Masterclass!! Best "LIVE" "RAW" version of this song ever. No fakery, miming to a pitch corrected track. A true artist, finally!!! Thank you Nina for your admiration towards Angelina.
Really injoyed your Reaction to Angelina's man's world. I found it very interesting you talking about how Angelina might not sing this next time, quite the same. I belive this too. Because she is so good at singing songs on the fly. Can change it slightly each time, to her mood at the time. I remember the Rehearsal. Portrait Of A Child. A Screaming J Hawkins Song. She wanted a better ending. Told the band. Then just did it. I think only 4 words and notes changed at the ending. Fantastic Ending. I think be 9 - 11years. I sure no older. I try put A link here. ua-cam.com/video/80f3t3dmBbk/v-deo.htmlsi=veKNA5oc9HHzlgKK
Thanks Nina for another great reaction/analysis of this "World Class" version of this iconic James Brown song. She 1st recorded it when she was 11 yo for her 1st album, "It's Magic" then she performed it live at 12 for the album release concert, then a few weeks later she sang it again live at a Jazz Festival. All 3 versions are slightly different & epic, but this one 6 years later, takes it to another level, IMO. I can't wait to see her live when she comes to the New York area. BTW, you are right, emoting, phrasing & tone, she is a master.
Thank you Nina! You never fail to pick up wonderful details that I miss. Here, not only about some of her phrasing, but also the interplay with the instrumentals/arrangement. And wish you could have been there too! This performance was pretty incredible to experience live - the 16-syllable LOST.... and then that ending. Just WOW. I think I stopped breathing for a few seconds. (Not to mention - there may have been a coded message in there to some record label executives). As for other songs she needs to do live again - AT LAST. The 'last' time she sang it in concert was at age 9. That song has a special place in my heart 🥰.
You probably saw video footage of her singing At Last as part of the sound check for one of her concerts in Norway in 2021.... those were there reported that it sounded amazing...
What a performance! Wow! Wow! She’s a master In these bluesy jazzy songs! Mind blowing! I’ve a smile on my face like the cat i Alice wonderland. 😀👌🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Nina, I'm sure you know since you were at the Glendale show. THIS is why every fan of Angelina owes it to themselves to see her live. She's incredible live, and she always manages to surprise you with something really special. This young lady is amazing! 🥰
Yes, and in Vegas it was my funny Valentine in the second show. As soon as I saw my first video of Angelina singing fly me to the moon on the view in 2015 seeing her live was my bucket list. Flew from Missouri to Vegas and went to both shows and the first meet and greet. Beautiful experience
Sounds a lot like my experience. 1st time I saw Angelina about 16 months ago was "I Put a Spell on You". Then seeing her on The View was the clincher. I've been listening to her every day since. I flew from Ohio to see her Glendale show. Looking forward to more soon.
Thanks Nina, as always a wonderful, thoughtful reaction/analysis. One song she had never done live is Whitney's "I Will Always Love You" and she did it here at this concert. James Theil has a exceptional edited video on his channel. Hope you will get a chance to share that one with us. Cheers, Happy New Year.
Great reactions to her vocals but one other thing that struck me - which I am a bit surprised you didn't comment on - is her facial expressions... so brilliantly "sassy" .. one other reactor commented on Angelina's "stank face" during parts of the song
Thanks Nina, Dal here, for responding to my Patreon request and the great reaction, I knew you would love it! The final song of her concert is special, I'll Always Love You, the first time she has done it live, she sang it at age 1 1/2, age 11 in an acoustic rehearsal, and a snippet on TikTok, but not live! You said in your comments, after your LA visit, that you loved her song Thank You, she did that at this El Rey theater concert, but as a stripped down version! Here are links to both songs! I'll Always Love You! ua-cam.com/video/7EwrXX98Kis/v-deo.htmlsi=K6cLGR0XN1sNfWKV Thank You! ua-cam.com/video/58oEdpnF3M0/v-deo.htmlsi=ZHFndj4UTsDJi3IJ
She places that anguish at the very back of the pocket almost into the next note but she makes it fit in the most human of ways. When the titans of songbook jazz are your mentors this is what it becomes.
