Angelina I’d say is a prodigy. She’s a singer, plays the flute, piano and violin and has also written a book. She’s just 13.

I have listened to Angelina every day for 8 years...since she was 8. I have never become tired or bored of her due to the way she embodies different genre and vocal techniques yet maintains her distinctive individuality. I prefer many of her covers to the originals. BANG BANG..., IM HOLDING OUT GOR YOU, and STAY, not to mention this years Elvis cover SUSPICIOUS MINDS.

Since Angelina is new to you and maybe some of your followers, here's a quick bio: - Angelina Jordan was born in Jan 2006. She is currently 13 (barely 9 in this performance) - She began singing at the age of one and a half - At 2 or 3 she discovered Jazz through KZfaq videos and studied all greats from Jazz history. - When Angelina was 6, she was traveling and met a poor girl with no shoes trying to make money on the streets. The girl complimented her on her pretty shoes, so Angelina took them off and gave them to the girl. She made a vow to always sing barefoot until all the children of the world have shoes. To this day, whenever Angelina is performing in public she is barefoot. (that's a shortened version. the full story is more touching than the way I have told it here) - She has always been the driving force behind her own singing career. It was her that asked her mother to take her to Norways Got Talent, where she auditioned at 7 years old and went on to win the show at just 8 years old. - In an interview after the show, when asked what she was going to do with the money, the 8 year old replied "I would like to give it to orphans that need clothes and shoes" - The reason you may not have heard of her is because her parents are very protective of her childhood. They do not want her to be thrust into stardom before she has a chance to grow up as a normal child, and finish her education. They allow her to do a few select shows (mainly private and charity events) with a couple public shows every year when she is out of school. Her mother said in an interview that they have turned down 90% of the offers that come in. I have heard they have turned down offers from many record labels and even disney. - Angelina has covered more than 80 songs over the last 5 years, everything ranging from old classics to modern pop. She is able to change her voice to match any song she sings and make it her own. (she can cover Amy winehouse and Lana del Rey like nobody else) - Angelina has collaborated with some very big names over the last few years... Quincy Jones, Mark Ronson, David Foster, and many more. All of which heard her doing covers of their songs and were blown away. - Angelina has written three of her own original songs (at 12 years old): "What is Life", "Shield" and "Oslo". (all are amazing) In summary, Angelina Jordan is destined to be one of the greatest singers to have ever lived. This is just my opinion, but if you listen closely to any of her stuff you will hear the greatness. She sings with a natural style. There is no acting, no showing off, there are no unnecessary runs, or big belty notes just for the purpose of saying "hey look at me sing". She once said "when I sing I go into a magical world in my head", and you can hear the results of that. When Angelina sings it is pure soul, pure emotion, pure music.

sheez phenomenal..9 years old....a session for history.l

Her Iranian grandmother, who was a child art prodigy, used to take care of her when she as a kid. Grandma had a large music collection and they used to listen to it together. She was apparently a huge influence in her life. When her grandmother was ready for college, she had asked her parents to send her to Japan for college because she loved Japanese art. There she met a japanese art professor who she married and Angelina's mother was born. Her mother married a Swedish oil engineer and they lived in Norway when her marriage ended. Her daughter, obviously inherited the family's knack for genius. They all supported Angelina's musical passion,even to the point of entering her into Norway's GotTalent. After she won, which I imagine was a surprize, they were very cautious in how the made her available to the public but obviously spent a great deal of money training her. Lately they seem to have made her more available to the public.

She put a spell on all of us!!! Lols!

I have been following Angelina since she won Norway's Got Talent at age 7. You asked about her parents. Neither is a musician. She has been drawn to jazz from age of 3. Look up jer acapella audition for Norway's got Talent.

Lol. Angelina is a phenom… a musical genius. In many of our opinions, she is one of, if not the best vocalist of this era. She is truly incredible.

Angelina is one of the most addictive singers I have ever listened to, & one of the very few, that can pull you right into the song, making you feel, every word, every note, & every emotion. ❤️💙 I always have this feeling that Angelina is not only channeling some of these late great singers, but that they also pass through her, when she is singing their song ❤️💙 A rare beauty, in every sense of the word ❤️💙 Loved your reaction!!!

