Of course, she has no limit and can imitate anyone, but the catalyst for her journey was her enthrallment with Black Jazz singers, which can be heard in her style still today since one always moves beyond one's point of departure.

    I dearly love Adele. Angelina Jordan's version somehow speaks more directly to me. It almost makes Adele's version seem clinical, while Angelina captures the wistful ache of the lyrics much more emotionally. No surprise really. She proved, at 7, that she was a song stylist to be reckoned with.

    The more you listen to Angelina the more you’ll see that aside from her unique vocal abilities, she always interprets lyrics so clearly even while giving us vocal dynamics. She delivers songs humbly and vulnerably-and we feel the meaning of the lyrics. And she does that across five or six genres. Angelina is the best singer I’ve ever heard.

    Very insightful comments. Learned a lot... Angelina seems to be in a category all on her own... But what a lofty category! She somehow really inhabits a song. She doesn't just sing a song. She lives it for us, draws us in to the intense emotions in a way few, if any, can equal. Listening to others after hearing Angelina sounds is soulless & heartless experience in comparison. Angelina really brings herself completely, and so effortlessly... yet so masterfully...

    A good example of Angelina's higher register is her 2/14/22 release "My Funny Valentine". Her maturing voice shines with new and delicate colors. Her characteristic phrasing,
    vibrato and complex textures are wonderfully enhanced. IMHO the best rendition I've heard in my last 50 years.

    The biggest difference to me is the vulnerability Angelina's version portrays. She invokes the desire to actually "go easy" on her because she is vulnerable but still trying to do the right thing. I don't get that from Adele, who seems to be past that and moving on, while not really asking for anything. I really enjoyed this comparison and that surprised me. I don't usually like to make comparisons b/c they are so subjective. This one seemed to have a more objective valuation based on technique and style choices.

    We are all an amalgamation of those who have influenced us, plus an ingredient that is only ours, which creates a unique individual. Angelina is no different; she is an amalgamation of Billie, Dinah, Frank, Ella, Etta, Elvis, Amy, Adele, Whitney, et.al., and that special Angelina ingredient, which gives us the one and only Angelina Jordan. She is certainly unique, yet has recognizable components of all that have influenced her---the girl with a 1000 voices. But there are other influences that make her special and that have created a person who is kind, humble, brave, giving, loving, and who wants to make the world a better place. I feel very privileged to have her in my life.

    What a wonderfully detailed comparative analysis. For me it is hands down Angelina who is better. I made a mashup of the two, and listening to them both over and over as I edited it it was very clear to me that Angelina had a richer, more varied and textured sound, but it was hard to put into words exactly what she was doing to achieve that. You have done so very, very well; thank you. One thing I would add is that Angelina often puts in little breaks, turning one syllable into two, and that's another bit of variation she gives to the song. You can really see how she makes use of her jazz roots.

    OMG! This was the best break-down of Angelina's vocals I have ever seen. The easiest subscription ever :-) In my opinion there has never been a shred of a doubt as to which voice I like more between the two. Angelina all day. I even liked Angelina's TikTok cover of this song better than the original, and she dropped that one just in a matter of HOURS after Adele dropped her single. That shows me (us? ) what of an incredible musical genius Angelina really is.
    I would really like to thank you for the time and effort you put into this, it's VERY much appreciated.
    I think you would LOVE to her her new rendition of "My Funny Valentine", which she dropped on Valentine's Day February 10th. Angelina turned 16 on January 10th, so she had probably just turned 16 at the time of recording. I say NEW rendition because she also made a rendition exactly 6 years earlier, at age 10. Listening to the two back to back shows you perfectly how she has developed. You can hear what she wanted to do at age 10, that her voice was just not yet capable of, but that she flawlessly and apparently effortlessly pulled off at age 16. I have been following Angelina since she won Norway's Got Talent in 2014, at the age of 7-8, and I think that this is the most beautiful she has ever done. I would die to hear what you think of it, and I will give you both links here, both to her 10 & 16 year old versions.

    Andreas WHAT AN UNBELIEVABLE REACTION !!!! I notice that I have already subscribed to your channel and I have no idea when and I don't remember you. Well, I won't forget you now!
    Let me preface my following comments by saying that comparing artists is not my cup of tea. Each artist performs with their distinct style and I may enjoy listening to one more than another. In this case, when asked which version do I enjoy the most, Angelina, hands down. You explained why to me but my opinion was based on the emotion Angelina added to the song. I was thrilled to hear your expert analysis of the differences in their styles.
    Adele is what, 29?, and is respected as perhaps the most famous singer in the world. And Angelina certainly respects her (particularly the music she writes!). Angelina is 16 now and in the industry she already has been given the unofficial label as a "singer's singer." Quite a compliment. And, Andreas (btw my next door neighbors name!), Angelina hasn't been officially marketed to the world yet (family decision) because she continues with her education for a while longer and, believe it or not, enjoy life as a teenage girl until the wraps are taken off and her career goes full blast.
    I don't know how many video's of Angelina you have reacted to but I would like to see and hear more from you about her. In fact, here's something I WOULD LOVE YOU TO REACT TO:
    There is a video of Angelina singing two versions of 'My Funny Valentine' on the same video. One is when she was 10 years old (2016) and the other most recently at 16 years old (2022).
    Andreas, the video was meant for you to react to. You'll see what I mean.

