Angelina's birthday is January 10 2006. Angelina's commitment to her chosen life pursuit will be come evident as you journey through her singing life. I'll bet you she sang that song all the time before she got to the show. It wouldn't surprise me if she sang that song a thousand times to "get it right". She has that kind of work ethic. She is a trooper she has performed sick through sheer force of will. When she sang with Allen Walker she had a flu bug to get around. She had another bug but still sang, 'Who's Loving You' to a dining room full of donors. Most singers, especially a young one, cannot do what she does.

This was the first time for her in the lime light. You see a cute little girl walking on stage, barefoot (even then!), wild mane of hair, teeth missing and wearing a little princess dress. As soon as she starts singing the artist emerges and she mesmerizes the jury and audience. I invented a word for her: she seems to have a phonographical memory: the song seems to be playing on a tape in her head and she doesn’t lose her pitch or tempo. The second round in Norway got Talent shows that even more: she sings ‘I’m a fool to want you’ (Billie Holiday again) a capella and she doesn’t lose pitch or tempo. It’s mind blowing! Thanks and keep enjoying yourself!

Nobody was prepared for this, the quote of the judge Omar in an interview und he visited her rehearsals to see she's the arranger for all of her performances. A complete Artist at her very young age. They became best friends 💖

I never really knew anything from Billie holiday consciously.... And when I heard Angelina sing this one, It made me think she was all over the place and not doing so well and I couldn't realize why the judges were going nuts and crying... After trying to figure it out by watching it like 5 times, And failing, I finally went and listened to the original from Billie holiday... Then I finally Understood

Yes it is Angelinas mom, who after this performance said something like "At that moment I realised I lost Angelina to the wolrld". I have seen this performance many times and it is still very good, that is good song and good delivery.

She has said she never gets nervous while performing. She’s doing what she loves to do, so no fear. If you haven’t seen the other three performances, you need to do so. They get better each time!

I remember when this performance was posted to YT in 2014 and listening to it again and again in shock.Angelina is a one and only and it's a joy to experience the prodigy maturing into all that talent.

At 7 years old, Angelina bursts onto the world stage with this audition for Norway's Got Talent. Her growth over the course of the show is absolutely phenomenal, particularly considering her next performance is an a cappella version of I'm A Fool To Want You. This series of performances sets the scene for her open-air concert at Allsang Pa Grensen, where she amazes everyone with her cover of What A Difference A Day Makes. The next year she records I Put A Spell On You, and the year after that I'm Still Holding Out For You. This young prodigy's early career as a professional musician began with this performance. Simply astounding.

Angelina said: "Without Billie Holiday, the would be no Angelina Jordan." Sir you do a darnd good job here, congrats. Elmar from Germany.

Just mind boggling every time I watch this and I'm sure it's at least 50 times! A large live audience, panel of judges, you walk out on stage at 7 years old and blow EVERYONE away! Great reaction/ analysis, love your insights!

Jess, the very first thing I did this morning was watch your reaction . . . And it gave me a metaphor we could all use first thing in the morning. Enter the stage of our day, signal for our music, flip back our hair (if any) and use our talents to serve the world. Not a bad way to spend the day -- or a life. 🙏

Angelina has always had the ability to connect, when she performs you get 100% regardless. Quite simple she’s a perfectionist. Watched a video when she was 5, she was showing off her toys when she showed and explained them she returned it, her toy room was extremely neat as was her bedroom when she showed her wardrobe as if everything had a place. Now that she’s 16 her life still seems very orderly especially in her performances. I don’t think Angelina would or could do a song she didn’t comment 100%.

