As far as I'm concerned, the only standard by which we can measure Angelina's immense talent is herself.
Indeed. While at 7 years of age on Norway Got Talent her voice is an immature child’s voice … but the emotions she communicates is not a child’s. Every performance her voice get better better vocal control is that is possible and she still conveys emotions in her songs she performs. These covers and her original songs are uniquely hers, her interpretation. Absolutely amazing and simply beyond.
Excellent comment. And SO true 🔥🔥🔥
Facts
This is from the committee's press release:
The Norwegian Nobel Committee has decided to award the Nobel Peace Prize for 2023 to Narges Mohammadi for her fight against the oppression of women in Iran and her fight to promote human rights and freedom for all. Her brave struggle has come with tremendous personal costs. Altogether, the regime has arrested her 13 times, convicted her five times, and sentenced her to a total of 31 years in prison and 154 lashes. Ms. Mohammadi is still in prison.
What makes this song so meaningful is, Unchained Melody was written about a prisoner longing to be reunited with a loved one. And her husband and children were there to receive the honor on her behalf. It's nice to see a reactor appreciate her performance as it relates to the significance of this event.
In 2014, a little Norwegian girl was named and codified, a national treasure by both the King of Norway and the prime Minister. That same year, she sang for the Nobel peace prize winners all at the age of 8.
In 2023, that same girl, now almost 18 once again graced the Nobel peace prize stage and sang for the recipient once again.
That young girl is none other than Angelina Jordan.
Angelina Jordan made history with this performance.
Angelina is the only solo singer under the age of 18 to have performed twice at the Nobel peace prize concert.
When I learned the story of Narges Mohammadi, this years recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize, and the history of the song "Unchained Melody", I fully understood why Angelina Jordan chose this song.
P.S.: Angelina arranged the music and vocals for this performance. She thanked the director of KORK publicly for allowing her to do this.
Yes, that’s what the barefoot princess does. She pulls at the heartstrings absolutely an angel sent from heaven. I don’t think there’s anyone else that can convey music like she does.
She knows how to hit the cry nerve
I know right!😅🤭
Angelina Jordan's decision to interpret the song like this is majestic, ,all her vocal virtues and her prodigious technique, to give a message of love, hope, faith, part of a woman. who has sacrificed her family, her physical health and her life for a noble and just cause, for equality and the rights of women and children in Iran, sentenced to 10 years in prison, her children present at the ceremony received the award, it was a message from a desperate mother to her children present in the unique voice of Angelina Jordan. México
Beautifully stated.
In all my years on this planet no singer has had the emotional impact on me as this young lady. She could sing the phone book and do it me thinks. Gotta get to Vegas!
This is the most meaningful, most impactful version of this song ever. The way she uses her instrument to drive the emotion...it's unreal!
She does not merely sing the words, she lives them.
Angelina Jordan is not just a singer; she is a storyteller. She does not merely sing the words, she lives them. She transforms herself into the song, embodying its emotions and meanings. She connects with her audience on a deep level, reaching into their hearts and souls with her voice. She has a rare gift of finding the most vulnerable and touching part of each song and delivering it with sincerity and passion. She is a musical artist who makes you feel the song like no one else can. ©
Larry, you got to the essence! I do love your comments. j in nz
Her Goddamn tone is just Unearthly, this young lady is the closest thing ive ever seen to a Goddess
This is the seminal version, she is singing to the teenage children (in the audience) of the award winner who have not seen their mother for many years as she remains in jail in Iran. Angelina is of course 1/4 iranian through her grandmother Mery Zamani .
She is an absolute master.
Narges Mohammadi was this years' recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize. Narges was, at the time of this tribute, on a hunger strike while imprisoned in Iran, for being an activist for women's rights. Her two children spoke on her behalf at this event. Most of the performers were Iranian.
We know Angelina's grandmother, Mery Zamani, grew up in Iran and was a prodigy for painting and poetry. We can imagine the conversations Mery had with Angelina about Narges. This performance had to be extremely meaningful to Angelina and her family. I hope all the angels will spread the story of Narges and her mission, with the hope for change.
