As always I need to thank you all for suggesting this particular video! So a great big thanks to @Christian-DH, @AJfanboy1, @Edam-Channel, @I_scribbles, @jacjacobsen1947, @ericdavison5434, @clmenterprises08, and @eddieramirez5300! I believe this is the youngest I've heard her yet and it was fascinating! ❤❤❤
I enjoyed your comments...there is a quality in Angelina's vocal that reflects her native talent, no question! I imagine this to be like other child prodigies, Mozart, and other classic artists. It is astounding nevertheless...and listening to her early work is never boring...she manages to bring new life to older songs each and every time...
Thank you kindly, Philip! I agree with you completely. Quite likely a common thing for child prodigies that they simply learn new stuff, but the original talent is visible from the very start... Quite a few songs I've heard by Angelina prove that in my view.
I was impressed with how she dealt with the review of what she had just sung. Yes she was not happy with the mistake but did not allow that to impact her performance. At the end she seemed pleased and handled it like a pro. Incidentally, as I understand it, her mother said she was an adult at 8 years of age. I also enjoyed your "Wrapped in a Warm Blanket" podcast. You will have to do that again some time.
Agree with you absolutely, both during the song and afterwards. Very serious and very adult about it in the best way possible. She is in her own category, for sure. 🥰 Thank you also for the podcast shoutout. Alan and I spoke and agreed to do another one, but it was I who asked for it to take place next season. I'm supposed to be a guest and as the saying here goes "svakog gosta tri dana dosta" - "every guest is welcome for three days" meaning, let me have my home to myself and some peace after that. Btw, it's just a saying, not really true. We tend to keep guests for weeks if they'll have us.
I marvel at the change in her demeanor as she goes through this song. It is indicative of the trajectory she has followed in improving her skills throughout her life.
I believe it is also an innate ability of hers, sort of came along with this immense talent. The rational personality simply following its instincts knowing it's the right thing to do... Again, I know this may be an unpopular opinion, but my view is that she was born to be what she is and is lucky to have a personality and support that enhance her talent, rather than ruin her life due to a great talent like many have before...
For me she, during this performance, is the most adorable seven year old on this earth (yes, seven, which I think time will prove correct, not six, obviously a much older women). She steals your heart and really, she never, ever, lets go. And most of us don't ever want that to happen, the letting go. She is and remains just too amazing.
To the best of my knowledge, this is a facility in the Oslo School of Music and Performance Arts she attended as a child, and the "Technician" is simply one of her teachers.
Enjoyed your reaction and agree with everything you said except her voice has become richer and deeper and it is truly a one of a kind female voice her voice sounds much like a version the great voice of Tom Jones and in some ways like Elvis,
Obviously, with simply growing up some changes will happen. Please do not take my comments too literally. What I meant was that she displays the same qualities regardless of age, maybe a bit more richness, maybe a bit deeper color, maybe a bit more control, but in essence, no huge changes... This happens with any great talent that is developed though the years... They start off great...
Thank you so much! I'm never sure if it is relevant feedback even, so I'm simply saying what I'm thinking in the moment. Glad to hear there is some value in it. ❤❤❤
Hello Aleks! It's a real treat to listen to this child.. her understanding of language, all the nuances words can have, even at this age she seems to 'know' which emotion is right for each word in the particular context she's singing. I don't even know if I make sense trying to explain how I think about her ability to convey feelings.. Anyway, thankyou for sharing your enjoyment of young Angelina with us.. she's certainly contagious 😅 ❤
Ah, some of the comments said it's amazing she can read - no overly amazing, to be perfectly open. However, I agree with you on the nuances words can have and which emotion works OR it's the emotion she heard in the original and knew how to make it happen again. Can't be sure on that score yet, but whatever the source of the emotion, her ability to convey it so young is truly amazing. ❤❤❤ Thank you so much!
@AleksReacts True! This little Norwegian girl is not only reading but reading and understanding and singing in English.. I can just wonder and be very thankful I can hear. ❤
yes I agree with every thing you said about this, to me in every performance she gets better and better. What I find fascinating is that you will see her reading the lyrics of lots of the songs she sings but still is able to impart the feeling & emotion of the song
Thank you, Patrick! I think she's simply made that way, which is somewhat astonishing in such a small child. Her ability to impart emotions is way beyond her years indeed.
One of the remarkable things about little Angelina is her remarkable growth, even from song to song. All adults who work with her, from the very beginning, have respected her seriousness and professionalism. Stunning that this is the case. There are plenty of videos showing this.
This seems to be rather an unpopular view, but I don't see growth. I see a girl who was born to be what she is, who experiences a new studio, new stage, new production team, new song, but nothing really that big that changes her. Just slight adjustments to new circumstances, while she stays the same. Perhaps I'm totally wrong, but that is what I see...
Aleks, I have enjoyed your well articulated reactions to Angelina’s performances since I discovered your channel. I watched your visit with the “Wrapped In a Warm Blanket” men. You impressed me with your intuitive observations and commentary. You have my deepest respect and admiration. I look forward to watching more of your reactions.
You're the first reactor I've seen that commented on that last expression she made and I'm glad to see it. I've always felt that, after the eye roll, she was then faking a collapse as if she was tired. I've always enjoyed your reactions!
Angelina The Barefoot Jazzy Queen with a hypnotic voice. Born Angelina Jordan Astar on January 10, 2006 in Oslo, Norway to her Norwegian mother, Sara Astar and her Swedish father, Gerry Christian Slattman. Angelina started singing around 18 months of age, after listening to Whitney Houston on UA-cam. She quickly became obsessed with listening to music videos and her maternal grandmother, Mery Zamani got Angelina interested in classic jazz. Mery Zamani is Iranian and was a prodigy as an artist and poet while growing up in Iran. Angelina attended the Oslo Waldorf School and participated in the Oslo School of Music and Performing Arts after-school program, where starting around age 4, she had training in music but no vocal training. Her teachers were smart enough to not attempt to change what she was doing vocally. More recently she along with her grandmother have designed and made the clothing she wears on stage. Why Angelina always performs barefoot At age 6, while traveling in the Middle East with her mother and grandmother, Angelina noticed a girl around her age standing on the side of the road, asking people to step on her bathroom scale to be weighed in hopes of getting some money. Angelina took off her shoes so as to not get the scale dirty and stepped on the scale many times to make the girl feel better. Angelina befriends the girl who was not wearing shoes and has scars on her feet, and learns she is an orphan. The orphan girl tells Angelina how beautiful she thinks her shoes are. Angelina says her shoes don’t fit her well and she wants to give her shoes to the orphan girl who thanks Angelina for giving her the shoes. Angelina asked the girl what she wanted to be when she grew up and the girl replied, “I want to become a doctor, but that will never happen since I have no parents and I have siblings so I have to do whatever is necessary for us to survive.” Angelina told the girl to never give up on her dreams. The poor girl asked Angelina what she wanted to be when she grew up and Angelina replied that she wanted to sing for the whole world. The poor girl said she would pray every day so Angelina’s dream would come true. Angelina still says she thinks of that homeless girl every day and has always performed barefoot to remind her of all the children who are less fortunate. At age 9, she became the youngest published author in Norway’s history by writing a book about this encounter in the Middle East. PLEASE PURCHASE Angelina’s book from her merchandise store on her official website, angelinajordanofficial Angelina, at age 6 and 7, did record a few songs in a recording studio at her school, most notably “I Who Have Nothing”, a truly remarkable performance for a 7 year old. At age 7, Angelina’s audition on Norway’s Got Talent, was a cover of Billie Holiday’s “Gloomy Sunday”, a song which was banned by a number of European countries during World War II because authorities worried the song would increase the suicide rate. Truly bizarre that this is the song to launch the career of a child musical prodigy. One of the judges on NGT cried. Angelina had turned 8 years old for her next performance on NGT, covering Billie Holiday’s “I’m a Fool to Want You” singing acapella which was required by NGT unless the singer also played an instrument while singing. This was the Judge’s