12 years old. Singing an incredibly hard song in her third language, without having the lyrics memorized, and she just KILLS it! She is 13 now and has just appeared on America's Got Talent:Champions (She won Norways Got Talent in 2014 at age 7). Her version of the ballad part of Bohemian Rhapsody (Nothing Really Matters) won her a golden Buzzer. I've been telling every one who would listen about Angelina for a couple of years now!
Angelina Jordan (born Angelina Jordan. Astar on 10 January 2006) is a Norwegian child singer, of Iranian ancestry, whose audition for the 2014 season of Norway's Got Talent at the age of seven, singing "Gloomy Sunday" in the style of Billie Holiday, became a viral video online, and led to worldwide press coverage.[1][2] She went on to win the competition (at eight) with her performance of George Gershwin's "Summertime". Since then she has worked to raise millions of dollars on behalf of environmental causes and children's charities around the world. She always performs barefoot, after befriending a young shoeless girl while traveling when she was six years old. Jordan wrote a book about the experience and became the youngest published author in Norway. After Jordan's performances of two Billie Holiday songs, "Gloomy Sunday" and "I'm a Fool to Want You", on Norway's Got Talent, as well as "Fly Me to the Moon" on a TV talk show, all went viral online in March 2014, she was featured in Time,[1] Daily Mirror,[2] People,[5] and other news outlets around the world.[6] She continued in the competition singing Nancy Sinatra's version of "Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down)" live in the semifinals,[7] and won with her performance of George Gershwin's "Summertime", in the style of Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong's 1958 recording of the song. In September 2014, she performed "Fly Me to the Moon" on the US television show The View,[8] bringing her wider fame in the United States. She also performed on several TV 2 programs in Norway over the next few years, including multiple appearances on Allsang på Grensen (Singalong at the Border, referring to the border fortress of Fredriksten where outdoor concerts are held) and on TV4 in Sweden. Jordan had a small guest role in the final episode of the Netflix series Lilyhammer, playing a girl who sings in a bar.[9] In December 2014, she realized a personal ambition by performing for Peace Prize recipients Malala Yousafzai and Kailash Satyarthi at the Nobel Peace Prize Concert.[10] Jordan's recording debut, the three-song maxi-single My Christmas, was released in December 2014.[11] To support the release, Jordan performed the songs on multiple TV shows, including an appearance on Christmas Day. 2015-2019: UA-cam channels, The EP, It's Magic Edit In 2015, Jordan began recording music that would eventually be collected on the six-song Angelina Jordan - The EP, released on 27 November 2017.[12] Many of the tracks were posted to her official UA-cam channel[13] well in advance of the EP release, in the form of music videos and lyric videos. These included her covers of Screamin' Jay Hawkins' "I Put a Spell on You", the music video for which was directed by Per Heimly, and Amy Winehouse's "Back to Black", in which Jordan sang her own original lyrics. These two music videos became the most popular videos on her official UA-cam channel, surpassing 5 million views each by 2020. In 2017, she created a second UA-cam channel specifically to present performances of cover songs.[14] In November 2015, Jordan published the book Mellom to hjerter (Between Two Hearts), illustrated by her grandmother, Iranian artist Mery Zamani.[15] The book tells the story of her meeting a poor motherless girl in Asia who has no shoes. After a long conversation in which they discuss their dreams in life, she gives the girl her shoes and the girl promises to pray for Jordan to fulfill her dream to become a successful singer. According to Jordan the book is based on a real incident which she cites as the reason for always performing barefoot.[16] In April 2016, Jordan performed "Fly Me to the Moon" on the first season of the noncompetitive children's talent show Little Big Shots.[17] A year later she performed "What a Difference a Day Makes" on the UK version of the show. She also performed "I Put a Spell on You" on the German edition of the show, Little Big Stars, in 2017. In December 2016, she performed on Alan Walker is Heading Home, a live concert broadcast from Bergen, Norway, where she sang Walker's songs "Sing Me to Sleep" and "Faded".[18] On 15 June 2018, a full album of recordings with Staff Band of the Norwegian Armed Forces (Forsvarets stabsmusikkorps), called It's Magic, was released.[19] The next day, Jordan and the band performed the full album live in a concert attended by Norway's Prime Minister. On 27 June 2018, Jordan performed "Fly Me to the Moon" for Quincy Jones in The O2 Arena in London, as part of his 85th birthday celebration, and also joined with other singers to perform "Man in the Mirror" to close the show.[20][21] 2019-2020: America's Got Talent, "Bohemian Rhapsody", and Republic Records Edit In 2019, Jordan performed for former president Barack Obama and other public figures at the Brilliant Minds conference in Stockholm. In October 2019, she competed in the second season of America's Got Talent: The Champions, which was aired in January and February 2020.[22] Her first appearance on the show, singing an original arrangement of Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody", received a "golden buzzer" from judge Heidi Klum (meaning that Jordan would pass directly into the finals). As with her Norway's Got Talent audition six years earlier, a video of Jordan's performance began to go viral on UA-cam, quickly reaching 10 million views.[23] The performance also garnered praise from Queen's official Twitter account.[24] Shortly afterwards, the video was taken down[23] and Jordan released a studio version of the same arrangement under her own copyright.[25] Jordan's second performance (in the finals), a similarly reworked "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road" based largely on a version by Sara Bareilles, was also well received, but she was not among the top 5 acts. In August 2020, Jordan's manager (her uncle, Michael Astar) announced that she had signed with Republic Records.[3] Her first single on the label, "Million Miles", was released on 6 November 2020, on all major digital platforms.[4] An official lyric video was posted to her official UA-cam channel the same day.[26] The track was produced by the Norwegian duo Stargate, who also co-wrote the song with Jordan.[27] She has since released two additional music videos for the song: one showing her singing the song "live" in a recording studio, the other an "official music video" featuring her younger sister.[28][29] Personal life Edit Jordan was born in Oslo, Norway, and has lived for extended periods both there and in Los Angeles.

