Btw - the red electric Hagstrom guitar is the same guitar used by Elvis in his comeback tour. This was an intentional part of the tribute to Elvis (along with her black leather jump suit & Priscilla Presley beehive hairdo). Highly recommend her recent live performance of her original song Million Miles - Live at Kongsberg 2022. While I've listened many times to her earlier versions - lyric, studio & music video - now at 16 with a great live band, her new performance is breathtaking, Thank you.

    Hi there, Chris! I'm over the moon every time you react to my favorite artist 🙂 I think you are absolutely right that there is no post-production in any of her videos/performances. Angelina is one of the very few artists that doesn't need it. To be VERY honest, I actually think she sounds even better live. That may sound like a stretch or a sign of poor judgement, but it really isn't. I got to see her for 1,5 hrs straight here in Norway on July 10th, and I just can't tell you enough just HOW great she sounded. Not once off beat or hitting a sour note, just pitch perfect throughout. As for the sound picture in this performance I agree that an acoustic guitar would have lent a better hand to her vocals, but as this was a tribute to Elvis, and also released just around the time of the Elvis movie release, it just would have been a wrong thing to do IMO. Thanks for the shoutout, Buddy 🙂, but YOU're the winner😉 Keep your Angelina reactions coming, I'll be right here waiting for them. Truth be told, I'll be here anyway, but you know what I mean. Have a great Friday and take care! Love from AL, your Norwegian friend ♥♥♥♥♥

    Angelina created the vocal arrangement and pianist, Rob Christie wrote the music arrangement. In the beginning credits it shows that the executive producer is Mary Zamani. Mery is Angelina’s grandma. The two youngest children are Angelina’s uncle Michael’s girls and the older female is Angelina’s little sister, Juliette. Everything about this performance and production was purposely paying homage to Elvis. Angelina’s full body leather outfit, the guitar she was using and her bee hive hair style were what Elvis wore and played. He hair style is the same that Priscilla Presley wore in 1968.

    Great reaction - Angelina rearranged the song to bring out the meaning of the story. I was at her concert on July 10th, there it just happened that she had tears in her eyes before she sang this song, what she refers to as happy tears, she wiped the tears from her eyes just before singing the first line - perhaps the emotion of the occasion enabled her to give an ever better performance live than she did in the studio - of course we also were in a heightened emotional state to receive it... I hope that Angelina will return to Norway next summer for more concerts - otherwise I might need to travel to the US to see her...

    What a glorious production, praise to everyone involved, so perfect for Angelina Jordan she rules the universe with her talent. Again, the great talent of Rob Christie playing the piano. The Cinemaphotography, a total MASTERPIECE, Excellent ART Cole McCarthy! Great touch, the cousins and sister get a cameo. Mery, you should be so proud, AJ's grandma produced this. (This red guitar is identical to the one Elvis played in his 1968 concert on TV.) Oh, the tears, and loss of breath, she is like no other in the universe. Here is a classic example of what this ethereal talent, Angelina Jordan, can achieve she takes a mundane song and turns it in to phenomenal classic. Angelina at 16 is the MASTER of her universe, she is top priority for both Stargate, and AJ's voice has been unique since she was 7 years old and now at 16, she controls us as an audience, leaving us hang on every word and phrase. She has written a number of songs. My interpretation of the symbolism of this music video: First, and foremost; Angelina Jordan at 16 is the epitome of a Storytelling ARTIST, and she has the ability to take us by the hand and lead us down an imaginary path that we visualize as reality. The remarkable fact is that we experience this in each of her performances. In this video we see her as a married woman in her mid to late 20s. As the video starts out, we see dishes, and it is a symbol of a home. As AJ sings the phrase “Were caught in a trap, I can’t walk out” we see 3 small children, this to me is a marriage where the children come first. If it were AJ by herself, she would not stay in a relation without trust.