cut round of the competition and was not performed in front of an audience. In the Semi Final round of NGT, Angelina sang “Bang Bang” which was written by Sonny Bono and was first performed by his wife Cher but is best known sung by Nancy Sinatra. The improvement in each performance is incredible even though there were only a couple months between them. In the Finals, Angelina did a cover of George Gershwin’s, “Summertime” and won the contest, capturing 46% of the votes from the ten finalists. When asked what she would like to do with the prize money she won (500,000 kroner or about $80,000), Angelina replied, “I want to give it to the poor children”. Angelina had become a star in her native Norway and her videos on UA-cam went viral. She gave a few concerts during the summer of 2014 while 8 years old. In December 2014, Angelina realized a life-long desire to sing at the Save the Children's Peace Prize Celebration which is part of the Noble Peace Prize celebration. Angelina’s family took her to United States, Brazil, Germany, France, United Kingdom, Russia, South Korea, Singapore among other corners of Earth, to perform for heads of state and to help raise money for charity. All before Angelina turned 14. At age 9, Angelina recorded a music video covering the 1956 Jay Hawkin’s classic, “I Put a Spell On You”. The video begins by showing Angelina writing her “wishes” for how she wants to perform the song. Angelina has always created her own arrangements for her cover songs. At age 10 and just a week before her 11th birthday, Angelina recorded a demo of “I’m Still Holding Out for You”. Her family never pursued having that recording officially released but someone leaked it on a UA-cam video. Thankfully, everyone involved with that song is now ok with the leaked version. Many angels (fans) believe this is one of Angelina’s best performances. When Angelina was 11, she performed a number of concerts in Norway with a jazz/rock band. Those concerts included up to 14 songs, each remarkably performed. Angelina seems to be at her best when on stage, never nervous, only 100% confident. Also at age 11, Angelina recorded her “It’s Magic” album which has, at times, been in the top 10 best selling jazz albums. On June 27, 2018, at age 12, Jordan performed Frank Sinatra “Fly Me to the Moon” for Quincy Jones in The O2 Arena in London. She has said that was the high point of her young career which was already in it’s 6th year. During 2018, Angelina lost her paternal grandfather, her friend Avicii and one of her idols, Aretha Franklin. She did a moving tribute for each. In 2019, Angelina accepted an invitation to compete in the 2nd season of America’s Got Talent (AGT), The Champions. She had, since age 3, wanted to perform for Simon Cowell and she earned his praise with her genius arrangement of “Bohemian Rhapsody”. The surviving members of Queen loved it so much they put a link to it on their Twitter. Angelina was eliminated after covering Elton John’s “Goodbye Yellow Brick Road”. Angelina’s family refused to sign any agreement with AGT. Angelina, before age 14, had covered more than 130 songs from 80 different artists, spanning at least 8 genres, all of which are available on UA-cam. Angelina has always made changes to each song she covers and often her version is preferred over the original. On UA-cam, search on The Complete Works of Angelina Jordan as Rusty Shackleford has put all songs in one file and has a complete playlist in the description of that video. The pandemic hit shortly after her performances on AGT and likely caused a change of plans by her family, most notably her Uncle Michael who is her manager. Her family agreed to a contract with Republic Records in August 2020. Republic Records declared Angelina Jordan their highest priority new artist. Reportedly her family requested Republic to allow her as normal a childhood as possible and therefore have yet to fully promote her. During the pandemic, Angelina was often seen buying meals for the homeless on the streets of Los Angeles. In November 2020, Angelina released “Million Miles” which she wrote after the passing of her beloved maternal grandfather. She dedicated the song to anyone who has ever lost a loved one. Angelina had previously released, 3 other original songs: “What is Life”, “Oslo” and “Shield” In April 2021, her original “7th Heaven” was released. A jazzy, danceable, inspiring song. Angelina has posted numerous short performances on Tik Tok and Instagram. Angelina had concerts in Norway in July 2022. In December 2022, Angelina performed at the Asian American Awards in Los Angeles. On 2/27/23, Angelina performed at the FIFA Awards ceremony in Paris, France, with a viewing audience in the millions. On May 5th, 2023, Angelina released her original "Love Don't Let Me Go". On July 23th she released her orginal EP “Old Enough”. Angelina perform Concert at the Music Hall in Portsmouth New Hampshire on Sept 22nd, 2023. On 10/27/23 she released her new orginal singiel “Our Time”. In November 2023, she was presented as a debutante at Le Bal des débutantes in Paris. On 12/08/23 she released new Marry Christmas EP “Driving Home for Christmas”. On 12/10/23 she sing in Oslo at the Nobel Peace Prize Celebration - Unchained Melody tribute to 2023 Nobel Peace Prize laureate Iranian human rights activist Narges Mohammadi. On february 29, 2024 she had two concerts in Las Vegas, Nevada,on the Elvis stage. On May 16, 2024, the first fruits of Angelina's cooperation with Tobi Gad were released. This German composer and record producer based in Los Angeles invited Angeline to an intimate concert at the Hotel Cafe JESSE & FRIENDS, the same one where Adel sang and was discovered. Tobi then took Angelina to London, where she performed His song If I Were A Boy at the London Palladium, and they recorded two versions of the song, Live At Saint James Church, and another studio version illustrated with a film from the streets of London. It seems that Tobi has started cooperation with Angelina and there are several joint songs in the pipeline. At the May concert in Los Angeles, one of them was presented: BAD VALENTINE. Angelina perform Concert at the Alex Theatre in Glendale, CA on Sept. 20th, 2024. On the same day she released her new orginal singiel in cooperation with Tobi Gad Bad Valentine.
It’s quite unusual and remarkable seeing six year old Angelina reading the adult level lyrics, in English, while singing. It made me wonder, “What other six year old child can read, let alone, at this level, while performing?”

Always good to see your love and support for Angelina, Röschu! I am glad we both very much enjoyed her performance of this beautiful song that once again, she made her own. Love to you and Switzerland! ❤❤❤
Thanks Aleks for going way back in the Angelina Time machine for this incredible display of talent at such a very young age. My Mom loved this song and Tom Jones so I got to hear it a lot. Love your insights and sincere comments and reactions with our little Angel. Loved your appearance on Wrapped in a Warm Blanket with Alan and Pontus as well. Enjoying your journey a lot. Keep them coming.🥰🥰
Thank you, Carl for everything! Alan, Pontes and I will do that again, it's just that I wanted to give everyone a long break from me (including myself) and do it for their next season. Btw, I love Tom Jones too, something so cool and polite in just the right way about that man. Not to mention his huge voice. ❤❤❤
I still find it incredible that a six year old could even read some of the words, but when you add in the fact that English isn’t even her first language!!! Yes, she was and still is amazing! Thank you for your wonderful reaction.
Thank you so much! I am very glad you enjoyed it! ❤❤❤ I'll tell you a secret. I learned to read and write in two alphabets and two languages when I was between 3-4 years old. From newspapers. 🤣 My dad used to buy several sets of newspapers and some were in Cyrillic while others were in Latin, same language though. Bored my parents with questions and then suddenly wrote a postcard and gave it to dad. English I learned in kindergarten around the same time (can't say my spelling was amazing, but it was legible). Might be why I didn't even notice that. Totally normal to fluently read at the age of 6 if you already speak the language. Lots of my friends did too. Also normal to be bilingual if your family speaks more than one language - much easier to learn when you're very young (2-5 years old) and if some members of the family only speak one language to her, while other only communicate in the other language. I AM impressed by her singing though. No amount of work, practice or circumstances brings this song to life in this way at such a young age. 🥰
If you decide to listen to Angelina practicing Whitney at 18 moms with Mery her Teta you may be stunned and surprised. Joyfully to we love to share this journey with you. @@AleksReacts
@@AleksReacts Yes, polygot or knowing several languages. Starting young helps. I noticed seeing AJ interacting with some special needs kids and I swear she had picked up some hand signing with them. Blew my mind. Fun stuff indeed.
Oh my word I'm late 😁 I'm happy that you got to see this one. Not one of the videos I normally recommend early on, but it still tells you a lot about the abilities she had right from the start. Uncanny and drop dead cute at the same time😂 Thanks for a very good reaction, Aleks! Love from Norway ♥♥♥♥♥
Angelina sang there like a professional ! At the first take ! It's a pity there is no other video or audio after this one, I never heard Angelina singing this one again...
Oh, I don't know. Would it be as magical if they did do a professional studio version or was this first take just perfect, even with that tiny imperfection. She was amazing!
