I love how she undersells it, makes the breakout parts all the more stunning. Then there's that skat line in the middle and the tasty little jazzy improvisations. This track has got to get Grammy consideration.
We all would agree 100%. If you have seen the "Grammy's" in the last few years, really not about music artists anymore, a popularity contest now. Don't watch anymore. Grammy's cater to the MSM industry which assaults us with a lot of crap now days.
"Generational once in a lifetime talent". Amen! Five angels (myself included 🙂...with 200+ more angels watching by livestream) got to see Angelina perform this just last night (Oct 20) at the corner of Hollywood Blvd and Argyle Ave in LA, on a WishUSA bus (like a portable record studio). It was stunning standing a few feet away from her as the music was piped out to the sidewalk for us and some lucky wandering bystanders to be blown away.

@SteveAckerman-ly3qg I also think that since he works with and has worked with a lot of other artists he may not want to offend anyone. On a morning show last month, Victoria Justice was with him to promote Piano Diaries. At the end of the segment he promoted the upcoming release of Bad Valentine and Angelina’s concert. I thought that might have been a little awkward for Victoria Justice.
This takes me back to the comment you made that when you think you have heard it all---Angelina throws out something new. She did it in her recent concert with the Reggae, did "I'd Rather Go Blind" in a bluesy version with harmonica--it just never ends with her as I said this when her E.P. came out. She is the Christmas present that keeps on giving and never ends. Her versatility alone is just mind bending and she doesn't miss a beat. She covers her own song and makes 4 different versions, this one being radically different and they all sound awesome.
Absolutely agree ! This is the current queen of jazz delivering an iconic performance ! Her emotional vocal calling from her heart and soul just pulls at your heartstrings ! She is the supreme story teller ! I feel her every word and how it cuts so deeply ! This is by far one the very best from our beautiful barefoot princess ! Thank you for your wonderful reaction it was so much appreciated ! Take care and sending you love from Canada ! 👍🇨🇦🇨🇦❤️❤️❤️
She slows this down and make’s it even better! Those vocals just melt you like butter! Love it when she reaches into her toolbox and pulls out the full on Jazz! 💯🇳🇴🇺🇸 Watched on the live stream with Steve last night!
By far the best vocalist that I have heard in my lifetime (63 years), and certainly the most eloquent and sincere reactor! Thank you for this reaction. Britt, "Have the day that you deserve."
All versions of this song are brilliant, but this one is my favorite and I think you are correct this did feel like the woman Angelina Jordon, and also I have never heard anyone scat lyrics like that. This song gave me a actual thrill
My favorite song by my favorite all time singer, reacted to by my favorite all time reactor! Thank you! Let’s help her get that Emmy… download, stream, and purchase both releases of this great song!

I can’t wait for the day when AJ just cuts loose and goes full blown jazz, no holds barred. Another great reaction I was waiting for you to do this one. Thanks
I love both released versions. Each has a totally different feel so they are almost like two different songs. The chord structure of this version gives it such a melancholy vibe. I think we also need to give praise to Toby’s beautiful piano playing in this version. Not many mention that.
Britt, Toby Gad and Angelina Jordan breaking new ground in lyricism and musicality, captivating us seasoned blues and jazz lovers with this soul enriching/ soul piercing beauty.♾Rb
Great one Britt 🥰 , i really hope u get to experience her LIVE one day. Angelina❤ is something special when on stage, all the Angel's that have sen her LIVE would agree with me on that 😉😊👍 have a great day, take care an stay safe 😊
I absolutely agree, we are hearing the woman Angelina Jordan singing from her heart ❤️🔥 this Jazzy-soul is my favorite favorite from this Goddess of Jazzy-soul 🌞
Bellissima reazione con spiegazioni tecniche perfette,come sempre.Sono sempre più sbalordito da Angelina.Hai ragione, prima si potevano fare previsioni sulla grandezza di questa fuoriclasse del canto.Ora ci sono certezze assolute : Angelina è la più grande cantante di questo secolo.
