Agreed. I like you guys. I think you clearly acknowledged and appreciated what little Angelina was doing in these auditions. Some of her supporters can be a bit overprotective when they feel she is being criticized, so you got a little bit beat up in the comments. Don't take it personally. I have an old pair of earbuds and can see what you mean about the sound being a bit "reverby" on I'm a fool to want you. That goes away if I listen through my regular laptop speakers. Maybe give it another listen (this time from the full video with subtitles and judge comments). Perhaps I can shed a little light on your second comment/query about the "in and out" sound on Bang Bang as well. The guitar was using an effect called tremolo. It does exactly what you describe. It electronically raises and lowers the volume of the sound at a rate that the guitarist can adjust. It sounds like, to your ears anyway, the guitar part was a little bit high in the mix. This is also less apparent listening though plain old laptop speakers- i.e. the guitar part is not as loud relative to her voice. This effect has been around for quite a while and is used in a bunch of music to great effect. Check it out here in Otis Redding's A Change is Gonna Come kzread.info/dash/bejne/q62crpKin7a6j7g.html Looking forward to your next AJ reaction!

Everyone that watched these performances has said, “I wasn’t doing anything this amazing when I was seven years old.”

WOW, I have to sleep on this before I can comment now. I'll be polite, maybe Angelina will see my comment. 😎😏🤣

IT is called tremolo on the guitar of bang bang, as a guitar player it sounded great in this song.

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 KZread 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. " ♥👣👸🏻🎷

You wish you could have watched these performances on TV? You just watched both Bang Band, and Summertime on a TV show, and the sound and picture were top notch. Do you have an implant to improve your hearing? If so, you need it to be adjusted because the lady next to you loved the sound, and she stated that. If you are having a hearing issue you are missing out on the genius of AJ. I am 76, and I wear hearing aids, but I take them off and use Sony hi end headphones when I listen to music. No one on earth sounds better than Angelina Jordan compared to all the others I have experienced in my lifetime. I wish you the best!

There is one other song that all singing contestants had to sing a capella. She was spot on.

Boy you were really off on the second song ! That was a vocal masterpiece ,! Acapella , just her pure voice , no added background music , 7 years old, your competition standing behind you with the judges in front and to sing with perfect pitch is unbelievable ! Every vocal coach and vocal expert who reacted to this performance was blowiin away and said they have never heard such clarity and vocal dynamics from a girl this age ! It was outstanding ! But I understand it's all personal and subjective when listening to a reaction ! I doubt many professional singers could deliver this as well ! Vocal genius is in Angelina's DNA ! These performances by AJ took on a whole new dimension to young singers when Angelina sang classic iconic songs from the 50's and 60's ! Something I doubt will happen again ! She delivered flawless performances on all the songs ! The most important and heartwarming thing was that Angelina donated the winnings to children's charities ! That's who she is a sincere, compassionate and loving beautiful soul and the word LOVE is what she brings to her audiences when she sings ! Thank you both for being great supporters of Angelina and I hope you continue your journey it is so much appreciated ! 👍👍🇨🇦🇨🇦❤️❤️

It wasn't disappointing to the other contestants. Sad, for a moment, yes, but they came to understand they just listened to the birth of greatness. You spoke of not being a musical coach. Musical coaches have no explanation of what they just listened to just like you.

If a singer had a microphone like that - on the 2 song, you would probably hear more faults and sound, than on this girl. In the 2 song it was a cappella and I think the microphone was like that, so they could hear all and they were not able to hide anything. She got 46% of the votes!

If you think the other participants felt discouraged because the crowd was cheering for Angelina imagine how the participants from AGT The Champions felt when one of the judges said she was voting for her LOL!! the only reason why she didn't win AGT was because the votes came from random people around the US and not the judges.

What you haven't seen is the interview with her mother after the win. She is not a stage mother. You can almost see the cogs whirling. She is obviously thinking that she was going to have to recalibrate everything. They donate alot of the winnings to children's charities. They focused on giving Angelina as normal childhood as possible. Only allowing performances in school holidays to satisfy Angelina who has always been the driving force and ambition and her parents applying just enough brakes. Her grandma was a child prodigy poet and painter. I think that gave the family insight how to Foster and guard Talent. They turned down Disney. Selecting a careful selective approach whilst fulfilling their contractual obligations to the show. I think when her mother watches the monitor on her audition that look is the realisation that nothing is ever going to be the same...and I do not think that thought was welcome given her guarded post win interview.

Hearing every little sound and she still sounds phenomenal! That a capella performance was perfect!