Beautiful reaction. Angelina, at any age, in any situation, is simply stunning! 💛🧡❤

YOUNGEST LEGEND

Here is a quote from Angelina (7y) from an interview with TV2 after her Auditions NTG 2014. "The reason I chose this song is completely random. I love jazz, but" Gloomy Sunday "was random. It was a night I could not sleep and my mother was stressed that I was awake long after midnight. Then I borrowed my mom's iPad where I wanted to listen to jazz on KZfaq before I fell asleep. Then came a picture of a beautiful lady screaming at the sky and with her eyes closed. I heard the song "Gloomy Sunday" that night and then I had to hear it every day. I love the melody. I understood well what the text was about because I know English well. Every time I sang it I felt something special about it, it's hard to explain in words. When I sang it for mom, she said that this song is nice, but that it was incredibly sad song. " ♥👣👸🏻🎷 In a interview after this performance Angelina's mom was asked why she was crying during her performance?? Were they happy tears?? Mom said; " They were happy tears but they were also sad tears because I know I just lost my daughter to the world at that point in time, ♥👣👸🏻🎷

Angelina Jordan has been exceptional! She was exceptional when she was 6 years old signing " I, who have nothing" in the studio, and, she is exceptional now at the age of 16! She is a gift! And I am truly addicted to her voice & can't hold my tears back when she signs!

When asked in an interview why she was crying during the performance, mom Sara replied that at that moment she knew that she had to share her daughter with the world. Thank you, Sara Angelina asked to audition when she was 5, but was told that she had to be 7.

Thanks for this great reaction! This performance is iconic. We angels (AJ fans) come back to it again and again, and every time it sends chills down my spine. But it struck me that we don't get a good impression of just how tiny she is from a video. look around you and find a slim seven-year-old and imagine her coming out with something like this! No wonder the judges were blown away.

Amazing is, that angelina at this age was singing 5 years jazzy songs, this performance is so good, unbelievebel and this was the beginning from her path to the humbel and kindest diva ever 👑♥️🌹🌟

The angel of song performs !!!

Nice reaction. When Angelina gets the microphone in her hand she's all business. She's a totally amazing young lady.

Awesome reaction to the beginning of a Super Star Icon, God Bless!

Please listen to her next song I`M A FOOL TO WANT YOU where she performs ACAPELA

Thank you for always have wonderful reactions of Angelina! 😀💫🙏👌❤️

Thanks for your continued support of Angelina. Anyone involved with her in any way knows she deserves it! This was the first audition for Norway's Got Talent and there are three more performances. I know there is a video that has all the performances and her winning moment on one video. It would make a great reaction.

Great reaction. Yes, that was her mom crying backstage. Tears of joy, of course, but mom also knew she was about to share Angelina, her daughter, with the rest of the world. Scary moment, indeed, but fast forwarding indicates everything has worked out beautifully and her extremely loving family is closer than ever. It's just that there are a few million people around the world who have included Angelina in their families! :):)

8 yo in 2014. But this happened in 2013, when she was still 7. I never tire of hearing this. I love your enthusiasm and appreciation for the details of the setup. Thank you for this reaction. 💜

Hey, one of the best reactions I've ever heard to this performance (AJ's first real performance in front of an audience). I really appreciate your passion for great singing and your outstanding insights into what makes great music. You have an exceptional ear and the ability to articulate what you hear so your audience understands it. Thanks.

Well, I have listened to this about 997 times and each time it somehow gets better WOW.

Her poise is stunning at age 7!

Thank you for caring for Angelina, excellent reaction where you begin to realize what a special human being!! Now, if you want to be even more surprised, check out the film made by her grandmother's cell phone, where she sings I WHO HAVE NOTHING, in a studio, at the age of 6 (you can say at the beginning of the 7 years), where she shows what came and already aims at future perfection, a true rite of passage.

Great reaction, I like how you always add a little something extra with your technical knowledge of voice and sound equipment. On to the next one!

Thank you for your reaction. Now you also have to watch her other 3 performances on NGT, " I'm a fool to want you " acapella, " Bang Bang" and last one, " Summertime".

Thank you brother for your awesome reaction and commentary. Love your breakdown. Just watched your I'll Be There reaction also. Our Angel needs more reactors like yourself. Enjoy Bruno and looking forward to future videos.

I Love her, She will change our world

That was another wonderful reaction BEL. You really seemed to understand the absolute talent of this young girl, here at 7 years old tackling a Billy Holiday song.... how many children would do that....just one I know of. Pure music genius even at this age. Thanks for your time and sharing this with all of us. Cheers, stay well.