"The woman, Angelina Jordan"... yes, Britt! Well said. It feels exactly like that. I've been following Angelina for 6/7 years now and she was always able to convey so much emotion in her performances because IMO she has that ability in her DNA. But now, having gone through some of those experiences herself, her delivery is even more profound. It's mind boggling she's still a very young woman/teenager, 18 years old, OMG. What's to come only God knows 😇🥰
She keeps coming our with her best performance, her best song, and somehow, it always seems to be her next. Just like us, we knew you would be blown away by this rendition. I would love to learn how it evolved to be what she finally made it, and with Angelina, I'm not sure there is such a thing as 'finally'.
Angelina knows how to make us feel the story! Here we get a different perspectives relative to the other versions. With the minimal instrumental backing the nuanced vocals come through strongly. Reminds me of the two versions of Cry me a River- 2017 jazz version and 2018 military band version....
That’s a bold statement Britt. I love this jazz version better also but do I think it’s AJ’s best vocal? I don’t know. Every song she sings is her best. Just until the next best comes along. My writing is not that great but I think you know what I mean. She is truly an amazing young lady with a voice of an angel ❤️❤️❤️❤️ excellent reaction Britt!
Great reaction, Britt. Her original version, to me, was sassy and spiteful, almost mean. In this jazzy version AJ is sad, plaintive and sorrowful that she had to be a Bad Valentine. The two versions are almost two different songs. I agree with you that this is her best musical artistry so far and my favorite. Thanks for all your excellent reactions.
Angelina covers Angelina and makes the song her own. You don’t have to like one better. You don’t have to choose. Different song, different attitude, different vibe. The first one: I told you so, it’s not my fault… This one: more nostalgia, less blame… Both are spectacular. This one might be AJ singing completely in her element, but I love that attitude in the first one.
wait to u hear her original THANK YOU has a reggae pop jazz feel how does she do it . a session musicisn singer songwriter resctor who traveled from england to glendale shoew said it should be a hit !!!
If this version doesn't bring on the best vocal gymnastics ever, I don't know what does,,,. She's gonna claim her throne with this. And forever reign. The barefoot Queen.
This is a prime example of how the subtext of a song speaks louder than the actual text. And, of course, Angelina's voice really brings that meaning to life.
I flat-out agree with EVERYTHING you said, Britt. It's the most perfect of her recordings so far and the most technically amazing since I Put A Spell On You.
This version has so much heartbreak and regret it breaks me every time I hear it. For me, this is the ONE. All the other versions are great too, but this is full of all the layers of breaking up. This is somehow is more tragic for both sides than the others. She uses all the tools in the box. It's an opera.
This is definitely my favorite song I've ever heard her sing. She emotes throughout the song. All her covers of other artists' songs leave me empty, with no emotion in her performance. She has the talent to sing all the notes, but does so without emoting. NOT the case with this song.
The original, recorded when she was 16, is what it was meant to be then, sass and empowerment. Two years of maturing and processing that horrible breakup and this is the version that is meant to be now- melancholy.
Angelina Jordan will eventually become the new Elvis not the new Amy. She has his looks, his charisma, his talent , his vocals, and she adores him as a idol. This song may be the one to shift her career into high gear.
IMO, Tobi knows and appreciates what discovering Angelina has done for him to fulfill his goal of reimagining his songs for his “Piano Diaries” album. Their collaboration in creating “Bad Valentine” is going to elevate their global presence, especially with Republic Records’ marketing and distribution prowess.
An emotional wonder 🤔 now looking back to the past in a melancholy Way 💕, today a powerful woman, the maneater 👠 and how will she be in the future 🙏😇? Don't forget what she always said "be kind to each other and spread Love 💕"
Creo que con ésta versión queda demostrado que Angelina es la mejor vocalista de la actualidad y la mejor que yo haya escuchado en mi vida. Angelina nace en el jazz sin dudas. Esta versión tiene elementos claros de Jazz, el piano, la ralentizacion y la improvisación. Algo admirable y que mencionaste es su capacidad de versionar su propia canción a otro género. De Angelina artisticamente ya no me sorprende nada de su capacidad como vocalista, pero el placer de escucharla cantar está siempre presente.