    Superb analysis. You have to give credit for Adele for her writing ability, and she is a fantastic vocalist. But you were right on point in that Angelina's mastery of her vocals provides a more emotional experience. Next reaction should be her 2022 version of My Funny Valentine that was just released.
    Do you want to grow your subscriber base while supporting Angelina's noble causes? Consider how to further develop your supportive relationship with the artist and her fans.
    It is clear you appreciate Angelina's immense talent. To connect with her and her fans emotionally, embrace peace and love! Angelina's stated goal from when she was a young child was to sing, and bring peace and love to the world. At 6 years old, she gave her shoes to a orphan girl, and since, she has helped raise millions for children's charities. About a year ago she did a stunning rendition of Michael Jackson's Heal the World. It wasn't just a song, but was an emotional plea from her heart. If you embrace her dream, please return the love so she can spread her message, and keep making beautiful music for the world.
    It is simple to do your part to help her make the world a better place. Provide links to her original video, official Channel, and even social media, if you have not already done so. Show the love by verbally educating your viewers. "Watch, Like, share, and comment on this and the original video, and subscribe to both mine and Angelina's channels. That will help both of us.The links are in the description" You may also use text boxes or banners.
    When you endear the fans of your viewers' favorite performers, you should see an increase in subscriptions as you have earned your fans' loyalty to your Channel. You will also contribute to Angelina's mission to create global harmony.

    ANGELINA JORDAN now 16 years old - Signed with Republlic Records only 14 years old. Her first album is work for release Born and raised in Oslo, Norway; this world-renowned singer has earned fantastic reviews for the amazing breadth, depth and maturity of her vocal talent that simply belies her young age. She started singing when she was only 1 1/2 years old !!!!
    Angelina’s videos have received over 1 billion views on UA-cam and almost 2,5 billion views on Facebook. Amazingly, her passion for music began at just one-and- a-half years of age when Angelina first saw Whitney Houston on UA-cam performing I Will Always Love You. Whitney - and later Billie Holiday, Dinah Washington - became her first major musical influences.
    At the age of seven, Angelina auditioned for Norway’s Got Talent performing Billie Holiday’s Gloomy Sunday. She won the competition with the show drawing record TV audiences.
    Not surprisingly, throughout her rising career, Angelina has featured in prominent media outlets including TIME, CNN, BBC, and People while also performing on the U.S. network TV shows Little Big Shots and The View.

    As well as singing before Nobel Peace Prize Laureates, charitable causes to which Angelina has given her talent include the Rainforest Alliance at the American Museum of Natural History in New York and Ein Herz für Kinder in Berlin where she helped raise over 21 Million Euros for children and families in need.
    This multi-talented singing prodigy has also written a successful, illustrated children’s book in her native Norway making Angelina the youngest published author in the country’s history.
    Based on the true story of when she was six years old, Angelina met a homeless, shoeless girl. After they talked for a long time, she gave the girl her shoes and vowed never to appear on stage again wearing shoes until all the world’s children had them. Since that time, Angelina has always performed barefoot in public.

I would be slow to say that Angelina is a better singer than Adele (thus far), simply because many would disagree. But she wins hands down in her ability to convey and evoke emotion - not only in this song, but in all of her performances.

    Wow you put quite the effort into that. Thats by far the most detailled comparison between the two versions so far, very interesting. I agree she's come a long way in her development, but I got a feeling we might still be witnessing just the beginning.
    Angelina always felt much thicker and broader with her voice to me in her Adele covers than Adele herself - love that. But anyway, I think Adele deserves some kudos for creating the song in the first place and she's a great artist.

In conclusion, Angelina's voice is one of kind and her singing ability and talent is beyond imagination!

