I went back and looked at 6 or so other artists (original Cy Grant, Nina Simone, Buble, Bonamassa, George Michael, Lauryn Hill) who covered this, thinking someone else had done something like the awesome run at the end that Angelina does. Nope! As usual, she comes up with a really musically compelling arrangement, and now just owns this song🙂
Angelina sing this song better as Michael Bubble she sings maybe for her good friend Avici who died 😢!!! She loved ❤his music !!! I love it ❤❤❤ Amazing Voice beautiful brillant unbelievable incredible stunning performance as always!! Nobody is like Angelina!! She is untouchable! Great comments and analysis Nick 👍👌👏Greetings from Switzerland 🇨🇭🇨🇭🇨🇭have a good Week 👌❤️✌️☮️😇👌🔥👣👸🎙🎷🎺🎸🎼👋🏻🙋♂️
Big voice given the size of the orchestra..which is so impressive beautifully balanced...wow at 10...who does that....a true original talent.....awesome...just awesome.
… Even if I keep repeating myself...nobody sings this song better than Angelina...nobody!! I can't find the words to describe how perfectly it is sung!! So perfect... world class... the orchestra is also sensational!! ✨💎✨ Thank you
Thank you for another reaction to Angelina. In my opinion, she is the best singer in the world, and there are thousands of others who would agree with me. Every moment you spend featuring her on your channel will being you great emotional satisfaction. There are so many things I get from this performance. Some I recognised immediately and those I missed were brought to my attention by the more observant Angelina fans (her Angels) and I thank them for letting me know what I had missed. (1) The realisation that at the age of 10 Angelina has shed all childishness from her voice. (2) A feeling that the placement of the spotlight at the beginning of her performance was deliberate. If it was, then, to my mind, it was a brilliant move. (3) The fact that Angelina arranged this song and that the band kept out of the way and let her voice be the focus. (4) The incredible low note she sang for the word "good" at the beginning and end of the performance. (5) That wonderful crescendo at the end. (6) The was Angelina used her left arm and hand throughout the performance (7) The way she changed the microphone from her right hand to left hand, so that she could flip her hair back with her right hand. (8) The cheeky smile she gave to the cameraman when she realised he had focused on her at about 5.39 in your reaction video. (9) The sideways look and grin she gives to her instrumentalists just after she curtsies to the audience -- as if to say, "Yeah, we killed it, guys! Now let's go get some ice cream!" (10) The almost instantaneous switch from "performance" mode to that of a young child who,curseyed and gave a sweet smile to the audience as an acknowledgement of their applause. Others have commented that the performance by Nina Simone should be considered the "gold" standard for this song. Until recently, I had never watched her performance, but have now done so. They just cannot be compared, for Angelina's arrangement is totally different
Amazing reaction Nick, every time I see this video my jaw drops and I think anyone, even those who don't appreciate Angelina, will be amazed by this performance, it's all there..tone, voice, arrangement and timing on musical instruments fantastic for a (a) professional singer, but if you are 10 years old well..there is no suitable adjective to describe her, thanks again, good life and music..Massimo🤩
Loved your reaction and comments Nick. Angelina is just so amazing and talented. So much stage presence and charisma while performing and then she goes right back to the shy, humble young girl when she’s finished. I can’t get enough of this incredible young artist.
I tell you what she says. Angelina says she goes to place on within herself and it’s an expression our souls there that’s where she gets it. It’s a magical place. No one knows where it’s at but she met meant to details but with us a magical place where she goes on the inside and that’s where she gets her inspiration that’s a prodigy
Yes, in my opinion, Angelina did Nina proud, but at the same time, she left her behind in the dust. This is not just a good cover; it is the BEST rendition I've ever heard in my 68 years, bar none -- and I've heard many over the years. This video, her voice, her stage presence and charisma are absolutely addicting in this performance!
