She writes her own arrangements to. She did that in I put a spell on you. She made some changes that's what she was doing when she wrote on the paper and she gave it the guy he seen it and smiled.
I wouldn't presume anything was beyond Angelina at 12. Shield has always been my favorite song of hers. You and I hear this song differently. You say cabaret .. to me it is a prayer. I have always heard it that way.
So I'm literally sitting here with a tumbler of Tullamore and a cigar, transported back to the 1930's by this child's voice! It doesn't get better than this.
She writes the music and the lyrics, and she arranges all her songs. This one is about how her family surrounds her and protects her through this journey with her music. Her first original song, What Is Life?, was written at age 11. My favorite version is the lyric video that was on her first album by the same name.
Wrote the words and lyrics and arrangements and her grandmother directed it and she wrote this about her family protected her and her protector for her far with all from her all the arrangements everything
Angelina is amazing young lady I love ever song she does at this point iam never surprised when she sings because I understand how great she is thank you
If I understand it Angelina wrote this about her mother and her grandmother how they protect her like the line forgive me for all that I am she knows what a burden her ability puts on her family now they've had to move to Los Angeles I'll make sure they were not used to living and the United States she realizes the sacrifices that our family has had to make because of her ability and she wrote the song to show how grateful she is
How on earth could I have missed this one?? I'm first watching this 6 months later but what a treat Your Reactions always are no matter now or later 😀👍 I agree with every thing You commented and always look forward to Your next one 🤞😊 ~ OneLove ~ JBB
You're a nice man, and wolf too, I suppose. I like your comments on the best singer in the world. Listen Angelina with "the house of the rising sun" . It's about 2 minuts long but you will listening hundred times ! It's so goooooood ! Bye bye from Normandy, France.
Thanks Greywolf for your reaction on Angelina songs , you said it all she's an angel fall from the sky ,for me she's the best singer in the galaxy by far. Peace and Love from 🇨🇦
Agreed, totally impressed with everything she has covered!! But now she is doing work that WILL BE COVERED no doubt!! Amazing!! She was asked in an interview if she feels like a 12 year old. She said, "When I look at my passport I feel like a 12 year old." lol. Then she sang the song you just showed.
Angelina's vocals are God tier! Hello hope your well, it's been a while since you have done a reaction to AJ and I am only here to suggest that you listen to her new single "love don't let me go". She has grown so much for her 17 years that it seems an impossibility but here she is getting better and better. You know way back when she did her first performance on Norway's got talent the brunette lady judge said to Angelina "you are music" it wasn't until a couple years later after hearing he make that comment that I fully comprehended what she had meant by that statement. Hats off to that judge who herself has a gifted ear! Just incredible!
Angelina has been known to correct an orchestra accompanying her, so she does understand the different instruments and arrangements. I can't say for sure, but she may be capable of doing the musical arrangement as well. She does re-arrange vocals like a champ.
The fact that knocks me out, is the difference between her age and the passion in her singing!!!!!! I started to believe that she lived another life and gathered experiences that brings out in this life. I dont know she is a big mystery to me. Because if I say that God blessed her with all this talent , I am going to be accused again that I offend people and that she is just a good singer!!!!! Thanks for a wonderful reaction.
I can’t wait until she reaches her peak and hits her stride because when that happens we’re in for a long run of remarkable music! Amazing just amazing
She is absolutely everything! She is the best singer and artist the world ever seen from to day. But, she and her family is holding back. Very reasonable doing that.... And as usual, GREAT reaction :-D
One of the things I was a little confused about in the beginning was when she says "forgive me for all that I am" not for what she has done but for what she is. But then I heard if this is correct that she saw what becoming a singer (that is what she is) has put problems on her parents especially her mom. It amazes me that a 12-year-old notices the sacrifices that were made for her becoming a singer. It makes me admire her even more.
@@tm13tube ok I did not say she was going to, I never talked about pop songs and I would never think she would write pop songs. Not sure what is in response to.
@@lynettepascua4730 Hi! I think millieo was just saying, albeit briefly, that Angelina wouldn't ven think of writing pup songs and no r eading into your comment that you think she would.
Lynette Pascua. Yes now that you mentioned it, it kind of hits home quite a sad sinking feeling. I here what you’re saying and they all are in such a catch 22 situation. I have often tried to imagine the scenarios into how they cope with it. Angelina is such a preciously rare phenomenon and she did not exactly ask for it to blow up that big and there is absolutely no reason she should ask for forgiveness for that. That is just absurd if that is in-fact what she is doing in the song. Her poor mother is evidently fighting her fingers to the bone (for good reason of course) to keep Heaven and hell from crushing her in the middle and at this tender age it wil do just that. I just pray she keep those precious feet where they belong.
