Chris Stapleton "borrowed" the melody from I'd Rather Go Blind for his Tennessee Whiskey, so the mash-up works well. She recorded this at 12, but the video wasn't posted until she was 13. This is a Masterclass in the use of vocal fry which she has turned up to 11 in this!
Angelina was 12 years old when she recorded this performance - she was sitting on a sofa at home and testing a new microphone she had just gotten for her birthday. I'd Rather Go Blind" is a blues song written by Ellington Jordan and co-credited to Billy Foster and Etta James. First recorded by Etta James in 1967, it is now considered a blues and soul standard, covered by numerous artists. Chris Stapleton "borrowed" the melody from I'd Rather Go Blind for his Tennessee Whiskey.
Great reaction, this performance does have the "wow" factor for sure! And how about that belt near the end, a full 16 or 17 seconds of varying pitch and tone. I unconsciously find myself holding my breath when she sings that part. Just awesome!
Some of her best work to date has been from her music corner at home, like this one, when she was 12-13 years old. It wasn't just because the quality far outpaced her age. It was just simply the quality of voice, passion, and emotions conveyed for any age.
This is one of my favorites by a young AJ just having fun.... but don't miss the mash-up with Chris Stapleton's Tennessee Whisky.... it is a match made in heaven.
the confusion about her age is while she recorded this just after her 12th birthday AJ took the video down and Boris had it put back up on his youtube channel later when she was 13. You can see .Boris' picture in the upper right corner with the cat on his head at the very end.
Your age estimate of around 30 is close - Etta James was 37 at this live concert ua-cam.com/video/uZt1xKtPbUQ/v-deo.html. It's always good to know the source of inspiration. So Angelina probably intended to sound like a 30+ yo, but it could be she has a bit more rasp here than Etta. By the way: It is often said Angelina slowes down songs to the max - in this video you can guess where she got that from.
12 yr old Angelina just sitting on the couch belting out a Jazz Standard with more grit than Etta used. Beyonce does a beautiful version of this in the Movie 'Cadillac Records' the story of Etta James. Great movie. Highly suggested. Available on UA-cam I believe for free. I noticed that second to last run grabbed your attention. 16 seconds in one breath! Breathtaking to say the least. 😊♥👣

Angelina was actually 12 years old when she recorded this performance - she had just gotten a new microphone for her birthday and was testing it out.

Way past extraordinary, so unbelievably beautiful. Hell you don't need to hear the original!
She was 12 years old, and that mic was a present for her birthday!

A great interpretation of a twelve year old girl with one of her 1000 voices ❤
She said my music is bigger than me 💕

She's an empath
Tennessee Whiskey was 'inspired' (lol) by I'd Rather Go Blind.