Thank you another excellent reaction Aleks. Angelina has always had magic in her vocal delivery. As she has grown she had developed more depth and learned new tricks but the magic was always there, that element that draws us in and makes us connect with her and with the song.
Thank you so much, Lee! That is exactly what I meant when I said nothing has really changed. I'm discounting changes that come with simply growing up or learning technique and practicing. It's the magic in her voice I was referring to. ❤
ANGELINA is more than 6 years old in this video, if you notice her front teeth you will see that her incisors are almost completely out so Angelina is probably 7 1/2 years old if you compare with her teeth when she sang Summertime at NGT where she was 8 years old but here Angelina gives a remarkable demontration of her vocal range, and her lung capacity as well as the control of her diaphram., and as you said Angelina is Angelina, nothing more to say,... thank you.
Thank you! To be honest, I am not that perceptive when it comes to physical traits unless they are very prominent. Whether she is 6, 8 or 10, I don't think it matters much unless she was 35 when signing this song so naturally amazingly. 😊
@@Nick-yj4jk what source is there besides the video title? Mery has made mistakes before when posting Angelinas age in video titles so that can't be taken as proof of her being six.
I know it's good algorithm stuff to have a ton of comments, but I personally am not fond of arguments. So I have to ask, really, seriously, does the exact age matter? She's definitely a child and she sang it so well. 😊
Great reaction! Spot on. To think that a little first grader who’s native tung is Norwegian is singing AND reading in English is un-believable. I saw Tom Jones live in Las Angeles at the outdoor Greek Theater in 1969. His recording of this is the best I’ve ever heard, but when AJ sings it my eye get wet!
Thank you kindly, Ron! I won't pretend I have the same reaction, but I will say that I can understand why she should have such an effect on many. She's a very cute child with a huge voice and open emotions.
Thanks for a delightful reaction, Aleks. She probably was a little older than 6, but who cares. She is simply amazing! Always look forward to your Angelina reactions.
Thank you so much, Gary! Repetitive, but I'll say it again. Unless she was 35 rather than 6 or 8 or 10, she was remarkable. Exact age is really not important. She's a CHILD and she's sung THIS!
@annc9660 Other Angels have done a deeper dive than I and have concluded she was older than 6 AND it probably was NOT her first time in a studio. Still, close enough for it still to be more than amazing. Most2dot0 has done some great research on the topic. You need not agree.
Aleks, while we don't know for sure how old Angelina was for this performance, it doesn't really matter. Singing this well at age 6, 7 or 8 shouldn't be possible. Just as impressive is how Angelina interacts with the man recording her performance. She agrees with him, she messed up some lyrics. For such a young girl to be so focused on her art and wanting to improve, is remarkable.
Thank you Andy! As I already replied to someone, unless she was 35 at the time of the recording, this shouldn't be possible for a "regular" singer. Yes, I also very much agree that she's very grown up for her age and quite capable of self-criticism without self-deprecation - rather remarkable for a child. ❤
Yeah, a few others said so too. Sounds like that is it, which explains why the teacher is very honest with her, but gentle at the same time. Really cool school. 😉
Well, no, Asians and jazz singers are not the only categories of performers I prefer to listen to. Ever since the emergence, about a dozen years ago, of little six-year-old Connie Talbot, I’ve been passionate about these prodigies who, as you mentioned, have had no material time to learn to be brilliant... and yet, they are. I must have followed at least two hundred of them, and naturally, when one like this little Angie comes along, combining extreme precocity with jazz, she inevitably becomes my number one. Angie may not be the reincarnation of Lady Day, but it’s undeniable that jazz runs in her veins. Besides her, I also think it's impossible not to be stunned by teenagers like Diana Ankudinova or Charice. But there have been some truly young prodigies as well, such as Celine Tam, who was already a stage beast at five years old ( ua-cam.com/video/uozyn_DC0WU/v-deo.html ) ; or Esang de Torres, whom Lea Salonga fondly referred to as “my mini me” ( ua-cam.com/video/dplnf6ahX5o/v-deo.html ) ; or the delightful Liu Run Tong ( ua-cam.com/video/Xv7MJ5ltF78/v-deo.html ), who was nonetheless granted the rare privilege of sharing the stage with Teresa Teng... more than 25 years after Teng’s death. Then there are some baby opera divas, like Amira Willighagen ( ua-cam.com/video/tEImCJWI_ak/v-deo.html ), who won Holland’s Got Talent at the age of nine without ever having taken a single singing lesson. And finally, among these mini-superstars, we cannot forget the incredible boy band TNT Boys ( ua-cam.com/video/-q2IoOR3pz4/v-deo.html ), who competed against Dimash in The World’s Best. Among the less famous, many are, unsurprisingly, Filipino, but there are also Chinese, Russian, Dutch, and American prodigies. This makes Europeans like Angie all the rarer. That being said, we cannot omit mentioning prodigious musicians. Among them, the one I place at the absolute top, far ahead of all the other “freaks,” is the pianist Harmony Zhu ( ua-cam.com/video/UWQqw3b5OiA/v-deo.html ), who surpassed even Yuja Wang in terms of precocity and achieved true virtuosity by the age of seven. Still on piano but venturing into jazz, the Indonesian Joey Alexander was already a star in the United States by the age of ten ( ua-cam.com/video/dGp7KjwNvEc/v-deo.html ). As for violinists, little Chloe Chua is undoubtedly my favorite. And to conclude on a less classical note, let’s mention Yoyo, the most mind-blowing nine-year-old (electric) guitarist ( ua-cam.com/video/Ey8d6plehIE/v-deo.html ).
I've also noticed a rise in child prodigies, but I wonder if it might only be the accessibility of media options that finally bring out all that talent to light. Thank you for so many potential inspiring videos to watch in the future! Obviously, Diana and Angelina I have heard multiple times, but some of the others you've mentioned (even though it's not intended by you) I've added to the list. There's a lot of time and maybe some will inspire me to hear them on video while others I might simply listen to myself. Thanks again! 😊
Many fans believe she was six here, as the video had that wrong age in its title most of its existence. But she was actually early 8, which can be determined by comparing the status of her teeth to known references like her NGT performances. I explain this especially in the last six minutes of this 2013/2014 recap video: ua-cam.com/video/domuZXGLfN4/v-deo.html
I tried to point out that the stated age on this video was wrong a couple of years ago. I only got angry feedback so I stopped but I'm glad I'm not the only one who noticed.
I believe she was 6 here, and the teeth you're referring to were her baby teeth. Also, there's a clear difference in the quality of her tone between this and any performance when she was 8.
@@PITA-kd2jn It's logically not possible that these are her baby teeth, as we have very sharp footage that shows that the first upper baby tooth with she lost was her right upper central incisore. But here that one is present, but the adjecent lateral one is missing. This is only possible if the central one got replaced (as the baby tooth was gone before the lateral one was lost), and the only way it could have been replaced is by a permanent one. Besides that, the overall situation of her upper teeth with missing both lateral incisors, a fully grown right central and an emerging left central one is exactly like in her 2nd NGT performance at early 8. It doesn't take 1-2 year to replace those lateral incisors. Besides that, the size and shape of her permanent upper central incisors is quite different from her baby ones. These teeth are hard proof, whereas the tone of her voice is flexible; after all she is knwon as "The girl of a 1000 voices", isn't she?
@@davidarmstrong4420 I often got those reactions as well, but I was also able to convice quite some people. At the end, it's hard for anybody really comparing the footage to deny the evidence. In the video I linked I have slightly enlarged and slowed down footage that show her teeth in this song, directly after her earlier studio performances still showing her baby teeth as closeups. Once people actually see that, the case should be settled.
Truth be told, unless she's a middle aged women here, it really doesn't matter. No child should be able to sing this song this way, be they 6, 8 or 10. For an under-10 yo, she nailed it. ❤❤❤
Angelina from the early days, couldn't pass this one ❤. Loved it, Aleks. Yeah as you mentioned, I do think this was her first time in a studio. In any case, I'm still blown away listening to her early stuff, just can't help it. I enjoy your appreciation of her talent. And I appreciate you took the time to listen to other versions in addition to your reaction.
