Angelina has always been able to take a song and make you feel every lyric . She makes you feel the meaning of every song ❤️ I love your channel . Good reactors do pause and explain what they are hearing . Keep being you . Haters gonna hate and trolls troll 😘
The metamorphosis of AJ Angelina Jordan's evolution from a child prodigy to a full-grown artist is a testament to her enduring talent and the natural progression of life. It's not uncommon for fans to feel nostalgic about artists they've followed since childhood, but growth and change are intrinsic to the human experience. As Angelina transitions into adulthood, her style and presentation may change, but what remains constant is her unique voice that continues to captivate audiences worldwide. Her journey reflects the transformation every artist undergoes, adapting and maturing both personally and professionally. This metamorphosis often brings a deeper, more resonant voice and a presence that resonates with both the innocence of youth and the wisdom of experience. Angelina's ability to maintain her signature sound while enhancing it with the strength of adulthood is what makes her a true phenomenon in the music industry. PS. If anyone questions her abilities as an adult, all one has to do is experience her performance in Dec. of 2023 at the Nobel Peace Prize on Oslo, Norway when she performed the most exquisite performance in my lifetime of Unchained Melody with the KORK Orchestra, no one on earth could have performed it better.
The church version is close to perfection. It always moves me the way she can bring you down from her powerful belting voice--and like a tuft of down just floats it down to the voice tapering to nothing. Best runs in the biz.
Nice reaction! On the piano is the co-writer of the song, Toby Gad. Just to let you know, the other co-writer of the song, BC Jean, was the first to sing the song as well as the person the song came from. She had just broken with the man that she loved. Per Toby, they played it for Beyonce one day and she really wanted to sing and use this song, and the rest you say is history. Angelina and Toby have been working together for a while now and are creating new music for her to sing. They teased a song at a special event called Bad Valentine and it should be coming out within a few months. This collaboration is awesome! The Piano Diaries is Toby's project of other singers singing his most famous songs. Angelina of course is singing this song made famous by Beyonce. Toby actually directed and produced the first video you watched. Who is Toby Gad? Gad is a German music producer and songwriter based in Los Angeles. He is known for co-writing songs including John Legend's biggest hit, "All of Me", the fifth-highest certified single in RIAA history, and for co-writing and producing "Big Girls Don't Cry" by Fergie and "If I Were a Boy" by Beyoncé. Other notable works include "Skyscraper" for Demi Lovato, "Who You Are" for Jessie J, "Untouched" for The Veronicas, "A Year Without Rain" for Selena Gomez & the Scene, "Don't Hold Your Breath" for Nicole Scherzinger, "Love You More" for JLS, and "I Do" for Colbie Caillat.
Toby Gad is a multi Grammy award winning songwriter and producer. He has worked with many of the biggest superstars in the music industry producing award-winning hits. He is currently in process of producing an album of his top eight songs called Piano Diaries. He invited Angelina to perform this song with him at piano, which was originally made famous by Beyoncé in 2008, and has received over 600 million views. Most believe this version is much more touching and emotional, and Angelina has made it hers. Move over Beyoncé! Toby and Angelina are working on some original music coming in the next few months, possibly as an album. He is very influential in the industry and this undoubtedly is a huge break for Angelina.
Sebs, it was brilliant of you to watch both of her videos in that order. The second video and Angelina's music video of Suspicious Minds are IMO Angelina's voice at its finest! Welcome back to the world of Angelina Jordan 🌎🎤🎵🌠
The Barefoot Angel at 7 years old told us "when I grow up, I want to become a superstar." Today at 18 years old, we are watching Angelina a superstar walking and singing in front of our eyes. Thanks for reacting to this awesome performance by Angelina.
Toby Gad, and AJ have written a new song!**** The collaboration between Toby Gad and Angelina Jordan has sparked excitement with the announcement of their new original song "Bad Valentine." The anticipation for its release is high, especially after their recent performance at the Hotel Cafe. While the exact release date has not been officially announced, fans eagerly await the new material, which promises to showcase Jordan's unique vocal talents alongside Gad's renowned songwriting skills. Their previous work together, coupled with Jordan's powerful rendition of "If I Were a Boy," suggests that "Bad Valentine" will be another significant addition to her growing repertoire. The music community is abuzz with speculation and enthusiasm for this upcoming release. If I Were A Boy Angelina Jordan's rise in the music industry is a testament to her exceptional talent and unique voice. From a young age, she has captivated audiences with her soulful performances and mature musical understanding. Her ability to connect with listeners and deliver performances with emotional depth is unparalleled. As she continues to grow as an artist, her influence extends beyond the charts, inspiring a new generation of musicians and music lovers alike. With each performance, she reaffirms her status as a prodigious talent in the world of music. AJ' s ability to imbue each song with deep emotion and her own distinctive style makes her a sought-after artist for songwriters and composers. Having a song performed by her can be seen as a mark of prestige, potentially elevating the song's reach and impact. It's a testament to her talent that songwriters might feel that having her interpret their work would bring a new level of recognition and appreciation to their music. Beyonce' version of "If I Were A Boy" was good, but AJ's version gives one chills and causes us to cry, not sad tears but happy emotional tears of joy.
