And guess what, it Never gets old my friend. Only better, each time. Soon the world will be in love with her. We are the lucky ones. You can take that to the bank brother. Angelina Jordan is A Star.
Amazing reaction! Did you notice she had to keep looking for the words, she didn't know the lyrics? In an interview, the guitarist, Ivan Mendez said, "We don't know what song were going to do. She thumbs through her Tablet and picks a song. Neither one of ud know the song, she says take 5 minutes to familiarize and then 2 minutes later she says, just follow my lead". It's usually done in one take unless Ivan gets lost in her singing and messes up, was another thing he mentioned. He know when he was sitting there playing music for her as soon as she started he had mentioned he was first overwhelmed because he is next to Greatness! She is a Musical Genius, like a computer to perform like this on a whim, God Bless!
Your new name is now YAHHHH RAYYY Thank you so much for this reaction. I knew this would make you cry. I said it 100x I will say it again Angelina caresses our soul with her voice. She is no doubt a gift to the world from god. The reason she is not a big star is plain and simple JEALOUSY!!!!! Would you sit on a couch with just a microphone and compete with Angelina Jordan. Lollll Taylor Swift, Beyoncé, John Legend,I can go on and on. None of them would dare. She would blow them out the roommmmm. And it is not uncommon to fall in love with this force called Angelina. We all fall in love with her over and over again Ray. Just get used to it. Thanks so much for the reaction.
I listened to this over n over as my darling husband lay dying... I just connected with the pure raw emotion Angelina exudes. Loved that you finally got to review this. Awesome thanks Vibes 💯❤️💯
Beautiful comment. Sorry for your pain but Angelina has you reflecting and gives such hope for the future. I understand well the words you wrote and expressed so well. Thanks
Sorry for your loss and prayers to you . Angelina's music gives us another avenue to feel and express what we need to do in order to grieve and heal. Her music has gotten me through a number of events and no other singer can do what she does for me and many of us. God Bless.
I also have played her songs before and after the loss of my husband from cancer and her singing just so emotional and I listen to her and it’s healing and I feel better and I usually have a good cry and I don’t know how she gets to your soul like no other can Love from Oz
I have been listening to her nonstop for the last 4 days and when I tell you I have no more tears left inside my body , she is the sweetest little angel I have ever witnessed ! Her soul is so beautiful it's palpable !
Unlike other singers singing At You - Angelina sings To You, straight into your soul and leaves you with a melody that lasts for a long time... Fantastic reaction as always!
On the Guitar is Ivan Mendez who accompanied Angelina long time in L.A. .. and she killed it at age 12 !! .. reading the Lyrics along her singing .. and when you keep in mind there is a ad-hoc session .. like .. "do you know that song .. let us try this .. finding the Lyrics an try some cords .. and then Recording .. " .. like one said .. " there is Talent .. and there is Angelina Jordan .. "
I have watched her since she was eight and each year you don't think she can possibly be better and yet she keeps getting better. She is incredible when she sings jazz, simply no one can do what she does. Yet these ballads she sings show such a depth of emotion that she pulls you in. I think she will continue to grow until she finally becomes a household name. such talent is beautiful.
Thanks for reacting to this amazing performance by Angelina. The Barefoot Angel uses different styles that is why she is also known as the musical prodigy with 1,000 voices.
Homie you ain't the only one with tears in your eyes. Angelina's excellent, super talented and she's one of those people that speaks with her entire body you are absolutely correct. It's amazing to watch some artists the way that they close their eyes and they just get lost in their own voice it's pretty cool. I hope you have a good night, say hello to the family and whatnot and God bless America
I'm a 62 year old music lover who has listened to all the greats 1940s to now. Angelina is the only one that can make me cry when she sings. And it happens way more often than I care to admit. Her tone, her vibrato, her storytelling ability are all second to none. I just love her, my favourite singer of all time.
Me, too. I'm 60 and I've known about her 2 yrs now. She can soothe my soul, ease my anxiety, or pull--HARD--at my heartstrings. I'm sure her pure goodness and love for humanity has much to do with this ability of hers. She truly is the best.
Ivan goes from his day job hangs out at ANGELINAS home , choose some songs ,rehearsals then record often up to 3/4 songs in a day . often she will be reading the lyrics from her device.
You are the man. Listen and reflect to this song every morning and try to be a better man as the day goes on. Angelina breathes in the music and breathes out emotions and art. Thanks Ray for the reaction
This was my introduction to Angie 3 years ago. I must say, it caught me off guard. I was having a rough day and it absolutely floored me. The first time I ever completely broke down from listening to a song. It was a release of emotions that I needed at that time and I've been listening to her every day since.
