Angelina's always dangerous when she closes her eyes. She goes to a different place, but luckily she takes us with her. Angela said “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"

Just a young girl sitting on her blue velvet couch at home, backing track and a microphone (really good one she got for her 12th birthday, and it's backwards) and she is just trying it out and absolutely schooling everyone on this great Etta James rendition of this song. Thanks Sebs, love your Angelina reactions. Cheers, stay well.

Thats how its done folks!

Aren't we fortunate to hear this girl.

God shows his presence in unusual ways doesn’t he No auto tune diva can ever compare. I would love to see any one of them sit on a couch with just a mic and compete with Angelina. They would never dare.

Etta James was a Big Influence on Anjelina when she was a very young girl...as were All the Great Jazz and Blues musicians from the Etta James Era. She absolutely Loved them all and you can hear all the Greats influence in Her singing today! She does a Lot of interpretation of New Songs in the "Old" styles as well!

It's strange to hear that growly a voice coming from someone so young! Wow!

I am used to her fry but now she has a growl. She never ceases to impress me.

ONE IN A BILLION !! HER BEST IS YET TO COME.....⭐

My favorite cover, bar none..

Yes!… off the charts. ❤️👣

Compare this with, say, her version of “Mary’s Boy Child.” Just incredible versatility.

Does she ever breathe...???

Another one of her best performances wild bill 🙂

One of the most nuts performances I have heard from AJ, besides from her cover of Its a mans world ❤️ She is Just incredible and amazing ❤️ Let alone she is 12 here 😳😳😳🔥❤️

What can I say I rather words to describe her I need more adjectives that just say magic

Angelina Jordan Astar is my favorite singer of all time regardless of age she’s is number one I’m a top 10 she wakes me up in the morning and she puts me to sleep at night she said generation singer it will come along very often your child prodigy began singing at the age of 14 months and never quit

thank you vry much .

It starts around 3:23. Like Ethel Merman, Angelina could hold a note longer than the Chase Manhattan Bank, and sing it to the second balcony.

I've gotten to the point where I just click LIKE👍 before listening 🎧 to 👼 Angelina's song renditions. I'm soooo biased.

Angelina Jordan is a once-in-a-generation vocal goddess she is so talented so young so phenomenal I am dumbfounded she is truly wow

Hi, Sebs. This is Etta James amazement. Sitting on the couch with her new 12th birthday mike.... Yes, off the charts, and her lung capacity is amazing. It was amazing at age 9 in I Put A Spell On You, and it has only grown. So wonderful to see you enjoy Angelina Jordan and this song. Grandma Ellen, over & out. 💜

Raw, essential, powerful, passionate and unreal, this is our incredible girl. 💛🧡❤

Empress of Jazz grabbing heart strings takes you on a journey and brings it home!

She's so soulful ya just know it comes from the soul 💝💝💝

Angelina - much soul; exquisite duende ❣️

Great reaction thank you wild bill 🙂

Appreciate your reactions. Angelina is a generational voice. Couple that with her being an amazing human and it makes for an incredible experience. She's known as a one take. Meaning, she nails her performances with no breaks or cuts. This vid: It looks like she grabbed a shirt out of her dresser. Little or no makeup. There's a thermostat on the wall in the frame. Zero manipulation. Just a young, extraordinary girl, singing a classic with as much soul as the original. Stunning. My favorite vocalist.

Amazing, Incredible, Awesome, Stunning, Fantastic, I don't know of a better more versatile talented young singer than Angelina Jordan. Any body care to offer their opinion on who could be better ?

Pure talent, AJ is a prodigy .No doubt about it.A totally and complete professional artist. Since so young....God bless her.Thanks for the reaction you always precise and on point

This song was never a favourite of mine until Angelina sang it. She always seems to tell you the story of the songs she’s singing.💞 Great reaction.🤗🎼

How can you not appreciate excellence. This is awesome

Glad you finally reacted to this one! I sure voted for her.

Thanks for another great reaction

Sebs, just think of this: Angelina is a few inches taller now (at least 6 ft tall) than she was when she sang this at age 12. That means her lung capacity has grown proportionately. She reminds me of the free divers who can dive incredible depths w/o any breathing apparatus of any kind. 😱 Oh, and she was seated -- singers are taught to stand when belting for better use of the whole body.