Wait, what? As an American man, my short sleeve shirt and maybe sometimes accidentally matching shorts don't stand up to Toby's European fashion sense? 😂 p.s. Agree, this is an absolute masterpiece of vocal performance. And since we know she works hard at learning and growing, I feel comfortable saying this is just the beginning.
Britney, this version is of someone. Trying to find out if the right thing. It’s with pain-filled. Regrets. Listen to that deep down painfulness coming up or out . That is the Signal and signature of Jazz. And a great Jazz moment by Angelina. .. This gives the opening for several groups young and old to gravitate to.
Hello Britt, how are you? A hug from the Brazilian nation. I reacted to Gabriel Henrique singing Vision of Love (Acoustic. He and his father on guitar, fantastic, thank you, kisses. Brazil loves you.
Inexplicable to me that AJ is not already much more famous . This sounds like a top notch singer at the peak of her career, clearly true except that she most likely is not at the very peak yet...she will have a very long career. What confidence!
I love how she undersells it, makes the breakout parts all the more stunning. Then there's that skat line in the middle and the tasty little jazzy improvisations. This track has got to get Grammy consideration.
We all would agree 100%. If you have seen the "Grammy's" in the last few years, really not about music artists anymore, a popularity contest now. Don't watch anymore. Grammy's cater to the MSM industry which assaults us with a lot of crap now days.
@leechap3 Too late for the 2025 Grammys but maybe a Best Jazz Vocal nomination for 2026.

Toby Gad calls her a once in a decade talent...I think he's selling her short...
@@1after909 I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt and say he's giving her room to improve, as scary a thought as that is!
I was one of the people watching the livestream. It was a great experience. Thanks for streaming it.

The Artist, The Woman..... Well said Brit.
I can go back and forth between this and the Hotel Cafe version (all the versions actually) depending on my mood.
To me, this just delivers the message of a love gone south, which I was amazed to find she wrote at 16, the Soul oozes out of this
This is pure fine Art ❤ she amazes us every Time with handcrafted Masterpieces like only Artists can do. This is Genius 😇
Britt, this is THE version! The others were great, but this one is beyond. Worthy of a jazz club in the 1950's. Really special.
By a long shot this version is my fave. So great to see you reacting to Angelina Angelinaing!
All versions of this song are brilliant, but this one is my favorite and I think you are correct this did feel like the woman Angelina Jordon, and also I have never heard anyone scat lyrics like that. This song gave me a actual thrill
This one , this is the one for me! Dripping with melancholy.

Love them both but this one is just a jazzy sultry AJ masterpiece can't get enough of it or her💜👣😇
I think you put into words succinctly what we all feel. This is a completely adult rendition of what Angelina has become. It is simply astonishing.
Angelina Jordan - The Barefoot Princess of Jazz - Best Jazz singer in the world. Best singer in the world. IMO ❤👣👸🏻🎷
I can’t wait for the day when AJ just cuts loose and goes full blown jazz, no holds barred. Another great reaction I was waiting for you to do this one. Thanks
So glad you caught this. My favorite version, and I love the others. Thank you.
Thanks for listening
Thanks Britt for a wonderful reaction to a superb performance by Angelina! Haunting and melancholic, just stunning.
I love both released versions. Each has a totally different feel so they are almost like two different songs.
The chord structure of this version gives it such a melancholy vibe. I think we also need to give praise to Toby’s beautiful piano playing in this version. Not many mention that.
Beautiful reaction to a sublimely beautiful song. 💙👣
Just wanted to say thanks for helping me understand how special Angelina is your insight and infectious delivery make the tracks mean so much more👍
You are so welcome!

Hi Britt... Beautiful reaction... IMHO just Angelina can "Cover" her own song making a completly new version..!!!! She is Amazing...!!
Great one Britt 🥰 , i really hope u get to experience her LIVE one day. Angelina❤ is something special when on stage, all the Angel's that have sen her LIVE would agree with me on that 😉😊👍 have a great day, take care an stay safe 😊
I hope so too!
Very well said and interpreted !
“The Woman who is Angelina”
Gracias chica Britt.. I love this version.. happy week 😎✌️
I absolutely love when she goes jazz - it feels when she goes pop, it's to satisfy the market, but when she does jazz she's showing her soul.