Thank you Sebs for getting to my request so quickly from your livestream. And wow! What great timing. When Angelina has dropped her Official Music Video. And then the one I requested, which I believe is the best of several performances. A two for one. How great is that? This is really huge for Angelina I believe. Toby Gad is a Hit writer, multi Grammy winner and producer. Piano Diaries is a reimagining of 8 of his songs I believe. He chose Angelia for 'his reimagining' of this song. Toby and Angelina are working together an new material and She has already performed but not released another song called 'Bad Valentine' and there are hints they are working on an Album. Fingers crossed. I try to remember to let you know when something dropped. Sounded like it could be several months. We are all waiting for more. I really believe Angelina is at the very precipice of her explosion on the worlds Music Scene! We are getting to watch it in real time unlike for most of us as we missed her first on a smaller though still global stage in Norway's Got Talent. All of us as fans have been able to go back and watch her grow up with the voluminous videos of her growth as both an artist, singer and beautiful human being with the heart of a lion. Thank you Sebs. You go girl! 😊♥👣

Welcome back to Angelina. You should out the videos of her Las Vegas shows in February. Best videos are on James Thiel’s and Big Angie Fan’s channels. Also her performance at the Nobel Peace Prize, also great video on James Thiel’s channel.
Glad you got around to this last version in the church...she immerses herself unapologetically in emotion. With only a piano and a cello and the amazing voice she has...produced this beautiful version. All I can say is Beyonce who? Thank you for the reaction, and thank God for the Angel named Angelina Jordan! PEACE!
I think we are already seeing the change from child prodigy to DIVA mode... her classic, elegant style, without having excessive ornaments either in her music or in her person... just talent, class, elegance and great style... ahaha and working with the best song writers, musicians and producers in the world...
So great to see you back reacting to Angelina ❤ Great reaction again and I agree with you. The music video is great but I prefer Angeling with only the piano, cello and violin here. Love from 🇧🇻
Nice to see you back Sebs. Angelina’s been quite busy in your absence. A similar mind-blowingly good video is Angelina performing at the *Nobel Peace prize celebration* back in December. You owe it to yourself and your daughters to react to James Thiel’s beautifully crafted video that provides needed context to *Narges Mohammadi, the 2023 recipient of the Nobel Peace prize.* Narges has been *separated from her children,* a twin boy and girl, for *nine YEARS* while serving time in an Iranian prison for protesting human rights violations by the government of Iran. There is so much to understand about Narges’ plight and it is all presented beautifully and succinctly by James in this masterpiece video. Angelina’s performance at the end of the video is a heartfelt masterpiece too - quite possibly her best performance EVER! Here’s the link: m.ua-cam.com/video/T6iqTCPeIF4/v-deo.html
Those us that love Agelina's voice, prefer a basic or acoustic performance to enjoy her voice. But I understand that to grow in this industry she need to do more pop style versions. At least, by now, she do both and we can enjoy her wonderful voice in more purer way.
Have to say walking with this tall young lady you better have your "speed walkers" on your feet....damn..... Two great videos and thanks to Sebs for doing both...nice to see you back. Have listened to Beyonce's cover and though very nice, this is the next level of a vocal master right here...Thanks to Toby Gad for having the musical intelligence to invite Angelina for the re-makes of these songs from him....smart guy!!! Cheers Sebs....stay well.
I agree with you Sebs, the 2nd video in the church is my favorite version. Angelina, a mic & a couple of great musicians is what I want to see & her vocals a just impeccable.
The music video: beautifully done. The church performance: MASTERCLASS in every aspect: The setting. The production. The acoustics. The ambience. The arrangement. The instrumentation. And sailing majestically above everything else, the voice and vocal mastery above and beyond anything achievable by any other artist on the planet.
