Thank you everyone SO much for all you have shared about Angelina Jordan. I look forward to reacting to more of the barefoot princess and can’t wait to listen to all of your suggestions. You all are fantastic!! 😁😁
Can't wait for your next reaction to this amazing young lady. You will be shocked by any song you pick, but the most requested will undoubtedly be her black and white version of "I put a spell on you" done when she was 9. ua-cam.com/video/nwFloCPXzCs/v-deo.html
do you want to hear a voice really out of the human world ??👽 Morissette Amon. if you want to hear vocal perfection, listen to it. Rise up, Never Enough, Akinkana lang (original song in Tagalog, there are subtitles). all performed live, on an FM radio, while seated. it is there, on the top of the vocal world.
Daniel Earnest, hope it's not too late for you to read this! THANK YOU SO MUCH for responding to my request!!! I knew you would love her and be amazed with her vocals at this young age! But you really haven't seen anything yet! Angelina was born in Oslo, Norway, January 10, 2006, and is now 16. She has about 160+ covers plus amazingly beautiful originals (written between ages 11 & 15) to her credit performed from age 6 until now. You will see another longer comment from RUSTY SHACKLEFORD in these comments. Please read to get the bio on Angelina. Rusty is considered the "unofficial guru" of all things Angelina by many of us "angels" (Angelina fans). Then, my advice would be to go to Rusty's YT channel for a COMPLETE listing and links of all Angelina's covers and originals. Then, take a wonderful, long, and exhilarating leap down the rabbit hole -- and watch your subscription base blow up! Thank you again!!
Welcome into Angelina Jordan musical magical world. And please Daniel, I want to see your face when you will listen to Angelina sing "I Put A Spell On You" when she was only 9 years old.
Probably hard to accept when you hear her the first time, but she is the best singer of her generation worldwide....and this does not only include her voice but her whole musicianship. After the next 150 videos from Angelina you will probably agree with most of us here....:-)
Simply… the best vocals ever. Angelina is going to be everywhere soon! Not because she is beautiful on the outside. Because she is beautiful on the inside. I believe she could live on an island in the Arctic and we would still seek her out.!
You have NO IDEA the Rabbit Hole you just climbed into Alice. 200 covers and originals to go through and your going to shit your pants on every one of them.
Remember this day because you’ve heard the best singer around. I could give you twenty more songs right now that are easily as good as what you just heard-and they span jazz, blues, pop, soul, ballads, and even more. Angelina is not explainable-just start listening. Pick any title you like from and age from 7 to now 16, and she will stun you. By all means, try Bohemian Rhapsody, or Billie Jean, or just now-My Funny Valentine. Your musical life has changed today.
Angelina will one day be a legend in the musical world,to her fans she already is,there is no one remotely like her.Thanks for reacting to this young superstar.
.... and it only gets better! When you understand why she is barefoot, you will understand so much more about Angelina's personality, her work ethic, and her world view (and her place in it). BTW, she just turned 16 in January.
Daniel, You have just fallen into Angelina Rabbit Hole, and there is no way out! Set back and enjoy the ride, welcome to her musical journey of incredible music.
The reason Angelina is barefoot is that when she was six years old she gave her shoes to a homeless girl in Iran and ever since then she has vowed never to wear shoes when she performs until all the children of the world have shoes. You absolutely need to hear her versions of "bohemian rhapsody" on America's got talent and her version of "I put a spell on you". I promise it is well worth it!
cece Here is the real reason she performs barefoot-----nothing about a vow; nothing about all children having shoes. In a interview, Angelina explains in her own words: As fans have come to know, Jordan likes to perform barefoot, in honor of a young girl she met when was 6 who didn’t have any shoes. Ever since the young singer gave that girl her shoes, she’s performed without wearing her own......“I want to remind myself that there are less fortunate people around the world who need help,” she says. “It is a great reminder for me.”
Angelina does not just understand her resonators, she understands the jazz pocket, timing, phrasing, breath control, and much much more. She is a vocal tour-de-force! You've done it now. You have fallen into the vortex of Angelina Jordan who arguably brings the most confident, versatile, seemingly effortless, and fearless vocal artistry found today (whether measured across artists, genres, or decades). You may think this an exaggeration but listen to a few more of her many performances (140+ covers plus original songs - all on YT) and you will see! She has been performing at a high level all over the world since age 8 when she won Norway's Got Talent singing Billie Holiday, Nancy Sinatra, and Gershwin. It is the rare singer that can, as Angelina has done, go from Queen to "Screamin" Jay Hawkins to Adele to Elvis to Whitney Houston to Michael Jackson to Etta James to James Brown to Amy Winehouse to the Beatles (and many others in between) and do them all justice! You might not believe yet, but you will! If you want to hear music, listen to anyone. If you want to feel music, listen to Angelina. She will stagger you with her ability to find and bring forth the 'essence', the emotional message of nearly any song. You have far to go with Angelina. She is equally comfortable and equally able to impact us whether singing a cappella, accompanied only by a piano or guitar, in front of professional studio musicians or a 40 piece military band. With her immense vocal toolkit, arranging ability (yeah, that too, since about 8yo or so) and the work ethic to make what she does only 'seem' effortless, she will hopefully be touching hearts for a long time to come. Yes, she performs barefooted, wait until you figure out why! Hint: She has raised millions for children's charities. Why God has performed the miracle of touching the world with one of such talent, musical IQ, commitment, and generosity as Angelina we can wonder but we must all marvel. Welcome aboard the AJ train! Please react to more of her impressive library. Try this, just pick a bigname artist from the last 70 years. Websearch that name along with Angelina's (chances are she has covered something of theirs), listen to it, be amazed (again), repeat all day long. Enjoy!