And this is the voice I have been waiting to hear forever....she has a gift and she sings from her soul.....no pretence...no over singing...she is a one off xxx

Earworms are what you get when you listen to music that is so beautiful you cannot get it out of your head. After listening to the many recordings and videos that Angelina Jordan has made, I have earworms that keep me entertained and amazed throughout my day and in my dreams at night. She is destined to be a superstar!

Heads up, she was 7.....Every beautiful note-phrase and intonation set aside for a moment, when she sings, ''It sends shivers down my spine'' is a spiritual sensation. She was born (maybe has a reincarnation or 2) with this raw emotional expression through singing (vocalist). This is not (can't be) taught. Yes she is a vocalist, but more, she is an artist of expression though her voice-emotion. I would think the souls like Amy Winehouse and other voice-expression artist have visited her. Whether she (or anyone else) knows it or not. She is ''star dust'' of emotional expression. Like seeing the Sistine Chapel, Mona Lisa or the statue of David for the first time. Check out her reditional of Queens Song, on AGT at 13 yo... That will (or has) Blown you away, enjoy

This person was born to sing.

With this performance, Angelina tears your heart out, stomps on it, and puts it back again then rips it out again in the end. AMAZING!!!!!

There are blacks in Norway and I did see some around her in the Norway singing thing. She sings that song "your daddy's rich and your mom is good looking", true, her mom is good looking. My guess is mom really loves blues & jazz or she had a black boyfriend who introduced her blues and jazz. and she played them constantly when she was pregnant. The thing is she does covers, better than the original singer, no matter who it is. I put a link up on a blog I'm on, mostly retired military, some are pushing 100 and one or two are over the century line and they all loved her. Especially the blues and jazz fans, they went totally nuts. One guy said I couldn't stop watching and listening, each song left him wanting more.

When ur like "ok lets have a look at this little gurl!" and your fucking face melts... :O

Mind blowing, isn't it?

I like the respectful silence during this reaction.

Best Angelina,s song foreever!

Angelina gave out her debut single November 2020. And it's truly amazing. She won Norway got talent 2014 at the age of 7. Both her parents are artistic, but not in music. I believe she has the music part from her grandfather. Her own words about this song: "This song is dedicated to anyone who has lost a loved one. I wrote this song and thought about all the good memories I had with my grandfather and how painful it is to lose someone. I hope this song finds a place in your heart, as it comes straight from mine. "

You wonder what the musicians are thinking? This young lady is more than Amy Winehouse.....This young lady is Angelina Jordan:-)))

She is the only one in the world that can do that!

Professional musicians LOVE to perform with such a good singer.

I can't find words that would justify how talented and amazing that lovely singer Angelina Jordan is. So, I will say that, she is from out of this world talented singer, she really hypnotizes, with her beauty & her incomparable BEAUTIFUL voice.

“I did not expect that.” - Like the Spanish Inquisition, nobody expects Angelina Jordan.