Angelina brought tears to my eyes when she sang this with the military orchestra years ago. Well, more tears this time. I'm moved by the belts as much as the next person, but I hope the soul dripping every note she sings in this song is not lost by the listener. Blues, soul and jazz are so natural for Angelina. As you say Nina, it's the phrasing, she's a master. The song I would love Angelina to revisit is I'M STILL HOLDING OUT FOR YOU. I doubt it will ever happen but her performance of that song IMO was the birth of the soulful bluesy nastiness that is so natural for her. It's odd to see this very pretty demure soft spoken young woman conjuring up this rough juke joint sound. Thanks Nina, your the best.
That ending!!! When first hearing this the ending hit me the same as it hit you; watching your reaction let me relive it with the same emotion as that first time. Love the fun you have with every Angelina Jordan reaction! Thank you!!!
So true so true. Mabe it's because she started so early. She started around 2 years and thats when the human brain is calibrated to learn language. Music is language.
Hey Nina! Since she's turning 19 on the January 10th... I think it would be amazing to see a new version of 1954 classic "I just want to make love to you". Her 11 year old version is incredible if you haven't seen it (Its a MUST, cause she literally let it go wild), but the words were changed to "Loving you" for obvious reasons.
I finally was able to get to an Angelina concert (an Angel since 2016!). We were all feelin' it. Immediate standing ovation as she finished. It was a great concert. She just opens her soul and pulls in the audience.
Angelina was world class when she performed this at 11 years old but now at 18 she exhibits the true dynamic heart and soul of a world class singer ! Angelina never disappoints and only makes each and every performance an experience to remember ! She has always known who she is and what she wants in her performance ! As a young prodigy she was always able to convey her most in ner emotions through her vocals even though they hadn't fully developed but it was always there. I find now that as she's matured into a young beautiful singer she now takes the reins fully and is able to really bring out the true essence of what she wants and it comes out so so clearly in each and every one of her new performances. I want to thank you Nina for continuing with you, your wonderful Journey with our barefoot princess. Keep posting my friend. I hope you have a wonderful 2025 and all your wishes and dreams come true. Sending you much thanks and love from Canada 👍🇨🇦❤️❤️
Thank you Nina for your wonderful analysis and insight into Angelina's talent. When she did this at 12 years old I thought it could never be better. And here we are 6 years later and she is taking it to another level. The sky is the limit and I am here for it. Happy New Year.
Angelina just killed it! Effortless and the belts are still reverberating in the heavens! The constellation Orion just said what the heck just happened-Supernova-Mic drop! 🇳🇴🇺🇸💯 She can put that on the mantle and Jimmy Z killin it on the Sax!!🎷 Angelina at 12 years old killing It’s A Man’s World: ua-cam.com/video/HEm7tGrjIKk/v-deo.htmlsi=9-wOCnY2pBpcmweM
Nina, it was great meeting you at the Glendale concert, and I’m sorry you weren’t at the Christmas concert. Angelina was absolutely fabulous! This one was great as was her rendition of “I Will Always Love You”. You need to react to that one next!
I had been hoping for her to perform Shield at her last three concerts. If fact as great as her covers always are, for me I would personally prefer that she perform more of.her originals at her concerts as she is a great songwriter and those songs are directly from her heart and soul. For example at Glendale I could have done without Where Do Broken Hearts Go and Right Hear Waiting For You. Maybe Shield, Diamond or 7th Heaven instead.
This tops her already great earlier performance. She's looking so comfortable on stage these days. I'd love to hear her bring back "I'm A Fool To Want You."
Thank you so much for sharing another amazing reaction and analysis with us. 💕 I, like others have mentioned, would also be interested to see what you think about her _I Will Always Love You_ performance during the same concert. The contrast between her singing the two different songs is quite remarkable.
