Asassan --> Assassin Otherwise, great comment.

Some people say Angelina has an old soul. I don't know about that but, she is one of a kind and seems to have been born with whatever IT is.

Angelina Jordan was 9 years old when this video was made, but the video was not released till the following year. NOTICE, Angelina making notes and the music director reading the notes. the song is very close to the original, but she always puts her own twist on everything she sings. She is now 17 Years old and has been signed to republic records since she was 14.( Angelina and her family made the decision for her to not pursue music full time until she had completed high school ) has just released her first full Album with all original songs. her first song off the album is called "Love Dont Let Me Go" which she co wrote. Angelina rose to fame at age 7 when she auditioned for the Norways Got Talent show in 2013 for the 2014 tv edition. by the time the show was on tv she had turned 8. Angelina went on to WIN the show with a 45% of all the votes, of the top 10 finalists. in the fall of 2019, the show AMERICAS GOT TALEN THE CHAMPIONS started auditions for the 2020 season. Angelina was 13 years old and performed her version of the Queen song Bohemian Rhapsody. she was so good and so original she received the golden buzzer. Simon and the shows producers wanted to sign her to a contract. they wanted to chose the songs she would sing and how she would sing them, but Angelina and her family said no. because Angelina refused to sign a contract with the show they didnt allow her to win. she finished 6th. i quit watching the show after that. but from age 7 and up till now at age 17, you will not find a more original voice. yes she sounds like so many different people but thats what is so good about her. a couple of her original songs, one she was 12, song called "Shield",( live version ) she is co writer , is amazing .. she released an E P at age 14 with some original songs also. one is called "7th Heaven" and another one called "Million Miles" (live in studio) black and white version, is about the death of her grandfather. this song is so beautiful and the way she sings it is heartbreaking.. her video of "My Funny Valentine" released Valentines Day of 2022 is cute, but the way she sings the song is so beautiful. she released a video of her doing a Michael Jackson song "Billie Jean" at age 15 and the video is a bit odd but her version of the song is just so cool. also at age 15, she released her cover version of Adeles song "Easy On Me". Angelinas version of the song is even better than the original. she also released her video just a very few days after Adele released the song. at 16 she released a video of an Elvis song "Suspicious Minds", again its so original. that is just a few of the many many MANY songs she has done. JUST for your information, Angelina and her family were n a vacation in the middle east and were walking down the street looking around. they came upon a girl who was about Angelinas age at that time, 6, and the young girl was trying to raise money to help feed her family by weighing people. Angelina went over to this young girl and they sat down on the sidewalk and chatted. the little girl did not have any shoes on and it was cold outside. she told Angelina how pretty her shoes were and she wished she had some shoes like hers. they talked more but Angelina took her shoes off and gave them to the young girl. Angelina told her family that she would never wear shoes again while performing as long as there are children in the world who dont have shoes to wear. THAT is why you will see in the videos when she is singing she is not wearing shoes. over the years since then Angelina has done many performances for charity and has helped raise millions of dollars for many different charities. there is just sooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much more to know about Angelina. her fans are called Angelinas Angels..................

Angelina is the barefooted Queen of Soul with a Thousand Voices! She weaves musical tapestries in all colors of the rainbow with her beguiling voice! Her musical artistry is second to none and it not something that can be taught. Soul + Music in perfect harmony!

I listened to more than 200 covers of this song and in my opinion no one comes close to capturing the spirit of Screamin’ Jay Hawkins song. Many people are not aware that Mr. Hawkins was a trained Opera singer, pianist, actor, and a boxing Champ. He joined the army at age 13 using forged birth certificate. He was a formidable boxer in the US Army and Air Force. He won several boxing awards mostly in his hometown of Cleveland and in 1949 he won The Middleweight Boxing Championship in Alaska. Here is 9 years old Angelina Jordan in this performance delivering a TKO to Screamin’ Jay Hawkins Thank you for this reaction and for your analysis.

As you said at the beginning, it's always hit or miss with a child singer. I think you will find that it is _always_ hit for this one. You can already tell from just one that this girl is the real deal. ...and she has so much more incredible work for you to check out. She never misses. ...and because you asked for her story, here is a little bio so that you can learn a little more about her background and her kind and caring soul....... *Angelina Jordan* - Angelina Jordan was born Jan 10 2006 in Oslo, Norway. She is currently 16 - She began singing at the age of one and a half - At 2 or 3 she discovered Jazz through her grandmother and started studying all the greats from Jazz history with youtube videos. - *Why Angelina always sings barefoot* - When Angelina was 6 years old, she was traveling with her grandmother and met a poor girl with no shoes trying to make money on the streets. They talked for a while and discussed their dreams. It was cold and the girl had scars on her feet. Seeing this, Angelina took off her shoes and gave them to the girl. The girl thanked her and told Angelina she would pray for her every day. That day Angelina made a vow to always sing barefoot until all the children of the world could have shoes. To this day, whenever Angelina is performing in public, she sings barefoot as a way to remember that little girl and to remind us that there are less fortunate people in the world that could use our help. Angelina holds so true to this promise that she has sung outdoors in Norway, in december... barefoot. She has sung at a dinner with ex-pres Obama... barefoot. She went on AGT (possibly the biggest stage in the world)...bare foot. She made a promise at 6 years old, and has stuck strong to it for years. That takes a special kind of person. - 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 whole show at just 8 years old. - In an interview after the show, when asked what she was going to do with the prize money, the 8 year old replied, "I would like to give it to orphans that need clothes and shoes" - When Angelina was 9 years old she became the youngest published author in Norway, when she wrote a book about the story of why she doesn't wear shoes when she sings. She donated proceeds from the sales of the book to help children in need. - The reason you may not have heard of her is because her parents are very protective of her childhood. After she won NGT, they did not want her to be thrust into stardom before she had a chance to grow up as a normal child, and get her education. They allowed 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 came in. Over the years since NGT, they have turned down offers from many major record labels and even disney. - Angelina has covered more than 160 songs and over 70 artists. She always selects the songs herself... everything ranging from old classic jazz 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, Lana del Rey, and Adele like nobody else) - Angelina has collaborated with some very big names over the last few years... Quincy Jones, Mark Ronson, David Foster, Alan Walker and many more. All of which heard her and were blown away by her talent. - Angelina has written five of her own original songs: "What is Life", "Shield", "Oslo", "Million Miles", and "7th Heaven" (all are amazing...all can be found on youtube) 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 beautiful world in my head", and you can always hear the results of that. When Angelina sings it is pure soul, pure emotion, pure music. - Updates: On Aug 26, 2020 Angelina's Manager/Uncle announced in an interview that they have decided on Republic Records as the best fit for Angelina and she is now signed with them as their "highest priority new artist". On Nov 6 2020 she released her first single under Republic... "Million Miles"! On March 19 2021 Angelina released her latest single "7th Heaven" In Dec 2021 her cover of "Mercy" was in the opening credits for the movie "The Hating Game" She has done so much already, but at 16 she is just getting started!!!