@@lynettepascua4730 I'm sorry. I was careless in how I said it. I think the pop singers that sign with record labels lose theirselves. They are pushed to do what somebody else chooses for them and perform when and where they are told. They lose their autonomy. I think that is when they start sliding into trouble. Angelina isn't going to lose her autonomy. I recently read there is a song she recorded and after she realized the meaning she regretted doing it. The musicians refuse to let her change the words and she refuses to sign off so it can be published. Unfortunately some one leaked it on on UA-cam. These are the thoughts behind what I said. You are right, it is extraordinary someone that young has that depth of thought.
So rare, everything about her. She makes every song her very own. If she wrote "Shield" it's even richer than her covers. This shows dynamic range beyond any contemorary singer. And yet I feel we have only touched the small portion of her vocal treatments. She's a real star!
I heard that Queen was impressed and supportive of Angelina's version of The Show Must Go On. Would love to see her on stage doing it with Freddie's band backing her up and Freddie smiling down from heaven.
I just melted into a big puddle. As he says. Are you kidding me!" 12 years old , she has to be from another dimension where she is actually 45 singing this.
Everybody in the music industry already knows Angelina. And everything is up to her of she will go full throttle with regards to her singing career. She's not yet a full time artists as compared to other UA-cam stars. She still has her education as her priority. But I don't think it will be a long wait now. The pandemic we are facing now just slowed everything. And that includes Angelina's pace. And yes she wrote the song Shield with the help of 3 others. It was known for the longest time that she wrote this when she's 12. But a short video clip just came with poor audio quality. She's singing shield at 10 years old and the song perhaps is in its early form.
This would be a great Bond song! Angelina absolutely is a true genius. She is a Chamaeleon and becomes all things to everyone with her Voice. She is a super human possessing abilities far beyond what we have heard from what we thought were the upper echelons of our most talented artists,..but, she truly does surpass the limits and abilities of what we thought we could obtain or reach. I believe this is a realistic view of this young woman. Someone with her abilities comes along only once in maybe a century or two. She is a beautiful and rare gem and should be put on a pedestal to sparkle and dazzle with her beautiful luminous presence and voice for all to see and enjoy for generations to come.
What a great informed commentary! Much appreciated and I'll join you in that cabaret-bar, even if I don't smoke or drink anymore, I'll offer and drink with you a glass of a Knockandoo Master Reserve😋😘, no rocks then, with a sigar too...😉👌😎 Btw, since she is protected by her family, there is no big producer with a promotional machinery (but with which counterparty?🤔), thus the only promotion she gets today is our shares and "outside world" has to "come cross her by chance", if they deserve her... no doubt that the day will come where everyone will know her. Soon. In the meantime she prepares herself... 😁
Hi, unbelievable at 13 she wrote this song she doesn't have a producer she does everything all her videos are done by her family when she finishes school I think she will go professional I mean videos aregement of stage CD's cannot wait! Thank you for your reaction!❗💜
Her grandmother Mery Zamani started writing poems and painting at the early age of 9. She is a full-time artist who has published several books and paintings. She is a great role model for Angelina. So for me, it's no surprise that she's already writing good lyrics. The lyrics and melody for "Shield" are written in a collaboration between Angelina, Ronny Janssen, Aksel Carlson and Frida Amundsen!
Thank you. Words cannot convey the impact of her music on the soul. For me I listen every day because I have dealt with health and healing all my life and heard her say she wants to love through her music. I feel it and appreciate all of you who get it. Thank you all.
Thanks again for continuing to react to Angelina with these beautiful reactions, GreyWolf. This for me is an exceptional song, for the music, for the lyrics, for how well balanced it's and to finish because it is made by a 12 year old girl. If you think about it, the subject of the texts is certainly not what every twelve year old thinks, but it is natural for her instead to understand that she is still very young, even if unique, and therefore she needs a shield, between her and the world, that can easily ruin or destroy her, just as it has happened to many talented and young artists, even among those she admire, such as Avicii, Amy, Whitney. This is why I believe that, after all, although there is no official confirmation, the lyric are referring to her mother and perhaps also to her grandmother, they are the ones who defend she, in particular (I think) from the dangers of the entertainment industry. Gray Wolf you're lucky, you can realize your vision of the dark bar with Angelina (she was younger though) watch this excerpt from the series "Lilyhammer" by Netflix with Steven Van Zandt, where Angelina sings' I'm a fool " ua-cam.com/video/Vlrbci8Xqtw/v-deo.html 😂 For her other original songs you can find "Oslo" where she tells about her city in this video made by Yozhik v Tumane: ua-cam.com/video/MfWVcDQix4Y/v-deo.html or this other recorded live in 2018: ua-cam.com/video/R2HkKh_Cp8I/v-deo.html and "What Is Life?" of which they have already given you the link
Thank you, Lars Morten. I see many say that the shield is her mum, she has never confirmed that anywhere I can see. In an interview she was a little cryptic, but I understand the closest people around her was her shield, her life guardians. Her whole family. Its also touching when she sing "forgive me for what I am". I see that as her wish and road to become a superstar. And for that, I am sure her family forgive her.
