Angelina plays piano, guitar, violin, and flute. Her grandmother, Mery Zamani, has been her mentor as a painter. At age 9, she wrote a book about her encounter with a homeless girl about her age (6 at the time) who had no shoes. Angelina took off her own shoes and gave them to the other girl. She became the youngest published author in the history of Norway. All proceeds of her book go to children's charities. She is, as her name implies, angelic.
Angelina’s tribute to Elvis was perfection.Angelina was dressed in black leather as a tribute to the Elvis 1968 Come Back Special he wore black leather and the guitar 🎸 he was playing in 68 is Elvis’s own guitar 🎸 and that guitar Angelina had yes it was the real thing it was Elvis’s own guitar how brilliant is that . The little girls are Angelina’s cousins her uncle Michaels daughters and the older girl is Angelina’s sister Juliette. My 2 favourite singers of all time is off course Elvis and Angelina so this made me very happy.great reaction Love from Denise in Yorkshire 👼👸🏻🦶🦶👏👏👏🎸🎸😘👋
Absolutely beautiful her voice captivates you low notes draws you in ,th children were her relatives and arranged by her grandmother how wonderful is that best song from her yet could listen to this over and over again.the hair is from priscilla the leathers elvis marvellous suspicious minds out of this world.
Hello Adam,yes she played on house of the rising sun.and she plays piano. I saw your eyes open further as AJ started to sing yes you were captured again.love your videos.
Not many people know "Suspicious Minds" is a 1968 song written and first recorded by American songwriter Mark James. Elvis done a cover and made it popular. I think I like AJs version better.
Angelina is a gift for us all, musically adept and emotionally able to translate in her own manner melodies of any age. She's performed, Billy Holiday, Sinatra, Elton John, Freddie Mercury, Elvis Presley with such ease that we have to accept that this little lady was born with a gift that we have to accept. We have to accept she can translate song. But we have to accept she can create her own version of melodies that make her unique. She can master the Masters and she can create her own masterpiece sound as well. Yes! We should be able to recognize that this young girl can produce a sound so unique and special that will add to the masterpieces of artistry that deserve to be written down in history. She's proven her worth since her local Norwegian challenge and she continues to work and sacrifice her own sound just to reach us all with a humble dedication to music. She's a devoted musician and I for one am an aware fan, despite her young age. I truly back her success and wish her the best of luck in the music business that is promoted by totally different ideals and goals. I hope that her fans are able to make an impact in her musical contribution to real music. She deserves the honor that musicians are born to receive.
I listen 2 this video/this artist many times everyday. I am so hoping 2 see her in concert. Love this version by AJ..She has tailored this elegantly, confidently & lovingly..Beautiful.🧡
This is a classic best cover of this song by the king the queen has done it again what talent this young lady has I just love aj she is a gift from god
Very different from Elvis’, softer, gentler. I put off playing this because I didn’t like the belting, to me harsher, way Elvis sang it. I should have been braver. She always makes it her own. Exquisite. Beautiful.
The Queen paid homage to the King. I feel safe in saying that Elvis would have been incredibly impressed and proud of the production, the arrangement, how beautifully Angelina sung his song and how pianist, Rob Christie accompanied her. There is gold. There is platinum. There is diamond. Angelina is a very rare precious gem. To say that this performance is stunning is a gross understatement. Mesmerizing, captivating, hypnotic and magnetic barely suffice in describing what listening to the cover does to me.
These are well chosen words, I felt them too. Stiff upper lip English is still limited, even with its vast vocabulary, to describe Angelina and reading endless comments we hear people struggling to put feelings to words. You did well.
Did you notice the children came in about the time the lyrics communicated too much to lose. I think she brought in the children to foreshadow that for families this kind of tragedy ruins more hearts than two.
Angelina at 16 is the MASTER of her universe, she is top priority for both Stargate, and Rob Christie Republic Records Studio Director at Universal Music Group Manhattan Beach, California. Rob has been playing the piano on most of AJ's studio production performances.
Angelina plays guitar, piano, flute and violin. None of them necessarily with tremendous facility, but she does know how to play them! The oldest of the three girls featured in the video was Angelina's little sister (and per Angelina, the love of her life), Juliette, the toddler with the amazing curly brown hair was her cousin, Athena, and the little one is Athena's younger sister, whom I've not seen before. Of course she's the newest addition to the extended family! They are Angelina's uncle's kids. Her uncle Michael, who is also her manager. Executive producer was Mery Zamani, who is Angelina's maternal grandmother. She was a prodigy herself as a poet, writer and painter. She taught Angelina the language, Farsi, which Angelina is fluent in along with Norwegian and English. She is also credited with introducing Angelina to many of the greats of Jazz when Angelina first showed an interest in that particular genre of singing. She is enormously important to Angelina! In terns of this song, I never really liked Elvis's version of it. Angelina did a "frame off restoration" of this song! She literally stripped it down to it's framework, and built it back from the ground up and created a recording I honestly enjoy! Simply Genius! Plus, when you include the nod to Priscilla Presley with the beehive hairdo, and the Tip of the hat to the king with the black leather outfit and red semi solid body guitar a'la his 1968 Comeback Special, well the homage is complete! I love your reactions, and I wish you and all of the people you love in your life, peace, joy and love!
Piano is probably her first instrument. She has posted covers where she plays keyboards since she was twelve. Lately she has played electric guitar in several TikTok clips, and she has improved notably over the last year or so. I suspect that her goal is to play both instruments on stage in the future. Regarding violin and flute, I believe that comes from a very old interview about the music school she attended before going on NGT, and it’s possible that she hasn’t touched either in many years. The idea that she plays those instruments is part of the fan mythology by now.
That was great, and very detailed info Roger. And thank you for that. Regarding musical instruments that she plays, I don't think she has done anything with the violin and flute since she was a young child. But it appears she is committed to becoming proficient with piano and guitar, both acoustic and electric. Mostly chords to accompany her vocals, and she is becoming more confident with both. Concerning this performance, the symbolism was everywhere---hairdo, clothing, guitar, antique store, children, etc. From the very first line of the song, her performance is Absolutely STUNNING!! 10+
Elvis Tirbute THE KING! Done by none other then Miss ANGELINA JORDAN THE QUEEN. She is part of the ELVIS movie sound tract, hence, dressed for the era, she is with he blue swayed shoes, basically a female version of Elvis look. The children in video are her family members. Nicely collaborated to demonstrate various phases of her growing up into the BEAUTY SHE IS. BRILLIANT! I could see AJ in the Movies. She is an Artist on so many different levels.