Angelina Jordan is a music prodigy she started singing at age of 1.5 years and more than that she started with Billy Holiday Jazz. Angelina sings in 3 languages, designs her own clothes, and has written a very popular book called "Mellom to hjerter" (Between Two Hearts)"Norway's youngest published author" a story about why she wears no shoes during her performances, and like her name she truly is an angel with a heart of gold. Angelina won Norway's got talent when her audition for Billy Hollowday's Gloomy Sunday went viral and she got world press she started the competition at 7 years old and won at 8 years old. In her younger years before age 13, she was watched over by her mother (Sara) and her Uncle, a manager, who just wanted her to grow up normal. Her mother and uncle Turned down almost 90% of all requests for her to perform but even so from age 8years to 12 years old or so, she has been all over the world (Mother and or her Grandmother never more than a breath away) Angelina has donated millions to environmental causes and children's causes around the world. Angelina has produced over 160 covers, and 6 originals and she makes all of them her own, all of which will astound you. New people to Angelina get sucked down this"rabbit hole" not believing what they're hearing her excellent vocals and unique way of singing, Angelina is a master at music structure her ability to show absolute recognition to a cover while she makes it her own is just unbelievable. Angelina writes her own music and produces it Shield, Million Miles, 7th Heaven, and what is Life to name a few. Angelina's mother is Norwegian, and her father is from Sweeden. The " world-known artist'" grandmother (Mery Zamani) on her mother's side is from Iran, and her grandfather (recently deceased) is from Japan both grandparents are very involved with Angelina's growing up, and Angelina's song a million miles is about losing her grandfather and her original cut Shield is about the people that protected her and watched over her during her performances and travels. Although Angelina didn't win AGT champions 2020 she was signed to Republic record label and is producing new music 7th Heaven, Million Miles, and Save the world she's on her way, after school, to a world market that I'm sure she'll dominate.

Our Barefoot Princess of Jazz!

here's another mind- boggling fact: SHE did the arrangement .. for the band and for herself. Going back to see Screaming Jay doing this song is interesting .. she really liked him.

Angelina arranges her music since a very young age and began singing at 18 months.

Fantastic reaction to the best Singer on the Planet, get ready for the ride of a life time, God Bless!

@8:50, One, she is a very old soul and I believe a reincarnation of an AMAZING MUSICIAN of that erEra! Second, I put it here bc you'll see she's often referred as the barefoot princess, and just in case, no, she never performs with shoes on anymore! ❤ Bc, when she was 4yrs old going to a performance, she came across a very poor family and she saw a little girl about her age without shoes on Angelina went and asked her why she didn't have any shoes on in the cold winter weather, and the little girl replied because I don't have any, Angelina gave her hers and has since never worn them to remind her of the less fortunate especially children ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Mate fellow Aussie here, your analysis of Angelina's performance is on the money👍 Angelina is now 16 and is the real deal, I consider her to be currently amongst the worlds top singers regardless of age, has been signed to Republic records with her debut original album being released soon Anything Angelina sings she makes her own, regularly surpassing the original artist in emotion and musicality. Looking forward to more Angelina song breakdowns, Love this girl, bringing the truth back to music🥰

funny thing is the band called her "the boss" its her arranagement her music her style.

Best singer on the planet

9 years old here.Singing since 6/7,won Norways got talent at 7/8 .Angelina is now 16 and there is over 150 clips out there for you to check out. Its worth your time. She is just about to release an album.

You’re going to be inundated with comments because there is so much to say about Angelina. She is known as the girl with a thousand voices-you heard one of them today. What you got so right is her authenticity. She sings in many genres and just kills everything. Jazz and blues are her anchor, and that influence seeps into many genres she covers. I’m in my seventies and have followed music all my life. Angelina is easily the best singer I’ve ever heard-period, no qualification needed. I think a great second selection for you would be Bohemian Rhapsody because you’ll see her older (but still only 13) and in a completely different style. Also, that performance (her own arrangement, as with all her songs) displays something else you picked up-Angelina is extremely humble, but absolutely confident in her vocal ability and her inherent musicality. As you noted, there is no self-conscious questioning of whether her stunning arrangements are too different. She sings from her heart. Angelina, with minimal accompaniment, is absolutely mesmerizing. She’s got you from the first line. You just need to start watching: any age, any genre, any song.

You don’t realize it but you get Angelina!!!👍🏼🤗💗

You have already made it clear that this performance has amazed you, but I assure you that that amazement has only just begun. I'm not going to repeat things that others have already sent you in their comments, only that in the opinion of many critics, analysts and vocal coaches, we are facing the future queen of music. There is a detail that can give you an idea of ​​the impact that she will cause in the music industry, when she did a melodic version of 'Bohemian Rhapsody' on AGT, the members of Queen were so amazed that they gave her the record rights to her version.