Thank you so much, Tolun! ❤❤❤ Listening to the original + other versions actually also helps get used to the song itself, not just for comparison. Makes sense to me and helps me focus. Also, maybe I'm lucky to have discovered her recently, rather than known her and followed from the start. When listening to her sing as an adult and as a child in a short time span I feel like I have a different kind of perspective than people who did follow her for years. It is so odd to hear the same voice in Bad Valentine and I Who Have Nothing, as if no time has gone by. That voice is just amazing from the start.
@@AleksReacts I could not agree more. There is one comparison/reaction I would love to hear, and it's her two versions of My Funny Valentine, from when she was 10, and 16. Both are absolutely fantastic in their own way. At 10: ua-cam.com/video/sZ25H4a2gPI/v-deo.html&start_radio=1 At 16: ua-cam.com/video/bWiLOnHJYxg/v-deo.html
No, it wasn't her first time in this studio, it was just the first take of this song. Many fans believe she was six here, as the video had that wrong age in its title most of its existence. But she was actually early 8, which can be determined by comparing the status of her teeth to known references like her NGT performances.
@@tolun99 Your welcome. Yes, I did a lot of research into AJ. I have playlists that link to more than 500 performances of hers, and did a seven part/two hour total documentary about her first decade in the public eye. In the last six minutes of the first part, the 2013/2014 recap, I explain why this and several of her younger videos have (or have had) obviously wrong age indications.
There are so many of these unedited videos filmed during practice sessions that gives one a hint of her capabilities growing up. As you can see by the time the video for "I put a spell on you" came out she was 100% comfortable in the studio and very much in control of it. In so many covers its funny to watch her read the lyrics from her cell phone or as in "Back in Black" and "I put a spell on you" from handwritten notes she did for her own arrangement. As an aside it is a crime that "I'm still holding out for you" ua-cam.com/video/Dv8mjCh5iiE/v-deo.html is not available for purchase, not only is it beautiful but possibly one of AJ best! Would love to see you react to it. The video was made by a fan as it was a demo never intended for release. Baby Fuzz released his video of it ua-cam.com/video/q5HsABS4OXQ/v-deo.html as it was his song and his request for AJ to do a cover of it. Angelinas mom did not like the references to suicide and therefore did not wanted it released so the demo (some people say was stolen) was leaked. Thank you🌺
You're definitely not the only one who mentioned that song. I just didn't get to it yet, but I will. You know by now that there is no order in which I listen to things, it's often random, what speaks to me in the moment based on a comment related to it or the title... In any case, it will happen. Thank you! ❤❤❤
@@AleksReacts I love that, kind of like opening your cellar and looking at the wonderful selection, and then picking out the perfect bottle for the evening!🍷
That analogy is great! Can we make it with types of coffee instead? I don't drink because between the ages of 20-30 I tried all sorts of alcoholic drinks and discovered I don't like the taste of alcohol 🤣
Um, in my country most kids did read quite well at 6. Most of my friends did and not all only in one language. Maybe it's different in other countries and I certainly don't know what it's like in Norway, but my understanding is that her family spoke more than one language, right? Her singing is extremely impressive! However, being able to read at 6, I'll be honest, to me - it's normal. 🥰
aranyos kislány szép hangja van nagyon,de úgy gondolom ilyen korban nem neki való ilyen dal!! nem hiszem hogy tudja egyáltalán azt hogy miről énekel!könyörgöm még csak hat éves gyerek dalokat kellene énekelnie nem a szerelemről azt sem tudja hogy mi az!gyönyörű a hangja az biztos de szerintem nagyon korai ilyen dalokat énekeltetni vele! bocsánat ez az én véleményem!
Understandably, if you know who this young lady is, like all of us do, you would have a different view. She is quite brilliant, genius music prodigy who, even at very young ages, can understand lyrics and meanings behind songs she sings and has the ability to emote the feelings of the songs she sings. You probably should not watch her sing Gloomy Sunday on Norway Got Talent at age 7 (Billy Holiday), she understood the meaning of that song quite well and sang it appropriately. She is not your "normal child" who should sing "Mary had a Little Lamb", been singing "adult" songs since this age. The more you know about her the more you shall understand. Appreciate your concerns though. Cheers.
It is said that they tried to get her to sing children songs but she would have non of that. I'm sure Angelina chose this song as she has always chosen every song she sings. Her mother did try to set limits which she got around by rewriting the song to be age appropriate. If she wanted to sing a song, I don't think she could be dissuaded. As others will say, you can't set limits on genius. Angelina set the bar high for herself and then proceeded to blow right thru it. Angelina Jordan Our Barefoot Princess of Jazz. She continues her journey thru history as a legend...Barefoot.❤👣
Azt hiszem, a hangja nem gyerekdalokhoz való. Képzelje el ezt a hangot, amint a pillangókról énekel a réten, vagy a méhekről és virágokról. Valószínűleg igazad van abban, hogy nem igazán érti a szerelem értelmét, hiszen azt egyetlen gyerek sem értené meg igazán, szerintem a maga módján képes kifejezni azt az érzelmet, amit hall, ami felnőtteknek hangzik, hát, felnőtt. Amikor meglátod az arcát, rájössz, hogy csak azt az érzelmet érezte a zenében, ami az eredeti énekesnőtől származott. Most, amikor az általa írt dalokról van szó, mint például a Million Miles vagy a Shield, világossá válik, hogy zeneileg legalábbis jóval idősebb a valós koránál. Félreértés ne essék, egyetértek azzal, hogy a gyerekeknek ártatlannak kell maradniuk, ameddig csak lehet, de vannak olyan gyerekek, akik "koruknál idősebbnek" születnek, és meglehetősen hatalmas tehetséggel, amit nem lehet megfékezni. I believe her voice is not meant for children's songs. Imagine this voice singing about butterflies in the meadow or about bees and flowers. You're probably right about her not really understanding the meaning of love, as no child could really understand it, I think she's capable of expressing the emotion she hears in her own way that to adults sounds, well, adult. When you see her face, you realize that she only felt the emotion in music that came from the original singer. Now, when it comes to the songs she herself wrote, like Million Miles or Shield, it becomes clear that she is musically at least much older than her real age. Do not get me wrong, I agree that children should stay innocent as long as possible, but some children are born "older than their age" and with rather a huge talent that cannot be contained.

As always I need to thank you all for suggesting this particular video! So a great big thanks to @Christian-DH, @AJfanboy1, @Edam-Channel, @I_scribbles, @jacjacobsen1947, @ericdavison5434, @clmenterprises08, and @eddieramirez5300! I believe this is the youngest I've heard her yet and it was fascinating! ❤❤❤
❤❤❤
👍🏽❤❤❤👌🏽
I enjoyed your comments...there is a quality in Angelina's vocal that reflects her native talent, no question! I imagine this to be like other child prodigies, Mozart, and other classic artists. It is astounding nevertheless...and listening to her early work is never boring...she manages to bring new life to older songs each and every time...
Thank you kindly, Philip! I agree with you completely. Quite likely a common thing for child prodigies that they simply learn new stuff, but the original talent is visible from the very start... Quite a few songs I've heard by Angelina prove that in my view.
there are no words
I was impressed with how she dealt with the review of what she had just sung. Yes she was not happy with the mistake but did not allow that to impact her performance. At the end she seemed pleased and handled it like a pro. Incidentally, as I understand it, her mother said she was an adult at 8 years of age.
I also enjoyed your "Wrapped in a Warm Blanket" podcast. You will have to do that again some time.
Agree with you absolutely, both during the song and afterwards. Very serious and very adult about it in the best way possible. She is in her own category, for sure. 🥰
Thank you also for the podcast shoutout. Alan and I spoke and agreed to do another one, but it was I who asked for it to take place next season. I'm supposed to be a guest and as the saying here goes "svakog gosta tri dana dosta" - "every guest is welcome for three days" meaning, let me have my home to myself and some peace after that. Btw, it's just a saying, not really true. We tend to keep guests for weeks if they'll have us.
Angelina is a perfectionist. Even at this age she's want everything perfect.
Oh, that was obvious in this video. Such a funny face when she noticed something slightly off. 🤣
🎼🤗💞
🎼😇ANGEL*IN*A*STAR⭐️🎶
❤❤❤
I marvel at the change in her demeanor as she goes through this song. It is indicative of the trajectory she has followed in improving her skills throughout her life.
