dakota wrote on her instagram "this girls talent is freakin'' insane. She's rigth Angelinas talent is insane.
Wonderful reaction to a song we angels wish the whole world could hear. "Million Miles" is without a doubt the most impactful song of my 63 years. I had lost 5 loved ones in the previous 4 years, and had not allowed myself to properly grieve. Angelina came into my life at just the right time as did this song. I am in such a better place, emotionally.
Listen close and that harmonic effect is all her vocals that only she is doing! She has created her own harmonic effect! That's what no one is talking about and I'm waiting to see if anyone attempts it. She changed the harmonic pitch on the "Never alone" second verse run.
here is a direct quote from one of the stargate producers " there are only a few people in the world who can take a song from top to bottom in one take. you have beyonce , sam smith and angelina jordan " aj was sitting @ 5 ft away in studio. aj worked with these guys when she was @ 10 possibly on shield , maybe oslo...
Angelina is an all around sure bet. Her drive and determination toward achieving her goals is admirable, and her musicality is very impressive. Her future looks bright - and lucky are we.
Such an emotional song, the fact that she wrote this after her granddad passed makes it hit even harder...I'll admit that she makes me tear up whenever I hear her sing this one and I listen to it alot
Hi BV. Actually Angie 1st song she wrote that she has sung in public, is "Oslo". She started to write it a 10 flying home from LA. Than "What's Life" than Shield" than "Million Miles" then "7th Heaven". But she was already composing & recomposing before that.
Angelina has done earlier originals .. Yes, lets help this beaautyfull soul and singer all we can ! (U r doing reactions to my two favorite ones, unik in each their styles, the other one being Dimash ... those two in a studio together and the world of music would change forever!)
Million MIles is not Angelina's First Original Song - it is just the first one she did with Republic Records. Here are other songs she has written and also recorded: Oslo (11) ua-cam.com/video/uxF-KiiSVoA/v-deo.html What is Life? (12) ua-cam.com/video/Bv0r77KN7RA/v-deo.html Shield (12) ua-cam.com/video/lQtUbVKb0vs/v-deo.html 7th Heaven (15) ua-cam.com/video/9rLiWvwzbCA/v-deo.html
This song initially shows her missing her grandfather and the pain of that and then gives her grandfather the best seat in the house, where else once he's
U guys should go to her consert in Sandefjord (close to Oslo) the 10th of July. A garden party consert - max 2.000 people. Oslo is 2 hours from London. Sandefjord is also a beautiful city to visit. No seating and the price is around 50 pounds.
I must have listened to this track 50 or more times guys and every time it rips feeling out of me, so poweful, so genuine. The first few time listening I had tears rolling down my face and I don't mind admitting it. I'm a huge fan of this amazing teenager (now 16) and wish her all the success she desires. Please keep reacting and promoting these super talented young vocalists.
Great reaction, as always ! I feel like I am sitting in the same room as the 2 of you.... PS: Keep in mind, that Angelina has more original songs, have a look at them :-)
Hi guys, beautiful song /voice /video that we always get from AJ. It’s absolutely amazing that a young lady could write such a heartfelt song. There is just no end to her talent, another brilliant upload 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I have been waiting for you gentlemen to react to this particular song for ages! Thank you! Every time I listen to this song - and I h've heard it hundreds of times - I always get a catch in my throat. Every time. These is something about this song, that gets you...And the reference to Adele? Her song was called A Million Years Ago..and Angelina has covered it. I'd like to hear your reaction to that. A couple of phrases are common to both songs, I thunk..Look forwrd to you next one!