You just stumbled upon what is arguably the greatest musical genius of this century. She is the one who arranged the song on her strings and gives the final instructions when she passes the piece of paper to the director. She finally takes her chin in her hand thoughtfully. She does not await the judgment of others, it is she who is judging her proof of her. I envy you because you have 150 covers + 5 originals + 2 songs written for her to savor. Some covers despite the age you will find to be better than the originals.

Obsessed w the voice and confidence of her

To coin a phrase this ain't her first rodeo at 9 years of age she's already a seasoned pro. If you go down this rabbit hole with her you will see just how REALLY GOOD she is !!!!!!

Reactions to this wonder never gets old. Already her audition to Norway Got Talent at 7 years old with a Billie Holiday song, proved what a rare prodigy she is. When it comes to jazz, she is the teacher and conductor.

Angelina is a child prodigy from Oslo. She performs barefoot to remind her of all the less fortunate children in the world. Won Norway's Got Talent at age 7/8. Youngest published author of Norway at age 9. Angelina has helped raise millions for charities. Angelina has over 160 covers and 5 originals. Signed with Republic Records in 2020. Family is very protective and has tried to let Angelina live a normal childhood, as much as possible. 9yrs 2months in this performance. Angelina turned 16 January.

Those were changes to the arrangemnt of the song. Those men in the studio call her the boss. She is legit She is well protected She will be Queen of the Industry whenever she chooses to let her label promoted her.

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 KZread. 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.

She’s 17 years old republic records when she was 14 and still singing she’s been singing over the world. She got a new album out called love don’t let me go. She released a Kurt single off of the album blowing up all over the world. she’s on her way to becoming a superstar, she got her will star on the Hollywood walk of fame on the way to becoming a new national superstar

She has worked with professional musicians since she was 7 years old I guess, and also has performed publicly since 7 years old.. She sang in Nobel prize gala with 100% confidence like a pro, waving and smiling to the audience between her phrases... I mean, she is not any usual child singer..

She was 9 when she did this. If you read about her history. You will understand about how special she is!

IT IS absolutely crazy that you never came across her... She is the 3rd AMAZING music-genius, ( Dimash, Diana Ankudinova and Angelina ). And yes All 3 of them channels 100% guaranteed.🙏and they are all so Benelovent and Wise above age... And all 3 of them just authentic and i believe are not effected by opinions. Thank heavens.❤️🙏 You gotta do Yellow brick road. Its tearjerking for me. Thanks a million. Much love.

Just an idle thought Angelina seems like a pure breed racehorse starting out of the gates with a voice of magic and the determination to overtake every vocalist now or in the past to be able to sing to the world, I want my daughters to be like Angelina maybe not the voice but the pure good human nature of this Angel.

Well, welcome to Angelina's army of Angels the girl is by far the very best of all :)

Absolutely nothing is a miss with this outstanding beautiful human being, the best ever either male or female in my 70 years experience

She sings on the View, fly me to the moon,, watch the Whole interview,

Angelina is unique. She is like no other singer I know. Give up all expectations, because whatever you expect you will likely be amazed, enthralled and looking for more. Enjoy.

You pretty much have to stop thinking of her as a 'child singer' once you've seen this. There is no one like Angelina 😎

This is one of the best first-time reactions to Angelina that I've seen, and I've been watching them for two and a half years now. Others will fill you in on the magic that is Angelina Jordan, so I will just say that I hope you continue to react to her. If you do I can promise the ride will be amazing.

She was only 9 years old when she performed this song. It is her tribute to 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, 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 on 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. In the band, she was called a boss.

Angelina was 9 years and 2 months old when she performed this song. It is her tribute to Screamin' Jay Hawkins, who wrote and performed the song in 1956. She based her arrangement on his original performance, although she discarded all the theatrics and allowed her voice and body language to tell the story. The song has been covered by many singers over the years, but to my knowledge, Angelina is the only one who has sung in the same style as the original. Things I found particularly worthy of note in this video are (a) Angelina finishing writing last minute changes she wanted and handing them to the Music Director, who smiled. (b) A brief glimpse of Mery Zamani, Angelina's maternal grandmother, a well known and respected Iranian Artist and poet who was also a child prodigy. She was the person who recognised Angelina's talent at an early age and exposed her to all the old time jazz singers. (c) The candle with an image of Screamin' Jay Hawkins on it. (d) The smile on the face of the Bass player. (e) How she rose on to her toes on the last occasion she sang "...because you're mine" (f) The fact she occasionally refers to her written notes on the music stand (g) The instant transformation from "performance" mode to that of a pensive child, possibly wondering whether she could have done better. I comment on the "pensive" child because Angelina has an incredible work ethic and seeks to perform every song in a way she considers will bring out all the emotions within the lyrics and melody. Angelina has been referred to as the "Queen of Jazz", "The Barefoot Princess", "The girl with a thousand voices". All of them are true, but I prefer the nickname I gave her after listening to about six of her performances. For me, she is "The Chameleon of Song", for as a chameleon is able to change its colour to match its surroundings, so Angelina is able to change the "colour" of her voice to accurately match the needs of the song to reveal the emotions within the lyrics and melody. Even more remarkable is her innate ability to communicate those same emotions to her listeners.

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 KZread. 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 considered a prodigy as an artist and poet while growing up in Iran. Angelina speaks Norwegian, Farsi, English, Japanese and Swedish. 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. Angelina plays the piano and guitar and also paints. 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. 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. Angelina had become a star in her native Norway and her videos on KZread 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. A 9 years old, 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 KZread 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. On June 27, 2018, at age 12, Jordan performed “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 KZread. Angelina has always made changes to each song she covers and often her version is preferred over the original. On KZread, 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. 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 has concerts scheduled in Norway in July 2022. Personally, Angelina as a great human being and her music came into my life when I needed it most. Her music has improved the quality of my life more than I can express. I now introduce her to as many people as I can, with the hope her music will do the same for others. We know once her family believes the time is right and allows Republic Records to fully promote her, she will become the superstar she has always dreamt and believed she would be. I encourage others to use this biography to help educate others about the love, empathy, magic and beauty that is Angelina Jordan Astar and her unique music.