Thank you Ron! Ahh yes - so many great songs from this concert I will have to take a listen to. It’s a tough job but somebody has to do it 😉☺️ can’t wait!
Thank you for reviewing, that was such a raw powerful performance. Please also take a look at Angelina's latest cover of What a Wonderful Word (it's on Toby Gad's channel).
Happy New Year Nina. One of the things I love most about Angelina's singing, is how she makes every note of the song seem like the most important. Most singers are all about the BIG note, and seem to just forget about the rest of the song. Angelina always becomes the song and sings us the story. I would love for Angelina to sing "At Last" again, as it has been a few years. Happy 19th Birthday Angelina on January 10th.
For many of us, Angelina’s journey began with her enchanting performances as a young girl, when her extraordinary talent was just starting to emerge. Those early moments, especially in her native Norway, were truly remarkable, and this performance was among the most memorable. At the time, it seemed impossible to imagine how these already stunning renditions could be further enhanced. Yet here we are, witnessing not just the little girl with the magical voice but Angelina as a mature and commanding presence on the global stage. She has enriched her artistry with the depth and nuance that come from years of growth and dedicated practice. Rather than replacing the brilliance of her past, she builds upon it, adding layers of substance and sophistication that reflect her evolving musical talents. Angelina’s transformation is a testament to her artistry and dedication, a beautiful journey of a remarkable individual creating profoundly moving work. Thank you Nina, I appreciate your appreciation of this beautiful lady's work.
Happy New Year Nina 🎉🙂 Love to see you a happy girl 😅. Angelina really pumps out one's big grin when she blows off the roof here .. again. Talking about power: Yes
If you loved Nat you will love the incomparable Angelina Jordan. Nat King Cole's legacy is truly unforgettable. His smooth, velvety voice and timeless songs have left an indelible mark on the world of music. From classics like "Unforgettable" to "Mona Lisa" and "The Christmas Song," his music continues to resonate with listeners across generations. Cole's ability to convey deep emotion and warmth through his performances made him a beloved figure in the music industry. His contributions to jazz and pop music have cemented his place as one of the greatest artists of all time. If you loved Nat, you would love the new Jazz Queen, Angelina Jordan who has been wowing crowds for over 10 years, and she is only 18, almost 19.
She sings each sing as she feels it that moment..which I guess explains why each rendition has to be different..thx 🙏 Shared a few tears with you at the end! Epic!
Dear Nina, You are definitely a remarkable responder to music, I always learn so much from your highly informed analyses so thank you. Your comment that Angelina never simply follows the script and only presents a song the same way during each performance is true. Great artists balance profound discipline with being in the moment and space of their mind and soul and that of their audience. Angelina is definitely a creative and experimental artist always trying new ways that veer from the well-worn path. I have included a link below to a Sami singer/activist from the Sapmi Indigenous People of northern Norway, Sweden, Finland and adjacent Russian; the only Indigenous People of Europe. She is Mari Boine and I thought you might be interested in this very different kind of music where Mari integrates traditional themes with contemporary music. Let me know what you think. Many of her performances are on UA-cam and it is a link to AJ’s Norway. Peace PS I write too much🙀 ua-cam.com/video/ggYfGO8ep7Y/v-deo.htmlsi=rUBmYf4_8IxiEbba
Hi Nina. I would love to hear Angelina do a full version of Wicked Game and Hopelessly Devoted to You. She's teased TT of them, and they are g orgeous. I really loved hearing this song, and the beautiful production on the video. Thanks. Always enjoy your reactions!
You missed where she forgot the lyrics early on when she was singing the verses. You had stopped and when starting again, it skipped that part. I thought it interesting that she just hummed instead, then went right on with the song. She’s such a professional, and I love your reactions to her! If you haven’t seen her live performance of this at age 12 in an outdoor concert, you definitely need to do so! She even got the Conductor’s attention with that last note!