Nick, thanks for this wonderful reaction to this amazing performance by Angelina. Her very personal reading of this classic, which she has developed on her own, is sensational not only for a 10-year-old girl, but for an adult as well, there is not only her understanding of the musical texture of the song, but also the ability to change it in a very unique way. I'm adding a link to one of his piano rehearsal sessions in a backstage of this song, 2 years before this show (at only 8 years). The natural talent of this girl is simply unreal. 💛🧡❤ ua-cam.com/video/nQbyK_frFiw/v-deo.html
Angelina started to perform Feeling Good in public about a year earlier than here, in December 2015. Unfortunately she had a cold back then with some influence on her voice, but it was nonetheless an outstanding performance, at 9 years old already: ua-cam.com/video/D9tI-FCslRw/v-deo.html The playlist this is embedded in contains in total 10 occurences of her doing Feeling Good, incl. some rehearsals and a short TikTok snippet from last year January. Her version here reminds me of Michael Bublé's one, despite of her more impressive ending: ua-cam.com/video/Edwsf-8F3sI/v-deo.html&pp=iAQB8AUB
Thanks for another great reaction to our Angelina! Her range always astonishes me. This cover is forever in my top 5 Angelina videos! That build at the end always gives me goosebumps, even though I know it's coming.
Even at 10 years old, Angelina had perfect pitch....PLUS a very good musical ear. She's also great at mimicking what she has heard and incorporated all of those traits to create her own unique style. Truly a gifted young lady.
Love the comments you made for Angelina ❤ my thoughts exactly !!! From my point of view she embodies at least 4 greats and plus her own unique talent on top. She's a breath of fresh air Her family must be proud 😊❤😊
Your reactions are sterling! Yes....we know how you feel. LOL....she's so smooth and relaxed and we know she's got this. She pays the song homage. She performs with ease to give us all a lesson in how it's done.
Nick, as usual at that time with AJ, this was a charity concert and the treasure of Norway was invited. A lot of her concerts she did where for fundraisers. In 2014 she sang in Berlin/Germany at "Ein Herz für Kinder" (A heart for the children) and they raised 21 million EURO that night together with many other artists. Be safe and sound. Elmar from Germany
I really appreciate that you wonder aloud what AJ was thinking about when she arranged and sang her songs ages 7-12. I wonder about that too. Can’t wait for a memoir that explains her younger years and development. I think she wrote and performed her first original when she was 11, and that’s when she revealed her profound poetry about *What is Life.* We know Gloomy Sunday was about a “sad” Sunday and we know I put a spell on you was about “desperate love” Whew this girl is more than a musical prodigy.
You know when someone just has IT ! There has never been a child singer iv ever thought of listening to.....and enjoying it so much ! Great reaction and go Angelina !!!!!
She really throws everything at the ending... kitchen sink 'n all... I've heard this I don't know how many times. Moved ever time. EVERY time. Just balm for the soul...
Hi Nick 👋. An absolutely wonderful reaction to 10 Angelina. There's a video of Angelina finding her way of singing this song. It's a behind the scenes kind of thing at 10 on her writing things out and then trying them. It worth a reaction. She also sang it again at a outdoor concert but with her small stage band and gave it a different feel but still amazing. Worth reacting to also. Remember that Angelina never sings a song the same way twice even her originals. So they'll all be 1st time reactions. God bless you Nick and your family 🙏 ✝️❤ 🙂👍 (PS Nick, will you please react to Laura Bretan's cover of "Adagio". She’s not well known outside her circle cause of her genre's but her voice and character are amazing ❤). Thank you.
I've been following her career for a few years now, and she is phenomenal. My favorites are when she is with guitarist ivan singing a million years ago, stay, and california dreamin. I believe all are around age 12. She completely blew me away with i'm still holding out for you, which was a demo that was not supposed to be released. She did the demo for babyface, who ended up releasing the song because her mom was concerned about the dark content. She also does a Whitney Houston cover that shows her versatility. I also really love her originals. A million miles, which she wrote about her grandfather and 7th heaven. I enjoy watching your reactions and you going down the rabbit hole of the phenomenal angelina.