Andy I'm so glad you wrote about the real reason she performs barefoot (as a reminder). But there are a couple of corrections required in your piece: She doesn't have the fluency to be considered a speaker of either Japanese or Swedish.....She DID sign a contract with AGT. This is what Uncle Mike said in an interview with Music Norway: AGT had always been interested in bringing Angelina to the show, but with their normal contract, artists are being locked into a label, management, and other things for many years. Astar says that it didn’t matter if you get exposure or not, it was out of question to give away that right. “Some time passed and they again contacted me, asking if she wanted to sing on their show. I convinced them to give me a contract where Angelina is free from any deal if she performs."....Otherwise, a good job putting together this bio!

@Concerned Citizen Nothing divergent....My quote was from the same Music Norway interview that you are referring to. If you re-read it, you'll see that Angelina asked Uncle Mike to take her to America, but "some time passed and they again contacted me".....On another matter: I'm very curious to know if you could point me to a source or a link to your claim: "if there WERE a 'father' ..... in the house, but, by then, there no longer was.")

Angelina was 9 years old in this performance - Her nationality is Norwegian but is fluent in English even at this age - This song was not arranged for her - she wrote the arrangement based after listening to the original Screamin' Jay Hawkins version - in fact, at the beginning of the video you see Angelina writing down some last-minute changes and it is read by the bandleader. You also notice that her own handwritten notes are on the music stand in front of her as she sings. For more insight on how Angelina works, here is a rehearsal video with the same band at the same age (9 yrs old) - You will see that she is aware of what each musician is doing and gives them some instructions. There are English subtitles as the spoken language is Norwegian: kzread.info/dash/bejne/hXWfvKZ6iK2nZKg.html

You are watching a bona fide musical genius. Angelina breaks all conventional norms and expectations. She is absolutely unique and I have yet to hear any other young singer come close to having Angelina’s lower register. Between youtube and facebook Angelina’s performances have approximately 3.5 billion views. There are also he Tik Toc and Instagram performances to consider.

Angelina is known as the boss when in the studio or rehearsing. She knows what she wants, and how she wants the song to sound, and thats how it will be done. This is the finest musical artist there is in the musical world today. I enjoyed your blown away reaction.

It amazes me that you can describe Angelina so well after seeing only one of her videos, albeit an iconic one. Yes, we are not seeing ego, we are seeing confidence. Many might sing a song with themselves as to center of the performance. With Angelina, the song is the thing. Anything she does in a performance is to bring us into the music. Keep going, you will not regret it. By the way, she is 9 here and 16 now.

Can't wait til you see more of HER I believe you would really enjoy 7th Heaven by Angelina Jordan

Angelina Jordan is the greatest singer in my 65 years, as she is already a mega star. She has many millions of fans, who follow Her. She is a once in a century talent. Enjoy the rabbit hole, and you will enjoy every song she sings

Now this will really blow your mind. She auditioned for Norways Got Talent at 7 She was 8 by the time she won. They thought she was too young at first till she politely corrected her accompaniest. She has always decided how she arranged her music. Her family are artisic but not musicians, but her grandma a famous artist painted whilst listening to jazz as she baby sat. Watch her early covers. An interview with Ivan mendez the young guitarist that looks related but isn't, said the sessions were very organic without much, often no, rehearsal. Some of her best covers you see she is reading the lyrics to the side. She sings every genre but if you liked this check out Man's World age 12. With the fors(I can't spell it orchestra) why it's so spectacular is her timing drfts slightly and she auto corrects in such a spectacular way you see the conductor move his head abruptly back. He then makes the orchestra stand to give her an ovation at the end. Wait for it its a special moment. She is not only singing spectacularly she is extemporising.

Angelina is brilliant. You can not go wrong with an Angelina Jordan song ever.

Angelina is unbelievebel, for me she have the best voice on this planet, i mean she killing every song to her own , she is the boss, also for all bands they play for her. She is now 16years old and absolutly amazing, maybe comes her own cd out this year, and have in her life ca.180covers and many own songs 👑♥️🌹🌟 i like your reaction 🙏

Angelina has proven consistently that she is fearless, and the scary thing is that she is continually improving! She picks the songs she sings, and does the arrangements herself as well. She currently has about 166 or more performances available to watch between KZread, Instagram and Tic Toc. Several of her fans have compiled detailed biographies of Angelina, well worth reading. They will answer nearly all of your questions about her. Hope to see lots more Angelina with you!

Fearless is an appropriate description. To cover many of the greatest singers across all genres is not easy, but Angelina does them justice and, frankly, is better that many of the originals.

Prymal, you ain’t seen nothing yet, welcome into Angelina Jordan magical world of music. Then 9 yo, now 16 and the best vocalist on the planet. For more details on Angelina check the comment of Rusty Shackelford, he is the great Angel.