Rob Christie Playing Piano: That dude playing the piano is Rob Christie Republic Records Studio Director at Universal Music Group Manhattan Beach, California, and he has been working with AJ since she signed with the largest record company in the world at the age of 14, two years ago. Rob was the MC of AJ Christmas Show that aired Dec 23, of 21. AJ’s Christmas Show that live-streamed on Dec 23 of 21 had some of the most important musicians of our time: Frank Sinatra's drummer for 6 years, and sun in-law of the late Henry Mancini, Greg Field has won 9 Grammys, and the bass player, Chuck Berghofer who also played for Sinatra for 6 years, and toured with Barbara Streisand, accompanied AJ on her Christmas Show, and they stated that she had the "storytelling ability of the greats, Streisand, Fitzgerald, Vaughan, including Sinatra, to name a few. The main pianist, a five-time nominated for Grammys, Shelly Berg, stated in all his years working with the greatest vocalist, he had never encountered a talent like AJ. Did I forget to mention Jimmy Z, the famous Sax Player who worked with Rod Steward, Etta James, the Eurythmics, and Doctor Dre, was part of the band for the show? Jimmy stated that AJ was the best he has ever played for. Rob Christie Republic Records Studio Director at Universal Music Group Manhattan Beach, California played the guitar, and was the MC of the show. (I can't list the complete backgrounds on all the band members because it would take several pages to do them justice.) Angelina stated that she would rather perform than take a breath, and she has never been forced to perform, it has been her decision.
Adam, you are my first and favorite Angelina reacter. I found her through you ages ago. Thank you! I In this video I did not understand all the metaphors of the antique shop, to me, until I had seen it 5 or 6 times. I’m sorry if someone said this already. First of all, she un”covered” the King’s throne, then the mirror which is used repeatedly to show her reflecting the original and reflecting on the original. Finally, the cloth over the piano was dusty, as she “dusted off an old classic.” Her grandmother, Mery Zamani, was the executive producer and I’m sure was the artist behind the set.
You cannot know how refreshing your reactions are...so many of these 'reactors' have nothing intelligent to say or add, have the intuitivity of a boot, and an ego that tells them 'they' are the important one & 'not' the videos they are supposed 2 be listening to..& so many that know NOTHING about music or the artists, too lazy 2 do any research (checking, reading) b4 hand. Yes, these r not reactors, but instead: BLURTERS. Thank you 4 being the oasis in a desert of sand 4 brains!😱 Yes- -I feel better now; thank you 🤐
Another wonderful reaction to our star! She killed this! I miss her large dark brown Persian eyes. I hope she gets past the blue lens stage soon. How beautiful are her wee cousins and her sister, Juliette, growing up! I love how she includes family when she can.
Angelina and Rob Christie have the same love for music, a perfect match. There is an interview with Rob, 3/4 years old, on YT, a very interesting one, which might be one of the reasons her team went with Republic Records (he is the Studio director at their LA office). YT will be flooded with Angelina soon, she is giving 3 concerts in Norway, and performed at Allsang På Grensen yesterday’s tv. Concerts in Japan, also. It’s the start …
I vote that Angelina rearrange and sing every song that has ever been released, and of course still blessing us with her originals. Damn, she's going to be a busy girl. 🙂
@@Hundhammer G'day Dominik. I don't think it's a case of Angelina improving what is already an amazing song, but the fact that she is able to give us a different type of emotion for the lyrics and melodies of that song. The beauty of a good cover is that we then have not one, but two amazing interpretations to enjoy. 🙂
@@marks4177 I got that, my comment was a bit ironic, as was yours, I meant to say there are many songs out there which even Angelina couldn't help... I mean, she really succeeded in having me love a song I didn't like that much in the original, but if I think about things like "I'm too sexy for my shirt, too sexy for my body..." or some mumble rap or death metal... I don't want to hear those, neither in the original nor in Angelina's version. Not every song is even worth of Angelina's care, jm2c...
@@Hundhammer I wouldn't be surprised if Angelina could change that type music into something people like us could enjoy. I don't necessarily think that type of music is bad, it's just that it's not for me.🙂
Thank you for another insightful reaction. The executive producer is her grandmother , the youngest children are her cousins and the oldest girl is Angelina’s younger sister. I love how they are keeping it all in the family. I have been following your reactions for a little over a year now and keep coming back for more. Thanks again 😊
Thank you for your heartfelt reaction video. I’ve been following Angelina since she was 7 years old, I attended several of her concerts and have seen her progress over the years. As a 68 years old who has been involved in music from a very young age, I can tell you that she is the most captivating and hypnotizing artist that I have seen and listened to. Her voice, her versatility, her understanding of music, her humbleness, and her technical abilities make her a force to be reckoned with. She has been attacking old classics like a baseball home runs champion and been hitting them so far and high that they been caught by astronauts in the Space Station. I’ll be at her concert in Norway in July and I can’t help but feel like a proud grandpa. Thank you Miss Angelina Jordan for filling my heart among millions other hearts with joy and love.
Her Beehive hairdo was an homage to Priscilla. Many photographs of her hair just like that. A Leather outfit he later wore. The guitar is actually Elvis‘s 1968 “Comeback” Guitar! The two young children are her cousins, her Uncle Michael’s children, the older girl is her sister Juliette. 🌺
Yes , many symbolisms. The hairstyle is what Priscilla Presley wore. The black leather outfit and the red guitar are a tribute to what Elvis wore on his comeback tour. The piano starts as Angelina is removing the dusty cover (dusting old songs). Her baby cousin represents the innocence that we are all born with. Her other cousin running around and looking up represents the curiosity and bewilderment of discovering new things. Her sister Juliette looking regal sitting on an antique chair represents the hope and the dreams of what of what and where she wants to be (The Queen of Music on her Throne). And then Angelina as a 16 years old looking like a rock star as if she is saying.: I arrived and I belong here with the best. These are my interpretations. Regardless, Angelina in my eyes is and has been a Superstar for a very long time. Thank you for your genuine reaction and analysis and I look forward to your next Angelina’s reaction video.
She is a fantastic vocalist and song bird. I’ve been watching her since she was a little girl. She is absolutely beautiful!!! She knows how to make a song her own!!!
A lot of great observations as usual Adam. The vocals in this were spectacular but the word that keeps coming to me is congruence. This is a song about a tragic disfunction, jealousy, so instead leaving it upbeat and poppy like Elvis she slows it right down and makes it pleading and regretful. And so the mood supports the lyric and message of the song, and the circle of communication is complete.
This comes out along side the debut of Baz Lurhmans movie Elvis. From what ive read this is Elvis’s leathers and guitar from 68 live. Remember she’s sixfeet tall. She has big names showing up for her. This career is gonna be good
Some people ask why we love this girl so much...? Can I say that you have to be quite close to be allowed to play with my emotions the way she does, at least for me.. 🤗 And she draws me into her world.