I couldn’t agree with you more. I’ve been following Angelina for years, and her voice still moves me every time. She is one of the greatest vocalists of all time. ❤️🦶🏻👸🏻
Nice job, Nick. One thing I pick up on this video is how she tracks the mobile camera while it is passing in front of her. Here's a room full of people but she tracks the camera. Mark of a pro (in the making). Between Norway's Got Talent and America's Got Talent, Angelina did a ton of YT covers. I think her covers of Adele songs are especially worth watching (e.g. "A million years ago" sung to a single acoustic guitar). Her cover of "I will Always Love You" (the Whitney classic) is amazing as it stretched her into a whole different style. I start her current period with her signing with Republic Records as they changed the production quality of her videos dramatically. (take a look at "Easy On Me", for example) but the frequency went way down as she entered middle school and through high school (which she is about to finish). Of her own songs--Shield, A Million Miles Away, Seventh Heaven, Love Don't Let Me Go--they have done pretty well but one can see her song writing improving over time (of course). There's a lot of territory to cover with her. Right now, the question on my mind is whether she will go to college or not--and how that decision will shape her future.
Live big band + little Angelina = 🎶☺🎉. Glad to be tagging along with you as you experience more Angelina, Nick! Thanks for a fun reaction. Like you, I love that growl near the end! Cheers.
Thanks for a very good reaction, Nick! She performed this live on a televised charity event here in Norway when she was 10. And it is one of my absolute favorite performances by her. I'm looking very much forward to your next reaction to her 👍 Much love from Norway ♥♥♥♥♥
Wonderful, astute observations, Nick. I'm dawn in to Angelina's voice every time. And I always want the song to go on much longer than it does. She's like a good massage for the heart and soul. Looking for the next one, Grandma Ellen, Zzzzzoutzzz.
Hopefully when they create the documentary of Angelina's life, we will learn the back story of her relationship with Avicii. After NGT Angelina was well known and respected among Scandinavian musicians. I have heard rumors that she corroborated with Avicii on the arrangemnent for the Volvo ad campaign. There are pictures of them together on social media when she was younger than 10, and she posted a very touching tribute cover of Wake Me Up after his tragic death.
In the future there will probably be courses analyzing Angelina and her artistry. All of her songs at 10 years old would make a chapter on their own, but this leads the way.
Thanks for another great reaction to & appreciation of another great performance by Angelina - at age 10. Unbelievable poise & stage presence - she seems to be leading the orchestra. In regards to this song, you made a reference to Avicii. After his passing, Angelina did an incredible acoustic cover of his mega-hit "Wake Me Up" - & dedicated it to her "dear friend Avicii". Always look forward to your Angelina reactions. Thank you. And may GOD continue to watch over & bless Angelina Jordan.
If you want to dive into the history and discography of a piece, it can usually be found by searching on its title in Wikipedia. A ten minute excursion is often enough to find whatever it is you're looking for. You can even do that in no time by taking a break in your video and starting up again once you got what you needed. The arrangement by Hal Moody Wikipedia mentions that Nina Simone sung to may have been the same arrangement used here by Angelina. ... And, yes. Another mesmerizing performance by Angelina. ... Have a good one. Enjoyed it.
She’s up there and possibly beyond (vocally) Michael Jackson at the same age imo..just extraordinary 🙏 I love your reactions and genuinely look forward to listening to your thoughts thank you 🙏
Nick, Loved it, as always. When you have the time, or in a reaction, you should also check out Angelina singing this around the same time at Allsang outdoors in front of a huge crowd. It is spectacular with an added bonus twist. You'll love it.
I think her runs are instrumental, she hits the notes treating her voice as an instrument because she had minimal vocal training mainly focused on protecting her voice and breath control. Her main musical training was instrumental. She studied piano, flute violin and guitar. The slight yodel at the end of her notes is not something I can remember in another of her songs. That is why listening to her whole back catalogue is a good idea.