In 1954, Alex North was contracted to compose the score for the prison film Unchained (released in 1955). North had a melody he had written in the 1930s and composed and recorded the score when he was asked to write a song based upon the movie's theme. North asked Hy Zaret to write the lyrics. After first refusing, Zaret and North together wrote "Unchained Melody. Zaret refused the producer's request to include the word "unchained" in his lyrics. The song eventually became known as the "Unchained Melody" even though the song does not actually include the word "unchained". Instead, Zaret chose to focus on someone who pines for a lover he has not seen in a "long, lonely time".
"Unchained Melody" comes from the film centered on a man who contemplates either escaping from prison to live life on the run or completing his sentence and returning to his wife and family. So indeed this song fits along with Narges being in prison and her two children, and the rest of the people who embrace freedom, calling for her release.
There is almost nothing as unearthly as Angelina's voice together with an orchestra like KORK! ...just stunning! Thanks for your commentary!
Absolutely correct 👍
Angelina Jordan ASTAR (the name says it all), this young norwegian genius (now 18y) is imo the best singer on the planet! I am 71 y old and have never heard a singer like her in my whole life. Every time she brings tears in my eyes cause it is so beautiful. Her voice touches my heart and cleanses my soul.
I too am 71, never before have I heard anything like this girl.
There are many good singers out there but Angelina tops them all! I'm 73 and have never had a singer give me chills and tears before....EVER.... like Angelina!! Her voice is so unique!
It is very observant of you to notice how she adjusts her treatment of the song to the occasion. I'm reliving vicariously through you the first time I heard her sang this. Angelina is just Angelina.❤❤❤❤❤
WHAT!!!!!! I love it everytime you say it, but Angelina has a way of capturing your full attention and you can't let go. It's mesmerizing and finally a voice that changes people. Let's go Vegas, can't wait to see her in person, live. Oh my ....
GINX, she turned on goddess mode for this event. I watched this live on the Internet when it occurred... People were weeping..
As well they shoud ❤!
Its always about the emotion.Its always how she feels
Thank you for appreciating the context of Angelina's musical choices. Imagine Angelina (17) singing this on behalf of Narges to her twin children, also aged 17, who are in attendance for the tribute to their mother. Also present is Narges husband. The longing to be unchained and able to be with her family. I believe Angelina'a performance will come to be appreciated as one of her best as a youth. I still tear up when I hear this and likely will for ever. Thank you again 🍁
Timeless classical rendition of this iconic song ! Exquisite, eloquent, graceful , reverent, respectful and poised masterful performance by our barefoot princess ! Angelina looks like a goddess from the heavens who has graced this event with her presence ! I think this is her very best live performance to date and we know there will be many more to come no doubt! For your information. Angelina is singing to the recipients of this award on behalf of Narges Mohammadi who was currently imprisoned in Iran for her women's rights activism. She has not seen her husband and twin siblings ( who are Angelina's age) in the audience for over 10 years. Angelina has given the performance that is required in this most prestigious event of the year. Honoring world peace ? The song "Unchained Melody" is originally about an imprisoned person who longs to be outside with his family and friends and Angelina was able to give us the performance that this song was meant to have. The emotional vocals that Angelina is able to generate into the hearts and soul of all her listeners was more than I ever thought possible ! . The Nobel Peace prizeebent is held each year in Oslo, Norway and that is where Angela is from originally. Her grandmother is also Iranian so Angelina has definitely ties to recipients of this award. Most importantly, this is what Angelina is about an artist that is able to bring us joy and happiness and peace wihen she performs . . I can imagine how important this must be to her to perform this wonderful iconic song with the world famous Norwegian orchestra Kork with a live concert audience and a National TV audience of millions. Our barefoot princess has always been a humble, sincere , compassionate and loving soul. This song and performance by Angelina brought me to tears each time I hear it. I am so proud that I'm able to follow this young artist through her journey as she reaches towards stardom in the coming years. I want to thank you personally for continuing your wonderful journey because your UA-cam channel is so important and definitely must watch for me each and every time you post. The angels all over the world love and support you and appreciate what you are doing. Keep posting my friend and sending much love and thanks from Canada always 👍🇨🇦🇨🇦❤️❤️❤️
In this dark world, Angelina, her elegance, her artistry, and her humanity are a bright light that gives me hope and faith that life is worth living.
