Angelina does belt in a few songs, including I Have Nothing (reaching a bit for the 1 or 2 highest notes) and It's a Man's world. Her range that I (and others) have witnessed is 3.5 octaves, from around B2 to around F5. In I Have Nothing she uses a full chest voice, reaching the upper limit, whereas in Unchained Melody (at the very end) she uses a head voice to get to the same approximate range (edit: I just checked and it's G5). It's a Man's World doesn't go quite as high as I have nothing, but the power in her voice is astonishing. Songs like A Million Years Ago show off the lower limits of her range. You may hear 5 octave range from some of her fans. This is confusion caused, I believe, by a reactor noting that she was reaching well into the 5th octave in I Have Nothing. People read that as "5-octave range. I think the most remarkable thing about her range is the ease with which she can sing at the lower end. Also, I know you didn't mean it in a bad way, but while Angelina definitely was gifted with a beautiful tone, she has developed superb vocal control and learned many techniques through years of hard work. She is a classic case of immense talent + immense dedication in a small child with a supremely malleable brain. As a child (not sure how long) she studied music after school at the Conservatory in Oslo. I sure hope she has a vocal coach to protect her vocal cords but we don't hear anything about that. You need to check out her amazing new original single, Million Miles, released under her new label Republic Records and produced by the Stargate duo! Thanks for the pro-grade reaction!!!

oh finally I understand why is everyone saying 5 octave range, cause I am a big fan of her, but that was extreme reach since it would be a whistle. I get it now. no no, 3,5 is 100 percent a fantastic range, but as I said range means a little to Angelina (it is a born ability, flexibility of the vocal chords, it can be trained but only to an extent), she would be an amazing singer with her technique anyways. I was coming out of the two songs I heard so far (first one was rhapsody). I cannot wait to hear some more of her! On your remark of vocal coaching, 100 percent. especially if she attended conservatory (idk about northern countries, but I had my vocal coach for years after I left school, she knew me the best, so there is a possibility she trained with her further) She has something I call sophisticated voice (voice that have been educated since the very childhood, usually kids from the age approx 5, which is where I started too) schooled and polished. It really shows. I am super happy she is protecting it with a proper care.

Absolutely right! :)

I see a lot of talk about range in the comments. With Angelina, I think we have to talk about a different kind of range.... style range. I personally have never heard an artist that has such complete mastery over so many different styles of singing. She can sing old jazz from the 40's or she can sing modern techno pop.... and everything in between. But not only can she sing all those styles... when she does it, she makes it sound so good, and makes it look so effortless that you would think that it is her specialty style. For me "note range" is a dime a dozen.... the range Angelina has is very rare, and priceless. And I couldn't make a comment to a new reactor, without including this..... For anyone new to Angelina, 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 14 - 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 130 songs and over 65 artists in the last 6 years. 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 and Lana del Rey 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 three of her own original songs: "What is Life", "Shield" and "Oslo". (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. Update: 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 she has released her first single under Republic... "Million Miles"! She has done so much already, but at 14 she is just getting started!!!

I think there about Angelina that are extra special. Not only did she notice the young girl with no shoes, but she helped on her own. She decided on a course of action to highlight this issue, and carried it out on her own. We all know she is extraordinary in her craft of singing, but she has a kind, caring, and devoted resolve to help others. How many young people her age can say that.

I too, used to believe she couldn't hit high notes, then i heard her do Whitney Houston (I have nothing) and actually hit Eb 5 on a very strong mixed voice. And switched to head voice on E5. So, yes! She is able to go very high, and retain her beautiful tone. I guess she is more concerned with maintaining the range that best suits a particular song, than trying to show off, like so many mediocre singers have a tendency to do.

