Angelina Jordan Summertime - Finals - Norways Got Talent
Join me in watching Angelina Jordan's winning performance on Norway's Got Talent as she wows the audience at just eight years old! This is the performance that stole the show and captured everyone's hearts. It was truly EPIC.
Important note: Something happened with the timing of some of the notes I added within the video... it's pretty wonky in a couple places, sorry! The note about the judges reaction should be at the end and the note about the keyboard pressing wrong keys should be aligned with when I'm playing the virtual keyboard. Ugh...I appreciate your understanding.

SORRY since something happened with the timing of some of the text inserts on the video 😞 and it's really funky. The comment about watching the judges reaction comes towards the beginning but applies near the very end. The comment about the keyboard also occurs early and applies later when I was using the virtual keyboard and kept clicking the mouse funny (I guess it's hard to play the keyboard on the computer with a mouse lol)

Remember, English is not Angelina's first language. Amazing.
That note she hits on “your daddy’s rich” is my favorite note of all time. I’ve listened to it hundreds of times over the years. So grateful you ran it back so many times, thanks. This was spellbinding, she performs this song at 10 with an orchestra and it’s just as incredible and completely sends me on a journey. Thansk for all your amazing input, I’ve learned so much
mercury And my second favorite is in the bridge of Easy On Me (about 3/4 in) when she sings"probably doesn't even SHOW". Nah, that "SHOW" is probably my favorite! ;-)
Well said....my thoughts as well!
It's called 'blue note'. 😊
In jazz and blues, a blue note is a note that-for expressive purposes-is sung or played at a slightly different pitch from standard.
^ As the kids say, "Facts". Somehow this young she knew that less is more and didn't overdo or repeat that slide up on "daddy". She gives you just a taste of the divine sound that she can make and leaves you wanting more. Melts me everytime I hear it.
I went and listened to it like 10 times in a row after I stopped recording 😁😁
This might interest you. She was a big fan of Lous Armstrong at this point. In fact her grandma had a picture of him on the sign she waves to encourage her. Secondly there is very interesting footage before this performance. Alot of people are in a room around a big table and Angelina is stood uncomfortable at the head of the table squirming around about like an 8 year old as they discuss it. Then in a pause in the conversation she turns to the musician who will accompany her and tells him how and where he should come in. The look on everybody's face as this tiny child solves the problem in one tiny little sentence. Its like she morphed before their eyes into something completely different. I think it was around then musicians started affectionately calling her the Boss.
The boss is always at the head of the table. This is important to know, especially when he takes the form of an eight-year-old 😉
I seen an interview with the trumpet player. He said he always plays at a 45 degree angle away from angelina cuz she hears any little flaw and stares over at him. He said he has never been so intimidated by a short little 8 year old girl in his life like Angelina. It was pretty funny when we seen her stare over towards him when she heard something wrong ?🤣😂
I knew she was following the Ella Fitzgerald version, which I know very well, so I was expecting that high note on "your daddy's rich", but what I wasn't expecting was how stunningly smooth and beautiful it was! How is that note so clear and satisfying? Ella also goes there but it isn't the same. Like you and many others, I could listen to that note all day. It is one of the most sublime things I've ever heard.
Humility comes from wisdom. Angelina has always been wise beyond her years.
Yes. It shows up in her originals from the 1st one. She is "tapped" into something that we call an "old soul".
I can’t wait for you to see her do this same song in a few years with the same orchestra that she performed the recent Nobel with. She slows it down. Gorgeous. Angelina shines even more with the pace slowed.
Love your picking up on her humility, which continues to this day. It's quite remarkable that someone who is so phenomenally talented, with 10 years of people telling her that, is still a decent, humble, loving, kind, down-to-earth human being. And I think she always will be.
Thanks but to me that's one of the most important things. Did you catch the after party?