They’ve released another version still of apparently a rehearsal in the church with Angelina singing a cappella the first part and hearing the reverb from the rafters! A must see and hear!
Tobias "Toby" Gad (born 28 March 1968) is a German music producer and songwriter based in Los Angeles. He is known for co-writing songs including John Legend's biggest hit, "All of Me", the fifth-highest certified single in RIAA history, and for co-writing and producing "Big Girls Don't Cry" by Fergie and "If I Were a Boy" by Beyoncé. Other notable works include "Skyscraper" for Demi Lovato, "Who You Are" for Jessie J, "Untouched" for The Veronicas, "A Year Without Rain" for Selena Gomez & the Scene, "Don't Hold Your Breath" for Nicole Scherzinger, "Love You More" for JLS, and "I Do" for Colbie Caillat.
Hi, I love Angelina Jordan. She is extraordinary interpreter. Amazing ! Please, I have a suggestion to you. Listen Gabriel Henrique singing STAND UP with Coral Black to Black. He’s from Brazil. He sang of the American Got Talent too.
Ya, the church version drops the drums and finger-snapping, making you listen to the words-very powerful stuff. Actually, I think Angelina is at her best with just two instruments. Piano and a Guitar or, in this case, Piano and Chello{whoever came up with the Chello is a genius)
Welcome back to Angelina, Sebs! Great double header! If you want to go back a bit, I recommend AJ's Suspicious Minds cover and her original Now I'm the Fool off her Old Enough EP. AJ also did an updated cover of I Have Nothing (Whitney Houston), a song you did a reaction to when AJ was younger. And of course, her Las Vegas concert has lots of very good fan produced content to check out.
Thank you, Sebs, for your pleasant reaction. It's nice that you played the two versions. There are also fan-made videos from her concert in Las Vegas where she shines.
My last comment about Beth Hart was supposed to be to the song I'd Rather Be Blind! This video is great, so is the stripped down version they did in a church is also Great!
Great reaction Seb and your comments... please continue to react to Angelina. See her Nobel Peace Prize presentation and Las Vegas concerts. I would to hear from you. I am sure that we miss you too.
Sebs, Both covers of this are glorious but like you I prefer the stripped down version Piano Diaries. That version has no distractions and lets her voice absolutely shine. Thanks to Toby for asking her to sing this cover of his song for his Piano Diaries album. Toby is quoted saying, “Working with Angelina has been nothing short of inspiring. Her ability to channel profound emotion through her voice adds a whole new depth to the song.” They are also working on other songs for AJ. This will be huge for her. I have just finished going through your AJ playlist again and I see you have missed one of Angelina's most impressive songs. I recommend you listen to Unchained Melody Noble Peace Prize released in Dec 2023. It is beautiful music and definitely in my current top 5 Angelina songs - this could very easily change going forward because just like all AJ Angels, very often the next is the best yet.
Love your channel, Sebs. You always have insightful comments, and thanks for this reaction! Especially doing both versions. AJ and Toby Gad are new collaborators and working on some new originals. I hope your react to more of Angelina Jordan. She's got lots of new music, from her EP Old Enough to new performance videos from her Vegas appearance. You're a good dad to be bringing up girls. They're so lucky, and you're so lucky!
On the piano diaries version when she looks into the camera I feel like she's looking at me. I feel like she's trying to stare into my soul, gives me the creeps. And I would have loved to have had you react to this with Ali, would have loved to have heard her take on this song
Sebs, thanks for tackling BOTH the music vid and the session with songwriter at piano. I'd actually like to hear her collaborate with Keith Urban on an AJ-version/arrangement of his hit 'Stupid Boy' with his guitar work and vocals too. I know, everyone thinks he's 'just' Country...but I don't agree. That man's a MUSICIAN and singer, and songwriter, and a GREAT collaborator. I really think their voices together on his song would be truly exceptional, and I suspect her re-arrangement would be EPIC. And we'd get to hear him do an even BETTER guitar solo, since he clearly feeds of the magic of his collaborations with others. This song side A that song side B. Quadruple platinum I'll bet. There's a LOT of young (and older) women out there who've been frustrated, disheartened, and more than a tad upset at just how many of us Stupid Boys they've run into as they continue to hope to make the life they deserve and to truly thrive. Quadruple Platinum. I'll bet my full one dollar limit.