This girl has over 160 videos on UA-cam alone and has been spellbinding since she was 7. She can sing anything and make you change your mind completely about a song you've heard a thousand times. Watch her run on Norway's Got Talent when she was 7-8. You will never have seen anything like it. The Angelina journey is a fun ride but it is addictive. 😎
You have just scratched the surface of this incredible talent. Being your first exposure to Angelina, you may be fooled into thinking she is so loved because she sounds older than her age. That might be the case for other child singers, but that is only a small part of what makes her special. Her musical intelligence is off the charts. She does things that make her age totally irrelevant. The choices she makes are those of a master level singer that has been doing it for decades. This will become more apparent when you hear more of the art she creates with her voice. She is not just "great for a kid", she is excellent for any age. And as always for anyone new to Angelina, here is a little bio so that you can learn a little more about her background and her kind and caring soul....... Please go check out her channels ("Official Channel" and "Cover Channel") and watch all of her incredible videos! *Angelina Jordan* - Angelina Jordan was born Jan 10 2006 in Oslo, Norway. She is currently 16 - 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 160 songs and over 70 artists. 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 five of her own original songs: "What is Life", "Shield", "Oslo", "Million Miles", and "7th Heaven" (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. - Updates: 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 2020 she released her first single under Republic... "Million Miles"! On March 19 2021 Angelina released her latest single "7th Heaven" In Dec 2021 her cover of "Mercy" was in the opening credits for the movie "The Hating Game" She has done so much already, but at 16 she is just getting started!!!
BTW: since you are new to Angelina, here is a little "Angelina starter pack" to give you an idea of her talent and versatility..... "Gloomy Sunday" (NGT Audition) (Age 7): ua-cam.com/video/2da7N6ADm9s/v-deo.html "I Put A Spell on You" (age 9): ua-cam.com/video/nwFloCPXzCs/v-deo.html "Diamonds Are Forever" (age 11): ua-cam.com/video/xRfFcnD3KSo/v-deo.html "A Million Year Ago" (Adele) (age 12): ua-cam.com/video/QHLtZQ3sIwE/v-deo.html "It's a Mans World" (age 12): ua-cam.com/video/HEm7tGrjIKk/v-deo.html "Bohemian Rhapsody" (age 13): ua-cam.com/video/qF0JV28vgLw/v-deo.html "Easy on Me" (age 14): ua-cam.com/video/Mpw5Q76hWWE/v-deo.html ...but really you can pick any video you find. She never misses.
Welcome to Angelina's magical world, have a nice journey, Daniel. By now this fantastic girl has gone so far that she has become practically not commentable, you can only admire her and be happy to be there when she continues to grow and bewitch us with his incredible voice. It is absolutely a cure for souls and for the heart, the only contraindication is that it makes her cry with emotion. 💛 🧡 ❤️
Wow, hola Daniel, esto fue maravilloso, perdon, Angelina es Maravillosa, un ser humano muy especial que lo vuelca a su hermoso arte, es una campeona, no deja de sorprenderte nunca, es mi numero 1, 2 y 3... nunca escuche y senti nada igual, gracias por reaccionar a ella, ojala continues con admirable camino...
So welcome to the world of Angelina Jordan, Queen of Jazz. Her rabbithole is deep, so fasten your seatbelt and prepare for a hell of a ride. One year before that she recorded a jaw dropping homage to 1950ies Screaming Jay Hawkins Jazz classic " I put a Spell on you": ua-cam.com/video/nwFloCPXzCs/v-deo.html
You need to have a look at her demo of Baby Fuzz; I`m still holding out for you, never released but leaked. AMAZING, still 10 years old. Ann from Norway
Thank you for a great reaction. Angelina is not only famous for her low voice, but also for her total control over that voice. She's also famous for her reason not to ware shoes when she performs. She is famous for her hard work. (160 amazing videos on youtube and then there are instagram and tiktok). She is famous for never being nervous on stage (even at 7 years old). She is famous for her musical understanding and so on and so on. And despite all this, she is a humble sweet girl who want to share her love for music with the rest of the world. At 16 she's already a legend in many fans eyes.