Thank you for your continued support of Angelina. I appreciate your thoughtful commentary
❤
"I dream of summer's that never end.!!!" - Miss. Angelina Jordan "Magical Jazz Vocalist" - Super Outstanding Music Hosting - Aron - We Thank U -
Glad you liked this one as much as I did. The line (Oh your daddy's rich) you identified as "epic" is the one that makes my heart stop every time I hear it. On the first syllable of "daddy" she ends the note with beautiful vibrato and then does an extremely clean trill on the second syllable. Ykes ... I mean, epic.
Well, that was one hellova reaction and commentary! This performance to me has always been much more than meets the eyes and ears! The "trill" effect you described was unique to this vocal alone. I did not hear it again in subsequent performances. Anyway, thanks for a very complete breakdown of the many aspects of one of the best of Angelina's early works of art. It will stand on its own for many years to come...a mini classic in its own right.
Thank you for your beautiful and intelligent reaction, Aron. It's impossible not to love this unique concentration of humility, simplicity, innocence, friendliness and talent. Every time, with her voice, Angelina leaves you with a wonderful feeling of satisfaction and tenderness that accompanies you too after listening to her. I infinitely adore her voice and her slow and emotional arrangements. This girl's passion and talent are simply unreal, it's as if she uses the lines of the pentagram to create a new and wonderful musical texture, every time she sings.💛🧡❤
she has a very unique vibrato, some experts tried to explain; but it seems hard to explain
Hi ARon, Shes trying to do a southern accent on cotton by saying curtan is sigh instead of cotton is so high. Shes a genius. brilliant !
What you've heard is INCREDIBLE. But you ain't heard nothin yet from Angelina. Buckle up, it's goin to be a bumpy night.
Naw I'm done for the night 😜. Did you see the link to the after party?
Aaron, The stars aligned when an insightful jazz musician and a prodigy young jazz singer meet in an appreciation of great artistry and music. Ms. Jordan is in a lane all her own. ♾Rb
Thanks so much. Did you see the after party?
@@A-AronReacts Yes Sir, I'll be watching all of your productions. ♾Rb
@@RichardBourne❤❤❤
Dude, I hope you react to everything thats comes out of Angelinas mouth. Your reactions are super dope. Great job A-Aron. 👍♥️
Her talent is OUTRAGEOUS!! To pick something very operatic as a closer was a baller choice for her. This is where she shows you what kind of a singer she is. The notes she's hitting and how she chooses to hit them is absolutely EPIC!!!
A-Aron, thanks for another entertaining reaction and commentary. I greatly appreciate your musical knowledge and using it to educate your audience. Angelina got 46% of the votes from the top TEN acts. Everyone who competed in this season of Norway's Got Talent has the honor of finishing behind, in my opinion, the greatest child vocalist of all time. The only things which exceed Angelina's musical talents, are her humility and empathy. She provided me HOPE when I needed it most in my life. Her voice has a positive physical affect on me, like it is hugging my soul.
Amazing. Did you see the after party?
Amazing reaction again, A-Aron. I really appreciate your takes and the additional information you provide. Great stuff! Much love and respect from Norway ♥♥♥♥♥
Can’t wait until you hear her 10 years 😊old version, slowed down with a full orchestra
and especially being the KORK orchestra in which she performs with a few other times along her journey ...
I'll be there soon enough. Thank you! Did you see the after party?
Big time. 🔥🔥
Her voice is so crystal clear, smooth, strong and crisp 😢
Agreed! Did you see the link to the after party?
Louis Armstrong intervals in AJ's vibrato here, for sure. Her vibrato control at 8 is completely insane. With the trumpet, this to me is pure Louis coming out of a little girl. Again -- insane.
She was FEELING the emotions during "...your daddy's rich...." Also my favorite part of this performance. As for "stage presence", I've seen so many solo vocalists on variety shows like The Ed Sullivan Show, The Perry Como Show, The Dean Martin Show, The Andy Williams Show, etc. who simply stand behind a microphone and sing their hearts out without moving all around. One commenter perfectly described them as being "spotlight singers." Oh, and she's saying "curtain", perhaps because she wasn't at all familiar with how cotton grows at 8 years old (just my "guess"). 🤔
notice her musical awareness. She looks over at the Trumpet player
Thank you for including the background of the songs. It really adds to the appreciation of the song.
