Well that’s it, I’m hooked! I will be reacting to every song she has ever and will ever perform. I hope you’ll join me on my journey by subscribing. If you would like to support my channel by PayPal or Bitcoin please use the email in THIS videos description for all the details. Now for my little question... is there a song that you would love Angelina to sing?

By the way, I don't believe you. You're not hooked. Not yet. I think all of the AJ fans are thinking, "Oh... you ain't seen/heard nuthin' yet." All of us are waiting for you to do one certain number.
Why not start with "I Put a Spell on You" (B&W version, 9 y.o) and then "Feeling good", the latter performance is from the same place as the "What a different a day make" was done, Fredrikstens fästning (fortress) in the city of Halden near the Swedish border. I believe it's recorded one year later than "What a different a day make" but others may know better(?). BTW the fortress is the place where the most famous king of Sweden (Karl XII) was killed in an effort to attack Norway 1718. I put a spell on you: ua-cam.com/video/nwFloCPXzCs/v-deo.html Feeling good: ua-cam.com/video/7HaMvkflBAo/v-deo.html
@@jonaslarsson6078 Actually Jonas the "All Sang pa grensen" performance was prior to the "LIVE on The Stream Gir Tilbake" performance. The All Sang performance was posted on UA-cam in 6/2016 and the "LIVE on The Stream Gir Tilbake" performance was posted in 1/2017, but took place 1 month earlier.
Another ANGELina Angel have SUBscribed. Maybe you should follow Rusty Shacklefords cronological list, maybe, or at least look at it, so you know what's what and when? ^^ the beginning is "I who have nothing, she was 6 yrs, and trying out her singing in a studio... think it had something to do with her school. anyways, adorable. After that song, the list playlist should appear on the right in cronological order (age and performance) fyi ;) Link below. Thank you and greetings from Arctic Lo-Ve Islands, Norway o/ ua-cam.com/video/RjQZKBpVaes/v-deo.html
Hello, Barry! Love you reactions to Angelina! She's now 17 and she is going to have her first USA Concert Sep 22, 2023, in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, in The Historic Theater at The Music Hall. The sitting capacity is 895 and so it will be a very intimate affair. She has an EP out featuring 6 songs from her new album (all original music) and perhaps the album will be officially introduced at the time of her Concert. To say the least I am very excited about going and I hope they sell smelling salt at the concession area because I'm afraid half the audience is going to faint when she first appears on stage! (No lie!) She graduated secondary school in June and it has been determined by her and her very loving family it's time to shift gears and now go forward, full steam ahead, to bring her career to new depths. New depths? That everyone in the world will know who Angelina Jordan is and the love in her heart will touch everyone. Incredible? Barry, we are so fortunate she is amongst us and the love which is in the air is a two way street. She truly loves us and we love her very much and want her to know if she ever has a moment where she needs strength we will always be there to give her comfort. Hope you are well. Barry, you have some of that same magic as Angelina and it can be defined as being a good soul, a caring human being, and the feeling we get when we see people like the both of you is very genuine. Take care.
Thanks so much for your informative and enthusiastic reaction to Angelina..much has been written below..I just want to add two things,,.whilst her talent is god given the work she puts into her craft even from a young age is remarkable! Also, are you aware of her humanitarian side? She's already raised millions for charity and has pledged to use her gift to help others and help alleviate suffering..she's a special person ...)) thank you 🙏
ABSOLUTELY SPEECHLESS........ from the first moment her MOTHER INTRODUCED ANGELINA JORDAN TO THE WORLD....AN ABSOLUTE ANGEL SENT FROM OUR ALMIGHTY FATHER 🙏....✌️❤️🤗☮️ PEACE LOVE HAPPINESS 🇺🇸🦅🌎✝️🌹
Angelina is the singing Emotional Atomic Bomb , and she just blows our mind away to a state of of hypnotic bliss and the best most can utter is just to say Wow! Wow! Wow!
What a marvelous review. Thank you for airing the beautiful work of Angelina Jordan Astar. Her name itself says it all . What a treasure for the world, coming from a child, so we have a lifetime to hear her Amazing God given gift to all.
I agree 100%. I've been following her for about 5 years, and I'm still amazed every time I hear her sing. The emotion that she displays, she should know nothing of at her age, yet no matter what it is, I smile or I cry from the joy or the sadness. She truly is a gift from God, and I am so happy that she pestered her mother at 7 years old to be on "Norway's Got Talent". You still have so many songs to react to, and each one is wonderful in it's own way. There are a couple that stand out more than others, in my opinion, and the one that Angelina's fans always look forward to, is her black and white video of Screaming Jay Hawkins original 1956 "I Put A Spell On You", when she was 9 years old. The other is her rendition of Queens, "Bohemian Rhapsody" at 13 years old on America's Got Talent: The Champions 2. No matter where you go, I'm along for the journey, as I just love watching people discovering this amazing young lady. (she will be 15 on Jan 10)
Barry, I am so happy you have found Angelina! Hooked, you are! She touches our heart when she sings and our heart will not let her go. She is impossible to resist. I look forward to all your Angelina reactions. Barry, her goal is to spread love to the world through her music. Amen.
Barry, it's now June 3, 2023, and Angelina is 17 and going strong. She is graduating from secondary school this month and a new album (all original music!) is coming out soon, probably to coincide with a worldwide tour of sorts. Last summer she performed a series of Concerts in Norway and people from all over the world attended because they couldn't pass up the opportunity to see her perform live. Within the past month she has introduced one of the songs from the album, 'Love Don't Let Me Go', and it is doing very well globally. It is a catchy number and is getting the attention of the younger audience. There was a concern her fan base had an average age of 50 because of all the covers she does and the element of jazz but that is all changing now and Barry, her popularity will soar to heights unimaginable. Do we expect all the new people coming aboard to react any differently than we did when we discovered her? Of course their brains will not be able to figure out what is going on when they listen to her sing FOR THEM (she sings FOR people, not to people) but their hearts will hear within seconds the love in her voice and the door to their hearts will open wide to let her in. They will get goosebumps, start to tear up (with the urge to cry) and find it difficult to string words together to make intelligent sentences during or right after she sings. She remains humble, kind, caring and loving and I believe she will touch everyone in the world with her love. Barry, the more everyone finds out 'who she is' makes it very evident she is much, much more than a wonderful singer. I will always stop by to say hello to you and I hope you are well. Or, as we say in New York, "How ya doin'?" Why do I get the feeling you are in demand to sing for people who adore you. Yes? Barry, the love pours out of you when you sing, as well.
She IS jazz for me..of course I love the greats but Angelina has a special place in my heart..I feel blessed to have discovered her )) Great reaction Barry..thank you ))
Barry, as you progress through her repertoire of songs you will notice that when the performance really grabs her and she is possessed by the song, her eyes close and her head sways. Doesn't matter if she is sitting on her couch or performing with an orchestra. Sometimes she is experimenting and it is still remarkable but those times she inhabits the song are magic. Grab your heart and make you catch your breath. This girl is a gift to us. I say thank you every time l hear her.
so - thanks a billion again... Barry, as I never subscribe at the first video it is rare that I subscribe at the seconde - like with you... ;-) I hope to see more and more and more reaction videos from you with AJ songs - and I hope not only one per week.... Best wishes, slan Andreas
When she closes her eyes, you can see she's feeling the song. She was brought up in a household full of the old jazz masters. It's the only music she enjoyed while little and absorbed all of the technique used by Billie, Ella, Sara ]h Vaughn and others. Now she covers Adele, Queen, Whitney Houston, John Legend and many others. She makes every cover her very own. The ANgelina Jordon Cover Channel has had over 36 million views.