"I put a spell on you" is stunning. She won Norway Got Talent by singing Jazz legendary oldies at 7 years old! Those performances were incredible. Especially since she sang the songs only phonetically. She's an old soul in a young girl's body.
Chris, Angelina has actually been singing since she was one and a half! She has many videos out there and there are only a few that aren't superior, only because of the sound quality. She sings live in concert, in studio , outdoors and in her living room. Many of her videos are arranged ,edited,produced and recorded by her ! She also has three original songs , Shield- What is Life and Oslo. Angelina makes every cover her own and doesn't ever try to sound like anybody but herself! She just turned 13 in January and her parents are very supportive but keep her grounded and humble, they insist that her education is the most important thing for her right now. She gets hundreds of requests to do appearances and her parents reject about 90 percent of them right now! I agree with the people below about every suggestion for you to react to, however if you really want to see her range watch I Put a Spell on you and then watch her cover of Etta James Every Time we say Goodbye! I have heard many artists cover I Put a Spell on you including Beth Hart, Nina Simone even the original by Screamin Jay Hawkins and none of them even come close to what she does with this song it's Grammy worthy in my opinion! She doesn't need me to sell her as she is quite capable of that herself! Welcome to Angelina's world! Check out more of her, you won't regret it!
Angelina Jordan is mind blowing. Who is the youngest solo artist to go Platinum in music history? Hint she is also from AGT! ua-cam.com/video/0qGn641IG-Y/v-deo.html.
Welcome to the AJ family & good luck as you go down the AJ rabbit hole with the rest of us. See you down there. She has done so many covers & most seem to be better than originals for she makes them her own. Angelina Jordan - Angelina Jordan was born Jan 10 2006 in Oslo, Norway. She is currently 14 - She began singing at the age of 1 1/2 to 2 - At 2 or 3 she discovered Jazz through UA-cam videos and started studying all the greats from Jazz history. Her Grandma would also play Jazz when she was 1-2 yrs old. - Angelina always sings barefoot..... When Angelina was 6, she was traveling with her grandmother and met a poor girl with no shoes trying to make money on the streets. The girl complimented her on her pretty shoes, so Angelina took them off and gave them to the girl. She made a vow to always sing barefoot until all the children of the world could have shoes. To this day, whenever Angelina is performing in public, she sings barefoot to remind us that there are less fortunate people in the world that could use our help. There's more to the story & it's more touching. When Angelina was 9 years old she wrote a book about the story that can be purchased on her website. (angelinajordanofficial) - She has always been the driving force behind her own singing career. It was her that asked her mother to take her to Norways Got Talent, where she auditioned at 7 years old and went won. - In an interview after the show, when asked what she was going to do with the prize money, she said, "I would like to give it to orphans that need clothes and shoes" - The reason you may not have heard of her is because her parents are very protective of her childhood. They do not want her to be thrust into stardom before she has a chance to grow up as a normal child, and finish her education. They allow her to do a few select shows (mainly private and charity events) with a couple public shows every year when she is out of school. Her mother said in an interview that they have turned down 90% of the offers that come in. I have heard they have turned down offers from many major record labels and even disney. - Angelina has covered around 170+ songs, over the last 6 years. She always selects the songs herself... everything ranging from old classic jazz to modern pop. She is able to change her voice to match any song she sings and make it her own. She can even cover Amy Winehouse and Lana del Rey ect... like you wouldn't believe. - Angelina has collaborated with some very big names over the last few years... Quincy Jones, Mark Ronson, David Foster, and many more. All of which heard her covering their songs and were blown away by her talent. When Queen heard her own version of Bohemian Rhapsody where blowin away when she was on AGT 2020. - Angelina has written three of her own original songs: "What is Life", "Shield" and "Oslo". (all are amazing...all can be found on youtube) I think Angelina Jordan is destined to be one of the greatest singers to have ever lived, I feel if she avoids the pitfalls of child success. Listen closely to any of her songs you can hear her greatness. She sings with a very natural style. She doesn't do any unnecessary runs, or big belty notes just for the purpose of showing off. She's humble & gentle & sweet She once said "When I sing I go into a magical world in my head", you can always hear the results of that as well as being brought into the songs.