If you think the conversation between Angelina and the trumpet was so good, check out her conversation with the saxophone in Driving Home For Christmas.
AS you watch her you will see her voice and skill level advance at astonishing speed.
Yummy 😮😊🎉❤
Thank God her equally prodigious grandmother, Mery Zamani, was a jazz loving fanatic and realized that
she had passed this love onto her granddaughter when she was a baby.
Remember, these shows have a time limit. 😎
Yes of course. I've done many auditions before (though never singing). But I appreciate the reminder nevertheless 😄
Hi Aron, I never understood people who are die hard fans for musicians such as Elvis ?
Until i stumbled across Angelina jordan.
Thank you for your reaction. 😊
Beautiful ❤❤
Just think this is HER arrangement, how amazing is that ?
Yeah agreed. I did comment on how amazing that is...and I believe her choices were absolutely brilliant
Aron, This is not just a quick road trip but it is a cross-country journey. The rabbit hole is deep and it looks like you are in for the long haul. This is just the beginning of Angelina's introduction to the whole world.
Crap, I had better get to the store and buy some cross country running shoes!
Like one of the judge said she is music.
Yep! Did you see the after party?
Smart move! This is an industry and reactors pick up on this but most are changed inside by here so, understand that as well. This is a "World changer" to many or most.
You are right about the trumpet player doing his intro up in front of the stage. You can see AJ shoot a look across the stage just before the start of the second verse. I believe that she is making sure that the trumpet player is back in place and ready to come in on his fills. She is just such a pro even at 8 years old.
Yeah I commented on that in the after party...did you catch that?
@@A-AronReacts Nope. Seems kinda weird to make 2 reaction videos to the same song.
@supasoulproductions thanks. No I don't think so. This one is deeper and more for those that want it. Some want up to a certain amount of commentary but others have told me "I didn't want it to end" and want more depth. However, I just need to get (way) better at making the main way even shorter. I have a lot to improve for sure and will keep doing so 😄. Thanks again
My friend I know I told you to stick around but you stayed to long you went down the rabbit hole you are an angel now. you won't be able to stop. You will learn a lot from her if you let yourself she knows things the rest of us don't understand.
Thanks so much. Did you see the link to the after party?
You might want to consider that you've watched only half a dozen of her videos . Most of us Angels have been watching her for years. She gets excited, but its easy for most people to misconstrue excitement for nerves. Remember, that she's been filmed by her family from birth and after that whoever. By 6 she'd been in front of a camera more than most people have their entire lives. For her, performing front of an audience is no big deal
Fair. I'm happy to be wrong but I'm convinced that she was nervous during that recording
@@A-AronReacts I agree with you. Here's where I think is the disconnect: She never gets nervous when she PERFORMS; when she's ON STAGE. When you saw her recording IWHN, it was her first time in the STUDIO. We could see she was nervous (and also excited). And we could hear the nervous laughter when she spoke later. But she wasn't performing, or on stage. (BTW, there's another recording of her singing the same song, but on a different day. We don't see the nerves there.) So it boils down to studio first-time vs countless performances (be it shopping malls before NGT, 40k people in Seoul at age 11 or millions watching AGT). Really apples and oranges. Just as a final note: Angelina has been quoted more than once (as recently as February in her "!0 years" video) as saying she never is nervous when she performs. She has also said that the stage is her happy place and she loves to sing. She laughs at the notion of being scared performing in front of so many people because it's all so much fun! (her words)
@@103mrg It doesn't matter but I still think what you (and A-Aron) are commenting on is not really "nervousness" but simply her excitement and keenness (is that a word?) to get on with it... the same feeling she described in her recent "10 years in the making" documentary about the "waitening" ( :) ) period just before her Vegas show...
@@geoffreynorth9046 I'm with you... it looked like excitement and eagerness to me.