Angelina Jordan (born Angelina Jordan Astar on 10 January 2006) is a Norwegian child singer, of Iranian ancestry, whose audition for the 2014 season of Norway's Got Talent at the age of seven, singing "Gloomy Sunday" in the style of Billie Holiday, became a viral video online, and led to worldwide press coverage.[1][2] She went on to win the competition (at eight) with her performance of George Gershwin's "Summertime". Since then she has worked to raise millions of dollars on behalf of environmental causes and children's charities around the world. She always performs barefoot, after befriending a young shoeless girl while traveling when she was six years old. Jordan wrote a book about the experience and became the youngest published author in Norway. After Jordan's performances of two Billie Holiday songs, "Gloomy Sunday" and "I'm a Fool to Want You", on Norway's Got Talent, as well as "Fly Me to the Moon" on a TV talk show, all went viral online in March 2014, she was featured in Time,[1] Daily Mirror,] People, and other news outlets around the world.[6] She continued in the competition singing Nancy Sinatra's version of "Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down)" live in the semifinals,[7] and won with her performance of George Gershwin's "Summertime", in the style of Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong's 1958 recording of the song. In September 2014, she performed "Fly Me to the Moon" on the US television show The View,[8] bringing her wider fame in the United States. She also performed on several TV 2 programs in Norway over the next few years, including multiple appearances on Allsang på Grensen (Singalong at the Border, referring to the border fortress of Fredriksten where outdoor concerts are held) and on TV4 in Sweden. Jordan had a small guest role in the final episode of the Netflix series Lilyhammer, playing a girl who sings in a bar.[9] In December 2014, she realized a personal ambition by performing for Peace Prize recipients Malala Yousafzai and Kailash Satyarthi at the Nobel Peace Prize Concert.[10] Jordan's recording debut, the three-song maxi-single My Christmas, was released in December 2014.[11] To support the release, Jordan performed the songs on multiple TV shows, including an appearance on Christmas Day. In 2015, Jordan began recording music that would eventually be collected on the six-song Angelina Jordan - The EP, released on 27 November 2017.[12] Many of the tracks were posted to her official KZfaq channel[13] well in advance of the EP release, in the form of music videos and lyric videos. These included her covers of Screamin' Jay Hawkins' "I Put a Spell on You", the music video for which was directed by Per Heimly, and Amy Winehouse's "Back to Black", in which Jordan sang her own original lyrics. These two music videos became the most popular videos on her official KZfaq channel, surpassing 5 million views each by 2020. In 2017, she created a second KZfaq channel specifically to present performances of cover songs.[14] In November 2015, Jordan published the book Mellom to hjerter (Between Two Hearts), illustrated by her grandmother, Iranian artist Mery Zamani.[15] The book tells the story of her meeting a poor motherless girl in Asia who has no shoes. After a long conversation in which they discuss their dreams in life, she gives the girl her shoes and the girl promises to pray for Jordan to fulfill her dream to become a successful singer. According to Jordan the book is based on a real incident which she cites as the reason for always performing barefoot.[16] In April 2016, Jordan performed "Fly Me to the Moon" on the first season of the noncompetitive children's talent show Little Big Shots.[17] A year later she performed "What a Difference a Day Makes" on the UK version of the show. She also performed "I Put a Spell on You" on the German edition of the show, Little Big Stars, in 2017. In December 2016, she performed on Alan Walker is Heading Home, a live concert broadcast from Bergen, Norway, where she sang Walker's songs "Sing Me to Sleep" and "Faded".[18] On 15 June 2018, a full album of recordings with Staff Band of the Norwegian Armed Forces (Forsvarets stabsmusikkorps), called It's Magic, was released.[19] The next day, Jordan and the band performed the full album live in a concert attended by Norway's Prime Minister. On 27 June 2018, Jordan performed "Fly Me to the Moon" for Quincy Jones in The O2 Arena in London, as part of his 85th birthday celebration, and also joined with other singers to perform "Man in the Mirror" to close the show.[20][21] In 2019, Jordan performed for former president Barack Obama and other public figures at the Brilliant Minds conference in Stockholm. In October 2019, she competed in the second season of America's Got Talent: The Champions, which was aired in January and February 2020.[22] Her first appearance on the show, singing an original arrangement of Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody", received a "golden buzzer" from judge Heidi Klum (meaning that Jordan would pass directly into the finals). As with her Norway's Got Talent audition six years earlier, a video of Jordan's performance began to go viral on KZfaq, quickly reaching 10 million views.[23] The performance also garnered praise from Queen's official Twitter account.[24] Shortly afterwards, the video was taken down[23] and Jordan released a studio version of the same arrangement under her own copyright.[25] Jordan's second performance (in the finals), a similarly reworked "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road" based largely on a version by Sara Bareilles, was also well received, but she was not among the top 5 acts. In August 2020, Jordan's manager (her uncle, Michael Astar) announced that she had signed with Republic Records.[3] Her first single on the label, "Million Miles", was released on 6 November 2020, on all major digital platforms.[4] An official lyric video was posted to her official KZfaq channel the same day.[26] The track was produced by the Norwegian duo Stargate, who also co-wrote the song with Jordan.[27] She has since released two additional music videos for the song: one showing her singing the song "live" in a recording studio, the other an "official music video" featuring her younger sister.[28][29] Jordan was born in Oslo, Norway, and has lived for extended periods both there and in Los Angeles. She also lived for a time in the Middle East. She has a younger sister who has been featured in two of her music videos. Her father, Gerry Christian Slattman, is Swedish. Her Norwegian mother, Sara Astar, is the daughter of Iranian artist and poet Mery Zamani and a Japanese father.[31][16] Jordan attended the Oslo Waldorf School and participated in the Oslo School of Music and Performing Arts after-school program, where she received vocal training. In addition to singing, she plays the piano, violin, guitar, and flute, and also paints.[32] As of 2020, she is living and going to school in Los Angeles As of 2019, Angelina Jordan’s estimatednet worth is $9.4 million .

