My reaction to this was identical to yours. I now have listened to over 100 of Angelina's videos and I can't get enough. She is totally amazing. God bless her for bringing joy to the world in this trying time.
Think about this performance in light of Norwegian as her first language, English as her second language, and Farsi as her third...at the age of 9. Angelina is incredible.
There were 4 vignettes that relate directly to her life. The bare feet she will always perform bare footed because of a street girl who had scales and was guessing peoples weight to earn money long story somebody will write better, she promised as a remembarence of this girl to always perform that way. It also serves as a reminder to to the rest of us that there are many people who have no shoes or even have the choice to wear their shoes or not. She even wrote a children's book, around this time of this video, that was illustrated by her grandma Mery Zamani who was a child prodigy in painting and poetry growing up in Iran. The second scene she is making changes to the score at the last minute. Angelina not only picks the songs she will sing, but she also arranges them how she wants them to be played. While singing is her main gift she has become a first class arranger. She started learning composition and theory at around 5-6 years old. And she is definitely in charge, the musicians who played with her gave her the nickname 'The Boss' at around 6. Angelina is not just a great singer she is a musician. She hears a song, likes it, sings it for awhile and the ideas start to come. When she decides how she wants the song to go that is it and she will not be deterred in her singing it her way. The third scene is of her partner in crime, grandma Mery who started introducing Angelina to Jazz and eventually Billie Holiday. Who was a major influence to desire to sing. (Oh, an add-on to the shoe story, that I feel is interesting. The shoes that Angelina gave the girl were her !!!favorite!!! pair of boots. I do not know what favorite means, or meant to you when 6 years old. But I can tell you if they were my favorite anything, she would still be bare foot. When I was 5-6 years old the things that meant everything to me were the clothes I wore, usually the same thing 3-4 days in a row with Mom stealing them at night to wash them. For which I still nurture a grudge though she has been gone almost 20 years.) The final scene was her candle with the picture of the original artist and writer of this song, Screamin' Jay Hawkins. A muscical genius whose music struck a cord with Angelina and here it is. She has done this little vignette thing a couple of times they're not just cutesy things, they tell an important part of her life to that point. So until the next time.
WHen she (age 7) was on Norway's got talent, one of the judges remarked: she must have been drinking whiskey since she was 2 years old. Same reaction you had.
Strap yourselves in, guys. You are in for the ride of your life. She has flown under the radar of most folks until now on purpose. Her family decided early on that she would have as normal a childhood as possible, so they purportedly refused offers from some heavyweights in the industry. You're going to find out that there are LOTS of videos of her performing in summer concerts and at charity events as well as even more of her simply singing into a camera at home. Anyway, she is 17 now and graduating this year. She signed with Republic Records when she was 14, and it has been reported that one of the conditions was that they NOT promote her until she finished school. Well, we are on the doorstep of that event now. She is not only an incredible musical prodigy but a golden soul as well. Get to know her and I have a feeling you'll be joining the community of her supporters that she calls her Angels...I'm looking forward to accompanying you on your adventure!
Excellent synopsis of this incredible young talent Dharmabum! Well said. Of course, there’s SO much to know about Angelina the person… the beautiful human being that she is. Let the journey begin… 😉 ❤️❤️❤️👣
Accurately stated. AJ is a prodigy. A genuine phenom. Any singers you’ve known in the past whom many thought were prodigies, but simply impressed because they were young, eg; Shirley Temple, Judy Garland, Brenda Lee or Michael Jackson etc, none come close to this level. Not at 7-9 yrs of age. None of them. But this young girl has reset the bar at a level so high… I just don’t see any other person at that age past or present come close. The blonde girl, Evancho or however her name his spelled , she is an operatic singer and very good. But not like this. And the crazy thing is, how AJ takes great songs from great singers like Billie, Nora, Adele and even Whitney, and makes their songs sound fresh and original and unique. Anyway, you detailed everything so much better than I ever could. I just think she’s the best ever and I’m 70 years old. I shouldn’t feel this way … and that’s the spell AJ has put on all of us.
Nice first reaction! Oh boy, you are going to be bombarded by her fans called Angels that will fill you in on this music prodigy with an old soul from Norway. She's basically been a star since she was 7 years old. First and foremost, she is a jazz singer but has the ability to sing any genre. She also does all of her own musical arrangements. Her early influences are Billie Holiday, Dinah Washington, and Etta James to name a few. Her love of jazz came from her grandmother playing jazz music around her when she was young. In 2014, she entered and won Norway's Got Talent at the age of 8. With her new found fame, she used it to appear on many shows from abroad and help raise millions for the less fortunate children around the world. At age 13, she was invited to participate on America's Got Talent: The Champions in 2020. She shocked the audience and the judges with her rendition of Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen. She received a standing ovation from all and got the Golden Buzzer from judge Heidi Klum to go straight to the Finals. Her performance went viral and even the group Queen responded on Twitter by saying, " Wow, what a rendition!" Not only that, but she received the copyrights for her version of this song from Queen, which makes it hers now. She did not win, but her fan base grew and expanded her popularity. Now 17 years old, living in Los Angeles, and is signed with Republic Records, whose clients include Taylor Swift, Ariana Grande, The Weeknd, and Drake to name a few. Her family and Republic Records have agreed not to heavily promote her just yet so she can live as normal of a life as possible and finish her schooling. She is working on a new album of original music which will be coming out this year. She recently returned back to Norway and performed at a number of sold out concerts in which fans from around the world came to see her. Many of the fans there said she sounded better live in person and was a once in a lifetime experience. Her fans call her The Barefoot Princess. She always performs with no shoes when she sings in front of an audience. Why? The reason is very special. When she was 6 years old, she was traveling with her family in Iran where she met a shoeless homeless girl in the streets that was about her age. She made money by weighing people. After speaking with her for a few minutes, Angelina noticed the scars on the girl's feet and asked the girl what her dream is. The girl said she wanted to be a doctor but she couldn't because she had to make money for her family. Angelina did what came natural to her, she gave the little girl her shoes and told her to not give up on her dreams. The girl then asked Angelina what her dreams were, Angelina answered that she wanted to be a superstar, and the girl said she would pray for her success. Since then, Angelina has performed barefoot in honor of that little girl and to those who are less fortunate around the world. She keeps this promise to this day. One of the reasons why we love her so much!
At the end of February Angelina performed on the global 2022 FIFA awards ceremony. A TikTok short of her with the stars of FIFA now has over 27M views. Her YT Bohemian Rhapsody videos from AGT's Champions have collective views over 100M. She's making a name for herself world-wide, and the bes is yet to come with the release this year of her first Republic Records album. Hople you continue to react to our Barefoot Princess.
*I'm an Angelina Angel, and really enjoyed your genuine reaction. Think of it this way, we use to, and some still do, buy records so we can listen to them over and over again. The same goes for watching reactions, we're listening to a song over and over, but it's different each time and more enjoyable. It's like sharing a song you like with someone and wanting to hear what they think of it. Well, I don't have to tell you to strap yourself in because I'm sure you already figured that out. You will be hit with thousands of loyal Angelina (Angels) followers, who like me enjoy listening to her music over and over again.*
That was so fun to watch. You've heard the big singers from the last century, and Angelina carries all of them with her. She's been listening to music since she was born, and in particular jazz. She's one of those humans that can absorb a song and pass it on, with her own taste and flavor, to us. What is really crazy is that she has a voice and a wonderful heart to match her unique understanding of music. We're so lucky to be here for it :) And yes, now at 17 years of age she has grown musically and physically into a superstar. Instant subscriber - More AJ reactions please :)
She began singing at 1-1/2...she was raised on Jazz by her grandmother...playing for her all the standards...Ella, Diana, Gershwin, Billie Holiday, Louis, etc. You should check her national debut on Norway's Got Talent, with English subtitles. She is Norwegian...but speaks several languages. Japanese, English, I'd imagine French or Italian. She plays several instruments and writes all her arrangements including this one. It's her Homage to the original artist Screaming Jay Hawkins. You saw his picture she held up on that candle. She sings barefoot every time she sings as a protest to shoeless children. And that's a whole study in itself. She gave her shoes to a shoeless girl she memet in the Mid East and has raised over $10 Million so far. Check her live guitar only seasons. If you want to hear some very impressive recordings besides her debut find her recording at 10 yrs of, I'm still Holding Out for You. And her singing her version of Summer Time with full Orchestra in Kork, Norway. It's different in subtle ways than her tribute to Ella and Billie from Norway's Got Talent. Oh, that was when she was 7 and won it at 8 yrs old.
Yes. She’s 17 now and has signed with Republic Records. She will be putting out a new album this year. She was 8 years old when she won Norway’s Got Talent. At the age of six, she did four studio recordings, my favorite one was “I, who have nothing “. She also wrote a book titled “Between Two Hearts” in which she explains why she performs barefoot. The book is illustrated her grandmother. Besides her singing, she is the youngest published author in Norway.
Great reaction guys, you just stumbled on the future GOAT musical artist. I stumbled on her nearly 5 years ago & have been addicted to her music ever since. I've liked & subed for more Angelina reactions, but you better hurry up because there are a couple of hundred videos. Her popularity & exposure will be "exploding" in a few months with the release of her debut album & global promotion from her record label. I've never seen/heard anything like her, especially her ability to emote the lyrics of a song so that you not only hear them, you feel them. It's otherworldly!!! Congratulations, when anyone discovers Angelina, they are having a great day.
