Beautiful reaction Collena, thanks. This interpretation of her is absolutely unique, for her incredible technique, for the ability she had to re-read such an iconic Queen's song in a more intimate way and for the intensity of her interpretation and make such an intimate and emotional version at just 13 years old! This is a splendid example of Angelina's extraordinary and unique talent, her extraordinary intelligence and musical sense, through which she absorbs and transforms the great songs she loves so much. Her phrasing, backed by her wonderful use of breath, always fascinates me and gives me chills every time, despite the fact that she has listened to her hundreds of times. 💛🧡❤
The more you care & know about great music, the more you appreciate the artistis genius of Angelina Jordan. I discovered her when she was 12 & have listened to her music every day for the last 6 years. She's the best, most versatile vocal artist I've heard, ever, & I'm old. I liked this video & subed for more Angelina reactions, there are 100's of great covers & original songs. BTW, nice reaction!
Hi Colena, nice that you took a little look into Angelina's rabbit hole. She was 13 years old when she sang this song, she arranged everything herself, you are just at the beginning and I hope that you continue on your journey, because there is a lot to discover, she is the best singer in the world (in my opinion), but you will find out for yourself and believe me, you will be just as addicted to her voice as all the other fans (Angels), she is also called the barefoot angel with 1000 voices, why she always performs barefoot is another story, she can adapt and improve her voice to every song and also convey a lot of emotions and she has not only written around 200 covers but also 13 originals by herself and 2 written for her, all of which are amazing and even legendary now and there is a lot to tell, I look forward to further reactions and have now subscribed to you, greetings from Germany by the way, she is now 18 years old and according to her own statement has already written over 100 songs that are all waiting to be released (Google Translate)
Absolutely phenomenal performance from this musical genius, the band Queen were so impressed with Angelina’s rendition of their classic song, Queen gave Angelina the copyright to her own arrangement of Bohemian Rhapsody,Angelina also received the Golden buzzer from Judge Heidi Klum and progressed to the final of the show, Angelina is a once in a generation talent, she can sing any genre, her fans who are named Angels say Angelina is the barefoot queen of jazz and soul, Angelina’s beautiful soulful jazzy pitch perfect voice touches your heart and soul, she has amazing voice control and a gorgeous unique silvery vibrato,Welcome to the most talented artist around at present,Angelina signed with Republic records at 14 years old and her uncle Mike is her manager, Angelina greatest influence and inspiration is her grandmother Mery Zamani, Mery introduced Angelina to jazz and the old classic songs when Angelina was 1 1/2 years old, great reaction thanks 🙏
A great video to introduce Angelina’s family, When you react to Bohemian Rhapsody take notice during her performance they highlight audience members in the front row. That is Angelina's Family. From left to right Her uncle and manager Michael Astar, her little sister Juliette, her mother Sarah Astar and her grandmother Mery Zamani. Notice her little sister crossing her fingers as the performance starts. Later her mother wiped tears from her eyes and then again crosses her fingers before Howie speaks.. Also remember she said she had waited 10 years to sing for Simon. When she was 3 years old she was begging her mother to go on 'that Simon show'. ♥👣👸🏻🎷
Checkout Angelina’s own arrangement of ( I Put A Spell On You) black and white studio version when Angelina was 9 years old, it’s absolutely phenomenal!
Great reaction. So you have fallen into a rabbit hole from which you probably will not attempt to escape. To let you know, the remaining members of Queen gave Angelina permission to record this song in her version. I subbed and will be looking for more Angelina reactions.
My advice is to go back to 6,7,8 years old, then 10 and then her teens you will appreciate the Jordan Journey even more. She is about ready to announce herself to the America public even though she is greatly known internationally since the age of 8. Angelina has two channels with 200+ songs/performances in all. She last performed in Las Vegas in February, and was just in the UK for the Ivor Awards and at the Palladium Theatre in London.
Still the most mesmerizing performance I have ever heard ❤ Queen themselves shared this performance on their socials, saying Wow, what a rendition ❤ That is a huuuge compliment 👍

The Norwegian singer, Angelina Jordan is a young legend. now living in LA, Angelina Jordan (curent 18 Yeats old ). She is an elegant artist for the big occasions. Which artist has sung for the Nobel Peace Prize twice, and she sings FIFA's official song before the upcoming World Cup. She has sung for 40,000 in concert with Nora Jones. She has helped to collect 21 million for children in need. Performed for many countries' heads of state on many big occasions. Concert in Las Vegas, with a number of other live concerts. Signed record deal with "Republic Records" at only 14 years old. The list is almost endless ... She is so talented that no one can ignore her, and together with Rebpublic Records, she actually sets the pace herself to total worldfame . Although she herself is an 18-year-old young lady, her taste in music is quality, and not just high bass in the stomach.When the next James Bond film is to be made, who do you think is in the spotlight for a possible theme song? The list of what Angelina has already been involved in is already so extensive that only a deep dive into her performances has to be searched online by yourself. It is too extreme to almost believe! All important people in the music industry know who she is and what she is good at on big occasions. I don't think anyone has the guts to suggest to her a fast track that doesn't suit her. Her integrity is too strong for that! - The remaining members of Queen allowed her to copyright her arrangement of Bohemian Rhapsody! (Translated by Google) Today (18 years old) Angelina Jordan is no longer a talent, but a world-class singer!
I'm glad that you have now had the opportunity to enter into the world of the bare foot princess! But, this is only the beginning of the experience that awaits you if you explore the output that Angelina has produced between the ages of 6 and 18. You will be deluged with comments from AJ's extremely enthusiastic fan base who will have suggestions for what to do next and acquaint you with the wonderful history of this amazing young woman. If you so choose you have a plethora of opportunities. You could look at her performances at age 7 and 8 on Norway's got talent. You could explore her jazz concerts at ages 10 and 11 ("Feeling Good", "Lovin' You", "Diamonds are Forever" . . .}. You could watch any of her many beautiful at home videos accompanied only by guitar ("Stay", "Crazy", "How Great Thou Art" . . . }. Then there are her early originals ("What is Life", "Oslo", "Shield", "Seventh Heaven", "Million Miles"} and her covers done at 14 and 15 ("Billie Jean", "Easy on Me", "My Funny Valentine", "All I Ask" . . .). Not to mention her last couple of years with her Norwegian Concerts, appearance at the FIFA awards, and the release of her new EP, "Old Enough". Let's see; I left out her 2021 Christmas Concert, her performances in Seoul and Japan, her leaked recording of "Still Holding Out for You" and . . . . . Last December she performed "Unchained Melody".at the Nobel Peace Prize ceremonies. The performance is stunning! On February 29 she had two concerts in Las Vegas. Many of those songs are available on James Thiel’s channel (www.youtube.com/@summaEngineer). She is currently collaborating with Toby Gad and today released a redo of “If I Were a Boy” with originals to follow this summer. Yes, Angelina is an amazing talent and a wondrous interpreter of songs. And, in addition to that, her whole story is chronicled in detail from 1.5 years old until today on UA-cam, TikTok, Instagram, and Facebook! As a result, many of us, especially the elders among us, have adopted this Norwegian girl as our honorary granddaughter and spend a bit of each day reading about, listening to, and taking pride in her growth as a singer and as a person.
For everyone who doesn't know yet: Not only did Angelina get the golden buzzer from judge Heidi Klum, but she also received huge praise from the remaining members of the legendary Queen. Queen were delighted with Angelina's arrengement and shared it on Twitter with the words "WOW, what a rendition" (three years later they repeated their praise on TT in March 27th 2023 with the words "absolutely killed it".) What was unfortunately not to be seen here, all four judges came on stage to congratulate Angelina (very rarely). 👣💯 *AJ* 💯👣 BTW, Angelina released her version of Bohemian Rhapsody with permission from Queen on January 24th, 2020 under her own label ANGELINA JORDAN INC. shortly after Angelina celebrated her 14th birthday. (There are now over 16 million streams on Spotify alone) 🤗🤗
Sorry you are over 10 year behind her musical journey, but very happy to have you join our band of “Angels”. I’m a bit late to the party as well. I’ve been watching for only 5&1/2 years so far but have watched every video I know of sense. Some of them hundreds of times. Fasten your seat belt for the ride of your life!