I love all things Angelina. I had mixed feelings about this song when we were being fed all those teases just prior to this release, but I kept listening and doing my usual with Angelina, falling in love, and now this string/piano version in church, and I'm a goner, over the top in love with the song. I expect this to be such a magical year for Angelina. A story-teller supreme, gifted with a voice like none other. Collaborating now with Toby Gad. If only the rest of the world would hit pause and take a moment to listen to this young lady sing...if only. I would love to get your take on Angelina's performance at the 2023 Nobel Peace Prize Awards where she sang "Unchained Melody": ua-cam.com/video/8LAMPz57Aqw/v-deo.html The best performance of her life, so far.
There's another version that she did at Hotel Cafe in Hollywood with Toby Gad, plus an all new original called Bad Valentine, you think IIWAB was great.....wait.
There is an original song you must listen to if you are a true Angel. Bad Valentine. ❤❤👣❤❤
Official music being released 9/20.
In the second version Angelina goes full acapella and takes the lead.
The piano and cello follow her and are the icing on the emotional cake.
Thank you for the nice reaction to young legend!
Angelina has always been able to take a song and make you feel every lyric . She makes you feel the meaning of every song ❤️ I love your channel . Good reactors do pause and explain what they are hearing . Keep being you . Haters gonna hate and trolls troll 😘
Angelina Jordan Astar is the GOAT 💯

I also prefer the second version (Piano diaries).
Be safe with your loved ones.

Welcome back to the world of Angelina Jordan 🌎🎤🎵🌠
Only one word: WOW!!😍😍😍🤩🤩🤩
Yup (one word in response)
The Barefoot Angel at 7 years old told us "when I grow up, I want to become a superstar." Today at 18 years old, we are watching Angelina a superstar walking and singing in front of our eyes.
Thanks for reacting to this awesome performance by Angelina.

You missed her whole Vegas Concert, both of them
How could anybody believe that Angelina would not grow into the artist she is now. Some people were born into their purpose. Angelina is one of those.
This is now in my top 5 Angelina covers, along with another 150 or so other top fives……

If I Were A Boy

ANGELINA SAID: What an honor to be part of this iconic song and @tobygadmusic Piano Diares album. Feels so special to be part of (If I Were A Boy) with the actual legend who made it. I’m so so happy with the way this beautiful song turned out! Hope you guys enjoy it as much as we do ❤️ full music video is out now on my official UA-cam channel! More music coming with me and Toby! Get ready for that ✨? YES 100% 👍👌😊!
Thank you a thousand times for the support, my fellow angel 😇 from Angelina!! our jazz queen👸 and angel 😇!! on her two You Tube channels 🙏 She deserves it a thousand times over 😀!
Pure magic!! 💫 👸🏻🎙👣🫶🏻 great reaction, Thanks! Nice to see you back reacting to Angelina 👍🏻
❤❤❤
Good to see you critique Angelina again! Great comments, God Bless You!✨🇨🇦✨
Angelina Jordan, Bad Valentine. Newest with Toby Gad.
I like the piano diaries performance the best also.
I'm agree about the eyes. I would like to see her beautiful brown eyes.
Welcome back to Angelina. You should out the videos of her Las Vegas shows in February. Best videos are on James Thiel’s and Big Angie Fan’s channels. Also her performance at the Nobel Peace Prize, also great video on James Thiel’s channel.
100% agree! You can find James at www.youtube.com/@summaEngineer. And definitely don't miss AJ's Nobel Peace Prize tribute to Narges Mohammadi!
Long time! Missing you reacting to Angelina! You should react to Bad Valentine ❤
Glad you got around to this last version in the church...she immerses herself unapologetically in emotion. With only a piano and a cello and the amazing voice she has...produced this beautiful version. All I can say is Beyonce who? Thank you for the reaction, and thank God for the Angel named Angelina Jordan! PEACE!
I think we are already seeing the change from child prodigy to DIVA mode... her classic, elegant style, without having excessive ornaments either in her music or in her person... just talent, class, elegance and great style... ahaha and working with the best song writers, musicians and producers in the world...
Missed your reactions to Angelina. Thanks for coming back .... Just subscribed 🙂
So great to see you back reacting to Angelina ❤
Great reaction again and I agree with you.
The music video is great but I prefer Angeling with only the piano, cello and violin here.
Love from 🇧🇻
Yet another level of Angelina.
Agree church version.... beautiful
Gotta say it again, Toby Gad is a really decent video photographer as well!
I'm glad you found this, Sebs. You need to hear a new original (another AJ & Toby Gad collaboration), "Bad Valentine." 💜
Nice to see you back Sebs. Angelina’s been quite busy in your absence.