@@ClaudioMarcucci7756 Absolutely. And thats why we love her so much. She is very down to earth, so careful, afraid to say anything wrong. The interview at AGT is a good example. She was very humble to be there, and with tear in her eye she was full of respect for Simon. Very touching. In her early days, in some interview she was looking at her mum, to see if her answer was okey. Right there we knew she would be a very caring and loving person 💙 Btw, Claudio, if you have time, try listen to this, another Norwegian singer I am a fan of: ua-cam.com/video/Ft-pqc2_C1k/v-deo.html Together with Aurora, they are my 3 favorites. And they all come from Norway.. I dont understand what they feed them with.. 😂
@@sarlina1 for you absolutely 😊 I think it's amazing to find out how many good singers there are in Norway, with such a small population, they must love music very much

@@sarlina1 I understand her mother said it was about her.
Nice raw reaction. Angie wrote this when she was 11 & was 12 here when she performed it. I love how you just run out of verbs. We all do, The only word that everyone uses to describes her is "WOW!!!" Here's 2 other songs she did all of it. Arrangement & lyrics all of it. She also wrote around 11-12 yrs old. “What is life” ua-cam.com/video/Bv0r77KN7RA/v-deo.html with Dylan Meek on keyboards & she also wrote “Oslo:”ua-cam.com/video/6PsVu4iNmX0/v-deo.html
Thank you for this reaction to Angelina Jordan . She wrote the lyrics and helped with the music. Like rusty said if you want to listen to a song that is whole Angelina Jordan’s work you have to react to «What is life» this is her first song she wrote the lyrics and the music. This song reminds be of a bond theme song and she will do an amazing job if she Get the chance to sing a bond theme song in the future.
12 years old..., and another music master piece... This one deserves to be sound track of 007 movie... :) We have seen nothing yet..., nothing. She will be a case, a serious case in the music industry.
Angelina wrote the lyrics on this one, and helped with the music (you can see the credits for the others involved at 2.30 of this video). If you want to see one that is all Angelina's composition, you should check out "What is Life": ua-cam.com/video/Bv0r77KN7RA/v-deo.html It was her first original, and my personal favorite of the three. Much like "shield" transported you to a cabaret bar... "What is Life" will transport you to a smoky jazz club in the 40's. Also being a pianist, you will probably appreciate the piano work of Dylan Meek (a young grammy nominated artist). ...also I believe the acoustic "What is Life" (in the link above) is free from copyright. I have been hoping you will do it at some point.
“What is Life” is a fabulous composition. She is a musical genius and oh what a superb vocalist! I hope I live long enough to go to one of her live concerts one day-that would be so mind-blowing!
Hi, Greywolf. Buy a big cigar, a bottle of bourbon and listen to Angelina singing "What is Life". Is an original song and it will blow you away. It´s on UA-cam
Her first 2 original songs, What is Life & Oslo, were written when she was 11 & she wrote both the lyrics & the melody. Both are on her 2018 album "It's Magic." She wrote the lyrics for Shield when she was 12, but she had 3 other songwriters help her with the melody that is very "James Bondish." Shield was released as a single. She continues to tweak this song & her most recent performance of it at an outdoor concert in Norway in July 2019 is even better that this, IMHO. My favorite original is her very first song, What is Life, in the acoustic version. It's amazing!!!
the strike could also be because its from both Norwgian and Swedish national broadcasters, this particular talk show is a collaboration between the 2 tv stations in 2 countrys
While Angelina apparently participated in composing the melody, I have no doubt she took a strong role in the arrangement as she does in most of her music. She knows what she wants and what works for her.
It's right that Angelina was 12 when she first published this song, and also in this performance, but I just recently saw a video clip from 2016 of Angelina sining this song ... *when she was 10!* If you hadn't been so baffled by the song, you would have noticed that there are 3 other names listed as co-writers for the song. I'm supposing she written the lyrics and the melody, and probably had a lot of ideas regarding the main structure of the arrangement and how she wanted it to sound in order to convey the proper feelings, and then had some help with actually materializing it in regards to orchestration, sound effects and things like that p.s. I recommend you watch the interview that is linked at the end of the video, it's very nice :)
@Fedor Ivanov The video is very short and I have no authority to publish this private recording, but I can give you a link to a facebook post with photos from the same occasion where the video was recorded facebook.com/ronny.janssen.180/posts/10157841900405713
It is still availible in her home country :) Thank you for another great reaction. As for something new to react to, looks like you have not done this one, and very few has of the reactors. The one i recomend is a live performance with Alan Walker when she was 10 years old. Here you actualy get 2 songs of her singing with Alan Walker on this live performance. (Video is called: Angelina Jordan sings at Alan Walker is Heading Home LIVE STREAM).