Some songs that would be nice to hear again: -- What a Difference a Day Makes (this Dinah Washington song effectively put Angelina on the World radar when she first sung it as an 8-year old in the Allsang på Grensen outdoor TV show, and last sung the song at a private concert when Angelina was 12 years-old. A poster on Facebook commented on the video of the performance that this was Amy Winehouse singing at 10-years old and that they missed Amy. Even though the poster corrected the comment a few days later, it was too late, and the video went viral and worldwide with over 30 million combined views as the video was reposted by several other people with the wrong caption that this was Amy Winehouse singing as a 10-year old child. Outside of the obvious fact that the show was recorded at Fredriksten Fortress in Halden, Norway, Amy also only started to seriously perform at the age of 19 when she signed with 19 Management in 2002) -- At Last [this song became Etta James' signature song, a true classic. It was originally written for the musical film Sun Valley Serenade in 1941. Etta released her version in 1960 as the title track of her debut album (At Last!) and Etta's version ended up being inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame. Angelina last sung the song when she was 15-years old with Jimmy Z who himself had played with Etta for 10 years] -- Shield [this song was co-written by Angelina and not sung since Angelina was 13 years old. The first big public singing of Shield was when Angelina was 12-years old and she performed it on the Skavlan Norwegian-Swedish TV talk show. This show was quite popular and typically had 2.5 to 3 million viewers split primarily between Norway and Sweden. Angelina gave an interview before her performance where Angelina said that when she sings she goes into another world full of happiness. Shield has a James Bond feel to it and Angelina during the interview said she liked Diamonds Are Forever and then sang a few bars a cappella. Shield was also the first single that Angelina self-published]

Beside the differences in the arrangement and size of the bands, there’s a big difference in the depth of the tonality of her voice, she hummed the lyrics about the train instead of singing them, and of course the ending was entirely different. I think I’m still more impressed with her at 12, but the orchestra was too loud, so the new version to me is more enjoyable!
@@kerrythomas6220That was outdoors as well and meant for “belting.” I especially enjoyed the (facial) reactions of the 2nd clarinetist at the start (the 1st clarinetist is cut out of the frame) and the conductor near the end.
The problem is we have more than a dozen perfect songs from her past. Perfect singing, perfect mix, perfect lighting and a perfect performance. All of that 'perfection' made her a famous singer even as a child. This sounds like it's going on in the next room over. None of these homemade videos have great sound or mix. It's not bad, but it's not world class, and I'm not sure it helps her. I haven't listened to any of these live videos more than once. Many of her songs , I've listened to 100+ times. To all of you that create these video's, no doubt it's with genuine passion. Seriously...genuine passion. But I would not show ANY of these to a newbie listening to Angelina. Compare any song with this band, with her sitting on a couch singing "A million years ago." One connects on an emotional level. I don't feel any intimacy with her and this band...even though they have improved. Sit her down in a small dark club, with just her and a piano and guitar, Let her melt the crowd with her passion.
I would like to hear her do "At Last" again. Angelina recently did "What a Wonderful World" and it was soft, light, creamy, and silky. Would love to hear your take on it as it was a "different" Angelina in a way. Always enjoy you doing Angelina as I like to hear what other skilled individuals think. Will leave a link. Have a good week. ua-cam.com/video/s_ed_oj1Ijo/v-deo.html
Hi Nina...you don't usually react to bands but please react to this family band from the Philippines...MISSIONED SOULS cover of SEPARATE WAYS by JOURNEY...AMAZING..AMAZING..COVER!!...THANKS A LOT NINA!!...AND HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU!!!
I have been a huge fan of Angelina for 6 yrs. Have watched all of her cover videos. Sadly, the newer videos of her singing live, has been a huge disappointment. I think Angelina's voice is going thru a transition & she may be having a hard time to adjust to her voice changing. I still love her & she will be a phenomenon in time.
An early Happy Birthday to Angelina! To me this was vocal excellence - what do you think of this vocal?