    Can't believe you hadn't done this yet. You're usually on top of Angelina videos. Yeah! She’s something special, isn’t she? Pure Velvet Perfection! This vocal arrangement was all Angelina, I have no doubt in collaboration with a stellar team including Rob Christie & Mery Zamani her Grandmother. She is a Master Storyteller. The video is shot in the same Antique Store that she did 'My Funny Valentine' on Valentine’s Day. I believe it is in LA near her home. I believe the girls in the video represent Angelina's Journey from infancy to present through the classics of music history. Thus the Antique store, She grew up studying and performing these classics. Did you notice that right foot raise it''s heal to cradle the guitar a couple of times in the performance. I was waiting for her to throw in a little shake to it in homage to the King. Could that have been intentional? That is Rob Christie on piano. Sister Juliette and a couple of Uncle Michael's Babies. I think that makes them cousins not nieces. Full Black Leather Bodysuit, the guitar from his concert in 68 and the hair a homage to Priscilla Presley. Yeah! She can bring tears to your eyes. I base my interpretation on my knowledge of Angelina's journey from an 18 month old little girl singing a "classic" of music history 'I Will Always Love You' . She has been listening to these classics on repeat on U-Tube since then under the guidance and inspiration of her Grandmother Mery Zamani. She has been performing these classics since her first time in studio at 6 yrs old.. She has continued this journey through her 1st introduction to the world with her "Classic'" 'Gloomy Sunday and following with her many performances at her many Jazz Festivals, TV performances, Concerts, and charity events, studio recordings and practice sessions at home accompanied or not. The location in the Antique store represents these classics (like the furniture) of another era. To me she portrays wonder at all these classics surrounding her. as she has travelled this road. Her tribute to Elvis is at her present age, today, each stage represented by her cousins and sister and ending with Angelina herself on the couch still admiring all this history surrounding her. The beautiful rendition of the song, and other tributes are in the leather outfit, Guitar and hair a tribute to Priscilla. Just my interpretation but it makes the most sense to me. .♥👣👸🏻

    The reason that the electric guitar is totally appropriate for this video is that the video is a tribute to Elvis Presley - The red guitar is the same model that Elvis used in some concerts, and the black leather outfit is similar to what Elvis wore on occasion - The hairstyle is a salute to Priscilla Presley and the red outfit worn by the pianist (Rob Christie, Director of Republic Records LA Studio) is the type of outfit Elvis's band would wear - another thing to point out is that the baby and very little girl are Angelina's cousins and the pre-teen girl is Angelina's sister Juliette.

    Elvis Presley and his producer Felton Jarvis cleverly covered this *Mark James song from 1968 in 1969* , Elvis' last #1 hit in the US and #7 of his most successful songs. Felton Jarvis took the original arrangement completely and pushed the song with more speed and additional instruments (wind instruments, violin etc.) and a spectacular backing choir (in the studio version) and of course with Elvis Presley's voice. Pianist Rob Christie changed the musical arrangement and Angelina the vocal arrangement, but she didn't change the lyrics. Angelina changes the lyric structure, starting with the bridge and giving the song a different meaning. Once again many people don't hear and understand the song until when Angelina tells the story. 💯 *AJ* 💯

    Miss Astar has Angelized yet another classic song. Her arrangement and vocal choices are magical. About a year ago, Angelina's team told us angels they believed reactions were hurting Angelina's analytics. There is some logic that if angels are watching reaction videos then they have less time to watch the original video. We enjoy reaction videos and don't want to hurt those channels so the solution was to suggest reactors encourage viewers to watch, like, share and comment on the original video. Thankfully hundreds of reaction channels have implemented our suggestions and we encourage they do so for each artist they feature.