1000s of people and she sings like she is off in another world by herself. Nerves of steel and pure confidence. If their wasn't video you would not believe she exists. Pure perfection.
This song was my intro to this prodigy....I have been entranced ever since and listen to her almost every day. You sir do her justice with an honest and direct reaction.
This is my favorite Angelina song. It's so stunning, and so simple. No need for dramatic effects and pyrotechnics. Just heart, and pure music. As PinkLemonTV says, she's "amazingly amazing." I look forward to seeing you react to her later songs, like "Still Holding Out for You" and "All of Me" and... well, everything.
Hi Barry, that was a wonderfully fun reaction & review of Angie. Thank you so much. Your fun to watch when your doing Angie songs. Welcome to the world of Angelina’s music. Angie takes covers & Angelinalizes them & they become new. She chooses, & does all her own arrangements ever since she was very young, even when she did “Screaming Jay Hawkins “I put a spell on you” ua-cam.com/video/nwFloCPXzCs/v-deo.html at age barely 9, if you react to this be ready for a major Roller Coaster ride. She also paints, plays 4 instruments & speaks & sings 4+ languages, English being her 3rd or 4th. Angie turned 14 on 1-10-20. Angie is a very kind, giving, loving, respectful, & big hearted Christian girl. She always sings barefoot when performing & she wrote a book about it at 9 called “Between Two Worlds”, others will explain this or you can look it up. When you listen to Angie there are a few of her songs you'll need a box of tissues & you can even pause (blow nose) & start filming again. I'll give you a link to her 1st released single by Republic records titled “Million Miles” She wrote this shortly after her grandpa (mom’s dad) died in Nov. 2019, she was 13 than she sang it at 14. Angie & her grandma did the art for the video. Angelina said, “This song is dedicated to anyone who has lost a loved one. I wrote this song thinking about all the great memories I had with my grandpa and how much it hurts to lose someone. I hope this song finds a place in you heart, as it comes straight from mine”. Stargate producer singer/songwriter Dakota posted on her instagram regarding the collaboration with Angie, said “This girls talent is freakin insane.”

Angelina is one of the most addictive singers I have ever listened to, & one of the very few, that can pull you right into the song, making you feel, every word, every note, & every emotion. ❤️💙 I always have this feeling that Angelina is not only channeling some of these late great singers, but that they also pass through her, when she is singing their song ❤️💙 A rare beauty, in every sense of the word ❤️💙 Whether you are a believer in reincarnation or not, I find it very intriguing that Lou Rawls, the American Jazz & blues singer legend, passed away the same day Angelina is born 😊 Loved your reaction & commentary!!!
I am so excited to take that journey with you. Love your reaction. Will follow you on other artist as well She is so amazing as I know you will have ahead, chills, amazement, tears, goosebumps and so much more. Have fun, I will be there. : )
👩🏻🎤🎵🌎⭐️🇳🇴❤️ Thanks Barry for another wonderful Angelina reaction. You have embarked on a magical journey full of surprises and enchanting performances. I've subscribed, and I look forward to your next Angelina reaction.
Barry, never mind the technicalities, she's gotten to you too and I saw those tears you swallowed......I cry when I hear her ......all the time, unashamed and happy
She puts goosebumps on your goosebumps. She’s a child prodigy. Like Mozart. She was rehearsing with an orchestra in one video and she corrected their timing, in the most inoffensive way possible of course!
I am delighted to hear you love Angelina. As your other viewer said to me, you now have the trinity of talent in your hands with Angelina, Dimash and Pentatonix. It is lovely to see you react so openly and be lost for words at the amazing talent. Bless you lots, Easter
You said it Barry, Voice that carries emotions of experience WAY beyond her age. Her voice is amazing. like some blues singer's spirit took over her body and sang THROUGH her.
Looking away from the extraordinary voice and technique she is showing I am just blown away by the emotion she put into her rendition of this song. And that in the age of eight...just fenomenal!
She was born to sing, yes, with that God given talent. I have already listened to everything I could find so decided to subscribe since you seem to enjoy her as much as I have. Great job Barry if you can call it a job. Thumbs up sir, until next time.
She got you! We understand. This will be a fun journey filled with awe and amazement. You will be speechless again. Lots of smiles, a few tears, some head shaking. Hold on tight. Her fans are on board.
Hola Barri que linda voz tiene esta bellísima niña guauuuu Espectacular me encanta ♥️ Barri desde mi país España te mando un cordial saludo bendiciones 🙏
Barry, in my opinion, you don’t listen to an Angelina performance. You experience it. I have never been more profoundly emotionally affected by a young singer as I have been with Angelina. There are not enough adjectives to describe the all consuming visceral experience I feel when listening to this incredibly and uniquely gifted young child. Her performances are absolutely breath taking, stunning and captivating. There is a common denominator with all of her live performances and that is other than claps and cheers you don’t hear a peep coming from the audience. They are all hypnotized and wholly fixated on every word and syllable that comes from Angelina’s voice. I thank God I discovered Angelina. She is like a drug. We keep wanting more and she always delivers.
For years i regretted being born too late. Missing Ella, Nina, and Billie live . But now we have Angelina, and she’s just getting started. Her voice is beyond captivating. Her delivery comes from the ages and her lows are smokey lush pancakes of sound. Fecking buttery!
Thank you Thank you for this reaction and review, which I think you will find Angelina fans will love what you are doing just as much as I love it. I have followed you through most of your videos and was patiently requesting Angelina, ok ok so I was not so patient, yes I was pestering, but I knew you would love her, and with your style of doing reactions and reviews, it was perfect. I know you have lots of requests, but I think I will request "I Put A Spell On You" Black and White version at 9 years old, it is kind of an initiation of sorts to new reactors and it will draw even more fans than you have now. It is definitely a different side of Angelina that comes out every once in a while. Also when you get 30k which will be soon hoping you will sing us a song, I know it will be great. Hope Your Christmas season is wonderful, oh and Angelina does have a few Christmas songs "White Christmas 2016 version (live)" (there is a younger one but she has a bad cold) and "Mary's Boy Child" but it is audio.
It bears mentioning that in this venue AJ is on tiny stage a dozen meters or more from her backup singers and a dozen more (at least) from the band..talk about being on an island. Yet the 8yo Angelina is utterly unfazed by this, is completely at ease, closes her eyes most of the time and takes us all on a journey to her special singing place. Wow. Yes, as you say, she dominates any jazz composition she touches but her versatility to perform other genres is equally impressive (if that can be possible). You will see. Keep going and Merry Christmas!
