She is so impressive, and the same year she recorded this she also wrote a book and became the youngest published author in Norway. Not only that she has been recording songs in a studio since she was 6 in English which is her 3rd language she speaks Norwegian, Farsi, English, and some Japanese. Not only is she talented, and smart she is humble and kind, even before she was ever signed to a label she has raised 21 million euros for charities for children and the environment and that is coming from a child who is not a millionaire herself. Just thought I would give some impressive facts besides her singing.

Angelina casts another spell. BORN TO SING is a statement that now has two categories, Angelina and everyone else. Angelina is a music prodigy specializing in vocals, the only such prodigy I know of. As talented as Angelina is, she is an even better person, filled with empathy. She has vowed to always perform barefoot until every child on Earth has shoes. Here is how that mission began. 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 befriended this girl who was wearing soiled clothing and no 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.” 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 so moved by the poor girl, took off her favorite sea green ankle boots and gave them to the poor shoeless girl. Angelina promised the girl she would perform barefoot until every child on Earth has shoes. Angelina still says she thinks of that homeless girl every day and has always performed barefoot. At age 9, she became the youngest published author in Norway’s history by writing a book about this encounter in the Middle East.

Angelina said in an interview that she started singing along to music when she was eighteen months old. Her grandmother, who was also a child prodigy but more in the visual arts played old jazz standards constantly and Angelina fell in love with them. She started learning to sing seriously at age three. Since I first studied the history of music decades ago (I'm 57), I've often wondered what it would have been like to see Mozart perform when he was a child. Now I know... Since Ginger loves Frank Sinatra, you guys should take a look at Angelina's music video for Fly Me To the Moon. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/oNSercWV2ZrDgnk.html She also has another personal piece called Shield that is about her mother. It really sounds like it could be a Bond theme! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/o55_dsVy0djDZGw.html

One of the best calls ever made - and we are all happy they filmed the one time when she showed off that muscle. In a decade or so, I would not be surprised if she will growl at us again while our jaws make rattling sounds as they hit the floor - again. When that happens - some select few of us will remember this sample from her childhood.

You have SOOOOOO much more to discover from Angelina. Having reacted to Million Miles and I Put a Spell on You, I would recommend I'd Rather Go Blind (Etta James), Fly Me to the Moon (Frank Sinatra), Young and Beautiful (Lana del Rey), and I'm Still Holding Out for You (Baby Fuzz). I think those four will give you a pretty good representation of the versatility of this extraordinary talent. Of course there are so many great performances from Angelina you really can't go wrong with any of them. The rabbit hole is deep, but it is a journey well worth taking.

Yes, she is amazingly talented and I just love all her music. Her home always had Jazz music playing, when she was in her mothers womb she was listening to Jazz and while in her cot, listening to Jazz. There is a video of her singing Jazz at 18 months, so I find it understandable that some 6 years later by honing her skills with practice and tuition, she was ready. This phenomenal young girl actually asked her mother to put her in a singing competition. The result was that she won Norway's Got Talent, the rest my friends is history. Now with over 130+ covers and own tracks later she has proved without doubt that she is one of the best singers on the planet. AJ has recently been signed with Republic records and has released her own song "Million Miles". On 10th January 2021 she will be 15 years old; what a future lies ahead. Enjoy the journey.

Angelina is 9 in this MASTERPIECE! She is paying tribute to the writer and original performer of this classic rock song, Screamin' Jay Hawkins (1956); hence the black and white production. Everything about this production is an A+. This song was voted one of the 500 most influential songs in the history of rock and roll, and it has been covered more than 200 time (can't find one by Frank Sinatra), the most well-known being Nina Simone's. A bit of history behind the song: Jay was trained as an opera singer, and wrote this song to be sung as a ballad. The producer/director brought in fried chicken, beer, and bourdon, and the entire band got mashed. So they recorded this wild version of Jay's song, and it became the iconic rock and roll song Angelina is paying tribute to. Whenever a new reactor discovers Angelina, most of her fans point him/her to this performance. There just aren't enough words to describe how Wonderful this performance is. Like you, Angelina is a fan of Frank Sinatra. Shortly after winning Norway's Got Talent at the age of 8, she traveled to America to appear on The View TV show. There she performed one of Frank's trademark songs, "Fly Me to the Moon". Here's the link: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/pKh3gLRqsN6dmX0.html In several different performances of this song, she has >50M views on YT. I promise you will be amazed. I loved your reaction to the Fabulous Angelina, and look forward to many more. 😊💕💕 P.