Nick, as always, what a great commentary and insight for this performance. We know well how outstanding Angelina was as many of us have seen it countless times. The poise and confidence, the control and emotion, and that finish which was Not from this world! But with that said, kudos also go to the reactor who spends a few minutes researching the song, it's meaning, and the original artist. You also provided some great information on vocal technique and your knowledge of Angelina leading the band rather than vice versa. Instead of saying Angelina did a great cover song, I would take that a step further as others have, and say that Angelina uncovers a song, or that she is the song. Thanks again Nick for supporting the artist and directing viewers to her channel to subscribe. Just a bit of important information here. The benefit to the artist is achieved the same way as it is for your channel. Both of you benefit equally if you encourage the same actions for both artist and reactor. That is, watch all videos to the end, like, comment, share, and subscribe. The artist receives maximum benefit when viewers like and comment on the original video the same as your reaction video. That way everybody wins. Keep in mind that the artist also has Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok channels where subscriptions are highly desirable. Now, since Angelina is about to be promoted big time and has released her new single, it is important that reactors and viewers purchase and stream her original music on Spotify, iTunes, and Amazon music. Lots of simple actions and reminders help all young artists, and ideally, they should apply to any of those that you react to, however comfortably you can fit that in to your protocol. Thanks Nick and peace out.
Ron, thank you so much for your insight and drive to help support artists directly. I know they must appreciate you! I am just so impressed by Angelina. It's hard to find the right words that capture what a genius and good person she is!
@@nickforell1 Thanks Nick. I don't think the artists have any knowledge of what we do, but it doesn't matter. We don't do it for recognition. We do it for artists we respect, who are inspirational, and are great role models to make us better people. The world needs that now, and it's the least we can do! By the way, I remember you mentioning that you were graduating and I want to congratulate you and wish you the best going forward. Peace my friend.
Full body chills every time. This is such a spectacular performance and it’s even more astonishing coming from a supremely talented and gifted ten year old child.
There is talk that Angelina is associating herself with 2026 World Cup. Could she be singing at the final? If anybody has more accurate information please share thank you.❤❤❤❤❤❤
People bought a ticket to come in her saying she gets paid bangers paid the directors on stage and get paid. If the carpenter electricians everybody gets paid for the season tickets she’s actually working as a profession of age of 10.😊
Here is a video of Angelina a year earlier (9) at home practicing Feeling Good and coming up with the ending she wants to use: ua-cam.com/video/QdN2dNS1NzQ/v-deo.html
Thanks Nick for a great reaction. This is one of my favorite songs of Anelina at that age. Another one was the great song Every time we say goodbye, sung by Ella Firzgerald and covered by angelina, well worth a listen. She was an amazing child performer and now a brilliant teen performer, i can't imagine how she will improve as a fully fledged adult. Exciting times ahead!
Nick, I along with everyone who takes the time to post a comment, appreciate you reading them. I suggest you inform your viewers, that the comment section is where we learn about the artist. Only a small percentage of viewers post a comment but hopefully they will read the comments to learn about the artist. Please encourage all viewers to read the comments and hopefully some will be inspired to reply to a comment or post one of their own.
I love watching these reactions to her voice. You all seem to have the same wow factor I have. She like a little girl with an old black man singers voice stuck in her somewhere.
Hey, just wanted to say thanks nick!!both the Angelina Jordan intro had me floored! & started the stormlight archive & it's fantastic,haven't been able to put it down!!so thanks!! If you ever do a book review too I'd be there!!
@@nickforell1 not bad chuck! Just been in a whirlwind getting my little torties into their erm reptile hotel? Kennel? Not really sure how to describe it😂 going to Scotland tomorrow finally!(started the book as soon as it arrived. Jeez fella it's truly awesome). Hope you're good chuck@
Sorry I'm rambling. It's been a while since I've got up there & it's that one place where we all just decompress. Not sure how to explain it. Hey ho!😂😂
Nick, you may wish to back up a little bit and partake of Angelina when she was only six years old and supposedly the first time in a recording studio. She was singing “I who have nothing“. Remember it was not only her first time in the recording studio, but this filming was her very first take of the song.j
I suppose, the version of Nina Simone was her blueprint (dont you know, what i mean?)Breathtaking as that is, Nina' s version will always be untouchable for me. Maybe, because I come from this time, and Nina sang this in spite of all sorrow and anger she witnessed, while fighting for civil rights and against racism. Very moving, a real song of hope. Here we have an innocent child, who gives her heart to the people in the audience and her angels, telling about real values of live. Quite different vibe...