Yes, Barry, she does have jazz in her blood a God given talent indeed. I have had the fortune of coming across Angelina when surfing the internet for great talent worldwide 5 years ago. That’s when I discovered Dimash and over time these two are my all time favorites. It’s been a pleasure seeing your lovely reaction to the enormous talent before us. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and sense of humor. You have another Dear, Barry. Great entertainment. Keep it up 👍, mate.🙃🤪🥰🌿🌿🎶🎶🤣🙏🕊🤗😻
Angelina always puts an extra of feelings in her interpretations. She does this with every single word what makes her singing so special (beside all the technical stuff). Thank you for your reaction and welcome to the rabbit hole 😆
Happens to the best of us! 😂 Once you've heard Angelina sing, you're forever hooked! The thing with her is not that she has an amazing voice, cuteness overload when she was young and beautiful young lady now. There's a quality in the way she sings, like you said the emotion she puts in every word, that it grabs you and goes straight to your heart. By the way, I really like your approach to the reaction: listening, reviewing, final thoughts (if you can manage some, lol) See you in the next one ;)
I miss ya ! I have not seen new reactions but then my old acct was hacked. Glad I found you again. You are a joy to watch. I hope and pray you are doing well.
Your reactions are very entertaining,much more refreshing than just the oohs and awws of many reactors.Of course with this artist you have great material to work with.
Dear Barry ☘️ that voice can’t possibly come out of that little Angelina! I see a dark smoky gin joint and a weary chanteuse with a cigarette in hand singing to an even wearier crowd. Angelina’s talent astounds me, she’s a jazz baby. What style! Please, more of this little Angel. Thank you for this wonderful video🤗
Great reaction! When it comes to Angelina, the first word that comes to me is "reincarnation". There's no doubt in my mind that an old soul lives within this gift from the heavens we've been given. She is the catalyst that is creating interest in this music from a bygone era, and that includes many of today's younger generation. Will it make a comeback? Only time will tell.
Barry, when are you going to sing something for us?? I mean a whole song! Yes, Angelina is amazing, but it would be just as amazing to hear you. Please please please?
I agree. It's hard to find words ... What should you really say? Other than experiencing this phenomenon that we are so lucky to experience. All jazz legends gathered in one little girl
Welcome to the world of Angelina Jordan. She has been described as a once in a lifetime talent and even as a once in a thousand years talent.. She will thrill and amaze you no matter the song, the genre or her age at the time she isn performing. She has over 100 videos, including four of her original songs on UA-cam so you have your work cut out for you to get through them all.....you better get started right away. I have signed on to share your journey. Tighten your seat belts...as they say.... "You ain't seen nothing yet!".
Wow. She makes a person reassess their judgment on reincarnation. If anyone can be reborn again, this lovely girl was. I remember her being on America's Got Talent, the Champions, but she was older. And, BARRY...She sang Bohemian Rhapsody in a way you've never heard before. Was magical.
It doesn’t take too many songs that Angelina does before you’re hooked. It’s quite a wonderful addiction. Looking forward to more of your reactions to Angelina. Btw, I really like the way you do your reactions.
We understand you getting lost in her vocal and falling into a little trance. It's what she does. She puts so much detail into every line that you hang on every word to not miss a thing. ...and then she somehow makes it so effortless, so natural, so organic that you sometimes forget you are even listening, and you just fall right into the beautiful world she is painting with her voice. The stuff she is doing here... it just can't be taught to someone, she was born with it. Now that you have vowed to listen to everything she has done, you should know... it is a lot.. and every single thing you see is going to blow you away. I also forgot to leave you this little bio on your first reaction so I will just drop it here. I think the more you learn about her, the more you are going to appreciate how special she is..... *Angelina Jordan* - Angelina Jordan was born Jan 10 2006 in Oslo, Norway. She is currently 14 - She began singing at the age of one and a half - At 2 or 3 she discovered Jazz through her grandmother and started studying all the greats from Jazz history with youtube videos. - *Why Angelina always sings barefoot* - When Angelina was 6 years old, she was traveling with her grandmother and met a poor girl with no shoes trying to make money on the streets. They talked for a while and discussed their dreams. It was cold and the girl had scars on her feet. Seeing this, Angelina took off her shoes and gave them to the girl. The girl thanked her and told Angelina she would pray for her every day. That day Angelina made a vow to always sing barefoot until all the children of the world could have shoes. To this day, whenever Angelina is performing in public, she sings barefoot as a way to remember that little girl and to remind us that there are less fortunate people in the world that could use our help. Angelina holds so true to this promise that she has sung outdoors in Norway, in december... barefoot. She has sung at a dinner with ex-pres Obama... barefoot. She went on AGT (possibly the biggest stage in the world)...bare foot. She made a promise at 6 years old, and has stuck strong to it for years. That takes a special kind of person. - She has always been the driving force behind her own singing career. It was her that asked her mother to take her to Norways Got Talent, where she auditioned at 7 years old and went on to win the whole show at just 8 years old. - In an interview after the show, when asked what she was going to do with the prize money, the 8 year old replied, "I would like to give it to orphans that need clothes and shoes" - When Angelina was 9 years old she became the youngest published author in Norway, when she wrote a book about the story of why she doesn't wear shoes when she sings. She donated proceeds from the sales of the book to help children in need. - The reason you may not have heard of her is because her parents are very protective of her childhood. After she won NGT, they did not want her to be thrust into stardom before she had a chance to grow up as a normal child, and get her education. They allowed her to do a few select shows (mainly private and charity events) with a couple public shows every year when she is out of school. Her mother said in an interview that they have turned down 90% of the offers that came in. Over the years since NGT, they have turned down offers from many major record labels and even disney. - Angelina has covered more than 130 songs and over 65 artists in the last 6 years. She always selects the songs herself... everything ranging from old classic jazz to modern pop. She is able to change her voice to match any song she sings and make it her own. (she can cover Amy Winehouse and Lana del Rey like nobody else) - Angelina has collaborated with some very big names over the last few years... Quincy Jones, Mark Ronson, David Foster, Alan Walker and many more. All of which heard her and were blown away by her talent. - Angelina has written four of her own original songs: "What is Life", "Shield", "Oslo", and "Million Miles" (all are amazing...all can be found on youtube) In summary, Angelina Jordan is destined to be one of the greatest singers to have ever lived. This is just my opinion, but if you listen closely to any of her stuff you will hear the greatness. She sings with a natural style. There is no acting, no showing off, there are no unnecessary runs, or big belty notes just for the purpose of saying "hey look at me sing". She once said "when I sing I go into a beautiful world in my head", and you can always hear the results of that. When Angelina sings it is pure soul, pure emotion, pure music. Update: On Aug 26, 2020 Angelina's Manager/Uncle announced in an interview that they have decided on Republic Records as the best fit for Angelina and she is now signed with them as their "highest priority new artist". On Nov 6 she has released her first single under Republic... "Million Miles"! She has done so much already, but at 14 she is just getting started!!!
This is my second experience with your Angelina two-viewing-reviews and VERY MUCH enjoy this. It has me wondering, "Gee - he's going to run across some of her songs with two different performances. I wonder if Barry will do both songs in one of his videos, and luxuriate in those?" Examples... SUMMERTIME (TV version at age 7 with canned music but a live trumpet player versus her 9/10 year old's version with a live orchestra; or FEELING GOOD with the TV studio's sassy brass band or in this same park-festival setting with a rock band).