As always, great reaction to Angelina, and yes her originals are just wonderfull. I belive she had some co-writers in this one as it comes to the music. I feel confident that the lyrics are all her own. These matches up so well to the lyrics of her two earlier songs, "What is life" and "Oslo", as it comes to lyrical theme. As she did the music by herself for those earliest two, they comes out a bit more jazzy than "Shield". I must say I love all three of them, they each have theire own character, and the music goes so incredible well allong with the mood of her lyrics. Thanks for all of your great videos on Angelina. I`m looking forward for all of those comming. I can`t wait to join you in so many of her wonderfull moments, but I must mention her performance of "A Song For A", (composed for her to sing, by Nico Cartosio). Sadly it is not a live performance, only the recorded version that was made for Cartosio`s album. Still, a totaly amazing performance and yet another genre for Angelina`s long list of genres. ua-cam.com/video/Bo3mhxPM-uA/v-deo.html Highly recomanded!! :-)
"Oslo" and "What is life?" are the two other songs written by her(at the age 11). You should really check them out. "Oslo" is my absolute favorite. I`m 57 yo and I have never been so impressed by any singer/songwriter before I heard Angelina.
I know you reacted to the song "Creep", sang by Haley Reinhart with PMJ. Angelina definitely has one of those voices, like Haley, that one would immediately recognize. This is even true when Angelina is covering any singer of any style. Keep em coming!
Oh...Jarrell....I found something you are going to jump for joy when you react to these two parts of Angelina Jordan's singing the oldies. Look on your search engine for "Angelina Jordan -A decade of dedication part 1 & 2". You will be transported to another dimension. Enjoy and I hope you react to both of them. I am looking for part 3...no luck yet but I will let you know if I do.💓
Shield is the correct spelling. 😉 Angelina is a musical genius, she composes her own songs, both lyrics and music. She might have som input with the music, but I believe it’s mostly all her own. I believe she is 12 her, but I might be slightly wrong. 😊 (Rusty; you are welcome to correct me if I am wrong. 😂)
hello greywolf all the songs are hers or she is all the songs (er) or maybe the reverse. as soon as she starts to sing the world around stops, she controls the time, its duration its speed etc. another song in the low tone of elvis presley "Are you lonesome tonight" is a real musical delight of interpretation to listen if you like this serious tone hi to you and all your subscribers and to others also in particular. André
Hey Wolf 🐺 welcome back As far as I know Anglina does all of her arrangements and the band is her band as far as writing the song I'm not sure if she did it alone or with other people I've heard both ways. Great reaction.Stay Safe 😍
Thank you so much for your reaction, my friend! We have seen each other in the past with your Jinjer reactions, my favorite band, next to Spiritbox. OK, Angelina Jordan, what can I say, I've known her for 4 years and when I heard her own song , I cried, so wonderful .................. ... ....... Maybe we'll see you at your next Jinjer reaction > Jinjer uploaded a new video: JINJER - Noah (Official Video) | Napalm Records many greetings from germany and stay safe
Another super reaction from the GreyWolf. She has a new album of all originals that was already to have been released, but the pandemic has caused that to be delayed. She has no new covers on YT, and I don't know what the future holds for her. I don't know if she's still in the U. S., or if she has returned to Norway. Perhaps someone can give that info. For your next reaction I suggest the "leaked" video, "I'm Still Holding Out for You". Here's the link: ua-cam.com/video/Dv8mjCh5iiE/v-deo.html This may be the best thing she has ever done. This demo was leaked when she was 12, almost 13, but I think she was younger when she recorded it. Because the lyrics at the end implied suicide, she was not happy that it was leaked. And she has declared that she will never sing this version of the song again. And I respect her for that. However, if this was released as a single from an album that was being professionally promoted, I believe it would zoom to the top of the charts. Alas, we will never know. Best wishes.