Hi Adam, you are full of praise for Angelina and how brilliantly she arranged the song. You're right. It's a new level of Angelina. She takes a big song and alters it according to her imagination. This time the original is almost unrecognizable. But her version is great. Really great. Angelina's version is somehow calmer and yet very emotional. Isn't it also a bit more modern? I think she updated it for today. Watching Angelina "grow" is also a nice idea. Elvis probably still had hope for the relationship. Angina makes it sound so sad, like she's done with the relationship. I think that's the difference. But please keep in mind that she is only 16 years old. How good should/can Angelina still be? She has at least 10 years until she has had enough experience to reach the pinnacle of her work. And if she should then keep the level for another 20 years.... We expect something new and extraordinary from her every time. So far she has not only been able to withstand this pressure, she has always met our expectations. AURORA also has a new song: - Qing Feng Wu, AURORA - ‘Storm’(English Version) Official Music Video 4K - ua-cam.com/video/KkJI57RL0d4/v-deo.html Have a nice weekend and Greetings from Germany
Exactly. She not only makes it her own - but puts a whole new and deeper spin on the lyrics. Stunningly good at 16... And from here? Already carving her place in musical history.
Adam. So many reactions to this I forgot you even existed. Angelina is getting so popular now new reactors are popping up daily. But I know you have been on this train for awhile and I've always felt you have some of the best observations and analysis of all reactors who have been on this train for a while. Love your comments. Welcome back. She does play piano, guitar, flute and several other instruments and though she's no virtuoso in them right now I am sure by the time her career starts to reach her peak I have no doubt she will be accomplished in several if not many of them. So nice to see your thoughtful analysis of our young Barefoot Princess. Did you notice that right foot raise it''s heal to cradle the guitar a couple of times in the performance. I was waiting for her to throw in a little shake to it in homage to the King. Could that have been intentional? That is Rob Christie on piano. Sister Juliette and a couple of Uncle Michael's Babies. I think that makes them cousins not nieces. Full Black Leather Bodysuit, the guitar from his concert in 68 and the hair a homage to Priscilla Presley. Yeah! She brings tears to your eyes don't she? Epic. Incredible. There are no words. Epic! Wow, Wow, Wow! Could it be more Beautiful? ♥👣👸🏻🎷 Yeah she doing a Concert in Norway this month! Album to drop soon! So much to look forward to.♥👣👸🏻🎷
Fantastic analysis of Angelina’s masterpiece. As she often does, she reinvented the Elvis Classic. This young lady is an artistic genius. Thanks for a great reaction.
This music video is so well made, with all it`s details! And Angelina`s voice is making it into a masterpiece the world has never seen or heard of this epic Elvis` song. I am so impressed! And proud to be one of Angelina`s angels! Thank you, Adam, great to see you again 😊
Thanks Adam, Angelina continuing to let me rest my case why she is my favorite. She proves what I started saying right after I discovered her over a couple of years ago, Angelina was born to sing with that voice of quality and variety. One of a kind human with a one of a kind heart. Thumbs up sir, appreciate your time.
Adam: There are fans who insist she can play multiple instruments, but she has been seen and heard on video playing electric guitar and various keyboards ... notably (for me) the extraordinarily original accompaniment to her stunning version of Chris Issak's 'Wicked Game'. AJ has just released the first single from her debut album from Republic Records, 'Love Don't Let Me Go', so we'll all be looking forward to your reaction review! R (Australia & Newcastle Upon Tyne)
Angelina‘s grandma was executive producer on this video. This cover was a great tribute to Elvis as she wore leather, sported a guitar, & had blue suede shoes on. You can see them when she’s laying on the loveseat. Also she wore her hair like Priscilla often wore it when she was married to Elvis Presley ♥️🇨🇦♥️
Republic Records is such a great fit for her. They're not trying to change her, but they're absolutely facilitating. She has such a strong sense of what she wants and it's wonderful they're not messing with that. Seriously, Simon Cowell would have been a disaster for her. She shines most to me with simple accompaniment, just a piano, or a guitar. Don't know if she plays guitar, but I'm fairly sure I've seen her play piano.
These reAction videos and all the comments are really important as well. Record labels are now paying attention to social media in ways they weren’t before. Because they know artists can independently grow a fan base, which Angelina did. They know they need to keep that base happy and that means not screwing up what works with Angelina.
Hi Adam. Another insightful and authentic reaction to Angelina. When we address Angelina Jordan as a musical "genius" we have to realize that this permits her to always be one step beyond what we think is possible. In the movie "Amadeus", court composer Salieri complains that God only gave him the ability, beyond all men, to recognize Mozart"s genius but never to fully understand it himself. This song should be a reminder that we will never quite "catch up" to Angelina's musicality. Her genius permits her to think in ways that others would never suspect.
Exactly, I have been saying since the very recent beginning of my discovering Angelina, she is destined to create new sounds we have never heard nor anyone has ever imagined before.
Hi there - i watched it abot 20 or more Times in a row from her channel and now jump from one reaction to the next and always be able to see her again - oh man i hope she will do this song on her last concert where i will be screeming like a Teenager if not fade out when seeing her enter the stage - i am so proud of her feel mooved and am overwhealmed by the sheer beauty of her music and the outstandig Video production with little Cousins Athena (sry dont get the name of baby cousin) and Juliette - i think the 3 Girls represanting Angelina as a child growing up surroundet by classics - she was born in the music from the days and still stays there with wonder in her eyes - damn she continously make this music current relevant and Show it at its best to All Generations- love you guys god bless and protect you
This is the same store from 'My Funny Valentine'. The girls, the two youngest were her nieces, The older girl is 'The Love Of Angelina's Life, her sister Juliette. Grandma Mery was the executive producer. The black leathers were a nod to his world-wide broadcast of his comeback in '68. The red guitar everything was similar but the head stock. this guitar had the famous Fender profile, Elvis used a Gibson ES335, it's head stock is more rectangular. She also is putting out glimpses of her concert in Olso that was yesterday or the day before. I'll give you the link to 'I Have Nothing. It is great to see you again. I saw your announcement video very sweet. I am also giving you Angelina's TikTok version of Adele's 'Love Is A Game' still is my favorite because it signaled a change. Angelina is becoming a woman. The first line delivery in this current song, is sublime. The strength and controlled power as well as how it was delivered put me in mind that Angelina is becoming a woman right before our very eyes and ears. I got a glimpse of it on her Adele cover above. Thanks for your reaction. You always have great things to say. Enjoy the links. ua-cam.com/video/AqtIVYFjapQ/v-deo.html Angelina at her concert in Oslo at 16 yrs. old. ua-cam.com/video/MzGEz9y_tAI/v-deo.html Angelina at 16 Adele's 'Love Is A Game'
Speechless...what a mini masterpiece....from the very opening...this is something else......another level... an incredible synthesis of so many things... Wow.....to create this...to unveil...a diamond in the jewel of a song....Angelina Jordan.....the wonderment continues.... and you are absolutely right...beauty by any other name....you need to hear this again and again.....im lost for words...she is the real deal....Congratulations AJ. and thank you for your well thought assessment ..Spot on...