ANGELINA JORDAN now 16 years old - Signed with Republic Records only 14 years old. Her first album is at work with Republic Records for release. Born and raised in Oslo, Norway; this world-renowned singer has earned fantastic reviews for the amazing breadth, depth and maturity of her vocal talent that simply belies her young age. She started singing when she was only 1 1/2 years old!!!! Angelina’s videos have received over 1 billion views on KZread and almost 2,5 billion views on Facebook. Amazingly, her passion for music began at just one-and- a-half years of age when Angelina first saw Whitney Houston on KZread performing I Will Always Love You. Whitney - and later Billie Holiday, Dinah Washington - became her first major musical influences. At the age of seven, Angelina auditioned for Norway’s Got Talent performing Billie Holiday’s Gloomy Sunday. She won the competition with the show drawing record TV audiences. Not surprisingly, throughout her rising career, Angelina has featured in prominent media outlets including TIME, CNN, BBC, and People while also performing on the U.S. network TV shows Little Big Shots and The View. As well as singing before Nobel Peace Prize Laureates, charitable causes to which Angelina has given her talent include the Rainforest Alliance at the American Museum of Natural History in New York and Ein Herz für Kinder in Berlin where she helped raise over 21 Million Euros for children and families in need. This multi-talented singing prodigy has also written a successful, illustrated children’s book in her native Norway making Angelina the youngest published author in the country’s history. Based on the true story of when she was six years old, Angelina met a homeless, shoeless girl. After they talked for a long time, she gave the girl her shoes and vowed never to appear on stage again wearing shoes until all the world’s children had them. Since that time, Angelina has always performed barefoot in public. The reason they still take it fairly slowly is that she is only 16 years old - This in agreement with Republic Record, the family, and Angelina herself. She is now working on her record. Angelina has already sung in many countries, and all important people in the music industry know who she is. They only need to press the button when the time is right for the next step. No point in "burning out" a 16 year old jewel of a singer and I think many people forget how young she really is since she is so mature for her age! Angelina’s videos have received over 1 billion views on KZread and almost 2,5 billion on facebook. Give credit to Angelina Jordan by subscribing to her official KZread Channel!!! It was never the plan from the start to win as she did not want to sign the contact with AGT and give up rights. She waited until Republic Records came on the scene. and signed with them. AGT had tried for two year to get her to sing. She agreed that she did not have to sign. An Indian dance group won!!! Everyone looked at her as the moral winner, and the net boiled down afterwards where it was claimed that the show had been arranged in advance and fixed. Thanks for your reaction, but A FRIENDLY ADVICE! 😊😊👍👍Do not assume so much in your comment, as you came out completely wrong with this. Angelina is considered by many today to be the world's best young female vocalist. She has warmed up for Norah Jones i front of 40 0000 just 10 years old, and was specially invited to sing for Quincy Jones at the O2 Arena (London) on his 85th birthday. Angelina was signed by Republic Record ba 14 years old. She and they are now working on her first record. Today, Angelina is 16 years old.

Angelina Jordan won Norway’s Got Talent aged 8 years old, when Angelina was 13 years old she received the golden buzzer on American champion Got Talent and straight to the final , Angelina has around 160 Covers on social media, and 5 originals, she is known as the barefoot princess of jazz , she is known as the vocalist with a1,000 different voices, Angelina arranges all her performances herself even I Put A Spell On You, she is a musical genius, her technical ability is surpasses her years , Angelina 9 years old with this beautiful rendition, she is absolutely a genius!

She was nine when she recorded this, and never again sang this song the same. Also,by this time she was touring and appearing on European Television. You can hear her complete vocal transformation from six to sixteen (her current age) right here on KZread (over 160 covers and originals).

Wait till you hear more of her stuff. She is truly gifted and wonderful!!

8 at this point. Already seasoned performing with bands - orchestra's. Won Norway's Voice aged 7. Now 16? and Yes Magical! But not just magical -> Massively Skilled. Angelina is rocketing up into the top female singer on the planet spot. You think OTT? Keep Listening. She's kinda Dimash level - in the sense of her perfectionist and professional approach- but very different. Very unique. Angelina is growing into her self. Exploring and creating her own songs as well as doing lots of Covers. ( Most times far - I mean FAAAAAR - better than the original.) THIS is a career to watch. Maybe NEXT go to her Jazzy style performance of Bohemian Rhapsody on AGT (age 14?) I can hear you reeling back. "Jazzy BR?!' Yes. Kills it. 🤣👍

In the beginning of the video she handed the band's director a piece of paper. He glanced at it and started to smile. It contained changes Angelina was suggesting the band make for the performance. What !?!? 9 years old!

@0:17, She was 8yrs old and did the arrangement as well 😮😅, you'll see her give the band her 'notes' and this came off of her winning Norways Got Talent at 7yrs old 🎉😂❤❤❤❤

Please read all of Rusty's comment it gives you a short biography of AJ and will help understand how amazing she is. That question about impersonating arose when she sang Gloomy Sunday on Norway's Got Talent at 7 but when the judges got there the next morning she was over with the bass man making sure he understood how she wanted it done, and they were sure she was the real thing.

Thank you for reacting to Angelina , look forward to more .