I believe it is also an innate ability of hers, sort of came along with this immense talent. The rational personality simply following its instincts knowing it's the right thing to do... Again, I know this may be an unpopular opinion, but my view is that she was born to be what she is and is lucky to have a personality and support that enhance her talent, rather than ruin her life due to a great talent like many have before...
There are so many words to describe Angelina ... 'special' is one that covers them all.
So many have been used that I have heard of, but I think just hearing her sing is more than enough. So, yeah, special should do it. 😊😉
Cuteness overload ❤
Did you see her reaction? Like a tiny teenagers disappointed it wasn't "just right". Yup, extra cute this one and with such a big voice. ❤❤❤
@@AleksReacts I've watched this quite a few times and seen it all... :) - As her voice is self explaining I didn't comment on that... Peace out! 😘
You have a point regarding her voice. 🥰
For me she, during this performance, is the most adorable seven year old on this earth (yes, seven, which I think time will prove correct, not six, obviously a much older women). She steals your heart and really, she never, ever, lets go. And most of us don't ever want that to happen, the letting go. She is and remains just too amazing.
She is really adorable, I have to agree. 🥰
I wouldn't say 'nervous' but excited!
Might be either or even both. Once she started singing, it was neither really - just a plush cushion to sink into and enjoy. ❤
@AleksReacts at six years of age, she was quite brave nonetheless
I keep saying this: I don't think she had a choice. Singing chose her at birth and we're lucky to witness it. 🥰
@AleksReacts without a doubt! I've been following her since 2014 when I found her while I roamed the globe with UA-cam. Never ceases to amaze me!
🥰
To the best of my knowledge, this is a facility in the Oslo School of Music and Performance Arts she attended as a child, and the "Technician" is simply one of her teachers.
Ah, that explains his realism in talking to her at the end. Very cool teacher, I'd say. 😊
❤ LOVE your reaction. 👍🏽👌🏽
Thank you! ❤❤❤
Enjoyed your reaction and agree with everything you said except her voice has become richer and deeper and it is truly a one of a kind female voice her voice sounds much like a version the great voice of Tom Jones and in some ways like Elvis,
Obviously, with simply growing up some changes will happen. Please do not take my comments too literally. What I meant was that she displays the same qualities regardless of age, maybe a bit more richness, maybe a bit deeper color, maybe a bit more control, but in essence, no huge changes... This happens with any great talent that is developed though the years... They start off great...
@AleksReacts oh I very much enjoyed your reaction and I subscribed, I just find her with a very powerful voice
Angelina has always been her own toughest critic. That's why she is so good and WILL continue to become better well after I'm gone.❤❤👣❤❤
Don't go just yet, I bet there will be a lot more that this young lady will bring to make you want to stick around. ❤❤❤
@AleksReacts oh I intend to stick around as long as I can Just to see and hear this beautiful young lady change the world❤️❤️👣❤️
Thanks, another great reaction! ❤😇
Thank you kindly, Bob! It's my pleasure. ❤
Great reaction Aleks. We always appreciate your feedback.
Thank you so much! I'm never sure if it is relevant feedback even, so I'm simply saying what I'm thinking in the moment. Glad to hear there is some value in it. ❤❤❤
wow thats great and fun x
Can't disagree with truth. 😉
Thank you for great reaction. ❤
My pleasure! Thank you as well for taking the time to watch it. ❤ Very glad you liked it.
❤❤❤
❤❤❤
Good evening Aleks this song was pretty good for a young Angelina 6 yrs old🎉
Good afternoon, Cathy! Yes, she did a pretty good job. 😉
Hello Aleks! It's a real treat to listen to this child.. her understanding of language, all the nuances words can have, even at this age she seems to 'know' which emotion is right for each word in the particular context she's singing.
I don't even know if I make sense trying to explain how I think about her ability to convey feelings.. Anyway, thankyou for sharing your enjoyment of young Angelina with us.. she's certainly contagious 😅 ❤
Ah, some of the comments said it's amazing she can read - no overly amazing, to be perfectly open. However, I agree with you on the nuances words can have and which emotion works OR it's the emotion she heard in the original and knew how to make it happen again. Can't be sure on that score yet, but whatever the source of the emotion, her ability to convey it so young is truly amazing. ❤❤❤ Thank you so much!
@AleksReacts True! This little Norwegian girl is not only reading but reading and understanding and singing in English.. I can just wonder and be very thankful I can hear. ❤
yes I agree with every thing you said about this, to me in every performance she gets better and better. What I find fascinating is that you will see her reading the lyrics of lots of the songs she sings but still is able to impart the feeling & emotion of the song
Thank you, Patrick! I think she's simply made that way, which is somewhat astonishing in such a small child. Her ability to impart emotions is way beyond her years indeed.
One of the remarkable things about little Angelina is her remarkable growth, even from song to song. All adults who work with her, from the very beginning, have respected her seriousness and professionalism. Stunning that this is the case. There are plenty of videos showing this.
This seems to be rather an unpopular view, but I don't see growth. I see a girl who was born to be what she is, who experiences a new studio, new stage, new production team, new song, but nothing really that big that changes her. Just slight adjustments to new circumstances, while she stays the same. Perhaps I'm totally wrong, but that is what I see...
Aleks, I have enjoyed your well articulated reactions to Angelina’s performances since I discovered your channel. I watched your visit with the “Wrapped In a Warm Blanket” men. You impressed me with your intuitive observations and commentary. You have my deepest respect and admiration. I look forward to watching more of your reactions.
Thank you so much for so many wonderful compliments! The appreciation is mutual. ❤
😊😊😊😊
❤❤❤
You're the first reactor I've seen that commented on that last expression she made and I'm glad to see it. I've always felt that, after the eye roll, she was then faking a collapse as if she was tired. I've always enjoyed your reactions!
Thank you! I found it both cute and funny, she was visibly displeased there and you described it well. 😊
Well done Alek
Thank you! 😊
Angelina The Barefoot Jazzy Queen with a hypnotic voice.
Born Angelina Jordan Astar on January 10, 2006 in Oslo, Norway to her Norwegian mother, Sara Astar and her Swedish father, Gerry Christian Slattman.
Angelina started singing around 18 months of age, after listening to Whitney Houston on UA-cam. She quickly became obsessed with listening to music videos and her maternal grandmother, Mery Zamani got Angelina interested in classic jazz.
Mery Zamani is Iranian and was a prodigy as an artist and poet while growing up in Iran. Angelina attended the Oslo Waldorf School and participated in the Oslo School of Music and Performing Arts after-school program, where starting around age 4, she had training in music but no vocal training. Her teachers were smart enough to not attempt to change what she was doing vocally. More recently she along with her grandmother have designed and made the clothing she wears on stage.
Why Angelina always performs barefoot At age 6, while traveling in the Middle East with her mother and grandmother, Angelina noticed a girl around her age standing on the side of the road, asking people to step on her bathroom scale to be weighed in hopes of getting some money. Angelina took off her shoes so as to not get the scale dirty and stepped on the scale many times to make the girl feel better. Angelina befriends the girl who was not wearing shoes and has scars on her feet, and learns she is an orphan. The orphan girl tells Angelina how beautiful she thinks her shoes are. Angelina says her shoes don’t fit her well and she wants to give her shoes to the orphan girl who thanks Angelina for giving her the shoes. Angelina asked the girl what she wanted to be when she grew up and the girl replied, “I want to become a doctor, but that will never happen since I have no parents and I have siblings so I have to do whatever is necessary for us to survive.” Angelina told the girl to never give up on her dreams. The poor girl asked Angelina what she wanted to be when she grew up and Angelina replied that she wanted to sing for the whole world. The poor girl said she would pray every day so Angelina’s dream would come true. Angelina still says she thinks of that homeless girl every day and has always performed barefoot to remind her of all the children who are less fortunate.