Masterclass!! Best "LIVE" "RAW" version of this song ever. No fakery, miming to a pitch corrected track. A true artist, finally!!! Thank you Nina for your admiration towards Angelina.
Crazy, crazy good. As you said, phrasing, phrasing, and phrasing! Also tone, vibrato, switching from belt to whisper at will, etc etc
She can do anything that was a masterpiece ❤❤

Ahh it was overwhelming! It’s a sort of pride if that’s the right word?! Thank you so much for watching with me ☺️
Exactly, Nina. I have commented a number of times on Angie's songs - phrasing, phrasing, phrasing.
That’s it! She’s got an ear for it 🎵
So true so true.
Mabe it's because she started so early.
She started around 2 years and thats when the human brain is calibrated to learn language.

Shield was my pick, just behind Gloomy Sunday where it all began and as far as I know she’s not performed again
I had been hoping for her to perform Shield at her last three concerts. If fact as great as her covers always are, for me I would personally prefer that she perform more of.her originals at her concerts as she is a great songwriter and those songs are directly from her heart and soul.

Wonderful reaction Nina, thank you! This amazing girl is my absolute favorite singer. 💛🧡❤
Love, love,love your analysis. Angelina takes it up another level every time. Have no idea how she does it.❤❤👣❤❤
This tops her already great earlier performance. She's looking so comfortable on stage these days. I'd love to hear her bring back "I'm A Fool To Want You."
Someone has to have the clout to get Angelina on the "Kelly Clarkson Show" and have her sing this song and "Bad Valentine"
Thank you so much for sharing another amazing reaction and analysis with us. 💕 I, like others have mentioned, would also be interested to see what you think about her _I Will Always Love You_ performance during the same concert. The contrast between her singing the two different songs is quite remarkable.
Thank you Ron! Ahh yes - so many great songs from this concert I will have to take a listen to. It’s a tough job but somebody has to do it 😉☺️ can’t wait!
chills on that sustained finish.... 😍

Thank you for reviewing, that was such a raw powerful performance. Please also take a look at Angelina's latest cover of What a Wonderful Word (it's on Toby Gad's channel).
I need to see he in a 24 hours concert singing Everything!
Happy New Year Nina. One of the things I love most about Angelina's singing, is how she makes every note of the song seem like the most important. Most singers are all about the BIG note, and seem to just forget about the rest of the song. Angelina always becomes the song and sings us the story. I would love for Angelina to sing "At Last" again, as it has been a few years. Happy 19th Birthday Angelina on January 10th.
Said very well Andy! And yes At Last would be excellent 👌🏻
For many of us, Angelina’s journey began with her enchanting performances as a young girl, when her extraordinary talent was just starting to emerge. Those early moments, especially in her native Norway, were truly remarkable, and this performance was among the most memorable. At the time, it seemed impossible to imagine how these already stunning renditions could be further enhanced.
Yet here we are, witnessing not just the little girl with the magical voice but Angelina as a mature and commanding presence on the global stage. She has enriched her artistry with the depth and nuance that come from years of growth and dedicated practice. Rather than replacing the brilliance of her past, she builds upon it, adding layers of substance and sophistication that reflect her evolving musical talents.
Angelina’s transformation is a testament to her artistry and dedication, a beautiful journey of a remarkable individual creating profoundly moving work. Thank you Nina, I appreciate your appreciation of this beautiful lady's work.
I always look forward to your reactions! They're the best!
❤️❤️❤️❤️👣 I'm so happy to see you back with Angelina. Thank you, Nina.
Phrasing, phrasing, phrasing. One of the reasons Angelina is one of the great singers in the world today is her extraordinary phrasing.
Nina -- brilliant reaction, as always!
Thank you so much!
Thanks, Nina, for your commentary...this was a mind-blowing, eye-watering performance! Angelina is so, so far out there!
Thanks!
