It's an Angelina Jordan original and the first one we know of. The lyrics and the basic musical composition are hers, arranged for piano and guitar. Orchestral arrangement by conductor Lars Erik Gudim (the guy with the baton) and producer Bjørn Morten Kjærnes (the guy in the blue shirt with a thumbs up). The Norwegian Armed Forces Staff Band (Forsvarets stabsmusikkorps) recorded the 16-track album "It's Magic" in 2017 to mark its 200th anniversary in 2018 and released it under their record label Forsvarets Musikk. Due to the special anniversary, they asked Angelina Jordan to do vocals for the album. As a special tribute to Angelina, two of her originals were also included in the album ("Oslo" is the other one). This video shows one of the practice sessions before the actual recording in the booth at the end of 2017, so Angelina is still 11 years old here (she was 12 when the album finally was released in mid-2018). For a better understanding of the lyrics, I strongly recommend the lyric video on her official channel ua-cam.com/video/crngnoq0WLc/v-deo.html
Angelina has been writing songs since she was 10 years 0ld - So far 12 have been released: Oslo, What is Life?, Shield, Million Miles, 7th Heaven, Love Don't Let Me Go, Now I'm The Fool, Fire and Rain, All My Fault, Good in Goodbyes, Diamond, and Our Time. Angelina has stated that she has written about 100 songs that have yet to be released. Her songs are taken from her Journal writings. When she was 10/11 she rewrote the Lyrics to Amy Winehouse's Back to Black and Rehab to make them more age appropriate at that time.
She wrote and first perform this at 11 years old. She plays violin, piano, flute and guitar. So she understands and has these instruments in her head when she's writing music. She additionally, has a great understanding of cello trumpet and saxophone.😇🌺
Great reaction. I think others have pointed out the other versions of this song. The sound quality is better so you can understand Angelina’s beautiful words better. You should check them out. As to the “woodwind” instruments you were wondering about… The silver instrument played sideways is a flute. I think they are made in two basic sizes (there is also a “piccolo” - a tiny flute). The long black instrument (that is held out in front) is a clarinet. It is similar to a saxophone. They both make a sound using a reed, but the clarinet’s sound is mellower because it’s made of wood, whereas the saxophone sounds “sassier”… it’s made of brass. Looking forward to your next AJ reaction. 😉👍 🖤👣
Composed and written by Angelina, her first song at the age of 11/12. The audio quality with this cell phone recording is not great, you definitely have to listen to the acoustic version and the orchestra version. 👣💯 *AJ* 💯👣
Hey Bud! Great to see you again😊 Yup, this was one of her first originals, if not THE first, called "What Is Life". She was 12 years old the first time I heard it, so I guess she was 12 when she wrote and composed it as well. Or maybe even younger. But not older. At least I know THAT 🤪 And to answer your questions about the clarinet and/ or the flute, the answer is YES and YES. So now you know. Btw, I saw you without the cap for 9 seconds here. First time ever 😉 I actually think you looked cool without the cap, no cap. I hope life is treating you good, m8. Outside of the 24/7 work I mean. If you need a suggestion for another AJ reaction, here goes : 2 weeks ago she released a song that she made for an ad for SoFi. I believe it is an American online bank ?? Anyhow, the ad should be running nation wide in the US now, and the ad will also be played a lot during matches at the SoFi Sports stadium. The song is fast paced and what you may call a real BOP, so I think it will catch the audience's attention. I think the new UA-cam AI stuff is really aggressive at removing comments containing links, so I won't add it here. But I know you'll find it, it is on her official page. I know you'll like the song. Take care!! Love from Norway ♥♥♥♥♥
It has been a while,but it feels good to be back. Glad to have your support still. Everything is going well on my end, just working a lot (a lot being an understatement.) Will definitely check out the new vid. Hope all is well with you & the fam 💯💯 stay safe 🙏🏾
@@burntchickhn FedEx before Christmas isn't exactly the definition of peace and quiet, but we're doing just fine over here 🙂 My wife's been to Germany for 4 days, I'll pick her up today, so at least THAT side of life has been a lot quieter😂😆 Looking forward to see what you think about the song. Stay strong💪🤜🤛🔥