@@Katriinka A lot of people comment very confidently on her pitch range when they really have no idea what they're talking about (I'm not referring to you, p. a.). The bottom line is this: The lowest note we've heard from her is in "How Great Thou Art" kzread.info/dash/bejne/iYB1p9tqfKyuosY.html and her highest notes are more varied, because she sings them differently in different songs. Her highest "pure tone" note is in "Unchained Melody" when she was 9 kzread.info/dash/bejne/qYSar9yGlaWyktI.html and again when she was 11 kzread.info/dash/bejne/oXWIp7mzetvQY84.html (same note both times). Her highest belted note is in "I Have Nothing" kzread.info/dash/bejne/l4iX2NiIZqWZedI.html posted when she 13. And then there's a "screech" she did in "I Put a Spell on You" kzread.info/dash/bejne/oKt6ztF8gLvgc9Y.html at 9, which I'm not sure should really "count". On the non-musical side, probably the highest pitch she's produced in any video that is publicly available is a scream she let out on a roller coaster kzread.info/dash/bejne/a4iTs8apfZyWXaQ.html when she was 10. So, there ya go. You can make your own assessment of what her range is. (All of these videos, except the roller coaster one, are well worth reactiing to.) (BTW, p. a., I believe her highest note in "I Have Nothing" is actually a G5. It's when she sings "Stay in my arms" for the last time. She also sings that note more cleanly than Whitney did in the original studio recording of the song, which is pretty damned impressive, if you ask me. :)

Hi Katriinka, you are just some months in the universe of Angelina Jordan - thanks a billion for this lovely and professional reaction to her - I'm sure to hear more reactions from you! I think you know it already: Since your first song sung by AJ that you listened to you are assimilated in Angelinas entourage! Resistance is futile... Even if you won't believe it and if you are in denial about it: Only listen to one song sung by Angelina Jordan and you are hocked on listening her voice! May be you aren't aware of it yet... a legend says in rare cases there are humans who can resist.... but I can't believe it ;-) Every time it's a pleasure to watch people reacting to Angelina Jordan - not only when it is the first time - and I hope to see more of your reactions on Angelina Jordan... ;-) As you said "...high for her..." in the first part of this song I had to smile - until now you haven't reacted to many videos from her she shows, that she can sing higher than here - her Whitney Houston Tribute of "I Have Nothing" for example (kzread.info/dash/bejne/l4iX2NiIZqWZedI.html) - but there are many more.