Finally you came to my favorite Song by AJ. I love this Song and this performace. Next you should try out is an other original What is Life. Ut is also good - - off couse! 😁
Thank you for reacting to Angelina again, and thank you for a great reaction video. Her song Shield, has already been covered in "The Voice" - Norway song competition. You can find the cover of Angelina's song "Shield" here: ua-cam.com/video/bdUaGvdPLuE/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/oLr9PBwg8X4/v-deo.html That is impressive right?
great reaction. u have always given great reaction to Angelina's cover performances. Shield, I love it very much too. Strong lyrics, great beat. Very James Bond theme music caliber. Her other own song is What Is Life? ua-cam.com/video/Bv0r77KN7RA/v-deo.html I believe she wrote the lyric and the composition. A sweet and thoughtful song. They don't make music like this anymore. She is something else. Another song, Song For A, was written specific for her to sing. An epic love long. A musical poetry. you will definitely love it. I don't think it's on any of her channels. You can find it here at the original composer's channel. ua-cam.com/video/4_vBAP2_2A0/v-deo.html or ua-cam.com/video/Bo3mhxPM-uA/v-deo.html. It's a wonderful fan-made video. very well-done. And then there is this song. And it's a controversial one. She did not write it. It's not her song. but she sang it first, before anyone else, even before the original artist. and she set the standard so high that I don't think there will ever be anyone who can do better. IMO, it's literally hers now. but it's not supposed to exist. Strange, isn't it? And it's her best rendition. ever. ua-cam.com/video/Dv8mjCh5iiE/v-deo.html. it's a controversial one. Your decision, GreyWolf.
I was told she wrote this for her family. Amazing.
She writes her own arrangements to. She did that in I put a spell on you. She made some changes that's what she was doing when she wrote on the paper and she gave it the guy he seen it and smiled.
I wouldn't presume anything was beyond Angelina at 12. Shield has always been my favorite song of hers. You and I hear this song differently. You say cabaret .. to me it is a prayer. I have always heard it that way.
So I'm literally sitting here with a tumbler of Tullamore and a cigar, transported back to the 1930's by this child's voice! It doesn't get better than this.

I just melted into a big puddle. As he says. Are you kidding me!" 12 years old , she has to be from another dimension where she is actually 45 singing this.
There is just no understanding of this unbelievable talented young lady...no explanation.
Everybody in the music industry already knows Angelina. And everything is up to her of she will go full throttle with regards to her singing career. She's not yet a full time artists as compared to other UA-cam stars. She still has her education as her priority. But I don't think it will be a long wait now. The pandemic we are facing now just slowed everything. And that includes Angelina's pace. And yes she wrote the song Shield with the help of 3 others. It was known for the longest time that she wrote this when she's 12. But a short video clip just came with poor audio quality. She's singing shield at 10 years old and the song perhaps is in its early form.
You already know this GreyWolf...this young girl is Brilliant.
This one is jazzier than the studio version. I love them both, and I love your reactions to her.
This would be a great Bond song! Angelina absolutely is a true genius. She is a Chamaeleon and becomes all things to everyone with her Voice. She is a super human possessing abilities far beyond what we have heard from what we thought were the upper echelons of our most talented artists,..but, she truly does surpass the limits and abilities of what we thought we could obtain or reach.
I believe this is a realistic view of this young woman. Someone with her abilities comes along only once in maybe a century or two.
She is a beautiful and rare gem and
should be put on a pedestal to sparkle and dazzle with her beautiful luminous presence and voice for all to see and enjoy for generations to come.
Billions have followed her on youtube and FB
Angelina Jordan for the next Bond movie!!!!!
Thanks for your reaction and keep up the good work
Ouço todas as suas interpretações e demais.
What a great informed commentary! Much appreciated and I'll join you in that cabaret-bar, even if I don't smoke or drink anymore, I'll offer and drink with you a glass of a Knockandoo Master Reserve😋😘, no rocks then, with a sigar too...😉👌😎
Btw, since she is protected by her family, there is no big producer with a promotional machinery (but with which counterparty?🤔), thus the only promotion she gets today is our shares and "outside world" has to "come cross her by chance", if they deserve her... no doubt that the day will come where everyone will know her. Soon. In the meantime she prepares herself... 😁
I am happy to witness something so good, thank you for your response.
Hi, unbelievable at 13 she wrote this song she doesn't have a producer she does everything all her videos are done by her family when she finishes school I think she will go professional I mean videos aregement of stage CD's cannot wait! Thank you for your reaction!❗💜
Was written at 12
Written when she was 12 and remember this is not her first language either..
Love your reactions Greywolf. Look forward to more reactions of my new favorite singer Angelina Jordan!
Her grandmother Mery Zamani started writing poems and painting at the early age of 9. She is a full-time artist who has published several books and paintings. She is a great role model for Angelina. So for me, it's no surprise that she's already writing good lyrics. The lyrics and melody for "Shield" are written in a collaboration between Angelina, Ronny Janssen, Aksel Carlson and Frida Amundsen!
Thanks for the info. How are you connected?
Thank you. Words cannot convey the impact of her music on the soul. For me I listen every day because I have dealt with health and healing all my life and heard her say she wants to love through her music. I feel it and appreciate all of you who get it. Thank you all.