Angelina has a jazz brain and with careful and natural development could become one if the great jazz singers of modern times. She also sings the songs of the likes off Lena Horne, Billy Holiday and Ella Fitzgerald. She is Norwegian.
Thanks so much for your thorough review and reaction to Angelina's interpretation of the song. I can assure she can belt out any song! Her vocal range is outstanding. But she chooses to interpret each song with different emotional connotations, with the right nuances and feeling. There are many kids singing nowadays but I haven't heard any like Angelina. She's an old soul which is impossible to copy or learn. Truly unique! Please react to more of her songs :) Thanks!
She is so unbelievable good, her voice is like a drug! She sing that so much better as the great Adele. I hope for more reacts from her. Thank you for your reaction!
She performed live with Alan Walker as she was 10 and sang the songs, "Faded" and "Sing me to sleep". Magic! I have no words for this mega talent. in my opinion is she one of the best female singer in the world. It doesent matter, how old she is.
I love your knowledgeable reaction and obvious appreciation of music. She turned 13 Jan 2019. Shes from Oslo. I hope she watches this. I don't think we need to worry about her future. Quincy Jones and Oprah took her to a music event. I did think she might have the words and music on her left. You thought so too and on your first viewing. More Angelina!!!!!!!😍😍😍💜💜💜💖💖💖💜💜💜💖💜
Stunningly beautiful, that version Angelina does here! If I had words to remotely express the size of this talent, I would have been a best selling writer! Great to see someone pro react to her! Thanks!
Angelina has been singing since she was 7 years old when she won Norway's got talent...Her voice seems to change in timbre from song to song..One of the best young talents in the world in my opinion .She has a very wide range of songs and can sing them all with great skill.....Her Jazz voice is unreal ....More please !!
Trev Davies! wrong!!! she has been singing since 1-1/2 years old, there are videos of her singing in her crib!!! she is utterly amazing! she has no fear of audience and you see when she won norways got talent, there was no music for her to sing by at the end, she did it without any music and was amazing!
I love your comments about Angelina Jordan ~ what a gift she has! Please listen to her live performance of Every Time we Say Goodbye, Cole Porter" done 2 yrs ago on a Norwegian TV program....she's only just now 13!
I clicked as soon as I saw this! Thank you for reacting to Angelina! Please react to her singing I Put A Spell On You. She was just 10 years old when she covered that song. That was a little over 3 years ago.
I agree... I put a spell on you.. is fantastic. I saw her at 7 years old at a talent show.. in her little dress, no shoes on. And she begin to sing... Fantastic voice.. a raw one.. Unique! you can find the song .....Gloomy Sunday by Billie Holiday - Norways Got Talent 2014 she was already special at 7 years old..... :)
This child star is going to be the first QUEEN of music. you"ve seen the best of the best now you are looking at the most very best of the best from all the rest and the rest is going to be HISTORY.
Fantastic news! Angelina has just been named as a contestant on America's Got Talent the Champions taking place in January. This is her first Major Performance in the United States since she was a child, but now an aspiring star. She has a new album of Originals coming soon and this may tie in in some way. We wish her the best as she is a treasure. Please share this with all your subscribers
Angelina Jordan Astar was 12 years old when this video was recorded. She has a great voice, and is one of my favourite music artist. I hope you will react to more Angelina Jordan videos! 😀
She touched us all when she appeared. The tears raged in many adult people. It was pure magic. Who could think that the young girl who was 6 years old when she appeared in the competition once in white dress, small-haired hair and without shoes could have a voice that she already had then. And look at her now. Has performed all over the world long before she became a teenager. And recently she has released her own music, an EP. And she only scores high on it among the peaks that "control" the musicworld today. Produktions Company, and from a lot of the best and And from other well-known, well-established musicians, and a lot of the well-known and highly acclaimed bands.. iIt will be exciting to follow her. She has just barely started her music care er. She will reach far. She captivates everyone when she sings 💖💖💖💖
One more thing, her lower register is outstanding, even compared with older singers.Beautiful :) it's easy for children or teenagers to reach higher tones (which she can as well, but not this deep, precise, rounde lower tones)
I follow her since years and she keeps astonishing me. Her voice has the soul of somebody who has lived a whole lifetime already. Stunning, just stunning. But I also love the guitarist. They go so well together. I like Adele but I love her version better.