YES, she "impersonated" Mother Narges Mohammady, and sang to the Twins (17 yo) in the audience. At the end, she greets them , looking at them with her hand over her heart. A beautiful and BIG heart.
Be safe.
Elmar from Germany
She is so humble, did you notice at the very beginning when she was introduced, she leaned forward.
Ms. Jordan's epic performance, made just a little over a month ago. Ms. Angelina love of humanity is on full display and has sets her apart from all other artists of our era. I am humbled to live in these times of Ms. Jordan's artistry. ♾ Rb
I know how you feel! She radiates emotion !
And that emotion is LOVE!
When we use the term, "Wow", to describe her performance we say it in the softest way possible, almost as a whisper, as if we've never heard anything like it before. With Angelina it is a recurring event and she can be accompanied by an orchestra, a band, a piano or a guitar and she draws us into her world and we are in absolute awe of her. Yes, she has been given a gift and she has worked very hard refining what she does. Past and present there are and have been some wonderful artists that we have had the pleasure to listen to and whenever I listen to one of them and enjoy their performance, as soon as I back it up with something Angelina sings with her soulful tones and the element of jazz into her music, I immediately forget the other artist's performance. How can we describe how we feel? Spellbound, 'frozen with a warm glow' inside us and our heart takes command and we listen to every word, every sound, every enchanting tone and we never want it to end. When the song is over and Angelina has, through song, given us joy, hope and most of all her love, we become motionless. The feeling inside us is unlike anything we've ever felt like before in our lives and we are at the top of the mountain. It takes us a few seconds to regain our identity but, even when that occurs we won't forget where we were and, with a soft whisper we utter to ourselves, "wow". only Angelina...
This performance is epic and will be a nexus point in musical history. With this performance Ms. Jordan has solidify her position in the halls of all the great musical legends of musical history. ♾ Rb
This was an absolutely superb reaction to the sublime artistry of this performance which is beyond amazing. Narges Mohammadi, the Nobel Peace Prize Laureate, is in prison in Iran for fighting for women's rights and Angelina chose this song originally written for a 1956 movie about an unjustly imprisoned man longing for his loved ones. Angelina is Narges singing to her husband and twin children, age 17, same as Angelina. I will let others fill in AJ's many connections to the people of Iran including her heritage and the reason she performs barefoot. Thank you for the marvelous reaction.
Angelina keeping it classy.
Well, yes that's how to end on a high note.
Glad you mentioned her hard work. Its been said that she has been practicing 4 to 6 hours a day since she was 5.
AJ is just classic class. She takes every song so seriously, pours her heart into every song.
Angelina was absolutely stunning in this performance ❤
The control that Angelina has over her voice and her ability to shape the tone and sound to paint the exact picture and convey the exact emotion she wants to is absolutely extraordinary. I really enjoyed your reaction and appreciation for what she is able to do. I would like to recommend to you a live performance of "Cry me a River" that she did at the age of 11 that legitimately sounds like a 40 year old jazz diva in an upscale jazz lounge. It is one of my absolute favorite performances of hers. Here is the link: ua-cam.com/video/jV8HIVL2VDE/v-deo.htmlsi=lvcLLcZCZh_vexB1. It is the performance with a small jazz band and not the larger military band.
Yep Phil, one of my absolute favorites from her. An 11 yo jazz diva extraordinaire!!!
Yeah that part gets me every time, the vibrato and trueness of the notes so beautiful.
Thanks for this superb reaction Ginx. AJ knows KORK very well because they have performed together over many different songs through the years. Our barefoot princess is supremely comfortable singing with this orchestra. What a great choice of song and singer for the Nobel Peace Prize.
She has the same effect on me. Something divine, something angelic, she just has this gift that reaches into your soul like no other singer can do. She's here to heal the world, one heart at a time.