Yes, means on the border Leon is there I had to pay and buy tickets to hear this old girl sang was really from Domino’s. She’s a great singer also to English not a first language English just not her first language do you think she’s American when you well, she’s not even in Norway.
if i may Nick ---when i hear and see her it proves to me there is a God because we are seeing and hearing ---- God given Talent and it is beautiful
I went back and looked at 6 or so other artists (original Cy Grant, Nina Simone, Buble, Bonamassa, George Michael, Lauryn Hill) who covered this, thinking someone else had done something like the awesome run at the end that Angelina does. Nope! As usual, she comes up with a really musically compelling arrangement, and now just owns this song🙂
There are really no words to describe her. Magical comes to mind, but that isn't sufficient either.
Angelina reminds me of how beautiful a human being can be...and she can sing too.
This is exciting.. This ranks right up there with "I Put a Spell on You" in terms of WOW factor.
Definitely!
Always feelin' good when listening to Angelina 🤩👣🧡🧡🙌❣️
Well said Gary!
She is sooo good...and that little smirk at the end saying "how about that, I killed it"...
Angelina sing this song better as Michael Bubble she sings maybe for her good friend Avici who died 😢!!! She loved ❤his music !!! I love it ❤❤❤ Amazing Voice beautiful brillant unbelievable incredible stunning performance as always!! Nobody is like Angelina!!
She is untouchable! Great comments and analysis Nick 👍👌👏Greetings from Switzerland 🇨🇭🇨🇭🇨🇭have a good Week 👌❤️✌️☮️😇👌🔥👣👸🎙🎷🎺🎸🎼👋🏻🙋♂️
Totally untouchable Roger! Thanks for supporting
JUST MAKES YOUR EYES WATER DON'T SHE !!!!!!!!
Wow, I forgot how good that was !!!
Right Heidi??
Big voice given the size of the orchestra..which is so impressive beautifully balanced...wow at 10...who does that....a true original talent.....awesome...just awesome.
… Even if I keep repeating myself...nobody sings this song better than Angelina...nobody!! I can't find the words to describe how perfectly it is sung!! So perfect... world class... the orchestra is also sensational!! ✨💎✨ Thank you
Thee Miss. Angelina Jordan "Master Jazz & Pop Vocalist + Songwriter" The Musical Girl Who Walked to Hollywood - Barefoot.!!!
You betcha! 10 yrs young and this little lady is singing us all how this song should be done! She is 1 of a kind.🌎🌍☮️❤
Agree with that Brian!

Thank you so much Massimo for those kind words. She’s truly out of this world
Loved your reaction and comments Nick. Angelina is just so amazing and talented. So much stage presence and charisma while performing and then she goes right back to the shy, humble young girl when she’s finished. I can’t get enough of this incredible young artist.
Thank you Dirk. Yes, her charisma is off the charts. Truly special
She's a phenomenon.
I tell you what she says. Angelina says she goes to place on within herself and it’s an expression our souls there that’s where she gets it. It’s a magical place.

Pure Damn Fire 🔥
You should check her out doing this song outdoors in Norway about the same age.
....she just made such a good Job of singing this at this age. 😊 You really sense a diamond-singer in the making. !!❤️💥💫⚘️🌟
Yes Britta, she is going to be unstoppable
Thank you, yes our barefoot princess is amazing and she’s only going to get better
FYI, I believe this was a live television performance in Norway.
Every time I see this I ask myself, how the hell did she do that??
It's pretty incredible!

It's not over til she courtesies
Your reactions are sterling! Yes....we know how you feel. LOL....she's so smooth and relaxed and we know she's got this. She pays the song homage. She performs with ease to give us all a lesson in how it's done.