She first appeared in Norway's Got Talent when she was 7 years old and already sounded like this - jazzy voice and old soul channeling perfectly well the Oldie-Goldie Songs I really encourage you to check out her other songs Especially these: 1. the 3 songs from Norway's Got Talent - "Gloomy Sunday", "Bang Bang" and "Summertime" plus 1 song that she performed acapella on a closed audition before the start of the show - "I Am A Fool To Want You" 2. "What a difference a Day Makes" on some outdoor concert in Norway (don't know where it was exactly) 3. "Fly Me to The Moon" - she has different renditions of this - and each time she sings it differently.... she actually does that with all the songs 4. "Born to Die" - the setting is similar to this video - just her and acoustic guitar
I'm glad that you have discovered the amazing Angelina. Be sure it is the b/w version of I Put A Spell On You, when she was 10, that you watch. It was an unbelievable rendition, simply stunning, like she was channeling Screamin' Jay Hawkins. The performances after that are considerably toned down. It must have been apparent that she could destroy her voice if she continued to sing with such intensity. I look forward to your reaction.
This child is one of the best singers on the planet right now and she just turned 13 in January. My first reaction was similar to yours so I had to find one where she did not use a microphone. It's incredible! This is her cover of "Always On My Mind," acoustic/no microphone: ua-cam.com/video/dd8r7c-4-ks/v-deo.html And here is a video of her belting out "This is a Man's World" with a live orchestra: ua-cam.com/video/HEm7tGrjIKk/v-deo.html
I find these kind of videos TOTALLY DUMB. People with no talent at all exploit these young artists with genuine gifts by showing their own face and monkey mimics in the foreground as if the world needs to admire clowns over the real talent. It is totally stupid. I wonder what Angelina Jordan would think about this exploitation of her songs by these self made judges. In my humble opinion, it is a total lack of respect towards this young artist. BIG thumb down to you too.
You really need to listen to AJ's version of Baby FuZz 'I'm Still Holding Out For You' , its stunning and if you want to hear how low her voice can go listen to 'How Great Thou Art'
Thank you for your reaction, Chris! I'm Ivan Mendez and I accompanied Jordan in this song. I just released a new song today on my channel and I would love to hear your thoughts!
angelina is great absolutely. Have you ever reacted on amira villighagen , a dutch operasinger who won holland got talent as 9 year. now she is 15 and the best in my opinion . Like angelina from another space
I normally can't stand it when someone interrupts her performance as many times as you did. But I admit I love how you pick up immediately on nuances that usually takes several listens to hear. :). You commented on how she is practically whispering. I agree with the others -- you must react to I Put a Spell On You -- then you will hear her power. Afterwards, listen to her cover of Whitney Houston's I Have Nothing -- then you'll hear her range. You have discovered a treasure trove! You'll love everything of hers you react to -- including when she was a jazz master at 7 years old. :)
But if you want to hear her sing watch the original video not a reaction and not a reaction from a vocal coach or a singer usually they do a technical reaction so we that study music can learn something from their professional opinions
But this is a „reaction“ channel. I like to hear real analyses, not just „Wau, hiw amazing!“ Why it is amazing? Ok, you hear it - but technically. I enjoy to listen how professionals analyze singing. I am a visual artist, I know how THAT is done - it is interesting to me to see that it in music.
Yup!! Her rendition of 'Born To Die' is wonderful!! There are many from her that is amazing! Her later cover from John Legend - All of Meis another master piece!
Kevin Neal Everyone loves this version Angelina sings. There is another one where the acoustics truly stand out and it is the song STAY. She also does Always on my mind which she does without a microphone and just a guitar as back up. She does though many acoustic videos which are fantastic.
This is Angellina Jordan Astar, she has been singing jazz since she was 18 months old, she won Norways got talent at 7, and she was one of the worlds great jazz singers by age 10. She is now 12/13 and has been just playing around on you tube with songs outside her comfort zone lately. Try listening to her whitney houston cover. She doesnt need a microphone, she could sing into a bucket and sound good.
From all the vocal coaches I’ve seen reacting to Angelina you’re the only one that have mentioned one very distinctive trait of her interpretation: the way she pronounces the vowels. She’s able to say every single syllable and still keep up ritme and pitch.
More Angelina please
Angelina is super talented. She can sing a wide variety of different music styles and singing styles. And she is a very genuine interpretator.
Great reaction! ❤ANGELina ❤

AJ is a youth with old soul, she is a gift to the world.❤️❤️❤️
I love your passion and reaction very genuine. Must watch other songs Angelina sings. She's angelic of our time.