I’d never heard of you, but I found your channel because you reacted to Angelina Jordan. Her fans love to see new reactors investing in Thesauruses to attempt to express the sounds and feelings that occur when you listen to her. Many say she is an empath, I just believe that I am fortunate to hear her amazing performances. You’ve gained another subscriber.
"And another one bites the dust..." You are about to go down the rabbit hole (as we fans call it) and be flooded by angels (as her fans are called). Prepare to be amazed over and over again. Not only her singing but her backstory will astonish you. And welcome. No doubt you will quickly learn why she sings barefoot.
Welcome to the Angelina Jordan AKA The barefoot Princess. She will never cease to amaze you. I’ve been following her since she was about nine years old. She is absolutely an angel sent from heaven. Go in and research the story why she’s barefoot it makes her that much more of an awesome person and an angel. She speaks like three different languages plays like four instruments she is the youngest published author in Norway the talent this young lady has is out of this world. Going to subscribe to you because I like to your video and love to see new people learn about The barefoot princess. If you want to really blow your mind react to it 1956 version of screaming Cj Hawkins I put a spell on you black and white version
Blown away? This was like a first flight in a bi-plane compared to the Virgin Galactic flight you've booked yourself on if Angelina videos become regular.
Welcome to the Angels world and the rabbit hole.....She has had 4 years of stage experience in her history since until time. She has over 150 covers and some of her own original music.....I am sure those below have also stated this.....Currently signed with Republic Records and is now 16........Summer concerts in Norway scheduled. and Many More. some good ones to try is the video of all 4 of her audition and songs on Norways Got Talent at 7......and at 13 Bohemian Rhapsody on AGT Champs. Oh and check out the interview vid of why she is bear foot.....She has a Published a book on it......
Hi Daniel. Welcome to the Angelina Jordan rabbit hole! I absolutely love watching first time reactions to Angelina. People are always blown away, and "insane", "I have no words", "incredible", "how?" are common phrases used. You are not alone in this. Find Rusty Shackleford's comment (undoubtedly he will write one) and read the whole thing for some solid back-story on Angelina. And hundreds of her most dedicated fans (her Angels) will give you lots of options of what to react to next. She has 150+ covers and originals to pick from crossing many genres and original artists, all with one thing in common - they will each "blow you away" for various reasons. She's truly incredible, and started her public journey on Norway's Got Talent when she was 7. She's 16 today, and somehow, keeps getting better and better. And, she's just an amazingly loving and caring human being too. Simply magical. Welcome, and thank you for your first reaction to AJ! Peace!!
Yes a favorite pass time of mine too. Watching someone for the first time listening to the Future Queen of Music. Always a happy moment for me you got about 160 songs to choose, currently she is 16 and dropped My Funny Valentine 2-14-22 but be warned, you may never be the same after watching her beauty and hearing the song will make your soul melt in the best away.
JUST SUBSCRIBED. LOVED IT, LOVED IT LOVED IT!! No sense in me commenting now after 150 other comments. Angelina is the most incredible vocalist you will ever see!! She will soon be a superstar and I'm talking along the lines of CHER, CELINE, WHITNEY. Can't wait for the next reaction. Take care Daniel.
She’s really come into her own. She’s sixteen now, I think, and recently signed her first record deal. Her mom wanted her to wait so she could enjoy her childhood a little bit, and didn’t want her forced into that world too young. She’s incredibly versatile. Does a lot of great covers and some pretty great originals, too. She has a sweet personality, is very humble, yet determined. She’s also an author. Always goes barefoot because of a young homeless girl she met when she was a child. They shared their dreams together, and Angelina gave her her shoes. Beautiful person. Beautiful voice.
The more you listen to songs she done , the more shocked you will be , don`t miss the originals she has , also catch her at 6 years old in a recording studio ,
Nina Simone is considered to be 'The Gold Standard' for this song. Well, 10 year old Angelina has taken it to 'The Platinum Standard' with this presentation. She has reigned supreme as 'The Queen Of Jazz' for sometime now.......and is only 16 at this point in time.
@@nfpnone8248 You're talking about a 10 year old girl here who is doing something with as much range as the song calls for, as she did when singing Hatfield's 'Unchained Melody'. Do you honestly think Nina Simone could come near to someone like Billie Holiday? She's good, but don't get carried away and let me hear some of her songs when she was 10? Not too long ago they rated 'The Top 50 Jazz Singers Of All Time' and she didn't come near Billie or the highest rated one of them all, Ms. Ella Fitzgerald. By the time Angelina reaches adulthood, she will blow by all of them.