Wouldn't it be something else if Adele asked Angelina if she could do a cover of this song? I think you're onto something here. It would go to the top of charts like you said. But Angelina will in time get there on her own I'm sure. Ron from California USA
Wonderful reaction & comments to 14 yo Angie. Actually Angie 1st song she wrote that she has sung in public, is "Oslo". She started to write it at 10 flying home from LA. Than "What's Life" at 11 than, Shield" also at 11 than, "Million Miles" at 13 & 14, then "7th Heaven" at 14 & 15. But she was already composing & recomposing before that. She started writing this song shortly after her 2nd grandpa died in Nov. 2019, during the filming of the finals or semi finals (or just right after) of AGT-C, she was 13. Angie started to write this shortly after his death & recorded it in 2020 at 14, ( her 1st grandpa died in 2018 & she did a dedication song for him too). Republic Records Co-Founder and C.E.O. Monte Lipman heard her singing this song & personally chased her down to sign her to the label for he wanted to sign her ASAP, & they did finally at the end on Aug. 2020. Angie did some & her grandma Mery did most of the art for the (official lyric video) which is great & in her (Official Music Video) Angie said this: In People Magazine article (2-4-21) Angelina said, “I love being creative, and I actually sketched the scenes of the music video, which is really cool. The scenes are about memories I had, and going back to flashbacks. I think that the simplicity of the music video makes it really beautiful because it lets the music talk instead”. So it’s very personal, and it’s truly a well thought out work of art. Wouldn’t you agree fans. All 3 are different version of the same song. So if you react to the others you'll see/hear that. (Angie never sings a song the same way twice, so you could say they’ll all be 1st time reactions.) Angie sings like an instrumentalist, combined with narrative music. Another reason she’s so especially rare, great & special.😄
Thanks a lot guys :-) It's really warming my heart to hear what you're saying about Angelina. It seems you've landed permanently. At least until Angelina takes off. Just make sure to bring enough food, because our Angel is gonna soar HIGH, and she won't land again in several decades. LOL Come join me on her concert here in Norway on July 10th ? I believe tickets are still available. Go to KURBADHAGEN and have a look :-) Take care guys! Love from your Norwegian freind :-)
Very nice reaction and comments BP's. Just a beautifully written and beautifully sung song by this young lady. She has a big heart and it shows very much through this original song written by a 13-14 year old girl. It still gets to me every time I listen to this, remembering lost loved ones but it is more of a heeling song to me. Angelina has made a huge difference in my life since I discovered this wonderful human being and I am grateful for that. Thank you for supporting Angelina on your channel, always a pleasure watching and listening to the two of you.
This isn't her first original. Others would be: Oslo (11) - ua-cam.com/video/R2HkKh_Cp8I/v-deo.html What Is Life (12) - ua-cam.com/video/Bv0r77KN7RA/v-deo.html Shield (12) - ua-cam.com/video/lQtUbVKb0vs/v-deo.html And, of course, she published her book at age 9, based on her diary entries made at age 6. She has been fully aware of her privilege and resources which allow her to take on her mission. She acknowledges not only her experiences but also her support throughout the years and has felt an obligation to make it count. You will hear her appreciation in her original songs. Even the earliest ones.
Angelina is the greatest singer in the world 🌎 as far as I’m concerned she’s not Adele or anyone else she’s simply Angelina Yes this was written about Angelina’s grandpa they were very close but she did say it’s also for anyone who lost a loved one she said on Instagram when it first came out I hope this song finds a place in your heart as it comes straight from mine she’s always thinking about other people as well and she’s such a caring human being there’s no one like her her own original songs are What is Life / Oslo/ Shield / Million Miles and 7th Heaven Republic Records told Angelina that she a one take wonder and that she’s the one there really concentrating on at the moment Angelina and her Uncle Michael who is her manger got a really good deal with Republic they have given her the freedom to do other things so that suited everyone Love from Denise in Yorkshire England 🏴👼👸🏻💞💞💞👋
Nice reaction guys! In regards to Stargate, they are a multi-award winning record producers and songwriters. They have produced or written for Michael Jackson, Mariah Carey, Lionel Richie, Wiz Khalifa, Britney Spears, Beyoncé, Rihanna, Selena Gomez, Rita Ora, Normani, Mis-Teeq, Celine Dion, Blue, Janet Jackson, Shakira, Jennifer Lopez, Sam Smith, Mary J. Blige, Ne-Yo, Katy Perry, Coldplay, Pink, Sia, Whitney Houston, Nas, Chris Brown, Khalid, Charli XCX, Trey Songz and others. In a short video, one of the members of Stargate was recorded talking to Angelina and telling her that they have worked with many artists and they only know of 3 singers that can sing a song well from beginning to end in one take...Beyonce, Sam Smith, and Angelina! Talk about high praise! What a talent!