    Thank you for returning to Angelina. Your reactions to her performances are always worth watching. I am certain you know that the song was written by Mark James, an American singer/songwriter, who recorded it the year it was written. The best known version, however, was that done by Elvis Presley. It was his last No 1 song. In the Wikipedia entry of the origins of the song, Mark James is said to have remarked "That late one night, he was fooling around on his Fender guitar and using his Hammond organ pedals for a bass line and came up with what he thought was a catchy melody. At the time, he was married to his first wife but still had feelings for his childhood sweetheart, who was married back in Houston. James's wife had suspicions about his feelings. He felt it was a confusing time for him and that all three were "caught in this trap that they could not walk out of." Other singers covering this song invariably base their performance on that of Elvis, in that it is very "upbeat". Angelina took a very different path in that she read and understood the lyrics and what Mark James intended when writing them . To my mind, her rendition is much truer to the emotions of the song. The children appearing in the video were Angelina's cousins Aurora (first) and then Athena - daughters of her uncle Michael Astar, and then her sister Juliette. I would hazard a guess that they were included to emphasise that children are very important to Angelina and her family. Confession! I have never been a great fan of Elvis Presley, although I do like some of his earlier recordings, and I had never heard of the song "Suspicious minds" but knew that Angelina would completely take ownership of it, and she did. It was beautiful. After listening to it several times, I decided to download the lyrics to see whether she kept to the original structure. She didn't, and the song is all the better for it. For me, that she started with the Bridge of the song is very significant and, I feel, very indicative of Angelina's "up front" transparency. She was declaring that it was important that their love did not die, and then carries on to say why she feels as she does. Others first say how they feel and then, almost as an afterthought, assure their love they don't want it to end. For me, it is whether I feel the singer is genuine about the situation and wishes it could be resolved or whether the singer understands the situation but thinks the blame is on her/his partner but feels the need to assure them they don't want it to end (until somebody else comes along).

    Absolutely what I expected. She made this her own song and she did it beautifully. I noticed Juliet sitting there she is going to be as beautiful as Angelina one day. Elvis' version is great and, and it still is one of my favorites. but Angelina's version is equally great and is definitely her own. When I first heard this song I loved it and put it at #3 on my playlist (Angelina Jordan Playlist by Terry M.), about midday I moved it up to #1. The main thing that changed my mind was the power in her voice. I'm not talking about loudness I'm talking about the power she has regardless of how loud or soft she sings. This is a quality that I haven't heard from anyone in my 82 years. This voice has become so unique that it is totally unmatched. Her phrasing in the last bridge is great. And she got Elvis’s ‘Oh Yea’ at the end of the song. The pianist is Rob Christie (3 Grammys), he is the head of the Republic Record department that is responsible for Angelina and other singers. The two small kids are her uncle Mike's kids, and the older girl is Angelina's sister.

    Lovely reaction good sir :) amazing reinterpretation by her here. This is subjective stuff, but that was only a hundred times better than that song has ever been done before. I also love the little mistakes here or there, the lack of post production in her works. Why clean up breathing or anything else when you can instead prove she is quite literally the instrument? Everything about her has been rather raw and that's always been a huge part of the feel. Now that she is so refined in so many ways, not cleaning things up is kind of our best way to keep that important part of what she does to us. I don't know if that is correct for other people, but the storytelling is great, the vocals are just unreal, and the raw feel does actually matter in her work almost as much. It bugs some people I've noticed, but only until they let it go I assume. Maybe being that good is what helps, but it seems like a leg up in keeping her studio stuff giving a similar feel as live. Seems like something we never really needed cleaned up, though that could just be her that can get away with that. Side note. Seeing this arrangement credited to Rob Christie is such a breath of fresh air. She loves to arrange her own stuff we know. But apparently, him and Republic Records would have to be very much on board with what she does if he arranged this. As if perfectly arranged like she would, and for her. No one should ever stop keeping an eye on labels nor trust them, but what a solid sign for our favorite singer :) and our fears for her.

I believe this song visually shows Angelina growing up with the classics but vocally I believe she was talking to her critics who say she can't feel the songs because hasn't lived them. I think Angelina is an impath and feels other people's emotions and the heart of the song.