@@nfpnone8248 Just been and done that - first time ever listening to Nina Simone, I did enjoy Nina's version, except for the end. I loved her phrasing of the song and her enunciation was beautiful. Angelina's version in both tempo and phrasing was totally different, and I liked the two very low notes she used when singing the word "good" at the beginning and end, and the amazing crescendo was to die for. It is pointless comparing the two performances because, as I have commented, they were so different. The only thing one can say with some assurance is that one performance was that of a 32-year-old woman and the other by a 10-year-old child.
I cannot take it away from Nina Simone that hers is the best recording of this wonderful song. Angelina's interpretation however is brilliant, and would rate as the best stage performance I have ever seen or heard, whether she was 10, 30 or 50. As we all know, incredibly, she was ten!!!!
Hi Ridgemanron I was fascinated by your comments. You have great taste and drive and focas. I agree with you Nina Simone is one of the Greats Legends of all time. Just food for thought... Do you think it can be possible for any other Artist, to Learn from the Greats & Legends in the music history, to be as Great? As I personally continue to view this Outstanding Artistry of a youth who is musically sensitive, who has covered many genres learnt from past Musicians. For myself I don't think it's fair to compare Angelina Jordan to these Greats. The reason being, is she on par an equal & simply on the same playing field as Many of the Greats. The word Possible says it all...I'm possible. See for yourself as it's always good to make well informed choices. Would love to know how you got on? #AngelinJordanNinaSimonemashup #AngelinaJordanEvaCassidystingmashup #AngelinajordanElvismashup #AngelinaJordanMichaelJacksonmashup #AngelinaJordanChrisStapletonmashup #AngelinaJordanWhitneyHoustonmashup #AngelinaJordanBillyHolidaymashup #AngelinaJordanEllaFitzgerald #AngelinaJordanAdelemashup #AngelinaJordanBeyoncemashup #AngelinajordanFreddiemercurymashup #AngelinaJordanRihannaMikkyEkkoStayMashup #AngelinaJordanRihannaMikkyEkkoStayMashup #angelinajordanamywinehouse
It's best not to dwell on how old Angelina is; just accept her as the professional vocal artist that she is -- and has been since age 8 or so. She has over 160 videos on UA-cam (including a handful of originals) and signed with Republic Records in 2020 (at age 14; she's now 16). In my opinion, Angelina is the most talented vocalist alive today and by far the best natural jazz artist I've heard in years (like most of her tracks, this was her arrangement). She doesn't worry about how she does what she does, it's just natural. I look forward to more reactions to her; she'll blow you away every time. Welcome to Angelina's World!
Acknowledging her age has more to do with the emotional connection people feel listening to her sing. As we age, we learn to suppress and control our emotions in order to get along and get work done. Hearing this raw, unfiltered emotion in her singing is a blessing for all of us adults who feel emotionally restored by her voice. Singers of all ages can put us in touch with our emotions, but Angelina is something special.
Before you can make any assessment of AJ's voice, you need to see her more, because you haven't seen ANYTHING yet. She is Jazz! You should hear her at 6 and then at 16! She has COMPLETE control of her voice!
LOving your reaction Daniel! Its a great joy to watch reactors discover new artists and new music to them, and often they are new to us too. Its a great way to widen your horizon to music. Be that in genres and or artists you've never heared of that 'drowns' in the enormous amount of music you can find in here.
I just love watching people reacting to AJ for the first time. Now you want to see her in beast mode singing "I put a spell on you" a 1956 classic from Screaming Jay Hawkins (the guy on the candle). Better brace yourself! You will be totally blown away. She has over 150 video on YT, of that maybe 5 or 6 originals the rest are covers. Read about her you will be even more impress by her. Like learning the story of why she is performing barefoot. The great jazzman and (Michael Jackson producer) Quincy Jones said about her that she is the greatest musical talent since Michael Jackson.
Angelina is the barefooted Queen of Soul with a Thousand Voices! She weaves musical tapestries in all colors of the rainbow with her beguiling voice! Her musical artistry is second to none and it not something that can be taught. Soul + Music in perfect harmony!
Thank you everyone SO much for all you have shared about Angelina Jordan. I look forward to reacting to more of the barefoot princess and can’t wait to listen to all of your suggestions. You all are fantastic!! 😁😁
Can't wait for your next reaction to this amazing young lady. You will be shocked by any song you pick, but the most requested will undoubtedly be her black and white version of "I put a spell on you" done when she was 9.
ua-cam.com/video/nwFloCPXzCs/v-deo.html
Bohemian Rapsody or my Funny Valentine are amazing but she has a TON of amazing performances! I’m also obsessed with Goodbye Yellow Brick Road 😌

Daniel Earnest, hope it's not too late for you to read this! THANK YOU SO MUCH for responding to my request!!! I knew you would love her and be amazed with her vocals at this young age! But you really haven't seen anything yet! Angelina was born in Oslo, Norway, January 10, 2006, and is now 16.