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. Even though she has been compared by many to Amy Winehouse, her major influence is Billie Holiday. Other influences are Dinah Washington, Louis Armstrong, Frank Sinatra, Elvis Presley, Etta James,Whitney Houston, and Adele 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 at age 7 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!" For Queen to respond to someone covering one of their songs is quite a feat since they rarely react to anyone. She did not win, but her fan base grew and expanded her popularity. Now 18 years old, living in Los Angeles, and currently signed with Republic Records, whose clients include Taylor Swift, Ariana Grande, The Weeknd, and Drake to name a few. Her family and Republic Records had agreed not to heavily promote her just yet so she can live as normal of a life as possible and finish her schooling. From what we know, she is finally done with school. She had a single that came out May 5th called Love Don't Let Me Go, a new EP called Old Enough that came out Friday, July 21st, 2023, a newly released video of her new song called Now I'm The Fool, and a new album of original music which will be coming out some time this year. Angelina released her new single, Our Time, and is fantastic! She 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. On September 22, 2023, Angelina had her first U.S. concert that sold out in Portsmouth, New Hampshire. On December 11, 2023, she was asked to come back and perform at the Nobel Peace Prize Concert. She first performed at this prestigious event in 2014 when she was 8. On Feb.29th, 2024, she performed 2 shows on one night at the Westgate Las Vegas Resort and Casino. A film crew followed her and created a documentary of her called Angelina Jordan: 10 Years In The Making which premiered on her official UA-cam channel on March 29th, 2024. Her fans call her The Barefoot Princess. She always performs with no shoes when she sings. Why? The reason is very special. When she was 6 years old, she was traveling with her family in Iran where she met a poor shoeless 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 sing for the whole world, 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!
Angelina Jordan without many explanations is and will be an elite performer of the highest level because she has an unmatched, unique, original talent, AJ she was born to sing, she is a prodigy”, Mexico
Welcome to the world of Angelina the princess of jazz music who does not wear shoes during her performance and for a very good reason... Enjoy...🦶🦶👑🗣🎙🎷
If you are going to follow Angelina career your in for a treat ,she was 13 hear ,she is now 18 ,today she released a cover of If I Were A Boy ,enjoyed your reaction 😀
Angelina Jordan, 13 here, is now 18 and considered by many as one of the finest vocalists and musical savant around today and for many a generation. I hope you take the deep dive into her work of over 200 covers and 14 originals ..toda6 she released a collaboration with Toby Gad singing his song “If I Were A Boy” I enjoyed your reaction and am surprised so few comments..come on Angels..do your thing )) Subd
Thanks for the information, Kevin! Angelina Jordan's talent is incredible. I’ll defo be diving deeper into her work, especially with so many covers and originals to explore. I appreciate your support and kind words about my reaction. Looking forward to more! 😀
@@voicesavvy A must for anyone new to Angelina Jordan has to be her cover of Screamin J Hawkins “I Put A Spell On You” aged 9 yrs 2 months..note that the performance is HER arrangement in collaboration with the jazz band..I promise you will not believe what you witness..around 11 million views..then perhaps take a look at how she won Norways Got Talent aged 7/8 securing 46% of the total vote singing Billie Holliday, Sonny & Cher and Gershwin! It’s always a good idea to react to individual performance videos with English subtitles rather than the compilation video out there …anyhow, I’m rambling! Here’s the link to IPASOY..ua-cam.com/video/nwFloCPXzCs/v-deo.htmlsi=PNTMYdo46u6ldz_n
A&R (Artists and repertoire) Rob Christie Republic Records Studio Director at Universal Music Group Manhattan Beach, California is Angelina's A&R person, and he has been working with AJ since she signed with the largest record company in the world at the age of 14, four years ago. Rob was the MC of AJ Christmas Show that aired Dec 23, of 21. AJ’s Christmas Show that live-streamed on Dec 23 of 21 had some of the most important musicians of our time: Frank Sinatra's drummer for 6 years, and sun in-law of the late Henry Mancini, Greg Field has won 9 Grammys, and the bass player, Chuck Berghofer who also played for Sinatra for 6 years, and toured with Barbara Streisand, accompanied AJ on her Christmas Show, and they stated that she had the "storytelling ability of the greats, Streisand, Fitzgerald, Vaughan, including Sinatra, to name a few. The main pianist, a five-time nominated for Grammys, Shelly Berg, stated in all his years working with the greatest vocalist, he had never encountered a talent like AJ. Did I forget to mention Jimmy Z, the famous Sax Player who worked with Rod Steward, Etta James, the Eurythmics, and Doctor Dre, was part of the band for the show? Jimmy stated that AJ was the best he has ever played for. Rob Christie Republic Records Studio Director at Universal Music Group Manhattan Beach, California played the guitar, and was the MC of the show. (I can't list the complete backgrounds on all the band members because it would take several pages to do them justice.) Angelina stated that she would rather perform than take a breath, and she has never been forced to perform, it has been her decision. (CopyRight) AJ now lives in West Hollywood in Los Angeles, where the record company Republic Records has built a separate music studio for her. She states, "I feel incredibly lucky to have been signed by one of the biggest record companies in the world. I have my own studio where I make my own music. There will also be a lot of concerts in the future because I have released an EP. I will soon go on a world tour and play my songs, (This was stated to TV2 in Norway on Aug. 21, 2023) (CopyRight)
For anybody new to Angelina, who wants to get to know her quickly, I created this playlist with 11 songs from age 7 to 17 (plus a trailer for a documentary describing her career up to 2023): ua-cam.com/play/PLddfS789jBCrSUcMxwCiHeJi8A9zN5xt3.html 1. Gloomy Sunday, her 2013 audition to Norway's Got Talent, when she was 7, which was aired in 2014 and then immediatly went viral. 2. Fly Me to the Moon, live on The View, was her US debut later in 2014, and also went viral. It gathered more than 37 Million views on UA-cam, and many more on Facebook. 3. I Put a Spell On You, the song where Screamin' Jay Hawkins got his nickname from, has 11 Million Views so far. Her cover is closer to his original than most well known covers of it. She was 9 years old here. 4. Feeling Good, in a version sung on TV in 2016 while still being 10 years old, though she already started to perform the song in public about a year earlier. 5. A Million Years Ago, one of 13 Adele covers she did, as an impressive acoustic home studio recording. 6. Shield, from 2018, was the third original she relased that year at 12 years old. It is about the protection and support she gets from her family. 7. Bohemian Rhapsody, in her own stripped down arrangement on AGT the Champions Season 2, wowed everyone, including the group Queen themselves, who twittered "Wow, what a performance of Bohemian Rhapsody!" 8. Million Miles, which she wrote and produced together with Stargate, is about the loss of a close person (her grandfather), and was the first song she released 2020 with Republic Records. 9. 7th Heaven, her 2nd song with RR from 2021, is encouraging people to persue their dreams, like she did. 10. Suspicious Minds, done 2022, is an Elvis cover as unique as Bohemian Rhapsody was. 11. Love Don't Let Me Go, her third release with Republic Records, and the first new song on her recently released EP "Old Enough" of total 6 new original songs. If you are more interested in her recent performances, here is a playlist containing releases and performances from her last 3 years, including all titels from "Old Enough": ua-cam.com/play/PLddfS789jBCqMgW5xQeK97nibjJCeDme5.html She cites Billie Holiday as her biggest influence. And she covered more songs from Adele than by any other artist, followed by Amy Winehouse, Elvis, and Sam Smith.
Hello! In this performance I think Angelina was just 13, she turned 14 in a few days. Another brave singer who faces a very well-known song. A few days ago it was Sohiang and today Angelina. Thanks Collena, you always bring us nice performances and I learn from your knowledge. Best wishes 👏👋🎶
Hey Koma! Yes, she is truly a brave singer! I love how she made this song her own. Thanks for the info! I'm really glad you enjoy the performances and find my insights helpful. 🙏🏾😀
I hope you'll go back and watch her performances on Norway's Got Talent 2014. She was 7 years old and won the show over adults that were vying for that title.
As much as we enjoy her now, I think most of us would love to repeat the journey. I guess we get to do that vicariously through your journey. Each song, cover or original is a treat as one never knows what exactly is coming. Angelina has so many nuances in her voice (Jazz background), she can basically do whatever she wants when covering or creating anew. For a musical tease and a look at who she is I recommend "10 Years in The Making" that was done by her Mother during her Las Vegas concert this year and narrated by Angelina. It will give you some insight as to how she came to be. ua-cam.com/video/I_59PZXkusc/v-deo.html Really liked your insight on Angelina. You have no idea what is in store for you. All The Best subbed
Ther are many sides of Angelina's singing. "Unchained Melody" at the Nobel Peace Prize ceremony is another fantastic delicate emotional performance at age 17. At the other end is what we call her "beast mode" which includes "I Put a Spell on you" at age 9 ang "Lovin You" at about 11. For modern sassy pop songs I suggest "Bad Valentine" her original from this year and "Diamond" another original from last year. I hope ypur schedule can handle an addiction. There ate 30 others I would like to recommend,, later. There are also perhaps 20 + stories about how wonderful a person she is. Welcome to Angelina's world.