@@devon7008 "eagerness" is the word I was struggling to bring to mind ! :)
I loved this detailed breakdown. You know a thing or two about music and you provide more detailed musical insight than other channels. That's why I subscribed to your channel.
A 25 minute long analysis video is more than enough. Your efforts are well appreciated.
I'm looking forward to hearing your thoughts on Angelina's other performances.
When she sings the first verse, she's saying, "This is how it's done". Then, when she sang the first verse again, she's saying, "And this is how I do it". She now 'owns' that song. I would love for her to arrange and perform the entire song but life is short and she has so much to keep her busy.
Interesting perspective. See to me, I think it was more (just my opinion)... I think she sat down and mapped out every aspect of the entire arrangement. And that included what EMOTION she wanted to project at which points. I like your thought process but to me it sounds more arrogant than she would go for
NGT is a contest. I thought the whole reason for being on the show was for her to show her talent to be better than the competition. If showing off your natural gifts to the fullest is arrogant, so be it.@@AaronHillyer
@@RaymondCore I think the point is she is showing off the music to its best effect, rather than showing off her ability to sing it. At this point she knew, in her own words, that "my music was bigger than me" (from 10 Years in the Making).
You're saying that at a talent contest, AJ is not showing off her ability to sing but the winner is the one who is showing off the music to its best effect? We must have different definitions or either 'talent' or 'contest'. What music was she showing off when she sang acapella?
Angelina was only given vocal lessons on how to protect her voice and breath control because her very first voice teacher told her parents not to interfere with a god given tone and vibrato instead she was given flute violin piano and guitar lessons. I have always thought that has influenced how she chooses to do runs. Which also ties in with the Holiday influence as she zlso tried to use her voice like a musical instrument.
Gänsehaut Gänsehaut Gänsehaut immer 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
Great Reaction and Analysis 👍🙏👣💯😎
Thanks so much! Did you see the after party?
I have that as a Db, but what makes it even more amazing is how she tips her head back and closes her eyes. She just “feels” the music. Also, I hope you watched to the end where they announce the winner.
Great reaction & commentary, I really enjoy your deep dives. Everything I was going to say about this performance has already been said by previous commenters, so instead, I will mention the trumpet player. I believe he is just a kid himself, I would guess late teens, maybe early 20's who played for her several times when she was 8-9. I don't think he is a "seasoned pro" as you stated, but a very talented young man that I imagine is a seasoned pro by now, 10 years later. I love your in depth videos, so please don't listen to those that say you are doing too much, most "Angels" love it. The next one, What a Difference a Day Makes, is my favorite "Baby Angelina" video ever because she out does Dinah Washington's Grammy winning performance at 8 yo.
Something you'll notice, especially in her younger performances, is that she seems to instinctively make eye contact with the primary instrumentalist, as in I'll put a spell on you. In this instance she and the trumpet are listening and interacting exquisite! She doesn't perform like this in her own little bubble. She's connected to every part of the music!
She does not need to move around- her voice is. And now you listen instead of looking at her move around.
Angelina is amazing!
man, I love watching AJ. Best part of my day is catching up on new AJ vids👍
Nice! Did you catch the after party?
Well now you have to react to "FEELING GOOD", 😂 IT will blow 🌬️ your socks 🧦 off. 👍 Best regards from Norway 🇳🇴
If you see videos of her Vegas concert you will see how her stage presence has improved considerably. Obviously it’s now 10 years later.
I loved Angelina's voice and she was sweet.
Now I love her even more because her voice is better and better. She is the best .❤❤❤
Great reaction!! Thanks 👍🏻 check out her with a full ocheastra when she was 10y old when she inteprets the same song ‚summertime‘. The next one song after this is ‚what a difference a day makes‘ 8yrs old 😉 Wish you a wonderful week.
Your my favorite reactor now and next new reaction for Angeline at 8 if you want iT may be : " Fly me to the Moon " at the show The View in USA just after she won NGT or : " What a difference a Day Make" also after NGT but outside in a Summer Festival in Oslo
There's more, a lot more to come! You'll be astonished and jaw dropped with each new video.