Wlc to Angelina's World , rest of us just living in it, hehe you have no idea what u stumble into here. She is GOAT period she's 16 now ; ))
Angelina is a Vocal Goddess, she is always amazing, and mesmerizing. Loved your reaction to this song.
Simply… the best vocals ever. Angelina is going to be everywhere soon! Not because she is beautiful on the outside. Because she is beautiful on the inside. I believe she could live on an island in the Arctic and we would still seek her out.!
If Angelina impresses you at age 10, you hear her now! (Turned 16 y.o. on Jan 10th.)
You have NO IDEA the Rabbit Hole you just climbed into Alice. 200 covers and originals to go through and your going to shit your pants on every one of them.
You want low check out how great thou by Angelina
Your reaction was priceless. She really does seem to get better and better and better. A born diva.
Wellcome 😊
Lovely reaction
To quote an old saying "you aint seen nuthin yet".
one song by Angelina,you listen to,captivated forever,watch out.....
Great reaction! I'll sub for The Baby Faced Asassan, Angilina Jordan. She is a killer. 🇺🇸👍🔥💯⭐
oh you are in for such a treat... to be you and be able to hear all these songs for the first time again....
subbed for more Angelina... she now is not a child prodigy anymore, she's a full blown intergalactic vocal miracle by now... ;) I'm in for the ride
Remember this day because you’ve heard the best singer around. I could give you twenty more songs right now that are easily as good as what you just heard-and they span jazz, blues, pop, soul, ballads, and even more. Angelina is not explainable-just start listening. Pick any title you like from and age from 7 to now 16, and she will stun you. By all means, try Bohemian Rhapsody, or Billie Jean, or just now-My Funny Valentine. Your musical life has changed today.
Yeah , just Wow!!!🙂 she's very very good....💗
Angelina will one day be a legend in the musical world,to her fans she already is,there is no one remotely like her.Thanks for reacting to this young superstar.
.... and it only gets better!
When you understand why she is barefoot, you will understand so much more about Angelina's personality, her work ethic, and her world view (and her place in it). BTW, she just turned 16 in January.
Daniel, You have just fallen into Angelina Rabbit Hole, and there is no way out! Set back and enjoy the ride, welcome to her musical journey of incredible music.
The reason Angelina is barefoot is that when she was six years old she gave her shoes to a homeless girl in Iran and ever since then she has vowed never to wear shoes when she performs until all the children of the world have shoes. You absolutely need to hear her versions of "bohemian rhapsody" on America's got talent and her version of "I put a spell on you". I promise it is well worth it!
cece Here is the real reason she performs barefoot-----nothing about a vow; nothing about all children having shoes. In a interview, Angelina explains in her own words: As fans have come to know, Jordan likes to perform barefoot, in honor of a young girl she met when was 6 who didn’t have any shoes. Ever since the young singer gave that girl her shoes, she’s performed without wearing her own......“I want to remind myself that there are less fortunate people around the world who need help,” she says. “It is a great reminder for me.”
Very good reaction!!👏👏👏👏😄
342 subs today..... Angelina well bost that quickly !! Go Angelina !!!!
Yes she is a prodigy incredible good reaction
I'm not having a go but to say she's only famous because she sounds older is a bit out of order, Ms Jordan is famous because she's brilliant
Enjoy this endless rabbit hole lol
Sorprendente verdad ??? És Angelina Jordan !! 👍
Great reaction. Welcome to Angelinas World. That was just one of her many voices.
Learn about WHY she is barefoot on stage and that she published a book about it at 9 yrs. old and you will have a new definition of RESPECT!
A lot of her videos are recorded by her Grandmother Merri on her iPhone.🎼🤗
Angelina - A legend - The best young singer!
Hi Daniel, for future reactions to Angelina feel free to copy and paste: I can't believe she is 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16 😎🙏
Angelina does not just understand her resonators, she understands the jazz pocket, timing, phrasing, breath control, and much much more. She is a vocal tour-de-force! You've done it now. You have fallen into the vortex of Angelina Jordan who arguably brings the most confident, versatile, seemingly effortless, and fearless vocal artistry found today (whether measured across artists, genres, or decades). You may think this an exaggeration but listen to a few more of her many performances (140+ covers plus original songs - all on YT) and you will see! She has been performing at a high level all over the world since age 8 when she won Norway's Got Talent singing Billie Holiday, Nancy Sinatra, and Gershwin. It is the rare singer that can, as Angelina has done, go from Queen to "Screamin" Jay Hawkins to Adele to Elvis to Whitney Houston to Michael Jackson to Etta James to James Brown to Amy Winehouse to the Beatles (and many others in between) and do them all justice! You might not believe yet, but you will!