If you listen to the Billie Holiday original, you will see Angelina is true to the cover. If Taylor like Queen, she must watch Angelina's cover of Queen's, 'The Show Must Go On". Freddie was hiding he recent terminal diagnosis so Angelina wears a mask at the beginning to recognize that. She absolutely goes toe to toe with Freddie.

Definitely watch her live performance, What a difference a day makes, she is so amazing there

Yes, according to many professional reactors they state that AJ has a natural vibrato; they also add that even adult singers can't execute a vibrato as seamlessly as AJ or even at all! NGT was the start where a star was born and her wish to become a superstar many be soon on the horizon! Following AJ victory on NGT her performances become viral garnering millions upon millions of views on KZread.

You will always hear the noises because she basically sings without auto-tune because we think that's nice because it's her raw voice that doesn't need anything like auto-tune

I highly highly recommend her cover of Adele’s A Million Years Ago. She has the ability to make you feel the lyrics, so intensely it often brings me to tears. This one especially.

It isn't just her vibrato...who else has the power to give you goosebumps and chills, or leave you feeling the emotions like she does?

The fact is that she won with 46% of the votes in the finals out of 10 artists, yeah, they knew they were competing for second!

Angelina fully embodies each song she sings. She understands the emotion of the story and evokes those emotions beautifully. I used to think soul singers touched your soul with their voice. Angelina's voice hugs my soul, while I am taken on a journey through the song. What a great honor for the other contestants, to be able to say they lost to Angelina Jordan. Please encourage viewers to use the link in your description to watch, like and comment on the original video. Be proud to boost the analytics for the artist. Angelina would want you to do the same for each artist you feature.

I think you guys made a good call to do all 4 NGT performances together. Here you see her singing debut to the public at 7 years old, with baby teeth missing and adult teeth just coming in. In spite of her inexperience, youth, and dental situation, she takes 4 jazz songs and simply wows the judges and the audience. Yeah, she's cute but thats not what earned her the win here. We get to see what a 1 in a billion, natural born talent sounds like just as she is getting control of her instrument. It is the tone, the texture, yes the vibrato as you mention, but also her sense of timing and phrasing. Extraordinary when you consider that she is 7 at the beginning, turning 8 by the last performance; a first grader...

Angelina has one of the best vibratos of the moment and together with her raspy, hoarse, sandy voice it is a formidable mix, how she drags her words and a thousand other things. she is magical, thanks guys sdos Argentina 🇦🇷.

audiophiles from the days of vinyl even loved the clicks and pops the needle picked up on old records, the Hi-Fidelity hid nothing.... you could hear e-v-e-r-y-t-h-i-n-g. When Angelina sang, I'm A Fool To Want You, a cappella the whole audience was silent....all anyone wanted to hear was how perfect this child was singing...including the human sounds of breathing and such. The absolute unguarded intimacy was something we have seldom heard before.

As Angelina continues to sing through the years, she purchases (family birthday gift) a very sensitive mic at age 12. I believe this is because she is disappointed with recording devices that lose the fine details she applies to her singing (vocal fry, rasp, whisper, vibrato, etc). In later tears, the professional recordings all leave in her breathing (when post production often removes it for other singers to create a cleaner sound) and she seems to make the sound of her inhaling a part of the composition, maybe even inhaling on specific pitch.

"I feel so bad for all these people who had to compete against her." No joke, right! Also, Taylor, I *loved* your reaction to Angelina's first note in her "Summertime" performance. I felt the exact same way; it was the first word I ever heard her sing. 🍻 I hope you come back to Angelina in spite of some of the negative comments.

I'm a New subscriber (For Angelina Jordan!) and I'm very glad you are continuing to look into more of her catalog! Yes, Vibrato is the term for the wavering notes. It is a technique which is rare in pop music but practically required for Jazz! As for the perceived failures in recording quality, I wish you had more clearly differentiated those Technical/Mechanical quibbles from the Quality of Angelina's Vocal . Angelina Had no control over the recording technicalities, only over her Vocal Performance, Also as you dig deeper you will find many "Home-made" recordings which may not live up to a demand for "Studio Quality", but capture a practice session or a Karaoke tryout of a song recorded on the cheap for her fans on KZread. These allowed her to meet and satisfy her fans without "selling her soul" to the Big Record Companies . So, in almost all cases, there is No "pitch correction" and no "Autotune"...just the Honesty of her Natural Vocals! That is very rare and under appreciated!