Thank you Wesley that’s so kind of you to say! She’s incredibly talented

Her talent has always been there, it's just been waiting for her body to catch up.
Old soul sums it up.
I really appreciate that you wonder aloud what AJ was thinking about when she arranged and sang her songs ages 7-12. I wonder about that too. Can’t wait for a memoir that explains her younger years and development.

We know Gloomy Sunday was about a “sad” Sunday and we know I put a spell on you was about “desperate love”
Whew this girl is more than a musical prodigy.
Yes Bonnie, it’s just incredible that she is able to produce magic like she does
Wow, she’s out of this world! ❤️
You know when someone just has IT ! There has never been a child singer iv ever thought of listening to.....and enjoying it so much ! Great reaction and go Angelina !!!!!
She really throws everything at the ending... kitchen sink 'n all... I've heard this I don't know how many times. Moved ever time. EVERY time. Just balm for the soul...
Totally agree Peter! She has so limit
This is still one of my favorite performances of hers.
I think after seeing the very real joy on your face and in your eyes you are surely now a full blown Angel sir.
I really appreciate that Paul, it sure feels good!
Best rendition of this song ever !!!
Yeah, it’s pretty unreal to watch!
Pure talent sent from Heaven, at her age this is so unparagoned. Thanks Nick for introducing her to me
I’m so glad you’re enjoying Nathan!
she just keeps on getting better and better. love her voice

No doubt and God bless you and Norway. Most loved, gift to manKind😊❤❤❤
Yeah, not bad for 10 years old. Actually, not bad for 30, 40, or 50 years old. The best child singer ever is now the best singer I’ve ever heard.
I would absolutely agree John. Out of this world
I couldn’t agree with you more. I’ve been following Angelina for years, and her voice still moves me every time. She is one of the greatest vocalists of all time. ❤️🦶🏻👸🏻

Thank you so much Owen! I totally am happy that you are enjoying the journey with me :)
@@nickforell1 That's great, Nick. Enjoy the ride!
WOW.
I love your reactions to Angelina, 😀 Keep them comming. 😀
Thank you so much Frode! Definitely will :)
Thanks for a very good reaction, Nick! She performed this live on a televised charity event here in Norway when she was 10. And it is one of my absolute favorite performances by her.
I'm looking very much forward to your next reaction to her 👍 Much love from Norway ♥♥♥♥♥
Thank you so much as always Pool :D She is just wonderful
@@nickforell1 👍👍
Another unbelievable one to hear is her (leaked) version of "IM STILL HOLDING OUT FOR YOU"
Wonderful, astute observations, Nick. I'm dawn in to Angelina's voice every time. And I always want the song to go on much longer than it does. She's like a good massage for the heart and soul. Looking for the next one, Grandma Ellen, Zzzzzoutzzz.
Thank you so much Ellen! Her voice is so angelic
Hopefully when they create the documentary of Angelina's life, we will learn the back story of her relationship with Avicii. After NGT Angelina was well known and respected among Scandinavian musicians. I have heard rumors that she corroborated with Avicii on the arrangemnent for the Volvo ad campaign. There are pictures of them together on social media when she was younger than 10, and she posted a very touching tribute cover of Wake Me Up after his tragic death.
In the future there will probably be courses analyzing Angelina and her artistry. All of her songs at 10 years old would make a chapter on their own, but this leads the way.
😇😇😇😇😇🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Thanks for another great reaction to & appreciation of another great performance by Angelina - at age 10. Unbelievable poise & stage presence - she seems to be leading the orchestra. In regards to this song, you made a reference to Avicii. After his passing, Angelina did an incredible acoustic cover of his mega-hit "Wake Me Up" - & dedicated it to her "dear friend Avicii". Always look forward to your Angelina reactions. Thank you. And may GOD continue to watch over & bless Angelina Jordan.