Barry, hello there🙌. I'm so pleased you 'reacted' to this song as it is one of my go to songs of hers when I need to feel cherished and it's also as you can imagine , one of the favourite staples of many AJ fans You say you want to react to ALL her works, well, you are in for a treat !! There's over 130 of them catalogued by Rusty Shackleford (lives & breathes Angelina ) in chronological order..Any songs of that list you pick is an absolute winner in my opinion but to get an idea on where the phenomenon first began or was first viewed world wide, you need to start at her audition in Norway's Got Talent at age 7 years old !! Your first reaction 'Summertime' was her winning song . I look forward to your discovery journey of our girl as a new subscriber to your channel and I will specially look out for your reaction when you do the black and white version of ' I Put a Spell on You :'(9 years old paying homage to the original artist Screaming Jay Hawkins)_ Lucky for us viewers you go through videos twice because her performance will leave you truly dumbfounded and awestruck. Most reactors are in a state of paralysis and can only mumble something like 'wow,' and more wows...😀 So good luck &I look forward to hearing your next installment of our girl. MERRY CHRISTMAS 🎅
Since you are now looking at her earlier years, you should watch Angelina's Gloomy Sunday and Bang Bang at Norway Got Talent. Gloomy Sunday is most adorable.
This is probably my favourite from those 7-8 years. And Bang bang. What never ceases to amaze me, and I am sensitive to this as a former drummer, is her insanely sophisticated sense of rhythm and timing. This song can be sung with practically every note hitting an upbeat or downbeat. I’m not sure if Angelina hit any. She was early, she was late, she would tease us as she dragged into a note, she made up her own syncopations, and she did it all, effortlessly, with that perfectly smooth delivery, never seeming forced as if the words kind of floated along above the instrumentals, connected by gossamer threads with little silver dotted quarter notes and diamond-encrusted beamed eighth notes dangling from them. Or something like that. Seriously, that’s the best way I can describe the image in my head when I actually pay attention to this stuff while she’s singing. Much better to let go and enjoy. 😐 She does similar things melodically. She can easily hit a note bang on if he needs to, and does so with shockingly impeccable pitch for anyone, never mind an EIGHT year old!! As you noted, she can also dance lightly above the pitch, gliding from note to note. The fact that she can do either of the things with her level of sophistication is a bloody Christmas miracle. The fact that she can do both at the same time is unthinkable. And yet here we are here watching it happen 6 years later. And being overwhelmed by hallucinations of gossamer and silver and diamonds. It good that you are trying to make peace between Angelina’s Angels and Dimash’s... fans (sorry, didn’t catch their handle). You could do a great service to mankind. Nobel Peace Prize worthy. And Angelina can perform at the ceremony like she did for Malala and Kailash Satyarthi in 2018.
I thought I was the only one who noticed about the timing and the other but it all comes together so beautifully it works. Even when there is a crack in her voice. Someone once said even her imperfections are perfection. Truer words were never spoken. Just like what you said about diamonds and gossamer threads. How poetically you put it. When I pointed out a mistake in timing or pitch to my sister who is also an Angelina fan, she wisely replied, oh, but was it a mistake? We laughed and agreed that she was right. Lol.
The BEST part of your reaction (and I say this in ONLY the best way), is that you are so astounded with her talent (exactly as I am) that even in your "analysis" portion of the video, you just basically listen to her entire performance again without saying anything, because she has the ability to simply "captivate" with her magnificence at the age of EIGHT! They should just eliminate the definitions from beside the word "talent" in all dictionaries, and substitute those eradicated definitions with pictures of an 8-year-old Angelina Jordan! Lol.
Certainly the tone of her voice, vocal fry, and vibrato are "god given" gifts. And they are gifts she has worked very hard to perfect. But the phrasing, back phrasing, negative space, and jazz vibe, are all things she has learned and been practicing since she was younger that two. She listens over and over to Billie, Ella, Etta, Dinah (originator of this song), Amy, Elvis, Adele, et.al. Since that very young age she has embraced her "calling", with focus, determination, and dedication. While the talent she was given is certainly unique and important, what she has done to direct and perfect it is equally, if not more important. Angelina is one-of-a-kind. There simply is no one out there like her. But lets give credit where credit is do---she Earned it! I love your reactions to the Fabulous Angelina. And as a loyal subscriber, I'm look forward to many more. Best wishes Barry. 💕💕
Well said. Talent and skill like this take work, and she deserves all that's hopefully coming to her. But there is something else, the warmth and heartfelt emotion you can't learn or fake.
Aside from the age, amazement, and song choices its the color of her voice that makes my ears happy. Not metaphorically-actual fact. She could sing gibberish and still get a Grammy.
Highly empathetic little girl who can feel the music AND with the courage and will of a lion to craft her own version of these iconic songs. She knows what she wants. This is intentional. She is not a puppet.
i would think you would want to see her older self by now. Her most recent work is her original song Million Miles, released a few weeks ago & is the 1st under her new label, Republic Records. It's written to her Grandpa who passed a year ago, but she said it's for anyone who has lost a loved one. It's beautiful & very emotional, but you don't see her. It's a beautifully animated lyric video based on artwork from Angelina & her artist Grandma, Mery Zamini. ua-cam.com/video/NhKRh5ZtuWk/v-deo.html However, if you want to see her sing, then her 3 performances on AGT-The Champions 2020, are her most recent. They were prerecorded in Oct 2019 when she was 13 & aired on TV in Jan-Feb 2020. She turns 15 on Jan 10, 2021. Her arrangement skills are genius, so see what she did to Queen's iconic song, Bohemian Rhapsody. She is now a 6 ft tall Superstar who could easily be a Supermodel, as well. Most links to this performance cuts the best part at the end, so please use this complete version. ua-cam.com/video/NhKRh5ZtuWk/v-deo.html BTW, I really enjoy your reactions & can't wait for the next one.
Well that’s it, I’m hooked!
I will be reacting to every song she has ever and will ever perform. I hope you’ll join me on my journey by subscribing. If you would like to support my channel by PayPal or Bitcoin please use the email in THIS videos description for all the details.

By the way, I don't believe you. You're not hooked. Not yet. I think all of the AJ fans are thinking, "Oh... you ain't seen/heard nuthin' yet." All of us are waiting for you to do one certain number.
Why not start with "I Put a Spell on You" (B&W version, 9 y.o) and then "Feeling good", the latter performance is from the same place as the "What a different a day make" was done, Fredrikstens fästning (fortress) in the city of Halden near the Swedish border. I believe it's recorded one year later than "What a different a day make" but others may know better(?). BTW the fortress is the place where the most famous king of Sweden (Karl XII) was killed in an effort to attack Norway 1718.

@@jonaslarsson6078 Actually Jonas the "All Sang pa grensen" performance was prior to the "LIVE on The Stream Gir Tilbake" performance. The All Sang performance was posted on UA-cam in 6/2016 and the "LIVE on The Stream Gir Tilbake" performance was posted in 1/2017, but took place 1 month earlier.
Another ANGELina Angel have SUBscribed.
Maybe you should follow Rusty Shacklefords cronological list, maybe, or at least look at it, so you know what's what and when? ^^
the beginning is "I who have nothing, she was 6 yrs, and trying out her singing in a studio... think it had something to do with her school. anyways, adorable. After that song, the list playlist should appear on the right in cronological order (age and performance) fyi ;)

Hello, Barry! Love you reactions to Angelina! She's now 17 and she is going to have her first USA Concert Sep 22, 2023, in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, in The Historic Theater at The Music Hall. The sitting capacity is 895 and so it will be a very intimate affair. She has an EP out featuring 6 songs from her new album (all original music) and perhaps the album will be officially introduced at the time of her Concert.