Thanks..single dad here so that £10.00 means something..I truly truly appreciate your reactions 🙏
Wow thanks so much...you rock!
Great reaction to our barefoot princess the leap between her first 2 performances and her last 2 were epic by the age of 9 i put a spell on you she i believe is at the top of her game there are many performances between 8 and 10 that are awesome check out all of her work there are probably 20 covers between 8 and 12 that are must sees. Enjoy your journey wild bill love your insight and style wild bill
Looking forward to it!
A magnificent performance by our Barefoot Princess. Beautiful 😊♥👣
Outstanding
Agreed! Thank you
Angelina does show us how much she likes singing!
I think her stage presence is perfect. Like most jazz artists, she is into the music, and IT dictates what she is doing on stage. I really hate choreographed performances; making a lot out of nothing. If the music makes you go bananas, it's cool, but if choreography tells you to do it, it's just stupid.
Yes sir! Just W🥰W..... Thank you to your great reaction. ✌️
Thank you so much
The control and technique Angelina has at this age is astounding. Another reactor listening to I Put A Spell On You pointed out that Angelina at one point was using a minor-third interval vibrato on a single phrase. Also, I've thought for a while that her insane use of dynamics is a secret key to the emotional impact her singing has. Great reaction!

p.s. I will finish comment under the Expanded content / Bonus video...
Ohh, almost forgot... A-Aron, I do believe Angelina's 'next stop' (and hopefully yours too) was another truly remarkable performance at age 8 in front of an outdoor audience, recorded for a Norwegian Television Station who produced a show each year, with Angelina returning for the final year of its production, 8 years after her first appearance, at age 16, in 2022. She participated at least one year in between too. Here is the 8yo performance you Must see . . .

You will find that she she is constantly experimenting with her voice throughout her development. This continues to this day. I love it because you never know what to expect even in songs that she has done many times in performance.
Aaron, you are a perfect example of what happens to someone when they listen to her sing. She has brought out your absolute best. And it's absolutely amazing that you are critiquing an eight year old girl. In regards to the 'nervousness' conversation, it is impossible for anyone to sing 'Gloomy Sunday (at 7 years old); 'I'm A Fool To Want You' (A CAPPELLA!); 'Bang Bang' (dressed like a Princess); and 'Summertime' (in the style of Ella Fitzgerald), the way she did and be nervous even for a moment. I believe you are equating the fact she MUST have been nervous and then graduated to being more confident as the Show continued song after song because the progression sounded normal. Well, you've already determined she was not normal and let me add this little tidbit; she asked her mom if she could sing on Norway's Got Talent when she was "4 years old!". Her mom told her they don't accept children until they are at least 7 years old. LOOK BACK AT THE GLOOMY SUNDAY VIDEO AND WATCH HER ENTER THE STAGE. SHE WAS READY! AND LOOK AT THE WAY SHE HANDLED THE MIKE WHEN SHE SANG. When asked about the subject she replied by saying she is most comfortable in her life when she is on stage singing for people.
Lastly, Aaron, the stage presence matter is interesting. I know what you are suggesting and as you watch her mature I'll be interested to hear what your opinions will be. But, I will say this: She commands the stage with her voice. Listeners are so enthralled with the tone of her voice and the artistry she puts into everything she sings, any movement that distracts the listener from listening to every note is not at all appropriate. Remember, Aaron, as soon as she starts to sing she takes all of us into her world and we don't come out of it until she finishes singing to us the story of the song. And, as you suggested, by the time she was done singing 'Summertime' people fell in love with her and people in the music industry were in total awe of what she was capable of doing. She was truly being recognized as a bona fide superstar in the making.
Aaron, I know I've said this before, but I must repeat it again: I CANNOT WAIT TILL YOU HEAR HER SING 'WHAT A DIFFERENCE A DAY MAKES' (Dinah Washington) AT AN OUTDOOR EVENT WITH THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE IN ATTENDANCE. It occurred soon after she won Norway's Got Talent.