*** follow-up *** So, here is my SNC: Welcome to the universe of Angelina Jordan and thanks a billion for this nice reaction to her - I'm sure to hear more reactions to her from you! ...because it is... ...too late! From now on you are assimilated in Angelina's entourage! Resistance is futile... Even if you won't believe it and if you are in denial about it: Only listen to one song sung by Angelina Jordan and you are hooked on listening her voice! Maybe you aren't aware of it yet... a legend says in rare cases there are humans who can resist.... but I can't believe it 😏
Every time it's a pleasure to watch people reacting to Angelina Jordan - especially when it is the first time - and I hope to see more of your reactions on Angelina Jordan... 😏 So a little Question: When you react to her cover "I put a spell on you" b/w studio version at 9yo (ua-cam.com/video/nwFloCPXzCs/v-deo.html - btw. like here she made most of her cover arrangements by herself! ..at the beginning she made her last changes for the piano arrangement and gave her "wishes" to the band leader..) it would be nice to react in the same reaction video IN ADVANCE to the original from Screemin' Jay Hawkins (from 1956 - Live: ua-cam.com/video/7kGPhpvqtOc/v-deo.html or another version of it: ua-cam.com/video/orNpH6iyokI/v-deo.html and here a version from 1990 in Tokyo - I feel, this is like the version Angelina has taken as the model, but I don't know it ( 😏 ): ua-cam.com/video/Bb9ag8bch_U/v-deo.html or as Audio-Studio-Version: ua-cam.com/video/82cdnAUvsw8/v-deo.html) that's real fun :-D - and than you will find out that Angelinas cover is a virtuoso tribute to Jay Hawkins :-D At the beginning you see her something writing on a sheet and a man reading it and smiles than.. in an interview this man, who was the "bandleader", said, this were some "wishes" from Angelina (she was every time very polite he said) for changes of her arrangement for the piano 😃) The candle you can see at about 0:12 shows a portrait of J. Hawkins - I think her grandma bought it at a concert in Tokyo 😏 At 0:26 you can see the bassist smiling - I can imagine that he smiles about the expectable reactions of the listeners in the moment, when Angelina starts to sing at 0:30 😏
Btw. I read somewhere that her grandma was in person at a concert of SJH in Japan (as she, AJs mother and uncle lived there some years - AJs grandpa is Japanese) and there AJs grandma bought this candle as a souvenir 😏 ...I hope this story isn't a HOAX 😃
Maybe you wonder, what videos you should next react to 😏 ... Furthermore there is a big pile of over 170 videos on UA-cam with Angelina Jordans rehearsals, covers and originals... and each and every one is worth to listen and to react to - even the very early recordings when she was 6 yo! She is born January 10th 2006 in Oslo/Norge (English is her 3rd language 😏), sung her first notes of a Whitney Houston song with 18 months (link see down), started researching the internet for Jazz 3 yo, entered Norske Talenter (Norwegian Got Talent) 7 yo and won it 8 yo, was on AGT The Champions (recorded Oct. 2019, aired Jan. 2020) where she didn't won - some rumours say because she/her mother didn't sign the contract with the enterprise of Simon Cowell for to stay independent - meanwhile she has signed with Republic Records (musicnorway.no/aktuelt/industry-talk-michael-astar ). Btw. her full name is Angelina Jordan Astar, but in most occasions she is introduced as Angelina Jordan - she herself answered in the audition of Norske Talenter her name is "Angelina Jordan"… 😏

In the meanwhile there are some more live versions of her originals and some cover songs from her summer 2022 concerts like in Kurbadhagen... 😏 Besides she is mostly making her very own arrangement there are some very interesting videos of her, where she uses the original arrangement or a big one of someone else like "I Have Nothing" (Whitney Houston Tribute) ua-cam.com/video/eTcvvO6B3Io/v-deo.html or "Fly Me To The Moon" in the arrangement of Quincy Jones (rehearsal with concert mixed audio for his birthday party in the O2 arena): ua-cam.com/video/OMkwoqUNNkE/v-deo.html .
And here is a video where it is explained (with English subtitles) why she performs barefoot: ua-cam.com/video/A-OKLslO74Y/v-deo.html and here an Interview in the Norwegian TV (with English subtitles) from 2015 after she has published her book about the story why she is barefoot when performing: ua-cam.com/video/-cCLDY0CSZ8/v-deo.html
In addition to school she got also vocal training at the Oslo School of Music and Performing Arts after-school program (I read, that this school said, they couldn't teach her more stuff because she has all learned what she could learn in this school ;-) ) - and btw. she plays also grand piano, violin, flute and guitar, make her arrangements herself, wrote a book, sew clothes for herself (partly with art from her grandma like in her first AGT performance and in her music video "Shield"). So, she is a real all-rounder and I think all her fans are eager to see and hear what she is doing next...
All the other things like more recommendation, chronological playlists and so on you can read in the comments of the mega-fans like Fernando F., Rusty (AJ videos in chronological order ua-cam.com/channels/55am_6Y5-Fj4ri8xOInstA.html), Andy Schnell, ...
Thanks a billion again for your reaction! … and see you soon with your next AJ reactions - with greetings from Berlin/Germany 😃 Best regards Andreas 😎

This is the most recent (May 31, 2024) Angelina Jordan Single Release (With Songwriter Toby Gad) - If I Were A Boy: ua-cam.com/video/eJr-BfUQ2jE/v-deo.html
Welcome to “The World Of Angelina Jordan Astar” (full name). “The Barefoot Princess With The Velvet Voice And A Mona Lisa Smile”. Born Jan 10, 2006 in Oslo Norway. From her audition on Norway’s Got Talent (2014 - age 7 - Gloomy Sunday "Billy Holiday") through the final on America’s Got Talent The Champions (2020 - age 13 - Goodbye Yellow Brick Road "Sir Elton John") and the 130+ videos in between you will not be disappointed. This includes three originals song: “What Is Life”, “Oslo” and “Shield” Since then she has done many new covers and now her new singles "Million Miles" and “7th Heaven”, along with her movie soundtrack "Mercy" from the motion picture “The Hating Game”. As well as her brilliant version of Elvis’s “Suspicious Mind”. She released her latest album “Old Enough” and it is definitely some of her best stuff. My personal favorite is her cover of Lana Del Rey's "Born To Die". Although the soundtrack is really growing on me.
First of all Welcome to AJs world, second thing you will want to do is to make Angelina Jordan her own play list because after hearing on or 2 more performances from her you will be hooked and a hint, he is loved by a LOT or her fans she calls her Angels, since your at age 13 you will want to hear the other 2 songs from 2020 AGT , one of which she recreated Elton John's "YELLOW BRICK ROAD" Then your will want to go back to her 9 year old self where she made her own Black and White version of Screaming Jay Hawkins "I PUT A SPELL ON YOU" Then at age 10 she was handed a demo to record which her family never reliesed yet it was "leaked" the song is called "ILL BE HOLDING OUT FOR YOU" ,,, then to hear her and her guitarist at her house singing some one shot wonders where they pick a song he learns the cords for about 5 minutes and she looks up the words and starts singing, 12 years old singing Rihannas "STAY" pure raw talent!!!!! And there is another 250+ covers and originals from her first studio tryout at age 6 to today's rubbing elbows at 18 with the biggest names in music. Still singing still writing and still performing
What a wonderful reaction! Angelina and Toby Gad just dropped a video of her performing "If I Were A Boy". Toby Gad and BC Jean originally co-wrote this song, with BC being the original performer. Shortly after that Beyonce, in collaboration with Toby and BC, recorded the song. Fast forward to today and Toby has decided to re-record some of his hit songs. He chose Angelina to perform "If I Were a Boy". He is on the piano in this new video. It's quite a stunning performance... ua-cam.com/video/eJr-BfUQ2jE/v-deo.html
Angelina is not just an unbelievable talent, she is an inspiration to all singers or upcoming singers out there. edit: felt a little fast and not much analysis, for such a big song. Just saying.. Subscribing for more...
Welcome to Angelina's world! She came onto the world stage ten years ago, winning Norway's Got Talent at age eight. In the years since, there have been over 200 performances, concert clips, home studio recordings, and now her original songs. You've got a lot of catching up to do, and you'll enjoy every minute.