Thank you so much for your support! 🥰
Thanks for your reaction. NOTE! I listened to your music too, and I liked what I heard. You are a real PRO. 😊😊😊😊
Ah thank you so much! I really appreciate that 🥰
What a class act you are Nina. Definitely my fave AJ reactor. Love, love love your analysis. God bless and thanks for reacting to this classic.
Aw thank you so very much! 🥰
❤❤🔥🔥😇 Exceptional!!
Happy New Year Nina 🎉🙂
Love to see you a happy girl 😅. Angelina really pumps out one's big grin when she blows off the roof here .. again.
Talking about power: Yes
Absolutely no one like AJ !!!
If you loved Nat you will love the incomparable Angelina Jordan.
Nat King Cole's legacy is truly unforgettable. His smooth, velvety voice and timeless songs have left an indelible mark on the world of music. From classics like "Unforgettable" to "Mona Lisa" and "The Christmas Song," his music continues to resonate with listeners across generations. Cole's ability to convey deep emotion and warmth through his performances made him a beloved figure in the music industry. His contributions to jazz and pop music have cemented his place as one of the greatest artists of all time. If you loved Nat, you would love the new Jazz Queen, Angelina Jordan who has been wowing crowds for over 10 years, and she is only 18, almost 19.
❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉Aj🎉😊love you
She sings each sing as she feels it that moment..which I guess explains why each rendition has to be different..thx 🙏 Shared a few tears with you at the end! Epic!
Thanks Nina! Always love your expert commentary. Hopefully we'll see you again at another Angelina concert. 👏👏😇
That would be fabulous! Thank you for watching 🥰
Thank you Nina. Please react to her version of"It's a Wonderful World"
. Thanks again@
Slightly off the question here , but I was listening to Dina Washington this morning and thought; I’d love to hear Angelina cover mad about the boy.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Dear Nina,
You are definitely a remarkable responder to music, I always learn so much from your highly informed analyses so thank you. Your comment that Angelina never simply follows the script and only presents a song the same way during each performance is true. Great artists balance profound discipline with being in the moment and space of their mind and soul and that of their audience. Angelina is definitely a creative and experimental artist always trying new ways that veer from the well-worn path.
I have included a link below to a Sami singer/activist from the Sapmi Indigenous People of northern Norway, Sweden, Finland and adjacent Russian; the only Indigenous People of Europe. She is Mari Boine and I thought you might be interested in this very different kind of music where Mari integrates traditional themes with contemporary music. Let me know what you think. Many of her performances are on UA-cam and it is a link to AJ’s Norway. Peace PS I write too much🙀

Hi Nina. I would love to hear Angelina do a full version of Wicked Game and Hopelessly Devoted to You. She's teased TT of them, and they are g orgeous.
I really loved hearing this song, and the beautiful production on the video. Thanks. Always enjoy your reactions!
She has potential ❤
You missed where she forgot the lyrics early on when she was singing the verses. You had stopped and when starting again, it skipped that part. I thought it interesting that she just hummed instead, then went right on with the song. She’s such a professional, and I love your reactions to her! If you haven’t seen her live performance of this at age 12 in an outdoor concert, you definitely need to do so! She even got the Conductor’s attention with that last note!