A similar mind-blowingly good video is Angelina performing at the *Nobel Peace prize celebration* back in December.
You owe it to yourself and your daughters to react to James Thiel’s beautifully crafted video that provides needed context to *Narges Mohammadi, the 2023 recipient of the Nobel Peace prize.*
Narges has been *separated from her children,* a twin boy and girl, for *nine YEARS* while serving time in an Iranian prison for protesting human rights violations by the government of Iran.
There is so much to understand about Narges’ plight and it is all presented beautifully and succinctly by James in this masterpiece video.
Angelina’s performance at the end of the video is a heartfelt masterpiece too - quite possibly her best performance EVER!
Here’s the link:

i hope and even pray a boy will not hurt her
Il grande fiume che è Angelina deve ritornare nel suo alveo naturale che è l'Europa.Qui l'amiamo e l'ameremo sempre.
So Beautiful done by Angelina!👌🔥💎🔥❤️
Those us that love Agelina's voice, prefer a basic or acoustic performance to enjoy her voice. But I understand that to grow in this industry she need to do more pop style versions. At least, by now, she do both and we can enjoy her wonderful voice in more purer way.
Is there anything she can’t sing? I’ve listened to her on and off for years. I love, love her voice. No one can copy her.
Have to say walking with this tall young lady you better have your "speed walkers" on your feet....damn..... Two great videos and thanks to Sebs for doing both...nice to see you back. Have listened to Beyonce's cover and though very nice, this is the next level of a vocal master right here...Thanks to Toby Gad for having the musical intelligence to invite Angelina for the re-makes of these songs from him....smart guy!!! Cheers Sebs....stay well.
Beyonce can only dream of singing like Angelina Jordan
Nobody brings out emotions like Angelina 😍
❤️❤️❤️❤️👣 she is magnificent. Yes, I believe she is saying Don't be a boy, be a man.
Caro amico, Angelina è commovente.Voce unica e bellissima.A 18 anni è super star.Assolutamente più grande di questo pianeta.Go, Angelina.
Wonderful reaction, with both versions - popular music & fine art.
She looks like a goddess in the church version. Probably the most beautiful I've seen her. 👍🏻
I think she feels more comfortable doing a live version rather than a commercial video! Live she is a league of her own.
When you can sing like that and deliver in such an easy manner, then you are a fantastic singer! ❤😊
Angel-ina has impeccable vocal artistry that goes unmatched. Period. ❤ Thank you for your lovely reaction. ❤
The church version is phenomenal. Masterpiece! 🤯👣🧡🙌❣️
Despite all my resistance Angelina is making me love this song.
He's 81, I'm 70, married 51 years, we love this song! I can't imagine being without him! This song is perfect!
Shes 🔥 as always
I actually prefer the version they did in the cathedral. Angelina, Toby Gad(the co writer of the song) on piano, and an excellent cello player.
Beautiful. I have so much admiration for Angelina and she is so breathtaking it touches your soul. ❤
Yeah bro. I'm glad you did both 👍🏻♥️
I agree with you Sebs, the 2nd video in the church is my favorite version. Angelina, a mic & a couple of great musicians is what I want to see & her vocals a just impeccable.
❤❤❤Love Angelina❤❤❤
I don't really know why AJ decided to do her own YT version when the Radio Diaries is to die for.
Developing artistic expression. Reminds me of Coldplay in their first video to the song “Yellow,”
❤😮😊I believe this an awesome opportunity to enjoy great great vocals and music and there's another version 😮😊❤
Angelina, what a gorgeous voice, every word is a world and her ton, wooooooooow 👑♥️🌹💫
Una sola parola FENOMENO.
The music video: beautifully done. The church performance: MASTERCLASS in every aspect: The setting. The production. The acoustics. The ambience. The arrangement. The instrumentation. And sailing majestically above everything else, the voice and vocal mastery above and beyond anything achievable by any other artist on the planet.
They’ve released another version still of apparently a rehearsal in the church with Angelina singing a cappella the first part and hearing the reverb from the rafters! A must see and hear!
She is 18 years!
Check out the version that begins acapella.
😀😀😀😀😀
Please play her new documentary by ANGELINA....TEN YEARS IN THE.MAKING

Hi, I love Angelina Jordan. She is extraordinary interpreter. Amazing !
Please, I have a suggestion to you. Listen Gabriel Henrique singing STAND UP with Coral Black to Black. He’s from Brazil. He sang of the American Got Talent too.