At age 9, she became the youngest published author in Norway’s history by writing a book about this encounter in the Middle East. PLEASE PURCHASE Angelina’s book from her merchandise store on her official website, angelinajordanofficial Angelina, at age 6 and 7, did record a few songs in a recording studio at her school, most notably “I Who Have Nothing”, a truly remarkable performance for a 7 year old. At age 7, Angelina’s audition on Norway’s Got Talent, was a cover of Billie Holiday’s “Gloomy Sunday”, a song which was banned by a number of European countries during World War II because authorities worried the song would increase the suicide rate. Truly bizarre that this is the song to launch the career of a child musical prodigy. One of the judges on NGT cried. Angelina had turned 8 years old for her next performance on NGT, covering Billie Holiday’s “I’m a Fool to Want You” singing acapella which was required by NGT unless the singer also played an instrument while singing. This was the Judge’s cut round of the competition and was not performed in front of an audience. In the Semi Final round of NGT, Angelina sang “Bang Bang” which was written by Sonny Bono and was first performed by his wife Cher but is best known sung by Nancy Sinatra. The improvement in each performance is incredible even though there were only a couple months between them. In the Finals, Angelina did a cover of George Gershwin’s, “Summertime” and won the contest, capturing 46% of the votes from the ten finalists. When asked what she would like to do with the prize money she won (500,000 kroner or about $80,000), Angelina replied, “I want to give it to the poor children”. Angelina had become a star in her native Norway and her videos on UA-cam went viral. She gave a few concerts during the summer of 2014 while 8 years old. In December 2014, Angelina realized a life-long desire to sing at the Save the Children's Peace Prize Celebration which is part of the Noble Peace Prize celebration. Angelina’s family took her to United States, Brazil, Germany, France, United Kingdom, Russia, South Korea, Singapore among other corners of Earth, to perform for heads of state and to help raise money for charity. All before Angelina turned 14. At age 9, Angelina recorded a music video covering the 1956 Jay Hawkin’s classic, “I Put a Spell On You”. The video begins by showing Angelina writing her “wishes” for how she wants to perform the song. Angelina has always created her own arrangements for her cover songs. At age 10 and just a week before her 11th birthday, Angelina recorded a demo of “I’m Still Holding Out for You”. Her family never pursued having that recording officially released but someone leaked it on a UA-cam video. Thankfully, everyone involved with that song is now ok with the leaked version. Many angels (fans) believe this is one of Angelina’s best performances. When Angelina was 11, she performed a number of concerts in Norway with a jazz/rock band. Those concerts included up to 14 songs, each remarkably performed. Angelina seems to be at her best when on stage, never nervous, only 100% confident. Also at age 11, Angelina recorded her “It’s Magic” album which has, at times, been in the top 10 best selling jazz albums. On June 27, 2018, at age 12, Jordan performed Frank Sinatra “Fly Me to the Moon” for Quincy Jones in The O2 Arena in London. She has said that was the high point of her young career which was already in it’s 6th year. During 2018, Angelina lost her paternal grandfather, her friend Avicii and one of her idols, Aretha Franklin. She did a moving tribute for each. In 2019, Angelina accepted an invitation to compete in the 2nd season of America’s Got Talent (AGT), The Champions. She had, since age 3, wanted to perform for Simon Cowell and she earned his praise with her genius arrangement of “Bohemian Rhapsody”. The surviving members of Queen loved it so much they put a link to it on their Twitter. Angelina was eliminated after covering Elton John’s “Goodbye Yellow Brick Road”. Angelina’s family refused to sign any agreement with AGT. Angelina, before age 14, had covered more than 130 songs from 80 different artists, spanning at least 8 genres, all of which are available on UA-cam. Angelina has always made changes to each song she covers and often her version is preferred over the original. On UA-cam, search on The Complete Works of Angelina Jordan as Rusty Shackleford has put all songs in one file and has a complete playlist in the description of that video. The pandemic hit shortly after her performances on AGT and likely caused a change of plans by her family, most notably her Uncle Michael who is her manager. Her family agreed to a contract with Republic Records in August 2020. Republic Records declared Angelina Jordan their highest priority new artist. Reportedly her family requested Republic to allow her as normal a childhood as possible and therefore have yet to fully promote her. During the pandemic, Angelina was often seen buying meals for the homeless on the streets of Los Angeles. In November 2020, Angelina released “Million Miles” which she wrote after the passing of her beloved maternal grandfather. She dedicated the song to anyone who has ever lost a loved one. Angelina had previously released, 3 other original songs: “What is Life”, “Oslo” and “Shield” In April 2021, her original “7th Heaven” was released. A jazzy, danceable, inspiring song. Angelina has posted numerous short performances on Tik Tok and Instagram. Angelina had concerts in Norway in July 2022. In December 2022, Angelina performed at the Asian American Awards in Los Angeles. On 2/27/23, Angelina performed at the FIFA Awards ceremony in Paris, France, with a viewing audience in the millions. On May 5th, 2023, Angelina released her original "Love Don't Let Me Go". On July 23th she released her orginal EP “Old Enough”.
Angelina perform Concert at the Music Hall in Portsmouth New Hampshire on Sept 22nd, 2023. On 10/27/23 she released her new orginal singiel “Our Time”. In November 2023, she was presented as a debutante at Le Bal des débutantes in Paris. On 12/08/23 she released new Marry Christmas EP “Driving Home for Christmas”. On 12/10/23 she sing in Oslo at the Nobel Peace Prize Celebration - Unchained Melody tribute to 2023 Nobel Peace Prize laureate Iranian human rights activist Narges Mohammadi. On february 29, 2024 she had two concerts in Las Vegas, Nevada,on the Elvis stage.
On May 16, 2024, the first fruits of Angelina's cooperation with Tobi Gad were released. This German composer and record producer based in Los Angeles invited Angeline to an intimate concert at the Hotel Cafe JESSE & FRIENDS, the same one where Adel sang and was discovered. Tobi then took Angelina to London, where she performed His song If I Were A Boy at the London Palladium, and they recorded two versions of the song, Live At Saint James Church, and another studio version illustrated with a film from the streets of London. It seems that Tobi has started cooperation with Angelina and there are several joint songs in the pipeline. At the May concert in Los Angeles, one of them was presented: BAD VALENTINE.
Angelina perform Concert at the Alex Theatre in Glendale, CA on Sept. 20th, 2024. On the same day she released her new orginal singiel in cooperation with Tobi Gad Bad Valentine.
Thank you for sharing this! 😊

🙂
It’s quite unusual and remarkable seeing six year old Angelina reading the adult level lyrics, in English, while singing. It made me wonder, “What other six year old child can read, let alone, at this level, while performing?”
Recorded with Grandma Mery's cellphone...
Makes sense given the sound quality.

Always good to see your love and support for Angelina, Röschu! I am glad we both very much enjoyed her performance of this beautiful song that once again, she made her own. Love to you and Switzerland! ❤❤❤
Thanks Aleks for going way back in the Angelina Time machine for this incredible display of talent at such a very young age. My Mom loved this song and Tom Jones so I got to hear it a lot. Love your insights and sincere comments and reactions with our little Angel. Loved your appearance on Wrapped in a Warm Blanket with Alan and Pontus as well. Enjoying your journey a lot. Keep them coming.🥰🥰
Thank you, Carl for everything! Alan, Pontes and I will do that again, it's just that I wanted to give everyone a long break from me (including myself) and do it for their next season. Btw, I love Tom Jones too, something so cool and polite in just the right way about that man. Not to mention his huge voice. ❤❤❤
👏👏👏
Thank you! ❤❤❤
Yeah agree her voice has always been there, is just her body that is growing into it 😋❤❤❤
You've summed it up quite nicely. ❤❤❤
@@AleksReacts She just 18 , and still growing hehe
I still find it incredible that a six year old could even read some of the words, but when you add in the fact that English isn’t even her first language!!! Yes, she was and still is amazing! Thank you for your wonderful reaction.
Thank you so much! I am very glad you enjoyed it! ❤❤❤
I'll tell you a secret. I learned to read and write in two alphabets and two languages when I was between 3-4 years old. From newspapers. 🤣 My dad used to buy several sets of newspapers and some were in Cyrillic while others were in Latin, same language though. Bored my parents with questions and then suddenly wrote a postcard and gave it to dad. English I learned in kindergarten around the same time (can't say my spelling was amazing, but it was legible). Might be why I didn't even notice that. Totally normal to fluently read at the age of 6 if you already speak the language. Lots of my friends did too. Also normal to be bilingual if your family speaks more than one language - much easier to learn when you're very young (2-5 years old) and if some members of the family only speak one language to her, while other only communicate in the other language.