12 years old. Singing an incredibly hard song in her third language, without having the lyrics memorized, and she just KILLS it! She is 13 now and has just appeared on America's Got Talent:Champions (She won Norways Got Talent in 2014 at age 7). Her version of the ballad part of Bohemian Rhapsody (Nothing Really Matters) won her a golden Buzzer. I've been telling every one who would listen about Angelina for a couple of years now!
Its very greatness in her voice shes doing very great
I have followed Angelina for 5 years! I pray that she stays safe and well as she grows to adult hood ! She is a treasure!
Me to! Who is the youngest solo artist to go Platinum in music history? Hint she is also from AGT!
ua-cam.com/video/0qGn641IG-Y/v-deo.html.
Her version of Id Rather Go Blind, the Etta James Classic, is a master class of vocal fry.
Angelina is an artist who weaves tapestries of music with her beguiling voice!

At times Angelina just takes your breath away. You wonder what just happened. Nicely done reaction by Anjocaine. Thanks.
Chris, Angelina has actually been singing since she was one and a half! She has many videos out there and there are only a few that aren't superior, only because of the sound quality. She sings live in concert, in studio , outdoors and in her living room. Many of her videos are arranged ,edited,produced and recorded by her ! She also has three original songs , Shield- What is Life and Oslo. Angelina makes every cover her own and doesn't ever try to sound like anybody but herself! She just turned 13 in January and her parents are very supportive but keep her grounded and humble, they insist that her education is the most important thing for her right now. She gets hundreds of requests to do appearances and her parents reject about 90 percent of them right now! I agree with the people below about every suggestion for you to react to, however if you really want to see her range watch I Put a Spell on you and then watch her cover of Etta James Every Time we say Goodbye! I have heard many artists cover I Put a Spell on you including Beth Hart, Nina Simone even the original by Screamin Jay Hawkins and none of them even come close to what she does with this song it's Grammy worthy in my opinion! She doesn't need me to sell her as she is quite capable of that herself! Welcome to Angelina's world! Check out more of her, you won't regret it!
She is my favorite female artist of all times,and Michael Jackson is my favorite Male artist . Wow she's already Legendary
... she is so fantastic!!! She has such a mystical exotic voice ❤️❤️❤️
Angelina Jordan is mind blowing. Who is the youngest solo artist to go Platinum in music history? Hint she is also from AGT!

Welcome to the AJ family & good luck as you go down the AJ rabbit hole with the rest of us. See you down there. She has done so many covers & most seem to be better than originals for she makes them her own.
Angelina Jordan
- Angelina Jordan was born Jan 10 2006 in Oslo, Norway. She is currently 14
- She began singing at the age of 1 1/2 to 2
- At 2 or 3 she discovered Jazz through UA-cam videos and started studying all the greats from Jazz history. Her Grandma would also play Jazz when she was 1-2 yrs old.
- Angelina always sings barefoot..... When Angelina was 6, she was traveling with her grandmother and met a poor girl with no shoes trying to make money on the streets. The girl complimented her on her pretty shoes, so Angelina took them off and gave them to the girl. She made a vow to always sing barefoot until all the children of the world could have shoes. To this day, whenever Angelina is performing in public, she sings barefoot to remind us that there are less fortunate people in the world that could use our help. There's more to the story & it's more touching. When Angelina was 9 years old she wrote a book about the story that can be purchased on her website. (angelinajordanofficial)
- She has always been the driving force behind her own singing career. It was her that asked her mother to take her to Norways Got Talent, where she auditioned at 7 years old and went won.
- In an interview after the show, when asked what she was going to do with the prize money, she said, "I would like to give it to orphans that need clothes and shoes"
- The reason you may not have heard of her is because her parents are very protective of her childhood. They do not want her to be thrust into stardom before she has a chance to grow up as a normal child, and finish her education. They allow her to do a few select shows (mainly private and charity events) with a couple public shows every year when she is out of school. Her mother said in an interview that they have turned down 90% of the offers that come in. I have heard they have turned down offers from many major record labels and even disney.
- Angelina has covered around 170+ songs, over the last 6 years. She always selects the songs herself... everything ranging from old classic jazz to modern pop. She is able to change her voice to match any song she sings and make it her own. She can even cover Amy Winehouse and Lana del Rey ect... like you wouldn't believe.
- Angelina has collaborated with some very big names over the last few years... Quincy Jones, Mark Ronson, David Foster, and many more. All of which heard her covering their songs and were blown away by her talent. When Queen heard her own version of Bohemian Rhapsody where blowin away when she was on AGT 2020.
- Angelina has written three of her own original songs: "What is Life", "Shield" and "Oslo". (all are amazing...all can be found on youtube)
I think Angelina Jordan is destined to be one of the greatest singers to have ever lived, I feel if she avoids the pitfalls of child success. Listen closely to any of her songs you can hear her greatness. She sings with a very natural style. She doesn't do any unnecessary runs, or big belty notes just for the purpose of showing off. She's humble & gentle & sweet She once said "When I sing I go into a magical world in my head", you can always hear the results of that as well as being brought into the songs.