Thanks so much. In my gloomy Sunday reaction I indicated she didn't seem nervous. But in the I who have nothing performance in the studio, I still believe she was nervous. That's the progression from being (a little bit nervous) to not being nervous to being comfortable to being confident. My belief has nothing to do with being stubborn or anything like that....it has to do with reading her body language and i really do believe she was nervous in that. But I agree with you on Gloomy Sunday....to a point. She wasn't nervous but she definitely didn't have the same level of confidence as she did with Summertime.
On stage presence, no doubt she commands the stage. However, much more can be done. Much much more can be done (at least from here). She does command attention and rightfully so. Won't deny that at all. But this isn't a criticism...just room for growth
@@A-AronReacts Aaron, appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts with me. Yes, it will be impossible for you to reply and even read many of the "thousands" of comments you will be receiving on a steady basis. I did a podcast with the folks from 'Wrapped In A Warm Blanket' and it got about 150+ comments. I read them all and replied to each one of them and I was exhausted. So I can imagine what happens to you when you wake up in the morning and see another thousand or so comments appear!
In regards to the 'I Who Have Nothing' video (when she was 6), could we replace nervousness with anxiousness? Aaron, I treasure your observations and I believe I certainly am not alone in that regard.
Thanks again! It is exhausting but....
I'm new and on a new journey. And I'm here to SERVE so I have a lot to learn. It takes work. And the best way to learn is to listen to what is and isn't working, what questions people have, what concerns, what they want to hear, etc. And at this point, I believe the only way to do that is by reading and responding to comments. Unfortunately, it's not sustainable though and have to already pull back.
As far as anxious versus nervous, you made me actually go "hmmm" and so I consulted chat gpt and it spit this out:
"Anxious" and "nervous" are often used interchangeably, but they have slightly different connotations:Anxious typically refers to a feeling of worry, unease, or nervousness about an imminent event or something with an uncertain outcome. Anxiety can also be a clinical diagnosis where the feeling becomes excessive, persistent, and can interfere with daily activities.Nervous is more commonly used to describe a transient state of being on edge or jittery, often about a specific event that’s close at hand, like giving a speech or attending an interview.So, while both terms relate to reactions to stress, "anxious" might suggest a deeper, more prolonged, or more psychological aspect, whereas "nervous" is often more about immediate and situational reactions.

So based on the above, I do feel it is more fleeting and situational. That said, I think nervous is appropriate
She sang this with the orchestra, KORK, 2 years later...you should compare and contrast....vibrato reaches the heights of sophistication
Can tell you are impacted the same way I am but you explain what she does so much better, thanks for the education 😊
The trumpet player was the only one she knew when she met the band for I Put A Spell On You at 9
Sublime singing and reaction ❤
Please keep interrupting the video and give your reaction and information. People who want to hear the whole video uninterrupted should listen to the original. Your insights is making the difference. You are doing great.
Thanks!
Thanks so much. Did you see the link to the after party?
I didn’t. I’ll look now
👍
YOU COULD CRY ,COULD YOU ? SO,A I
Here is Angelina singing the full version of Summertime in rehearsal (8 yrs old): ua-cam.com/video/l1VTpgR3vuA/v-deo.html
Thanks so much. Did you see the link to the after party?
@@A-AronReacts Yes :)
robert Have you seen this little-known performance where she sings "the missing verse"?I think is was just after NGT. I love how she pronounces "mawnin' (morning)! Where does she learn that stuff?? ua-cam.com/video/jU_BkC9L7Q0/v-deo.html
Yeappp !... She's a Real Real Goddess ! ...
You HAVE TO see her rehearsal for Summertime prior to this - she signals to the guy that plays the horn how she wants him to proceed
Pretty sure I reacted to that one
Wow great reaction to this
Thanks so much
Such a thoughtful reaction! You touch on so many elements that probably are even more meaningful than you can imagine. Angelina worked on the arrangement for this with the musicians, she did indeed have a conversation with the trumpet player! Angelina's grandma recorded a part of that session. ua-cam.com/video/BSm-oMgVCo8/v-deo.html
As for he vocal trill, perhaps she was influenced by Louis Armstrong - he really knows his way around a trill!