I AM impressed by her singing though. No amount of work, practice or circumstances brings this song to life in this way at such a young age. 🥰
If you decide to listen to Angelina practicing Whitney at 18 moms with Mery her Teta you may be stunned and surprised. Joyfully to we love to share this journey with you. @@AleksReacts
@@AleksReacts Yes, polygot or knowing several languages. Starting young helps. I noticed seeing AJ interacting with some special needs kids and I swear she had picked up some hand signing with them. Blew my mind. Fun stuff indeed.
Oh my word I'm late 😁 I'm happy that you got to see this one. Not one of the videos I normally recommend early on, but it still tells you a lot about the abilities she had right from the start. Uncanny and drop dead cute at the same time😂 Thanks for a very good reaction, Aleks! Love from Norway ♥♥♥♥♥
We all very much agree on the talent, but also how cute she is here. 🥰 Love to Norway, dear Sharkster! ❤❤❤
@@AleksReacts 😊
Angelina sang there like a professional ! At the first take ! It's a pity there is no other video or audio after this one, I never heard Angelina singing this one again...
Oh, I don't know. Would it be as magical if they did do a professional studio version or was this first take just perfect, even with that tiny imperfection. She was amazing!

@@103mrg ☺ Thank you ! Yes I think it's not the same song recording, alas too short !
@@fande...Angelina You can tell by the difference in her blouse/sweater.
Thank you another excellent reaction Aleks. Angelina has always had magic in her vocal delivery. As she has grown she had developed more depth and learned new tricks but the magic was always there, that element that draws us in and makes us connect with her and with the song.
Thank you so much, Lee! That is exactly what I meant when I said nothing has really changed. I'm discounting changes that come with simply growing up or learning technique and practicing. It's the magic in her voice I was referring to. ❤
ANGELINA is more than 6 years old in this video, if you notice her front teeth you will see that her incisors are almost completely out so Angelina is probably 7 1/2 years old if you compare with her teeth when she sang Summertime at NGT where she was 8 years old but here Angelina gives a remarkable demontration of her vocal range, and her lung capacity as well as the control of her diaphram., and as you said Angelina is Angelina, nothing more to say,... thank you.
Thank you! To be honest, I am not that perceptive when it comes to physical traits unless they are very prominent. Whether she is 6, 8 or 10, I don't think it matters much unless she was 35 when signing this song so naturally amazingly. 😊
Every other source says she s 6. What is your source? Likely the baby teeth have not yet been lost.
@@Nick-yj4jk what source is there besides the video title? Mery has made mistakes before when posting Angelinas age in video titles so that can't be taken as proof of her being six.
I know it's good algorithm stuff to have a ton of comments, but I personally am not fond of arguments. So I have to ask, really, seriously, does the exact age matter? She's definitely a child and she sang it so well. 😊
Great reaction! Spot on. To think that a little first grader who’s native tung is Norwegian is singing AND reading in English is un-believable.
I saw Tom Jones live in Las Angeles at the outdoor Greek Theater in 1969. His recording of this is the best I’ve ever heard, but when AJ sings it my eye get wet!
Thank you kindly, Ron! I won't pretend I have the same reaction, but I will say that I can understand why she should have such an effect on many. She's a very cute child with a huge voice and open emotions.
😀😀😀😀😀
❤❤❤
😎💙👍
❤❤❤
Thanks for a delightful reaction, Aleks. She probably was a little older than 6, but who cares. She is simply amazing! Always look forward to your Angelina reactions.
Thank you so much, Gary! Repetitive, but I'll say it again. Unless she was 35 rather than 6 or 8 or 10, she was remarkable. Exact age is really not important. She's a CHILD and she's sung THIS!
she was SIX....first time in a studio.......
@annc9660 Other Angels have done a deeper dive than I and have concluded she was older than 6 AND it probably was NOT her first time in a studio. Still, close enough for it still to be more than amazing. Most2dot0 has done some great research on the topic. You need not agree.
Aleks, while we don't know for sure how old Angelina was for this performance, it doesn't really matter. Singing this well at age 6, 7 or 8 shouldn't be possible. Just as impressive is how Angelina interacts with the man recording her performance. She agrees with him, she messed up some lyrics. For such a young girl to be so focused on her art and wanting to improve, is remarkable.
Thank you Andy! As I already replied to someone, unless she was 35 at the time of the recording, this shouldn't be possible for a "regular" singer. Yes, I also very much agree that she's very grown up for her age and quite capable of self-criticism without self-deprecation - rather remarkable for a child. ❤
I believe it was in school.
After school program
@hardcarbon4035 yes
Yeah, a few others said so too. Sounds like that is it, which explains why the teacher is very honest with her, but gentle at the same time. Really cool school. 😉
@AleksReacts certainly does!
👍👍👣👣👣👣👣👏👏
Thank you, Thomas! ❤❤❤
@AleksReacts Thank You too ❤️❤️❤️
Well, no, Asians and jazz singers are not the only categories of performers I prefer to listen to. Ever since the emergence, about a dozen years ago, of little six-year-old Connie Talbot, I’ve been passionate about these prodigies who, as you mentioned, have had no material time to learn to be brilliant... and yet, they are. I must have followed at least two hundred of them, and naturally, when one like this little Angie comes along, combining extreme precocity with jazz, she inevitably becomes my number one. Angie may not be the reincarnation of Lady Day, but it’s undeniable that jazz runs in her veins.
Besides her, I also think it's impossible not to be stunned by teenagers like Diana Ankudinova or Charice. But there have been some truly young prodigies as well, such as Celine Tam, who was already a stage beast at five years old ( ua-cam.com/video/uozyn_DC0WU/v-deo.html ) ; or Esang de Torres, whom Lea Salonga fondly referred to as “my mini me” ( ua-cam.com/video/dplnf6ahX5o/v-deo.html ) ; or the delightful Liu Run Tong ( ua-cam.com/video/Xv7MJ5ltF78/v-deo.html ), who was nonetheless granted the rare privilege of sharing the stage with Teresa Teng... more than 25 years after Teng’s death. Then there are some baby opera divas, like Amira Willighagen ( ua-cam.com/video/tEImCJWI_ak/v-deo.html ), who won Holland’s Got Talent at the age of nine without ever having taken a single singing lesson. And finally, among these mini-superstars, we cannot forget the incredible boy band TNT Boys ( ua-cam.com/video/-q2IoOR3pz4/v-deo.html ), who competed against Dimash in The World’s Best.
Among the less famous, many are, unsurprisingly, Filipino, but there are also Chinese, Russian, Dutch, and American prodigies. This makes Europeans like Angie all the rarer.
That being said, we cannot omit mentioning prodigious musicians. Among them, the one I place at the absolute top, far ahead of all the other “freaks,” is the pianist Harmony Zhu ( ua-cam.com/video/UWQqw3b5OiA/v-deo.html ), who surpassed even Yuja Wang in terms of precocity and achieved true virtuosity by the age of seven. Still on piano but venturing into jazz, the Indonesian Joey Alexander was already a star in the United States by the age of ten ( ua-cam.com/video/dGp7KjwNvEc/v-deo.html ). As for violinists, little Chloe Chua is undoubtedly my favorite. And to conclude on a less classical note, let’s mention Yoyo, the most mind-blowing nine-year-old (electric) guitarist ( ua-cam.com/video/Ey8d6plehIE/v-deo.html ).
I've also noticed a rise in child prodigies, but I wonder if it might only be the accessibility of media options that finally bring out all that talent to light. Thank you for so many potential inspiring videos to watch in the future! Obviously, Diana and Angelina I have heard multiple times, but some of the others you've mentioned (even though it's not intended by you) I've added to the list. There's a lot of time and maybe some will inspire me to hear them on video while others I might simply listen to myself. Thanks again! 😊
Many fans believe she was six here, as the video had that wrong age in its title most of its existence. But she was actually early 8, which can be determined by comparing the status of her teeth to known references like her NGT performances. I explain this especially in the last six minutes of this 2013/2014 recap video: ua-cam.com/video/domuZXGLfN4/v-deo.html
I tried to point out that the stated age on this video was wrong a couple of years ago. I only got angry feedback so I stopped but I'm glad I'm not the only one who noticed.
I believe she was 6 here, and the teeth you're referring to were her baby teeth. Also, there's a clear difference in the quality of her tone between this and any performance when she was 8.