Angelina has a jazz brain and with careful and natural development could become one if the great jazz singers of modern times. She also sings the songs of the likes off Lena Horne, Billy Holiday and Ella Fitzgerald. She is Norwegian.
Thanks so much for your thorough review and reaction to Angelina's interpretation of the song. I can assure she can belt out any song! Her vocal range is outstanding. But she chooses to interpret each song with different emotional connotations, with the right nuances and feeling. There are many kids singing nowadays but I haven't heard any like Angelina. She's an old soul which is impossible to copy or learn. Truly unique! Please react to more of her songs :) Thanks!
Love Angelina and your reaction and knowledgable comments would love to see you react to more of her videos and songs
I really liked your reaction, it was pure, honest and competent. And we can feel and share the passion for a great performance !
She is so unbelievable good, her voice is like a drug! She sing that so much better as the great Adele. I hope for more reacts from her. Thank you for your reaction!
Geist derStunde Yes, it’s like a drug, I watch her every second day, I can’t resist.
Concordo. Ela é a única que consegue me emocionar cantando essa música. Nem a própria Adele conseguiu me emocionar como ela.
She loves that mic. I think it's a Neuman TML 103. Great mic. Great voice. Great song. She's genius. Bless her heart. And she's maybe 12.
You have excellent taste, & I'm enjoying your comments because you're real! Good constructive comments!! Angelina is awesome...she will go far!!
It really looks like the guy playing guitar is really enjoying himself! and she is great, a bright young new star is born.
She has a distinctive beautiful voice, more Angelina reactions please..
Make more videos of Angelina! Please!
She performed live with Alan Walker as she was 10 and sang the songs, "Faded" and "Sing me to sleep". Magic! I have no words for this mega talent. in my opinion is she one of the best female singer in the world. It doesent matter, how old she is.
Her technical ability is phenomenal. She sings with absolute integrity. Superb.
You were about to discover gold, my friend... Angelina is music diamond 💎
Thank you for your awesome reaction, and welcome to the beautiful world of Angelina
I love your knowledgeable reaction and obvious appreciation of music. She turned 13 Jan 2019. Shes from Oslo. I hope she watches this. I don't think we need to worry about her future. Quincy Jones and Oprah took her to a music event.
I did think she might have the words and music on her left. You thought so too and on your first viewing.
More Angelina!!!!!!!😍😍😍💜💜💜💖💖💖💜💜💜💖💜
She's the best lady singer of this world
Stunningly beautiful, that version Angelina does here! If I had words to remotely express the size of this talent, I would have been a best selling writer! Great to see someone pro react to her! Thanks!
SHE WAS TOO GOOD FOR AGT THE CHAMPIONS. WE LOVE HOU ANGELINA KEEP GOING AND TAKE OUY THE WORLD
An old soul captured into the body of a little girl.
Beautiful
Angelina has been singing since she was 7 years old when she won Norway's got talent...Her voice seems to change in timbre from song to song..One of the best young talents in the world in my opinion .She has a very wide range of songs and can sing them all with great skill.....Her Jazz voice is unreal ....More please !!
I think Angelina Jordan and Billie Eilish are gonna dominate the music charts for many years
@@BlackWolfSpirit - Agree ! ! !
Trev Davies! wrong!!! she has been singing since 1-1/2 years old, there are videos of her singing in her crib!!! she is utterly amazing! she has no fear of audience and you see when she won norways got talent, there was no music for her to sing by at the end, she did it without any music and was amazing!
She says on one show, that she started singing at one and a half lol, she was seven or eight when she said it
I love your comments about Angelina Jordan ~ what a gift she has! Please listen to her live performance of Every Time we Say Goodbye, Cole Porter" done 2 yrs ago on a Norwegian TV program....she's only just now 13!
Great critique! Love her talent 💗
I think her album would be a collection of No. 1 hits. AJ is pure heaven.
Who is the youngest solo artist to go Platinum in music history? Hint she is also from AGT!
ua-cam.com/video/0qGn641IG-Y/v-deo.html.
I love your reaction! have a look at her Whitney houston cover to see how high she can go, I think this girl is just the best singer out there
We all know by now how great she is, so i gotta say, that guitar player is so emotional! He is perfect.
I clicked as soon as I saw this! Thank you for reacting to Angelina! Please react to her singing I Put A Spell On You. She was just 10 years old when she covered that song. That was a little over 3 years ago.