So much about her is remarkable. Try to read all the comments. You guys do a great and will be inundated with comments, information and subscribers. Just a truly amazing story! Her singing talent is only part of it. I’m going to enjoy experiencing your journey with you!
Buckle up... You are in for a shock and a treat. Empress of Jazz gonna steal your heart and demand respect. I really feel she is the best vocalist on ANY stage today. She knows her craft and understands how music gets inside you and she CAN make you laugh, cry, smile, ... Just name the emotion.
Angelina is the best talent on the planet. World class skills, charitable, old school lover of the greats, and does it with ease. 200 covers, and her first album will be out this year. Enjoy the ride, and best wishes.
Mark it on your calendar--the day you made this video is your "Angel Birthday" and now you are counting your Angelina years of your years on Planet Angelina!!! She made her video debut at one and one-half singing Whitney Houston's "I Have Nothing." It is an interchanging of her singing, a recharging drink from her baby bottle, a little more Whitney, and into our world rolls one of life's unexplainable delights. My "Angelina age" is about from two months before her "America's Got Talent" debut at one- and one-half years of age. In it she is interchanging bits of Whitney's "I Have Nothing" with drinks from her clutched baby bottle. Grab hold and enjoy your travels 😮on the "Angelina Magic Carpet ride through space toward Planet Angelina!!!
She's a reincarnation of ALL the great singers ( especially jazz singers ) that had ever came before..She also seems to have that 'old soul' about her...Great reaction my friends. Cheers
I just don’t know where you’ve been.I find it really hard to believe you’ve never heard of her . I’m 70 years old and I’ve loved lots of female singers. but not one of them has the talent Angelina has. She’s truly a miracle sent down from heaven for all of us to enjoy. She never wears shoes when she’s performing because when she was on holiday in Asia with her family she saw a little girl the same age as she was . She noticed she wasn’t wearing shoes and had scares all over her feet. Long story short she took off her new shoes and gave them to the little girl. She vowed then she would not perform with shoes on until every child in the world had shoes. She’s 17 now over 6ft and very Beautiful.The little girl told Angelina she would pray for her every day . Angelina has always reminded this and she’s still true to word . She’s raised millions for children’s charities. She’s very humble and has a heart of gold. Her grandma Mery brought her up on jazz . Angelina can sing anything. Welcome to the world of Angelina. Great Reaction love from Denise in Yorkshire England 🏴👼👼👸🏻👸🏻🦶🦶👍👍
Loved your reaction, I’m here for the ride you’re going to take down the Angelina rabbit hole! (That’s what her Angel’s call it) Angelina is a prodigy specializing in vocals, she also plays piano, violin, flute, and guitar. Angelina is from Norway and speaks Norwegian, Farsi (grandmother is Iranian), English and Japanese. Angelina this year just turned 17 and had just released her first single Million Miles, a song dedicated to her grandfather, and anyone who has lost a loved one recently. Especially with Covid. It said that child singers cannot be emotional since they haven’t lived a life yet, Angelina is the exception to that rule!! She has always been the driving force behind her own singing career. It was her that ask her mother to take her to Norway’s Got Talent, where she auditioned at 7 years old and went on to win the whole show. Here’s the song that you should do next, it really started it all. This is what got her into Norway’s got talent. When you see her mom wiping away tears, she said, and I’m paraphrasing, that that’s when she realized that she has lost Angelina to the world!! ua-cam.com/video/rI6ZhRk86Hs/v-deo.html. Be ready to be blown away!! In an interview after the show, when asked what was she going to do with the prize money. The eight year old replied, “I would like to give it to orphans that need clothes and shoes. When Angelina was nine years old she became the youngest published author in Norway. She did this when she wrote a book about the story of why she doesn’t wear shoes. She doing any of the proceeds from the sales of the book to help children in need. The reason you May have not 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 year’s since NGT, they have turned down offers from many major record labels and even Disney.
Her fans is called "Angels". And they have a huge knowledge about Angelina. They can also be very protective of her as her family is. You will also learn that you will get a lot of views when you react to her. As the angels love to see peoples reaction and become aware of her greatness. Not only is her talant mindblowing but when you learn more about her you will totaly melt. You have well over 160 covers by Angelina and also a few original songs. Angelina is one of the greatest in modern time i shit you not. I wish you welcome into the world of Angelina. Your life won't be the same after this
It was a treat for us to watch you guys react for the first time to Angelina and her incredible artistry. You will have plenty of material to sort through, a decade forth and your reactions will continue to be like this one. Enjoy your journey.
Over 11M views on UA-cam. She was recording this at 8 years old and it was published when she was 9 years, 2 months. Jalacy “Screamin’ Jay” Hawkins is on the Candle. Angelina arranged this at 8 and recorded this at 9. She hands over additional notes, which is then passed on to conductor. He smiles and nods. She has included All the nuances of the original, and of no other artist. How, at 9yrs 2mos, she can get as low as F3, is preposterous! This was first written/composed, then recorded, in 1955. His 1956 recording was selected as one of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's “500 Songs that Shaped Rock and Roll.” This is the recording which Angelina covered! I saw him perform this Live, on American Bandstand. The Link is as follows: 🌸🌺 m.ua-cam.com/video/7kGPhpvqtOc/v-deo.html
And that........ is how this song was meant to be sung! I enjoyed your reaction very much, I've watched it twice already. Mark this day on your calendar as the day you discovered Angelina, I believe it will have a significant impact on the rest of your lives. She is that special, I've never listened to any singer who can touch my heart and soul like she can. From any age! This is my favorite video to watch reactions of, and your facial expressions said it all! I am looking forward to following your journey of discovery with this very very special human being! See you soon!
Hi Guys, I'm new but I am always amazed at her talent. Usually singing Jazz comes with age, but she is an exception. Nobody sings jazz at her age. She will only get better, as we have already said. Her voice is totally a human instrument. Thank you so much
Tiny Little Girl Our tiny little girl with the grownup voice was 17 on Jan. 10, 23 and is now 6'1" tall and could be a super model, but I hope the major portion of her career will be dedicated to her music and taking the world to a better place. I don't think she even realizes this power she holds over us and the need to hear that signature voice to fill that empty void within all of us. Angelina Jordan is in fact the "Benchmark" for all other vocalist to try as they might to achieve. I have a number of pictures of celebrities whose height is known, for example, Austin Butler, who played Elvis, is 6ft tall, and AJ published a picture of her standing next to him, she was at least 1 inch taller than him, and she had to look down at him.
Her first album is cut. It should drop this summer with a Concert tour to launch it. I pray she does not let them burn her out or change her. She is Absolutely Perfect as she is.
I think that is one of the best pieces of music ever recorded. Angelina’s voice is sensational! I mean, who else sings like that? She is my favorite singers of all time. Anyways, for the record, she’s just as incredible now. Just a little older. She is even more beautiful… still has an unbelievably stunning voice. Still has a huge following of amazing fans that all love the heck out of her. Check out her version of “Fly Me To The Moon,” when you get a chance. The that she sung in a yellow dress while rehearsing with an orchestra. That’s one of my all-time favorites, (as if it’s possible to have one). Just turn up the volume, and listen to her voice. It’s as close to perfection as I’ve ever heard; and yet, she made it seam so effortless. Let me know what you think. I do always wonder if other folks like that one as much as I do. ☮️
Brilliant reaction guys. Everyone has already said everything so I have nothing much to add except that I am 100% sure you will thoroughly enjoy your Angelina Jordan journey. There are so many videos for you to watch from 18 months old to present day 17 years.
Ah, first timers, are we? Well, pull up your chairs. You're late to the show, but strap in and let the binge begin. You won't regret finding our little queen of jazz
Welcome to To the rabbit hole. In all my years (I’m 79). I’ve never heard of anyone with the voice that she has. Many listeners have indicated that she is no now as the girl with 1000 voices because she manages to change your voice for each song. as you explore UA-cam because she has almost 200 separate covers you’ll find that she will definitely keep amazing you. My recommendation before you go to her more frequent renditions listen to her version of “feeling good“ she was only 10 years old and it will blow your mind. Pay particular attention to the ending of this song.
She won Norway's got talent at 8. She received 46% of the vote and she was competing against ten other acts. She first started recording when she was 6 years old...
This is the best rabbit hole you will ever go down, i love this girl. Her parents have held her back till she graduated high school and that is this year. She is signed by Republic Records and they have not pushed her to soon. Her album comes out this fall, and we can't wait.She can sing anything.She can turn anything into a jazz song. Have fun!!!!!!!!!
I must tell you that what you said is NOT an exaggeration! Many times, and I mean MANY, I have questioned my inexplicable and unexplainable reaction to this amazing young lady only to conclude that she is EVERYTHING that I believe she is and more!!
I have never had an artist impact me the way that Angelina does. I am thankful to be retired and can start out each day by listening to one or more of her songs. For over three years I have listened to each and every day. She has had such a positive impact on my life.
Welcome 🙏🏻 to the Future Queen of Music! Enjoy 11 years of songs, which totals over 170 between her TWO channels. You're right, not the usual 9 year old. Her writing in the beginning was her "wishes" as she called them, Angelina arranges all her songs. She writes and composes and sings. She speaks multiple languages and plays multiple instruments and has heart of 💛 . She is 17 now, and we all are awaiting her single next month from her debut album as she is about to ignite the world as she steps into the public light a moment she prepared for for a looong time.