Great reaction once again from my favorite britpop duo. 👍 You pretty much said all there is to say about this song from. Angelina Jordan. Two-ish points I'd like to add. This is actually a live performance and not the studio recording she did whit Stargate. They did produce the song however, so they probably gave Angekina a few pointers on the arrangement. Still we know that Angelina has done arrengments of songs since she was 8 or 9 yo. Stargate did mention however, that they had worked whit 3 singers ever, to deliver perfect vocal tracks in the studio, in one take. Namely Beoncey Knowles, Sam Smith and Angelina Jordan. 3 fairly good singers there I would say.
Very beautiful reaction guys, this song for me is truly an identity card of Angelina, not only for her incredible vocal talent and of songwriter, but above all as a sensitive, highly ethical and emotional person. Needless to say but every time I hear this song I cry again, she really has a connection with people's tear glands. 💛 🧡 ❤️
I'm a lot more impressed by this than I am with her covers (which isn't a criticism at all, just in case I get flamed by her followers). I've always said she has a fantastic voice and is super talented, but her songwriting skill is superb. To be able to grasp your emotions with just lyrics themselves is a talent. Add in her heartfelt performance, and you have a winner. I completely agree. If you had a well established artist release this, it would top the charts. She'll definitely get there, and deservedly so. But what's this?? We Brits don't have emotions! We have stiff upper lips! 😆 I dare you to check out James Blunt's 'Monsters'. Your stiff upper lip might have a wobble...
Have to listen to this again and again years later.brilliant guys.seen her live in Norway doing this was so amazing hits you right in the heart and at coronavirus time it was realeased so effected a lot of People Who could react to this!❤❤
Remember when Angelina sings "Gloomy Sunday" at age 7 and her mother wipes her tears behind the scenes, because she realized she had to leave Angelina to humanity, or something similar. I think that we Angelina fans too will soon have to mourn to see our princess taken away to be delivered to everyone.
Bangin' reaction, thanks! (I agree the cello is the perfect choice for conveying sorrow and melancholy. A piccolo flute or banjo just wouldn't cut it). ;-)
This is the second and only live video of this song. The first one has the words over hand painted art by her and her grandmother. The third is a story video with her reading this as her younger sister Juliet plays her and her uncle/ manager plays her Grandpa
This was the GREAT ❤mender of 2020. It came like heaven sent in the darkest period of my life, and helped me purge through the💔, sorrow and traumas up till 2020. This video is good, but personally and a bit odd to say, I like the lyrics video better. Good to see some emotions there BP1, as the song got along 😉 Excelent reaction, thank you❣
What a great review guys Thank you. I got info I did not know, and I love that. Keep it up. Bless and be well. Oh, and to my mined and ear, She is top of the chart, and in fact I think she has set the bar for Any of her contemporaries A Million Miles above the industries current standers.
Gents, FYI StarGate are Norwegians and friends of Angelina for many years. They did the right thing to show Mr.Lipman what their young friend Angelina could do. You and your families stay safe and sound in this troubled times. German greetings.
Great reaction as usual, gents! Angelina's voice is healing. It's helped through many a dark night of the soul. I recently discovered a fun cover she did of Amy Winehouse's song Rehab, recorded live at a jazz festival when she was 12, with humorous age-appropriate lyric changes by Angelina. Here's the link for your consideration: ua-cam.com/video/MJnGNtYm24c/v-deo.html
With an artist as good as AJ "Hands off" is best. Let her do her thing and the money will flow from this golden goose. If Republic try to stere her it will back fire.
It's the first performance she did with the team at Republic Records. The head of the LA studio has been working with her ever since . And she's a very competent singer as we know. Would have been a strange anomaly if the result wasnt very professional. The interesting thing with RR is that they seem to be willing to play the long game with her. Which is quite unusual these days.