Hi Adam agree with 200% this was absolutely intoxicating she is was low very sultry fabulous what a special girl she is the children were her relatives well thought out marvellous absolutely beautiful.
Very beautiful reaction, Adam, she i simply magic and amazing, over any words. Angelina has always been wonderfully engaging, but now her voice gets warmer and deeper each time and her slower version of this iconic song is truly fantastic, much closer to the emotion of the lyrics than Elvis's version. Elegant and very sweet, she really enters her our heart. I also infinitely love her fantastic family that is so close to her, this video is truly a wonderful little work of art, so full of sweet references to the Elvis persona ! 💛🧡❤️
Elvis recorded more than 600 songs in his music career but did not write a single song (impossible to confirm, but he was given co-writing credit on many songs because his label demanded songwriters give up 50% of the credit before Presley would record it). Mark James wrote it.
She is stunning and special. I just listened to "I have nothing" cover at Allsang på Grensen 2022. Look it up and listen to it.. Her voice is richer and you can tell the maturity of her voice compare to when she sang the song when she was 12. Not sure if you can do reaction to it, but just want to let you know. Also, please do reaction to Aurora & Qing Feng Wu - "Storm" and Sondre Lerche & Aurora - "Alone in the night" Thanks, Adam. Have a great weekend!
Angelina never ceases to amaze me, at just how incredibly talented she is, and that she can take her voice to newer levels, we have never heard before.....there is something so special about her ability, to tell the songs story, allowing us to listen with a new perspective, and hear & feel emotions, we may not have heard from the original artist 💖💖💖 Not only her voice, but her delivery is also her gift!
Thanks for the reaction. I'm going to explain the concept a bit to the Angels community (I love them so much). Angelina is personalizing Priscilla Presley, that is, Priscilla Presley is singing to Elvis Presley, she is telling him her feelings. It's a different approach and magic happens. The little girl walking and then growing up later becomes Priscilla Presley with a heartbreaking testimony telling Elvis how she feels. A work of art in all its splendor thanks to Angelina's grandmother, every day I am more amazed at Mery Zamani I can tell all the Angels that Mery Zamani should be supported by all of us in the comments and giving her a lot of love since she makes a silent work, more than a job is creating Art giving multidimensionality to Angelina's music, thanks Mery!
sandy Those weren't blue suede shoes (which didn't rise to the ankle and didn't have a heel). They were silver boots which, if you look up Angelina Jordan and Obama on google images, you'll see those same boots.....Also, you didn't mention Rob's (the pianist) red suit matching Elvis' bandmates on his 1968 comeback performance.
Thank you for the reaction! The “My Funny Valentine” store. I believe AJ does play the guitar, and possibly piano (Republic Records’ Rob Christie on piano here) and violin. I think the kids in the video are her brother’s. And, of course, her sister Juliette.
@Robin Unger Sorry, that was a little unclear on my part. I meant Angelina’s brother, Michael’s children (“her brother’s [kids]”). Need to go back and look for videos where she plays the piano. Cheers. :)
Great reaction and analysis! What a rendition! Her Gandma Mery produced this. Looks like she used the same store she used for her My Funny Valentine video! Her sister Juliette was the older girl. The 2 younger girls are her Uncle Mike's kids, and, of course, 2 time Grammy winner Rob Christie on piano. What a great cover! The beehive hairstyle was to honor Priscilla Presley and the time period she met Elvis. I was not expecting this! Funny thing is, this was almost 4 minutes, but it flew by and felt short! Going to listen to it again! 16 years old….Wow!!! What a performance! She does know how to play a number of instruments. The guitar she has been learning recently. She knows how to play piano, violin, and flute....
Adam I Love ❤️ watching your Reaction watching her! You are So Right On with your Opinion of this Cover!! Well said! And she’s Definitely A Star ⭐️
Angelina plays piano, guitar, violin, and flute. Her grandmother, Mery Zamani, has been her mentor as a painter. At age 9, she wrote a book about her encounter with a homeless girl about her age (6 at the time) who had no shoes. Angelina took off her own shoes and gave them to the other girl. She became the youngest published author in the history of Norway. All proceeds of her book go to children's charities. She is, as her name implies, angelic.
Angelina is the female softer version of American Idol singer Adam Lambert. Like him, she can switch up a song, and make it her own. Genious.
hard work + hard work+huge talent = angelina
OMGoodness--AJ should totally do "Betty Davis Eyes!" Would love to see what she would do with this tune!!
What do you think??! 🙂
We are now at 2.2 Million views of this performance in just over 2 months.
Angelina’s tribute to Elvis was perfection.Angelina was dressed in black leather as a tribute to the Elvis 1968 Come Back Special he wore black leather and the guitar 🎸 he was playing in 68 is Elvis’s own guitar 🎸 and that guitar Angelina had yes it was the real thing it was Elvis’s own guitar how brilliant is that . The little girls are Angelina’s cousins her uncle Michaels daughters and the older girl is Angelina’s sister Juliette. My 2 favourite singers of all time is off course Elvis and Angelina so this made me very happy.great reaction Love from Denise in Yorkshire 👼👸🏻🦶🦶👏👏👏🎸🎸😘👋
Absolutely beautiful her voice captivates you low notes draws you in ,th children were her relatives and arranged by her grandmother how wonderful is that best song from her yet could listen to this over and over again.the hair is from priscilla the leathers elvis marvellous suspicious minds out of this world.
Thank you! Greatings from an old Danish Dear and Angel ⚘⚘⚘
Hello Adam,yes she played on house of the rising sun.and she plays piano. I saw your eyes open further as AJ started to sing yes you were captured again.love your videos.
Wow, she is amazing
You are Norways best reactor.
Not many people know "Suspicious Minds" is a 1968 song written and first recorded by American songwriter Mark James. Elvis done a cover and made it popular. I think I like AJs version better.
It was a pleasure watching this reaction from you.
Another great reaction. She is a storyteller, you can hear a song and covers of a song, but when she tells it, it's like you've never heard it before!