You put your headphones on without knowing you are about to have a paradigm shift.

9 yrs old. She's even more amazing now she's gonna be the brightest of all superstars ever

I recommend Spellbound for the fans.

She said in an interview she goes to another world, sort of. She said it was really big. I think she channels when she sings. She changes with every song.

You did expect another high belting girl, didn't you? Like all the other child singers of today. They are singing their lungs out, she is pouring out her soul... She is different, totaly diffrent. She is acctually 9 years old when tjis was recorded, not 10 as most think. Not that it matters when it comes to her, I am sure dhe came out of her mother singing jazz. She won Norways got talent when she was 8. Entered when she was 7. She was un a league of her own, it was clear when she opent her mouth and sung gloomy sunday by Billie Holiday, that she was already the winner. She is known today, but not as much as one should expect, it is because she doesnt go all out to be that superstar that she one day really want to be. Her parents are holding her back, in a very good way. They want her to have a solid normal childhood, not be a superstar. But she do take singing lessons. She is 13 now. She has some songs that she herself made, Oslo, shield and what is life. Shield m.kzfaq.info/get/bejne/orekiMWHsMiUpqc.html

She sings a song that will knock your socks off. The title of the song his - born to die

I think her mom listened to this music constantly. She sings like she is chaneling some jazz artists that sing from the soul no doubt. Turns us all inside out and want more and more. Course she is 13 now and even more incredible. Enjoyed your reaction. Just all blown away.........the goosebumps!

That is what you call perfection dude. Period.

I love her so much and I believe she is a Legend in the making!!! Thank you for your reaction to her. This is the third time I have watched this reaction video because I love your reaction!!! Looking forward to your next reaction to her. God Bless from Lakewood, Washington USA

She has an absolutely unique jazz/soul voice. Close your eyes and you think it's a an at least 40 years old matured woman with decades of life experience.

Angelina won Norway got talent at the age of 7. She was exposed to jazz as her parents were listening to jazzrecords.she was only 2-3 years of age. She started ro listen to jazz on you tube. This is in a nutshell

She plays several instruments and composes also.

Soooooo goooood. Isn’t she amazing.... such feeling. Absolutely not kids stuff. Amazing Angelina

It's a gift from God! She took an early liking to people like Billie Holiday and Amy Winehouse. She does have original music like her song "Shield".

She started singing at less than two years of age. She's watched jazz and blues videos. She's all over Europe. She sang at the Nobel Peace Prize concert when she was 7 or 8 years old.

and she just put a spell on you!

to me angelina is the best of all i love all her songs

Angelina is in her own League. You haven't discovered anything yet.

She actually started singing when she was 3 years old, she learned from listening to her grandmother Jazz records.

Angelina é maravilhosamente fantástica! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

sheez just turning 10) in this...sheez a phenom...period.

😂😂😂 You've just got Angelina-isd! She does love Jazz and Blue. I'm totally addicted to her sound.

No Hahahah she is NOT posessed by the devil....but but singing in her own way......

She is 9..NINE..her Grandmother exposed her to a lot of this music from the beginning..watch a video of her at 6..she is, and always has been, incredible.