For the exact same reason (being seated) I am amazed at Angelina singing to Jonathan “Sugarfoot” Moffett “I Have Nothing” (in the Republic Records studio). In the past six months we have been blessed with FIVE versions of this song, but Angelina’s casual delivery of this version to Michael Jackson’s drummer, while sitting in a lotus position at the edge of the stage is truly impressive. ❤️

@@vivi.laserra very similar singers. Loads of skills, especially Angelina, but more about the artistry, the use of them. The runs and riffs seem less like flexes and more like beautiful art. Just right. Very talented artists. Beautiful voices. I dislike the mashup, the backing track of low audio quality in IRGB doesn't fit well with the studio quality backing in TW. But it's the best one can do for that mashup I guess.

Angelina simply is a wonder. Great reaction Sebs, thumbs up sir.

This is one of my many favorites from the barefoot Princess she's amazing! Thanks for the great reaction and stay well.

Awesome reaction and one other thing not mentioned, not only is she sitting, she is leaning forward making it even harder, God Bless!

Been watching your reactions to AJ for a while now...liking them...being a hardcore Angel for years now...today I had to sub you for this one!

You loved the Chris Stapleton version of Tennessee Whiskey - this is the music for that, with the Tennessee Whiskey words. AMAZING songs, both of them!

shes an old soul.

Hello Sebs 🙂 I know it says Angelina (13) in the description, but that is actually wrong. What we witnessed here was Angelina trying out for the first time the new mic she got for her 12th birthday. In other words, she had just turned 12 here. Incredible performance by ANY singer, let alone a 12 year old girl. Thanks for the reaction, Sebs. I would have SEBscribed if I hadn't already. Love from Norway ♥♥♥♥♥

@@poolhallshark the way I heard it, she got the mock for her 12th birthday and this was testing it out, unaware that she had it backwards. I'm just going off of information provided in other videos, and have zero other proof.

She brings tears of happiness to my heart everytime I hear this, it is so stunning I have no further words. Great reaction Seb as usual for such a very special artist I see BigAngieFan has suggested Mary's Boy Child and I would agree for the next one and will be voting.

She does this all while sitting down. Thanks Sebs!

The original version of this song was the inspiration for Chris Stapleton's Tennessee Whiskey, which was originally recorded by David Allen Coe in 1981, with a traditional 4/4 country arrangement.

Love it, one of my many many favorites. Love your reactions also Sebs, you really "get" Angelina.

Sweet reaction, thanks. Angelina's jazz, blues roots really shine in the 2017 Proysenfestivalen concert performance of "Cry Me a River" ( kzread.info/dash/bejne/jKZoq7CJaNzOcpM.html ). The back-up trombone player is awesome.

Really need to watch her do: I put a spell on you. Keep going

🔥

I was waiting for you to get to this one, Sebs! This cover continually impresses me, no matter how many times I hit play. It's simply thrilling to see a 12-year-old girl absolutely smoke a blues/soul classic torch song like that. Angelina leaves most middle-aged pros in the dust. And so damned versatile, to boot! Thanks so much for the reaction. Have a great week. Cheers! 😇

would love to hear her sing some of garry moores blues

🥰

Remember when she was nine in "I put a spell on you" at the end the last note ! Now she can Inflate a hot air balloon without breathe I think ! 😂

Love your reactions and comments Sebs. Etta James in 1968 I believe. 'I’d Rather Go Blind' I saw Cadillac Records (the story of Etta James & Cadillac Records) and Beyoncé killed that song. How old was she in that? Angelina was 12 here got the mic for her birthday and what an investment. Here is Angelina, just sitting, sitting on the couch singing into the mic backwards, purposely or not and belting out the best rendition I have ever heard. I was instantly transported back to 1968 when I was 13. That was at the very height of Motown probably my favorite period in music. That music was magical. Angelina could have been born in '56 and she would have been one of best Motown Artists of the time in '68 and doing it at 12 yrs old. I can guarantee Angelina picked out that mic and again what a choice.

As a Noogie (=Norwegian) I've followed AJ since her beginning. This rendition of Etta James' 'I rather go blind' is the second best I've ever heard. The best belongs to Karise Eden from Australia. You should really check her out too 😂

Yes sir, she's very talented....... 💗💗💗

Imo this is ANGELINA experimenting with her vocals aged 12 with a new microphone for her birthday I stand to be corrected but I believe this was taken down from you tube soon after posting . obviously it's a good performance fans love it , but I do prefer her lower register for eg " born to die " .

And at 17 she is still a musical beast. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

If u want the latest from Angelina Jordan. Above the water ALSO HOW GREAT THOU ART . THEN THERE IS SHIELD WHICH SHE WROTE AT 12

She's just sitting there smiling knowing she was gonna kill it ! You need to check Etta's version either before or after Angelina real quick to compare.! Etta's is great of course but... unh unh unh.!