Angelina is a gift for us all, musically adept and emotionally able to translate in her own manner melodies of any age. She's performed, Billy Holiday, Sinatra, Elton John, Freddie Mercury, Elvis Presley with such ease that we have to accept that this little lady was born with a gift that we have to accept. We have to accept she can translate song. But we have to accept she can create her own version of melodies that make her unique. She can master the Masters and she can create her own masterpiece sound as well. Yes! We should be able to recognize that this young girl can produce a sound so unique and special that will add to the masterpieces of artistry that deserve to be written down in history. She's proven her worth since her local Norwegian challenge and she continues to work and sacrifice her own sound just to reach us all with a humble dedication to music. She's a devoted musician and I for one am an aware fan, despite her young age. I truly back her success and wish her the best of luck in the music business that is promoted by totally different ideals and goals. I hope that her fans are able to make an impact in her musical contribution to real music. She deserves the honor that musicians are born to receive.
She has been playing the guitar a lot in her recent tik tok videos
Beautifully said. Perfect analysis.
I have seen her play piano & guitar
The girls are her little cousins and the older one is her little sister Juliette, but in the video they represent Lisa Marie Presley growing up.
I listen 2 this video/this artist many times everyday. I am so hoping 2 see her in concert. Love this version by AJ..She has tailored this elegantly, confidently
& lovingly..Beautiful.🧡
This is a classic best cover of this song by the king the queen has done it again what talent this young lady has I just love aj she is a gift from god
Her grandmother is the artistic producer of this video.
The most beautiful girl in the world is also the most beautiful singer in the world. Wow.
Very different from Elvis’, softer, gentler. I put off playing this because I didn’t like the belting, to me harsher, way Elvis sang it.
I should have been braver. She always makes it her own. Exquisite. Beautiful.
I have seen Angelina play guitar while singing her TicToc clips
The Queen paid homage to the King.
I feel safe in saying that Elvis would have been incredibly impressed and proud of the production, the arrangement, how beautifully Angelina sung his song and how pianist, Rob Christie accompanied her.
There is gold. There is platinum. There is diamond. Angelina is a very rare precious gem. To say that this performance is stunning is a gross understatement. Mesmerizing, captivating, hypnotic and magnetic barely suffice in describing what listening to the cover does to me.
That's good. From now on try not to pepper your speech with so many trite cliches.
@@jeffstumpf9129 Try refraining from positioning yourself as being smug, sarcastic and insulting.
These are well chosen words, I felt them too. Stiff upper lip English is still limited, even with its vast vocabulary, to describe Angelina and reading endless comments we hear people struggling to put feelings to words. You did well.
Did you know that Angelina plays the piano, guitar, violin, flute, and also paints?
The difference between Angelina and Elvis is that Elvis is playing around while Angelina means what she sings.
I think Elvis has some incredible performances which are high energy, but still meaningful. Especially a lot of the songs he wrote/co-wrote
Did you notice the children came in about the time the lyrics communicated too much to lose. I think she brought in the children to foreshadow that for families this kind of tragedy ruins more hearts than two.
Angelina has her own stratosphere of music and talent. She orbits hearts with her sensitive zeal. Scintillating magnitude.
Reinvention = masterwork.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Angelina at 16 is the MASTER of her universe, she is top priority for both Stargate, and Rob Christie Republic Records Studio Director at Universal Music Group Manhattan Beach, California. Rob has been playing the piano on most of AJ's studio production performances.
Angelina plays guitar, piano, flute and violin. None of them necessarily with tremendous facility, but she does know how to play them! The oldest of the three girls featured in the video was Angelina's little sister (and per Angelina, the love of her life), Juliette, the toddler with the amazing curly brown hair was her cousin, Athena, and the little one is Athena's younger sister, whom I've not seen before. Of course she's the newest addition to the extended family! They are Angelina's uncle's kids. Her uncle Michael, who is also her manager. Executive producer was Mery Zamani, who is Angelina's maternal grandmother. She was a prodigy herself as a poet, writer and painter. She taught Angelina the language, Farsi, which Angelina is fluent in along with Norwegian and English. She is also credited with introducing Angelina to many of the greats of Jazz when Angelina first showed an interest in that particular genre of singing. She is enormously important to Angelina! In terns of this song, I never really liked Elvis's version of it. Angelina did a "frame off restoration" of this song! She literally stripped it down to it's framework, and built it back from the ground up and created a recording I honestly enjoy! Simply Genius! Plus, when you include the nod to Priscilla Presley with the beehive hairdo, and the Tip of the hat to the king with the black leather outfit and red semi solid body guitar a'la his 1968 Comeback Special, well the homage is complete! I love your reactions, and I wish you and all of the people you love in your life, peace, joy and love!
Angelina’s younger cousin is featured in one of Angelina’s recent TikTok videos - hidden and revealed from under Angelina’s sweatshirt jacket.
She plays both Electric & classical guitar.
Piano is probably her first instrument. She has posted covers where she plays keyboards since she was twelve. Lately she has played electric guitar in several TikTok clips, and she has improved notably over the last year or so. I suspect that her goal is to play both instruments on stage in the future.
Regarding violin and flute, I believe that comes from a very old interview about the music school she attended before going on NGT, and it’s possible that she hasn’t touched either in many years. The idea that she plays those instruments is part of the fan mythology by now.
Since Mery is credited as producer, it also means she is receiving a paycheck. Kudos to Republic Records for looking after this detail.
That was great, and very detailed info Roger. And thank you for that. Regarding musical instruments that she plays, I don't think she has done anything with the violin and flute since she was a young child. But it appears she is committed to becoming proficient with piano and guitar, both acoustic and electric. Mostly chords to accompany her vocals, and she is becoming more confident with both. Concerning this performance, the symbolism was everywhere---hairdo, clothing, guitar, antique store, children, etc. From the very first line of the song, her performance is Absolutely STUNNING!! 10+
Elvis Tirbute THE KING! Done by none other then Miss ANGELINA JORDAN THE QUEEN. She is part of the ELVIS movie sound tract, hence, dressed for the era, she is with he blue swayed shoes, basically a female version of Elvis look. The children in video are her family members. Nicely collaborated to demonstrate various phases of her growing up into the BEAUTY SHE IS. BRILLIANT! I could see AJ in the Movies. She is an Artist on so many different levels.