What you don't realize is that Angelina today at 16 Angelina is already the best Jazz singer on the Planet! Angelina won Norway's Got Talent when she was 8 yrs old after starting the competition at 7 yrs old. The youngest winner of any Got Talent show on the planet. She had to wait two years because you had to be 7 yrs old to enter. She started with a rendition of Billie Holiday's 'Gloomy Sunday' which she just infused with Billie's soul. She followed this by another Billie classic with a pitch perfect rendition of 'I'm a Fool to Want You' acapella. Her next performance was a beautiful rendition of 'Bang, Bang' by Sony & Cher and performed most famously by Nancy Sinatra. She won the competition with what I consider her first Masterpiece performance of 'Summertime' by George Gershwin. Shortly after winning she was designated a National Treasure by the Norwegian people. There is video of Angelina recorded my her mother Sarah Astar singing a couple of lines of "I Will Always Love You' by Whitney Houston when she was 18 months old. She started studying all the greats of Jazz soon after under the guidance of her Iranian Grandmother Mery Zamani a child prodigy in her own right as an artist and poet. English is Angelina's 3rs language behind Norwegian and Farsi along with japanese and some German and perhaps more. She did this from 2 & 3 yrs old by scrolling thru KZread of all their most Iconic performance. Angelina doesn't just mimic these greats, she reinterprets them and then simply sings them the way they were meant to be sung. She makes them her own. Angelina was begging her mother to go on "that Simon show" when she was 3 yrs old. encouraged to sing children songs, she would have none of that. Angelina chooses her own songs and she is absolutely fearless. No song is too big and no artist is too Iconic. All the most Iconic songs by the most Iconic singers in music history. Angelina has said singing to her is as important to her as breathing. She will sing anything Acapella at any time and often does. Her Tic-Toc is full of these impromptu performances wherever she might be whether in the car, walking around the neighborhood or in a parking Garage. Accompanied by most often a simple guitar or piano her performances are always incredible. Add a band or even a full orchestra as in her performance for Quincy Jones at his request singing his arrangement of 'Fly Me to the Moon'. The same arrangement he did for Frank Sinatra. This opened for his 85th birthday celebration at the 02 Arena in London. Since winning NGT she has sung for celebrities and heads of state and some of the biggest venues all over the world. The industry is well aware of Angelina's immense talent and her family were inundated by offers from the biggest promoters in the world including Disney. All turned down by Angelina and her family. They have protected her while she finishes school. She has sung mostly for charities raising millions for children and climate change as well as a few festivals and occasionally some huge venues like opening for Norah Jones in Korea in front of about 40 thousand. Angelina finally signed with Republic Records a couple of years ago and has since released her 1st two original performances with 'Million Miles' and '7th Heaven' released at 14 & 15 respectively. The family waited till she had contractual control of her Artistic Vision. Republic has labeled her their Highest Priority and assigned a team to her including Rob Christy a multiple Grammy Winner, often on the piano in many of her performances and a whole team of equally qualified professionals. She has worked with some of the best musicians in the industry and always get exactly what she wants. They call her the Boss and have immense respect for her. I don't know if you will dive deep into this girl or not but you will be missing out on one of the most Iconic rises to stardom since Elvis or Michael Jackson both of whom she has covered many times. If you do I will follow to experience it with you. Again, Welcome from The Land of Vikings, home of The Kensington Runestone, and the largest population of Norwegian Heritage in America, Mid-Minnesota.

Mate, where have you been? Never heard of Angelina? Well now you know, she is a phenomenon like Dimash, many more of her on YT. Enjoy!

I think what you were trying to say is, TV is TV with all it's "bells and whistles" you question the validity of the raw talent but with Angelina you want to and NEED to be in the same room with just a piano and her voice. No bells. No whistles. Just pure talent.

Even her reactions to the band is that of an ancient soul....

Hola, muchas gracias por traer a Angelina a tu canal, este gue la primera cancion que escuche de casualidad de Angelina hace mas de 4 años, y a partir de ahi, todos mis dias la escucho y la sigo eligiendo, nadie toco mi alma como ella, ella es mas que musica, ahi hay algo mas que no se explicarlo y hoy ya no quiero entenderlo, escuche mucho Rock en mi vida pero llego Angelina y me sumergio al mundo de Jazz, y me enseño a sentirlo, es mi maestra, algo especial, gracias y saludos desde Argentina...

On Angeline and Jordan's initial audition on Norway's got talent her first song one of the judges made the comment that she sounded like she's been drinking whiskey since she was born. She was 7 years old. She won of course. This particular performance the musicians gave her the nickname the boss.

Thanks Michael. Can't wait to hear more.

You're so right about kids on talent contests. What makes one outstanding is WHO they imitate, how close that imitation is, not so much how good it is objectively. Outstanding about Angelina doing covers is her creativity in how she "assembles" a performance. She decides to do IPASOY, she doesn't just copy one of the other famous cover artists, she goes back to the songwriter, picks up what interests her from (his/her) version, then merges that with her personal voice modeled on eg. Holiday, Winehouse, James; then picks up bits from other singers who have performed that song; then studies or feels where she can usefully add something creative in the context. As Micheal Buble has said, "we're all stealing stuff from each other and those before us".

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,& is why she can capture the true spirit of the original singer ️💙 A rare beauty, in every sense of the word ️💙 Loved your reaction!!!

Another spell was cast by 9yo Angelina. Welcome to “The World Of Angelina Jordan Astar” (full name). “The Barefoot Princess With The Velvet Voice And A Mona Lisa Smile”. Born Jan 10, 2006. From her audition on Norway’s Got Talent (2014 - age 7 - Gloomy Sunday "Billy Holiday") through the final on America’s Got Talent The Champions (2020 - age 13 - Goodbye Yellow Brick Road "Sir Elton John") and the 130+ videos in between you will not be disappointed. This includes three originals song: “What Is Life”, “Oslo” and “Shield” Since then she has done many new covers and now her new singles "Million Miles" and “7th Heaven”, along with her movie soundtrack "Mercy" from the motion picture “The Hating Game”. My personal favorite is her cover of Lana Del Rey's "Born To Die". Athought ”Mercy” is really growing on me. 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 “Wish 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 talked 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 herself (and the world) that there are still children in need. All book proceeds go to charity.

She is 9 years and 2 months old.. thats insane 😳😳🙈❤️

There are so many performances by Angelina that will amaze you. Her audition on Norway's got talent at 7 years old singing Gloomy Sunday is when she was introduced to the world and is definitely worth a watch. You may prefer her rendition of Bohemian Rhapsody at 13 years old on Americas got talent - the champions (she got the golden buzzer). It really doesn't matter which of her 150 or so covers you watch, they are all stellar. When you learn more about her, you will realize she is an even better person than she is a vocalist.

Thanks for your reaction. When Angelina sings she feels and let all of us feel too. She is amazing and even now 7 year later she still amaze me.