Great Angelina Jordan (born Angelina Jordan Astar on 10 January 2006) is a Norwegian child singer, of Iranian ancestry, whose audition for the 2014 season of Norway's Got Talent at the age of seven, singing "Gloomy Sunday" in the style of Billie Holiday, became a viral video online, and led to worldwide press coverage.[1][2] She went on to win the competition (at eight) with her performance of George Gershwin's "Summertime". Since then she has worked to raise millions of dollars on behalf of environmental causes and children's charities around the world. She always performs barefoot, after befriending a young shoeless girl while traveling when she was six years old. Jordan wrote a book about the experience and became the youngest published author in Norway. After Jordan's performances of two Billie Holiday songs, "Gloomy Sunday" and "I'm a Fool to Want You", on Norway's Got Talent, as well as "Fly Me to the Moon" on a TV talk show, all went viral online in March 2014, she was featured in Time,[1] Daily Mirror,] People, and other news outlets around the world.[6] She continued in the competition singing Nancy Sinatra's version of "Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down)" live in the semifinals,[7] and won with her performance of George Gershwin's "Summertime", in the style of Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong's 1958 recording of the song. In September 2014, she performed "Fly Me to the Moon" on the US television show The View,[8] bringing her wider fame in the United States. She also performed on several TV 2 programs in Norway over the next few years, including multiple appearances on Allsang på Grensen (Singalong at the Border, referring to the border fortress of Fredriksten where outdoor concerts are held) and on TV4 in Sweden. Jordan had a small guest role in the final episode of the Netflix series Lilyhammer, playing a girl who sings in a bar.[9] In December 2014, she realized a personal ambition by performing for Peace Prize recipients Malala Yousafzai and Kailash Satyarthi at the Nobel Peace Prize Concert.[10] Jordan's recording debut, the three-song maxi-single My Christmas, was released in December 2014.[11] To support the release, Jordan performed the songs on multiple TV shows, including an appearance on Christmas Day. In 2015, Jordan began recording music that would eventually be collected on the six-song Angelina Jordan - The EP, released on 27 November 2017.[12] Many of the tracks were posted to her official KZread channel[13] well in advance of the EP release, in the form of music videos and lyric videos. These included her covers of Screamin' Jay Hawkins' "I Put a Spell on You", the music video for which was directed by Per Heimly, and Amy Winehouse's "Back to Black", in which Jordan sang her own original lyrics. These two music videos became the most popular videos on her official KZread channel, surpassing 5 million views each by 2020. In 2017, she created a second KZread channel specifically to present performances of cover songs.[14] In November 2015, Jordan published the book Mellom to hjerter (Between Two Hearts), illustrated by her grandmother, Iranian artist Mery Zamani.[15] The book tells the story of her meeting a poor motherless girl in Asia who has no shoes. After a long conversation in which they discuss their dreams in life, she gives the girl her shoes and the girl promises to pray for Jordan to fulfill her dream to become a successful singer. According to Jordan the book is based on a real incident which she cites as the reason for always performing barefoot.[16] In April 2016, Jordan performed "Fly Me to the Moon" on the first season of the noncompetitive children's talent show Little Big Shots.[17] A year later she performed "What a Difference a Day Makes" on the UK version of the show. She also performed "I Put a Spell on You" on the German edition of the show, Little Big Stars, in 2017. In December 2016, she performed on Alan Walker is Heading Home, a live concert broadcast from Bergen, Norway, where she sang Walker's songs "Sing Me to Sleep" and "Faded".[18] On 15 June 2018, a full album of recordings with Staff Band of the Norwegian Armed Forces (Forsvarets stabsmusikkorps), called It's Magic, was released.[19] The next day, Jordan and the band performed the full album live in a concert attended by Norway's Prime Minister. On 27 June 2018, Jordan performed "Fly Me to the Moon" for Quincy Jones in The O2 Arena in London, as part of his 85th birthday celebration, and also joined with other singers to perform "Man in the Mirror" to close the show.[20][21] In 2019, Jordan performed for former president Barack Obama and other public figures at the Brilliant Minds conference in Stockholm. In October 2019, she competed in the second season of America's Got Talent: The Champions, which was aired in January and February 2020.[22] Her first appearance on the show, singing an original arrangement of Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody", received a "golden buzzer" from judge Heidi Klum (meaning that Jordan would pass directly into the finals). As with her Norway's Got Talent audition six years earlier, a video of Jordan's performance began to go viral on KZread, quickly reaching 10 million views.[23] The performance also garnered praise from Queen's official Twitter account.[24] Shortly afterwards, the video was taken down[23] and Jordan released a studio version of the same arrangement under her own copyright.[25] Jordan's second performance (in the finals), a similarly reworked "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road" based largely on a version by Sara Bareilles, was also well received, but she was not among the top 5 acts. In August 2020, Jordan's manager (her uncle, Michael Astar) announced that she had signed with Republic Records.[3] Her first single on the label, "Million Miles", was released on 6 November 2020, on all major digital platforms.[4] An official lyric video was posted to her official KZread channel the same day.[26] The track was produced by the Norwegian duo Stargate, who also co-wrote the song with Jordan.[27] She has since released two additional music videos for the song: one showing her singing the song "live" in a recording studio, the other an "official music video" featuring her younger sister.[28][29] Personal life Edit Jordan was born in Oslo, Norway, and has lived for extended periods both there and in Los Angeles. She also lived for a time in the Middle East. She has a younger sister who has been featured in two of her music videos. Her father, Gerry Christian Slattman, is Swedish. Her Norwegian mother, Sara Astar, is the daughter of Iranian artist and poet Mery Zamani and a Japanese father.[31][16] Jordan attended the Oslo Waldorf School and participated in the Oslo School of Music and Performing Arts after-school program, where she received vocal training. In addition to singing, she plays the piano, violin, guitar, and flute, and also paints.[32] As of 2020, she is living and going to school in Los Angeles As of 2019, Angelina Jordan’s estimatednet worth is $9.4 million .

I think Angelina is the best out there 2020!