To say the least I am very excited about going and I hope they sell smelling salt at the concession area because I'm afraid half the audience is going to faint when she first appears on stage! (No lie!) She graduated secondary school in June and it has been determined by her and her very loving family it's time to shift gears and now go forward, full steam ahead, to bring her career to new depths. New depths? That everyone in the world will know who Angelina Jordan is and the love in her heart will touch everyone. Incredible? Barry, we are so fortunate she is amongst us and the love which is in the air is a two way street. She truly loves us and we love her very much and want her to know if she ever has a moment where she needs strength we will always be there to give her comfort.
Hope you are well. Barry, you have some of that same magic as Angelina and it can be defined as being a good soul, a caring human being, and the feeling we get when we see people like the both of you is very genuine. Take care.
I also really think she is the empress of Jazz hands down.
Looking forward to more reactions!
ANGELINA ...👏👏👏👏👏
After all these years still my favorite. The vibrato the masterful phrasing just incredible.
Thank you for recognizing pure true talent.
Hope you will do many more of her.
Thanks so much for your informative and enthusiastic reaction to Angelina..much has been written below..I just want to add two things,,.whilst her talent is god given the work she puts into her craft even from a young age is remarkable! Also, are you aware of her humanitarian side? She's already raised millions for charity and has pledged to use her gift to help others and help alleviate suffering..she's a special person ...)) thank you 🙏
ABSOLUTELY SPEECHLESS........ from the first moment her MOTHER INTRODUCED ANGELINA JORDAN TO THE WORLD....AN ABSOLUTE ANGEL SENT FROM OUR ALMIGHTY FATHER 🙏....✌️❤️🤗☮️ PEACE LOVE HAPPINESS 🇺🇸🦅🌎✝️🌹
You’re very good, Barry! Thanks!
Angelina is the singing Emotional Atomic Bomb , and she just blows our mind away to a state of of hypnotic bliss and the best most can utter is just to say Wow! Wow! Wow!
What a marvelous review.
Thank you for airing the beautiful work of Angelina Jordan Astar. Her name itself says it all . What a treasure for the world, coming from a child, so we have a lifetime to hear her Amazing God given gift to all.
Barry is in LOVE!!!!!! Join the throngs of angels. Angelina IS music. Only 130 more songs to react to.
Totally incredible! I've been hooked since I heard her first performance!
Not to mention, her timing is impeccable !
Hello Barry!! First time that I have seen Angelina Jordan. How does she fit that big voice in there?! Amazing! Thanks, mate!
I could listen to this over and over again, amazing. What a talent.
Absolutely amazing
If I close my eyes she’s transport me to a decade of 50’s or 60’s! Is a massage for my soul!
I love her!
I agree 100%. I've been following her for about 5 years, and I'm still amazed every time I hear her sing. The emotion that she displays, she should know nothing of at her age, yet no matter what it is, I smile or I cry from the joy or the sadness. She truly is a gift from God, and I am so happy that she pestered her mother at 7 years old to be on "Norway's Got Talent". You still have so many songs to react to, and each one is wonderful in it's own way. There are a couple that stand out more than others, in my opinion, and the one that Angelina's fans always look forward to, is her black and white video of Screaming Jay Hawkins original 1956 "I Put A Spell On You", when she was 9 years old. The other is her rendition of Queens, "Bohemian Rhapsody" at 13 years old on America's Got Talent: The Champions 2. No matter where you go, I'm along for the journey, as I just love watching people discovering this amazing young lady. (she will be 15 on Jan 10)
Love your reaction/review. Thank you so much. 🤗
Love this performance she is fantastic she truly love's singing. Great reaction Thank you Please keep them coming.
Barry, I am so happy you have found Angelina! Hooked, you are! She touches our heart when she sings and our heart will not let her go. She is impossible to resist. I look forward to all your Angelina reactions. Barry, her goal is to spread love to the world through her music. Amen.
Barry, it's now June 3, 2023, and Angelina is 17 and going strong. She is graduating from secondary school this month and a new album (all original music!) is coming out soon, probably to coincide with a worldwide tour of sorts. Last summer she performed a series of Concerts in Norway and people from all over the world attended because they couldn't pass up the opportunity to see her perform live. Within the past month she has introduced one of the songs from the album, 'Love Don't Let Me Go', and it is doing very well globally. It is a catchy number and is getting the attention of the younger audience. There was a concern her fan base had an average age of 50 because of all the covers she does and the element of jazz but that is all changing now and Barry, her popularity will soar to heights unimaginable. Do we expect all the new people coming aboard to react any differently than we did when we discovered her? Of course their brains will not be able to figure out what is going on when they listen to her sing FOR THEM (she sings FOR people, not to people) but their hearts will hear within seconds the love in her voice and the door to their hearts will open wide to let her in. They will get goosebumps, start to tear up (with the urge to cry) and find it difficult to string words together to make intelligent sentences during or right after she sings. She remains humble, kind, caring and loving and I believe she will touch everyone in the world with her love. Barry, the more everyone finds out 'who she is' makes it very evident she is much, much more than a wonderful singer.
I will always stop by to say hello to you and I hope you are well. Or, as we say in New York, "How ya doin'?" Why do I get the feeling you are in demand to sing for people who adore you. Yes? Barry, the love pours out of you when you sing, as well.
She IS jazz for me..of course I love the greats but Angelina has a special place in my heart..I feel blessed to have discovered her )) Great reaction Barry..thank you ))
Barry, as you progress through her repertoire of songs you will notice that when the performance really grabs her and she is possessed by the song, her eyes close and her head sways. Doesn't matter if she is sitting on her couch or performing with an orchestra. Sometimes she is experimenting and it is still remarkable but those times she inhabits the song are magic. Grab your heart and make you catch your breath. This girl is a gift to us. I say thank you every time l hear her.
Thank you, your are enjoyable to listen to. Angelina is the best. If you love PTX, try Home Free (country with a twist).
so - thanks a billion again...
Barry, as I never subscribe at the first video it is rare that I subscribe at the seconde - like with you... ;-) I hope to see more and more and more reaction videos from you with AJ songs - and I hope not only one per week....
Best wishes, slan
Andreas
When she closes her eyes, you can see she's feeling the song. She was brought up in a household full of the old jazz masters. It's the only music she enjoyed while little and absorbed all of the technique used by Billie, Ella, Sara ]h Vaughn and others. Now she covers Adele, Queen, Whitney Houston, John Legend and many others. She makes every cover her very own. The ANgelina Jordon Cover Channel has had over 36 million views.
1000s of people and she sings like she is off in another world by herself.
Nerves of steel and pure confidence.
If their wasn't video you would not believe she exists. Pure perfection.
This song was my intro to this prodigy....I have been entranced ever since and listen to her almost every day. You sir do her justice with an honest and direct reaction.
This is my favorite Angelina song. It's so stunning, and so simple. No need for dramatic effects and pyrotechnics. Just heart, and pure music. As PinkLemonTV says, she's "amazingly amazing." I look forward to seeing you react to her later songs, like "Still Holding Out for You" and "All of Me" and... well, everything.