If you want to hear music, listen to anyone. If you want to feel music, listen to Angelina. She will stagger you with her ability to find and bring forth the 'essence', the emotional message of nearly any song. You have far to go with Angelina. She is equally comfortable and equally able to impact us whether singing a cappella, accompanied only by a piano or guitar, in front of professional studio musicians or a 40 piece military band. With her immense vocal toolkit, arranging ability (yeah, that too, since about 8yo or so) and the work ethic to make what she does only 'seem' effortless, she will hopefully be touching hearts for a long time to come. Yes, she performs barefooted, wait until you figure out why! Hint: She has raised millions for children's charities.
Why God has performed the miracle of touching the world with one of such talent, musical IQ, commitment, and generosity as Angelina we can wonder but we must all marvel. Welcome aboard the AJ train! Please react to more of her impressive library.
Try this, just pick a bigname artist from the last 70 years. Websearch that name along with Angelina's (chances are she has covered something of theirs), listen to it, be amazed (again), repeat all day long. Enjoy!
Well said. Absolutely love first-time reactions. Never a song that is just okay, by Angelina Jordan.
Fans of Angelina Jordan are a marketing and promotional tour-de-force! 🤣😂🤣
What a great comment, Scott! I agree!
Yes, excellent!
PERFECT comment ! I second everything you said. And then some. LOL
I did enjoy your first reaction to Angelina Jordan! I'll be back when you post more of her!
9 yr old Angelina, black and white version of, I Put a Spell on You.
This girl has over 160 videos on UA-cam alone and has been spellbinding since she was 7. She can sing anything and make you change your mind completely about a song you've heard a thousand times. Watch her run on Norway's Got Talent when she was 7-8. You will never have seen anything like it. The Angelina journey is a fun ride but it is addictive. 😎
You have just scratched the surface of this incredible talent. Being your first exposure to Angelina, you may be fooled into thinking she is so loved because she sounds older than her age. That might be the case for other child singers, but that is only a small part of what makes her special. Her musical intelligence is off the charts. She does things that make her age totally irrelevant. The choices she makes are those of a master level singer that has been doing it for decades. This will become more apparent when you hear more of the art she creates with her voice. She is not just "great for a kid", she is excellent for any age.
And as always for anyone new to Angelina, here is a little bio so that you can learn a little more about her background and her kind and caring soul.......
Please go check out her channels ("Official Channel" and "Cover Channel") and watch all of her incredible videos!
*Angelina Jordan*
- Angelina Jordan was born Jan 10 2006 in Oslo, Norway. She is currently 16
- 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 160 songs and over 70 artists. 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 five of her own original songs: "What is Life", "Shield", "Oslo", "Million Miles", and "7th Heaven" (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.
- Updates: 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 2020 she released her first single under Republic... "Million Miles"!
On March 19 2021 Angelina released her latest single "7th Heaven"
In Dec 2021 her cover of "Mercy" was in the opening credits for the movie "The Hating Game"
She has done so much already, but at 16 she is just getting started!!!

Welcome to Angelina's magical world, have a nice journey, Daniel. By now this fantastic girl has gone so far that she has become practically not commentable, you can only admire her and be happy to be there when she continues to grow and bewitch us with his incredible voice. It is absolutely a cure for souls and for the heart, the only contraindication is that it makes her cry with emotion. 💛 🧡 ❤️
10 years old Norwegian singer
You’ll learn why she bearfoot and time great
At this age, you need to forget about how young she is and just compare her equally to any other singer you know, of any age.
Wow, hola Daniel, esto fue maravilloso, perdon, Angelina es Maravillosa, un ser humano muy especial que lo vuelca a su hermoso arte, es una campeona, no deja de sorprenderte nunca, es mi numero 1, 2 y 3... nunca escuche y senti nada igual, gracias por reaccionar a ella, ojala continues con admirable camino...
New subscriber. Thank you for your reaction to Angelina - our barefoot princess. You are in for a joyous ride. Enjoy!
So welcome to the world of Angelina Jordan, Queen of Jazz. Her rabbithole is deep, so fasten your seatbelt and prepare for a hell of a ride.
One year before that she recorded a jaw dropping homage to 1950ies Screaming Jay Hawkins Jazz classic " I put a Spell on you": ua-cam.com/video/nwFloCPXzCs/v-deo.html
IPASOY was first recorded in 1956. 😎
You need to have a look at her demo of Baby Fuzz; I`m still holding out for you, never released but leaked. AMAZING, still 10 years old. Ann from Norway
Thank you for a great reaction. Angelina is not only famous for her low voice, but also for her total control over that voice. She's also famous for her reason not to ware shoes when she performs. She is famous for her hard work. (160 amazing videos on youtube and then there are instagram and tiktok). She is famous for never being nervous on stage (even at 7 years old). She is famous for her musical understanding and so on and so on. And despite all this, she is a humble sweet girl who want to share her love for music with the rest of the world. At 16 she's already a legend in many fans eyes.