Thank you, Katrinka, for a wonderful Angelina reaction. The other comments here will give you excellent information about Angelina. Let me just say, the more reactions you do to her, the more you will see your subscriptions, likes and views go through the roof! Angelina’s fans are very, VERY loyal!!

I will definitely check more of her, no worries, but trust me Nightwish, philipino, dimash and tons of other fandoms are loyal and supportive a lot. I want to see her cause I am interested, not just because of views and subs :) i genuinely enjoy her :)

Angelina has many voices and sings many genre’s. When you first listen to Angelina you think of her in terms of that song and you judge her from how she sings it..her voice, range, quality...and you, like you are quite impressed....a few more sings and you will hear different voice qualities, different genre....still great quality...she has the ability to sing just about anything because her voice is so flexible. So saying that her voice is low is correct...in this song...but she can and does sing songs using higher rangers of notes beautifully. It just depends on what it is that she sings. She is a great jazz and blues singer and that is saying something for someone that is only 14 yrs old. I imagine when she gets older....she will be out of this world with jazz and blues. She has a huge variety of music to choose from and honestly her singing is addicting. She somehow can reach in and touch your soul and tug at your heartstrings....she does more memorable songs than I can recall..but one that she took and did her own arrangement..which she always does..and just sat down, with a mic and keyboard while being video’d while she started working out this song. I have heard that she like the way that it turned out right away so she stopped, went out and played with her sister in the backyard.....if you listen to this song you will understand my amazement. She was 12 years old.....and it is impossible to understand how a 12yr old has the comprehension to understand and then recreate their version which turned out so much more heart wrenching and hypnotic.....Wicked Games kzread.info/dash/bejne/Z311r6htdqfMp5c.html. Here is the link if you care to listen......oh and another thing.....she really sounds a lot like Amy Winehouse in some of music. She has even done covers of her music....better than probably anybody else’s.

Love your analysis & details!! Thanks!

I would love 💕 for you to do an analysis of her young voice compared to her present voice. I think that would be awesome. Today I saw a reaction were “Mike Ambitions” was blown away by Angelina’s voice on Million Miles (her new release). He had only heard her on Gloomy Sunday and Fly Me To the Moon at 7 and 8 years old. It was a shocker 😁

I am resisting my best to not run and listen to it now before I make a video haha. I just want to have pure first impression :)

People don't realize that Angelina is only 13 and has a range of voice controls, she started singing when she was 3 years old, not only can she reach then the high notes, but she can get to the lower notes with some simplicity as well, Angelina done her own take on Bohemian Rhapsody but also on Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, She's a star in the making

Angelina began my KZread journey back into music. Via her, I discovered Dianna Ankudinova, Dimash then finally Nightwish and Floor Jansen. I had pretty much stopped listening to music fo years ( decades actually). I didn't NOT listen, I just didn't actively seek it out to listen to. Angelina made me want to listen to music again ( Put a Spell on You). Without her I would never discovered Dianna, nor Floor , so I owe her big time. Now I sit on youtube and fanboy ( OK ...fan old-bloke). Oh! by the way, your voice is georgeous! Really georgeous. Even distracts me from the abovementioned singers ( Alright, maybe not Floor. Sorry. That woman has a direct connection to my brain via an unknown pathway).

Being a vocal coach and also like jazz I think you must go back in time and start listening to Angelina when she was 7 years old. Listen then to some of her over a 100 covers songs and her own songs. Watch how she can perform in different music genres and most of the time it sounds like a new song . Thank you for your reaction. Looking forward for more reactions to Angelina.

Angelina has a huge gift of talent it is true, but few have put in the work to complete 130 or so covers across 60+ artists and numerous genres by the age of 13. It is that dedication that hones her impeccable sense of timing and variety of vocal techniques that she can employ as desired.

A competent Expertise, you did IT.

👩🏻🎤🎵🌎⭐️🇳🇴❤️ Thanks Katriinka for this wonderful reaction to Angelina. For me, Angelina's voice has the most beautiful tone I've ever heard in a singer.

Welcome to the world of Angelina You have not heard a thing and a half about the abilities of this jazz princess. Every offer that people here give you is gold because in every performance you will hear something different, enjoy . . . ❣

Angel ina 🙅‍♂️ is Amzing; You are such a lovely lady!