She just turned 17 in January and stands over 6' tall. She's a beautiful statue. She's fluent in at least 4 languages and English is her 3rd. She started singing at a year and a half
I am looking forward to your reactions to Angelina going forward. You are now two of Angelina’s Angels and you have so much to look forward to. Welcome aboard.
I have listened to this masterpiece by Angelina hundreds of times, mostly to enjoy new reactions, like yours to this very lovely and talented person. She was nine here, and as you know, is seventeen now and soon to be Republic's main star talent. I will frequently come back to these early beginning performances of Angelina, age six thru nine, for the pleasure of falling in love with her all over again. Here is a list from Rusty Shackleford's channel that covers, chronologically, years 6 thru 17. The first six, at her youngest, are absolutely stunning, and set the stage for you to lose yourself down this beautiful rabbit hole. ua-cam.com/play/PL2v8kgVeo4EbYDVnRwObjETfWpXbzbgIO.html
Congratulations, you just discovered the most intriguing female vocalist of our times. She has hundreds of great recordings before and after this... She signed with Republic Records a couple of years ago and her first album with that label is about to drop towards the end of summer, a single release announced for late April (she recorded one album prior back in Norway called "It's Magic" with some great covers of jazz standards plus a few originals... great album if you love jazz, or just her voice...) Hard to decide on your next one, do you want to see where she is now --> watch some performances from her concerts in Norway last summer, or a music video (Suspicious Minds, I Have Nothing, Easy On Me...) or did you want to see how her rise to stardom began --> watch her performances on Norway Got Talent, incredible performances by a then 7/8 y.o... Subbed for your journey, peace and love from Bavaria!
Next, her Bohemian Rhapsody from AGT Champions 2020, when she was 13. Phenomenal ❣️ When she was 6 yo she promised to perform barefoot until all the children in the world have shoes. She keeps true to that till today. Look for the full story of this - it's inspiring!
Amy and Travis, "Welcome to the Wonderful World of Angelina Jordan!" What a great reaction to our barefoot princess! She is someone very special and you will be receiving all kinds of data (playlists and bio's) about her from her fans (her 'angels'). Not only will you enjoy her music as you begin your journey through the years with her, you will also find out what a beautiful human being she is. 'I Put A Spell On You' is a great introductory piece to listen to because of the uniqueness of the video with so many components sending you into a dizzy spell, but guys, "You ain't seen nothin' yet!" I know it will take a lot of your time but I strongly suggest for you to read the comments (some are very lengthy!) to get a great idea of what she means to us and how she has affected our lives. (?) See what I mean? Strap yourself in and it's so nice for you to join all of us around the world who support her, enjoy her when she sings FOR US, and love her very, very much. Believe me, I don't use the word love very loosely and you will understand very soon what I mean. Oh, I can't leave without telling you, one of Angelina's favorite songs is 'Crazy' and, somewhere Patsy's spirit, wherever it is, smiles whenever it hears Angelina sing 'Crazy'. There are many video's of her singing the song, with bands or with just a guitar player and, take your pick, they are all great.
Her fully name is Angelina Jordan Astar. From Norway 🇳🇴 The girl with the 1000 voices. Ohh yeah she's the boss, the band call her boss. She has a finger in everything. Best regards from Norway 🇳🇴
I first saw this video a few years ago and I love watching 1st-time reactions to her. I have been in awe of her talent ever since my first viewing of her. Everything she sings is so well done that no matter what you view, you will be impressed. Since you are from the south, be sure to check out her versions of Crazy originally by Patsy Cline and Suspicious Minds which was a huge hit by Elvis. Enjoy your journey on Angelina's Magical Carpet Ride ! 🤗

She arranges all her music and the band on all you songs. The bands all call her the Boss and really admire her. She is a really amazing young girl. She just gets better every time. She is now 17 and first LP will very soon be out. Blessings from a 76 year old gran from South Africa
Angelina Jordan is 17 years old in 2023. The bare feet has an incredible story. Next one: Age 13, Bohemian Rhapsody at AGT Champions (she participates as a 2014 winner of Norway's Got Talent). It is her own arrangement. You picked up on so much watching this video. Great reaction, Folks. Grandma Ellen, out.
Angelina is a musical genius that was born with her abilities. I put her in the same company as Mozart or Bach. I'm 63 years old and have loved all kinds of music my whole life. I've never heard anything like her. If you listen, you'll not just hear the music you'll feel the music. Even when she covers other artists songs, it's like she takes it to the next level. She's just amazing
Last year at 56, Angelina quickly made me rethink and reassess my ideas on religion and mythology; considering reincarnation seriously for the first time, or ready to assert she is the goddess of vocal song once convinced that gods and goddesses truly walk the Earth, and new thoughts on Revelations.
70 year old and have heard it all...until now. Re-discovered real music once again in my life.....Thankyou Angelina Jordan Astar and your wonderful family.❤❤
I'm 60 and agree 100%. I couldn't have said it better or more precisely. The label "genius" is greatly overused imho, but Angelina is a true genius, and the first singer I would assign that label to. She is our Mozart.
This young lady is almost a adult now and her work through the years has been beautiful I am happy to see you found her definitely one of the good ones she is genuinely a great person and Humble definitely watch more you will be captivated like this song she puts a spell on you
She’s also Norway’s youngest published author. She wrote a book about her an experience she had in the Middle East when she was six years old. In it she explains why she chooses to perform barefoot as a reminder to herself of the less fortunate children in the world without shoes, family, and food. She still performs barefoot to this day on the largest stages in the world.
Won Norway's Got Talent at 7 yo, finished 3rd in America's Got Talent Champions at 13, is a best selling author (youngest in Norway's history its said), humanitarian (why she performs barefoot), arranger (she arranges most of her music, even in this video you see her writing notes to the producer), AND now at 17 her voice is bigger, stronger, and fabulous...enjoy the trip.
- The Barefoot Princess - (From her book, television and radio interviews, and podcasts made between 2014-2015. Includes excerpts from her diary made that day in 2012.) Why does Angelina sing barefooted? Angelina Jordan is known as "The Barefoot Princess" or "The Barefoot Princess of Jazz," amongst many other names. She always performs barefooted, whether in front of a live audience or during a studio performance. The story is that while living in the Middle East, at 6 years old, Angelina came across an orphaned girl, of her own age, sitting in the street, weighing people on a bathroom scale to earn money. Angelina said to herself, "I would like to share her life for one second to know what it is like to sit alone, wet, and damp, and barefoot in a corner of the street." Angelina could see the girl's bare feet were scarred and that it was cold outside, so she offered her own shoes to the girl. Little Angelina says that she really loved her shoes, as they were very nice and she knew she would miss them. But she saw the other little girl’s need for them, which outweighed her own desire to keep them. So she insisted the little girl take them. Angelina called her Princess, even though the girl said she didn't live in a castle, but the ruins of a building next to where she sat. After sharing their hopes and dreams, the little girl said of Angelina's wish to sing for the world, "You will become the one you dream of and when your dreams come true, you have to remember the poor children without shoes; and I will pray for you Angelina.” Later that day, 6 y/o Angelina wrote in her diary, "The world is very strange. Right then and there, I felt as if a door in my heart opened up, and it was filled with lots of lights. It was as if there was, from Earth to Heaven, a staircase. I climbed the stairs. To be able to do something for another human - it was such a big thing…hard to describe really.” From that point on, Angelina takes off her shoes, in honor of ‘Princess’ and all the other less fortunate children of the world, who are orphaned, hungry, or in want of even basic clothing. In 2015, at the age of 9, Angelina wrote a book about the encounter, as everyone continued to ask why she sang barefoot. Her grandmother, Mery Zamani, created the artwork for the book. So at 9, Angelina Jordan became the youngest published author in Norway. Angelina has performed alongside many other artists, raising attention and helping to raise over 21 million euros and millions of dollars for children in need.
Wow! You guys have alot more patience than I do!! Once Angelina hit me with one of her songs , I couldn't let a day go without jumping down the rabbit hole. That was like seven years ago, and I don't believe that I have missed a single day listening to her since.
Welcome in one of the most wonderful musical 'rabbit holes' there is. It did started for Angelina in 2013-2014, when she was 7 years of age: that season she won Norway Got Talent at the age of 8 (she is Norwegian, so English is not her first language). When you add to your search on UA-cam the word 'subtitles' you will often (not always) find videos with English subtitles. A nice way to get more information about Angelina is watching the British documentary (yes, completely subtitled) about her on UA-cam 'Angelina Jordan, Born to sing 2006 - 2014', which is showing the early years.