After this song she dropped another original with Republic called 7th HEAVEN. a jazzy song with some positive messages. Very different from this and quite fun. I can say the same about SHIELD .. another of her originals, that was written when she was 12, I believe. The words in SHIELD are profound and really show a private side of Angelina. I think of it as a prayer and love it. She is amazingly talented and a great writer. Her other two originals are WHAT IS LIFE? which was her 1st, and OSLO, about the city she was born at. YOU GUYS ARE GREAT .. I LOVE WATCHING YOU AND TRULY APPRECIATE YOU BOTH.
Here is the original BP reacting to No 1&2 :-) You just feel her pain and sadness in this song making it very personal. It is a sad and comforting song for losing a lost one. Not all tears are bad and finding relief and release is healing. If you wish a James Bond kind of song. She covered 'Diamonds are forever' ua-cam.com/video/9RGZRg9YH3k/v-deo.html. More interestingly might be her original Shield which has a James Bond vibe to it and inspired by Shirley Basey: ua-cam.com/video/lQtUbVKb0vs/v-deo.html
Always love your reactions and look forward to every video! Thanks for your continued support of Angelina and providing the original video link. May I ask that you also include on your videos the link to her official Channel? Thanks. ANGELINA JORDAN OFFICIAL CHANNEL ua-cam.com/users/AngelinaJordanOfficial Also social media links are helpful such as Facebook, instagram, and tik tok
Can anyone explain how this song/performance is not an enormous hit in America and or all over the world for that matter. I guess it's because Adele did not record it---too bad Angelina--this is a tremendous song---- congratulations and you alone should know how beautiful it is.
You most find the take on UA-cam where Angelina Jorden sings the song "Mary's boy child" at the age of 10 -11 years old. That is realy stunning! She can realy tel a story with amotions and filing!
Would have this song received more attention had it not been released in the middle of a pandemic,it's a song about someone's passing,was it the right time?
Other told Angela when he passed away can be on the moon watching out for and he said, don’t worry watch you do everything will be fine. Those of the line that she just
What an emotional song. She's singing from her heart. Ty Angelina ... I Luv that song. I'm sure Many Love it. Bless U 🙏♥️♥️
Hi to U Guys.💙💙
Angelina Jordan has done diamonds forever!!
are your friends the stars this songs for you wherever you are...so beautiful and powerful
Very good and appreciated reaction.
after 8 years of listening ,,,,,180 plus songs and covers,,,,,,,thousands of reactions and most likely millions of comments,,,,,,,i can see something special,,,,,,,,,,comments to her performances are the most creative writings i ve seen ,,,,,,using just those comments you could write the most interesting book about a young girls ,her emotions,visions and kindness,,,,,,,,,,yes she changes not just the music world but us peoplpe,,,,
love Angelina's voice . .i normally don't like young kids singing .. but she is an exception .. thank you for this reaction Brip Pops .. made my day ..
I hope you realize she has 8 original songs! I believe you meant first original song with Republic records? I would be happy to list and explain each one. 🌺🌺
no need for big productions just a piano and her voice is enough to fill a whole stadium or arena
Written, by Angelina about her grandpa . All songs are written by someone who is sharing their soul or a piece of themselves about something affecting them. AJ has the ability to feel that in every song she sings and more important she makes use feel it too. To many singers it’s just words. She thinks them thru and comes to a conclusion about what they are about. With California Dreaming , she listened to the message and changed the whole thing. Will always be my choice. Such a great director too at such a young age. Love her. Pray God blesses her always and protects her. We’ve lost too too many young wonderful talents way too early.
Angelina losing her grandpa passed away she could see me or tears she know he’s not far away he’s always in my spirit I can’t see you but I know you’re there it’s sad but with hope always connected to the ones we lost
Beautiful
You should watch the lyric video of this song, showing animated Angelina climbing a ladder to the moon to see her late grandpa 😥
Bangin all the way ! You guys are the very best ! The most important , influential and supportive reactors for Angelina Jordan on You Tube bar none ! With you guys in her corner she will eventually get to the top of the mountain I have no doubt ! You have got on board and are enjoying this magnificent young singer's journey !