Rob Christie Playing Piano:
That dude playing the piano is Rob Christie Republic Records Studio Director at Universal Music Group Manhattan Beach, California, and he has been working with AJ since she signed with the largest record company in the world at the age of 14, two years ago. Rob was the MC of AJ Christmas Show that aired Dec 23, of 21. AJ’s Christmas Show that live-streamed on Dec 23 of 21 had some of the most important musicians of our time: Frank Sinatra's drummer for 6 years, and sun in-law of the late Henry Mancini, Greg Field has won 9 Grammys, and the bass player, Chuck Berghofer who also played for Sinatra for 6 years, and toured with Barbara Streisand, accompanied AJ on her Christmas Show, and they stated that she had the "storytelling ability of the greats, Streisand, Fitzgerald, Vaughan, including Sinatra, to name a few. The main pianist, a five-time nominated for Grammys, Shelly Berg, stated in all his years working with the greatest vocalist, he had never encountered a talent like AJ. Did I forget to mention Jimmy Z, the famous Sax Player who worked with Rod Steward, Etta James, the Eurythmics, and Doctor Dre, was part of the band for the show? Jimmy stated that AJ was the best he has ever played for. Rob Christie Republic Records Studio Director at Universal Music Group Manhattan Beach, California played the guitar, and was the MC of the show. (I can't list the complete backgrounds on all the band members because it would take several pages to do them justice.) Angelina stated that she would rather perform than take a breath, and she has never been forced to perform, it has been her decision.
Adam, you are my first and favorite Angelina reacter. I found her through you ages ago. Thank you! I In this video I did not understand all the metaphors of the antique shop, to me, until I had seen it 5 or 6 times. I’m sorry if someone said this already. First of all, she un”covered” the King’s throne, then the mirror which is used repeatedly to show her reflecting the original and reflecting on the original. Finally, the cloth over the piano was dusty, as she “dusted off an old classic.” Her grandmother, Mery Zamani, was the executive producer and I’m sure was the artist behind the set.
Angelina Jordan Astar is my favorite singer storyteller.
Angelina sings as sweet as she's beautiful. Bless Her 💖💓
Angelina Jordan Astar, for me she is the best singer of the last 50 years. Her voice touches my heart and cleanses my soul.
Has anyone noticed the piano entry and ending is from the song “love of my life “?
you are so right, I suddenly feel I am hearing this for the first time, and I love Elvis
She's made it a very intimate love song
You cannot know how refreshing your reactions are...so many of these 'reactors' have nothing intelligent to say or add, have the intuitivity of a boot, and
an ego that tells them 'they' are the important one & 'not' the videos they are supposed 2 be listening to..& so many that know NOTHING about music or the artists, too lazy 2 do any research
(checking, reading) b4 hand.
Yes, these r not reactors, but instead:
BLURTERS.
Thank you 4 being the oasis in a desert
of sand 4 brains!😱
Yes- -I feel better now; thank you 🤐
Another wonderful reaction to our star! She killed this! I miss her large dark brown Persian eyes. I hope she gets past the blue lens stage soon. How beautiful are her wee cousins and her sister, Juliette, growing up! I love how she includes family when she can.
Hi, I enjoyed your video.That's great. Thank you😆💞🎁
I’ve seen her play guitar in some of her tik tak video. Piano I think is her strength. Also heard she plays violin but have not seen it
Angelina and Rob Christie have the same love for music, a perfect match. There is an interview with Rob, 3/4 years old, on YT, a very interesting one, which might be one of the reasons her team went with Republic Records (he is the Studio director at their LA office).
YT will be flooded with Angelina soon, she is giving 3 concerts in Norway, and performed at Allsang På Grensen yesterday’s tv. Concerts in Japan, also. It’s the start …
She strips down to the basil emotional simplicity as only she can with her artistry. Masterpiece without corruption of the great original. Thanks
I vote that Angelina rearrange and sing every song that has ever been released, and of course still blessing us with her originals. Damn, she's going to be a busy girl. 🙂
😂😂 I'm here for that!
Well, imo there are a few songs which she might leave away, because where's nothing there's nothing to improve about it...
@@Hundhammer G'day Dominik. I don't think it's a case of Angelina improving what is already an amazing song, but the fact that she is able to give us a different type of emotion for the lyrics and melodies of that song. The beauty of a good cover is that we then have not one, but two amazing interpretations to enjoy. 🙂
@@marks4177 I got that, my comment was a bit ironic, as was yours, I meant to say there are many songs out there which even Angelina couldn't help... I mean, she really succeeded in having me love a song I didn't like that much in the original, but if I think about things like "I'm too sexy for my shirt, too sexy for my body..." or some mumble rap or death metal... I don't want to hear those, neither in the original nor in Angelina's version. Not every song is even worth of Angelina's care, jm2c...
@@Hundhammer I wouldn't be surprised if Angelina could change that type music into something people like us could enjoy. I don't necessarily think that type of music is bad, it's just that it's not for me.🙂
Thank you for another insightful reaction. The executive producer is her grandmother , the youngest children are her cousins and the oldest girl is Angelina’s younger sister. I love how they are keeping it all in the family. I have been following your reactions for a little over a year now and keep coming back for more. Thanks again 😊
Thank you for your heartfelt reaction video.
I’ve been following Angelina since she was 7 years old, I attended several of her concerts and have seen her progress over the years. As a 68 years old who has been involved in music from a very young age, I can tell you that she is the most captivating and hypnotizing artist that I have seen and listened to. Her voice, her versatility, her understanding of music, her humbleness, and her technical abilities make her a force to be reckoned with. She has been attacking old classics like a baseball home runs champion and been hitting them so far and high that they been caught by astronauts in the Space Station.
I’ll be at her concert in Norway in July and I can’t help but feel like a proud grandpa.
Thank you Miss Angelina Jordan for filling my heart among millions other hearts with joy and love.
AMEN!
Her Beehive hairdo was an homage to Priscilla. Many photographs of her hair just like that. A Leather outfit he later wore. The guitar is actually Elvis‘s 1968 “Comeback” Guitar! The two young children are her cousins, her Uncle Michael’s children, the older girl is her sister Juliette. 🌺
Yes , many symbolisms. The hairstyle is what Priscilla Presley wore. The black leather outfit and the red guitar are a tribute to what Elvis wore on his comeback tour. The piano starts as Angelina is removing the dusty cover (dusting old songs). Her baby cousin represents the innocence that we are all born with. Her other cousin running around and looking up represents the curiosity and bewilderment of discovering new things. Her sister Juliette looking regal sitting on an antique chair represents the hope and the dreams of what of what and where she wants to be (The Queen of Music on her Throne). And then Angelina as a 16 years old looking like a rock star as if she is saying.: I arrived and I belong here with the best.
These are my interpretations. Regardless, Angelina in my eyes is and has been a Superstar for a very long time.
Thank you for your genuine reaction and analysis and I look forward to your next Angelina’s reaction video.
Adam, Angelina’s grandma, Mery Zamani is the executive producer of this video.
She is a fantastic vocalist and song bird. I’ve been watching her since she was a little girl. She is absolutely beautiful!!! She knows how to make a song her own!!!
I like what you said, "you appreciate the story of the song a lot more."
A lot of great observations as usual Adam. The vocals in this were spectacular but the word that keeps coming to me is congruence. This is a song about a tragic disfunction, jealousy, so instead leaving it upbeat and poppy like Elvis she slows it right down and makes it pleading and regretful. And so the mood supports the lyric and message of the song, and the circle of communication is complete.