@@PITA-kd2jn It's logically not possible that these are her baby teeth, as we have very sharp footage that shows that the first upper baby tooth with she lost was her right upper central incisore. But here that one is present, but the adjecent lateral one is missing. This is only possible if the central one got replaced (as the baby tooth was gone before the lateral one was lost), and the only way it could have been replaced is by a permanent one.
Besides that, the overall situation of her upper teeth with missing both lateral incisors, a fully grown right central and an emerging left central one is exactly like in her 2nd NGT performance at early 8. It doesn't take 1-2 year to replace those lateral incisors.
Besides that, the size and shape of her permanent upper central incisors is quite different from her baby ones.
These teeth are hard proof, whereas the tone of her voice is flexible; after all she is knwon as "The girl of a 1000 voices", isn't she?
@@davidarmstrong4420 I often got those reactions as well, but I was also able to convice quite some people. At the end, it's hard for anybody really comparing the footage to deny the evidence. In the video I linked I have slightly enlarged and slowed down footage that show her teeth in this song, directly after her earlier studio performances still showing her baby teeth as closeups. Once people actually see that, the case should be settled.
Truth be told, unless she's a middle aged women here, it really doesn't matter. No child should be able to sing this song this way, be they 6, 8 or 10. For an under-10 yo, she nailed it. ❤❤❤
Angelina from the early days, couldn't pass this one ❤. Loved it, Aleks. Yeah as you mentioned, I do think this was her first time in a studio. In any case, I'm still blown away listening to her early stuff, just can't help it. I enjoy your appreciation of her talent. And I appreciate you took the time to listen to other versions in addition to your reaction.
Thank you so much, Tolun! ❤❤❤
Listening to the original + other versions actually also helps get used to the song itself, not just for comparison. Makes sense to me and helps me focus.
Also, maybe I'm lucky to have discovered her recently, rather than known her and followed from the start. When listening to her sing as an adult and as a child in a short time span I feel like I have a different kind of perspective than people who did follow her for years. It is so odd to hear the same voice in Bad Valentine and I Who Have Nothing, as if no time has gone by. That voice is just amazing from the start.
@@AleksReacts I could not agree more. There is one comparison/reaction I would love to hear, and it's her two versions of My Funny Valentine, from when she was 10, and 16. Both are absolutely fantastic in their own way.

No, it wasn't her first time in this studio, it was just the first take of this song. Many fans believe she was six here, as the video had that wrong age in its title most of its existence.

@@most2dot0 Thanks for the clarification. I assume from your avatar image you know your AJ stuff :)
@@tolun99 Your welcome. Yes, I did a lot of research into AJ. I have playlists that link to more than 500 performances of hers, and did a seven part/two hour total documentary about her first decade in the public eye. In the last six minutes of the first part, the 2013/2014 recap, I explain why this and several of her younger videos have (or have had) obviously wrong age indications.
May I say you look like the beautiful Ingrid Bergman!🤗💞
I love Ingrid Bergman and to be compared to her in any way is an honor. Thank you so much! ❤❤❤
There are so many of these unedited videos filmed during practice sessions that gives one a hint of her capabilities growing up. As you can see by the time the video for "I put a spell on you" came out she was 100% comfortable in the studio and very much in control of it. In so many covers its funny to watch her read the lyrics from her cell phone or as in "Back in Black" and "I put a spell on you" from handwritten notes she did for her own arrangement. As an aside it is a crime that "I'm still holding out for you" ua-cam.com/video/Dv8mjCh5iiE/v-deo.html is not available for purchase, not only is it beautiful but possibly one of AJ best! Would love to see you react to it. The video was made by a fan as it was a demo never intended for release. Baby Fuzz released his video of it ua-cam.com/video/q5HsABS4OXQ/v-deo.html as it was his song and his request for AJ to do a cover of it. Angelinas mom did not like the references to suicide and therefore did not wanted it released so the demo (some people say was stolen) was leaked. Thank you🌺
You're definitely not the only one who mentioned that song. I just didn't get to it yet, but I will. You know by now that there is no order in which I listen to things, it's often random, what speaks to me in the moment based on a comment related to it or the title... In any case, it will happen. Thank you! ❤❤❤
@@AleksReacts I love that, kind of like opening your cellar and looking at the wonderful selection, and then picking out the perfect bottle for the evening!🍷
That analogy is great! Can we make it with types of coffee instead? I don't drink because between the ages of 20-30 I tried all sorts of alcoholic drinks and discovered I don't like the taste of alcohol 🤣
@@AleksReactscoffee works for me 😂❤
Consider that she's reading the lyrics and directions....at 6 y.o. (!) Most kids can't read anything at 6.
Um, in my country most kids did read quite well at 6. Most of my friends did and not all only in one language. Maybe it's different in other countries and I certainly don't know what it's like in Norway, but my understanding is that her family spoke more than one language, right? Her singing is extremely impressive! However, being able to read at 6, I'll be honest, to me - it's normal. 🥰
She messed up on one sentence. But still, after reading the lyrics in English, not her native tongue, her timing was spot on.
I didn't even notice until they said so in the end. 🙂
aranyos kislány szép hangja van nagyon,de úgy gondolom ilyen korban nem neki való ilyen dal!! nem hiszem hogy tudja egyáltalán azt hogy miről énekel!könyörgöm még csak hat éves gyerek dalokat kellene énekelnie nem a szerelemről azt sem tudja hogy mi az!gyönyörű a hangja az biztos de szerintem nagyon korai ilyen dalokat énekeltetni vele! bocsánat ez az én véleményem!
Understandably, if you know who this young lady is, like all of us do, you would have a different view. She is quite brilliant, genius music prodigy who, even at very young ages, can understand lyrics and meanings behind songs she sings and has the ability to emote the feelings of the songs she sings. You probably should not watch her sing Gloomy Sunday on Norway Got Talent at age 7 (Billy Holiday), she understood the meaning of that song quite well and sang it appropriately. She is not your "normal child" who should sing "Mary had a Little Lamb", been singing "adult" songs since this age. The more you know about her the more you shall understand. Appreciate your concerns though. Cheers.
It is said that they tried to get her to sing children songs but she would have non of that. I'm sure Angelina chose this song as she has always chosen every song she sings. Her mother did try to set limits which she got around by rewriting the song to be age appropriate. If she wanted to sing a song, I don't think she could be dissuaded. As others will say, you can't set limits on genius. Angelina set the bar high for herself and then proceeded to blow right thru it. Angelina Jordan Our Barefoot Princess of Jazz. She continues her journey thru history as a legend...Barefoot.❤👣
Azt hiszem, a hangja nem gyerekdalokhoz való. Képzelje el ezt a hangot, amint a pillangókról énekel a réten, vagy a méhekről és virágokról. Valószínűleg igazad van abban, hogy nem igazán érti a szerelem értelmét, hiszen azt egyetlen gyerek sem értené meg igazán, szerintem a maga módján képes kifejezni azt az érzelmet, amit hall, ami felnőtteknek hangzik, hát, felnőtt. Amikor meglátod az arcát, rájössz, hogy csak azt az érzelmet érezte a zenében, ami az eredeti énekesnőtől származott. Most, amikor az általa írt dalokról van szó, mint például a Million Miles vagy a Shield, világossá válik, hogy zeneileg legalábbis jóval idősebb a valós koránál. Félreértés ne essék, egyetértek azzal, hogy a gyerekeknek ártatlannak kell maradniuk, ameddig csak lehet, de vannak olyan gyerekek, akik "koruknál idősebbnek" születnek, és meglehetősen hatalmas tehetséggel, amit nem lehet megfékezni.
I believe her voice is not meant for children's songs. Imagine this voice singing about butterflies in the meadow or about bees and flowers. You're probably right about her not really understanding the meaning of love, as no child could really understand it, I think she's capable of expressing the emotion she hears in her own way that to adults sounds, well, adult. When you see her face, you realize that she only felt the emotion in music that came from the original singer. Now, when it comes to the songs she herself wrote, like Million Miles or Shield, it becomes clear that she is musically at least much older than her real age. Do not get me wrong, I agree that children should stay innocent as long as possible, but some children are born "older than their age" and with rather a huge talent that cannot be contained.