I swear she wakes up some days and says, “I’m going to be a 40yr old from the Deep South”

Yeah it's just a tiny breath before, and after the 16 seconds. With real power and long runs around it too. It is somewhat possible to sing while inhaling in some fashion. I can't pick it out here, but maybe she snuck a bit of breath in there somewhere.

I didn't see the voting section, but my vote is for her jazz original, "What is Life?" Specifically, the version with Angelina, Ivan on guitar, and a friend on the piano. She includes Grandmother Mery and little sister, Juliette, in the lyrics.

Nope, when I hear this I just want to hear Etta, also my idea of the most perfect combo of voice and song is Etta James singing, At Last.

Yeah. Angelina killed this one (while sitting on the couch..imagine if she stood up and leaned into it a little!)!! I believe she often chooses iconic well-known tracks for two reasons. One is that she uses them to test herself, to see if she can add something of hers to what is already spectacular while staying respectful to the original. Two, such proven quality songs provide a solid foundation for Angelina to work her magic, something a lesser track would not be capable of supporting. Nice job, Sebs! More AJ!

I tend to be a little bit cautious about singers trying on a Miss Etta song,but not this time. This girl is really and truly something special in this world.

For Angelina to hold the notes that long you would think that she had lungs the size of a Buick...

Additional vocalists that will impress: Morissette Amon (start with her original, Akin Ka Na Lang on the wishbus and the Fandom will guide you to other memorable performances), other wishbus covers-Never Enough, Rise Up, Secret Love Song. Dimash Kudaibergen- start with SOS (slavic bazaar version). Sinful Passion and Unforgettable Day (Gakku concert). Fandom will guide you through the rest. Faouzia (fo-zee-uh)-Tears of Gold (stripped), You Don't Even Know Me (stripped), This Mountain. Morgan James-several collabs with PMJ, duet with Haley Reinhart-Dear Prudence, Prince cover-Call My Name, Joe Cocker cover-Feelin' Alright. Lara Fabian: all from the From Lara With Love concert-Je Suis Malade, Adagio, Je T'aime.

Sebs, Of all of the remarkable covers Angelina has done this rendition of the late great, Etta James song is one of the quitecenncial examples of Angelina’s being endowed with genius level, multi faceted musical abilities.

Just amazing

Thanks, Sebs. Like Omar, the judge on Norway's Got Talent, I am out of words at this point. We need new ones to describe Angelina. Most people trying out a new microphone say, "One, two, one, two" and sing Baa Baa Black Sheep. Angelina belts out a classic version of a classic song like it's nothing, smiling like Mona Lisa as she does so. Phenomenal!

One of Angelina's best! Have you heard Beth Hart and Joe Bonamassa's 'Live from Amsterdan' cover? kzread.info/dash/bejne/h3l82bGYhajWZ6Q.html That's the difference between an EXPERIENCED SURVIVOR OF LIFE(Etta & Beth) and a 12 year old prodigy who can sing from a couch. Also, Joe's guitar solo is EPIC. If you love blues guitar solos, don't pass this one up. EPIC! On another note, Angelina is terrific with a future that is limitless, but please check out Morissette Amon from the Philippines. She's about 10 years older and is hitting her prime. She started young like Angelina, but now she's got the total package. Looks, range(low to Mariah Carey whistle range), stage experience(Interacts and can work an audience), can sing and dance, world class belter and has a DIMASH level breath control. First react to her cover of Andra Days 'Rise Up'. She has 2 versions of the same song.

If you're willing to listen to her sing her signature song in her native language, YOU HAVE TO react 'AKIN KA NALANG' with 158 million view in the last 4 years. This is what world class breath control is. You will not be disappointed. kzread.info/dash/bejne/q6J30NKRYLKZobg.html p.s. Turn on subtitles IF you like. She also has several Christmas songs and several medlies like from Beyonce to Bruno Mars. She's the real deal. Mariah, Whitney, Christina, Beyonce & Celine all in one. She should be a WORLDWIDE SUPERSTAR(Like Angelina), but being out of Asia, she lacks exposure. I like your reactions. Show more of your daughters. Do they talk? Wishing you and your family a Merry Christmas!

Play Jessica Sanchez was 12 when she sang i rather go blind

Etta James is the original singer

Reincarnation is real. She's back.

I am a Norwegian, and I have a son one year older then AJ (17), an a daughter that is one year younger. So if I could marry one of them to AJ, I would die I happy man. Ps. As a Christian you would love How great thou art, where you also get all of her darkest voice.