This comes out along side the debut of Baz Lurhmans movie Elvis. From what ive read this is Elvis’s leathers and guitar from 68 live. Remember she’s sixfeet tall. She has big names showing up for her. This career is gonna be good
There's some videos Angelina playing guitar on her TikTok channel.
Some people ask why we love this girl so much...? Can I say that you have to be quite close to be allowed to play with my emotions the way she does, at least for me.. 🤗 And she draws me into her world.
Hi Adam, you are full of praise for Angelina and how brilliantly she arranged the song. You're right. It's a new level of Angelina.
She takes a big song and alters it according to her imagination. This time the original is almost unrecognizable. But her version is great. Really great. Angelina's version is somehow calmer and yet very emotional. Isn't it also a bit more modern? I think she updated it for today. Watching Angelina "grow" is also a nice idea.
Elvis probably still had hope for the relationship. Angina makes it sound so sad, like she's done with the relationship. I think that's the difference.
But please keep in mind that she is only 16 years old. How good should/can Angelina still be? She has at least 10 years until she has had enough experience to reach the pinnacle of her work. And if she should then keep the level for another 20 years....
We expect something new and extraordinary from her every time. So far she has not only been able to withstand this pressure, she has always met our expectations.
AURORA also has a new song:
- Qing Feng Wu, AURORA - ‘Storm’(English Version) Official Music Video 4K - ua-cam.com/video/KkJI57RL0d4/v-deo.html
Have a nice weekend and
Greetings from Germany
Exactly. She not only makes it her own - but puts a whole new and deeper spin on the lyrics.
Stunningly good at 16... And from here? Already carving her place in musical history.
I'm with you in everything you say.
Adam. So many reactions to this I forgot you even existed. Angelina is getting so popular now new reactors are popping up daily. But I know you have been on this train for awhile and I've always felt you have some of the best observations and analysis of all reactors who have been on this train for a while. Love your comments.
Welcome back. She does play piano, guitar, flute and several other instruments and though she's no virtuoso in them right now I am sure by the time her career starts to reach her peak I have no doubt she will be accomplished in several if not many of them.
So nice to see your thoughtful analysis of our young Barefoot Princess.
Did you notice that right foot raise it''s heal to cradle the guitar a couple of times in the performance. I was waiting for her to throw in a little shake to it in homage to the King. Could that have been intentional?
That is Rob Christie on piano. Sister Juliette and a couple of Uncle Michael's Babies. I think that makes them cousins not nieces. Full Black Leather Bodysuit, the guitar from his concert in 68 and the hair a homage to Priscilla Presley.
Yeah! She brings tears to your eyes don't she? Epic. Incredible. There are no words. Epic! Wow, Wow, Wow! Could it be more Beautiful? ♥👣👸🏻🎷
Yeah she doing a Concert in Norway this month! Album to drop soon! So much to look forward to.♥👣👸🏻🎷
Couldn't have said it better. Just phenomenal
Spor on 👌
Angelina is hypnotic!! Love her!!❤️
Fantastic analysis of Angelina’s masterpiece. As she often does, she reinvented the Elvis Classic. This young lady is an artistic genius. Thanks for a great reaction.
No one can stop her! In two or three years she will eat other artists for breakfast. 😊😊😊😊👌👌👌👌
This music video is so well made, with all it`s details! And Angelina`s voice is making it into a masterpiece the world has never seen or heard of this epic Elvis` song. I am so impressed! And proud to be one of Angelina`s angels! Thank you, Adam, great to see you again 😊
Thanks Adam, Angelina continuing to let me rest my case why she is my favorite. She proves what I started saying right after I discovered her over a couple of years ago, Angelina was born to sing with that voice of quality and variety. One of a kind human with a one of a kind heart. Thumbs up sir, appreciate your time.
Angelina is by far the best musical storyteller over ever heard in my life.
Adam: There are fans who insist she can play multiple instruments, but she has been seen and heard on video playing electric guitar and various keyboards ... notably (for me) the extraordinarily original accompaniment to her stunning version of Chris Issak's 'Wicked Game'. AJ has just released the first single from her debut album from Republic Records, 'Love Don't Let Me Go', so we'll all be looking forward to your reaction review! R (Australia & Newcastle Upon Tyne)
Elvis was not the first to do the song his was a cover but he owned it until this. We shall see how long AJ owns it.
Thanks for sharing
Angelina‘s grandma was executive producer on this video. This cover was a great tribute to Elvis as she wore leather, sported a guitar, & had blue suede shoes on. You can see them when she’s laying on the loveseat. Also she wore her hair like Priscilla often wore it when she was married to Elvis Presley ♥️🇨🇦♥️
Republic Records is such a great fit for her. They're not trying to change her, but they're absolutely facilitating. She has such a strong sense of what she wants and it's wonderful they're not messing with that. Seriously, Simon Cowell would have been a disaster for her.
She shines most to me with simple accompaniment, just a piano, or a guitar.
Don't know if she plays guitar, but I'm fairly sure I've seen her play piano.
She does play guitar, she has done it in her Tik Tok videos, as well as piano 😊
She plays the guitar on her short jamming of The House of The Rising Sun, on TikTok. And what a version it is .. !
Yes, she plays piano on “Wicked games” and “love on the brain” and plays guitar on”House of the rising sun”.
These reAction videos and all the comments are really important as well. Record labels are now paying attention to social media in ways they weren’t before. Because they know artists can independently grow a fan base, which Angelina did. They know they need to keep that base happy and that means not screwing up what works with Angelina.
Hi Adam. Another insightful and authentic reaction to Angelina. When we address Angelina Jordan as a musical "genius" we have to realize that this permits her to always be one step beyond what we think is possible. In the movie "Amadeus", court composer Salieri complains that God only gave him the ability, beyond all men, to recognize Mozart"s genius but never to fully understand it himself. This song should be a reminder that we will never quite "catch up" to Angelina's musicality. Her genius permits her to think in ways that others would never suspect.
Exactly, I have been saying since the very recent beginning of my discovering Angelina, she is destined to create new sounds we have never heard nor anyone has ever imagined before.
