Angelina can hear the notes in her head which she then reproduces with your voice she's probably hearing the notes a little bit of ahead of time and her head so she knows exactly what to sing next
Angelina is 8 years old here. Yes, and Happy 15th Birthday today, January 10, 2021, to you Angie. I wish you the best, and I know this is your year to really shine. I hope you receive everything you deserve as an artist, and a loving daughter, granddaughter, sister, niece and cousin. You deserve the rewards for all the years you have brought joy, assistance, and inspiration to others less fortunate, and for the musical magic you have given us all. Again, Happy Birthday Angie!
Everything she does is her call. I think it's often overlooked by most reactors who only tend to concentrate on the voice, but she is a unique girl even without the voice. Her not wearing shoes, her ability to emphasise different parts of the song and the thing that is most often overlooked she's not singing in her own language. She is not just one in a million, she's one in 8 billion.
With thanks to her grandmother, Angelina grew up listening to many jazz greats among which are Billie Holiday, Dinah Washington, Nina Simone, Louis Armstrong, Frank Sinatra and, like this song demonstrates, Etta James. She arranges all her own music, even changing some of the lyrics to covers she's done to make them more "age appropriate" for her age when she recorded them. Phenomenal talent, for sure!
There is another video of Angelina rehearsing this song at age 7 but for this performance she is around her 9th birthday. Angelina was still suffering from a cold after performing at the outdoor ceremony for the Nobel Peace Prize. This performance was to benefit a charity so of course there was no chance she wouldn't sing. Angelina works her magic by using her congestion to add something extra to this Etta James classic. Angelina always picks the songs she performs. After singing Gloomy Sunday, there was a man congratulating Jordan backstage and said, no other kids liked jazz and she sings jazz like a God. There is a video showing Angie going to the Jazz Cafe in Oslo to listen to jazz for countless hours.
Angelina discovered jazz by listening to her grandma Mery's jazz collection. She then went to UA-cam, and looked up the names she had taken off grandma's albums for more. She was a regular weekend visitor to a local Oslo Jazz cafe, where she browsed through jazz albums and CD's and listened for more. Jazz is in her veins! Angelina said, “I have to say if it wasn’t for the unconditional love that came from Billie Holiday’s legendary music, there would not be Angelina Jordan today. I am very blessed today that her music found me very early.” The cafe is in this video starting at at 4 min 23 sec ua-cam.com/video/5A_N1i00gFs/v-deo.html
CaSuaL, she is older than 7 here, I think she's either almost 9 or just turned 9. Angelina chooses all the music she sings & does all her own arrangements. I think "Team Angelina" is Mom (Sara Astar) who is the CEO with veto power over all. Angelina does everything involving the music. Business Manager & Uncle (Michael Astar) does legal, promotion & scheduling. Grandma (Mery Zamini) is the Artistic Consultant/Mentor in charge of hair, wardrobe, video production & documentation. Little sister (Juliette Astar) is the backup dancer & mascot. Happy 15th Birthday Angie.
G&T Reactions. Her Grandmother is very much into jazz. So as a very young child, Angelina heard all these songs on a regular basis. This helped Angelina develop her unique (at such a young age) singing style. Angelina is totally in charge of what she sings and does all her own arrangements. She is also a very good listener to others' suggestions and works well with the musicians she works with... they affectionally call her the 'boss'. Her parents only put their foot down, when they think the lyrics of a song are totally inappropriate for a girl of such a young age to sing. Hence the change in lyrics of the songs 'Back to Black' and 'Valerie'. In fact, she rewrote Back to Black on her way to do the recording; that is why you see her reading the lyrics in the video of the reaction you did recently.
Angelena never fails to surprise us with her beautiful exquisite perfect voice. The more you hear Angelina you would always be surprised thinking it’s not possible to be surprised again but we always are. Your reaction was great as usual. Tha
I am happy to see you again with a fantastic reaction with Angelina, on this day of her birthday, G&T. With "At Last" of Etta James, Angelina, at 8 years of age (4 weeks before her 9 birthday), makes one of her most beautiful interpretations, which is absolutely not out of place with the original, on the contrary, so full of emotion and vocal warmth to leave completely amazed and enraptured. When she plays those songs at that age, she absolutely steals your heart, for the admiration and the tenderness she brings to life within you. Furthermore, the scenography, with those large images, places her so small in the focal center and helps wonderfully to believe that she floats on her voice. With Angelina there is the emotion, the sensibility and the infinite pleasure of listening to her slowdowns of the song. This is a recording made at a fundraising charity gala, Angelina's favorite occasions for her performances. ❤️ ❤️ As if something changed ... she was also unwell ❤️😮 I think that the effect that Angelina manages to give to the songs she sings is very much related to why she chooses one song over another. She has to feel in tune not only with the music, but especially with the lyrics and I think this is one of the main reasons, she tells the story that the song contains, in hers own way splendid. As an actor who identifies with the character he is playing, instead she impersonates the song. 🤗
As a musician myself and lead singer I will listen to a song a few times before I perform it live I am assuming that Angelina does the same thing but I wasn't doing that at 8 years old I was playing with model airplanes and eight year old girls should not be able to sing like this excuse me while I go bang my head against the wall
I started doing exactly that when I first started listening to Angelina, and now all my friends keep asking me how I got such an interesting "cratered" texture on all my walls. (Many of them have even asked for the name of my interior designer.) Lol.
Hi Casual, Great reaction & Angie was 8 here getting over a cold too. Just think of it she also did the arrangement too. (as her mom says) Angie picks all the songs herself & does the arrangements too etc etc. Thank you for doing a reaction on her b-day today. (Happy 15th Birthday Angie) 1-10-21 t
Angelina was very ill, but since the concert was for a children’s charity, like the little trooper she is, she came to sing. That’s why her voice is slightly hoarse and nasal. She still gave a stunning interpretation, and as usual made it her own.
Really is mind blowing so amazing such gorgeous voice.. happy birthday ..Hope you have a special day ..love your reaction thanku so much love and god bless x
Yes, she does it personally, the arrangement and SHE tells her musicians how she wants and as you can see they are all overwhelmed by her. Thank you for you awesome reaction🥰
Watch her video when she was a year and a half old singing Whitney! You might get the child version! Thanks for the good reactions. Hang in there and welcome to the rabbit hole.
Her grandmother is the one who has the greatest influence on her musically. Of course she has her uncle and her mother who go with her everywhere. Her father is less fond of being exposed. (He is looking for oil or something in this field)
The reason she sounded a little off is because she was still getting over a cold, which is probably why she didn't look as happy with her performance as normal afterwards. Still an incredible performance. And what integrity to go out on stage and perform knowing you won't sound 100%!
Have you seen her Norway's Got Talent performances yet G &T Reactions - I think they will blow your mind -☺ / Love your reactions by the way super real and you really seem to feel the music - Keep up the great work I look forward to and watch for your videos...
she was sick here... stuffed up head or something for this and michael jackson song, I;LL BE THEEW, too, I believe... I think it did affect her hearing of herself. This is probably the WORST you will ever hear AJA perform.
Yeah, that's true, she was ill and they said that she didn't have to perform but she insisted on performing because it was for an important cause. Wow. And let's be honest Angelinas 7 out of 10 is everyone else's best day ever 🤷♂️😁
Great reaction to Angelina's slaying this song on stage in front of a big audience.. Please react to ua-cam.com/video/hQIuzhNbzNI/v-deo.html which is her first rehearsal with musicians for this song At Last. from the very beginning the she confidently mastered this song!
She is a true jazz singer. I just love her.
Angelina's mother said in an interview "Only Angelina chooses the songs she sings and in the end she only sings according to her imagination." ✌️😷✌️
Great insight from Mom
Grandmother influence. She gave Angelina jazz, so thank you so very much grandma.
It's like being transported to the 40's as we listen to a premiere jazz singer
that just sings her way into our souls.
Angelina feels right at home on stage in front of thousands.
She pics the songs her self as far as I know. And she understands.
She's a superstar she will not stop that's a great thing wild bill 🙂
Angelina can hear the notes in her head which she then reproduces with your voice she's probably hearing the notes a little bit of ahead of time and her head so she knows exactly what to sing next