If you want to dive into the history and discography of a piece, it can usually be found by searching on its title in Wikipedia. A ten minute excursion is often enough to find whatever it is you're looking for. You can even do that in no time by taking a break in your video and starting up again once you got what you needed. The arrangement by Hal Moody Wikipedia mentions that Nina Simone sung to may have been the same arrangement used here by Angelina. ... And, yes. Another mesmerizing performance by Angelina. ... Have a good one. Enjoyed it.
Wonderful suggestion about the deep dives!
Ive never seen a reactor start on this song for Angelina. Awesome!
She’s up there and possibly beyond (vocally) Michael Jackson at the same age imo..just extraordinary 🙏 I love your reactions and genuinely look forward to listening to your thoughts thank you 🙏
Thx Nick and Jeffery. Love this performance.
Appreciate that Genie!
Nick, Loved it, as always. When you have the time, or in a reaction, you should also check out Angelina singing this around the same time at Allsang outdoors in front of a huge crowd. It is spectacular with an added bonus twist. You'll love it.
Okay Gary, I’ll definitely do that. Thank you!
Back in 2014 I woted myself poor for Angelina. Couple of years ago, hardly no one reacted to her.
still amazing
I think her runs are instrumental, she hits the notes treating her voice as an instrument because she had minimal vocal training mainly focused on protecting her voice and breath control. Her main musical training was instrumental. She studied piano, flute violin and guitar. The slight yodel at the end of her notes is not something I can remember in another of her songs. That is why listening to her whole back catalogue is a good idea.
10 years old... how???
It’s almost impossible to believe!
Nick, as always, what a great commentary and insight for this performance. We know well how outstanding Angelina was as many of us have seen it countless times. The poise and confidence, the control and emotion, and that finish which was Not from this world! But with that said, kudos also go to the reactor who spends a few minutes researching the song, it's meaning, and the original artist. You also provided some great information on vocal technique and your knowledge of Angelina leading the band rather than vice versa. Instead of saying Angelina did a great cover song, I would take that a step further as others have, and say that Angelina uncovers a song, or that she is the song.
Thanks again Nick for supporting the artist and directing viewers to her channel to subscribe. Just a bit of important information here. The benefit to the artist is achieved the same way as it is for your channel. Both of you benefit equally if you encourage the same actions for both artist and reactor. That is, watch all videos to the end, like, comment, share, and subscribe. The artist receives maximum benefit when viewers like and comment on the original video the same as your reaction video. That way everybody wins. Keep in mind that the artist also has Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok channels where subscriptions are highly desirable. Now, since Angelina is about to be promoted big time and has released her new single, it is important that reactors and viewers purchase and stream her original music on Spotify, iTunes, and Amazon music.
Lots of simple actions and reminders help all young artists, and ideally, they should apply to any of those that you react to, however comfortably you can fit that in to your protocol. Thanks Nick and peace out.
Ron, thank you so much for your insight and drive to help support artists directly. I know they must appreciate you! I am just so impressed by Angelina. It's hard to find the right words that capture what a genius and good person she is!
@@nickforell1 Thanks Nick. I don't think the artists have any knowledge of what we do, but it doesn't matter. We don't do it for recognition. We do it for artists we respect, who are inspirational, and are great role models to make us better people. The world needs that now, and it's the least we can do!
By the way, I remember you mentioning that you were graduating and I want to congratulate you and wish you the best going forward. Peace my friend.
Full body chills every time. This is such a spectacular performance and it’s even more astonishing coming from a supremely talented and gifted ten year old child.
Completely agree, its pretty mindblowing!
❤❤❤
There is talk that Angelina is associating herself with 2026 World Cup. Could she be singing at the final? If anybody has more accurate information please share thank you.❤❤❤❤❤❤
Now that would be Cool Paul. Here’s to hoping!
People bought a ticket to come in her saying she gets paid bangers paid the directors on stage and get paid. If the carpenter electricians everybody gets paid for the season tickets she’s actually working as a profession of age of 10.😊
Such an amazing voice 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
Here is a video of Angelina a year earlier (9) at home practicing Feeling Good and coming up with the ending she wants to use: ua-cam.com/video/QdN2dNS1NzQ/v-deo.html
Thank you Robert :)
Just stunning and hard to believe regardless of age when she does at the end. Great reaction again Nick.