Hi Barry, that was a wonderfully fun reaction & review of Angie. Thank you so much. Your fun to watch when your doing Angie songs. Welcome to the world of Angelina’s music. Angie takes covers & Angelinalizes them & they become new. She chooses, & does all her own arrangements ever since she was very young, even when she did “Screaming Jay Hawkins “I put a spell on you” ua-cam.com/video/nwFloCPXzCs/v-deo.html at age barely 9, if you react to this be ready for a major Roller Coaster ride. She also paints, plays 4 instruments & speaks & sings 4+ languages, English being her 3rd or 4th. Angie turned 14 on 1-10-20. Angie is a very kind, giving, loving, respectful, & big hearted Christian girl. She always sings barefoot when performing & she wrote a book about it at 9 called “Between Two Worlds”, others will explain this or you can look it up. When you listen to Angie there are a few of her songs you'll need a box of tissues & you can even pause (blow nose) & start filming again. I'll give you a link to her 1st released single by Republic records titled “Million Miles” She wrote this shortly after her grandpa (mom’s dad) died in Nov. 2019, she was 13 than she sang it at 14. Angie & her grandma did the art for the video. Angelina said, “This song is dedicated to anyone who has lost a loved one. I wrote this song thinking about all the great memories I had with my grandpa and how much it hurts to lose someone. I hope this song finds a place in you heart, as it comes straight from mine”. Stargate producer singer/songwriter Dakota posted on her instagram regarding the collaboration with Angie, said “This girls talent is freakin insane.”
(I do hope you buy & download her single & help support her art & music)

Angelina is one of the most addictive singers I have ever listened to, & one of the very few, that can pull you right into the song, making you feel, every word, every note, & every emotion. ❤️💙 I always have this feeling that Angelina is not only channeling some of these late great singers, but that they also pass through her, when she is singing their song ❤️💙 A rare beauty, in every sense of the word ❤️💙 Whether you are a believer in reincarnation or not, I find it very intriguing that Lou Rawls, the American Jazz & blues singer legend, passed away the same day Angelina is born 😊 Loved your reaction & commentary!!!
I am so excited to take that journey with you. Love your reaction. Will follow you on other artist as well She is so amazing as I know you will have ahead, chills, amazement, tears, goosebumps and so much more. Have fun, I will be there. : )
👩🏻🎤🎵🌎⭐️🇳🇴❤️ Thanks Barry for another wonderful Angelina reaction. You have embarked on a magical journey full of surprises and enchanting performances. I've subscribed, and I look forward to your next Angelina reaction.
Pitch perfect. Timing perfect. She arranges her performances at a certain point, better than anyone else could do for her. Stunning.
Barry, never mind the technicalities, she's gotten to you too and I saw those tears you swallowed......I cry when I hear her ......all the time, unashamed and happy
She puts goosebumps on your goosebumps. She’s a child prodigy. Like Mozart. She was rehearsing with an orchestra in one video and she corrected their timing, in the most inoffensive way possible of course!
I am delighted to hear you love Angelina. As your other viewer said to me, you now have the trinity of talent in your hands with Angelina, Dimash and Pentatonix. It is lovely to see you react so openly and be lost for words at the amazing talent.
Bless you lots,
Easter
You said it Barry, Voice that carries emotions of experience WAY beyond her age. Her voice is amazing. like some blues singer's spirit took over her body and sang THROUGH her.
She can take on any song and she smashss everyone of them
bernie Which is why some call her "the songrighter".
Looking away from the extraordinary voice and technique she is showing I am just blown away by the emotion she put into her rendition of this song. And that in the age of eight...just fenomenal!
Sometimes confusion is a good thing! Go Angelina Jordan!!!!!
You will have many more great experiences reviewing Angelina...
She was born to sing, yes, with that God given talent. I have already listened to everything I could find so decided to subscribe since you seem to enjoy her as much as I have. Great job Barry if you can call it a job. Thumbs up sir, until next time.
🙂👍🇩🇰.... she is going to be shining through out her singing life.... she is one of a kind!! ♥️🎄🎄 Would love to hear you sing Barry!!! 😉
Already subscribed Barry so keep it going. Loving your reactions to our Angel.
She got you! We understand. This will be a fun journey filled with awe and amazement. You will be speechless again. Lots of smiles, a few tears, some head shaking. Hold on tight. Her fans are on board.
We sure are 😁
Yea we are!
So we are
Hola Barri que linda voz tiene esta bellísima niña guauuuu Espectacular me encanta ♥️ Barri desde mi país España te mando un cordial saludo bendiciones 🙏
Angelina is a gift from the Universe to calm a chaotic world❤
Barry, in my opinion, you don’t listen to an Angelina performance. You experience it. I have never been more profoundly emotionally affected by a young singer as I have been with Angelina. There are not enough adjectives to describe the all consuming visceral experience I feel when listening to this incredibly and uniquely gifted young child. Her performances are absolutely breath taking, stunning and captivating. There is a common denominator with all of her live performances and that is other than claps and cheers you don’t hear a peep coming from the audience. They are all hypnotized and wholly fixated on every word and syllable that comes from Angelina’s voice. I thank God I discovered Angelina. She is like a drug. We keep wanting more and she always delivers.
She is amazing 😱😱😱
For years i regretted being born too late. Missing Ella, Nina, and Billie live . But now we have Angelina, and she’s just getting started. Her voice is beyond captivating. Her delivery comes from the ages and her lows are smokey lush pancakes of sound. Fecking buttery!
Yea now we wish we were younger so we can grow old with Angelina. Her star will be shining brightest hopefully before I'm gone.
Thank you Thank you for this reaction and review, which I think you will find Angelina fans will love what you are doing just as much as I love it. I have followed you through most of your videos and was patiently requesting Angelina, ok ok so I was not so patient, yes I was pestering, but I knew you would love her, and with your style of doing reactions and reviews, it was perfect. I know you have lots of requests, but I think I will request "I Put A Spell On You" Black and White version at 9 years old, it is kind of an initiation of sorts to new reactors and it will draw even more fans than you have now. It is definitely a different side of Angelina that comes out every once in a while. Also when you get 30k which will be soon hoping you will sing us a song, I know it will be great. Hope Your Christmas season is wonderful, oh and Angelina does have a few Christmas songs "White Christmas 2016 version (live)" (there is a younger one but she has a bad cold) and "Mary's Boy Child" but it is audio.
Perfect syncopation!! She is a natural jazz singer. I expect her to be quite a scatter as well.
It bears mentioning that in this venue AJ is on tiny stage a dozen meters or more from her backup singers and a dozen more (at least) from the band..talk about being on an island. Yet the 8yo Angelina is utterly unfazed by this, is completely at ease, closes her eyes most of the time and takes us all on a journey to her special singing place. Wow.
Yes, as you say, she dominates any jazz composition she touches but her versatility to perform other genres is equally impressive (if that can be possible). You will see. Keep going and Merry Christmas!
Yes, Barry, she does have jazz in her blood a God given talent indeed. I have had the fortune of coming across Angelina when surfing the internet for great talent worldwide 5 years ago. That’s when I discovered Dimash and over time these two are my all time favorites. It’s been a pleasure seeing your lovely reaction to the enormous talent before us. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and sense of humor. You have another Dear, Barry. Great entertainment. Keep it up 👍, mate.🙃🤪🥰🌿🌿🎶🎶🤣🙏🕊🤗😻
Angelina always puts an extra of feelings in her interpretations. She does this with every single word what makes her singing so special (beside all the technical stuff).