I love this performance so much. As they say AJ don't play. Well perhaps this is what she does when she does play and we get the most stunning, amazing performance of a 9 yr old of this Jazz standard ever created. I believe it is going to go down in Jazz & Music history as the best ever for this age and in my opinion the best rendition of this song ever created Screamin Jay included. It will be revisited for Generations and will remain relevant for Generations to come. Any one discovers this performance for the first time today or a 100 years from today are going to be as amazed and astounded as everybody has been to this point. Think of the children who will be inspired by this one performance in the decades to come. This is an Iconic performance and will alway be Iconic. Angelina has on her own from early on at 6 or 7 yrs old reintroduced what I believe will be a whole new Jazz Era and redefined by this young phenom and prodigy. That is astounding! And she is just 16 years old... That is unfathomable!... Oh Lord... what is coming the world is not prepared for but we as fans have been on the edge of our seats and will remain there as we wait. No hurry. We want Angelina to do it her way when she is ready. She has already established her proficiency and incredible work ethic in this endeavor guided by an incredible family and professional support now surrounding her. We know Angelina will continue to amaze! We will be here to experience and cherish it for as long as we live.... and I am praying for many more years for myself to enjoy it till the end of my days... Not to be morbid but when I'm lying in my deathbed I hope to go out of this world listening to the most beautiful voice ever created for man just as Angelina came into it to fulfill her purpose, what she was put on earth to do, sing for the whole World... and Me! To me Angelina is always singing to me transporting me to that beautiful place she inhabits when she sings and to experience it with her. She has the ability to touch hearts and souls and change lives. She has the ability to change lives on a personal level and the power to change lives on a global scale. To me no one compares. You just watched a Masterpiece! Destined to go down in Music History as the best performance by a 9 yr old, Period! Past, present & dare I say Future! I'd like to see anyone, young or old who can do a cover of this & with the justice it deserves as Angelina has done on every cover she does. ♥👣👸🏻

It's like her voice is this constant, on-going force going on inside of her and she controls, modulates it at will. When she sings, she closes eyes (much of the time) and loses herself in her world, and takes occasional peeks out at us to see if we're still there. Don't worry, Angelina, we're not going anywhere. We're transfixed!

Angelina jordan is a vocal genius. She arranged the song. Told the band how she wanted them to play. That what she is writing down on paper when they show her writing down notes. She won Norway got talent at only 7 years old. You should watch her cover of bohemian rhapsody on America got talent. Absolute fenominal performance. Queen was so impressed with the performance they fave her rights to there material. Quincy Jones said she's the best vocal artist he seen since Michael Jackson the king of pop. Quincy Jones doesn't just give out compliments to just anyone. This young lady is going to reinvent the music industry. She's known as the Queen of a 1000 voices. You should do more reaction to other covers she's done. She will leave you wanting more.

She was 9 y.o. when this was recorded. She won Norway's Got Talent at the age of 7, so she was a seasoned performer by this time. Mostly covers Jazz but has performed across many genre's. She became popular in the states after her performance of "Bohemian Rhapsody" on America's Got Talent-Champions edition.

@@branscombeR Actually not. First song (audition) was at seven; next three she was eight.....(I'm a Fool was recorded on Feb 7/14 and aired on Mar 28/14).

Great reaction PC & info to (9) Angie. I give new Angie reactors a welcome pack, please read. She chooses all her own songs & does all her own arrangements ever since she was very young, even when she did Screaming Jay Hawkins “I put a spell on you” at barely 9, even at 7 & 8 on NGT (Norway’s Got Talent). On AGT-C season 2 Angie made her outfit from silkscreen patterns of her grandma's art work when she was 13 back in Norway. She makes several of her other outfits for shows & concerts too. She also paints great, plays 5 instruments & speaks & sings 4+ languages, English being her 3rd. Angie turned 16 on 1-10-22. Angie is a very kind, giving, loving, respectful, humble & a big hearted Christian girl. She always sings barefoot when performing & she wrote a book about it at 9 called “Between Two Hearts” & she was/is the youngest to be published in Norway. (Why does Angie performs barefoot. Angelina gives a short little interview explaining why she performs barefoot. kzread.info/dash/bejne/X5d3rqaSYKa5ips.html) Angie has arranged over 150 covers & written 5 songs & has had 2 written for her also so far, & she’s mastered over 10 genre’s already at 13. One of her nicknames is “The barefoot Angel/Princess with a 1000 voices & a Mona Lisa smile” & the “Queen of jazz”. Angie never sings a song the same way twice, so you could say they’ll all be 1st time reactions. Angie sings like an instrumentalist, combined with narrative music. Another reason she’s so especially rare & great. Angie is like a 2006 Bordeux in the Meroc but we’ll say Norway =) Her voice still wont fully mature for another 10-15 years. Then it can be opened. WOW , the aroma, color, texture & than we get to taste/hear it =) What Angie said about "I put a spell on you" in an interview a year later (when she was around 10 at interview) about this song: “It means love Desperate love. It's very special, it's almost voodoo The original is very nice, and when I scream it is a desperate cry that everyone should love each other.”- AJ. (the band members are part of KORK) On AGT Champions at 13 singing her rendition of “Bohemian Rhapsody” by Queen.kzread.info/dash/bejne/aZuFzsyxlcS0pbA.html (The performance was so astounding that Queen themselves posted a video of the teen singing 'Bohemian Rhapsody' on their twitter page with the caption:” Wow!!! What a rendition @angelinajordanA” And in an even more extraordinary turn of events, Queen then reportedly gave Angelina her blessing to record and release her own version of the song by giving her the copyright to do so.) Here’s her Ep of it. “Bohemian Rhapsody” by Angelina Jordan kzread.info/dash/bejne/f4dmusafl6zamZM.html

Always enjoyable to see someone who is articulate and knowledgeable get turned on to Angelina Jordan. Her musical portfolio to date is just astonishing on so many levels. Thanks!