Hi you 2 👋. That was an amazing reaction to 9 Angelina. I give new Angie reactors a welcome pack, please read. She chooses all her own songs & does all her own arrangements ever since she was very young, even when she did Screaming Jay Hawkins “I put a spell on you” the B&W at barely 9, even at 7 & 8 on NGT (Norway’s Got Talent) all 4 songs. On AGT-C Audition, Angie made her outfit from silkscreen patterns of her grandma's art work when she was 13 back in Norway. She makes several of her other outfits for shows & concerts too. She also paints great, plays 5 instruments & speaks & sings 4+ languages, English being her 3rd. Angie turned 17 on 1-10-23. Angie is a very kind, giving, loving, respectful, humble & a big hearted Christian girl. She always sings barefoot when performing & she wrote a book about it at 9 called “Between Two Hearts” & she was/is the youngest to be published in Norway. (Angie has always been the driving force behind her dreams) (Why does Angie performs barefoot. Please watch. Angelina gives a short little interview explaining why she performs barefoot. ua-cam.com/video/-cCLDY0CSZ8/v-deo.html) Angie has arranged over 160 covers & written 5 songs & has had 2 written for her also & she’s mastered over 10 genre’s already. One of her nicknames is “The barefoot princess of a 1000 voices” & the "Queen of jazz". Angie never sings a song the same way twice, so you could say they’ll all be 1st time reactions. Angie sings like an instrumentalist, combinded with narrative music, another reason she’s so especially rare & great. Her musicality & music intelligence have always been of the charts, (Prodigy)
Choose wisely!!! This is the musical journey of a lifetime. AJ has close to 200 covers, shorts and 5 originals. Suggest you go back to her public debut, Norways Got Talent when she was 7/8 Four stellar mind blowing performances to win it all. Other virgin AJ reactors have worked their way up from 6/7 and enjoyed watching the growth. No other artist has so much early content that I'm aware. Onward.
First off, let me say how much I enjoyed your 'reactions'. You didn't pause every 30 seconds to review what you saw, the 'reactions' on your faces told us how much you were enjoying this performance. It has been a while since I have enjoyed a reaction video as much as I enjoyed this one, so I am subscribing in hopes of seeing the two of you do many more Angelina reactions. Angelina entered Norway's Got Talent at 7 years old and won the whole thing just after turning 8. She always performs barefoot in public after befriending a homeless, shoeless girl about her age, when she was 6. She wrote a book about this encounter when she was 9, and became Norway's youngest published author. She has helped raise millions of dollars for children in need. Not only is she an amazing talent musically, (she plays 4 instruments) she speaks at least 3 languages other than her native Norwegian. This young lady (now 17) sings with more feeling and emotion than anyone I have heard in my 68 years. I listen to her several times every day. Here is a list of videos (you just did one of them) that I feel are "MUST SEE", use them as you see fit. From her first time in a studio to her latest cover of Adele at 16, these are just a few of her around 200 videos. I look forward to following your journey, and her 'Angels' (her name for her fans) will offer up all types of info and requests. 6 years old-first time in a studio singing "I Who Have Nothing": ua-cam.com/video/OtPkxHf_r0M/v-deo.html 7 years old audition for Norway's Got Talent singing "Gloomy Sunday" by Billie Holiday ua-cam.com/video/d3gSho9yf88/v-deo.html 8 years old Finals of Norway's Got Talent singing "Summertime" (turn on closed captions) ua-cam.com/video/zN4kAof1is0/v-deo.html 8 years old on 'The View' singing "Fly Me To The Moon'': ua-cam.com/video/nBGMQ9Kx9iI/v-deo.html 9 years old black and white tribute to Screamin' Jay Hawkins "I Put A Spell On You": ua-cam.com/video/nwFloCPXzCs/v-deo.html 10 years old leaked video of her demo of "I'm Still Holding Out For You": ua-cam.com/video/Dv8mjCh5iiE/v-deo.html 10 years old at "LIVE on The Stream Gir Tilbake" singing "Feeling Good": ua-cam.com/video/p8kAL-sGJx8/v-deo.html 10 years old (audio only) cover of Gloria Gaynor's "I Will Survive" ua-cam.com/video/ma7sa_n7k-8/v-deo.html 12 years old "How Great Thou Art": ua-cam.com/video/WLAEy1LIHrc/v-deo.html 12 years old Lana Del Rey cover "Born To Die" ua-cam.com/video/DNU-HcLuO_I/v-deo.html 12 years old at Forsvarets Stabsmusikkorps - Oslo - 16.06.2018 singing James Brown's "It's A Mans World": ua-cam.com/video/HEm7tGrjIKk/v-deo.html 12 years old (almost 13) "Tribute to Whitney Houston-I Have Nothing": ua-cam.com/video/eTcvvO6B3Io/v-deo.html 13 years old on America's Got Talent singing her arrangement of "Bohemian Rhapsody" by Queen: ua-cam.com/video/qF0JV28vgLw/v-deo.html 13 years old another Queen cover "The Show Must Go On": ua-cam.com/video/6NJv02ot5jg/v-deo.html 13 years old written for her by TRXD a Norwegian EDM (electronic dance music) duo, "Above The Water": ua-cam.com/video/rpdHJJQAd9Y/v-deo.html 14 years old, Original written about her grandfather that passed away, "Million Miles": ua-cam.com/video/3KxvwuZ7oEM/v-deo.html 15 years old Original about never giving up hope, "7th Heaven": ua-cam.com/video/bM8DzMRbiIc/v-deo.html 15 years old, cover of Adele's "Easy On Me": ua-cam.com/video/Mpw5Q76hWWE/v-deo.html 16 years old cover of "My Funny Valentine" more recent video: ua-cam.com/video/bWiLOnHJYxg/v-deo.html 16 years old, latest cover and tribute to Elvis, of "Suspicious Minds" ua-cam.com/video/RTbKhkceR00/v-deo.html 16 years old, her latest cover of Whitney Houston's "I Have Nothing" ua-cam.com/video/iX0g99jN26U/v-deo.html

Hello you TWO, Angelina Jordan (AJ) was discovered by her mom, singing into a microphone at age 1,5. Angelina found Jazz and Soul at age 2 and decided to practice singing for 36 hours a week at age 3. When age 4 she entered the academy of music and performing arts for technical advise, late she did the same in LA, where she resides since 2019. She auditioned for Norway Gots Talent at age 7 and half a year later won the competition as the youngest ever. She was ennobled as the Treasure of Norway by King and Country in late summer 2014 at age 8. Vocal experts (I´m talking of opera singers and professional Vocal educators) see in her the next GOAT of Jazz and Soul. Today, in 2023 she celebrated her 17th birthday on January 10th. She still is a humble person, well behaved with immens patience for others. When 8 years old she participated in Berlin in a TV show "Ein Herz fuer Kinder" (a heart for the children) and gathered withother stars 21 MILLION Deutsch Mark. In the time from 2014 to 2020 she helped gathering and donating money for child charity and eco causes (singing at charities) about 30 MILLION USD. She also helps the community of homeless people in LA with food and maybe sometimes, like her beloved japanese grandfather, a job. My dear co-commenters and co-angels (SHE calls us that) will help you with their comments. You be safe and happy. Elmar from Germany.
This is the link to Angelina starting at age 18 months, singing two phrases to Whitney Houston’s ‘I’ll Always Love You’ when most children are uttering their first words (someone heard a quote from her mother that much more was sung as she ran to get her phone to record): m.UA-cam.com/watch?v=VJjG68Dfr-8&t=115 1:53 to 2:10 (this is a very brief 15 second home video in the middle of a longer TV interview)
@@frontrowchaos4597 I try to share what I know/learned from others. It is the only way to bring us humans forward, when we sharr knowledge and other things. Be safe.
So many comments ahead of mine, but welcome to the best singer you have ever heard. You have a world of vocal artistry ahead of you with Angelina. Todays song is extraordinary, but just a glimpse into what Angelina can do. She will blow you away again and again and again. She is once in a lifetime.
A barefoot princess with a hypnotic voice. She was only 9 years old when she performed this song. It is her tribute to Screamin' Jay Hawkins, an American singer/songwriter. He wrote and performed it in 1956 and Angelina based her performance on the original, although she did make some subtle alterations to both lyrics and melody. As you continue your journey of discovering Angelina, you will come to realise that she does her own arrangements of most of the cover songs she sings. The differences may not be immediately discernible on first listening to them, but they are there. There may be a subtle change in tempo or tone, or more inflexion on some words, or a phrase may differ in pitch from the original. The amount of control that Angelina has over her voice cannot be measured. She never hurries a song. She sings in such a way that the emotions in the lyrics are felt by the listener. In this video did you notice:Angelina finishing some notes and handing them to the pianist, who smiled as he read them? They were her wishes (instructions) to the band how she wished therm to play the music. In the band, she was called a boss
Ok, let’s GO! I’ve been watching Angelina for almost 4 years and my addiction has me checking out her reaction videos twice a day, every day. I’ll let my fellow “Angels” fill you in on all of her background. Love to watch you see her progress each year from 1&1/2 to now at 17. Skip around if you choose, but don’t miss all of her NGT shows age 7~8, her live concerts 8~ 11, Guitar after dinner at home at 12, AGT age 13, Republic Records introductions at 14, and now at 17 preforming for 300 million live on TV at the FIFA soccer awards show last month in Paris. At 6’ tall she towers over every other singer man, woman or whatever as a singer, song writer, arranger - genius. Best wishes from Alaska and I subscribed for Angelina.
Angelina Jordan Is all the biggest artists in one body
She plays piano/keyboard, guitar, violin and flute, has written several song, and was the youngest person in Norway to publish a book at age 9.
I love watching people's faces when they first hear Angelina Jordan! priceless!
She is a timing machine. She is out of this world.
My reaction to this was identical to yours. I now have listened to over 100 of Angelina's videos and I can't get enough. She is totally amazing. God bless her for bringing joy to the world in this trying time.
Thanks for the reaction to our angel Angelina…she’s simply the best…❤
Think about this performance in light of Norwegian as her first language, English as her second language, and Farsi as her third...at the age of 9. Angelina is incredible.
Holy cow! She is talented!