The piano player is the head of LA Republic Records studio, she expects to have an album out this year she said at her Christmas Concert
Love Million Miles, it is sad, but also hopeful, cried a lot to this song 😭❤ Thinking of Angelinas loss and my own losses... The final belt felt like a primal scream reaching her grandpa wherever he is ❤

Destined to be an all time classic in time. Such a beautiful song.
It's so impressive. Right out masterful. 😊 Very enjoyable and suitable reaction. 😊
Gentlemen, thank you both for your kind words and for realizing right away the sadness Angelina had to face at a very young age. She wrote this song not just for herself but for all who have lost family and friends during this widespread epidemic throughout the world!

Wonderful reaction to a song we angels wish the whole world could hear. "Million Miles" is without a doubt the most impactful song of my 63 years. I had lost 5 loved ones in the previous 4 years, and had not allowed myself to properly grieve. Angelina came into my life at just the right time as did this song. I am in such a better place, emotionally.
Always great to see Angelina perform but the music video to this song, 😭. So moving. Beautiful tribute to her grandfather. 👍🙂👍
Right before this came out was the start of COVID, and Angelina dedicated the song to everyone who had ever lost a loved one.
Nice reaction guys. The StarGate studios was started in Norway and is driven by two norwegians. Top producers.
She said she was often in tears developing this performance. Heartfelt indeed.
Listen close and that harmonic effect is all her vocals that only she is doing! She has created her own harmonic effect! That's what no one is talking about and I'm waiting to see if anyone attempts it. She changed the harmonic pitch on the "Never alone" second verse run.
(Angel in a) bad world... she is beyond understanding! Im just blessed to listen to her! :D (I kindoff like her if that was not clear!)
She is best in monochrome cause her voice is a million colours! Dont want a sensory overload!
Heartfelt emotional tribute to her late grandfather, and to anyone who has ever lost a loved one. Direct from her beautiful soul to ours❤️😄
Angelina is a great artist and a talented girl.Thank you friends.Great reaction!👏👏👏💯🇷🇺
Great reaction to a Master Piece entirely, God Bless!
here is a direct quote from one of the stargate producers " there are only a few people in the world who can take a song from top to bottom in one take. you have beyonce , sam smith and angelina jordan " aj was sitting @ 5 ft away in studio. aj worked with these guys when she was @ 10 possibly on shield , maybe oslo...
They worked with her on the “leaked” video Holding Out For You and Shield. TRX did the dance video
Simple is Angelina's style - simple arrangements, simple voice performance. Simple is 'Classy', mature, and timeless.
Angelina is an all around sure bet. Her drive and determination toward achieving her goals is admirable, and her musicality is very impressive. Her future looks bright - and lucky are we.
Such an emotional song, the fact that she wrote this after her granddad passed makes it hit even harder...I'll admit that she makes me tear up whenever I hear her sing this one and I listen to it alot
Angelina wrote her first original 'What Is Life' and recorded it on her 'It's Magic' cd , when she was 11.
Hi BV. Actually Angie 1st song she wrote that she has sung in public, is "Oslo". She started to write it a 10 flying home from LA. Than "What's Life" than Shield" than "Million Miles" then "7th Heaven". But she was already composing & recomposing before that.
Everything Angelina does is Magic
beautiful reaction for a beautiful song 😊 grazie mille from Italy 🇮🇹🤗👣
lovely reaction to a heart-rending song
Angelina has done earlier originals .. Yes, lets help this beaautyfull soul and singer all we can ! (U r doing reactions to my two favorite ones, unik in each their styles, the other one being Dimash ... those two in a studio together and the world of music would change forever!)