A barefoot princess with a hypnotic voice. Born Angelina Jordan Astar on January 10, 2006 in Oslo, Norway to her Norwegian mother, Sara Astar and her Swedish father, Gerry Christian Slattman. Angelina started singing around 18 months of age, after listening to Whitney Houston on UA-cam. She quickly became obsessed with listening to music videos and her maternal grandmother, Mery Zamani got Angelina interested in classic jazz. Mery Zamani is Iranian and was a prodigy as an artist and poet while growing up in Iran. Angelina attended the Oslo Waldorf School and participated in the Oslo School of Music and Performing Arts after-school program, where starting around age 4, she had training in music but no vocal training. Her teachers were smart enough to not attempt to change what she was doing vocally. More recently she along with her grandmother have designed and made the clothing she wears on stage. Why Angelina always performs barefoot At age 6, while traveling in the Middle East with her mother and grandmother, Angelina noticed a girl around her age standing on the side of the road, asking people to step on her bathroom scale to be weighed in hopes of getting some money. Angelina took off her shoes so as to not get the scale dirty and stepped on the scale many times to make the girl feel better. Angelina befriends the girl who was not wearing shoes and has scars on her feet, and learns she is an orphan. The orphan girl tells Angelina how beautiful she thinks her shoes are. Angelina says her shoes don’t fit her well and she wants to give her shoes to the orphan girl who thanks Angelina for giving her the shoes. Angelina asked the girl what she wanted to be when she grew up and the girl replied, “I want to become a doctor, but that will never happen since I have no parents and I have siblings so I have to do whatever is necessary for us to survive.” Angelina told the girl to never give up on her dreams. The poor girl asked Angelina what she wanted to be when she grew up and Angelina replied that she wanted to sing for the whole world. The poor girl said she would pray every day so Angelina’s dream would come true. Angelina still says she thinks of that homeless girl every day and has always performed barefoot to remind her of all the children who are less fortunate. At age 9, she became the youngest published author in Norway’s history by writing a book about this encounter in the Middle East. PLEASE PURCHASE Angelina’s book from her merchandise store on her official website, angelinajordanofficial Angelina, at age 6 and 7, did record a few songs in a recording studio at her school, most notably “I Who Have Nothing”, a truly remarkable performance for a 7 year old. At age 7, Angelina’s audition on Norway’s Got Talent, was a cover of Billie Holiday’s “Gloomy Sunday”, a song which was banned by a number of European countries during World War II because authorities worried the song would increase the suicide rate. Truly bizarre that this is the song to launch the career of a child musical prodigy. One of the judges on NGT cried. Angelina had turned 8 years old for her next performance on NGT, covering Billie Holiday’s “I’m a Fool to Want You” singing acapella which was required by NGT unless the singer also played an instrument while singing. This was the Judge’s cut round of the competition and was not performed in front of an audience. In the Semi Final round of NGT, Angelina sang “Bang Bang” which was written by Sonny Bono and was first performed by his wife Cher but is best known sung by Nancy Sinatra. The improvement in each performance is incredible even though there were only a couple months between them. In the Finals, Angelina did a cover of George Gershwin’s, “Summertime” and won the contest, capturing 46% of the votes from the ten finalists. When asked what she would like to do with the prize money she won (500,000 kroner or about $80,000), Angelina replied, “I want to give it to the poor children”. Angelina had become a star in her native Norway and her videos on UA-cam went viral. She gave a few concerts during the summer of 2014 while 8 years old. In December 2014, Angelina realized a life-long desire to sing at the Save the Children's Peace Prize Celebration which is part of the Noble Peace Prize celebration. Angelina’s family took her to United States, Brazil, Germany, France, United Kingdom, Russia, South Korea, Singapore among other corners of Earth, to perform for heads of state and to help raise money for charity. All before Angelina turned 14. At age 9, Angelina recorded a music video covering the 1956 Jay Hawkin’s classic, “I Put a Spell On You”. The video begins by showing Angelina writing her “wishes” for how she wants to perform the song. Angelina has always created her own arrangements for her cover songs. At age 10 and just a week before her 11th birthday, Angelina recorded a demo of “I’m Still Holding Out for You”. Her family never pursued having that recording officially released but someone leaked it on a UA-cam video. Thankfully, everyone involved with that song is now ok with the leaked version. Many angels (fans) believe this is one of Angelina’s best performances. When Angelina was 11, she performed a number of concerts in Norway with a jazz/rock band. Those concerts included up to 14 songs, each remarkably performed. Angelina seems to be at her best when on stage, never nervous, only 100% confident. Also at age 11, Angelina recorded her “It’s Magic” album which has, at times, been in the top 10 best selling jazz albums. On June 27, 2018, at age 12, Jordan performed Frank Sinatra “Fly Me to the Moon” for Quincy Jones in The O2 Arena in London. She has said that was the high point of her young career which was already in it’s 6th year. During 2018, Angelina lost her paternal grandfather, her friend Avicii and one of her idols, Aretha Franklin. She did a moving tribute for each. In 2019, Angelina accepted an invitation to compete in the 2nd season of America’s Got Talent (AGT), The Champions. She had, since age 3, wanted to perform for Simon Cowell and she earned his praise with her genius arrangement of “Bohemian Rhapsody”. The surviving members of Queen loved it so much they put a link to it on their Twitter. Angelina was eliminated after covering Elton John’s “Goodbye Yellow Brick Road”. Angelina’s family refused to sign any agreement with AGT. Angelina, before age 14, had covered more than 130 songs from 80 different artists, spanning at least 8 genres, all of which are available on UA-cam. Angelina has always made changes to each song she covers and often her version is preferred over the original. On UA-cam, search on The Complete Works of Angelina Jordan as Rusty Shackleford has put all songs in one file and has a complete playlist in the description of that video. The pandemic hit shortly after her performances on AGT and likely caused a change of plans by her family, most notably her Uncle Michael who is her manager. Her family agreed to a contract with Republic Records in August 2020. Republic Records declared Angelina Jordan their highest priority new artist. Reportedly her family requested Republic to allow her as normal a childhood as possible and therefore have yet to fully promote her. During the pandemic, Angelina was often seen buying meals for the homeless on the streets of Los Angeles. In November 2020, Angelina released “Million Miles” which she wrote after the passing of her beloved maternal grandfather. She dedicated the song to anyone who has ever lost a loved one. Angelina had previously released, 3 other original songs: “What is Life”, “Oslo” and “Shield” In April 2021, her original “7th Heaven” was released. A jazzy, danceable, inspiring song. Angelina has posted numerous short performances on Tik Tok and Instagram. Angelina had concerts in Norway in July 2022. In December 2022, Angelina performed at the Asian American Awards in Los Angeles. On 2/27/23, Angelina performed at the FIFA Awards ceremony in Paris, France, with a viewing audience in the millions. On May 5th, 2023, Angelina released her original "Love Don't Let Me Go". On July 23th she released her orginal EP “Old Enough”. Angelina perform Concert at the Music Hall in Portsmouth New Hampshire on Sept 22nd, 2023. It Was a great concert, who was not and could regret it, a big mistake. On 10/27/23 she released her new orginal singiel “Our Time”. In November 2023, she was presented as a debutante at Le Bal des débutantes in Paris. On 12/08/23 she released new Marry Christmas EP “Driving Home for Christmas”. On 12/10/23 she sing in Oslo at the Nobel Peace Prize Celebration - Unchained Melody tribute to 2023 Nobel Peace Prize laureate Iranian human rights activist Narges Mohammadi. On february 29, 2024 she had two concerts in Las Vegas, Nevada,on the Elvis stage. On May 16, 2024, the first fruits of Angelina's cooperation with Tobi Gad were released. This German composer and record producer based in Los Angeles invited Angeline to an intimate concert at the Hotel Cafe JESSE & FRIENDS, the same one where Adel sang and was discovered. Tobi then took Angelina to London, where she performed His song If I Were A Boy at the London Palladium, and they recorded two versions of the song, Live At Saint James Church, and another studio version illustrated with a film from the streets of London. It seems that Tobi has started cooperation with Angelina and there are several joint songs in the pipeline. At the May concert in Los Angeles, one of them was presented: BAD VALENTINE.
Bohemian Rhapsody The reaction by the public to Angelina Jordan’s rearranged version of Bohemian Rhapsody on AGT in 2020, when she was 13, almost 14, was paramount to an earthquake being felt around the world, this video, and others of this performance have been viewed more that 150 million times. AJ's videos have been viewed over 4 billion times On Facebook, and over 1.8 billion times on UA-cam as of Feb 20, 2023 (This does not count Instagram, or TikTok. We don't just have a STAR in AJ, we have a SUPPER NOVA. Angelina Jordan is taking the universe by storm.) (CopyRight)
👍👍😊😊NEWS! - NEWS - NEWS! Please next from Angelina Jordan - "Bad Valentine" The newest song from Angelina is the rawest and most amazing song I've ever heard. We know that Angelina is a super mega vocalist, but this was so good and powerful that it can't actually be described in words. WARNING! That song will blow your socks off!
Hi Savvy, thanks for this professional reaction and analysis... even if you already got some comments with good information allow me sending you my "standard newbies comment" (SNC) - maybe you can find some for you new information in it ;-) … ... (because of length limits in YT-comments my SFC follows in the next comment 😏)…
Not to be rude, but how in the world can someone who appears to be quite knowledgeable about music, not have heard of Angelina in the past 10 years? Besides that, that was a very nice reaction.
Nice reaction and welcome. Looking forward to more Angelina.
Nice reaction, see you on the next one.
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it. Yes, see you on the next one! 😉🙏🏾
to a piece of musical genius and history
Beautiful reaction Collena, thanks. This interpretation of her is absolutely unique, for her incredible technique, for the ability she had to re-read such an iconic Queen's song in a more intimate way and for the intensity of her interpretation and make such an intimate and emotional version at just 13 years old! This is a splendid example of Angelina's extraordinary and unique talent, her extraordinary intelligence and musical sense, through which she absorbs and transforms the great songs she loves so much. Her phrasing, backed by her wonderful use of breath, always fascinates me and gives me chills every time, despite the fact that she has listened to her hundreds of times. 💛🧡❤
And just like that, the most profound musical prodigy on the planet has entered your life. Enjoy the journey ❤
The more you care & know about great music, the more you appreciate the artistis genius of Angelina Jordan. I discovered her when she was 12 & have listened to her music every day for the last 6 years. She's the best, most versatile vocal artist I've heard, ever, & I'm old. I liked this video & subed for more Angelina reactions, there are 100's of great covers & original songs. BTW, nice reaction!
wonderful reaction
Angelina Jordan the genius and prodigy. Best singer on the planet.