Thank you so so much Max!
Great reaction Nick. Every time I watch this it puts a big smile on my face. I love how she directs her vocal elevation with her hand, awesome.
Thank you Abbie, yes she can me you smile so easily!
She's one of a kind. Great reaction video!
She's the g.o.a.t. wild bill
Thanks Nick for a great reaction. This is one of my favorite songs of Anelina at that age. Another one was the great song Every time we say goodbye, sung by Ella Firzgerald and covered by angelina, well worth a listen. She was an amazing child performer and now a brilliant teen performer, i can't imagine how she will improve as a fully fledged adult. Exciting times ahead!
Yes, Suzanne! Exciting times to be an AJ fan
You need to hear "A million years ago" and "Stay" just a magnificent voice. Always a great reaction from you, thanks you.
Thank you Roaming. Those are now on my radar!
Nick, I along with everyone who takes the time to post a comment, appreciate you reading them. I suggest you inform your viewers, that the comment section is where we learn about the artist. Only a small percentage of viewers post a comment but hopefully they will read the comments to learn about the artist. Please encourage all viewers to read the comments and hopefully some will be inspired to reply to a comment or post one of their own.
Okay Andy! Great suggestion about turning to the comments to enrich your understanding about an artist. I'll start doing that!
Check out Angelina Jordan song .A million miles. She wrote this song about her grandfather passing away. I think 14 years old
Okay Danny, I'll definitely be doing that. Thank you!
👏👏🤩
👏👏👍👍
Great reaction, God Bless!
Thank you Mark!
I love watching these reactions to her voice. You all seem to have the same wow factor I have. She like a little girl with an old black man singers voice stuck in her somewhere.
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Hey, just wanted to say thanks nick!!both the Angelina Jordan intro had me floored! & started the stormlight archive & it's fantastic,haven't been able to put it down!!so thanks!! If you ever do a book review too I'd be there!!
Ellie! How are you? Thank you 😊 really enjoy your takes and of course. Maybe I’ll try to review something soon
@@nickforell1 not bad chuck! Just been in a whirlwind getting my little torties into their erm reptile hotel? Kennel? Not really sure how to describe it😂 going to Scotland tomorrow finally!(started the book as soon as it arrived. Jeez fella it's truly awesome). Hope you're good chuck@
@@ellieandthetorts oh I’m so glad you’re enjoying the book. Have a blast in Scotland!
Sorry I'm rambling. It's been a while since I've got up there & it's that one place where we all just decompress. Not sure how to explain it. Hey ho!😂😂
Oh god actually I think billy started doing a few youtube videos himself but it's just him drinking bunnahabhain & laphroaig & reviewing😂😂
Amazing 🤩
Thank you! Cheers!
Nick, you may wish to back up a little bit and partake of Angelina when she was only six years old and supposedly the first time in a recording studio. She was singing “I who have nothing“. Remember it was not only her first time in the recording studio, but this filming was her very first take of the song.j
Oh thank you for that advice Demo, I'll do that!
I suppose, the version of Nina Simone was her blueprint (dont you know, what i mean?)Breathtaking as that is, Nina' s version will always be untouchable for me. Maybe, because I come from this time, and Nina sang this in spite of all sorrow and anger she witnessed, while fighting for civil rights and against racism. Very moving, a real song of hope. Here we have an innocent child, who gives her heart to the people in the audience and her angels, telling about real values of live. Quite different vibe...
I think it's closer to Michael Bublé's version: ua-cam.com/video/Edwsf-8F3sI/v-deo.html&pp=iAQB8AUB
Yes, means on the border Leon is there I had to pay and buy tickets to hear this old girl sang was really from Domino’s. She’s a great singer also to English not a first language English just not her first language do you think she’s American when you well, she’s not even in Norway.
Amazing performance! ❤❤❤❤ Great reaction!
Thank you so much Brendo!
😊
❤️
How did you like the cadenzaat the end?
The climax at the end was perfect