She was 9yrs old in this video. She doesn't wear shoes because it's to honor a little girl that she met didn't have any shoes and she gave her her shoes it's for poor kids she makes her own clothes she's now 13 she want Norway's Got Talent at the age of 7 her audition song was Gloomy Sunday by Billie Holiday turo car was amazing she just likes jazz music and she started singing when she was very very young like by the age of 2 she has a pretty amazing story and she just gets more beautiful the older she gets

Grandma introduced her to music

I had to pause at 2:55 to LAUGH MY ASS OFF!

Grandma introduced her to Jazz FROM the start of 1 1/2

Apparently her grandmother has an extensive classic jazz collection which she played around her. She also plays multiple instruments and does her own orchestrations and arrangements

Dad is an engineer and looks like mom takes care of Angelina and her little sister. KZfaq is where her mom says she found music and there is a small music shop.

She is untouchable!! Original artist's hide in Shame when Angelina does one of their cover songs!!

She is an old soul in a young body...she's gifted!!! Love her! I love the blues💙🎵🎶🎤

Started singing age 2, won Norway’s got talent, auditioned with billie holiday’s Gloomy Sunday, she learned initially by watching KZfaq clips of jazz and she is worth watching doing her early stuff.

I think she comes from a single parent home. She has been singing since she was 1 1/2. I have always thought that someone was coaching her, but no one has given her background so far.

I am crying. I am literally crying and I never cry. HOLY SHIT!

She's amazing. This should not really be possible by a 9 year old. SuperWOW.

She has an original called "Shield". She also does an amazing acoustic cover of Adele's 'A Million Years Ago'. Angelina has an emotional range and vocal talent far beyond her years. She started listening to jazz as a toddler and her audition for Norways Got Talent (which she won) was "Gloomy Sunday' from Billie Holiday when she was 7 years old. Just an incredible talent!

She is 9 yrs old here. Now she is 13 yrs old.. What does she.sound like in her 20s?

Also.... to add in to what others have said.... her grandmother played jazz in her home when she was very young which started her love for jazz!!

Fantastic news! Angelina has just been named as a contestant on America's Got Talent the Champions taking place in January. This is her first Major Performance in the United States since she was a child, but now an aspiring star. She has a new album of Originals coming soon and this may tie in in some way. We wish her the best as she is a treasure. Please share this with all your subscribers

She's adorable! No one have this voice today!

Her grandmother is an artist ,painter and she also love this Kine of music so Angelina have been listening to Jazz from She was born.

She’s 7 here 15 now and 13 when she was in AGT Look at Yellow Brick Rd and Bohemian Rhapsody .

Not possessed by the devil, my dear. But I love your reaction. Smask

Angelina has an uncanny ability to grasp the essence of song - and a wide array of them. She usually sings them, old and new tunes, as well or better than the original artists; and that in her preteen years. She a touched-by-God once in a lifetime artist in my opinion; a real gift for all of us.

She is channelling. Old soul. She came here to wake us up with music, that is the best way to get people to think by their heart, not by mind.

Great reaction man. She is amazing

In this video at the age of nine she composed and choreographed it. And has done it to every song that she has done after that. In the video you see the guy reading her lyrics that she decided what she was going to sing. And today she’s at the age of 15 and she’s already a self-made millionaire. Norway has a statue of her. She is a celebrity in Norway. Norwegian is her original language English is another language that she speaks and reads she’s very versatile in different languages. She wrote a book in Norway when she was very young she’s even in the Guinness book world records for Norway’s most youngest authors. She is with no doubt a prodigy.

We’ve been following her for 5 years. She is amazing. Her love is jazz and blues. Listen to all her videos. She’s an old soul and unbelievably talented. Just the best singer right now.

Angelina is star in the making, one of my favorite artist. Thank you!

She's been hearing listing and singing Billy Holiday since she was born. But still her talent is natural and God given

This is what I call an honest reaction, It is like he was hit by a train. One thing about Angelina, while most of the children was eating sand at the kindergarten, Angelina was singing jazz. The barefoot scene has a reason, a quick search on Google you will know the history. Her music background is very eclectic, with 130 ish videos on KZfaq going from Billy Holiday to Whitney Houston, Adele, Lana del Rey, and many others. Her last kickass performance is participating in Americas Got talent the champions. She recorded 3 original singles, and she the youngest published author in Norway. Her book tells why she performs barefoot.