Happy Birthday, my favorite singer! Thumbs up sir.

Angelina is ultra incredible , because she picks the songs to sing that speak to her heart this makes her utterly unbelievable.
With thanks to her grandmother, Angelina grew up listening to many jazz greats among which are Billie Holiday, Dinah Washington, Nina Simone, Louis Armstrong, Frank Sinatra and, like this song demonstrates, Etta James. She arranges all her own music, even changing some of the lyrics to covers she's done to make them more "age appropriate" for her age when she recorded them. Phenomenal talent, for sure!
She picks the 60 th song perfect for her voice

My doctor told me to listen to less Angelina. Her "fry" is so amazing, my cholesterol numbers are through the roof!
#MoreThanMusic
Ha!

Love this version she does of this song. Such a talented child.
Amen
With Angelina’s ability to completely draw me in I need a handkerchief after smashing my face against my monitor.

G&T,
I love when you have Etta James just before AJs cover, to contrast, (as with “Organic”). 🌺

Yes she is a wonderful Storyteller, she is able to do a musical when she gets older that beat our hearts. Look at her book, she wrote at 9y 🤗
Angelina Jordan, the barefoot angel, young girl with an old soul.
As a musician myself and lead singer I will listen to a song a few times before I perform it live I am assuming that Angelina does the same thing but I wasn't doing that at 8 years old I was playing with model airplanes and eight year old girls should not be able to sing like this excuse me while I go bang my head against the wall

Angelina was very ill, but since the concert was for a children’s charity, like the little trooper she is, she came to sing. That’s why her voice is slightly hoarse and nasal. She still gave a stunning interpretation, and as usual made it her own.

I think she was around 9-10 here. Great reaction.
The reason she sounded a little off is because she was still getting over a cold, which is probably why she didn't look as happy with her performance as normal afterwards. Still an incredible performance. And what integrity to go out on stage and perform knowing you won't sound 100%!
Her Grandmother's music.