As for the context of this rendition. Here we are in 2014, Angelina started to piece together the story that she would publish in 2015. She had met a poor orphan girl in 2012, trying to make a living on the cold wet streets. Angelina got to understand how privileged she was to have a father and mother and to be part of a wealthy family. Her sister Juliette was a new born at the time of the story, this song is like it's being sung to her, as she was often crying...
There is an incredible journey for you to make, this song got me completely hooked, the next song simply blew me away, in June 2014 she sang at a festival set amongst a large crowd. Angelina owned the stage, giving Diana Washington a run for her money with a rendition of What a difference a day makes ua-cam.com/video/XHnkVextoQw/v-deo.html
Great one again A-Aron 👍 Now u see the progression in these 4 songs she did, that is just incredible❤ And to think she get's better and better 😊 She did 2 other performances at this age that also would surprise you my friend , She did * Fly me to the moon * at The View in the US ua-cam.com/video/nBGMQ9Kx9iI/v-deo.htmlsi=3elpSlDFo3J09X9P that is amazing 🥰 and then What difference a day makes * at an out door concert in Norway called All sang på grensen *Sing along at the border ) ua-cam.com/video/XHnkVextoQw/v-deo.htmlsi=t6-LLEw69DSqkZnk To see this beautiful little girl in the middle off the crowd on the stage , so freaking cute ❤ This one was before she went one The View i think 😋 here is a little bonus an mash up with Dinah Washington .....that is amazing as well 🥰 ua-cam.com/video/BM87RyQQWcQ/v-deo.htmlsi=EB53evpOLdXYK4e0 Have a good one my friend , keep up the good work, take care an stay safe 😊😋
🥰
😀😀😀😀😀
the next song you should react to is her performance at an open air concert about 1 month after winning NGT of what a difference a day makes . I opened 2 screens one with Angelina and the other with Dinah Washington and played verse for verse, it was incredible how much alike they sounded
“Your da-ddy’s rich” sounds like four syllables stretched as four dotted notes over 6/8. I’m struggling with just timing the entrance to the phrase and I certainly didn’t play around with tuplets and scales at that age.
I didn't time it precisely. You could be write but to me it felt looser...just swinging. I'll pay attention to that on my next listen
@@A-AronReacts no worries, I’m just adding to your point, that it’s just unfathomable when a kid naturally executes what many trained adults struggles with. Since it is the artist that actually makes it swing, not the notes on a score, just like blue notes aren’t as tasteful at an exact chromatic pitch.
There is a video of Angelina and the band rehearsing summertime for NGT and she is instructing the band how she want's this to be played respectfully of course. As for the nervousness you say in her first video, you have not seen enough of her video's, I would say excitement having found her voice. but whatever. See you in the next one.
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Wonderful reaction again: did you see how at 16' 30" into your video Angelina mouths quietly "Don't you say no", which is Louis Armstrong's line in the duet with Ella Fitzgerald...? I have never known her to this before - so interesting that she did it here..
Ah that's what she said. I did comment on that In the after party. Look at the pinned post for the link
@@A-AronReacts I still wonder why she did that... you might think "timing" but I don't recall her ever doing anything similar before... and she has had amazing timing from an incredible early age
@@A-AronReacts you might enjoy this little clip of Angelina rehearsing Summertime at around the same age: ua-cam.com/video/l1VTpgR3vuA/v-deo.html
Yeah no idea either.. that's pretty much how I ended my reaction on that one...not sure.. actually since I was reacting live, I also wasn't exactly sure what she said
Her performance is indeed greatly based on the well known version of Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong. It is a short song, but to do it completely, it would be too long for a "Got Talent"-show. So they skipped the second verse, which was sung by Mister Armstrong. And reduced the intro trumpet solo to the first line. The middle part in the original from Ella and Louis was also in another key. Angelina would have had to sing in a very low register. She actually did that once (recorded) in Seoul (South Korea). Started in A-minor (Unlike this one, which was in B-minor and not E-minor!) ua-cam.com/video/bfJ5an-KTEg/v-deo.html and It is incredible how low she can sing actually. The Seoul performance is another good example of that.