Welcome to our world great reaction please do some more angelina she started very young enjoy 😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇
Angelina is the most moving singer I've ever heard.
Hi Colena, nice that you took a little look into Angelina's rabbit hole. She was 13 years old when she sang this song, she arranged everything herself, you are just at the beginning and I hope that you continue on your journey, because there is a lot to discover, she is the best singer in the world (in my opinion), but you will find out for yourself and believe me, you will be just as addicted to her voice as all the other fans (Angels), she is also called the barefoot angel with 1000 voices, why she always performs barefoot is another story, she can adapt and improve her voice to every song and also convey a lot of emotions and she has not only written around 200 covers but also 13 originals by herself and 2 written for her, all of which are amazing and even legendary now and there is a lot to tell, I look forward to further reactions and have now subscribed to you, greetings from Germany by the way, she is now 18 years old and according to her own statement has already written over 100 songs that are all waiting to be released (Google Translate)
Absolutely phenomenal performance from this musical genius, the band Queen were so impressed with Angelina’s rendition of their classic song, Queen gave Angelina the copyright to her own arrangement of Bohemian Rhapsody,Angelina also received the Golden buzzer from Judge Heidi Klum and progressed to the final of the show, Angelina is a once in a generation talent, she can sing any genre, her fans who are named Angels say Angelina is the barefoot queen of jazz and soul, Angelina’s beautiful soulful jazzy pitch perfect voice touches your heart and soul, she has amazing voice control and a gorgeous unique silvery vibrato,Welcome to the most talented artist around at present,Angelina signed with Republic records at 14 years old and her uncle Mike is her manager, Angelina greatest influence and inspiration is her grandmother Mery Zamani, Mery introduced Angelina to jazz and the old classic songs when Angelina was 1 1/2 years old, great reaction thanks 🙏
A great video to introduce Angelina’s family,
When you react to Bohemian Rhapsody take notice during her performance they highlight audience members in the front row. That is Angelina's Family. From left to right Her uncle and manager Michael Astar, her little sister Juliette, her mother Sarah Astar and her grandmother Mery Zamani. Notice her little sister crossing her fingers as the performance starts. Later her mother wiped tears from her eyes and then again crosses her fingers before Howie speaks.. Also remember she said she had waited 10 years to sing for Simon. When she was 3 years old she was begging her mother to go on 'that Simon show'. ♥👣👸🏻🎷
Checkout Angelina’s own arrangement of ( I Put A Spell On You) black and white studio version when Angelina was 9 years old, it’s absolutely phenomenal!
The most beautiful voice you'll ever hear !!!
Great reaction. So you have fallen into a rabbit hole from which you probably will not attempt to escape. To let you know, the remaining members of Queen gave Angelina permission to record this song in her version. I subbed and will be looking for more Angelina reactions.
Great reaction.😀New subscriber here for more Angelina.😀
My advice is to go back to 6,7,8 years old, then 10 and then her teens you will appreciate the Jordan Journey even more. She is about ready to announce herself to the America public even though she is greatly known internationally since the age of 8. Angelina has two channels with 200+ songs/performances in all. She last performed in Las Vegas in February, and was just in the UK for the Ivor Awards and at the Palladium Theatre in London.
Still the most mesmerizing performance I have ever heard ❤ Queen themselves shared this performance on their socials, saying Wow, what a rendition ❤ That is a huuuge compliment 👍

The Norwegian singer, Angelina Jordan is a young legend. now living in LA, Angelina Jordan (curent 18 Yeats old ). She is an elegant artist for the big occasions. Which artist has sung for the Nobel Peace Prize twice, and she sings FIFA's official song before the upcoming World Cup. She has sung for 40,000 in concert with Nora Jones. She has helped to collect 21 million for children in need. Performed for many countries' heads of state on many big occasions. Concert in Las Vegas, with a number of other live concerts. Signed record deal with "Republic Records" at only 14 years old. The list is almost endless ... She is so talented that no one can ignore her, and together with Rebpublic Records, she actually sets the pace herself to total worldfame . Although she herself is an 18-year-old young lady, her taste in music is quality, and not just high bass in the stomach.When the next James Bond film is to be made, who do you think is in the spotlight for a possible theme song? The list of what Angelina has already been involved in is already so extensive that only a deep dive into her performances has to be searched online by yourself. It is too extreme to almost believe!
All important people in the music industry know who she is and what she is good at on big occasions. I don't think anyone has the guts to suggest to her a fast track that doesn't suit her. Her integrity is too strong for that! - The remaining members of Queen allowed her to copyright her arrangement of Bohemian Rhapsody!
(Translated by Google)
Today (18 years old) Angelina Jordan is no longer a talent, but a world-class singer!
She released her interception of. if I was a boy earlier today. So welcome to the party
Lol let her toe dip with AJ first before diving into the deep end lol
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
I'm glad that you have now had the opportunity to enter into the world of the bare foot princess! But, this is only the beginning of the experience that awaits you if you explore the output that Angelina has produced between the ages of 6 and 18. You will be deluged with comments from AJ's extremely enthusiastic fan base who will have suggestions for what to do next and acquaint you with the wonderful history of this amazing young woman.
If you so choose you have a plethora of opportunities. You could look at her performances at age 7 and 8 on Norway's got talent. You could explore her jazz concerts at ages 10 and 11 ("Feeling Good", "Lovin' You", "Diamonds are Forever" . . .}. You could watch any of her many beautiful at home videos accompanied only by guitar ("Stay", "Crazy", "How Great Thou Art" . . . }. Then there are her early originals ("What is Life", "Oslo", "Shield", "Seventh Heaven", "Million Miles"} and her covers done at 14 and 15 ("Billie Jean", "Easy on Me", "My Funny Valentine", "All I Ask" . . .). Not to mention her last couple of years with her Norwegian Concerts, appearance at the FIFA awards, and the release of her new EP, "Old Enough". Let's see; I left out her 2021 Christmas Concert, her performances in Seoul and Japan, her leaked recording of "Still Holding Out for You" and . . . . .
Last December she performed "Unchained Melody".at the Nobel Peace Prize ceremonies. The performance is stunning! On February 29 she had two concerts in Las Vegas. Many of those songs are available on James Thiel’s channel (www.youtube.com/@summaEngineer). She is currently collaborating with Toby Gad and today released a redo of “If I Were a Boy” with originals to follow this summer.
Yes, Angelina is an amazing talent and a wondrous interpreter of songs. And, in addition to that, her whole story is chronicled in detail from 1.5 years old until today on UA-cam, TikTok, Instagram, and Facebook! As a result, many of us, especially the elders among us, have adopted this Norwegian girl as our honorary granddaughter and spend a bit of each day reading about, listening to, and taking pride in her growth as a singer and as a person.
For everyone who doesn't know yet:
Not only did Angelina get the golden buzzer from judge Heidi Klum, but she also received huge praise from the remaining members of the legendary Queen. Queen were delighted with Angelina's arrengement and shared it on Twitter with the words "WOW, what a rendition" (three years later they repeated their praise on TT in March 27th 2023 with the words "absolutely killed it".) What was unfortunately not to be seen here, all four judges came on stage to congratulate Angelina (very rarely). 👣💯 *AJ* 💯👣
BTW, Angelina released her version of Bohemian Rhapsody with permission from Queen on January 24th, 2020 under her own label ANGELINA JORDAN INC. shortly after Angelina celebrated her 14th birthday. (There are now over 16 million streams on Spotify alone) 🤗🤗
Sorry you are over 10 year behind her musical journey, but very happy to have you join our band of “Angels”. I’m a bit late to the party as well. I’ve been watching for only 5&1/2 years so far but have watched every video I know of sense. Some of them hundreds of times.
Fasten your seat belt for the ride of your life!
Enjoyed your reaction very much, and looking forward to lots more Angelina on your channel.
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. Even though she has been compared by many to Amy Winehouse, her major influence is Billie Holiday. Other influences are Dinah Washington, Louis Armstrong, Frank Sinatra, Elvis Presley, Etta James,Whitney Houston, and Adele 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 at age 7 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!" For Queen to respond to someone covering one of their songs is quite a feat since they rarely react to anyone. She did not win, but her fan base grew and expanded her popularity.
Now 18 years old, living in Los Angeles, and currently signed with Republic Records, whose clients include Taylor Swift, Ariana Grande, The Weeknd, and Drake to name a few. Her family and Republic Records had agreed not to heavily promote her just yet so she can live as normal of a life as possible and finish her schooling. From what we know, she is finally done with school. She had a single that came out May 5th called Love Don't Let Me Go, a new EP called Old Enough that came out Friday, July 21st, 2023, a newly released video of her new song called Now I'm The Fool, and a new album of original music which will be coming out some time this year. Angelina released her new single, Our Time, and is fantastic! She 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. On September 22, 2023, Angelina had her first U.S. concert that sold out in Portsmouth, New Hampshire. On December 11, 2023, she was asked to come back and perform at the Nobel Peace Prize Concert. She first performed at this prestigious event in 2014 when she was 8. On Feb.29th, 2024, she performed 2 shows on one night at the Westgate Las Vegas Resort and Casino. A film crew followed her and created a documentary of her called Angelina Jordan: 10 Years In The Making which premiered on her official UA-cam channel on March 29th, 2024.