This is a masterpiece
Roses are red violets are blue. These words have never been used so beautifully.
I absolutely agree, we are hearing the woman Angelina Jordan singing from her heart ❤️🔥 this Jazzy-soul is my favorite favorite from this Goddess of Jazzy-soul 🌞
Great reaction, Britt. This one is manna from Heaven for longstanding Angelina fans. Wow! 👼
Bellissima reazione con spiegazioni tecniche perfette,come sempre.Sono sempre più sbalordito da Angelina.Hai ragione, prima si potevano fare previsioni sulla grandezza di questa fuoriclasse del canto.Ora ci sono certezze assolute : Angelina è la più grande cantante di questo secolo.
Pienamente d'accordo con lei.
Love this Jazzy version the best. 💔
"The woman, Angelina Jordan"... yes, Britt! Well said. It feels exactly like that.
I've been following Angelina for 6/7 years now and she was always able to convey so much emotion in her performances because IMO she has that ability in her DNA.
But now, having gone through some of those experiences herself, her delivery is even more profound.
It's mind boggling she's still a very young woman/teenager, 18 years old, OMG. What's to come only God knows 😇🥰

With the minimal instrumental backing the nuanced vocals come through strongly.
Reminds me of the two versions of Cry me a River- 2017 jazz version and 2018 military band version....
Angelina could make an entire album with just one song.
Hahaha your so right 😂
I agree - this is her best track to date. Greetings from the UK.
That’s a bold statement Britt. I love this jazz version better also but do I think it’s AJ’s best vocal? I don’t know. Every song she sings is her best. Just until the next best comes along. My writing is not that great but I think you know what I mean. She is truly an amazing young lady with a voice of an angel ❤️❤️❤️❤️ excellent reaction Britt!
She has basically sang this song in 3 different genre's each seam to bring a different perspective and I love all 3 enjoyed your reaction
Thx Britt, Angelina has been blowing our minds since she strolled out onto the stage of Norske Talenter at the age of seven.
Great reaction, Britt. Her original version, to me, was sassy and spiteful, almost mean. In this jazzy version AJ is sad, plaintive and sorrowful that she had to be a Bad Valentine. The two versions are almost two different songs. I agree with you that this is her best musical artistry so far and my favorite. Thanks for all your excellent reactions.

wait to u hear her original THANK YOU has a reggae pop jazz feel how does she do it . a session musicisn singer songwriter resctor who traveled from england to glendale shoew said it should be a hit !!!
This is amazing! The first one says “I’m the boss and I’m dumping you” and this one says “Oh I’m So Sorry, I feel bad, I must be a bad valentine”
Great reaction. It depends on my mood, like them both. She is so awesome.
Couldn't agree more!
If this version doesn't bring on the best vocal gymnastics ever, I don't know what does,,,. She's gonna claim her throne with this. And forever reign. The barefoot Queen.
This is so much, Angelina. It's impressive that she can do an extraordinary cover of her own song. Thank you for your pleasant reaction!
The power of Song demonstrated !!!
To me this is the best Jazz vocals that I haven't heard since the Jazz years from decades ago.
This is a prime example of how the subtext of a song speaks louder than the actual text. And, of course, Angelina's voice really brings that meaning to life.
❤❤❤Love Angelina❤❤❤
AGREE WITH YOU....100%
As always Britt, brilliant reaction to something that defies the realms of possibility
I flat-out agree with EVERYTHING you said, Britt. It's the most perfect of her recordings so far and the most technically amazing since I Put A Spell On You.
Hands down, this is the better version, only because we can hear Angie's full roots
Angelina’s vocal dexterity is unmatched.
This version has so much heartbreak and regret it breaks me every time I hear it. For me, this is the ONE. All the other versions are great too, but this is full of all the layers of breaking up. This is somehow is more tragic for both sides than the others. She uses all the tools in the box. It's an opera.
On point, Rachel...!
This is my personal favorite version!
This is like you says a fantastic song and performens of Bad Valentine from Angelina! Love it! ❤😊
The louder I play it the deeper I fall into her voice.