Thank you for your time reacting to Angelina. It's always best to watch each performance individually and with English sub titles if available. The 1st was her audition at age 7 "Gloomy Sunday". 2nd one was the Judges cut, were the judges can't say anything but write notes for later. Plus Angie did something very difficult to do and that was a capella & it will expose a singers imperfections right away & she had none. She was pitch perfect, her timing was spot on, her vibrato was beyond amazing and unique to her etc etc and all as a 7-8 yr old. 3rd one she was 8 now "Bang Bang" semi finals, was originally by Sonny and Cher but made famous by Nancy Sinatra, also the theme to Kill Bill. 4th the finals was George Gershwin's "Summertime". Which Angelina has done several times and all different like all she sings. These performances garnered attention from the biggest names in the business. She won by 46% of the votes. She is also at this time the youngest to win a got Talent show. React to her cover Diane Washington's song "What a difference a day makes" at 8 in outside concert. This blew even David Foster away when he heard it. ❤ God bless you 🙏. ❤🙂👍

When you consider that she is 7-8 during these performances they don't seem possible.

I can’t believe nobody has told you about her bare feet. She was doing a show when she was young, ( her words ) and she saw a kid with no shoes and asked her why, the child replied she couldn’t afford any. AJ took of her shoes and gave them to her, then said she would not ware shoes while performing again, until every kid had shoes. And so she hasn’t.

Unfortunately, someone is still recommending this 4-in-1 compilation that edited out part of the second song. Treat yourself to the full recording here: 7/8 years old NGT cut-off round, a cappella ‘I’m A Fool To Want You’: kzread.info/dash/bejne/foyf0K6TdNK4hrQ.html

Vibrato and anything and everything she can do and does just as she wants at the service of the song. Naturally and effortlessly.

It's amazing to see how much she grew as a singer over just three episodes.

She put a spell on us for sure 🤩😍🥰

1st song is Billie Holiday, 2nd song Billie Holiday, 3rd song Nancy Sinatra, 4th song Ella Fitzgerald. All note for note. The guitar tone was Tremolo, the wavering of her voice is called vibrato. Great job guys.

Glad to have you back after your surgery. Angelina turned 8 during the filming of this show. I like this compilation because it dramatizes the incredible growth she experienced as an artist within a single year. It's breathtaking. When singing I'm A Fool To Want You, Angelina makes use of the proximity effect that deepens and enhances lower frequencies the closer one gets to the mic. You may not be aware of this technique because it's seldom used in video commentary or broadcasting. Breathing and other mouth sounds are also more audible, too. They can be just as much a part of a vocal performance as sung notes; think Michael Jackson's sharp inhalations. Perhaps they're not to your taste. The effect on the guitar in Bang Bang is called tremolo, where the volume of the note varies rhythmically. It was a staple of '60s surf music, but became associated with the American West through Ennio Morricone's stylish soundtrack to the Clint Eastwood film The Good, The Bad, And The Ugly. Angelina's guitarist is using it here to evoke the mythic Western gunfight scene. It's a stunning arrangement that, once again, simply may not be to your taste, although the judges and the entire Norwegian audience felt differently. The vocal effect you mentioned, where Angelina varies the pitch of a note in a rapid, rhythmic, and controlled manner, is called vibrato. Angelina's ability to use it at will is insane for her age. Many adult singers never learn to use it. When singing Summertime, Angelina is deliberately using a more pronounced vibrato, which is a recognized vocal effect heard in many styles. Bruce Dickinson from Iron Maiden has a very wide vibrato sound. You also hear that kind of vibrato in classical settings. To hear an 8-year-old intentionally use it is pretty special.

Hi, Your right, the term is vibrato. She has a breathy, raspy voice with vocal fry in which is creaky sound jazz singers use.

On the other hand, your critique of her second performance and of the guitar issue in her third performance were baffling. I have been a fan for 5 years and have been following her. I have listened to literally hundreds of reactions to these performances. Yours is the only channel of all of these hundreds that has ever made comments about technical issues. Almost everyone uses headphones. It tells me that there is not an issue with the performances but perhaps something with your equipment. Perhaps your headphones or amplifiers etc are overly sensitive. I don't doubt that you heard things, but the fact that they were significant for you is just not something that has ever come up before. If this were a true problem in listening, I would have heard it many dozens of times before and that is not the case. As far as more information and subtitles, if you would listen to each individual video separately you would hear the judges comments and you would have subtitles. It is only the compilation that eliminates these things.

Yup vibrato 😊 Do note, your critique. She identified a few years back a musical interest in a type of music, I forget the name, but it's definition is 'imperfect music'. It even talks about breathing, breath control. You'll find as a normal modern human we aren't used to jazz, playing with the timing of songs, falling behind, catching up. Breath is often edited out. You'll see she not only leaves her breathing in 90% of the time, but often uses it as part of the song even. Like her sharp and timed breaths in her newest 'I have nothing" cover of Whitney Houston. So for me and you guys maybe, she takes a bit of getting used too, but man is she phenomenal and intuitive.