Thank you for your great first reaction to Angelina. Oh, my friend, you are in for the ride of your life! It won’t be long before you will be inundated with other comments here that will give you excellent information about Angelina, her prodigious talent and her huge humanitarian heart. We all know your main purpose is to react to the performers (and you do it extremely well) but, let me just say, the more reactions you do to her, the more you will see your subscriptions, likes, views and comments go through the roof. Just know that Angelina’s millions of fans around the world are very, VERY loyal and will follow you to the ends of the Earth for as long as you continue to react to her!

This is the real deal, this is pure raw talent and she IS music!!

She is certainly channelling someone! Thanks for watching. 👍

You said it was either hit or miss, I think she hit you like you ton of bricks :-) She is nothing short of amazing. She is always way ahead of the curve with a long flat line behind her. She is obviously very gifted but also grows fast in her art and she is working very hard as well. She has a very versatile voice and uses it with great instinct, skill and precision. She has original songs starting from 12 on, and many covers. When she covers people she either reinvents the song which she did with Bohemian rhapsody and Billie Jean. Or she stays closer to the original embodies the original artist and then still makes it her own. Be prepared to be surprised at every trim when you listen to her.

Apart from the obvious ludicrously good vocal talent thus young lady displayed, it’s really important for you to understand that this was pretty much her own arrangement..she took SJH’s wacky original and performed just as SHE felt it..9 years 2 months..she’s special..I strongly recommend you continue looking into this phenomenal talent..subd. Bte she was already a seasoned stage pro by this age having performed live on many occasion in front of many thousands of fans.

Hi my friend nice that you took a little peek down Angelina's rabbit hole. You are at the very beginning and I hope that you embark on the further journey because there is a lot to discover she is the best singer in the world but you will find out for yourself and believe me you will become just as addicted as all the fans (Angels) are after her voice, she is also called the barefoot angel with the 1000 voices because she can adapt and improve her voice to every song and also conveys a lot of emotions and she not only has around 160 covers but also 5 originals, all of which are amazing and even now are legendary. and there is a lot to tell. I'm looking forward to further reactions and have now subscribed to you, greetings from Germany

A wonderful reaction with your unique insights. As far as her confidence and comfort level while on stage, I don't think it will ever leave her and here's why: During an interview, the host of a Norwegian TV talk show asked Angelina if she gets nervous before performing on stage. This was Angelina’s response: “When I sing, I go to another world. The world is endless. It's like, full of happiness. I love it. It's amazing. And when I am on stage, I don't want to go [leave the stage]. [laughing]. I just want to be on stage" A snippet of Skaylan’s interview of Angelina Jordan (age 12) on Norwegian TV - November 2018

Jim To add to your writing about her confidence and comfort level on stage: From an interview, prior to a concert in Norway a few years ago, she was asked if she found it "scary" performing in front of so many people. She laughed at this (as if to say: "'Are you kidding? Don't be silly!") and replied: "No, I think it's nothing but fun! I love singing!"

She is well known world wide in the industry. Her family and Angelina have been holding back turning down many of the biggest in the industry including Disney while she finishes school. Remember she's only 16. They finally signed with Republic Records about two year ago after getting a deal that gave her control of her artistic vision and has since released 2 originals, 'Million Miles' & '7th Heaven' plus a soundtrack for the New Movie "The Hating Game" which opens with her song 'Mercy' performed most notably by Duffy. She is due to release her 1st album I heard as early as June or July, fingers crossed but promised by Angelin to be soon. She has diligently perfecting her craft since winning Norway's Got Talent sing all over the world, Germany, Japan, Korea as well as TV appearances such as the view, Little Big Shots and most notably America's Got Talent where she premiered her Iconic song 'Bohemian Rhapsody' which Queen gave her the rights to record her own version on ITunes and Spotify along with an Album 'Magic' she released on her own and a Christmas Song collection. She didn't win AGT because she would not sign with Simon. IMO. She has also sung for Many Heads of State and for Quincy Jones 85th birthday at the 02 Arena in London and a couple songs opening for Norah Jones in Korea I believe. Also sang at the Nobel Peace Prize Concert at 8 yrs old for Malala and another recipient. Mostly she has sung for charities helping raise millions for children and climate change. The great part is that most of it has been well documented often by herself and her family. Her Grandmother who introduced her to Jazz at 3 & 4 yrs old is behind the camera more than anyone else. Norway proclaimed her a National Treasure shortly after she won AGT. Love the reactions. Get ready for a deep dive. She is worth it! Love from the Land of Vikings and the home of the Kensington Runestone here in mid-Minnesota wherein lies a huge Norwegian population.

Interesting comments. You will soon learn how amazing Angelina is. This performance understandably shocks everyone. She has over 160 KZread (also instagram and TicToc performances) that will amaze you. You are in for a wonderful and surprising journey. Start with her at 6 with "I Who Have Nothing", then go to her Norways Got Talent 4 performances. "What a Difference a Day Makes" at 8, She has an explosion of fantastic performances at age 10. "Feeling Good- Live on the Stream Gil Tibake". "Lovin You" "It's A Man's World" "I'm Still Holding Out for You", "Every Time We Say Goodbye" "Faded - w/Allen Walker", "Somethings Got A Hold on Me", "Fly Me to the Moon - Quincy Jones" to AGT's "Bohemian Rhapsody" and Goodby Yellow Brick Road" , to her recent " My Funny Valentine". And so many more like "California Dreaming", "Crazy" "How Great Thou Art" Portrait of a Child" and so many more.

FYI, this was her honoring Screaming Jay Hawkins 😮

She channels Screaming Jay Hawkins in this performance but this is her own arrangement performed a year after winning Norway's Got Talent. AJ is 16 now and has over 160 songs in many genres online including 5 original songs and 2 written for her. Thanks for sharing

She is a musical savant! "I'd Rather Go Blind", "My Funny Valentine" some of her great jazz covers. My favorite is her in the studio covering "I'm a Fool to Love You". If I didn't see her with my own 2 eyes I would have thought it was Billy Holiday singing.