That was an exellent reaction Britt. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it
Well said Britt !!!
I just love it! And your reaction are great. Continue to make good reactions who make us happy.😎🇸🇪❤️
Thank you, I will
This is definitely my favorite song I've ever heard her sing. She emotes throughout the song. All her covers of other artists' songs leave me empty, with no emotion in her performance. She has the talent to sing all the notes, but does so without emoting. NOT the case with this song.
This one. Hey, they should name the next James Bond movie "Bad Valentine".
Toby's fashion sense is So Cal surfer
It depends on your frame of mind, and the attitude ot the significant other. All are great, but this is classic jazz
IMO, this jazz version of “Bad Valentine” is, hands down, the best rendition.
The original, recorded when she was 16, is what it was meant to be then, sass and empowerment. Two years of maturing and processing that horrible breakup and this is the version that is meant to be now- melancholy.
Angelina Jordan will eventually become the new Elvis not the new Amy. She has his looks, his charisma, his talent , his vocals, and she adores him as a idol. This song may be the one to shift her career into high gear.
Great reaction. Thanks!
Thank you too!
World class ❤❤❤
"Now... You are a stranger with all of my secret's.!!!" - Reality At Large [ Ms. AJ Angel Fan's Family Worldwide & Beyond ] Thank U - Britt
IMO, Tobi knows and appreciates what discovering Angelina has done for him to fulfill his goal of reimagining his songs for his “Piano Diaries” album. Their collaboration in creating “Bad Valentine” is going to elevate their global presence, especially with Republic Records’ marketing and distribution prowess.
Tobias Gad is German born and lives in LA.
I prefer the original personally but that doesn’t take away from Angelina Jordan’s vocal prowess she’s the best no matter what genre she sings
Personally I like this Jazzy version better especially her scating the line "you should have been breathing fire..." ❤❤👣❤❤
You are right Toby Gad was born in Munich/Germany
Nice reaction
An emotional wonder 🤔 now looking back to the past in a melancholy Way 💕, today a powerful woman, the maneater 👠 and how will she be in the future 🙏😇?
Don't forget what she always said "be kind to each other and spread Love 💕"
Creo que con ésta versión queda demostrado que Angelina es la mejor vocalista de la actualidad y la mejor que yo haya escuchado en mi vida. Angelina nace en el jazz sin dudas. Esta versión tiene elementos claros de Jazz, el piano, la ralentizacion y la improvisación. Algo admirable y que mencionaste es su capacidad de versionar su propia canción a otro género. De Angelina artisticamente ya no me sorprende nada de su capacidad como vocalista, pero el placer de escucharla cantar está siempre presente.
Some people wonder which song is Angelina’s best song.I think I have the answer. The next one.☝️
Wait, what? As an American man, my short sleeve shirt and maybe sometimes accidentally matching shorts don't stand up to Toby's European fashion sense? 😂
p.s. Agree, this is an absolute masterpiece of vocal performance. And since we know she works hard at learning and growing, I feel comfortable saying this is just the beginning.
This version is my favorite! There is no doubt Angelina is preparing to take off on an incredible trip to world wide stardom!
This is how you re-introduce classic pop-jazz to the world after a 70 year hiatus.
Britney, this version is of someone. Trying to find out if the right thing. It’s with pain-filled. Regrets. Listen to that deep down painfulness coming up or out . That is the Signal and signature of Jazz. And a great Jazz moment by Angelina. .. This gives the opening for several groups young and old to gravitate to.
Everett I like this one much better it's great
Hello Britt, how are you? A hug from the Brazilian nation. I reacted to Gabriel Henrique singing Vision of Love (Acoustic. He and his father on guitar, fantastic, thank you, kisses. Brazil loves you.
❤❤❤ Angel from Romania ❤❤❤
THIS SOUND IS UNIQUE UNIQUE UNIQUE!!!!!!!!!
NUMBER ONE IN WORLD!
Inexplicable to me that AJ is not already much more famous . This sounds like a top notch singer at the peak of her career, clearly true except that she most likely is not at the very peak yet...she will have a very long career. What confidence!
Britt ..marterprice.. I'm Cray ... now...!! 😢❤🎉