Sinatra's is from way back in the mid-sixties but many will recognise it in more recent times from the soundtrack of Kill Bill. The original, sung by Cher (Sonny & Cher) was much more up-tempo and didn't therefore feature the prominent guitar motif.

vibrato is indeed the word.

I have a monitor we watch it that way too. It’s just a saying the spring we were the spring Weaver sounded great her by liked it but maybe it’s a personal thing he didn’t like it. It’s mine which is a personal thing. I loved it I was there with my wife with her in person.

And she won 😂

It must of hurt that little bit extra for 2nd place when Angelina gave most of the money to charity. Heheh

Ear buds have a more tinny sound as compared to headphones or even free standing quality speakers. Push into an ear with no room for free air movement is not a natural sound

Well, 3 out of 4 are a win, I guess. Now that you've seen them, check out some voice coach/instructor channels to hear what they're hearing. - And - score one for the Mrs.! It's vibrato hat you're hearing. It's a skill that's difficult to achieve, even after many years of singing. Additionally, Angelina's style of vibrato is even more difficult to master than the other. I encourage checking out those voice coaches to dive at to a deeper level on what she's achieving.

Yes, that's her mother

Since you are new to doing reactions to Angelina, please be aware that we "Angels" (Angelina dedicated fans) are very protective of her and if we do not agree with your reaction, you will know about it in the comments. We do look forward to you doing many, many more reactions, as she has over 200 covers and original songs. Thanks.

Trust me we're aware lol Sorry for the late response, we went on vacation during the time of this video releasing so we have a pretty overwhelming backlog. We removed tons of egregious comments from dedicated fans on this video. Most KZreadrs curate there comment sections and we're no different. I say this all the time but music is subjective and no one will love the same things but we have to be careful not to discourage people from listening because at the end of the day it only hurts the artist.

Angelina will be performing in Concert at the Music Hall in Portsmouth New Hampshire on Sept 22nd, 2023 - there are still some tickets available. Buy directly from the Music Hall - avoid third-party ticket sellers if possible. 😊😊👍👍

If you would have listened to the song Bang Bang by Nancy Sinatra you would realize that the guitar accompaniment was exactly the same as Angelina's version. That being said, Your appreciation for Angelina as an artist is evident.

Love the reactions to AJ hopefully you continue and if you do it would be cool to go youngest to oldest videos as you can see the progression

Thank you so much!

How is your Norwegian, by the way? Odd that you never mention that this little girl is singing in a language which is not her mother tongue!

I have listened to this whole set of songs at least 30 times and I have never heard anything like you heard. Also checked with a lot of other Angels and no one has experienced what you have. Maybe there is a problem on your side.

Great reaction and your witnessing an Artist not afraid to show her vulnerabilities and share her Pure Love one song at a time, God Bless!

That's such a great comment, Mark. Thanks.

Dude, there is no issue with the audio, turn down the input to your earbuds.

why did I try to watch iam tongi audition to American idol..

It's too bad you didn't see the version of the first song with English subtitles and the judges' comments. I guess that one is only available a a single video. It also helps to know the vocal peculiarities of Billie Holliday, which were evident in the first 2 songs.

I hope you go back and listen to the rest of the performance, there is more .

Nice job and enjoyed this. Maybe I missed it but have not seen anything from you guys in a long time with Angelina. So many recent originals by her and not a peep yet, hope all is OK thanks S&T

Of the four songs she does in the competition, two are Billie Holiday's. How important was Billie to Angelina? Well listen to what she said when she was interviewed bu Nadia Neophytou for 'American Songwriters'. I have to say if it wasn't for the unconditional love that came from Billie's legendary music, THERE WOULD NOT BE ANGELINA JORDAN TODAY'. She then added, 'I am very blessed that her music found me very early'. Billie was the most improvisational singer of all time and redefined the 'Jazz/Blues' genre with facets of singing no one else ever did. The unique nuance, inflections, and breathy releases were just a part of what you will find when you listen to Billie's catalog of music like Angelina did. Billie was a self taught singer, who had no mentors, and upon reaching the night clubs of Harlem she distinguished herself as 'The Queen Of Jazz'. Angelina has heard all the great singers of all time but places Billie 'alone' at the top of the musical pedestal.

At least I was given to understand that was the rules???

The guitar effect is actually going on and off over again. That's the effect. just saying.

what the hell i thought you were really digging the first song... wow... lol i've never heard anyone say anything but good about that one before.