Angelina Jordan Bohemian Rhapsody AGT
There were 4 vignettes that relate directly to her life. The bare feet she will always perform bare footed because of a street girl who had scales and was guessing peoples weight to earn money long story somebody will write better, she promised as a remembarence of this girl to always perform that way. It also serves as a reminder to to the rest of us that there are many people who have no shoes or even have the choice to wear their shoes or not. She even wrote a children's book, around this time of this video, that was illustrated by her grandma Mery Zamani who was a child prodigy in painting and poetry growing up in Iran. The second scene she is making changes to the score at the last minute. Angelina not only picks the songs she will sing, but she also arranges them how she wants them to be played. While singing is her main gift she has become a first class arranger. She started learning composition and theory at around 5-6 years old. And she is definitely in charge, the musicians who played with her gave her the nickname 'The Boss' at around 6. Angelina is not just a great singer she is a musician. She hears a song, likes it, sings it for awhile and the ideas start to come. When she decides how she wants the song to go that is it and she will not be deterred in her singing it her way.
The third scene is of her partner in crime, grandma Mery who started introducing Angelina to Jazz and eventually Billie Holiday. Who was a major influence to desire to sing. (Oh, an add-on to the shoe story, that I feel is interesting. The shoes that Angelina gave the girl were her !!!favorite!!! pair of boots. I do not know what favorite means, or meant to you when 6 years old. But I can tell you if they were my favorite anything, she would still be bare foot. When I was 5-6 years old the things that meant everything to me were the clothes I wore, usually the same thing 3-4 days in a row with Mom stealing them at night to wash them. For which I still nurture a grudge though she has been gone almost 20 years.)
The final scene was her candle with the picture of the original artist and writer of this song, Screamin' Jay Hawkins. A muscical genius whose music struck a cord with Angelina and here it is.
She has done this little vignette thing a couple of times they're not just cutesy things, they tell an important part of her life to that point. So until the next time.
Thanks for the info! She really is something special.
The best singer on the planet. Everything she does is awesome.
WHen she (age 7) was on Norway's got talent, one of the judges remarked: she must have been drinking whiskey since she was 2 years old. Same reaction you had.
Strap yourselves in, guys. You are in for the ride of your life. She has flown under the radar of most folks until now on purpose. Her family decided early on that she would have as normal a childhood as possible, so they purportedly refused offers from some heavyweights in the industry. You're going to find out that there are LOTS of videos of her performing in summer concerts and at charity events as well as even more of her simply singing into a camera at home. Anyway, she is 17 now and graduating this year. She signed with Republic Records when she was 14, and it has been reported that one of the conditions was that they NOT promote her until she finished school. Well, we are on the doorstep of that event now. She is not only an incredible musical prodigy but a golden soul as well. Get to know her and I have a feeling you'll be joining the community of her supporters that she calls her Angels...I'm looking forward to accompanying you on your adventure!
Thank you friend for informing new reactors about our AJ.
Bless you.
Elmar from Germany.
And we cannot wait
Excellent synopsis of this incredible young talent Dharmabum! Well said. Of course, there’s SO much to know about Angelina the person… the beautiful human being that she is.
Let the journey begin… 😉
❤️❤️❤️👣
Welcome to the amazing and wonderful world of Angelina Jordan 🙂
Accurately stated. AJ is a prodigy. A genuine phenom. Any singers you’ve known in the past whom many thought were prodigies, but simply impressed because they were young, eg; Shirley Temple, Judy Garland, Brenda Lee or Michael Jackson etc, none come close to this level. Not at 7-9 yrs of age. None of them.
But this young girl has reset the bar at a level so high… I just don’t see any other person at that age past or present come close. The blonde girl, Evancho or however her name his spelled , she is an operatic singer and very good. But not like this. And the crazy thing is, how AJ takes great songs from great singers like Billie, Nora, Adele and even Whitney, and makes their songs sound fresh and original and unique.
Anyway, you detailed everything so much better than I ever could.
I just think she’s the best ever and I’m 70 years old. I shouldn’t feel this way … and that’s the spell AJ has put on all of us.
Nice first reaction! Oh boy, you are going to be bombarded by her fans called Angels that will fill you in on this music prodigy with an old soul from Norway. She's basically been a star since she was 7 years old. First and foremost, she is a jazz singer but has the ability to sing any genre. She also does all of her own musical arrangements. Her early influences are Billie Holiday, Dinah Washington, and Etta James to name a few. Her love of jazz came from her grandmother playing jazz music around her when she was young. In 2014, she entered and won Norway's Got Talent at the age of 8. With her new found fame, she used it to appear on many shows from abroad and help raise millions for the less fortunate children around the world. At age 13, she was invited to participate on America's Got Talent: The Champions in 2020. She shocked the audience and the judges with her rendition of Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen. She received a standing ovation from all and got the Golden Buzzer from judge Heidi Klum to go straight to the Finals. Her performance went viral and even the group Queen responded on Twitter by saying, " Wow, what a rendition!" Not only that, but she received the copyrights for her version of this song from Queen, which makes it hers now. She did not win, but her fan base grew and expanded her popularity.
Now 17 years old, living in Los Angeles, and is signed with Republic Records, whose clients include Taylor Swift, Ariana Grande, The Weeknd, and Drake to name a few. Her family and Republic Records have agreed not to heavily promote her just yet so she can live as normal of a life as possible and finish her schooling. She is working on a new album of original music which will be coming out this year. She recently returned back to Norway and performed at a number of sold out concerts in which fans from around the world came to see her. Many of the fans there said she sounded better live in person and was a once in a lifetime experience.
Her fans call her The Barefoot Princess. She always performs with no shoes when she sings in front of an audience. Why? The reason is very special. When she was 6 years old, she was traveling with her family in Iran where she met a shoeless homeless girl in the streets that was about her age. She made money by weighing people. After speaking with her for a few minutes, Angelina noticed the scars on the girl's feet and asked the girl what her dream is. The girl said she wanted to be a doctor but she couldn't because she had to make money for her family. Angelina did what came natural to her, she gave the little girl her shoes and told her to not give up on her dreams. The girl then asked Angelina what her dreams were, Angelina answered that she wanted to be a superstar, and the girl said she would pray for her success. Since then, Angelina has performed barefoot in honor of that little girl and to those who are less fortunate around the world. She keeps this promise to this day. One of the reasons why we love her so much!
Such a nice young lady! Thanks for the info.
At the end of February Angelina performed on the global 2022 FIFA awards ceremony. A TikTok short of her with the stars of FIFA now has over 27M views. Her YT Bohemian Rhapsody videos from AGT's Champions have collective views over 100M. She's making a name for herself world-wide, and the bes is yet to come with the release this year of her first Republic Records album. Hople you continue to react to our Barefoot Princess.
*I'm an Angelina Angel, and really enjoyed your genuine reaction. Think of it this way, we use to, and some still do, buy records so we can listen to them over and over again. The same goes for watching reactions, we're listening to a song over and over, but it's different each time and more enjoyable. It's like sharing a song you like with someone and wanting to hear what they think of it. Well, I don't have to tell you to strap yourself in because I'm sure you already figured that out. You will be hit with thousands of loyal Angelina (Angels) followers, who like me enjoy listening to her music over and over again.*
Thank you! Appreciate your time!
That was so fun to watch. You've heard the big singers from the last century, and Angelina carries all of them with her. She's been listening to music since she was born, and in particular jazz. She's one of those humans that can absorb a song and pass it on, with her own taste and flavor, to us. What is really crazy is that she has a voice and a wonderful heart to match her unique understanding of music. We're so lucky to be here for it :)
And yes, now at 17 years of age she has grown musically and physically into a superstar.
Instant subscriber - More AJ reactions please :)
Thank you so much for your view, comment and SUB! We will definitely be doing more AJ soon!
She began singing at 1-1/2...she was raised on Jazz by her grandmother...playing for her all the standards...Ella, Diana, Gershwin, Billie Holiday, Louis, etc. You should check her national debut on Norway's Got Talent, with English subtitles. She is Norwegian...but speaks several languages. Japanese, English, I'd imagine French or Italian. She plays several instruments and writes all her arrangements including this one. It's her Homage to the original artist Screaming Jay Hawkins. You saw his picture she held up on that candle. She sings barefoot every time she sings as a protest to shoeless children. And that's a whole study in itself. She gave her shoes to a shoeless girl she memet in the Mid East and has raised over $10 Million so far. Check her live guitar only seasons. If you want to hear some very impressive recordings besides her debut find her recording at 10 yrs of, I'm still Holding Out for You. And her singing her version of Summer Time with full Orchestra in Kork, Norway. It's different in subtle ways than her tribute to Ella and Billie from Norway's Got Talent. Oh, that was when she was 7 and won it at 8 yrs old.
Yes. She’s 17 now and has signed with Republic Records. She will be putting out a new album this year. She was 8 years old when she won Norway’s Got Talent. At the age of six, she did four studio recordings, my favorite one was “I, who have nothing “. She also wrote a book titled “Between Two Hearts” in which she explains why she performs barefoot. The book is illustrated her grandmother. Besides her singing, she is the youngest published author in Norway.
Great reaction guys, you just stumbled on the future GOAT musical artist. I stumbled on her nearly 5 years ago & have been addicted to her music ever since. I've liked & subed for more Angelina reactions, but you better hurry up because there are a couple of hundred videos. Her popularity & exposure will be "exploding" in a few months with the release of her debut album & global promotion from her record label. I've never seen/heard anything like her, especially her ability to emote the lyrics of a song so that you not only hear them, you feel them. It's otherworldly!!! Congratulations, when anyone discovers Angelina, they are having a great day.