Thanks again for continuing to react to Angelina with these beautiful reactions, GreyWolf. This for me is an exceptional song, for the music, for the lyrics, for how well balanced it's and to finish because it is made by a 12 year old girl. If you think about it, the subject of the texts is certainly not what every twelve year old thinks, but it is natural for her instead to understand that she is still very young, even if unique, and therefore she needs a shield, between her and the world, that can easily ruin or destroy her, just as it has happened to many talented and young artists, even among those she admire, such as Avicii, Amy, Whitney. This is why I believe that, after all, although there is no official confirmation, the lyric are referring to her mother and perhaps also to her grandmother, they are the ones who defend she, in particular (I think) from the dangers of the entertainment industry.
Gray Wolf you're lucky, you can realize your vision of the dark bar with Angelina (she was younger though) watch this excerpt from the series "Lilyhammer" by Netflix with Steven Van Zandt, where Angelina sings' I'm a fool "
ua-cam.com/video/Vlrbci8Xqtw/v-deo.html 😂
For her other original songs you can find "Oslo" where she tells about her city in this video made by Yozhik v Tumane:
ua-cam.com/video/MfWVcDQix4Y/v-deo.html
or this other recorded live in 2018:
ua-cam.com/video/R2HkKh_Cp8I/v-deo.html
and "What Is Life?" of which they have already given you the link
Written in appreciation for her "life guardians", her mom and the rest of the family. Awesome tune, beautiful backdrop. AJ for the next 007 tune :)
Thank you, Lars Morten. I see many say that the shield is her mum, she has never confirmed that anywhere I can see. In an interview she was a little cryptic, but I understand the closest people around her was her shield, her life guardians. Her whole family. Its also touching when she sing "forgive me for what I am". I see that as her wish and road to become a superstar. And for that, I am sure her family forgive her.
@@sarlina1 very careful girl 😊💛
@@ClaudioMarcucci7756 Absolutely. And thats why we love her so much. She is very down to earth, so careful, afraid to say anything wrong. The interview at AGT is a good example. She was very humble to be there, and with tear in her eye she was full of respect for Simon. Very touching. In her early days, in some interview she was looking at her mum, to see if her answer was okey. Right there we knew she would be a very caring and loving person 💙
Btw, Claudio, if you have time, try listen to this, another Norwegian singer I am a fan of: ua-cam.com/video/Ft-pqc2_C1k/v-deo.html
Together with Aurora, they are my 3 favorites. And they all come from Norway.. I dont understand what they feed them with.. 😂
@@sarlina1 for you absolutely 😊
I think it's amazing to find out how many good singers there are in Norway, with such a small population, they must love music very much
@@sarlina1 I understand her mother said it was about her.
Bet this girl some day become one of the big stars of all time......, Elvis and ......
To me she is the Velvet Goddess of Soul. She will become another Adelle or bigger.💓
Nice raw reaction. Angie wrote this when she was 11 & was 12 here when she performed it.
I love how you just run out of verbs. We all do, The only word that everyone uses to describes her is "WOW!!!"
Here's 2 other songs she did all of it. Arrangement & lyrics all of it.
She also wrote around 11-12 yrs old. “What is life” ua-cam.com/video/Bv0r77KN7RA/v-deo.html with Dylan Meek on keyboards & she also wrote “Oslo:”ua-cam.com/video/6PsVu4iNmX0/v-deo.html
I think generally she sings it in rehearsal and the musicians go🤯 oh i see, that's what you can do 😳, we better up our game 😂
Thank you for this reaction to Angelina Jordan . She wrote the lyrics and helped with the music. Like rusty said if you want to listen to a song that is whole Angelina Jordan’s work you have to react to «What is life» this is her first song she wrote the lyrics and the music. This song reminds be of a bond theme song and she will do an amazing job if she Get the chance to sing a bond theme song in the future.
12 years old..., and another music master piece...
This one deserves to be sound track of 007 movie... :)
We have seen nothing yet..., nothing. She will be a case, a serious case in the music industry.
Angelina wrote the lyrics on this one, and helped with the music (you can see the credits for the others involved at 2.30 of this video). If you want to see one that is all Angelina's composition, you should check out "What is Life": ua-cam.com/video/Bv0r77KN7RA/v-deo.html It was her first original, and my personal favorite of the three. Much like "shield" transported you to a cabaret bar... "What is Life" will transport you to a smoky jazz club in the 40's. Also being a pianist, you will probably appreciate the piano work of Dylan Meek (a young grammy nominated artist). ...also I believe the acoustic "What is Life" (in the link above) is free from copyright. I have been hoping you will do it at some point.