You are spot on Angelina she’s how she is going to sang Prodigy

Thanks for another wonderful reaction. Greatly appreciate your pointing out the details that some of us are too novice to see and hear. I truly envy your awareness. Now, imagine that Angelina is equally more sensitive compared to yourself for what she hears when listening to other great singers. I believe she must have an unfathomable hearing sensitivity; perfect pitch on steroids! Her ability transcends reproducing sounds, she re-emits the emotions of other vocalists.

Great reaction ! Angelina was born on Jan 10th 2006, so this was uploaded when she had JUST turned 8. She was still 7 at the time of performing it. This would make her 10 years old in 2016, and not 2014 😉 Greetings from Norway ♥♥♥

Great reaction. I fell in love with her after I saw this back in 2014. I wondered if she would continue with that & she did. What Angie said about "GS" The reason I chose this song is completely random. I love jazz, but “Gloomy Sunday “ was random. It was a night I could not sleep and my mother was stressed that I was awake long after midnight. Then I borrowed my mom's iPad, where I wanted to listen to jazz on KZfaq before I fell asleep. Then came a picture of a beautiful lady screaming at the sky and with her eyes closed. I heard the song “Gloomy Sunday” that night and then I had to hear it every day. I love the melody. I understood well what the text was about because I know English well. Every time I sang it I felt something special about it, it's hard to explain in words. When I sang it for mom, she said that this song is nice, but that it was incredibly sad song.” (Sara, Angie's mom was asked what she thought when she saw her on the screen backstage, (she was wiping her tears when watching) “I knew I had just lost my little girl to the world”) The family has always been very close & since that even more protective of her from the entertainment industry’s vultures & hyena's. From TIME magazine This 7-Year Old's Incredible Voice Will Give You Chills as She Channels Billie Holiday BY MELISSA LOCKER MARCH 10, 2014 11:59 AM EDT A 7-year-old girl managed to absolutely wow the judges on a televised talent show with her spot-on rendition of Billy Holiday’s “Gloomy Sunday.” The youngster, Angelina Jordan, appeared on the stage of “Norway’s Got Talent”, barefoot and in a white dress, and announced that she would be be singing Holiday’s dark jazz standard. The skeptical judges were blown away from the moment she started singing. Please watch Angelina gives a short little interview when she was 9) explaining why she performs barefoot & about the book she wrote. Angelina Jordan interviewed by Anne Lindmo, NRK TV “Lindmo” 14/11/2015 (eng & esp sub) kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Y8lzf6eKlam3imw.html during interview she is ask to sing. (Please do a reaction to this very touching story & also part 2 below is her singing) together their about 6 min. Part 2 Angie sings “Unchained Melody” by the Righteous Brothers at (9) kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ra2apLuptsiql3U.html this is also a nice video to react to as a double reaction

Yes, that was Angelina's mom. She said she was crying because she realized that she would from now on, have to share her daughter with the world. When the judge asked her if she knew what the song was about, she said that it was about a sad day. The judge wanted to know if she knew that this song was about suicide. She didn't, but when her family found out what it was about, she stopped singing the song.

(Prodigy) brings her voice and emotions perform a song she don’t she don’t need bells and whistle just her voice

Thank you!🇸🇪👍👍👍

Appreciate your insight 😊

Yes .. a lot of what you said .. especially that she's not just letting go but she's doing exactly what she wanted to do .. are the very reasons she broke the Internet with this song .. world- wide. And even if many people wouldn't break it down the way you did .. they FELT it .. seriously felt it .. and she was SEVEN!

You should watch it again and set your computer to English translation,, also I think you would like the interview she did now the American show the "View" when she song the song " fly me to the moon " at age 8 years old ,, she talks about when she started to sing and what kind of music she liked ,, you will enjoy

If you compare this 7 year old's version of the song to the original by Billie Holiday, when I believe Billie was 29, you will know why all the talk about Billie being reincarnated in this girl, for the two songs sound like Billie did both of them. She also does this 'vocal chameleon' thing with regard to Dinah Washington's song 'What A Difference A Day Makes'. Angelina was 8 when she first did that one but, once again, she sounds exactly like the original artist.