The Spanish Inquisition of performances. NO ONE can expect that. I wonder how many times the musicians dropped their jaws, too.

She has been singing since the age of five he’s been on KZfaq since the age of seven and won the Norway talent show that’s her everything’s all right going for her

She went all the way back to the Screaming Jay Hawkins version of the song. The guy used to come out of a coffin, for Christs sake, When he sang this song on stage. Very much his influence on this rendition here. Adding the Jazz arrangement was really cool though.. Much different than Bette Midler or CCR's versions. I've heard Angelina do quite a range of different material, and she manages to capture the essence of mostly everything she does. Quite a talented young lady. I think we'll be hearing more from her in the future. *Cheers*

Shock and awe. Natural reaction.

The candle photo is Screaming Jay Hawkins. She rewrote the lyrics because Jays lyrics were almost x-rated. She actually started with jazz when her mom took her to the library and she got some old jazz vinyl. Her favorite was Billie Holiday's Gloomy Sunday that she sang on Norways Got Tallent. You should to a reaction on that one. She was only seven.

She said in an interview on norwegian radio that her inspiration came from watching the old music on youtube. She just loved the songs, obviously! Besides being brilliant techically and moving people to their souls, she must be an amazingly keen listener. I am dumbstruck and moved to tears by her :) She is truly unique.

Mightily !! Incredibly !! For me explosion in ears !! 💣💣💣👍👍

10............... times!

You are in the presence of true genius

You just got possessed and now your under her spell😻

Her parents in Norway let her decide what she liked to do and about age 2 she heard her parents play old jazz records.She fell in love with Billy Holiday and her songs and would listen to them and other jazz records for hours. She says when she sings she goes to a place in her mind that's beautiful and she feels very free.She's written a few songs, "Shield" and "What is Life". I love her version of "What a Difference a Day Makes", Fly Me To The Moon", "Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down)", "A Million Years Ago" and "Back to Black". She is a pupil at Oslo Waldorf School Oslo Waldorf School and also attends the after-school program Oslo School of Music and Performing Art where she receives vocal training. In addition to singing she plays the piano, violin and flute.

Ste started singing jazz at 18 months. I saw fear in your face when you started feeling inadequate both as a human being and a musician. We all went through it.

Angelina Jordon's grandmother is an artist. Grandmother is mixed race - father Japanese, mother Iranian. She is a jazz / blues lover and passed that love on to Angelina. She always performs in bare feet in tribute to poor children who don't have a future. Please check out and review Angelina singing Billie Holliday. She should not be reviewed as a child but simply as someone who has a deep and profound connection to African American music. The late Amiri Baraka / LeRoi Jones would love her

Great reation, she my 2 favor singer, she so amaizingI love this song😍😍😍👍👍👍👍

I like the point you make about how surprising it is that someone so young can have absorbed so much *essence* of music. Not just knowledge. Many kids have listened to a lot since very young, but very few, like Angelina and Grace Vanderwaal, have the special ability to take in deep down what can be done with different genres. A part of true talent. And it was fun to see yr taken by surprise reaction.

Old old soul. In awe.

I too think she's out of this world amazing! Absolutely love her deep Jazz raspy voice and how she sings so easily and in my eyes perfect. I like Aurora, too, even though I don't compare them, very different. Can you react to her, too? I loved this video! Your concentration and eyes said it all! Funny to see your reaction! ;-)

I've watched a lot of Angelina, but I always come back to this performance as the most impressive performance of hers that I have seen. Another favorite of mine is "A Million Years Ago".

She was 9 when she recorded this. Mind-boggling. Listen to her AGT rendition of Bohemian Rhapsody. Equally amazing.

I'm glad you found her. She's an astonishing talent. Has been since she was 7

This is like cracking open an egg and finding diamonds inside. Totally uncommon for anyone to do this song with such passion. But a nine year old Norwegian girl?? Angelina. Soon will be dubbed AJAY, like Cher or the like. No matter what song she sings, she nails the feeling needed. She doesn't simply sing, she PERFORMS the song.

None of us expected this!