Thank you for your reaction and welcome to the rabbit hole 😆
Happens to the best of us! 😂 Once you've heard Angelina sing, you're forever hooked!
The thing with her is not that she has an amazing voice, cuteness overload when she was young and beautiful young lady now.
There's a quality in the way she sings, like you said the emotion she puts in every word, that it grabs you and goes straight to your heart.
By the way, I really like your approach to the reaction: listening, reviewing, final thoughts (if you can manage some, lol)
See you in the next one ;)
The journey with Angelina is the most soul satisfying journey you will ever take.
100%
Kenny ... Beautiful statement.
Amazing to see a young girl with adult backup singers, Makes me smile every time.
At this age she knows three languages and English is not primary.
I miss ya ! I have not seen new reactions but then my old acct was hacked. Glad I found you again. You are a joy to watch. I hope and pray you are doing well.
She is so sweet. Almost like, "It would be a thrill for me to sing for you"
Not a hint of pride or ego.
Your reactions are very entertaining,much more refreshing than just the oohs and awws of many reactors.Of course with this artist you have great material to work with.
Dear Barry ☘️ that voice can’t possibly come out of that little Angelina! I see a dark smoky gin joint and a weary chanteuse with a cigarette in hand singing to an even wearier crowd. Angelina’s talent astounds me, she’s a jazz baby. What style! Please, more of this little Angel.
Thank you for this wonderful video🤗
Gloomy Sunday and Bang Bang you shot me down, also from Norways got talent, please check them out amazing performances. Great reaction Barry 💚
Great reaction! When it comes to Angelina, the first word that comes to me is "reincarnation". There's no doubt in my mind that an old soul lives within this gift from the heavens we've been given. She is the catalyst that is creating interest in this music from a bygone era, and that includes many of today's younger generation. Will it make a comeback? Only time will tell.
Barry, when are you going to sing something for us?? I mean a whole song! Yes, Angelina is amazing, but it would be just as amazing to hear you. Please please please?
I’ve been in a trance for three years now! Great reaction! Looking forward for more!
As a fun exercise, I began writing down my favorite Angelina songs on a single space yellow notebook. I ran out of paper before I ran out of songs.
I agree. It's hard to find words ... What should you really say? Other than experiencing this phenomenon that we are so lucky to experience. All jazz legends gathered in one little girl
"Feeling good" , at the age of 10 😊
Welcome to the world of Angelina Jordan. She has been described as a once in a lifetime talent and even as a once in a thousand years talent.. She will thrill and amaze you no matter the song, the genre or her age at the time she isn performing. She has over 100 videos, including four of her original songs on UA-cam so you have your work cut out for you to get through them all.....you better get started right away. I have signed on to share your journey. Tighten your seat belts...as they say.... "You ain't seen nothing yet!".
Wow. She makes a person reassess their judgment on reincarnation. If anyone can be reborn again, this lovely girl was. I remember her being on America's Got Talent, the Champions, but she was older. And, BARRY...She sang Bohemian Rhapsody in a way you've never heard before. Was magical.
It doesn’t take too many songs that Angelina does before you’re hooked. It’s quite a wonderful addiction. Looking forward to more of your reactions to Angelina. Btw, I really like the way you do your reactions.
We understand you getting lost in her vocal and falling into a little trance. It's what she does. She puts so much detail into every line that you hang on every word to not miss a thing. ...and then she somehow makes it so effortless, so natural, so organic that you sometimes forget you are even listening, and you just fall right into the beautiful world she is painting with her voice. The stuff she is doing here... it just can't be taught to someone, she was born with it. Now that you have vowed to listen to everything she has done, you should know... it is a lot.. and every single thing you see is going to blow you away.
I also forgot to leave you this little bio on your first reaction so I will just drop it here.
I think the more you learn about her, the more you are going to appreciate how special she is.....
*Angelina Jordan*
- Angelina Jordan was born Jan 10 2006 in Oslo, Norway. She is currently 14
- She began singing at the age of one and a half
- At 2 or 3 she discovered Jazz through her grandmother and started studying all the greats from Jazz history with youtube videos.
- *Why Angelina always sings barefoot* - When Angelina was 6 years old, she was traveling with her grandmother and met a poor girl with no shoes trying to make money on the streets. They talked for a while and discussed their dreams. It was cold and the girl had scars on her feet. Seeing this, Angelina took off her shoes and gave them to the girl. The girl thanked her and told Angelina she would pray for her every day. That day Angelina made a vow to always sing barefoot until all the children of the world could have shoes. To this day, whenever Angelina is performing in public, she sings barefoot as a way to remember that little girl and to remind us that there are less fortunate people in the world that could use our help.
Angelina holds so true to this promise that she has sung outdoors in Norway, in december... barefoot. She has sung at a dinner with ex-pres Obama... barefoot. She went on AGT (possibly the biggest stage in the world)...bare foot. She made a promise at 6 years old, and has stuck strong to it for years. That takes a special kind of person.
- She has always been the driving force behind her own singing career. It was her that asked her mother to take her to Norways Got Talent, where she auditioned at 7 years old and went on to win the whole show at just 8 years old.
- In an interview after the show, when asked what she was going to do with the prize money, the 8 year old replied, "I would like to give it to orphans that need clothes and shoes"
- When Angelina was 9 years old she became the youngest published author in Norway, when she wrote a book about the story of why she doesn't wear shoes when she sings. She donated proceeds from the sales of the book to help children in need.
- The reason you may not have heard of her is because her parents are very protective of her childhood. After she won NGT, they did not want her to be thrust into stardom before she had a chance to grow up as a normal child, and get her education. They allowed her to do a few select shows (mainly private and charity events) with a couple public shows every year when she is out of school. Her mother said in an interview that they have turned down 90% of the offers that came in. Over the years since NGT, they have turned down offers from many major record labels and even disney.
- Angelina has covered more than 130 songs and over 65 artists in the last 6 years. She always selects the songs herself... everything ranging from old classic jazz to modern pop. She is able to change her voice to match any song she sings and make it her own. (she can cover Amy Winehouse and Lana del Rey like nobody else)
- Angelina has collaborated with some very big names over the last few years... Quincy Jones, Mark Ronson, David Foster, Alan Walker and many more. All of which heard her and were blown away by her talent.
- Angelina has written four of her own original songs: "What is Life", "Shield", "Oslo", and "Million Miles" (all are amazing...all can be found on youtube)
In summary, Angelina Jordan is destined to be one of the greatest singers to have ever lived. This is just my opinion, but if you listen closely to any of her stuff you will hear the greatness. She sings with a natural style. There is no acting, no showing off, there are no unnecessary runs, or big belty notes just for the purpose of saying "hey look at me sing". She once said "when I sing I go into a beautiful world in my head", and you can always hear the results of that. When Angelina sings it is pure soul, pure emotion, pure music.
Update: On Aug 26, 2020 Angelina's Manager/Uncle announced in an interview that they have decided on Republic Records as the best fit for Angelina and she is now signed with them as their "highest priority new artist". On Nov 6 she has released her first single under Republic... "Million Miles"! She has done so much already, but at 14 she is just getting started!!!