I agree! Thanks for the view and comment!
So much about her is remarkable. Try to read all the comments. You guys do a great and will be inundated with comments, information and subscribers. Just a truly amazing story! Her singing talent is only part of it. I’m going to enjoy experiencing your journey with you!
Well said! Thank you so much for your support!
Buckle up... You are in for a shock and a treat. Empress of Jazz gonna steal your heart and demand respect. I really feel she is the best vocalist on ANY stage today. She knows her craft and understands how music gets inside you and she CAN make you laugh, cry, smile, ... Just name the emotion.
Join the AJ rabbit hole. You will not be disappointed. The girl is amazing.
There is a whole world of Angelina to discover. This little girl from Norway is no normal little girl. She is THE voice of our generation.
Angelina is the best talent on the planet. World class skills, charitable, old school lover of the greats, and does it with ease. 200 covers, and her first album will be out this year. Enjoy the ride, and best wishes.
Mark it on your calendar--the day you made this video is your "Angel Birthday" and now you are counting your Angelina years of your years on Planet Angelina!!!
She made her video debut at one and one-half singing Whitney Houston's
"I Have Nothing." It is an interchanging of her singing, a recharging drink from her baby bottle, a little more Whitney, and into our world rolls one of life's unexplainable delights.
My "Angelina age" is about from two months before her "America's Got Talent"
debut at one- and one-half years of age. In it she is interchanging bits of Whitney's
"I Have Nothing" with drinks from her clutched baby bottle.
Grab hold and enjoy your travels 😮on the "Angelina Magic Carpet ride through space toward Planet Angelina!!!
You got it, the band refers to her as The Little Boss. She is absolu8tely the best, stunning.
She's a reincarnation of ALL the great singers ( especially jazz singers ) that had ever came before..She also seems to have that 'old soul' about her...Great reaction my friends. Cheers
I just don’t know where you’ve been.I find it really hard to believe you’ve never heard of her . I’m 70 years old and I’ve loved lots of female singers. but not one of them has the talent Angelina has. She’s truly a miracle sent down from heaven for all of us to enjoy. She never wears shoes when she’s performing because when she was on holiday in Asia with her family she saw a little girl the same age as she was . She noticed she wasn’t wearing shoes and had scares all over her feet. Long story short she took off her new shoes and gave them to the little girl. She vowed then she would not perform with shoes on until every child in the world had shoes. She’s 17 now over 6ft and very Beautiful.The little girl told Angelina she would pray for her every day . Angelina has always reminded this and she’s still true to word . She’s raised millions for children’s charities. She’s very humble and has a heart of gold. Her grandma Mery brought her up on jazz . Angelina can sing anything. Welcome to the world of Angelina. Great Reaction love from Denise in Yorkshire England 🏴👼👼👸🏻👸🏻🦶🦶👍👍
Love you Denise! Thanks for the view and comment. Apparently I have been under a rock, as I have not heard of her before. I am so glad I now know her.
Loved your reaction, I’m here for the ride you’re going to take down the Angelina rabbit hole! (That’s what her Angel’s call it)
Angelina is a prodigy specializing in vocals, she also plays piano, violin, flute, and guitar. Angelina is from Norway and speaks Norwegian, Farsi (grandmother is Iranian), English and Japanese. Angelina this year just turned 17 and had just released her first single Million Miles, a song dedicated to her grandfather, and anyone who has lost a loved one recently. Especially with Covid. It said that child singers cannot be emotional since they haven’t lived a life yet, Angelina is the exception to that rule!!
She has always been the driving force behind her own singing career. It was her that ask her mother to take her to Norway’s Got Talent, where she auditioned at 7 years old and went on to win the whole show. Here’s the song that you should do next, it really started it all. This is what got her into Norway’s got talent. When you see her mom wiping away tears, she said, and I’m paraphrasing, that that’s when she realized that she has lost Angelina to the world!! ua-cam.com/video/rI6ZhRk86Hs/v-deo.html. Be ready to be blown away!! In an interview after the show, when asked what was she going to do with the prize money. The eight year old replied, “I would like to give it to orphans that need clothes and shoes.
When Angelina was nine years old she became the youngest published author in Norway. She did this when she wrote a book about the story of why she doesn’t wear shoes. She doing any of the proceeds from the sales of the book to help children in need.
The reason you May have not 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 year’s since NGT, they have turned down offers from many major record labels and even Disney.
Her fans is called "Angels". And they have a huge knowledge about Angelina. They can also be very protective of her as her family is. You will also learn that you will get a lot of views when you react to her. As the angels love to see peoples reaction and become aware of her greatness. Not only is her talant mindblowing but when you learn more about her you will totaly melt.
You have well over 160 covers by Angelina and also a few original songs. Angelina is one of the greatest in modern time i shit you not. I wish you welcome into the world of Angelina. Your life won't be the same after this
It was a treat for us to watch you guys react for the first time to Angelina and her incredible artistry. You will have plenty of material to sort through, a decade forth and your reactions will continue to be like this one. Enjoy your journey.
Welcome to club "Angels"! I am so happy to see more and more folks getting to know AJ...she will be a household name soon!
Over 11M views on UA-cam. She was recording this at 8 years old and it was published when she was 9 years, 2 months.
Jalacy “Screamin’ Jay” Hawkins is on the Candle. Angelina arranged this at 8 and recorded this at 9. She hands over additional notes, which is then passed on to conductor. He smiles and nods. She has included All the nuances of the original, and of no other artist. How, at 9yrs 2mos, she can get as low as F3, is preposterous! This was first written/composed, then recorded, in 1955. His 1956 recording was selected as one of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's “500 Songs that Shaped Rock and Roll.” This is the recording which Angelina covered!
I saw him perform this Live, on American Bandstand. The Link is as follows: 🌸🌺 m.ua-cam.com/video/7kGPhpvqtOc/v-deo.html
And that........ is how this song was meant to be sung! I enjoyed your reaction very much, I've watched it twice already. Mark this day on your calendar as the day you discovered Angelina, I believe it will have a significant impact on the rest of your lives. She is that special, I've never listened to any singer who can touch my heart and soul like she can. From any age! This is my favorite video to watch reactions of, and your facial expressions said it all! I am looking forward to following your journey of discovery with this very very special human being! See you soon!
Hi Guys, I'm new but I am always amazed at her talent. Usually singing Jazz comes with age, but she is an exception. Nobody sings jazz at her age. She will only get better, as we have already said. Her voice is totally a human instrument. Thank you so much
Thanks for coming on this journey with us!
She has over 160 songs to choose from, enjoy the journey that is Angelina Jordan, you're in for a ride.
she is a teen now, 17 and she is so beautiful, you have to hear her stuff... she is a special kinda kid, so talented.
Tiny Little Girl
Our tiny little girl with the grownup voice was 17 on Jan. 10, 23 and is now 6'1" tall and could be a super model, but I hope the major portion of her career will be dedicated to her music and taking the world to a better place. I don't think she even realizes this power she holds over us and the need to hear that signature voice to fill that empty void within all of us. Angelina Jordan is in fact the "Benchmark" for all other vocalist to try as they might to achieve. I have a number of pictures of celebrities whose height is known, for example, Austin Butler, who played Elvis, is 6ft tall, and AJ published a picture of her standing next to him, she was at least 1 inch taller than him, and she had to look down at him.
Her first album is cut. It should drop this summer with a Concert tour to launch it. I pray she does not let them burn her out or change her. She is Absolutely Perfect as she is.
First album It's Magic was released in 2018.
I think that is one of the best pieces of music ever recorded. Angelina’s voice is sensational! I mean, who else sings like that? She is my favorite singers of all time. Anyways, for the record, she’s just as incredible now. Just a little older. She is even more beautiful… still has an unbelievably stunning voice. Still has a huge following of amazing fans that all love the heck out of her. Check out her version of “Fly Me To The Moon,” when you get a chance. The that she sung in a yellow dress while rehearsing with an orchestra. That’s one of my all-time favorites, (as if it’s possible to have one). Just turn up the volume, and listen to her voice. It’s as close to perfection as I’ve ever heard; and yet, she made it seam so effortless. Let me know what you think. I do always wonder if other folks like that one as much as I do. ☮️
Brilliant reaction guys. Everyone has already said everything so I have nothing much to add except that I am 100% sure you will thoroughly enjoy your Angelina Jordan journey. There are so many videos for you to watch from 18 months old to present day 17 years.
Can't wait!
She’s a tiny musical giant here..she’s now a 6ft musical giant.
Ah, first timers, are we? Well, pull up your chairs. You're late to the show, but strap in and let the binge begin. You won't regret finding our little queen of jazz
Welcome to To the rabbit hole. In all my years (I’m 79). I’ve never heard of anyone with the voice that she has. Many listeners have indicated that she is no now as the girl with 1000 voices because she manages to change your voice for each song. as you explore UA-cam because she has almost 200 separate covers you’ll find that she will definitely keep amazing you. My recommendation before you go to her more frequent renditions listen to her version of “feeling good“ she was only 10 years old and it will blow your mind. Pay particular attention to the ending of this song.
She won Norway's got talent at 8. She received 46% of the vote and she was competing against ten other acts. She first started recording when she was 6 years old...
Strap yourselves in.. maybe the best voice in generations. You’re about to go down a rabbit hole you had no idea existed.