I’d never heard of you, but I found your channel because you reacted to Angelina Jordan. Her fans love to see new reactors investing in Thesauruses to attempt to express the sounds and feelings that occur when you listen to her. Many say she is an empath, I just believe that I am fortunate to hear her amazing performances. You’ve gained another subscriber.
"And another one bites the dust..." You are about to go down the rabbit hole (as we fans call it) and be flooded by angels (as her fans are called). Prepare to be amazed over and over again. Not only her singing but her backstory will astonish you. And welcome. No doubt you will quickly learn why she sings barefoot.
Welcome to the Angelina Jordan AKA The barefoot Princess. She will never cease to amaze you. I’ve been following her since she was about nine years old. She is absolutely an angel sent from heaven. Go in and research the story why she’s barefoot it makes her that much more of an awesome person and an angel. She speaks like three different languages plays like four instruments she is the youngest published author in Norway the talent this young lady has is out of this world. Going to subscribe to you because I like to your video and love to see new people learn about The barefoot princess. If you want to really blow your mind react to it 1956 version of screaming Cj Hawkins I put a spell on you black and white version
Welcome to the journey.
Blown away? This was like a first flight in a bi-plane compared to the Virgin Galactic flight you've booked yourself on if Angelina videos become regular.
AJs B&W version of Screamin Jay Hawkins I Put a Spell on You, age 9 is mind blowing
Great insight!
Welcome to the Angels world and the rabbit hole.....She has had 4 years of stage experience in her history since until time. She has over 150 covers and some of her own original music.....I am sure those below have also stated this.....Currently signed with Republic Records and is now 16........Summer concerts in Norway scheduled. and Many More. some good ones to try is the video of all 4 of her audition and songs on Norways Got Talent at 7......and at 13 Bohemian Rhapsody on AGT Champs. Oh and check out the interview vid of why she is bear foot.....She has a Published a book on it......
Only 150 incredible covers and about 10 outstanding originals to go for you. You have to hurry a bit.
Welcome aboard Angelina so glad you're reacting
Hi Daniel. Welcome to the Angelina Jordan rabbit hole! I absolutely love watching first time reactions to Angelina. People are always blown away, and "insane", "I have no words", "incredible", "how?" are common phrases used. You are not alone in this. Find Rusty Shackleford's comment (undoubtedly he will write one) and read the whole thing for some solid back-story on Angelina. And hundreds of her most dedicated fans (her Angels) will give you lots of options of what to react to next. She has 150+ covers and originals to pick from crossing many genres and original artists, all with one thing in common - they will each "blow you away" for various reasons. She's truly incredible, and started her public journey on Norway's Got Talent when she was 7. She's 16 today, and somehow, keeps getting better and better. And, she's just an amazingly loving and caring human being too. Simply magical. Welcome, and thank you for your first reaction to AJ! Peace!!
Yes a favorite pass time of mine too. Watching someone for the first time listening to the Future Queen of Music. Always a happy moment for me you got about 160 songs to choose, currently she is 16 and dropped
My Funny Valentine 2-14-22
but be warned, you may never be the same after watching her beauty and hearing the song will make your soul melt in the best away.
You’ll love her!!! Welcome to her voice!!🤗🎼💗
Thanks for a great reaction. AJ is a gift to the world!💗💗💗
You may check out I'd Rather Go Blind, by AJ.
Try her "I'm Still Holding Out for You". Terrific!!
Great reaction and commentary! I liked learning about resonators. Can’t wait to hear you react to more of her songs!
Wow is all I can say too.
JUST SUBSCRIBED. LOVED IT, LOVED IT LOVED IT!! No sense in me commenting now after 150 other comments. Angelina is the most incredible vocalist you will ever see!! She will soon be a superstar and I'm talking along the lines of CHER, CELINE, WHITNEY. Can't wait for the next reaction. Take care Daniel.
Great reaction! Please do more Angelina Jordan reactions, she is the greatest jazz/soul/pop singer of our time!
She’s really come into her own. She’s sixteen now, I think, and recently signed her first record deal. Her mom wanted her to wait so she could enjoy her childhood a little bit, and didn’t want her forced into that world too young. She’s incredibly versatile. Does a lot of great covers and some pretty great originals, too. She has a sweet personality, is very humble, yet determined. She’s also an author. Always goes barefoot because of a young homeless girl she met when she was a child. They shared their dreams together, and Angelina gave her her shoes. Beautiful person. Beautiful voice.
Good! There is so much you have to get into with Angelina. She is a musical genius and a great human being.
When she auditioned for Norway's Got Talent, she left the judges with their mouths hanging open.
You need to listen to Angelina now 16
Just a natural. Her voice and styling reminds me MUCH of Ella Henderson. So good.
The more you listen to songs she done , the more shocked you will be , don`t miss the originals she has , also catch her at 6 years old in a recording studio ,
Awesome reaction, thanks so much for sharing! Subscribed so I dont miss the next one.