    Great reaction. Note that her look on this video is an hommage to 68 Elvis comeback special (leather outfit and red electric guitar - same as Elvis used). Her hair is a tip of the hat to Priscilla Presley (the beehive hair). The piano player is Grammy award winner Rob Christie,Director Republic Studios at Universal Music Group. That is how important Angelina is to Republic Records. Not bad considering other artists in their roster include Arianna Grande, Taylor Swift, Drake. A pure diamond and future voice of a generation.

    Elvis Red Guitar Hagstrom Viking '67 Viking II Wild Cherry Transparent this is the same type of guitar he used in the 68 concerts. Modern Day Technology The new Hagstrom ’67 Viking® II equipped with its hollow-body slim lined flame maple ply body, is adjoined to a 6-in-line, bolt-on Canadian maple neck. The new specially developed dual coiled Hagstrom Mini-Humbucking pickups will bring players back to the golden age of rock/pop music, with the introduction of the newly developed Hagstrom “H-52” Mini Humbucker pickups. The same classic vibe from the 60’s originals, fused together with modern day technology for a classic and punchy humbucker tone or in splitable single coil mode, providing players with complete tonal flexibility. Elvis Presley's '68 Comeback Special Hagstrom Viking II is hitting the auction block | Guitar World The Hagstrom Red Guitar used in this video is a modern up to date copy of the one Elvis used in 1968. The Hagstrom Red Guitar belonged to musician Al Casey, a member of Elvis’ backing band during the special in 1968. According to an accompanying letter from Casey, he was asked to let Elvis use the guitar by the producers, as they "thought it would look beautiful on camera and with the set." Elvis Presley’s 1942 Martin D-18 acoustic guitar may have recently sold for $1.32 million, but fear not - another of the King’s axes, this one his cherry-red Hagstrom Viking II electric guitar, famous for its use in the legendary '68 Comeback Special, is hitting the block. The semi hollow instrument is a highlight of Kruse GWS Auctions’ Artifacts of Hollywood & Music auction, which begins on March 27. It's being offered with a starting bid of $250,000. By Matt Owen published March 31, 2021. Now, it has been confirmed that the legendary semi-hollow has been sold for a whopping $625,000, with the proud new owner of the lot managing to outbid six other plucky bidders to get their hands on the prized piece of music memorabilia. The ‘68 Comeback Special marked Elvis' return to live performance after seven years spent focused on acting in Hollywood films. The televised concert, which launched Presley's return to live touring, featured him playing the Hagstrom for the opening segment as well as during one of the live "stand-up" segments.

    Larry, when you listen to this again also look around and see all the references to Elvis. The guitar is the style Elvis used and that's why it appears in the video. Her hair resembles Priscilla's style and her outfit is similar to what Elvis wore on many occasions. Even the piano player dressed like one of Elvis' band members. As usual, she created a whole new song and she presented the story of it like only she can. Btw, the piano player is Rob Christie, an executive at Republic Records in LA and a several times Grammy Award winner who is usually at the keys when Angelina is recording a new video.

    The entire video is a tribute to Elvis Chris...therefore the red Comeback Tour guitar that Elvis used in 68 is PerFect. The leather suit, tribute to Elvis, the hairdo a tribute to Priscilla Presley and the red jump suit that Rob Christie on piano is wearing is tribute to band members from Comeback Tour as well. In other words all of this works perfectly and everything done here was for a reason, a tribute to the King, by the Queen, Angelina.

    I don't know who you're talking to that thinks Angelina Uses Autotune, but YOU are correct that Angelina Doesn't Need And Doesn't use autotune... The only time I think it MAY have been used on her voice (and IF so, I believe was Post Production Long after Angelina Had Left the Building!) was on the TRDX "Above the Water" song...As that is an EDM tune it would not be unusual to use autotune as an Effect, but even on that tune, it is not an obvious usage.. None of her other songs betray even a hint of autotune to my ears!
