"Forgive me for all that I am". Her family have rearranged their lives around Angelina's career because they recognise her extraordinary talent. Angelina understands this and realises the sacrifices they have made, and expresses her gratitude in this remarkable song. Such awareness in a 12-year-old is incredible.
Good afternoon, I always appreciate your reactions to Angelina. You are one of only a few reactors I've listened to since you started this rabbit hole journey. Thank you for what you do, keep up the good work. 👏👏👏 💯🔥
Can't believe she wrote this at 12 years old. There has never been before and there will never be again anyone like Angelina Jordan!!!! Heaven broke the mold after she popped out.
In this talk show Angelina gave an interview before her performance in which she was asked after Angelina talked about her life if she felt like a 12 year old girl. Angelina's answer " Only when I look in my passport " 😅😅😅😅 👣💯 *2* 💯👣
We, her adoring fans are called Angels because of a line from this song - "Surround me with angels, don't let them go. Please let my shelter, for ever hold". We are here for you ❣️
Thanks for another wonderful reaction, Jess. Impossible not to love this concentrate of humility, simplicity, innocence, sympathy and talent. Angelina every time, with her voice, leaves you with a wonderful feeling of contentment and tenderness that accompanies you even after, I love her voice. This girl's passion and talent is just amazing, her phrasing, backed by her wonderful use of breath and her peculiar jazz tone, always fascinates me and gives me chills every time, despite the fact that I has listened to her hundreds of times. 💛🧡❤
Awesome reaction Jesse! Angelina said this song was about a strong love that protects you. The lyric, "Forgive me for all that I am" demonstrates her awareness that her fame has placed a huge burden on her family and those close to her.
She don'tvcarry herself like a 13 year old. She sing bettervthan any 12 year old. And in the interview just before she went on stage she said she only felt like 12 year old when she looked in her passport. 😃 I'm not alone to claim that she is a musical genius. Thanks for all your great reactions. 👍❤️
On that Skavlan talk show, in the interview before singing, Fredrik Skavlan tells her that many people think she is older, and he asks her if she feels 12 years old and she replies "I don't feel like a 12-year-old girl. years", but that says in the passport. In that interview, she also tells what world she is transported to when she starts singing.
Nice reaction. You bring a different view! I think she wrote this bc she realized what a burden her career will have on her family. She said forgive me for all that I am. So profound for a 12 year old.
In the interview before the performance, she affirmed a Bond movie song sound inspiration. THey asked her if she feels like a 12 yo. She said she feels 12 when she looks at her passport. LOL. They also asked about where she is when she sings, and she talks about "that place" full of "light, happiness...." She has said this at least twice before, and I think more, I just can't find all of the interviews I've seen anymore. Anyway, thanks, Jess. Great reaction again. I've missed you. Grandma Ellen, out.
Jess, Angelina knows all too well the pressures that can accompany a successful life in the music industry . . . Elvis, Amy, Whitney, her friend Avicii and more. She presciently sings "surround me with Angels" a year or so before giving that name to her fans (if I'm not mistaken). But its generally understood that the main person this song is dedicated to is Sara Astar. She is not only Angelina's mother but also her Guardian in an all-encompassing sense: "You are my fire when I can’t see you’re the one - watching over me You are my fire" Thank God for Sara Astar. 🙏
In the interview just prior to this performance, Angelina said she only felt 12 when she looked in her passport. She also said this song was inspired by Shirley Bassey and James Bond. She also sang a little bit of ‘Diamonds are forever’. The message is about her family being her shield and her inspiration (you are my fire). The diversity in her originals make me really excited about her upcoming album :-)
@@hans-georgschroter7887 , I also love her song, "Oslo." It doesn't get the attention it deserves. Melodically, it is very interesting and beautiful. Plus, perhaps, a bit prescient.
I noticed your subscribers are growimg! You are one of the top reactors to Angelina. I wanted to share a story about another reactor. He was so excited when he hit 5000 subs. He started to react to Angelina and now has over 70 000. Coincidence? Yours will keep going too. Thanks for the reaction @
Always a great reaction, Jesse! Not as much analysis as usual, but part of that is just how mesmerizing she is. I think her Mom has forgiven her for all that she is! She is literally and figuratively surrounded by angels.
Have you seen how on the recording of Happier (with Ivan on guitar) on the wall behind Angelina there are pictures of angels surrounding a photo of Angelina and a photo of her maternal grandfather...
@Geoffrey North Yes.Only a few reactors comment on her grandfather's photo and even fewer notice (or comment on) the angels. While many angels have made comments about the song being for her grandfather, I hear it as the reverse (although she is the one singing). I feel that grandpa is sick and he knows Angelina is unhappy about that. But he knows he's not going to get better. To change that, he must leave so SHE can be happier. Just my take on it.
@Geoffrey North Yes, it was. I was just giving meaning (my meaning) to the song. "I want you to be happier" (so I'll have to leave) makes more sense to me if grandpa feels badly that AJ is suffering through his illness as well. Of course, this may be absolutely wrong, but it makes sense to me. She has her other grandpa talking to her from the moon in MM. It's a two-way connection. Art is subjective. We interpret it as we do. I'm a grandfather, and I feel like I wouldn't want MY granddaughter to suffer any more through my illness if I were dying. I would feel her sadness and want her to be happier. It's time for me to "leave".Works for me.
Angelina doin' what Angelina do. I'd like to remove a few words from the chorus to create some silence for texture, but it's an enjoyable song, so what do I know? :) Always a pleasure, Jess!
Extraterrestrials, If you have ever questioned whether there are extraterrestrials among us, you now know it to be true, it is the only explanation for this being, Angelina Jordan.
Thank you Jess for getting this request up. Been a while but I appreciate it. Love the reaction and love this original from Angelina. The interview that popped up at the end of the video is quite interesting as well, was part of this show she performed on, talks about why she does not feel like a 12 year old and also talks about Bond (007) influences and such...this would make a great Bond movie song..😁😁. Angelina is "surrounded by Angels" for sure and we all love the person she is. Might have to put some more requests in on Patron, but just remember I am getting old so the sooner you put them up the better....😎😎😎😎
Nice reaction sir. Enjoy your critique and also your singing in your opening bit, it is top notch! Where do you perform, I would check you out! I am wondering why the sound quality of A.J. during playback is not up to par with the quality in the link you provided. Sounds like she is singing from down the hall. Keep up the great work!
Here Angelina chooses not to wear the white dress - here transition into the more grown up persona. Also in this chat show setting she interviewed with confidence. Also, perhaps an insight as to her sense of humour - she wore shoes during the interview - like bears - maybe a pun on her bare feet?
Have you watched Angelina starting at age 18 months, singing two phrases to Whitney Houston’s ‘I’ll Always Love You’ when most children are uttering their first words (someone heard a quote from her mother that much more was sung as she ran to get her phone to record): m.UA-cam.com/watch?v=VJjG68Dfr-8&t=115 1:53 to 2:10 (this is a very brief 15 second home video in the middle of a longer TV interview)
Not sure why but for me the playback had some kind of static sound that goes in and out....maybe others can comment if they heard it also. It is not on the original video.
I heard that - I think I had my mic running a bit too hot from a live stream yesterday and the speakers in my room were just triggering my mic processing. I may have gotten carried away with the volume a little lol