The parallels to Ms. Callas are uncanny. However in Ms. Jordan's case she is the true unicorn. No one in the musical world that has graced this world, has effected so many and compelled them to be better to themselves and others, just by the force of being. A truly historical moment in musical history. ♾ Rb
Phenomenal and magical! 🤯👣🔥🧡🙌❣️
Great reaction Gina. Angelina sings to Narges' Children " l'll be coming home, wait for me". As far as words, we all have our moments of dumb foundedness.
Great reaction......thank you for recognizing and sharing the work of this amazing artist and even more impressive human being....
What she does is pure WOW!
I’ve watched this a couple hundred times already and my glasses get moved by my fingers rubbing my eyes every time.
Exceptional performance and a fantastic reaction. Thanks
For me this is by far the most impressive rendition of "Unchained Melody" ever. And not because it is performed by a young lady, but no one has ever done it this more beautiful and tasteful. I follow Angelina since about two years now and she keeps on to surprise. A nice way to get more information about her start is watching a British video: "Born to sing, Angelina Jordan the early years (2006-2014)". This is the link: ua-cam.com/video/jE6x9V8Cnyw/v-deo.htmlsi=4M22uvywemU5eoRR . And when you like to react on a belting Angelina: at age 12 she performed "It's a mans world" life, with the Norwegian army staff brassband. It is a amateur recording but impressive anyway. Lots of these "informal" UA-cam videos you can find on the Boris Palenovski channel (which is very connected with Angelina Jordan). By the way: this orchestra KORK from Oslo (Norway) has worked several times with Angelina since she was a kid so they know each other very well. And so has the Brassband from the Norwegian Army: they have played a lot of music for and with Angelina when she lived in Oslo: Again: on the UA-cam channel I mentioned earlier you can find videos of that. This young gifted woman is a treasure for music, I think.
I think your the only reactir that actually did your research.Angelinas grandmother is from Iran
I loved watching this ❤ AJ for the next Elvis
Magnificent in it’s elegance and sheer beauty.
This is why Angelina is such an outstanding human being in every way.
Is it me, or does Angelina look like some CELESTIAL BEING?
Her appearance seems Otherworldly.
Great reaction GINX...Being at a loss for words is the reason Angels love to follow new reactors.
It feels like Angelina is singing a message from the imprisoned mother to her children and the world ❤️ Like Angelina has said.... Love is everything ❤️
We are all at a loss for words when it is describing how AJ affects us.
Angelina Jordan's abilities transcend the conventional lexicon, her vocal prowess and musical versatility painting a vivid tableau of emotive storytelling. A prodigy who won Norway's Got Talent at the tender age of 8, Angelina's voice carries a hauntingly beautiful quality that resonates with the soulful depths of jazz, a genre that deeply influences her style. Her multilingual performances in English, Norwegian, Spanish, and Japanese showcase a remarkable ability to connect with a global audience, while her philanthropic endeavors reveal a heart as expansive as her vocal range. With a repertoire that includes viral renditions of classics like "Gloomy Sunday" and original singles such as "Million Miles," Angelina continues to enchant audiences worldwide, her music a testament to her extraordinary talent.
I absolutely loved your reaction, thank you! ❤❤❤
You are a great reactor, with integrity, empathy and knowledge. I believe in every word you say. Keep them coming..🥰
Thank you so very much
Love your reactions!!! The best!!!!
Thank you!! ☺️
Ginx, To me this is the embodiment of Divine Grace in sound. My only analogy, would be, to the likes of Maria Callas, The stature, the elegance, the enrapturing beauty. We all are blessed with the privilege of witnessing this history of Ms. Jordan's transformative artistry. ♾ Rb
What a beautiful reaction to a beautiful performance ❤ Angelina's ability to arrange and perform so delicately with a full orchestra no less confirms what I have always thought about her. She doesnt do covers, she only does tributes, and treats them with love and respect. She has two other performances with the Kork orchestra which are also amazing.
Her 10 yr old Version of this song is also one of my Favorites, you should definitely do a Reaction of that one, different Arrangement, but just as jaw dropping 😊
I love that one ❤
She was 9 and yes, it's also a superb version.