Million MIles is not Angelina's First Original Song - it is just the first one she did with Republic Records. Here are other songs she has written and also recorded:
Oslo (11) ua-cam.com/video/uxF-KiiSVoA/v-deo.html
What is Life? (12) ua-cam.com/video/Bv0r77KN7RA/v-deo.html

Angelina Wrote this in order for grandpa he passed away he sad it with hope
Because love are with us in spirit (Heart)
Great reaction, as always ! I feel like I am sitting in the same room as the 2 of you.... PS: Keep in mind, that Angelina has more original songs, have a look at them :-)
Hi guys, beautiful song /voice /video that we always get from AJ. It’s absolutely amazing that a young lady could write such a heartfelt song. There is just no end to her talent, another brilliant upload 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
She really is a little (getting bigger) phenom!!
I have been waiting for you gentlemen to react to this particular song for ages! Thank you! Every time I listen to this song - and I h've heard it hundreds of times - I always get a catch in my throat. Every time. These is something about this song, that gets you...And the reference to Adele? Her song was called A Million Years Ago..and Angelina has covered it. I'd like to hear your reaction to that. A couple of phrases are common to both songs, I thunk..Look forwrd to you next one!
Wouldn't it be something else if Adele asked Angelina if she could do a cover of this song? I think you're onto something here. It would go to the top of charts like you said. But Angelina will in time get there on her own I'm sure.

This song should be shared with everyone who has lost loved ones.
The Barefoot Angel celebrated her 16th birthday on Jan 10, 2022.
Loved the reaction to our Barefoot Princess! ♥👣👸🏻🎷
It was her first original with Republic Records but she already wrote a 3 originals before « What Is life » , « Shield » and « Oslo ».
All her originals is very beautiful and also so different I feel. I like them all but somehow Oslo just gets to my heart.

(Angie never sings a song the same way twice, so you could say they’ll all be 1st time reactions.) Angie sings like an instrumentalist, combined with narrative music. Another reason she’s so especially rare, great & special.😄
Wonderful song and she sings it beautifully, very impressive performance.
Thanks a lot guys :-) It's really warming my heart to hear what you're saying about Angelina. It seems you've landed permanently. At least until Angelina takes off. Just make sure to bring enough food, because our Angel is gonna soar HIGH, and she won't land again in several decades. LOL
Come join me on her concert here in Norway on July 10th ? I believe tickets are still available. Go to KURBADHAGEN and have a look :-) Take care guys! Love from your Norwegian freind :-)
Tjek out “Lloyiso” from S.Africa. Best young male singer around. Your type of singer from the heart. Start with the a Capella number: “Indlovu”
Very nice reaction and comments BP's. Just a beautifully written and beautifully sung song by this young lady. She has a big heart and it shows very much through this original song written by a 13-14 year old girl. It still gets to me every time I listen to this, remembering lost loved ones but it is more of a heeling song to me. Angelina has made a huge difference in my life since I discovered this wonderful human being and I am grateful for that. Thank you for supporting Angelina on your channel, always a pleasure watching and listening to the two of you.
This isn't her first original. Others would be:
Oslo (11) - ua-cam.com/video/R2HkKh_Cp8I/v-deo.html
What Is Life (12) - ua-cam.com/video/Bv0r77KN7RA/v-deo.html
Shield (12) - ua-cam.com/video/lQtUbVKb0vs/v-deo.html
And, of course, she published her book at age 9, based on her diary entries made at age 6.
She has been fully aware of her privilege and resources which allow her to take on her mission. She acknowledges not only her experiences but also her support throughout the years and has felt an obligation to make it count. You will hear her appreciation in her original songs. Even the earliest ones.
:-)) Love your work about AJ :-))
Angelina is the greatest singer in the world 🌎 as far as I’m concerned she’s not Adele or anyone else she’s simply Angelina Yes this was written about Angelina’s grandpa they were very close but she did say it’s also for anyone who lost a loved one she said on Instagram when it first came out I hope this song finds a place in your heart as it comes straight from mine she’s always thinking about other people as well and she’s such a caring human being there’s no one like her her own original songs are What is Life / Oslo/ Shield / Million Miles and 7th Heaven Republic Records told Angelina that she a one take wonder and that she’s the one there really concentrating on at the moment Angelina and her Uncle Michael who is her manger got a really good deal with Republic they have given her the freedom to do other things so that suited everyone Love from Denise in Yorkshire England 🏴👼👸🏻💞💞💞👋
As a vocal showcase it's excellent. But it is so much more - she's poured herself into this song.