Angelina quit playing with the music industry years ago and after listening to everything out there I can find and listening thousands of times I can't tell you how many times I fell in love with her and her voice. The total package bar none and only 16 now. Thumbs up Ray, super job and then the bye at the end that slays the heart.
People who get emotional from music are the best kind! How many other singers today can make you get in touch with yourself? Angelina has brought real music back and oh how she is needed!
You should watch that again and just pay attention to the face of the musician. Also she was reading the lyrics is amazing how she can express and feel the music and the lyrics and read at the same time.
Angelina doesn’t need to keep up with the guitarist, the guitarist has to keep in pace with Angelina so is so special, attending Angelina’s live concerts in Norway this previous week has been absolutely amazing, her stage presence is phenomenal her vocal performances amazing, her technical ability surpasses her years, great reaction thanks 🙏
First timing hearing your reactions- but I’m well entrenched in Angelina’s heavenly web! This is one of my very very favorites of hers!! LOVED your reaction- your emotional appreciation- your honest reactions and comments! It’s like getting to share an astounding treasure with someone! One of my ( many) other favorites is Angelina’s cover of Adele’s “ Go Easy on Me”. Have you reacted to that one yet?! It’s on this same astonishing level- no one should miss that! Lord bless you!
Angelina is unlike any singer I have ever heard. She is like the Siren from Greek mythology. As soon as she starts to sing, you are hypnotized and under her spell, oblivious to all else. And then she releases you. But instead of being dashed onto the rocks like in the story, Angelina releases you into the calm sea of tranquility.
The best way is to follow her amazing talent. All musicians has to keep it in their minds. That's why her first Album is often high ranking on the US iTunes Jazz top selling list. I hope RR will release her new Album very soon 🙏
Another great reaction Ray....love your AJ reactions, amongst the very best there is. Now not only did Angelina just deliver the most beautiful, stunning and exquisite vocals to this Adele cover but I hope you noticed that she was reading the lyrics as she sang this Ray....now that is Talent at the highest level....well Angelina has already set the talent level bar way higher than most anyone will ever reach. Cheers Ray, thank you for another great time with you and Angelina.
It is really not the music industry that is to "blame" for AJ still being largely unheard (she is of course a superstar in Norway) and having a semi-amateur status. This was the choice of her family when she won NGT and the entire world was knocking on their door to sign her. Her family wanted AJ to develop (and she did) while growing up with as normal a childhood as she could have (and she did). Except for her youtube channel (a chest of gold), she would usually just come on stage for charity. Personally, I think we should all thank them. We now have a blossoming and harmonic 16-year-old with a lifetime in front of her instead of a burnt-out child star. Oh - she has stated that she is hard at work on her first solo album. She is about to get all the attention 👍
I tried to introduce a buddy of mine to Angelina... Planed to get him to hear something from Norway's Got Talent and of course I PUT A SPELL ON YOU and this Adel cover to start him off. But after hearing this song he wouldn't hear anything else. After like the 6th or 7th time... I just gave up.
Ok Ray you have to listen to Faded by Angelina with Alan Walker live streaming... omg... its so amazing!!! Anyway love your reactions... they always make me laugh 😃... lots of love to you ❤️
Here, she takes on an Adele classic and performs it casually at home with no prior preparation. It still will penetrate the listener far deeper than Adele's great version. This is simply because Adele is a non-jazz singer and there is no way a true jazz specialist like Angelina can be topped by any non-jazz singer when performing a heartfelt ballad like this.
I don't know ridge. I suppose I can say you can generally feel the average Jazz singer, more than the average anything else singer. But AJ is one of a kind, I feel probably well over half of what I've seen from her. I feel other artists sometimes, plenty of them not Jazz singers. I think there is merit to what you say for sure, but to a degree. Some of it is something else in her as well. Has to be. There is an over arching storytelling ability that maybe lends itself to jazz, but is entirely separate, and she truly has that ability. She feels it, so so do we. That's the simplest way I can describe storytelling. He mentioned that you just fall more in love with her the more you see. I think a lot of it is versatility, takes a while to soak in the gigantic skill set she has. I think a lot of it is storytelling, that's always important in arts of any kind. There is just a gigantic journey that is so beautiful to be on, easy to cheer for her. I think a ton of it is control, to have that much control over the large amount she can do, so consistently is crazy. Her beautiful tone is huge for her. Some of it, the massive skill set is Jazz, and she brings a bit of it into her not so Jazzy stuff as well. But I think while you weren't wrong as a general rule to a degree, while Jazz lends itself to what you spoke of, all of what you are saying should be attributed to AJ, not Jazz. Adele makes people feel just fine, there have been many Jazz singers in music history. The most important thing for feeling what an artist is doing, is indeed falling in love with them. Then they truly have your attention. AJ has a load of weapons for that, Jazz is only one of them.