My nf friend! Miss GINA!! Thanks for the reply on the nf video, it’s a rarity these days. Sooo our girl AJ, man do you nail it when you said elegant. Because ma’am if I had 2 words in my vocabulary to describe her it would be elegantly mesmerizing!! Look I’m just going to say it and I don’t tell hardly anyone about me but I’m saying it to make a point. I’m 46 married 21 years and have a 4 year old son, and a 15 year old daughter, and I haven’t seen them in a year and a half now because of a car accident and I’ve been bedridden so in order for life to continue after the loss of a job and house and all the things people work for in life they had to move in with relatives to retain location for my wife’s job and children’s school. But I said all that to say this miss Gina I found AJ’s music in that hospital bed and nf’s music found me in that bed and I’ve listened to over 209 AJ’s songs and I actually took the nf journey while lying in that hospital bed after 3 surgeries and 2 blood transfusions I had tons of time on my hands. So I still spend time everyday with both artists I nightcap with AJ every evening because she’s comforting after nf during the day. Because he made me look at life through a different perspective, granted what I’m going through is life altering but his music found me and woke me up to a tough evaluation of myself and what is important to me in this life ma’am! Again, sorry for the long comment and getting personal but on a personal note 😂 my phone and these videos are all I have to pass my days and I love the fact that you explain your craft and get excited and the sound designs. So that even an ignorant man like myself that doesn’t understand can actually understand and your not dorky by any means miss Gina I’ve been following your channel now over a month. Your very intelligent, honest, outspoken, and pretty. Sorry about the pretty comment I’m sure it’s goi to invoke some type of response from society today that feelings are going to be hurt that a man can’t give a woman a compliment because he’s married is idiotic in my opinion. But other than all that my favorite part of your channel…. The flannel shirts, I seriously keep coming back for the flannel, other than Mr Ballens channel nobody is doing flannel!!!
Another “Angel” wrote recently that for Angelina it’s all about the song and not about herself… so many of the big stars could learn from that!
Out of the hundreds of reactors I have watched on AJ, you have now reached among my Top-5 😊. Thank you!
Oh my goodness, thank you ☺️
@@ginxreactssame.
Love your commentary. She is an Angel. 78 years old and I still get chills everytime I hear her sing.
AJ sang at the TV-Talk-Show "Ann Lindmo", when she was 9 years old. After she sang, Mrs. Lindmo talked with her about the book, AJ had published "Between Two Hearts". AJ read a small part from her diary, that is the source for this book. Here is the interview, at the end you can click on the picture of AJ singing. ua-cam.com/video/-cCLDY0CSZ8/v-deo.html
EfG
Hi Elmar. I knew someone would link the Lindmo interview. GINX, this interview is well worth a view. It displays nine year old, and six year old Angelina's intelligence, her compassion, her strong character and her humbleness. She is one of a kind.
Angelina inspires me to do what I can to help make the world a better place, so I am asking all angels and others to spread the story of Narges Mohammadi. Angelina was recorded here in December 2023 at the Nobel Peace prize ceremony in Oslo Norway, performing this beautiful version of Unchained Melody. She paid tribute to Narges, who is currently on a hunger strike while imprisoned in Iran, for being an activist for women's rights. Her two twin children, who are 17, spoke on her behalf at this event. The more people who are aware and call for change, the more likely the leaders of Iran will set her free. Acts of kindness are inspirational, as Angelina always reminds us. We angels, and all others must honor Angelina, and those who represent our values, by doing all we can to help, and be kind to others. Even the smallest gestures can make a difference.
If you have not already done so, please provide artist links to the official channels, social media and even links to Spotify and iTunes, as many reactors have done. Most importantly, encourage your viewers to use those links the same way as you do for your own channel. That will help ensure her success and spreading peace and love to the world.
I love the way Ms. Jordan can transport us to the remembrances of the past, but let's not forget that this young living legend is a contemporary, a masterclass artist that is continuing to experiment with tone and technique to create a newness in music, that will dominate world music for decades to come. It will be Ms. Jordan's creativity in lyricism and musicality, that will captivate the world in the coming years, to make her name synonymous with greatness. ♾ Rb
This performance should be out there for the whole world to see, an absolute masterpiece. Thank you for your beautiful reaction. I’ve watched this loads of times but still tear up every time!