Need to listen to more of her songs. She just turned 14. She has a new song out called million miles. Please listen to more of her. Check out her rehearsal practice for summertime when she is 7 or 8 she at one point gives the musician playing the horn direction how she wants him to play it by mimicking the horn soundand showing him that she wants him to go higher it’s hilarious but she understands music and she knew what she wanted out of the musician you might want to check out just two versions of I put a spell on you by Screaming Jay Hawkins I would check out both versions the black-and-white but then there’s one she’s just a bit older than nine and she really hits these beautiful low notes that are unbelievable more like a baritone.

Yes PLEASE do a child/teen comparison video for her! I'm following your channel hoping you will.

New subscriber from Fresno, California, USA looking forward to your discovery of Angelina's early work on up to today's! 🔥✌🙂💯💕👏👏

Angelina's Album she did with the Staff Band of the Norwegian Armed Forces "It's Magic" and her single of "Fly Me to the Moon" still show up from time to time on Itunes Jazz charts!

Angelina Jordan will sell songs because of her ability to "hit the spot" where emotions are concerned. She has an enviable ability to produce what people (even people who didn't think they would) want to listen to. She is the "goose bump queen". Music that stirs your emotions and you will never forget. She will be a legend in singing, she's already half way there. :) Always good to listen to your reaction videos Katriinka. people like you help people like AJ do what they do even better. :) xxx

Key designs and makes all her own clothes and she arranges all her music videos herself she was born with a gift 🥇

Ha e just heard Angelina sing "I have nothing" of Whitney Houston and she delivered majestically. She is an absolutly stunning singer.

I'm thinking you are going to be amazed at Angelina's range... Hear some of her other performances. Her voice changes like the colors on chameleons.

Hola Katriinka, muy buena reaccion, y mas que reacciones a Angelina, siempre escuche Rock y Heavy y Angelina es como que hizo encontrar ese lado incolcluso que se ve que tenia con la musica y gracias a ella empece a consumis otra musica sin dejar lo anterior, ya tengo 51 años y nadie me hizo sentir tantas emociones hermosas, si cerras los ojos cuando canta te hace ver personas, paisajes, colores y tantas cosas, tambien por su lucha con la desigualdad y los niños a su corta edad, con solo salir descalza al escenario ya nos esta dando un mensaje, es algo increible y muy especial, sin dudas mi numero uno, gracias por la reaccion y por favor reacciona mas a Angelina, me gusta como explicas y aprendemos, saludos desde Argentina...

Angelina brought me here, she is extremely talented and full of surprises! Never seen your channel before and enjoyed the reaction Katrinka. Subscribed. Ah, now I remember your first reaction to Angelina! It's good to see you are sitting more comfortably now - I hope you are well.

I love anything from Angelina Jordan. Thank you for your great reactions.

Loved your comments and analysis. I subscribed for more.

I recommend that you listen to more Angelina covers before making up your mind about her or her voice or what she is choosing to do. She is worth it. I appreciate your reaction .. but she's has worked singularly harder than any singer I've every heard of for versatility in her voice and amazing relaxation since she was tiny. I recommend you listen to her singing Gloomy Sunday at seven years old (her first song on Norway's Got Talent) as well as any of her Whitney Houston covers to hear her high voice. You will hear from a lot of Angelina fans, I am sure. Go to her own area on You Tube so you're not a) watching her in a tiny little part of the screen; and b) so you can hear her do a whole song without interruption. If you read about her childhood you will learn that she has worked extremely hard because of her passion for music and jazz (her grandmother loved and loves jazz) and since she was tiny she spent a huge amount of time listening to all the jazz classics and finding her own voice by figuring out how to relax and find how to do it. At five she wanted her mother to get her into Norway's Got Talent but they said their age limit wad seven. The four songs she does for them are available to see and are nothing short of mind- boggling and stunningly beautiful. She has mostly taught herself and found her own way .. with support from a wonderful family. She had always known what she wants it to be and sounds like and had amazing support getting there. And yes, she was and is blessed .. but your statement about "all she had to do is open her mouth and sing just like others who are born gifted" could not be farther from the truth. I imagine you will find this or for yourself if you decide to truly listen to and explore this amazing soul named Angelina.