@@ryanjacob3338 She has said that if not for Billie Holiday she would not be the singer she is. Her ability to bring into heartfelt ballads the 'breathy; 'whisper-like' inflections that Billie revolutionized the jazz genre with, is the main component when she wants to bring forth deep feelings to the song. Take a song like 'Stay'. Whereas Rhianna's original is a polished, professionally designed presentation, Angelina out performs it in a home made video where not even Ivan knew was going to be their song that day until he arrived at her home. Nothing fancy by Angelina, but the essence of Billie Holiday is quite evident in her presentation. People need to listen to Andreas Grussl's expert vocal analysis of both Adele and Angelina singing 'Easy On Me' in his video, 'Is This Better Than Adele?'. He clearly shows the listener how Angelina's version is superior with regard to penetration into the human soul. Vocally, there are sections where Angelina's 'vocal chameleon' ability to emulate Adele's voice is evident, but then when you hear her using Billie's 'breathy', 'whisper-like' responses and add in the unique 'slurring' effect that Amy Winehouse was known for, you have one song that is totally non-jazz Adele and the other a conglomeration that contains the intricate complexity of three jazz artists and one great non-jazz artist in the song. In the power portion of the song, Angelina actually 'out belts' Adele, which is beyond amazing. Angelina has compartmentalized a vast inventory of different genre artists in her memory that she can bring forth whenever she desires, but at the heart of it all is her jazz inspired roots that never 'moved' me emotionally by any singer other than Billie Holiday. Both her and Angelina can just transport me to a serene place in my mind like no other singers I have ever experienced.
@@ridgemanron I can't disagree with any of that. But I think they are both artists first and foremost, Billie and her. It takes a special person to take breathy tones, ups and down, runs, and use them so much and still have it come out as art. While you see that in Jazz a lot, I think it is more about those two individuals. The only other one who can do that is Mariah Carey but maybe I've never enjoyed the higher keys near as much with those. Maybe using the lower keys is the secret with those, once you have someone with the artistic ability to make those techniques and choices into art. Because for sure, Billie hits me too, no where near the voice tone, vocal versatility or power of an AJ. But all the same, a breath of fresh air, unique real art is how I take her stuff. I'm just saying I think jazz lends itself to those skills, to hitting our feels, but it's still the artist that has to figure out how to use the hardest skills to use well artistically. Jazz is tough. It's usually a hot mess.
And from what I have seen, Jazz doesn't teach everyone all that well, only the artistically gifted. Many Jazz artists no one has ever heard of, a lot of it is hard to listen to. Too complex to be done mediocrely, boring despite its complexity when done mediocrely, off putting even. So I don't know, I am not trying to imply you think Jazz made AJ, but it was worded in a way I wanted to talk about it. In a sense you are correct, Jazz helped a lot, but it needs artists like AJ, without her Jazz is in the trash bin. A symbiotic relationship of sorts that few can tap into. IMO at least.
@@ryanjacob3338 In essence, Angelina is simply a 'one off' because of both her unmatched genre versatility as well as her amazing low register ability which is so amazing in the gospel song she did 'How Great Thou Art'. Have never heard another female, much less a child, who could do something like that. Like you, I've never been drawn to the insane high register notes that Mariah is known for, but another diva who is close to that level is Christina Aguilera and I was astounded when I heard Angelina match her in selected portions of the song 'Hurt' at six years of age. What Angelina displays in difficult songs like Whitney's 'I Have Nothing' and the classic James Brown song 'It's a Man's World' are both in the high register levels that my ears are more in tune to than Mariah's colossal level of hitting stratospheric notes. We have to also keep in mind that experts say Angelina has not reached her apex in musicality and won't until she becomes an adult which is mind boggling when you realize where she is at while still being a young girl. It could be said that Billie first, and then Amy, have redefined the jazz genre. To me, Angelina has redefined the intricacies of the genre once again, using elements of both these iconic jazz specialists that are especially incorporated by her in heartfelt ballad singing. When a singer can send tingles through me, like Angelina can, I find it almost medicinal with regard to the effect it brings to me.
Jay, as I understand it now, the videos we see of young Angelina (6 to 13) are original recorded as control instruments for her practice/eexercizes in singing. So she learned where she had gone wrong. Mery Zamany, her maternal Grandma, released them over the last years. It might very well be, that one day Mery, or Sara, AJ´s mother will relese them for other use. But until June, this year 2022, Angelina was not a pro and must be protected at all costs by her family. AJ is also still a minor and her family follows the law. We always forget, that to the law, she still is a kid and has to be protected by her family. Stay safe, you and yours. Elmar from Germany.😇
It's funny when you try to explain her and say if that Makes any sense because nothing about her makes any sense. It's all some kind of magic falling from Heaven
...and all I can do is watch and cry 😢
👍 simple, sweet and to the point 👍

Would you sit on a couch with just a microphone and compete with Angelina Jordan. Lollll

And it is not uncommon to fall in love with this force called Angelina. We all fall in love with her over and over again Ray. Just get used to it.