Thanks for your soulful réaction. Please, please react to the rehersal of "portrait of a child" (same band, same age (9 yo) "I put a spell on you"). Excusez le mauvais anglais. Regardez la version sans sous-titres, le son est bien meilleur côté instruments. I like a lot your réactions. Love from France.

Like a 7-year-9ld Norwegian Billie Holliday. The only difference is I've heard Holliday sing this song many times and it never brought tears to my eyes. How does she work that emotional magic? It's like I never really understood the song till I heard Angelina's version. All those times I listened to Holliday sing it I knew it was a sad song but it never connected with me and yet the first time I heard this performance the feeling flooded in and it touched my heart.

I did watch to the end this time. With this video you made that easy, because a lot of overhead was not tacked onto the end. But, if you do need to tack on some overhead and anticipate some or many viewers will bail before playing to the end, then maybe consider encouraging them to skip to the end, so YT counts the add trigger.

to bad you didn't play to end.....was really good......nice reaction........

This is the best section and you noticed it

I found it to be more impactful to state her age in terms of months... And then tell people just to realize how fast a month goes by, And then count to 110 or whatever it is...

Love your reviews & when u said u need a musical reviewer to help explain Angelina's sound I give u Paolo Bassotto, he to is astounded by AJ 😂

🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

If you listen to Billie Holiday's recording, it shockingly sounds almost the same!

Bel you have to hear the winning song of Angie summertime love your reaction thanks

It wasn't posted until 2014 she did it in May of 2013

Let me suggest that you turn your attention to the unique singer from Russia - *Diana* *Ankudinova* . This is the case when the genre, style, musical direction in which she sings is not important, but only her unique, inimitable voice and the way she presents the song itself to us are important!

The captions are *so* screwed up on this version, it's really frustrating.🤨 Here's a much better subtitled version (with the text in the video image itself, not relying on YT's "CC" feature) that is also a lot longer, with more "context" before and after she sings: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mpmXhsugnt_KaGw.html It's worth checking out, even though you've already seen her performance.

Thanks for another great reaction to Angelina. Have you seen this rehearsal session kzfaq.info/get/bejne/eLmdYNJ-zLynn2w.html for her Summertime performance at NGT kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mNSgedZ0s7Hedps.html It would be fun to combine them both for reaction, and hear your thoughts. They showcase real commitment to her art.

If you wanna see some awesome violin playing look up (Lili Haydn Performing Maggot Brain - Live 2011)

Great reaction but there was more interesting discussion between the judges beyond the point you stopped.

Immerse yourself in the world of unearthly voice. I recommend making a reaction to one of the best vocalists in the world 1) super unique voice (dramatic contralto with polyphonic overtones); 2) the most complex vocal techniques, a bewitching voice; 3) the incredible fate of a girl found with a broken collarbone at a bus stop and ended up in an orphanage; 4) 70 victories in vocal competitions - a child prodigy; 5) can sing in any musical genre, 6) Diana sings in 6 languages: English, French, Russian, German, Spanish, Arabic; 7) incredible charisma, artistry and living of any song; 8) a range of 4 octaves, which at the age of 19 is far from the limit and will continue to grow; 9) a large army of fans around the world; 10) an independent artist, without producers and labels, only with the support of fans and reactors like you; 11) and now she is also a talented lyricist and composer of her music; 12) more than 13 thousand reactions. some reactions have 3.5 million views. Meet Diana Ankudinova!

The guy they show when she gets the standing O is her dad. Rarely seen. Thanks for the great reaction. You're good at this. See you next time.

All you have to remember is AJ's birth date Jan. 10, 2006. It's not difficult!

that time she didnt have help from profesionels. later though

Can you react to DANELİYA TULESHOVA she is young and worldwide talent i recommend

Here's the original Billie Holiday. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jrdidNh9xqnQnZ8.html

Please start listening to DIMASH.. Start with S.O.S...Stranger..Hello..

Gloomy Sunday is called the Hungarian suicide song for good reason. Interesting choice for a 7 year old, but she's great.

Unfortunately you got the bad sub version.