Absolutely wonderful performance from the Queen of jazz and soul, I’m sure Angelina is so proud and privileged to be performing at this Noble peace event, and especially with the Norwegian Kork orchestra, Not the first time Angelina has performed at a the Noble peace event,the last time was in 2014 when she was 8 -9 years old, Angelina sang (What A wonderful world), Angelina has collaborated with the Norwegian Kork orchestra on several occasions, once with her arrangement of (Back To Black ) and before with her arrangement of ( Summertime) Angelina is so amazingly talented and a beautiful soul, can’t wait to see her live in Las Vegas on the 29th February, great reaction thanks!
The Queen of song live on stage !!!
Awesome reaction, Angelina is so BEAUTIFUL inside and out......
Great reaction....really enjoy the way Angelina has drawn you in with her unbelievable talent.....also spot on about the majesty of this performance and the respect for the occassion....Angelina's genius is encapsulated here. Keep up the good work. Respect from Ireland 🇮🇪
Follow your instincts. No need to record your reaction to oother versions. Just enjoy them. Lots more you havent experienced yet. How about "I'd Rather go Blind" where she's so excited by a new, gifted microphone that she uses it backward. That's something a sound engineer could appreciate.
Elegant and respectful are two of the best words I've heard describing this touching, gorgeous performance for a very moving cause. I think Angelina has immense creativity, and her arrangement of the song for this occasion is full of surprises and feeling. Thanks for a great reaction to a great performance.
Best reaction to this I've seen;) You got it and get it;)
Thank you ☺️
ANGELINA is special, she has been dotated with a special talent, she feels it and vibrate with it, send it with her voice and makes us to feel like her. Magnificent!!! ❤
Angelina Jordan is a national treasure of Norway, and because of that she has had the opportunity to perform with the very top musicians in Norway. This is the National Radio orchestra, and she made an album, “It’s Magic” with the Norwegian Military Band, that still can be found in the top 100 Jazz Albums on iTunes, etc., she also has performed for many charities raising millions. This is normal, not an aberration!
This performance was not intended to entertain, it was intended to raise awareness for the Nobel laureate!
Of all the great singers I have ever heard, Angelina Jordan is my favorite of all time. I thank the Lord God for her, and that I have been able to experience her journey and growth since her childhood. She has made it okay for grown men to cry. I love her. There, I said it.
unabashed reaction, well done!
Hi Ginx. I'm Danilo an Angel from Rome Italy and a sub. Don't worry, we're all at loss for words. Her hums are more poignant than anybody else's voice. The choices She makes, the riffs and runs She decides to do, often on the spur of the moment, the control and all Her numberless qualities are what sets Her apart from anybody else. She is in a class of Her own. As I said to other reactors before you, the difference is that She thinks of things that none of the other singers, or any of us for that matter, can even fathom. That's, for me, the mark of Her Genius. 👍👏👋❤️
Well.. you know GINX, you are becoming my favorite reactor to our angel Angelina..you combine professionalism and emotion in a so great way..congrats to you…Thanks for the reaction to our angel Angelina..she’s simply the best..👍👏
No one does it like AJ......She's writing her own book and borrowing a page from no one, she's her own genre.
BTW....you're not dorky, I'd hang with you.
Angelina is the only artist I know that defies our language...we use every combination of words to express the magic of her abilities and resulting emotions she stirs in us....what a gift!! ...what a thrillingly beautiful voice, what a heart..what a treasure...what an Angel!!
PEACE!
I’ve been watching reactors struggle to find enough words to explain Angelina for years now. My word for her is “beyond”. Beyond all the adjectives.
I could watch your Angelina reactions all day long. Please keep them coming. Angelina sang this for us in New Hampshire and brought the roof down. Everyone was slobbering all over themselves. We couldn't help it. It was like we left our bodies for five minutes. That night was surreal. After two hours of singing her ass off, she did "I have nothing " and completely killed it. I couldn't believe she had the stamina to do it. She's a miracle. And on top of it all she's a total sweetheart. You just want to grab her and run off with her.