Another great reaction! So glad you are still finding the gems.
We got some great Angel friends
You do a good job of helping me see what I don't understand in performance.
Great performance and breakdown on your part

I really hope that her little sister is working on her own “thing”. She’s not shy.
Her own music is different with a message ,beautiful ,thanks
Absolutely agreed. Great to see her using her platform for good - and not just trying to write a ‘radio hit’ as it were
Great reaction! Interesting! Enthusiastic
and informative.👏
Awesome reaction, God Bless!
Thanks!! God bless as well, love from Canada

Thank you for this 🙏 it’s great to see her pull from her hero’s, while being realistic of the realities of ‘rock and roll’.
@@Beldvlmnt ❤❤❤
Amen. Thank God for Sara Astar.
Barry, thank you very much.

@@GrandmaEllen you are so right, a wonderful tribute and Gift to her hometown and all the people who had supported her as a child 👍💘
This song is so good and sad part nobody hardly ever reacts to it and this could be a James bond movie song
How about a James Bond song by Angelina 🙂💜

I know they are trying to decide who the next James Bond should be, but there should be no discussion on who sings the the next James Bond theme song.
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Yes, constraint/control but a more elaborate bridge towards the end, just like in her Million Miles. Great reaction, great request.

Hey Jess! Chat with ya soon. This song is about and for her mom.
Have you watched Angelina starting at age 18 months, singing two phrases to Whitney Houston’s ‘I’ll Always Love You’ when most children are uttering their first words (someone heard a quote from her mother that much more was sung as she ran to get her phone to record): m.UA-cam.com/watch?v=VJjG68Dfr-8&t=115 1:53 to 2:10 (this is a very brief 15 second home video in the middle of a longer TV interview)
Her interview, just prior to stage. "I don’t feel like a 12-year-old” 🌺

She wrote this about her family.
Does anybody know if her sister has any talents. Thank you❤❤❤❤ 3:07
Juliette likes to Dance. 😀
it's her original, but it was not written by her. doesn't diminish it. she seems to have added a line or two.