Thanks so much for the reaction.
Angelina "getting her emotions from the instruments around her"....perfect analogy.
Thank you Sir
Stunning. Perfection!
No, you are not the only one. Every day, I fall in love with this young lady more and more. She is fire!

Angelina Jordan singing the blues - Song- Mount Everest - from live concert in Norway 2022. You will be BLOWN away!!! 🔥 🔥🔥
Love your reacts... im right there with and foesnt matter how many times I listen to her sing this song.. tears running down my heart!
Let us keep in mind this is an 11 or 12 yr-old girl singing with this passion and emotion. Astounding.
One of my all time favourites by Angelina... and yes, after taking one somewhere, the child waves "Bye..."like she had been feeding birds...

While you see that in Jazz a lot, I think it is more about those two individuals. The only other one who can do that is Mariah Carey but maybe I've never enjoyed the higher keys near as much with those. Maybe using the lower keys is the secret with those, once you have someone with the artistic ability to make those techniques and choices into art. Because for sure, Billie hits me too, no where near the voice tone, vocal versatility or power of an AJ. But all the same, a breath of fresh air, unique real art is how I take her stuff.
I'm just saying I think jazz lends itself to those skills, to hitting our feels, but it's still the artist that has to figure out how to use the hardest skills to use well artistically. Jazz is tough. It's usually a hot mess.
And from what I have seen, Jazz doesn't teach everyone all that well, only the artistically gifted. Many Jazz artists no one has ever heard of, a lot of it is hard to listen to. Too complex to be done mediocrely, boring despite its complexity when done mediocrely, off putting even.
So I don't know, I am not trying to imply you think Jazz made AJ, but it was worded in a way I wanted to talk about it. In a sense you are correct, Jazz helped a lot, but it needs artists like AJ, without her Jazz is in the trash bin. A symbiotic relationship of sorts that few can tap into. IMO at least.
@@ryanjacob3338 In essence, Angelina is simply a 'one off' because of both her
unmatched genre versatility as well as her amazing low register ability which
is so amazing in the gospel song she did 'How Great Thou Art'. Have never heard
another female, much less a child, who could do something like that. Like you, I've
never been drawn to the insane high register notes that Mariah is known for, but
another diva who is close to that level is Christina Aguilera and I was astounded
when I heard Angelina match her in selected portions of the song 'Hurt' at six years
of age. What Angelina displays in difficult songs like Whitney's 'I Have Nothing' and
the classic James Brown song 'It's a Man's World' are both in the high register levels
that my ears are more in tune to than Mariah's colossal level of hitting stratospheric
notes. We have to also keep in mind that experts say Angelina has not reached her
apex in musicality and won't until she becomes an adult which is mind boggling when you realize where she is at while still being a young girl. It could be said that
Billie first, and then Amy, have redefined the jazz genre. To me, Angelina has redefined the intricacies of the genre once again, using elements of both these iconic jazz specialists that are especially incorporated by her in heartfelt ballad
singing. When a singer can send tingles through me, like Angelina can, I find it
almost medicinal with regard to the effect it brings to me.
This was when she was only 12 years old.
wow
It's Ivan Mendez on the guitar playing for Angelina.
I never pay attention to her age . I just enjoy...over
My god............
It's dusty in here. ;)
Ivan is the best!
endles love angelina tiktok cover please
you can see she's read the song on her scream, how can she put emotion right on?
You gotta do "I'd Rather Go Blind."
Okay I put you in charge of the music industry.
Finger painting on the fridge 😂 .
Jay, as I understand it now, the videos we see of young Angelina (6 to 13) are original recorded as control instruments for her practice/eexercizes in singing. So she learned where she had gone wrong.
Mery Zamany, her maternal Grandma, released them over the last years. It might very well be, that one day Mery, or Sara, AJ´s mother will relese them for other use.
But until June, this year 2022, Angelina was not a pro and must be protected at all costs by her family.
AJ is also still a minor and her family follows the law. We always forget, that to the law, she still is a kid and has to be protected by her family.
Stay safe, you and yours. Elmar from Germany.😇
React to Reese Youngn - 3 Sekonds and Nature Boy 🥺
The little word please might help ….

It's funny when you try to explain her and say if that Makes any sense because nothing about her makes any sense. It's all some kind of magic falling from Heaven
your voice volume is way lower then her singing