This is the best rabbit hole you will ever go down, i love this girl. Her parents have held her back till she graduated high school and that is this year. She is signed by Republic Records and they have not pushed her to soon. Her album comes out this fall, and we can't wait.She can sing anything.She can turn anything into a jazz song. Have fun!!!!!!!!!
Angelina has from Norway she speaks three languages in English is not her first pay several instruments. He’s a prodigy.
You are entering the world of Angelina Jordan !
Good luck !
Addiction is coming to you !
Actually the best female singer on our planet ! !
That's right she is a 9 on this one.
I am completely addicted to her music.
She is the best thing that happened to me in my 54 years on this planet.
I must tell you that what you said is NOT an exaggeration! Many times, and I mean MANY, I have questioned my inexplicable and unexplainable reaction to this amazing young lady only to conclude that she is EVERYTHING that I believe she is and more!!
Addicted is right. Like many others have said, I have been compelled to listen to Angelina daily (at length) since the first day I heard her sing.
I have never had an artist impact me the way that Angelina does. I am thankful to be retired and can start out each day by listening to one or more of her songs. For over three years I have listened to each and every day. She has had such a positive impact on my life.
Listening to Angelina is a great way to return to sanity after experiencing some of the craziness in our world today.
Welcome 🙏🏻 to the Future Queen of Music! Enjoy 11 years of songs, which totals over 170 between her TWO channels. You're right, not the usual 9 year old. Her writing in the beginning was her "wishes" as she called them, Angelina arranges all her songs. She writes and composes and sings. She speaks multiple languages and plays multiple instruments and has heart of 💛 . She is 17 now, and we all are awaiting her single next month from her debut album as she is about to ignite the world as she steps into the public light a moment she prepared for for a looong time.
She just turned 17 in January and stands over 6' tall. She's a beautiful statue. She's fluent in at least 4 languages and English is her 3rd. She started singing at a year and a half
This is not her lowest range. Watch how great thou art for that.
She could dredge gravel out of a ship channel with her low range.
I am looking forward to your reactions to Angelina going forward. You are now two of Angelina’s Angels and you have so much to look forward to. Welcome aboard.
I have listened to this masterpiece by Angelina hundreds of times, mostly to enjoy new reactions, like yours to this very lovely and talented person. She was nine here, and as you know, is seventeen now and soon to be Republic's main star talent. I will frequently come back to these early beginning performances of Angelina, age six thru nine, for the pleasure of falling in love with her all over again. Here is a list from Rusty Shackleford's channel that covers, chronologically, years 6 thru 17. The first six, at her youngest, are absolutely stunning, and set the stage for you to lose yourself down this beautiful rabbit hole.
ua-cam.com/play/PL2v8kgVeo4EbYDVnRwObjETfWpXbzbgIO.html
Thank you for that info. We will check it out! Have a great day!
Congratulations, you just discovered the most intriguing female vocalist of our times. She has hundreds of great recordings before and after this... She signed with Republic Records a couple of years ago and her first album with that label is about to drop towards the end of summer, a single release announced for late April (she recorded one album prior back in Norway called "It's Magic" with some great covers of jazz standards plus a few originals... great album if you love jazz, or just her voice...)
Hard to decide on your next one, do you want to see where she is now --> watch some performances from her concerts in Norway last summer, or a music video (Suspicious Minds, I Have Nothing, Easy On Me...) or did you want to see how her rise to stardom began --> watch her performances on Norway Got Talent, incredible performances by a then 7/8 y.o...
Subbed for your journey, peace and love from Bavaria!
Much love Bavaria! Thanks for the view, comment and SUB! We really appreciate your time and support!
As far as I am concerned, you have just discovered the very best vocalist .......... in the history of the planet!! And I say that quit seriously.
Next, her Bohemian Rhapsody from AGT Champions 2020, when she was 13. Phenomenal ❣️
When she was 6 yo she promised to perform barefoot until all the children in the world have shoes. She keeps true to that till today. Look for the full story of this - it's inspiring!
Here is a link to BR on AGT-C: ua-cam.com/video/qF0JV28vgLw/v-deo.html
Amy and Travis, "Welcome to the Wonderful World of Angelina Jordan!" What a great reaction to our barefoot princess! She is someone very special and you will be receiving all kinds of data (playlists and bio's) about her from her fans (her 'angels'). Not only will you enjoy her music as you begin your journey through the years with her, you will also find out what a beautiful human being she is. 'I Put A Spell On You' is a great introductory piece to listen to because of the uniqueness of the video with so many components sending you into a dizzy spell, but guys, "You ain't seen nothin' yet!" I know it will take a lot of your time but I strongly suggest for you to read the comments (some are very lengthy!) to get a great idea of what she means to us and how she has affected our lives. (?) See what I mean? Strap yourself in and it's so nice for you to join all of us around the world who support her, enjoy her when she sings FOR US, and love her very, very much. Believe me, I don't use the word love very loosely and you will understand very soon what I mean.
Oh, I can't leave without telling you, one of Angelina's favorite songs is 'Crazy' and, somewhere Patsy's spirit, wherever it is, smiles whenever it hears Angelina sing 'Crazy'. There are many video's of her singing the song, with bands or with just a guitar player and, take your pick, they are all great.
Thanks for the info! Really appreciate it!
Her fully name is Angelina Jordan Astar. From Norway 🇳🇴 The girl with the 1000 voices. Ohh yeah she's the boss, the band call her boss. She has a finger in everything. Best regards from Norway 🇳🇴
Much love Norway! Thanks for the view and comment.
I first saw this video a few years ago and I love watching 1st-time reactions to her. I have been in awe of her talent ever since my first viewing of her. Everything she sings is so well done that no matter what you view, you will be impressed. Since you are from the south, be sure to check out her versions of Crazy originally by Patsy Cline and Suspicious Minds which was a huge hit by Elvis. Enjoy your journey on Angelina's Magical Carpet Ride ! 🤗

Vielen Dank für Ihre Ansicht, Ihren Kommentar und Ihr SUB! Wir wissen Ihre Unterstützung sehr zu schätzen!
She arranges all her music and the band on all you songs. The bands all call her the Boss and really admire her. She is a really amazing young girl. She just gets better every time. She is now 17 and first LP will very soon be out.
Blessings from a 76 year old gran from South Africa
Blessings back, thanks for the view and comment. We really appreciate it!
Angelina Jordan is 17 years old in 2023. The bare feet has an incredible story. Next one: Age 13, Bohemian Rhapsody at AGT Champions (she participates as a 2014 winner of Norway's Got Talent). It is her own arrangement. You picked up on so much watching this video. Great reaction, Folks. Grandma Ellen, out.
Angelina is a musical genius that was born with her abilities. I put her in the same company as Mozart or Bach. I'm 63 years old and have loved all kinds of music my whole life. I've never heard anything like her. If you listen, you'll not just hear the music you'll feel the music. Even when she covers other artists songs, it's like she takes it to the next level. She's just amazing
I'm 82 AND agree with you.....
Last year at 56, Angelina quickly made me rethink and reassess my ideas on religion and mythology; considering reincarnation seriously for the first time, or ready to assert she is the goddess of vocal song once convinced that gods and goddesses truly walk the Earth, and new thoughts on Revelations.
70 year old and have heard it all...until now. Re-discovered real music once again in my life.....Thankyou Angelina Jordan Astar and your wonderful family.❤❤
Amen Brother
I'm 60 and agree 100%. I couldn't have said it better or more precisely. The label "genius" is greatly overused imho, but Angelina is a true genius, and the first singer I would assign that label to. She is our Mozart.
She won Norway's got talent at 7 years old. She dazzled everyone at aged 13 with a rendition of Bohemian Rhapsody and she recently covered Elvis.
paul Won NGT at age 8.
Seeing her sing barefoot is the strongest statement in favor of those most in need and without saying a word...¡¡¡¡¡
This young lady is almost a adult now and her work through the years has been beautiful I am happy to see you found her definitely one of the good ones she is genuinely a great person and Humble definitely watch more you will be captivated like this song she puts a spell on you
She’s also Norway’s youngest published author. She wrote a book about her an experience she had in the Middle East when she was six years old. In it she explains why she chooses to perform barefoot as a reminder to herself of the less fortunate children in the world without shoes, family, and food. She still performs barefoot to this day on the largest stages in the world.
Sorry guys, this is the best I Put A Spell On You cover I've ever heard.
Won Norway's Got Talent at 7 yo, finished 3rd in America's Got Talent Champions at 13, is a best selling author (youngest in Norway's history its said), humanitarian (why she performs barefoot), arranger (she arranges most of her music, even in this video you see her writing notes to the producer), AND now at 17 her voice is bigger, stronger, and fabulous...enjoy the trip.
❤🇨🇱 this a super star on the making that's about to go super nova you can't go wrong with anything she sings welcome to this journey
- The Barefoot Princess -
(From her book, television and radio interviews, and podcasts made between 2014-2015. Includes excerpts from her diary made that day in 2012.)
Why does Angelina sing barefooted? Angelina Jordan is known as "The Barefoot Princess" or "The Barefoot Princess of Jazz," amongst many other names. She always performs barefooted, whether in front of a live audience or during a studio performance. The story is that while living in the Middle East, at 6 years old, Angelina came across an orphaned girl, of her own age, sitting in the street, weighing people on a bathroom scale to earn money. Angelina said to herself, "I would like to share her life for one second to know what it is like to sit alone, wet, and damp, and barefoot in a corner of the street." Angelina could see the girl's bare feet were scarred and that it was cold outside, so she offered her own shoes to the girl. Little Angelina says that she really loved her shoes, as they were very nice and she knew she would miss them. But she saw the other little girl’s need for them, which outweighed her own desire to keep them. So she insisted the little girl take them.