Love this versjon
Hi there - i watched it abot 20 or more Times in a row from her channel and now jump from one reaction to the next and always be able to see her again - oh man i hope she will do this song on her last concert where i will be screeming like a Teenager if not fade out when seeing her enter the stage - i am so proud of her feel mooved and am overwhealmed by the sheer beauty of her music and the outstandig Video production with little Cousins Athena (sry dont get the name of baby cousin) and Juliette - i think the 3 Girls represanting Angelina as a child growing up surroundet by classics - she was born in the music from the days and still stays there with wonder in her eyes - damn she continously make this music current relevant and Show it at its best to All Generations- love you guys god bless and protect you
The littlest one is named Aurora 😇
@@mrstlu4838 thank you
@@mrstlu4838 Thank you for that. As of yesterday, I was temporarily calling her Jane Doe Astar lol :-)
This is the same store from 'My Funny Valentine'. The girls, the two youngest were her nieces, The older girl is 'The Love Of Angelina's Life, her sister Juliette. Grandma Mery was the executive producer. The black leathers were a nod to his world-wide broadcast of his comeback in '68. The red guitar everything was similar but the head stock. this guitar had the famous Fender profile, Elvis used a Gibson ES335, it's head stock is more rectangular. She also is putting out glimpses of her concert in Olso that was yesterday or the day before. I'll give you the link to 'I Have Nothing.
It is great to see you again. I saw your announcement video very sweet.
I am also giving you Angelina's TikTok version of Adele's 'Love Is A Game' still is my favorite because it signaled a change. Angelina is becoming a woman. The first line delivery in this current song, is sublime. The strength and controlled power as well as how it was delivered put me in mind that Angelina is becoming a woman right before our very eyes and ears. I got a glimpse of it on her Adele cover above.
Thanks for your reaction. You always have great things to say. Enjoy the links.

Speechless...what a mini masterpiece....from the very opening...this is something else......another level... an incredible synthesis of so many things... Wow.....to create this...to unveil...a diamond in the jewel of a song....Angelina Jordan.....the wonderment continues.... and you are absolutely right...beauty by any other name....you need to hear this again and again.....im lost for words...she is the real deal....Congratulations AJ. and thank you for your well thought assessment ..Spot on...
She's amazing. Wow wow wow
Genius to use the bridge as the intro and outro, and especially with the mystical arrangement that Rob Christie plays, a blending of two perfections!
Angelina is the greatest song improver ever
Hi Adam agree with 200% this was absolutely intoxicating she is was low very sultry fabulous what a special girl she is the children were her relatives well thought out marvellous absolutely beautiful.
Very beautiful reaction, Adam, she i simply magic and amazing, over any words. Angelina has always been wonderfully engaging, but now her voice gets warmer and deeper each time and her slower version of this iconic song is truly fantastic, much closer to the emotion of the lyrics than Elvis's version. Elegant and very sweet, she really enters her our heart. I also infinitely love her fantastic family that is so close to her, this video is truly a wonderful little work of art, so full of sweet references to the Elvis persona ! 💛🧡❤️
Elvis recorded more than 600 songs in his music career but did not write a single song (impossible to confirm, but he was given co-writing credit on many songs because his label demanded songwriters give up 50% of the credit before Presley would record it). Mark James wrote it.
My tears rolled down my cheeks at the very start of her singing. Amazing. Charo using my hubby’s a/c
Great reaction. Angelina is a special artist. We are very fortunate to listen her magic.
She is stunning and special. I just listened to "I have nothing" cover at Allsang på Grensen 2022. Look it up and listen to it.. Her voice is richer and you can tell the maturity of her voice compare to when she sang the song when she was 12. Not sure if you can do reaction to it, but just want to let you know. Also, please do reaction to Aurora & Qing Feng Wu - "Storm" and Sondre Lerche & Aurora - "Alone in the night" Thanks, Adam. Have a great weekend!
Here's Angelina's performance at the concert in Norway, so elegant: ua-cam.com/video/AqtIVYFjapQ/v-deo.html
Here you got the link
ua-cam.com/video/AqtIVYFjapQ/v-deo.html
beautiful performance. love her and your reaction. thank you.
Angelina draws you in "hypnotic" vocals. Great Elvis tributes
"Is she gone play that guitar, because I will lose my mind" .
She opened her mouth and you already lose your mind. 😁
Angelina never ceases to amaze me, at just how incredibly talented she is, and that she can take her voice to newer levels, we have never heard before.....there is something so special about her ability, to tell the songs story, allowing us to listen with a new perspective, and hear & feel emotions, we may not have heard from the original artist 💖💖💖 Not only her voice, but her delivery is also her gift!
Thanks for the reaction. I'm going to explain the concept a bit to the Angels community (I love them so much). Angelina is personalizing Priscilla Presley, that is, Priscilla Presley is singing to Elvis Presley, she is telling him her feelings. It's a different approach and magic happens. The little girl walking and then growing up later becomes Priscilla Presley with a heartbreaking testimony telling Elvis how she feels. A work of art in all its splendor thanks to Angelina's grandmother, every day I am more amazed at Mery Zamani I can tell all the Angels that Mery Zamani should be supported by all of us in the comments and giving her a lot of love since she makes a silent work, more than a job is creating Art giving multidimensionality to Angelina's music, thanks Mery!
❤️❤️❤️❤️👣 Her voice is developing into such a full, resonate, powerful and wonderful thing. Her young cousins and little sister here.
At the first notes I was KO ! Angelina's voice, Vidéo, sound, piano, clothes and hair, pretty littles girls, all is perfectly thought ❤
Beehive hairdo, black leather outfit, blue suede shoes, red guitar!!! Classy performance paying homage to Elvis. Classy performance, classy Angelina!
sandy Those weren't blue suede shoes (which didn't rise to the ankle and didn't have a heel). They were silver boots which, if you look up Angelina Jordan and Obama on google images, you'll see those same boots.....Also, you didn't mention Rob's (the pianist) red suit matching Elvis' bandmates on his 1968 comeback performance.

The “My Funny Valentine” store. I believe AJ does play the guitar, and possibly piano (Republic Records’ Rob Christie on piano here) and violin. I think the kids in the video are her brother’s. And, of course, her sister Juliette.
@Robin Unger Sorry, that was a little unclear on my part. I meant Angelina’s brother, Michael’s children (“her brother’s [kids]”). Need to go back and look for videos where she plays the piano. Cheers. :)
@@Nexus8VK Angelina does not have a brother. The one you're thinking about is her uncle Michael, her mother's brother (Sara).
Great reaction and analysis! What a rendition! Her Gandma Mery produced this. Looks like she used the same store she used for her My Funny Valentine video! Her sister Juliette was the older girl. The 2 younger girls are her Uncle Mike's kids, and, of course, 2 time Grammy winner Rob Christie on piano. What a great cover! The beehive hairstyle was to honor Priscilla Presley and the time period she met Elvis. I was not expecting this! Funny thing is, this was almost 4 minutes, but it flew by and felt short! Going to listen to it again! 16 years old….Wow!!! What a performance! She does know how to play a number of instruments. The guitar she has been learning recently. She knows how to play piano, violin, and flute....