I agree... I put a spell on you.. is fantastic. I saw her at 7 years old at a talent show.. in her little dress, no shoes on. And she begin to sing... Fantastic voice.. a raw one.. Unique! you can find the song .....Gloomy Sunday by Billie Holiday - Norways Got Talent 2014 she was already special at 7 years old..... :)
@@mimid.9965 yes, I've watched that video many times and I agree with you. Angelina was born to sing and jazz is her forte.
Great reaction ! From now on , you will be hooked on Angelina ! React to other covers by her .
She is just amazing.
This child star is going to be the first QUEEN of music. you"ve seen the best of the best now you are looking at the most very best of the best from all the rest and the rest is going to be HISTORY.
I love Angelina 😍
She’s great great great,, this for u comments!!
Fantastic news! Angelina has just been named as a contestant on America's Got Talent the Champions taking place in January. This is her first Major Performance in the United States since she was a child, but now an aspiring star. She has a new album of Originals coming soon and this may tie in in some way. We wish her the best as she is a treasure. Please share this with all your subscribers
Angelinas voice is like liquid gold ...the 12 year old child with the voice of a 30 year old
True, her voice is like liquid gold, but I'm not a 30 year old female singer on this world, who has such an incredible voice as angelina.
I love the way she sings this girl put feeling in all her songs she's great
Angelina Jordan Astar was 12 years old when this video was recorded. She has a great voice, and is one of my favourite music artist. I hope you will react to more Angelina Jordan videos! 😀
She touched us all when she appeared. The tears raged in many adult people. It was pure magic. Who could think that the young girl who was 6 years old when she appeared in the competition once in white dress, small-haired hair and without shoes could have a voice that she already had then. And look at her now. Has performed all over the world long before she became a teenager. And recently she has released her own music, an EP. And she only scores high on it among the peaks that "control" the musicworld today. Produktions Company, and from a lot of the best and And from other well-known, well-established musicians, and a lot of the well-known and highly acclaimed bands..
iIt will be exciting to follow her. She has just barely started her music care er.
She will reach far. She captivates everyone when she sings
💖💖💖💖
She is amazing... Beautiful voice shes a star god bless this girl
Great reaction. Angelina is so talented and has a great future ahead of her. I also love the way the guitarist is so into it.
:-)) Love
The mic is mentioned a lot. It's a Neumann mic that is designed specifically for vocals: an excellent choice for Angelina.
Listen to her with no mic. Same sounds
One more thing, her lower register is outstanding, even compared with older singers.Beautiful :) it's easy for children or teenagers to reach higher tones (which she can as well, but not this deep, precise, rounde lower tones)
One of your best reactions of Angelina! 😘 you love high notes but she's singing so low...👍😊
I follow her since years and she keeps astonishing me. Her voice has the soul of somebody who has lived a whole lifetime already. Stunning, just stunning.
But I also love the guitarist. They go so well together.
I like Adele but I love her version better.
I love Angelina more!!!!!
OMG! Beautiful voice. Very talented.
You must listen to “ I Put A Spell On You”. You will be blown away by just how low she goes and she is younger as well. Blows me away
She first appeared in Norway's Got Talent when she was 7 years old and already sounded like this - jazzy voice and old soul channeling perfectly well the Oldie-Goldie Songs
I really encourage you to check out her other songs Especially these:
1. the 3 songs from Norway's Got Talent -
"Gloomy Sunday",
"Bang Bang"
and "Summertime"
plus 1 song that she performed acapella on a closed audition before the start of the show - "I Am A Fool To Want You"
2. "What a difference a Day Makes" on some outdoor concert in Norway (don't know where it was exactly)
3. "Fly Me to The Moon" - she has different renditions of this - and each time she sings it differently.... she actually does that with all the songs
4. "Born to Die" - the setting is similar to this video - just her and acoustic guitar
Angelina es fabulosa, me encanta!!!
I'm glad that you have discovered the amazing Angelina. Be sure it is the b/w version of I Put A Spell On You, when she was 10, that you watch. It was an unbelievable rendition, simply stunning, like she was channeling Screamin' Jay Hawkins. The performances after that are considerably toned down. It must have been apparent that she could destroy her voice if she continued to sing with such intensity. I look forward to your reaction.
'Feelin Good Live on The Stream' is another great one!!
Her pitch is so very good. Recording voice for days...
You are so handsome... and this cover is one of the best ever done of any Adele song
You are right, this should be recorded.
My favorite singer! Please watch when she won Norways got talent as 8 year old singing soul 😘
This child is one of the best singers on the planet right now and she just turned 13 in January. My first reaction was similar to yours so I had to find one where she did not use a microphone. It's incredible! This is her cover of "Always On My Mind," acoustic/no microphone:
ua-cam.com/video/dd8r7c-4-ks/v-deo.html
And here is a video of her belting out "This is a Man's World" with a live orchestra:
ua-cam.com/video/HEm7tGrjIKk/v-deo.html
I find these kind of videos TOTALLY DUMB. People with no talent at all exploit these young artists with genuine gifts by showing their own face and monkey mimics in the foreground as if the world needs to admire clowns over the real talent. It is totally stupid. I wonder what Angelina Jordan would think about this exploitation of her songs by these self made judges. In my humble opinion, it is a total lack of respect towards this young artist. BIG thumb down to you too.