Angelina called her Princess, even though the girl said she didn't live in a castle, but the ruins of a building next to where she sat. After sharing their hopes and dreams, the little girl said of Angelina's wish to sing for the world, "You will become the one you dream of and when your dreams come true, you have to remember the poor children without shoes; and I will pray for you Angelina.” Later that day, 6 y/o Angelina wrote in her diary, "The world is very strange. Right then and there, I felt as if a door in my heart opened up, and it was filled with lots of lights. It was as if there was, from Earth to Heaven, a staircase. I climbed the stairs. To be able to do something for another human - it was such a big thing…hard to describe really.”
From that point on, Angelina takes off her shoes, in honor of ‘Princess’ and all the other less fortunate children of the world, who are orphaned, hungry, or in want of even basic clothing. In 2015, at the age of 9, Angelina wrote a book about the encounter, as everyone continued to ask why she sang barefoot. Her grandmother, Mery Zamani, created the artwork for the book. So at 9, Angelina Jordan became the youngest published author in Norway. Angelina has performed alongside many other artists, raising attention and helping to raise over 21 million euros and millions of dollars for children in need.
Welcome to the AJ show....this young woman is phenomenal. She is 17 now and her voice is unbelievable. ❤
Wow! You guys have alot more patience than I do!! Once Angelina hit me with one of her songs , I couldn't let a day go without jumping down the rabbit hole. That was like seven years ago, and I don't believe that I have missed a single day listening to her since.
Welcome in one of the most wonderful musical 'rabbit holes' there is. It did started for Angelina in 2013-2014, when she was 7 years of age: that season she won Norway Got Talent at the age of 8 (she is Norwegian, so English is not her first language). When you add to your search on UA-cam the word 'subtitles' you will often (not always) find videos with English subtitles. A nice way to get more information about Angelina is watching the British documentary (yes, completely subtitled) about her on UA-cam 'Angelina Jordan, Born to sing 2006 - 2014', which is showing the early years.
She's little when at9 but to many of us shes a giant among the legends.
Hi you 2 👋. That was an amazing reaction to 9 Angelina. I give new Angie reactors a welcome pack, please read. She chooses all her own songs & does all her own arrangements ever since she was very young, even when she did Screaming Jay Hawkins “I put a spell on you” the B&W at barely 9, even at 7 & 8 on NGT (Norway’s Got Talent) all 4 songs. On AGT-C Audition, Angie made her outfit from silkscreen patterns of her grandma's art work when she was 13 back in Norway. She makes several of her other outfits for shows & concerts too. She also paints great, plays 5 instruments & speaks & sings 4+ languages, English being her 3rd. Angie turned 17 on 1-10-23. Angie is a very kind, giving, loving, respectful, humble & a big hearted Christian girl. She always sings barefoot when performing & she wrote a book about it at 9 called “Between Two Hearts” & she was/is the youngest to be published in Norway. (Angie has always been the driving force behind her dreams)
(Why does Angie performs barefoot. Please watch. Angelina gives a short little interview explaining why she performs barefoot. ua-cam.com/video/-cCLDY0CSZ8/v-deo.html) Angie has arranged over 160 covers & written 5 songs & has had 2 written for her also & she’s mastered over 10 genre’s already. One of her nicknames is “The barefoot princess of a 1000 voices” & the "Queen of jazz". Angie never sings a song the same way twice, so you could say they’ll all be 1st time reactions. Angie sings like an instrumentalist, combinded with narrative music, another reason she’s so especially rare & great. Her musicality & music intelligence have always been of the charts, (Prodigy)
Thank you for the info. Really appreciate your view and comment!
Choose wisely!!! This is the musical journey of a lifetime. AJ has close to 200 covers, shorts and 5 originals. Suggest you go back to her public debut, Norways Got Talent when she was 7/8 Four stellar mind blowing performances to win it all. Other virgin AJ reactors have worked their way up from 6/7 and enjoyed watching the growth. No other artist has so much early content that I'm aware. Onward.
First off, let me say how much I enjoyed your 'reactions'. You didn't pause every 30 seconds to review what you saw, the 'reactions' on your faces told us how much you were enjoying this performance. It has been a while since I have enjoyed a reaction video as much as I enjoyed this one, so I am subscribing in hopes of seeing the two of you do many more Angelina reactions. Angelina entered Norway's Got Talent at 7 years old and won the whole thing just after turning 8. She always performs barefoot in public after befriending a homeless, shoeless girl about her age, when she was 6. She wrote a book about this encounter when she was 9, and became Norway's youngest published author. She has helped raise millions of dollars for children in need. Not only is she an amazing talent musically, (she plays 4 instruments) she speaks at least 3 languages other than her native Norwegian. This young lady (now 17) sings with more feeling and emotion than anyone I have heard in my 68 years. I listen to her several times every day. Here is a list of videos (you just did one of them) that I feel are "MUST SEE", use them as you see fit. From her first time in a studio to her latest cover of Adele at 16, these are just a few of her around 200 videos. I look forward to following your journey, and her 'Angels' (her name for her fans) will offer up all types of info and requests.

Hello you TWO, Angelina Jordan (AJ) was discovered by her mom, singing into a microphone at age 1,5. Angelina found Jazz and Soul at age 2 and decided to practice singing for 36 hours a week at age 3. When age 4 she entered the academy of music and performing arts for technical advise, late she did the same in LA, where she resides since 2019.
She auditioned for Norway Gots Talent at age 7 and half a year later won the competition as the youngest ever. She was ennobled as the Treasure of Norway by King and Country in late summer 2014 at age 8. Vocal experts (I´m talking of opera singers and professional Vocal educators) see in her the next GOAT of Jazz and Soul.
Today, in 2023 she celebrated her 17th birthday on January 10th. She still is a humble person, well behaved with immens patience for others.
When 8 years old she participated in Berlin in a TV show "Ein Herz fuer Kinder" (a heart for the children) and gathered withother stars 21 MILLION Deutsch Mark. In the time from 2014 to 2020 she helped gathering and donating money for child charity and eco causes (singing at charities) about 30 MILLION USD. She also helps the community of homeless people in LA with food and maybe sometimes, like her beloved japanese grandfather, a job.
My dear co-commenters and co-angels (SHE calls us that) will help you with their comments.
You be safe and happy.

This is the link to Angelina starting at age 18 months, singing two phrases to Whitney Houston’s ‘I’ll Always Love You’ when most children are uttering their first words (someone heard a quote from her mother that much more was sung as she ran to get her phone to record): m.UA-cam.com/watch?v=VJjG68Dfr-8&t=115 1:53 to 2:10 (this is a very brief 15 second home video in the middle of a longer TV interview)
@@dojoswitzer Thank you my friend. Be safe and blessed.
Thank you Elmar, glad to have you with us!
@@frontrowchaos4597 I try to share what I know/learned from others. It is the only way to bring us humans forward, when we sharr knowledge and other things. Be safe.
Love your reaction, but you haven’t seen anything yet. This child is an AMAZING talent and even more BEAUTIFUL soul. Enjoy the journey…
Wow, thank you
So many comments ahead of mine, but welcome to the best singer you have ever heard. You have a world of vocal artistry ahead of you with Angelina. Todays song is extraordinary, but just a glimpse into what Angelina can do. She will blow you away again and again and again. She is once in a lifetime.
You have no idea how deep the rabbit hole is you just fell into. Welcome to the club.
Thank you!
Angelina's Angels welcome you to the entrance of an very deep rabbit hole of great music
Angelina stood up from the cradle as a musical genius. She's the genius I've been waiting for 50 years.
Me too. She is oir Mozart.
She made the arrangements for this song by the way at age 8-9
A barefoot princess with a hypnotic voice.
She was only 9 years old when she performed this song. It is her tribute to Screamin' Jay Hawkins, an American singer/songwriter. He wrote and performed it in 1956 and Angelina based her performance on the original, although she did make some subtle alterations to both lyrics and melody. As you continue your journey of discovering Angelina, you will come to realise that she does her own arrangements of most of the cover songs she sings. The differences may not be immediately discernible on first listening to them, but they are there. There may be a subtle change in tempo or tone, or more inflexion on some words, or a phrase may differ in pitch from the original. The amount of control that Angelina has over her voice cannot be measured. She never hurries a song. She sings in such a way that the emotions in the lyrics are felt by the listener. In this video did you notice:Angelina finishing some notes and handing them to the pianist, who smiled as he read them? They were her wishes (instructions) to the band how she wished therm to play the music. In the band, she was called a boss
Ok, let’s GO! I’ve been watching Angelina for almost 4 years and my addiction has me checking out her reaction videos twice a day, every day. I’ll let my fellow “Angels” fill you in on all of her background. Love to watch you see her progress each year from 1&1/2 to now at 17. Skip around if you choose, but don’t miss all of her NGT shows age 7~8, her live concerts 8~ 11, Guitar after dinner at home at 12, AGT age 13, Republic Records introductions at 14, and now at 17 preforming for 300 million live on TV at the FIFA soccer awards show last month in Paris. At 6’ tall she towers over every other singer man, woman or whatever as a singer, song writer, arranger - genius.