For me it's not about range, belting, hitting this note or that note - it's about feelings. Does the singer connect with me on some way. Do I like the sound (tone) of their voice and how they deliver the song. Angelina has incredible technical skills and she uses them to deliver what is the most important factor me, and that is the emotions, the feelings, and the soul behind the lyric's meanings. If you want to let yourself get emotionally invested in a performance, Angelina can certainly accommodate you 😁 ...and oh yes, she's a 14 year old. Her future looks very bright indeed.

This song doesn’t begin to show the many voices of Angelina Jordan. She can hit very high notes as in Whitney Huston songs she covers!!

I love Elton John's songs since long long time ago ! I Love you too. Brilliant Singer!!! Congratulations!!!!!

Nicely detailed reaction.

She can sing Whitney Houston and hit every note. She has a 5 octave range.

Watching you in phillippines palawan god bless

Hope you smiled all day today ❤️ from TX

Her tone is so warrm and wonderful that my ears just want to hear it. Im not really here for the song but just her voice.

Analysing Angelina's singing as a child vs as a teenager sounds interesting. I would definitely watch a video like that

Excellent technical analysis K. Just going to add to all my future expressions of appreciation of her hard work and sacrifices, when she started her patreon, she expressed a hope for 2,000 members to help her finance her start into the music business. At now, only 250! Let's help the family out people.

She has great high notes for contralto. F#5 with chest voice in I have nothing. And even higher with head voice in Unchanged melody. And low notes somewhere down to C3 in How great thou art.

Loved the reaction..I'm a huge fan of hers and Dimash, and put them on the same type of category but for very different reasons. I can't wait for you to continue your Angelina Jordan journey..just wait, she will continue to surprise you. Keep an eye out for Rusty Shackleford posting on your Angelina Jordan videos as well..he will always provide almost insider-like info on her whenever a reaction of hers is posted!

I hope you do a reaction of Angelina singing "I Put a Spell On You" when she was younger. Oh I L O V E IT when you say "Range". Beautiful.

nothing is difficult for this girl! she can sing anything! high or low, she's amazing. check out her other songs.

How many people even care about her range? High notes and low notes mean nothing. It is her tone that makes the difference and the fact that she doesn't just sing songs, she immerses herself and the listener in them.

This is a beautiful rendition of a classic song. I love it.Thanks to you I have heard it now. Wishing you a great day Katrinka 🙂

I'm happy to see you recovered from your pain/health issues (since the last Angelina video).

I feel connected to the song when Angelina sings. Wide vocal range means nothing to me if it take away the emotion or feeling that Angelina is conveying.

Angel can do whatever she deems necessary. But you are correct, it is all perfectly natural: "Born To Sing" as was said in NGT Audition, the first time a judge got to comment.

Please, please, please more of Angelina.

Great reaction 👍👍🙏🙏💙💙 believe me when it comes to belting she can do it better than any singer out there

Try her At Last or Cry Me River. She gets the intonation of older days.

Her lowest notes in "Million Years Ago," written by Adele amaze me the most.

I think a song like "My Funny Valentine" is well suited to her. I enjoy her singing style with all the little embellishments she uses. She is a talent, that's for sure. I hope you are feeling well lately, stay safe.

She went to a musuc school since before she won Norways got talent. Mentored wirh likes of Quincy jones and Jean Simons. Played with imperial bands as backup.

How many runs can you put in a road???? Love it. 💜

I don’t think you can compare her as an adult yet, because I don’t think she is an adult yet. She was 13 when she was on America’s Got Talent, and she was 13 when she sang the song you just critiqued. She was 7 when she won the Norway title.

I am a huge Angelina fan and I belive she has one of the most enjoyable voices around .. others must agree also sense she has one of the largest following fanbases in the world .she brings emotions to songs that other singer bring more belt , more techniques to but does little for the listener...