@donepearce
This song really gave us a glimpse of what AJ can produce once she continue on her own original songs.
Brilliant
Nice reaction guys! In regards to Stargate, they are a multi-award winning record producers and songwriters. They have produced or written for Michael Jackson, Mariah Carey, Lionel Richie, Wiz Khalifa, Britney Spears, Beyoncé, Rihanna, Selena Gomez, Rita Ora, Normani, Mis-Teeq, Celine Dion, Blue, Janet Jackson, Shakira, Jennifer Lopez, Sam Smith, Mary J. Blige, Ne-Yo, Katy Perry, Coldplay, Pink, Sia, Whitney Houston, Nas, Chris Brown, Khalid, Charli XCX, Trey Songz and others. In a short video, one of the members of Stargate was recorded talking to Angelina and telling her that they have worked with many artists and they only know of 3 singers that can sing a song well from beginning to end in one take...Beyonce, Sam Smith, and Angelina! Talk about high praise! What a talent!
Great reaction once again from my favorite britpop duo. 👍 You pretty much said all there is to say about this song from. Angelina Jordan. Two-ish points I'd like to add. This is actually a live performance and not the studio recording she did whit Stargate. They did produce the song however, so they probably gave Angekina a few pointers on the arrangement. Still we know that Angelina has done arrengments of songs since she was 8 or 9 yo. Stargate did mention however, that they had worked whit 3 singers ever, to deliver perfect vocal tracks in the studio, in one take. Namely Beoncey Knowles, Sam Smith and Angelina Jordan. 3 fairly good singers there I would say.
Good point Kris, but Stargate has also worked with 30+ other big name vocalists that didn't make the one-n-done list.
I love this song it is a very emotional song about her grandfather and she does a great job ❤️🤗
Very beautiful reaction guys, this song for me is truly an identity card of Angelina, not only for her incredible vocal talent and of songwriter, but above all as a sensitive, highly ethical and emotional person. Needless to say but every time I hear this song I cry again, she really has a connection with people's tear glands. 💛 🧡 ❤️
I'm a lot more impressed by this than I am with her covers (which isn't a criticism at all, just in case I get flamed by her followers). I've always said she has a fantastic voice and is super talented, but her songwriting skill is superb. To be able to grasp your emotions with just lyrics themselves is a talent. Add in her heartfelt performance, and you have a winner. I completely agree. If you had a well established artist release this, it would top the charts. She'll definitely get there, and deservedly so.
But what's this?? We Brits don't have emotions! We have stiff upper lips! 😆 I dare you to check out James Blunt's 'Monsters'. Your stiff upper lip might have a wobble...
Have to listen to this again and again years later.brilliant guys.seen her live in Norway doing this was so amazing hits you right in the heart and at coronavirus time it was realeased so effected a lot of People Who could react to this!❤❤
Remember when Angelina sings "Gloomy Sunday" at age 7 and her mother wipes her tears behind the scenes, because she realized she had to leave Angelina to humanity, or something similar.
I think that we Angelina fans too will soon have to mourn to see our princess taken away to be delivered to everyone.
It's a lovely track. 👍👍
The song is beautiful. 👌👌
My ❤️ is in 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦
From Basque Country with ❤️.
She would kill it . doing a Bond theme song, it would be so amazing
Bangin' reaction, thanks! (I agree the cello is the perfect choice for conveying sorrow and melancholy. A piccolo flute or banjo just wouldn't cut it). ;-)
@KristenA
Ah brilliant, indeed it would have been a much different song with a banjo.
Cheers for the fun comment
This is the second and only live video of this song. The first one has the words over hand painted art by her and her grandmother. The third is a story video with her reading this as her younger sister Juliet plays her and her uncle/ manager plays her Grandpa
She made that for her grandad
This was the GREAT ❤mender of 2020.