From Iowa, USA; OK, WOW ❗🤗🌹 1. An important thing to remember about AJ is that she refused to sign for a record deal through AGT and they relented and invited her to sing anyway. 2. AJ is currently signed with Republic Records. 3. She began singing at 18 months and due to her grandmothers influence, she was drawn to and fell in love with jazz and blues music. 4. She has been arranging most, if not all of her music performances since she was 8 years old. Hopefully this will remain as she continues her career with Republic. 5. Currently in 2022 she still performs barefoot and I hope by now that you have discovered the incredible reason why she does that. 6. AJ sews her own clothes, (the cloth is designed by her grandmother) and she stands 6 feet tall at 15 yeats old! 7. We all hope to enjoy her performances for many years to come. 8.

@alberttenfoot3 жыл бұрын
Thanks for another excellent reaction to my favourite singer on your second exposure to her. IShe will often surprise you with her choice of song and her interpretation but you will never be disappointed. Angelina did not base her version based on a performance by Frank Sinatra. Did he release this song? She was only 9 years old when she performed this song. It is her tribute to the person who wrote the original, Screamin' Jay Hawkins, an American singer/songwriter. He wrote and performed it in 1956 and Angelina based her performance on the original, although she did make some subtle alterations to both lyrics and melody. As you continue your journey of discovering Angelina - and I sincerely hope you do - you will come to realise that she does her own arrangements of most of the cover songs she sings. The differences may not be immediately discernible on first listening to them, but they are there. There may be a subtle change in tempo or tone, or more inflexion in some words, or a phrase may differ in pitch from the original. The amount of control that Angelina has over her voice cannot be measured. She never hurries a song. She sings in such a way that the emotions in the lyrics are felt by the listener. In this video did you notice:Angelina finishing some notes and handing them to the pianist, who smiled as he read them? They were her wishes (instructions) to the band how she wished therm to play the music. Then a brief glimpse of Mery Zamani, a well known and respected Iranian artist, who is also Angelina's maternal grandmother and the person who encouraged Angelina in her love of music, especially jazz.And then there is a shot of Angelina holding a candle upon which was an image of Screamin' Jay Hawkins. Lastly, did you notice how the "performing" Angelina, singing at a level of maturity far beyond her years, suddenly became a 9-year-old child almost instantaneously once she finished singing. From the time I first heard Angelina, way back at her first audition on Norway's Got Talent, she has amazed me.

Angelina Jordan and Lucy Thomas are the best young singers in the world. Each has his personality. But both will be superstars.

She's a prodigy and a genius. Check her cover of Bohemian Rhapsody or The Show Must Go On. How about her covers of Adele's When We Were Young or Lana del Rey's Born to Die. Chris Isaak's Wicked Game or Rihanna's Stay. Everyone of them equals or surpasses the original. She does all of her own arrangements too. And she's kind and humble. What more can I say?

Another spell was cast by 9 yo Angelina. Let’s analyze the video: 1st you see how small and cute she is. 2nd you see she is barefoot (story below) 3rd You see her making her “list of suggested changes” to the song. 4th the band leader taking note of the changes. 5th Angelina is holding a candle with “Screemin’ Jay Hawkin’s (original artist 1956) picture on it. 6th the old soul in her voice. She is the youngest published author in Norway. Angelina wrote and her Grandmother illustrated a book about why she sings barefoot. She was on a trip to Iran where her grandmother is from and met a street girl weighing people for money. Angelina sat and talk with the girl. Angelina asked the girl what she wanted to be when she grew up and the girl replied, a Doctor but that it could never happen. Angelina told her to never give up hope. The girl complimented Angelina on her shoes and Angelina noticed her scarred bare feet so she gave them to her, and the little girl told Angelina she would pray for her every day. Angelina sings barefoot to this day to remind the world that there are still children in need. All proceeds go to charity.

Ginger "Who gave that little girl bourbon?". That look of disbelief then astonishment on your face was brilliant! :) She's still only 14yo (15yo in one month 10th Jan) and already she's a superstar. Republic Records have got a tiger by the tail with AJ. She's already a level above most singers, just what is she going to show us in the coming years? Mike, you had the broadest smile throughout. :) xxx