Her fans call her The Barefoot Princess. She always performs with no shoes when she sings. Why? The reason is very special. When she was 6 years old, she was traveling with her family in Iran where she met a poor shoeless 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 sing for the whole world, 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!
Great reaction, you just picked up another subscriber.
Your analysis is spot-on!
Great reaction to our Barefoot Princess! Looking forward to following you down the rabbit hole 🕳 🐇
Angelina Jordan without many explanations is and will be an elite performer of the highest level because she has an unmatched, unique, original talent, AJ she was born to sing, she is a prodigy”, Mexico
Welcome to the world of Angelina the princess of jazz music who does not wear shoes during her performance and for a very good reason... Enjoy...🦶🦶👑🗣🎙🎷
You've only just begun.....
She's been called the girl of a thousand voices and you have just heard one.
Great reaction thank you 😃😃😃 wild bill angel 😇 since 2016
If you are going to follow Angelina career your in for a treat ,she was 13 hear ,she is now 18 ,today she released a cover of If I Were A Boy ,enjoyed your reaction 😀
She sings every song in the first person. She literally lives the song.
Angelina Jordan, 13 here, is now 18 and considered by many as one of the finest vocalists and musical savant around today and for many a generation. I hope you take the deep dive into her work of over 200 covers and 14 originals ..toda6 she released a collaboration with Toby Gad singing his song “If I Were A Boy” I enjoyed your reaction and am surprised so few comments..come on Angels..do your thing )) Subd
Thanks for the information, Kevin! Angelina Jordan's talent is incredible. I’ll defo be diving deeper into her work, especially with so many covers and originals to explore. I appreciate your support and kind words about my reaction. Looking forward to more! 😀
@@voicesavvy A must for anyone new to Angelina Jordan has to be her cover of Screamin J Hawkins “I Put A Spell On You” aged 9 yrs 2 months..note that the performance is HER arrangement in collaboration with the jazz band..I promise you will not believe what you witness..around 11 million views..then perhaps take a look at how she won Norways Got Talent aged 7/8 securing 46% of the total vote singing Billie Holliday, Sonny & Cher and Gershwin! It’s always a good idea to react to individual performance videos with English subtitles rather than the compilation video out there …anyhow, I’m rambling! Here’s the link to IPASOY..ua-cam.com/video/nwFloCPXzCs/v-deo.htmlsi=PNTMYdo46u6ldz_n
When Angelina chooses to cover another artist’s song she sprinkles her angel dust on them and takes ownership of ‘em.
Welcome to the AJ freight train. Once you board, you're on for life.
🥰
A&R (Artists and repertoire)
Rob Christie Republic Records Studio Director at Universal Music Group Manhattan Beach, California is Angelina's A&R person, and he has been working with AJ since she signed with the largest record company in the world at the age of 14, four years ago. Rob was the MC of AJ Christmas Show that aired Dec 23, of 21. AJ’s Christmas Show that live-streamed on Dec 23 of 21 had some of the most important musicians of our time: Frank Sinatra's drummer for 6 years, and sun in-law of the late Henry Mancini, Greg Field has won 9 Grammys, and the bass player, Chuck Berghofer who also played for Sinatra for 6 years, and toured with Barbara Streisand, accompanied AJ on her Christmas Show, and they stated that she had the "storytelling ability of the greats, Streisand, Fitzgerald, Vaughan, including Sinatra, to name a few. The main pianist, a five-time nominated for Grammys, Shelly Berg, stated in all his years working with the greatest vocalist, he had never encountered a talent like AJ. Did I forget to mention Jimmy Z, the famous Sax Player who worked with Rod Steward, Etta James, the Eurythmics, and Doctor Dre, was part of the band for the show? Jimmy stated that AJ was the best he has ever played for. Rob Christie Republic Records Studio Director at Universal Music Group Manhattan Beach, California played the guitar, and was the MC of the show. (I can't list the complete backgrounds on all the band members because it would take several pages to do them justice.) Angelina stated that she would rather perform than take a breath, and she has never been forced to perform, it has been her decision. (CopyRight)
AJ now lives in West Hollywood in Los Angeles, where the record company Republic Records has built a separate music studio for her. She states, "I feel incredibly lucky to have been signed by one of the biggest record companies in the world. I have my own studio where I make my own music. There will also be a lot of concerts in the future because I have released an EP. I will soon go on a world tour and play my songs, (This was stated to TV2 in Norway on Aug. 21, 2023) (CopyRight)
For anybody new to Angelina, who wants to get to know her quickly, I created this playlist with 11 songs from age 7 to 17 (plus a trailer for a documentary describing her career up to 2023): ua-cam.com/play/PLddfS789jBCrSUcMxwCiHeJi8A9zN5xt3.html
1. Gloomy Sunday, her 2013 audition to Norway's Got Talent, when she was 7, which was aired in 2014 and then immediatly went viral.
2. Fly Me to the Moon, live on The View, was her US debut later in 2014, and also went viral. It gathered more than 37 Million views on UA-cam, and many more on Facebook.
3. I Put a Spell On You, the song where Screamin' Jay Hawkins got his nickname from, has 11 Million Views so far. Her cover is closer to his original than most well known covers of it. She was 9 years old here.
4. Feeling Good, in a version sung on TV in 2016 while still being 10 years old, though she already started to perform the song in public about a year earlier.
5. A Million Years Ago, one of 13 Adele covers she did, as an impressive acoustic home studio recording.
6. Shield, from 2018, was the third original she relased that year at 12 years old. It is about the protection and support she gets from her family.
7. Bohemian Rhapsody, in her own stripped down arrangement on AGT the Champions Season 2, wowed everyone, including the group Queen themselves, who twittered "Wow, what a performance of Bohemian Rhapsody!"
8. Million Miles, which she wrote and produced together with Stargate, is about the loss of a close person (her grandfather), and was the first song she released 2020 with Republic Records.
9. 7th Heaven, her 2nd song with RR from 2021, is encouraging people to persue their dreams, like she did.
10. Suspicious Minds, done 2022, is an Elvis cover as unique as Bohemian Rhapsody was.
11. Love Don't Let Me Go, her third release with Republic Records, and the first new song on her recently released EP "Old Enough" of total 6 new original songs.
If you are more interested in her recent performances, here is a playlist containing releases and performances from her last 3 years, including all titels from "Old Enough": ua-cam.com/play/PLddfS789jBCqMgW5xQeK97nibjJCeDme5.html
She cites Billie Holiday as her biggest influence. And she covered more songs from Adele than by any other artist, followed by Amy Winehouse, Elvis, and Sam Smith.
Hello! In this performance I think Angelina was just 13, she turned 14 in a few days. Another brave singer who faces a very well-known song. A few days ago it was Sohiang and today Angelina. Thanks Collena, you always bring us nice performances and I learn from your knowledge. Best wishes 👏👋🎶
i believe this season was filmed several weeks in october in mexico when she was 13. turned 14 jan 6...
@@clydeatrowbridge Thank you for the info. Greetings 👋
Hey Koma! Yes, she is truly a brave singer! I love how she made this song her own. Thanks for the info!
I'm really glad you enjoy the performances and find my insights helpful. 🙏🏾😀
Good info @clydeatrowbridge thanks! 💕🙏🏾
I hope you'll go back and watch her performances on Norway's Got Talent 2014. She was 7 years old and won the show over adults that were vying for that title.
As much as we enjoy her now, I think most of us would love to repeat the journey. I guess we get to do that vicariously through your journey. Each song, cover or original is a treat as one never knows what exactly is coming. Angelina has so many nuances in her voice (Jazz background), she can basically do whatever she wants when covering or creating anew. For a musical tease and a look at who she is I recommend "10 Years in The Making" that was done by her Mother during her Las Vegas concert this year and narrated by Angelina. It will give you some insight as to how she came to be.
ua-cam.com/video/I_59PZXkusc/v-deo.html
Really liked your insight on Angelina. You have no idea what is in store for you. All The Best subbed
Ther are many sides of Angelina's singing. "Unchained Melody" at the Nobel Peace Prize ceremony is another fantastic delicate emotional performance at age 17. At the other end is what we call her "beast mode" which includes "I Put a Spell on you" at age 9 ang "Lovin You" at about 11. For modern sassy pop songs I suggest "Bad Valentine" her original from this year and "Diamond" another original from last year. I hope ypur schedule can handle an addiction. There ate 30 others I would like to recommend,, later. There are also perhaps 20 + stories about how wonderful a person she is. Welcome to Angelina's world.