It came like heaven sent in the darkest period of my life, and helped me purge through the💔, sorrow and traumas up till 2020.
This video is good, but personally and a bit odd to say, I like the lyrics video better.
Good to see some emotions there BP1, as the song got along 😉
Excelent reaction, thank you❣
What a great review guys Thank you. I got info I did not know, and I love that. Keep it up. Bless and be well. Oh, and to my mined and ear, She is top of the chart, and in fact I think she has set the bar for Any of her contemporaries A Million Miles above the industries current standers.
Gents, FYI StarGate are Norwegians and friends of Angelina for many years. They did the right thing to show Mr.Lipman what their young friend Angelina could do. You and your families stay safe and sound in this troubled times. German greetings.
Great reaction as usual, gents! Angelina's voice is healing. It's helped through many a dark night of the soul. I recently discovered a fun cover she did of Amy Winehouse's song Rehab, recorded live at a jazz festival when she was 12, with humorous age-appropriate lyric changes by Angelina. Here's the link for your consideration: ua-cam.com/video/MJnGNtYm24c/v-deo.html
Love your reactions, can’t see you have reacted to A Million Years Ago, just her and a guitar, superb. 💕💕
With an artist as good as AJ "Hands off" is best. Let her do her thing and the money will flow from this golden goose. If Republic try to stere her it will back fire.
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
She has already done a Bond song, Diamonds are Forever by Shirley Bassey.
It's the first performance she did with the team at Republic Records. The head of the LA studio has been working with her ever since . And she's a very competent singer as we know. Would have been a strange anomaly if the result wasnt very professional.
The interesting thing with RR is that they seem to be willing to play the long game with her. Which is quite unusual these days.
After this song she dropped another original with Republic called 7th HEAVEN. a jazzy song with some positive messages. Very different from this and quite fun. I can say the same about SHIELD .. another of her originals, that was written when she was 12, I believe. The words in SHIELD are profound and really show a private side of Angelina. I think of it as a prayer and love it. She is amazingly talented and a great writer. Her other two originals are WHAT IS LIFE? which was her 1st, and OSLO, about the city she was born at.
YOU GUYS ARE GREAT .. I LOVE WATCHING YOU AND TRULY APPRECIATE YOU BOTH.
Here is the original BP reacting to No 1&2 :-)
You just feel her pain and sadness in this song making it very personal. It is a sad and comforting song for losing a lost one. Not all tears are bad and finding relief and release is healing.
If you wish a James Bond kind of song. She covered 'Diamonds are forever' ua-cam.com/video/9RGZRg9YH3k/v-deo.html. More interestingly might be her original Shield which has a James Bond vibe to it and inspired by Shirley Basey: ua-cam.com/video/lQtUbVKb0vs/v-deo.html
They reacted to Diamonds Are Forever a few weeks ago
@@frankphillips5660 thanks!
Time till update the rating scale: 10/10 > BANGIN’ > Angelina

Feel the heartache at 6:35. Thanks Guys.
Can anyone explain how this song/performance is not an enormous hit in America and or all over the world for that matter. I guess it's because Adele did not record it---too bad Angelina--this is a tremendous song---- congratulations and you alone should know how beautiful it is.
You most find the take on UA-cam where Angelina Jorden sings the song "Mary's boy child" at the age of 10 -11 years old.
That is realy stunning!
She can realy tel a story with amotions and filing!
I agree with you she needs to do a Bond song. She is a beautiful amazing young woman ❤️
Would have this song received more attention had it not been released in the middle of a pandemic,it's a song about someone's passing,was it the right time?
Other told Angela when he passed away can be on the moon watching out for and he said, don’t worry watch you do everything will be fine. Those of the line that she just
Gents! Gotta try7th Heaven also an original it’s really good!
Check out our Angelina Playlist… think we done that one :) 🤔
GIVE HER 10 Daneliya Tuleshova can't even come closer to this masterpiece by Angelina.
Would be cool if Adele made a cover of this one from Angelina =)
Haha yes