Ya, the church version drops the drums and finger-snapping, making you listen to the words-very powerful stuff. Actually, I think Angelina is at her best with just two instruments. Piano and a Guitar or, in this case, Piano and Chello{whoever came up with the Chello is a genius)
Yup so different. It's gorgeous. Welcome back to AJ 🥰
Welcome back to Angelina, Sebs! Great double header! If you want to go back a bit, I recommend AJ's Suspicious Minds cover and her original Now I'm the Fool off her Old Enough EP. AJ also did an updated cover of I Have Nothing (Whitney Houston), a song you did a reaction to when AJ was younger. And of course, her Las Vegas concert has lots of very good fan produced content to check out.
Bad valentin next. ❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you, Sebs, for your pleasant reaction. It's nice that you played the two versions. There are also fan-made videos from her concert in Las Vegas where she shines.
Glad you’ve got back onto the Angelina train!
My last comment about Beth Hart was supposed to be to the song I'd Rather Be Blind! This video is great, so is the stripped down version they did in a church is also Great!
Questa canzone la canta come va cantata in con il cuore,non col naso come Beyoncé....
Thanks so much for the reaction to our angel Angelina..she is simply the best…👍👏
Sebs, excellent reaction !
Great reaction Seb and your comments... please continue to react to Angelina. See her Nobel Peace Prize presentation and Las Vegas concerts. I would to hear from you. I am sure that we miss you too.
Sebs, Both covers of this are glorious but like you I prefer the stripped down version Piano Diaries. That version has no distractions and lets her voice absolutely shine. Thanks to Toby for asking her to sing this cover of his song for his Piano Diaries album. Toby is quoted saying, “Working with Angelina has been nothing short of inspiring. Her ability to channel profound emotion through her voice adds a whole new depth to the song.” They are also working on other songs for AJ. This will be huge for her.
I have just finished going through your AJ playlist again and I see you have missed one of Angelina's most impressive songs. I recommend you listen to Unchained Melody Noble Peace Prize released in Dec 2023. It is beautiful music and definitely in my current top 5 Angelina songs - this could very easily change going forward because just like all AJ Angels, very often the next is the best yet.
Love your channel, Sebs. You always have insightful comments, and thanks for this reaction! Especially doing both versions. AJ and Toby Gad are new collaborators and working on some new originals. I hope your react to more of Angelina Jordan. She's got lots of new music, from her EP Old Enough to new performance videos from her Vegas appearance. You're a good dad to be bringing up girls. They're so lucky, and you're so lucky!
On the piano diaries version when she looks into the camera I feel like she's looking at me. I feel like she's trying to stare into my soul, gives me the creeps. And I would have loved to have had you react to this with Ali, would have loved to have heard her take on this song
I used to listen to your Angelina reactions but since you have not done any, then.
Sebs, thanks for tackling BOTH the music vid and the session with songwriter at piano. I'd actually like to hear her collaborate with Keith Urban on an AJ-version/arrangement of his hit 'Stupid Boy' with his guitar work and vocals too. I know, everyone thinks he's 'just' Country...but I don't agree. That man's a MUSICIAN and singer, and songwriter, and a GREAT collaborator. I really think their voices together on his song would be truly exceptional, and I suspect her re-arrangement would be EPIC. And we'd get to hear him do an even BETTER guitar solo, since he clearly feeds of the magic of his collaborations with others.
This song side A that song side B. Quadruple platinum I'll bet. There's a LOT of young (and older) women out there who've been frustrated, disheartened, and more than a tad upset at just how many of us Stupid Boys they've run into as they continue to hope to make the life they deserve and to truly thrive. Quadruple Platinum. I'll bet my full one dollar limit.
I love all things Angelina. I had mixed feelings about this song when we were being fed all those teases just prior to this release, but I kept listening and doing my usual with Angelina, falling in love, and now this string/piano version in church, and I'm a goner, over the top in love with the song. I expect this to be such a magical year for Angelina. A story-teller supreme, gifted with a voice like none other. Collaborating now with Toby Gad. If only the rest of the world would hit pause and take a moment to listen to this young lady sing...if only.
I would love to get your take on Angelina's performance at the 2023 Nobel Peace Prize Awards where she sang "Unchained Melody": ua-cam.com/video/8LAMPz57Aqw/v-deo.html
The best performance of her life, so far.
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
There's another version that she did at Hotel Cafe in Hollywood with Toby Gad, plus an all new original called Bad Valentine, you think IIWAB was great.....wait.
🥰