@@AlegreViajero44 - opinions are like ass holes...except yours is big and crusty.
@James Stewart - now you have it...a first!
You have to do more songs from her 👍😊❤️
You really need to listen to AJ's version of Baby FuZz 'I'm Still Holding Out For You' , its stunning and if you want to hear how low her voice can go listen to 'How Great Thou Art'
Thank you!
You should react when her sings" Born to die" this is very 👍👍good
Born to die is all about her peerless
low register.
check her out doing California Dreaming with this guitarist!! amazing
I first watched Angelina when she was 7 yo and was swept away! She was on a talent show.
You have got to watch her sing ; "I PUT A SPELL ON YOU" when she was around 10 years old. it blow you away..
Angelina has a great voice! She needs
original music to unleash her into
superstar Song writers get busy!
She can be legendary. Give her the
chance!
Thank you for your reaction, Chris! I'm Ivan Mendez and I accompanied Jordan in this song. I just released a new song today on my channel and I would love to hear your thoughts!
angelina is great absolutely. Have you ever reacted on amira villighagen , a dutch operasinger who won holland got talent as 9 year. now she is 15 and the best in my opinion . Like angelina from another space
She chose this before she was born, for her own experience and ours, and we can share it after the end....
Thank you for your very nice and interesting comment ! Listen to « I have nothing » from Angelina .She is an immense talent .
I normally can't stand it when someone interrupts her performance as many times as you did. But I admit I love how you pick up immediately on nuances that usually takes several listens to hear. :). You commented on how she is practically whispering. I agree with the others -- you must react to I Put a Spell On You -- then you will hear her power. Afterwards, listen to her cover of Whitney Houston's I Have Nothing -- then you'll hear her range. You have discovered a treasure trove! You'll love everything of hers you react to -- including when she was a jazz master at 7 years old. :)
She has a complete version of 'I Who Have Nothing' from when she was 6. Also her Oslo concert, 'It's A Man's World' is out of this world!
But if you want to hear her sing watch the original video not a reaction and not a reaction from a vocal coach or a singer usually they do a technical reaction so we that study music can learn something from their professional opinions
HER POWER IS SHOWN ON THE WHITNEY HUSTON COVER I HAVE NOTHING
But this is a „reaction“ channel. I like to hear real analyses, not just „Wau, hiw amazing!“ Why it is amazing? Ok, you hear it - but technically. I enjoy to listen how professionals analyze singing. I am a visual artist, I know how THAT is done - it is interesting to
me to see that it in music.
@@sannajohanna5579 some over analyse the music though
Yup!! Her rendition of 'Born To Die' is wonderful!! There are many from her that is amazing! Her later cover from John Legend - All of Meis another master piece!
She can go much higher! This I know!
Kevin Neal
Everyone loves this version Angelina sings. There is another one where the acoustics truly stand out and it is the song STAY. She also does Always on my mind which she does without a microphone and just a guitar as back up. She does though many acoustic videos which are fantastic.
This is Angellina Jordan Astar, she has been singing jazz since she was 18 months old, she won Norways got talent at 7, and she was one of the worlds great jazz singers by age 10. She is now 12/13 and has been just playing around on you tube with songs outside her comfort zone lately. Try listening to her whitney houston cover. She doesnt need a microphone, she could sing into a bucket and sound good.
Watching again! Great reaction!
They dare Angelinat
to sing (I feel good ).
From all the vocal coaches I’ve seen reacting to Angelina you’re the only one that have mentioned one very distinctive trait of her interpretation: the way she pronounces the vowels. She’s able to say every single syllable and still keep up ritme and pitch.
Watch Ivan (guitarist) just so mesmerised by her singing. He knows he's in the presence of greatness and so happy to be part of it. Lucky guy.
I like how in a lot of her videos she corrects her musicians when they mess up by casting them a glance . Love it !
I possess one of "that looks" capabilities. I have not saw any reports of anything but corrections from her "that" look. Way to go young lady!
Since I discovered her a couple months ago she has become an addiction.
Angelinas I put a Spell on You is beyond amazing...please review!!
The black and white studio version, when she was little 8or 10. I think that's the most entertaining song. Imho
Best voice on the planet no matter what she sings she is truly gifted and we are fortunate to be able to hear it
I'd like to hear you do I Put A Spell on You.
And because you like specific words listen to how she says "church" in Bang Bang.
Great review and reaction to a great talented singer. Thanks a million!
Please react to Angelina when she was younger too it's so mindblowing