And here is the her-storyteller ^^
Hi, Rusty o/
looks like she snagged another one Rusty... LOL
This is my second experience with your Angelina two-viewing-reviews and VERY MUCH enjoy this. It has me wondering, "Gee - he's going to run across some of her songs with two different performances. I wonder if Barry will do both songs in one of his videos, and luxuriate in those?" Examples... SUMMERTIME (TV version at age 7 with canned music but a live trumpet player versus her 9/10 year old's version with a live orchestra; or FEELING GOOD with the TV studio's sassy brass band or in this same park-festival setting with a rock band).
Barry, hello there🙌. I'm so pleased you 'reacted' to this song as it is one of my go to songs of hers when I need to feel cherished and it's also as you can imagine , one of the favourite staples of many AJ fans You say you want to react to ALL her works, well, you are in for a treat !! There's over 130 of them catalogued by Rusty Shackleford (lives & breathes Angelina ) in chronological order..Any songs of that list you pick is an absolute winner in my opinion but to get an idea on where the phenomenon first began or was first viewed world wide, you need to start at her audition in Norway's Got Talent at age 7 years old !! Your first reaction 'Summertime' was her winning song . I look forward to your discovery journey of our girl as a new subscriber to your channel and I will specially look out for your reaction when you do the black and white version of ' I Put a Spell on You :'(9 years old paying homage to the original artist Screaming Jay Hawkins)_ Lucky for us viewers you go through videos twice because her performance will leave you truly dumbfounded and awestruck. Most reactors are in a state of paralysis and can only mumble something like 'wow,' and more wows...😀 So good luck &I look forward to hearing your next installment of our girl. MERRY CHRISTMAS 🎅
Since you are now looking at her earlier years, you should watch Angelina's Gloomy Sunday and Bang Bang at Norway Got Talent. Gloomy Sunday is most adorable.
This is probably my favourite from those 7-8 years. And Bang bang. What never ceases to amaze me, and I am sensitive to this as a former drummer, is her insanely sophisticated sense of rhythm and timing. This song can be sung with practically every note hitting an upbeat or downbeat. I’m not sure if Angelina hit any. She was early, she was late, she would tease us as she dragged into a note, she made up her own syncopations, and she did it all, effortlessly, with that perfectly smooth delivery, never seeming forced as if the words kind of floated along above the instrumentals, connected by gossamer threads with little silver dotted quarter notes and diamond-encrusted beamed eighth notes dangling from them.
Or something like that.
Seriously, that’s the best way I can describe the image in my head when I actually pay attention to this stuff while she’s singing. Much better to let go and enjoy. 😐
She does similar things melodically. She can easily hit a note bang on if he needs to, and does so with shockingly impeccable pitch for anyone, never mind an EIGHT year old!! As you noted, she can also dance lightly above the pitch, gliding from note to note. The fact that she can do either of the things with her level of sophistication is a bloody Christmas miracle. The fact that she can do both at the same time is unthinkable. And yet here we are here watching it happen 6 years later. And being overwhelmed by hallucinations of gossamer and silver and diamonds.
It good that you are trying to make peace between Angelina’s Angels and Dimash’s... fans (sorry, didn’t catch their handle). You could do a great service to mankind. Nobel Peace Prize worthy. And Angelina can perform at the ceremony like she did for Malala and Kailash Satyarthi in 2018.
I thought I was the only one who noticed about the timing and the other but it all comes together so beautifully it works.
Even when there is a crack in her voice. Someone once said even her imperfections are perfection. Truer words were never spoken. Just like what you said about diamonds and gossamer threads. How poetically you put it.
When I pointed out a mistake in timing or pitch to my sister who is also an Angelina fan, she wisely replied, oh, but was it a mistake? We laughed and agreed that she was right. Lol.
Barry 😀😊 another great analysis ❤🙆
The BEST part of your reaction (and I say this in ONLY the best way), is that you are so astounded with her talent (exactly as I am) that even in your "analysis" portion of the video, you just basically listen to her entire performance again without saying anything, because she has the ability to simply "captivate" with her magnificence at the age of EIGHT! They should just eliminate the definitions from beside the word "talent" in all dictionaries, and substitute those eradicated definitions with pictures of an 8-year-old Angelina Jordan! Lol.
Another great reaction to an unbelievable performance by AJ. Keep 'em coming!
Certainly the tone of her voice, vocal fry, and vibrato are "god given" gifts. And they are gifts she has worked very hard to perfect. But the phrasing, back phrasing, negative space, and jazz vibe, are all things she has learned and been practicing since she was younger that two. She listens over and over to Billie, Ella, Etta, Dinah (originator of this song), Amy, Elvis, Adele, et.al. Since that very young age she has embraced her "calling", with focus, determination, and dedication. While the talent she was given is certainly unique and important, what she has done to direct and perfect it is equally, if not more important. Angelina is one-of-a-kind. There simply is no one out there like her. But lets give credit where credit is do---she Earned it! I love your reactions to the Fabulous Angelina. And as a loyal subscriber, I'm look forward to many more. Best wishes Barry. 💕💕
Well said. Talent and skill like this take work, and she deserves all that's hopefully coming to her. But there is something else, the warmth and heartfelt emotion you can't learn or fake.
Yes this is the summer after she won NGT.
She is always amazing and mesmerizing.
Aside from the age, amazement, and song choices its the color of her voice that makes my ears happy. Not metaphorically-actual fact. She could sing gibberish and still get a Grammy.
I did say, on another video, she could sing the dictionary and it would be beautiful 🤩🤩
Highly empathetic little girl who can feel the music AND with the courage and will of a lion to craft her own version of these iconic songs. She knows what she wants. This is intentional. She is not a puppet.
You have a new subscriber, love your reaction!
4 thumbs down?
Excuse me this is amazing reaction to amazing singer
Great Reaction
Angelina turns emotion into a physical thing that squeezes your heart and soul.
On AGT at 13 years old she sang Bohemian Rhapsody. Really good. Loved her performance.
Замечательно , а эта хрипотца мммммм. Класс
I am so glad you have discovered Angelina our angel.❤🙏💯
i would think you would want to see her older self by now. Her most recent work is her original song Million Miles, released a few weeks ago & is the 1st under her new label, Republic Records. It's written to her Grandpa who passed a year ago, but she said it's for anyone who has lost a loved one. It's beautiful & very emotional, but you don't see her. It's a beautifully animated lyric video based on artwork from Angelina & her artist Grandma, Mery Zamini. ua-cam.com/video/NhKRh5ZtuWk/v-deo.html However, if you want to see her sing, then her 3 performances on AGT-The Champions 2020, are her most recent. They were prerecorded in Oct 2019 when she was 13 & aired on TV in Jan-Feb 2020. She turns 15 on Jan 10, 2021. Her arrangement skills are genius, so see what she did to Queen's iconic song, Bohemian Rhapsody. She is now a 6 ft tall Superstar who could easily be a Supermodel, as well. Most links to this performance cuts the best part at the end, so please use this complete version. ua-cam.com/video/NhKRh5ZtuWk/v-deo.html BTW, I really enjoy your reactions & can't wait for the next one.
Ill be with you watching your reactions to Angelina, every time you think you've heard it all she will surprise you!
Luv your reaction Barry .. it was great!
Angelina 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Not only Her country of Norway But A Global Treasure!!!
New subscriber, looking forward to other AJ reactions, so many for you to enjoy.