Thanks for the wonderful reaction. 👍♥️
#AngelinaJordan
Hi, tears in the eyes and goosebumps, that's completely normal, I feel like that all the time. She has something in her voice that you can't describe, but these emotions hit you in your heart and soul and the effect is, I want to become a better person and she fills me with peace. She is also very humble and she has a very big heart. You can see it in her commitment to humanitarian and social work. She has already collected millions for children - she donated all of her winnings from Norway's Got Talent. We Angels (that's what she calls her fans) love her
God created Angelina to sing for him angelic. ❤
Her voice is fully another instrument in the KORK orchestra. Simply stunning. Great reaction. Thanks
She is uniquely incomparable.
Angelina once said she needs to sing like she needs to breathe. So effortless and so humble. Thanks again for a great reaction.
"All the feels..." Yes, that's Angelina for you. She has this unique ability to reach deep into your soul, pull it out through your ears, and leave you a quivering, weeping mess. Then, especially in some of her younger videos, she give a big smile and waves goodbye. Sometimes I find myself with tears on my face and I can't even explain why!
You said absolutely all the words I was going to say. With that beautiful white gown she's so classy and looks like the angel that she is! Thanks for a great reaction!
Such a gracious, compassionate, loving, thoughtful, elegant professional wrapped in this beautiful young lady. Her focus is always on the intent for the song and never on herself.
When we listen to Angelina in this kind of song, we are surprised, then we are surprised again, then we are surprised again, nothing can stop that, each time is an history repeating ❤❤❤
Yes, I always am in awe when I listen to Angelina. She is a class on her own and this song is proof of that. I have the feeling in her imagination she sings it during this event, as if she is Narges Mohammadi who got this Nobel Peace Prize. No, I do not believe Angelina is acting but it has all to do with that special gift Angelina has had from her very start as a singer when she was little: she is able to convey very strong emotions to other people with only her voice and her peaceful presence (I don't know how to put it in other words). And in addition to that comes her musical feeling: Every instrument we hear, including her own voice, has it's place in the entire piece of music. I mean, there is not a single moment where she dominates the orchestra with her voice. All is so, so carefully balanced.
LOVE your reactions Gina. I have been on the music scene for 40 years, listened to hundreds of artist and Angelina Jordan is the only one that either makes me shed a tear or chokes me up every time I watch her sing. The only other singers that comes close to tearing me up on some of their songs is my sister Charmain Heyliger, especially her #1 hit ( Love Is The Key ) and some of Karen Carpenter's awesome songs.
Angelina literally puts a spell on you. Her soothing voice and projected emotions unlocks the sensitive side of your sole, exposing you to another dimension of peaceful blissfulness. Angelina, the goosebump causing, barefoot Princess, is my go to de-stressor after a long stressful day. Have a blessed day Gina ☮
She is just the best ever.
If you had to describe Angelina in just one word it would be. ELEGANT !!!!!
With Angelina it’s always about the song and the performance, never about herself. To think of the garbage they award Grammys for and this performance goes unnoticed is disgusting. Her arrangement, little if any practice with an orchestra par excellence and live with no room for error. Perfectly entwined with Kork. Loved your reaction and appreciation of her performance.
On the rehearsal video for this performance, AJ song the same ending and then walked over to her mother, who was recording, and asked her if she liked the ending. I posted a comment; If you are asking me if I liked it, I thought it was HEAVENLY! When you hear AJ perform the same song in different venues, you will find they are a little different each time, but always much better than anyone else on earth.
Lovely watching your emotional reaction it really does get you in my opinion the best version ever of this song it's just sublime gets me teared up all the time ❤
She is just the best performer. She brings tears to my eyes.
I have seen it mentioned elsewhere, but AJ emphasizes the song, not herself. She is very respectful to the original. Her voice is a perfect instrument tuned to the orchestra.
She could very well have gone all out belting. Instead, she reins it in, and builds even more feeling.The total result is even better because of it.