Some songs that would be nice to hear again:
-- What a Difference a Day Makes (this Dinah Washington song effectively put Angelina on the World radar when she first sung it as an 8-year old in the Allsang på Grensen outdoor TV show, and last sung the song at a private concert when Angelina was 12 years-old. A poster on Facebook commented on the video of the performance that this was Amy Winehouse singing at 10-years old and that they missed Amy. Even though the poster corrected the comment a few days later, it was too late, and the video went viral and worldwide with over 30 million combined views as the video was reposted by several other people with the wrong caption that this was Amy Winehouse singing as a 10-year old child. Outside of the obvious fact that the show was recorded at Fredriksten Fortress in Halden, Norway, Amy also only started to seriously perform at the age of 19 when she signed with 19 Management in 2002)
-- At Last [this song became Etta James' signature song, a true classic. It was originally written for the musical film Sun Valley Serenade in 1941. Etta released her version in 1960 as the title track of her debut album (At Last!) and Etta's version ended up being inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame. Angelina last sung the song when she was 15-years old with Jimmy Z who himself had played with Etta for 10 years]
-- Shield [this song was co-written by Angelina and not sung since Angelina was 13 years old. The first big public singing of Shield was when Angelina was 12-years old and she performed it on the Skavlan Norwegian-Swedish TV talk show. This show was quite popular and typically had 2.5 to 3 million viewers split primarily between Norway and Sweden. Angelina gave an interview before her performance where Angelina said that when she sings she goes into another world full of happiness. Shield has a James Bond feel to it and Angelina during the interview said she liked Diamonds Are Forever and then sang a few bars a cappella. Shield was also the first single that Angelina self-published]

I would love to have her sing it would be “I’m still Holding out for You”.
Thanks Nina. ❤❤❤
Thank you for watching! 🫶🏻
Hi..Niña , is Waaaaoo!! ❤❤❤
Hello!! 👋🏻🥰
😀😀😀😀😀
I would love for Angelina to re do Autumn leaves with her own spin
🎼🤗💞👍🏼
I hope she is alright. We're a few days from her birthday and it's been complete silence for a while from her and her grandma on social media.
Probably on vacation, maybe Sara and Paul are getting married during the Holidays. They do deserve some time away from the prying public’s eyes!
consider comparison of 18 year old (almost 19 yo) v 12 year old ua-cam.com/video/HEm7tGrjIKk/v-deo.htmlsi=i6OToGdNnDlOaSrC
Beside the differences in the arrangement and size of the bands, there’s a big difference in the depth of the tonality of her voice, she hummed the lyrics about the train instead of singing them, and of course the ending was entirely different. I think I’m still more impressed with her at 12, but the orchestra was too loud, so the new version to me is more enjoyable!
@@kerrythomas6220That was outdoors as well and meant for “belting.” I especially enjoyed the (facial) reactions of the 2nd clarinetist at the start (the 1st clarinetist is cut out of the frame) and the conductor near the end.
The problem is we have more than a dozen perfect songs from her past. Perfect singing, perfect mix, perfect lighting and a perfect performance. All of that 'perfection' made her a famous singer even as a child. This sounds like it's going on in the next room over. None of these homemade videos have great sound or mix. It's not bad, but it's not world class, and I'm not sure it helps her. I haven't listened to any of these live videos more than once. Many of her songs , I've listened to 100+ times. To all of you that create these video's, no doubt it's with genuine passion. Seriously...genuine passion. But I would not show ANY of these to a newbie listening to Angelina. Compare any song with this band, with her sitting on a couch singing "A million years ago." One connects on an emotional level. I don't feel any intimacy with her and this band...even though they have improved. Sit her down in a small dark club, with just her and a piano and guitar, Let her melt the crowd with her passion.
❤❤Dear Nina
Please do another reaction video to Iranian songs. Thank you!❤❤
I would like to hear her do "At Last" again. Angelina recently did "What a Wonderful World" and it was soft, light, creamy, and silky. Would love to hear your take on it as it was a "different" Angelina in a way. Always enjoy you doing Angelina as I like to hear what other skilled individuals think. Will leave a link. Have a good week.

Hi Nina...you don't usually react to bands but please react to this family band from the Philippines...MISSIONED SOULS cover of SEPARATE WAYS by JOURNEY...AMAZING..AMAZING..COVER!!...THANKS A LOT NINA!!...AND HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU!!!
I have been a huge fan of Angelina for 6 yrs. Have watched all of her cover videos. Sadly, the newer videos of her singing live, has been a huge disappointment. I think Angelina's voice is going thru a transition & she may be having a hard time to adjust to her voice changing. I still love her & she will be a phenomenon in time.
🥰🥰🥰