😊
❤❤❤
*** follow-up ***
So, here is my SNC:
Welcome to the universe of Angelina Jordan and thanks a billion for this nice reaction to her - I'm sure to hear more reactions to her from you! ...because it is...
...too late!
From now on you are assimilated in Angelina's entourage! Resistance is futile...
Even if you won't believe it and if you are in denial about it: Only listen to one song sung by Angelina Jordan and you are hooked on listening her voice! Maybe you aren't aware of it yet... a legend says in rare cases there are humans who can resist.... but I can't believe it 😏
Every time it's a pleasure to watch people reacting to Angelina Jordan - especially when it is the first time - and I hope to see more of your reactions on Angelina Jordan... 😏
So a little Question:
When you react to her cover "I put a spell on you" b/w studio version at 9yo (ua-cam.com/video/nwFloCPXzCs/v-deo.html - btw. like here she made most of her cover arrangements by herself! ..at the beginning she made her last changes for the piano arrangement and gave her "wishes" to the band leader..) it would be nice to react in the same reaction video IN ADVANCE to the original from Screemin' Jay Hawkins (from 1956 - Live: ua-cam.com/video/7kGPhpvqtOc/v-deo.html or another version of it: ua-cam.com/video/orNpH6iyokI/v-deo.html
and here a version from 1990 in Tokyo - I feel, this is like the version Angelina has taken as the model, but I don't know it ( 😏 ): ua-cam.com/video/Bb9ag8bch_U/v-deo.html
or as Audio-Studio-Version:
ua-cam.com/video/82cdnAUvsw8/v-deo.html) that's real fun :-D - and than you will find out that Angelinas cover is a virtuoso tribute to Jay Hawkins :-D
At the beginning you see her something writing on a sheet and a man reading it and smiles than.. in an interview this man, who was the "bandleader", said, this were some "wishes" from Angelina (she was every time very polite he said) for changes of her arrangement for the piano 😃)
The candle you can see at about 0:12 shows a portrait of J. Hawkins - I think her grandma bought it at a concert in Tokyo 😏
At 0:26 you can see the bassist smiling - I can imagine that he smiles about the expectable reactions of the listeners in the moment, when Angelina starts to sing at 0:30 😏
Btw. I read somewhere that her grandma was in person at a concert of SJH in Japan (as she, AJs mother and uncle lived there some years - AJs grandpa is Japanese) and there AJs grandma bought this candle as a souvenir 😏
...I hope this story isn't a HOAX 😃
Maybe you wonder, what videos you should next react to 😏 ...
Furthermore there is a big pile of over 170 videos on UA-cam with Angelina Jordans rehearsals, covers and originals... and each and every one is worth to listen and to react to - even the very early recordings when she was 6 yo!
She is born January 10th 2006 in Oslo/Norge (English is her 3rd language 😏), sung her first notes of a Whitney Houston song with 18 months (link see down), started researching the internet for Jazz 3 yo, entered Norske Talenter (Norwegian Got Talent) 7 yo and won it 8 yo, was on AGT The Champions (recorded Oct. 2019, aired Jan. 2020) where she didn't won - some rumours say because she/her mother didn't sign the contract with the enterprise of Simon Cowell for to stay independent - meanwhile she has signed with Republic Records (musicnorway.no/aktuelt/industry-talk-michael-astar ).
Btw. her full name is Angelina Jordan Astar, but in most occasions she is introduced as Angelina Jordan - she herself answered in the audition of Norske Talenter her name is "Angelina Jordan"… 😏

and songs which are especially written for her:
"Song for A": ua-cam.com/video/Bo3mhxPM-uA/v-deo.html - (there is a discussion if "A" stands for Angelina, Annie - the woman in the lyrics - or both of them 😏 - the lyrics are from a poem from Robert Burns written in 1783 ! )

Besides she is mostly making her very own arrangement there are some very interesting videos of her, where she uses the original arrangement or a big one of someone else like "I Have Nothing" (Whitney Houston Tribute) ua-cam.com/video/eTcvvO6B3Io/v-deo.html or "Fly Me To The Moon" in the arrangement of Quincy Jones (rehearsal with concert mixed audio for his birthday party in the O2 arena): ua-cam.com/video/OMkwoqUNNkE/v-deo.html .
And here is a video where it is explained (with English subtitles) why she performs barefoot: ua-cam.com/video/A-OKLslO74Y/v-deo.html and here an Interview in the Norwegian TV (with English subtitles) from 2015 after she has published her book about the story why she is barefoot when performing: ua-cam.com/video/-cCLDY0CSZ8/v-deo.html
In addition to school she got also vocal training at the Oslo School of Music and Performing Arts after-school program (I read, that this school said, they couldn't teach her more stuff because she has all learned what she could learn in this school ;-) ) - and btw. she plays also grand piano, violin, flute and guitar, make her arrangements herself, wrote a book, sew clothes for herself (partly with art from her grandma like in her first AGT performance and in her music video "Shield").
So, she is a real all-rounder and I think all her fans are eager to see and hear what she is doing next...
All the other things like more recommendation, chronological playlists and so on you can read in the comments of the mega-fans like Fernando F., Rusty (AJ videos in chronological order ua-cam.com/channels/55am_6Y5-Fj4ri8xOInstA.html), Andy Schnell, ...
Thanks a billion again for your reaction! … and see you soon with your next AJ reactions - with greetings from Berlin/Germany 😃 Best regards
Andreas

Welcome to the world of the Barefoot Princess.
This is the most recent (May 31, 2024) Angelina Jordan Single Release (With Songwriter Toby Gad) - If I Were A Boy: ua-cam.com/video/eJr-BfUQ2jE/v-deo.html
Welcome to “The World Of Angelina Jordan Astar” (full name). “The Barefoot Princess With The Velvet Voice And A Mona Lisa Smile”. Born Jan 10, 2006 in Oslo Norway. From her audition on Norway’s Got Talent (2014 - age 7 - Gloomy Sunday "Billy Holiday") through the final on America’s Got Talent The Champions (2020 - age 13 - Goodbye Yellow Brick Road "Sir Elton John") and the 130+ videos in between you will not be disappointed. This includes three originals song: “What Is Life”, “Oslo” and “Shield” Since then she has done many new covers and now her new singles "Million Miles" and “7th Heaven”, along with her movie soundtrack "Mercy" from the motion picture “The Hating Game”. As well as her brilliant version of Elvis’s “Suspicious Mind”. She released her latest album “Old Enough” and it is definitely some of her best stuff. My personal favorite is her cover of Lana Del Rey's "Born To Die". Although the soundtrack is really growing on me.
She got the golden buzzer from heidi
First of all Welcome to AJs world, second thing you will want to do is to make Angelina Jordan her own play list because after hearing on or 2 more performances from her you will be hooked and a hint, he is loved by a LOT or her fans she calls her Angels, since your at age 13 you will want to hear the other 2 songs from 2020 AGT , one of which she recreated Elton John's "YELLOW BRICK ROAD"
Then your will want to go back to her 9 year old self where she made her own Black and White version of Screaming Jay Hawkins "I PUT A SPELL ON YOU"
Then at age 10 she was handed a demo to record which her family never reliesed yet it was "leaked" the song is called "ILL BE HOLDING OUT FOR YOU" ,,,
then to hear her and her guitarist at her house singing some one shot wonders where they pick a song he learns the cords for about 5 minutes and she looks up the words and starts singing, 12 years old singing Rihannas "STAY" pure raw talent!!!!! And there is another 250+ covers and originals from her first studio tryout at age 6 to today's rubbing elbows at 18 with the biggest names in music. Still singing still writing and still performing
What a wonderful reaction! Angelina and Toby Gad just dropped a video of her performing "If I Were A Boy". Toby Gad and BC Jean originally co-wrote this song, with BC being the original performer. Shortly after that Beyonce, in collaboration with Toby and BC, recorded the song. Fast forward to today and Toby has decided to re-record some of his hit songs. He chose Angelina to perform "If I Were a Boy". He is on the piano in this new video. It's quite a stunning performance... ua-cam.com/video/eJr-BfUQ2jE/v-deo.html
Angelina is not just an unbelievable talent, she is an inspiration to all singers or upcoming singers out there.
edit: felt a little fast and not much analysis, for such a big song. Just saying.. Subscribing for more...
Welcome to Angelina's world! She came onto the world stage ten years ago, winning Norway's Got Talent at age eight.

Angelina Jordan and Dimash are the best singers in the world
They are amazing for sure!! 😀💕
A barefoot princess with a hypnotic voice.
Born Angelina Jordan Astar on January 10, 2006 in Oslo, Norway to her Norwegian mother, Sara Astar and her Swedish father, Gerry Christian Slattman.
Angelina started singing around 18 months of age, after listening to Whitney Houston on UA-cam. She quickly became obsessed with listening to music videos and her maternal grandmother, Mery Zamani got Angelina interested in classic jazz.
Mery Zamani is Iranian and was a prodigy as an artist and poet while growing up in Iran. Angelina attended the Oslo Waldorf School and participated in the Oslo School of Music and Performing Arts after-school program, where starting around age 4, she had training in music but no vocal training. Her teachers were smart enough to not attempt to change what she was doing vocally. More recently she along with her grandmother have designed and made the clothing she wears on stage.