“What is Life” is a fabulous composition. She is a musical genius and oh what a superb vocalist! I hope I live long enough to go to one of her live concerts one day-that would be so mind-blowing!
Great reaction Greywolf. Very professional. Take care.
I cherd her on to victory at her age of 7 years old. Norway :).
Hi, Greywolf. Buy a big cigar, a bottle of bourbon and listen to Angelina singing "What is Life". Is an original song and it will blow you away. It´s on UA-cam
Her first 2 original songs, What is Life & Oslo, were written when she was 11 & she wrote both the lyrics & the melody. Both are on her 2018 album "It's Magic." She wrote the lyrics for Shield when she was 12, but she had 3 other songwriters help her with the melody that is very "James Bondish." Shield was released as a single. She continues to tweak this song & her most recent performance of it at an outdoor concert in Norway in July 2019 is even better that this, IMHO. My favorite original is her very first song, What is Life, in the acoustic version. It's amazing!!!
I agree with you on her outdoor performance. Astoundingly brilliant.
A new found evidence suggest that Angelina has Shield as early as 2016 when she was just 10.☺️
@@ulyseslabajo yes, me too.
Wonderful
the strike could also be because its from both Norwgian and Swedish national broadcasters, this particular talk show is a collaboration between the 2 tv stations in 2 countrys
@Willy S ahh thats right,forgot about the show also beeing sent there
That must have been great to hear live...
There is a short interview that happens just before this performance. It is the box that appears on the screen at the end of the video.
While Angelina apparently participated in composing the melody, I have no doubt she took a strong role in the arrangement as she does in most of her music. She knows what she wants and what works for her.
Thanks Grey Wolf , Good to see you again, as others have posted her original "What is Life '' is a must watch, simply amazing as well.
It's right that Angelina was 12 when she first published this song, and also in this performance, but I just recently saw a video clip from 2016 of Angelina sining this song ... *when she was 10!*
If you hadn't been so baffled by the song, you would have noticed that there are 3 other names listed as co-writers for the song.
I'm supposing she written the lyrics and the melody, and probably had a lot of ideas regarding the main structure of the arrangement and how she wanted it to sound in order to convey the proper feelings, and then had some help with actually materializing it in regards to orchestration, sound effects and things like that
p.s. I recommend you watch the interview that is linked at the end of the video, it's very nice :)
@Fedor Ivanov The video is very short and I have no authority to publish this private recording, but I can give you a link to a facebook post with photos from the same occasion where the video was recorded
facebook.com/ronny.janssen.180/posts/10157841900405713
That short interview is really a gem. She sings the beginning of "Diamonds are forever" in that interview. What a mesmerising performance!!
It is still availible in her home country :) Thank you for another great reaction. As for something new to react to, looks like you have not done this one, and very few has of the reactors. The one i recomend is a live performance with Alan Walker when she was 10 years old. Here you actualy get 2 songs of her singing with Alan Walker on this live performance. (Video is called: Angelina Jordan sings at Alan Walker is Heading Home LIVE STREAM).
As always, great reaction to Angelina, and yes her originals are just wonderfull. I belive she had some co-writers in this one as it comes to the music. I feel confident that the lyrics are all her own. These matches up so well to the lyrics of her two earlier songs, "What is life" and "Oslo", as it comes to lyrical theme. As she did the music by herself for those earliest two, they comes out a bit more jazzy than "Shield". I must say I love all three of them, they each have theire own character, and the music goes so incredible well allong with the mood of her lyrics.
Thanks for all of your great videos on Angelina. I`m looking forward for all of those comming.
I can`t wait to join you in so many of her wonderfull moments, but I must mention her performance of "A Song For A", (composed for her to sing, by Nico Cartosio). Sadly it is not a live performance, only the recorded version that was made for Cartosio`s album. Still, a totaly amazing performance and yet another genre for Angelina`s long list of genres.
ua-cam.com/video/Bo3mhxPM-uA/v-deo.html Highly recomanded!! :-)
"Oslo" and "What is life?" are the two other songs written by her(at the age 11). You should really check them out. "Oslo" is my absolute favorite. I`m 57 yo and I have never been so impressed by any singer/songwriter before I heard Angelina.
I know you reacted to the song "Creep", sang by Haley Reinhart with PMJ. Angelina definitely has one of those voices, like Haley, that one would immediately recognize. This is even true when Angelina is covering any singer of any style. Keep em coming!
Oh...Jarrell....I found something you are going to jump for joy when you react to these two parts of Angelina Jordan's singing the oldies. Look on your search engine for "Angelina Jordan -A decade of dedication part 1 & 2". You will be transported to another dimension. Enjoy and I hope you react to both of them. I am looking for part 3...no luck yet but I will let you know if I do.💓
Epic period
I believe this is her second song. React to her first song! WHAT IS LIFE. So different and jazzy.