Loved your comment and extra information! The second "Oh your daddy's rich" (with the ninth note of the scale for dad-...) I also consider epic. It's beautiful to see she raises her shoulders to sing it extra gentle! As if she holds and rocks a baby and really sings to it. It is so moving and melancholic! It must have been a miracle to watch her on stage for those who were there!
Danke!
Thank YOU!
@@A-AronReacts you‘re welcome. Great reaction!! Thanks 👍🏻 check out her with a full ocheastra when she was 10y old when she inteprets the same song ‚summertime‘. The next one song after this is ‚what a difference a day makes‘ 8yrs old 😉 Wish you a wonderful week.
Sehr gut bastel ❤❤❤ wild bill Worcester mass danke.
Epic indeed! 🤯👣🔥🧡🙌❣️
👣Angelina did the full version of this song in a 3 songs performance during a festival later this year (so still 8).
www.youtube.com/watch?v=jU_BkC9L7 This link also include all 3 songs, "Summertime", "Bang bang" (also full version) and "Fly Me To The Moon". Certainly one to enjoy on your own time. I was recorded by Angelina`s grandmother, Mery Zamani, the greatest fan and mentor for Angelina.
Other performances at 8 years old: "What a difference A Day Make", "At Last", "I`ll Be There", "What A Wonderful World" (sung at "Save the Children`s piece prize party").
I do hope you`ll be abel to go trough this list and react to them, as they are all such amazingly great performances. She did of course also give us a few wonderfully performed Christmas songs during desember, and even a 3 songs EP. 👣 🤗
The story of Porgy and Bess is quite interesting. Gerswin wrote it for black actors and singers. But there were non. And the public was usually white. Would they come ? Who would take risk to produce it ? So it took many years, 1927 to 1935, between the writing and the first performance.
This was a magnificent reaction to a magnificent performance! You have a new subscriber!
Thanks so much
Is it fair to say we can welcome you to the fan club A-Aron? She's amazing isn't she? Love your reaction great vid bud, thankyou!
After over 80 reactions, I'd say so 😁
@@A-AronReacts haha! I'm slowly getting through them, love that you went down the rabbit hole, I did this a year ago but it's so good hearing a trained ear's perspective! Thanks again!
It's been a TREMENDOUS amount of fun (some work but meh, more fun)
@@AaronHillyer Appreciate you!
It would be fascinating to see you use your vocal pitch analysis tools for this performance.
Actually I did a little in the background to find the key. But my computer isn't very powerful and running a video with two recordings (one for me, one for screen) with external mic, external webcam is making it pretty loaded so I don't like to keep that open because it's already made my mic fail on a reaction I had to COMPLETELY scrap because it was competing for resources. I can record it separately if you'd like?
@@A-AronReactsThat's understandable. She leans in to her heavy vibrato in this performance, so you might find a pitch analysis fascinating.
@@A-AronReacts . I just watched this video and thought of you.
Wings of Pegasus channel does pitch analysis on the Cowardly Lion of Wizard of Oz vocal performance.
Lots of fun.

For You😇🌺 Arranging “Summertime” for NGT at 8
m.ua-cam.com/video/BSm-oMgVCo8/v-deo.html
Actually, that was after she won the competition. You can't see her teeth very well in that video, but in this other one from the same session (singing "At Last") you can see that her teeth are a little more grown in than when she won NGT. ua-cam.com/video/hQIuzhNbzNI/v-deo.html

Interesting you mention her diction of the word cotton. I recollect a story that she was struggling with that word and therefor sought advice regarding pronounciation. At 8! Being totallly committed. And successful!
And remember, she is singing in English, her native language is Norwegen