Why Angelina always performs barefoot At age 6, while traveling in the Middle East with her mother and grandmother, Angelina noticed a girl around her age standing on the side of the road, asking people to step on her bathroom scale to be weighed in hopes of getting some money. Angelina took off her shoes so as to not get the scale dirty and stepped on the scale many times to make the girl feel better. Angelina befriends the girl who was not wearing shoes and has scars on her feet, and learns she is an orphan. The orphan girl tells Angelina how beautiful she thinks her shoes are. Angelina says her shoes don’t fit her well and she wants to give her shoes to the orphan girl who thanks Angelina for giving her the shoes. Angelina asked the girl what she wanted to be when she grew up and the girl replied, “I want to become a doctor, but that will never happen since I have no parents and I have siblings so I have to do whatever is necessary for us to survive.” Angelina told the girl to never give up on her dreams. The poor girl asked Angelina what she wanted to be when she grew up and Angelina replied that she wanted to sing for the whole world. The poor girl said she would pray every day so Angelina’s dream would come true. Angelina still says she thinks of that homeless girl every day and has always performed barefoot to remind her of all the children who are less fortunate.
At age 9, she became the youngest published author in Norway’s history by writing a book about this encounter in the Middle East. PLEASE PURCHASE Angelina’s book from her merchandise store on her official website, angelinajordanofficial Angelina, at age 6 and 7, did record a few songs in a recording studio at her school, most notably “I Who Have Nothing”, a truly remarkable performance for a 7 year old. At age 7, Angelina’s audition on Norway’s Got Talent, was a cover of Billie Holiday’s “Gloomy Sunday”, a song which was banned by a number of European countries during World War II because authorities worried the song would increase the suicide rate. Truly bizarre that this is the song to launch the career of a child musical prodigy. One of the judges on NGT cried. Angelina had turned 8 years old for her next performance on NGT, covering Billie Holiday’s “I’m a Fool to Want You” singing acapella which was required by NGT unless the singer also played an instrument while singing. This was the Judge’s cut round of the competition and was not performed in front of an audience. In the Semi Final round of NGT, Angelina sang “Bang Bang” which was written by Sonny Bono and was first performed by his wife Cher but is best known sung by Nancy Sinatra. The improvement in each performance is incredible even though there were only a couple months between them. In the Finals, Angelina did a cover of George Gershwin’s, “Summertime” and won the contest, capturing 46% of the votes from the ten finalists. When asked what she would like to do with the prize money she won (500,000 kroner or about $80,000), Angelina replied, “I want to give it to the poor children”. Angelina had become a star in her native Norway and her videos on UA-cam went viral. She gave a few concerts during the summer of 2014 while 8 years old. In December 2014, Angelina realized a life-long desire to sing at the Save the Children's Peace Prize Celebration which is part of the Noble Peace Prize celebration. Angelina’s family took her to United States, Brazil, Germany, France, United Kingdom, Russia, South Korea, Singapore among other corners of Earth, to perform for heads of state and to help raise money for charity. All before Angelina turned 14. At age 9, Angelina recorded a music video covering the 1956 Jay Hawkin’s classic, “I Put a Spell On You”. The video begins by showing Angelina writing her “wishes” for how she wants to perform the song. Angelina has always created her own arrangements for her cover songs. At age 10 and just a week before her 11th birthday, Angelina recorded a demo of “I’m Still Holding Out for You”. Her family never pursued having that recording officially released but someone leaked it on a UA-cam video. Thankfully, everyone involved with that song is now ok with the leaked version. Many angels (fans) believe this is one of Angelina’s best performances. When Angelina was 11, she performed a number of concerts in Norway with a jazz/rock band. Those concerts included up to 14 songs, each remarkably performed. Angelina seems to be at her best when on stage, never nervous, only 100% confident. Also at age 11, Angelina recorded her “It’s Magic” album which has, at times, been in the top 10 best selling jazz albums. On June 27, 2018, at age 12, Jordan performed Frank Sinatra “Fly Me to the Moon” for Quincy Jones in The O2 Arena in London. She has said that was the high point of her young career which was already in it’s 6th year. During 2018, Angelina lost her paternal grandfather, her friend Avicii and one of her idols, Aretha Franklin. She did a moving tribute for each. In 2019, Angelina accepted an invitation to compete in the 2nd season of America’s Got Talent (AGT), The Champions. She had, since age 3, wanted to perform for Simon Cowell and she earned his praise with her genius arrangement of “Bohemian Rhapsody”. The surviving members of Queen loved it so much they put a link to it on their Twitter. Angelina was eliminated after covering Elton John’s “Goodbye Yellow Brick Road”. Angelina’s family refused to sign any agreement with AGT. Angelina, before age 14, had covered more than 130 songs from 80 different artists, spanning at least 8 genres, all of which are available on UA-cam. Angelina has always made changes to each song she covers and often her version is preferred over the original. On UA-cam, search on The Complete Works of Angelina Jordan as Rusty Shackleford has put all songs in one file and has a complete playlist in the description of that video. The pandemic hit shortly after her performances on AGT and likely caused a change of plans by her family, most notably her Uncle Michael who is her manager. Her family agreed to a contract with Republic Records in August 2020. Republic Records declared Angelina Jordan their highest priority new artist. Reportedly her family requested Republic to allow her as normal a childhood as possible and therefore have yet to fully promote her. During the pandemic, Angelina was often seen buying meals for the homeless on the streets of Los Angeles. In November 2020, Angelina released “Million Miles” which she wrote after the passing of her beloved maternal grandfather. She dedicated the song to anyone who has ever lost a loved one. Angelina had previously released, 3 other original songs: “What is Life”, “Oslo” and “Shield” In April 2021, her original “7th Heaven” was released. A jazzy, danceable, inspiring song. Angelina has posted numerous short performances on Tik Tok and Instagram. Angelina had concerts in Norway in July 2022. In December 2022, Angelina performed at the Asian American Awards in Los Angeles. On 2/27/23, Angelina performed at the FIFA Awards ceremony in Paris, France, with a viewing audience in the millions. On May 5th, 2023, Angelina released her original "Love Don't Let Me Go". On July 23th she released her orginal EP “Old Enough”.
Angelina perform Concert at the Music Hall in Portsmouth New Hampshire on Sept 22nd, 2023. It Was a great concert, who was not and could regret it, a big mistake. On 10/27/23 she released her new orginal singiel “Our Time”. In November 2023, she was presented as a debutante at Le Bal des débutantes in Paris. On 12/08/23 she released new Marry Christmas EP “Driving Home for Christmas”. On 12/10/23 she sing in Oslo at the Nobel Peace Prize Celebration - Unchained Melody tribute to 2023 Nobel Peace Prize laureate Iranian human rights activist Narges Mohammadi. On february 29, 2024 she had two concerts in Las Vegas, Nevada,on the Elvis stage.
On May 16, 2024, the first fruits of Angelina's cooperation with Tobi Gad were released. This German composer and record producer based in Los Angeles invited Angeline to an intimate concert at the Hotel Cafe JESSE & FRIENDS, the same one where Adel sang and was discovered. Tobi then took Angelina to London, where she performed His song If I Were A Boy at the London Palladium, and they recorded two versions of the song, Live At Saint James Church, and another studio version illustrated with a film from the streets of London. It seems that Tobi has started cooperation with Angelina and there are several joint songs in the pipeline. At the May concert in Los Angeles, one of them was presented: BAD VALENTINE.
She’s a prodigy. Plain and simple. I like her story as to why she performs barefoot.
Bohemian Rhapsody
The reaction by the public to Angelina Jordan’s rearranged version of Bohemian Rhapsody on AGT in 2020, when she was 13, almost 14, was paramount to an earthquake being felt around the world, this video, and others of this performance have been viewed more that 150 million times. AJ's videos have been viewed over 4 billion times On Facebook, and over 1.8 billion times on UA-cam as of Feb 20, 2023 (This does not count Instagram, or TikTok. We don't just have a STAR in AJ, we have a SUPPER NOVA. Angelina Jordan is taking the universe by storm.) (CopyRight)

Savvy REACTiON GABRiEL HENRiQUE
Please start at the beginning of the AJ legacy, but be warned, once you go down the rabbit hole that is AJ there is no turning back
Hi Savvy, thanks for this professional reaction and analysis...
even if you already got some comments with good information allow me sending you my "standard newbies comment" (SNC) - maybe you can find some for you new information in it ;-)
…
... (because of length limits in YT-comments my SFC follows in the next comment 😏)…
Not to be rude, but how in the world can someone who appears to be quite knowledgeable about music, not have heard of Angelina in the past 10 years?
Besides that, that was a very nice reaction.
Maybe she was just released from the capsule she was frozen in for the past decade. 😅 I'm with you, it is somewhat unbelievable.
Please, dont talk when she sings, you miss a lot. Love from Sweden.
Not bad for a 13 year old.....................