Great reaction, welcome to the best singer ever. Looking forward to more reactions of Angelina. Nice job. 👍
Nina Simone is considered to be 'The Gold Standard' for this song.
Well, 10 year old Angelina has taken it to 'The Platinum Standard'
with this presentation. She has reigned supreme as 'The Queen Of
Jazz' for sometime now.......and is only 16 at this point in time.
You need to go back and actually listen to Nina Simone, no one, and I mean no one can do this song better than Nina Simone!
@@nfpnone8248 You're talking about a 10 year old girl here who is
doing something with as much range as the song calls for, as
she did when singing Hatfield's 'Unchained Melody'. Do you
honestly think Nina Simone could come near to someone like
Billie Holiday? She's good, but don't get carried away and let me
hear some of her songs when she was 10? Not too long ago they
rated 'The Top 50 Jazz Singers Of All Time' and she didn't come near
Billie or the highest rated one of them all, Ms. Ella Fitzgerald. By the
time Angelina reaches adulthood, she will blow by all of them.
@@nfpnone8248 Just been and done that - first time ever listening to Nina Simone, I did enjoy Nina's version, except for the end. I loved her phrasing of the song and her enunciation was beautiful. Angelina's version in both tempo and phrasing was totally different, and I liked the two very low notes she used when singing the word "good" at the beginning and end, and the amazing crescendo was to die for. It is pointless comparing the two performances because, as I have commented, they were so different. The only thing one can say with some assurance is that one performance was that of a 32-year-old woman and the other by a 10-year-old child.
I cannot take it away from Nina Simone that hers is the best recording of this wonderful song. Angelina's interpretation however is brilliant, and would rate as the best stage performance I have ever seen or heard, whether she was 10, 30 or 50. As we all know, incredibly, she was ten!!!!
Hi Ridgemanron I was fascinated by your comments. You have great taste and drive and focas. I agree with you Nina Simone is one of the Greats Legends of all time. Just food for thought... Do you think it can be possible for any other Artist, to Learn from the Greats & Legends in the music history, to be as Great? As I personally continue to view this Outstanding Artistry of a youth who is musically sensitive, who has covered many genres learnt from past Musicians. For myself I don't think it's fair to compare Angelina Jordan to these Greats. The reason being, is she on par an equal & simply on the same playing field as Many of the Greats. The word Possible says it all...I'm possible. See for yourself as it's always good to make well informed choices. Would love to know how you got on?

It's best not to dwell on how old Angelina is; just accept her as the professional vocal artist that she is -- and has been since age 8 or so. She has over 160 videos on UA-cam (including a handful of originals) and signed with Republic Records in 2020 (at age 14; she's now 16). In my opinion, Angelina is the most talented vocalist alive today and by far the best natural jazz artist I've heard in years (like most of her tracks, this was her arrangement). She doesn't worry about how she does what she does, it's just natural. I look forward to more reactions to her; she'll blow you away every time. Welcome to Angelina's World!
Acknowledging her age has more to do with the emotional connection people feel listening to her sing. As we age, we learn to suppress and control our emotions in order to get along and get work done. Hearing this raw, unfiltered emotion in her singing is a blessing for all of us adults who feel emotionally restored by her voice. Singers of all ages can put us in touch with our emotions, but Angelina is something special.
Before you can make any assessment of AJ's voice, you need to see her more, because you haven't seen ANYTHING yet. She is Jazz! You should hear her at 6 and then at 16! She has COMPLETE control of her voice!
Absolutely, Tee! And I ALWAYS enjoy your Angelina reactions!
LOving your reaction Daniel! Its a great joy to watch reactors discover new artists and new music to them, and often they are new to us too. Its a great way to widen your horizon to music. Be that in genres and or artists you've never heared of that 'drowns' in the enormous amount of music you can find in here.
I just love watching people reacting to AJ for the first time. Now you want to see her in beast mode singing "I put a spell on you" a 1956 classic from Screaming Jay Hawkins (the guy on the candle). Better brace yourself! You will be totally blown away. She has over 150 video on YT, of that maybe 5 or 6 originals the rest are covers. Read about her you will be even more impress by her. Like learning the story of why she is performing barefoot. The great jazzman and (Michael Jackson producer) Quincy Jones said about her that she is the greatest musical talent since Michael Jackson.
ANGELINA JORDAN brought me here.... You have a new sub
You need to listen to her most recent version of the jazz standard 'My Funny Valentine'. Beautiful.
You have no idea of the depth of the rabbit hole that you are falling down into!!!!!
Angelina is the barefooted Queen of Soul with a Thousand Voices! She weaves musical tapestries in all colors of the rainbow with her beguiling voice! Her musical artistry is second to none and it not something that can be taught. Soul + Music in perfect harmony!
