    "Baby" Angelina is completely mindblowing (I call her that at this stage, because let's face it. When our own children are this age, most of us still call them our babies, and Angelina is the adopted child or grandchild to the WHOLE of UA-cam 😊). As you so rightly pointed out, this is not an easy song to sing, even for an adult, experienced professional with a full arsenal of in-ear or over-ear monitors, full musical accompaniment and full studio production. That this tiny child did it, a capella, with pretty much perfect pitch, timing and phrasing, is beyond amazing. However, the studio version is world-class perfection. Hard to choose, so like many other Angels, I choose Angelina ❤.

    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.

    There are a few covers when she is older, (10 and up) where she stays very close to the original, "You Say" is one of those and this one I think Billie Holiday came alive and wanted to sing one more song and did it through Angelina. I like how she gets into her world--wore the hair piece for a studio recording and she gets intimate with the pop filter as this is a very deep song so I think that helped put her in that space. I think she absorbed everything she listened to and that is why her color palette is almost infinite. She has kept all of this art and sound from the past alive--because it "lives" inside her soul for her to recreate in her own special way with her vision, her tone, her voice, and the connection she has with all people. There will be and are other great artists, but I'm not sure there will ever be another Angelina Jordan. This is for some of you--Angelina creates a cover the way she interprets/feels it and if that is close to how the original artist treated the work the cover will be closer to the original. There are times when she takes a verse and sings it very close and i think that is a nod to the original artist. Have a great day.

    PS : My little Angelina 👩 where are you going 👣? what will you achieve? Angelina Jordan, whose journey to fame began as a young child 👩,has already accomplished remarkable feats in her life! When she won Norway's Got Talent🥇at the tender age of eight, she captured hearts 💞 with her soulful 💖❤️‍🔥 vocals and distinctive barefoot performances 👣! Her viral renditions of classic songs🎶 have received billions of views, showing the world 🌍 her unique talent 👩😲🎙! In addition to her musical 🎶 achievements, Angelina has also made a name for herself as a philanthropist, raising money 💸 for environmental causes 🌍 and children's charities 👩‍❤️‍💋‍👨, and as an author, becoming Norway's youngest published author with her book "Mellom tho hjerter" (Between two 💕 hearts)! As for the human lifespan, advances in medical science and understanding of our biology suggest that living 150 years could be within reach! Research into longevity and the human lifespan continues to evolve, with some studies suggesting that the maximum human lifespan could be as long as 150 years! This opens up a world of possibilities for what one can achieve in their lifetime, especially for someone as young 👩😲🎙 and talented as Angelina Jordan! Her future could bring further artistic endeavors, continued commitment to charitable causes, and perhaps even new frontiers at the intersection of technology and music 🎶! As time goes on, the potential of what Angelina, and indeed each individual, can achieve in their life may only be limited by the breadth of their dreams 😌 and the depth of their passions ❤️‍🔥✨️💖😊!
    PS: If Billie Holiday were still here! (RIP💖) She would be extremely proud of Angelina👌! because Angelina sings her song 👸 as "respect and tribute" 😲! and in the same melodic 🎶 style 😲🎙! just with little riffs, runs! and the typical unique melismas 🎶 that only Angelina has 😊! With 7years Acapella AWESOME 👍👌😇! With 11 years more maturity Awesome 👍👌😇!

    Well said Carl about all the grouchy comments! I love all of Angelina’s music and find it impossible to say which I like the best. She puts her heart and soul into everything she does and always has done, she oozes with love and I believe this is the reason her music moves people in a way that very few artists, past or present, can do.
    Keep going with what you’re doing, we all need a bit of lightheartedness in our lives!

    Angelina's most recent presentation is the best 'single song' depiction of all the elements she learned from
    her true mentor, the great Billie Holiday. You hear where she adopted the unique phrasing, breathy releases,
    extreme emotional output, going from singing to talking within lyrical lines, and a host of other musical
    facets invented by Billie as she displayed improvisational vocalizing on a level that no other singer attained.
    After hearing this rendition by Angelina, as she emulates Billie, it becomes easy to understand why Angelina
    has said, 'if not for the legendary music of Billie Holiday reaching her so early, there would be no Angelina
    Jordan'.

    Thanks pops. I fully understand your motive here and as long as you're careful about the comparison issue I have no problem. I think both were phenomenal and I was also impressed with the acapella performance at 7 years old. But my favorite is the performance at 11 years old as at that age, she fully embodied Billie Holiday. There is a great mashup available of Billie Holiday singing back and forth with Angelina at age 11 to see just how well Angelina is doing.
    ua-cam.com/video/e0uNcXOs4SQ/v-deo.htmlsi=KMqzUxrCq9WTIEst
    There are several other mashups with other original artists if you search on UA-cam for Angelina Jordan mashups or duets. Some of them are outstanding. Peace out.

    Künstler zu vergleichen ist ein schwieriges Unterfangen. In Grunde ist es schlicht nicht möglich Künstler zu vergleichen. Deshalb sollte man es auch unbedingt unterlassen.
    Das hat mit dem Spaßfaktor nichts zu tuen. Es geht um den Respekt der Künstler. Den Spaß kann ja jeder gerne leben, aber dann in seiner privaten eigenen Welt.

You amplify the drama by reacting to it. Remember, very few people ever post... and of the ones that do it's also a very small percentage who react negatively. At the end of the day your really getting a 95% plus Neutral (non - posting) or positive reactions... and your amplifying the negative minority? Hope that makes sense.