Shield is the correct spelling. 😉
Angelina is a musical genius, she composes her own songs, both lyrics and music. She might have som input with the music, but I believe it’s mostly all her own. I believe she is 12 her, but I might be slightly wrong. 😊
(Rusty; you are welcome to correct me if I am wrong. 😂)
Angelina. .......👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Could you not imagine this song theming a James Bond movie?
hello greywolf all the songs are hers or she is all the songs (er) or maybe the reverse. as soon as she starts to sing the world around stops, she controls the time, its duration its speed etc. another song in the low tone of elvis presley "Are you lonesome tonight" is a real musical delight of interpretation to listen if you like this serious tone hi to you and all your subscribers and to others also in particular. André
Hey Wolf 🐺 welcome back
As far as I know Anglina does all of her arrangements and the band is her band as far as writing the song I'm not sure if she did it alone or with other people I've heard both ways.
Great reaction.Stay Safe 😍
Thank you so much for your reaction, my friend!
We have seen each other in the past with your Jinjer reactions, my favorite band, next to Spiritbox.
OK, Angelina Jordan, what can I say, I've known her for 4 years and when I heard her own song , I cried, so wonderful .................. ... .......
Maybe we'll see you at your next Jinjer reaction >
Jinjer uploaded a new video:
JINJER - Noah (Official Video) | Napalm Records
many greetings from germany and stay safe
Another super reaction from the GreyWolf. She has a new album of all originals that was already to have been released, but the pandemic has caused that to be delayed. She has no new covers on YT, and I don't know what the future holds for her. I don't know if she's still in the U. S., or if she has returned to Norway. Perhaps someone can give that info. For your next reaction I suggest the "leaked" video, "I'm Still Holding Out for You". Here's the link: ua-cam.com/video/Dv8mjCh5iiE/v-deo.html This may be the best thing she has ever done. This demo was leaked when she was 12, almost 13, but I think she was younger when she recorded it. Because the lyrics at the end implied suicide, she was not happy that it was leaked. And she has declared that she will never sing this version of the song again. And I respect her for that. However, if this was released as a single from an album that was being professionally promoted, I believe it would zoom to the top of the charts. Alas, we will never know. Best wishes.
Great reaction! Allways a pleasure to watch. And if you got time, please react to Angelinas version of "Mr. Lonely". I can recomend it 👍
Finally you came to my favorite Song by AJ. I love this Song and this performace. Next you should try out is an other original What is Life. Ut is also good - - off couse! 😁
Angelina helps with the arrangements to all the songs she sings and I was just told she makes her own clothes as well....
Thanks for the reaction. On the spot as always. Still waiting on Lilli's Film 3 reaction, unless you sneaked on it already.
What is Life… another one she wrote!!
This has the quality of a Bond-theme.
#NextBondTheme #007Bond #007Song
Og she doesn't do the next Bond song it's a crime.
I wholeheartedly agree.
Billie Eilish and Finneas did
Yes!! in fact I always hope she's going to try Tina's "Golden Eye" 😇
Thank you for reacting to Angelina again, and thank you for a great reaction video.
Her song Shield, has already been covered in "The Voice" - Norway song competition. You can find the cover of Angelina's song "Shield" here: ua-cam.com/video/bdUaGvdPLuE/v-deo.html
ua-cam.com/video/oLr9PBwg8X4/v-deo.html
That is impressive right?
I agree!
great reaction. u have always given great reaction to Angelina's cover performances. Shield, I love it very much too. Strong lyrics, great beat. Very James Bond theme music caliber.
Her other own song is What Is Life? ua-cam.com/video/Bv0r77KN7RA/v-deo.html I believe she wrote the lyric and the composition. A sweet and thoughtful song. They don't make music like this anymore. She is something else.
Another song, Song For A, was written specific for her to sing. An epic love long. A musical poetry. you will definitely love it. I don't think it's on any of her channels. You can find it here at the original composer's channel. ua-cam.com/video/4_vBAP2_2A0/v-deo.html or ua-cam.com/video/Bo3mhxPM-uA/v-deo.html. It's a wonderful fan-made video. very well-done.
And then there is this song. And it's a controversial one. She did not write it. It's not her song. but she sang it first, before anyone else, even before the original artist. and she set the standard so high that I don't think there will ever be anyone who can do better. IMO, it's literally hers now. but it's not supposed to exist. Strange, isn't it? And it's her best rendition. ever. ua-cam.com/video/Dv8mjCh5iiE/v-deo.html. it's a controversial one. Your decision, GreyWolf.
Angelina Jordan's "Above The Water" is another one of her Originals