    Her grandmother. Her muse. A fabulous artist in her own right. Jazz lover and started Angelina listening to it from a tiny infant. Angelina is considered a music savant. Her grandmother was also a child savant .. she was and still is an amazing painter. The outfit Angelina wore on AGT to sing Bohemian Rhapsody was made up of fabric made out of one of her grandmother's painting. She also taught Angelina to sew, by the way and she makes a lot of her clothes. Her grandmother just recently had to have an operation and it went ok .. but we got to see the fear in Angelina and the grief and passion she felt for her grandmother .. so this little piece before the song made us all cry. She is ok.
    Your reaction was brilliantly detailed. Thank you so very much. Extremely interesting.

    This was a very interesting and informative analysis and reaction, Andreas! Thank you for the obvious additional effort it required on your part. In answer to your question, that was her grandmother, Mery Zamani, with her in the first part of the video. They have a very special relationship. As good as this cover is, Angelina's latest (and 3rd) cover of "My Funny Valentine" shows even further development as an artist and is a stunning master class in jazz singing. The audio is obviously studio audio, but it's an IG upload with a self-made video in which she is not singing. In my opinion, she has now "taken possession" of this classic song. ua-cam.com/video/bWiLOnHJYxg/v-deo.html

    You've already indicated this, but I also feel that, ironically, Angelina expressed the meaning of the song better than Adele. The central line of the song is obviously "so go easy on me", which, in respect of those words, Angelina undoubtedly sang in a much lighter tone than Adele did. It's almost like Angelina "went easy" on her own vocal cords there in order to express that line; I like that idea/interpretation of hers. Without a doubt Angelina always looks for ways how to express every single word in a song, which is probably the most essential thing for being a vocalist and artist.

  • @ridgemanron
    @ridgemanron 2 роки тому +13

    It's only my personal observation but I separate the two of them by
    my belief that one is a no-jazz singer of greatness, and the other a
    true jazz specialist. I don't believe it's possible for a non-jazz singer
    to ever bring forth as much emotional penetration to the human soul
    as Angelina does. Her 'vocal chameleon' ability allows her to capture
    the essence of Adele's voice, but then she goes into her jazz roots to
    Billie Holiday, where she brings forth the 'breathy', 'whisper like', sensual
    inflections that Billie was famous for. Not satisfied yet, Angelina now goes
    to the furthest, opposite end of the jazz spectrum where Amy Winehouse
    reigned as the most uniquely different jazz singer of all time. Here, she
    adopts the 'slurring' of words (for added effect), as well as Amy's style of
    radically changing 'key' in mid-sentence. The result is extraordinary, for it
    gives the listener what sounds like the voices of four superstar singers in
    one song. Have never heard another singer being able to do something
    this intricately complex.......ever!

    What a great technical analysis of what it is that Angelina does to capture everyone’s heart with her singing. I’ve viewed many other reactions to this and other Angelina songs, but yours is the best I’ve seen so far, thank you for that.
    My summary of this song is Adele is a master to conceive and write the song, but Angelina is a genius at how to interpret it.
    As I’m no expert all I can say is Angelina’s voice speaks to me personally, I feel it not just hear it, it’s such a warm and intimate experience and most welcoming, like an old friend. I get the feeling she’s not deliberately doing all those things you mentioned, she just intuitively knows what to do, when and for what effect.
    In my opinion she is destined to become possibly the greatest female vocalist of all time, not because she’s technically superior, but because she conveys such emotion and touches your soul with her voice, it’s almost spiritual in nature.
    Wet eyes are hard to avoid when listening to her, and that’s a common viewpoint so all those thousands of people can’t be wrong!
    An exceptional artist of that there is no doubt!
    Was going to suggest you react to Morrisette Amon as she is one of a very few female singers who manages to get a similar reaction from me as Angelina does with her voice, and Dimash but I see you beat me to it from your playlist!
    Maybe have a look at Morissette’s ‘could you be Messiah’ as this was apparently done in a single take!

    Sweet reaction, thanks..Yes it is Angelina's grandma, Mery, who as of this filming was recovering from cancer surgery. I appreciated Angelina showing us that she was doing well. The picture of them together is so emblematic of who Angelina is. Check out her original "Million Miles" written as an homage to Mery's husband
    shortly after he died. IMHO Angelina's masterpiece, so far, is "I'm Still Holding Out For You". The release of this piece is shrouded in mystery, but its
    impact as a soul, blues, pop ballad will become immense. Oh yes, she was 10 years old when it was recorded, and I dare you to keep your eyes closed
    through your first hearing.

I like Adele and think she is a wonderful "singer" and she wrote a very nice song that when she sings it, it's just a song. Angelina is a master class vocalist in my opinion and that of other vocal coaches and just brings so much more to the interpretation of this song to the listener. Much more feeling and emotion when she performs this song. She did the same thing with Adele's "All I Ask", took it to another level and so much better than the original. Thanks for all your time on this, much appreciated and I see has been posted up on Angelina's FB fan page as well.
