Another masterpiece from Angelina. No one is better at evoking emotions and moods than this beautiful young girl. She makes "Yesterday" sound like today! Her presence and infinitely beautiful voice are just stunning.

[@makobasila4350]

Thank you for a great reaction to Angelina ...... 👍👍love her rendition. Absolutely beautiful ......✌

[@hans-georgschroter7887]

she is working now again in the studio for a new release with RR. She did a short clip on tiktok for warming up.

[@Woerdoxer]

I think we're lucky. Angelina is the best singer of our time and we can follow her footsteps. It doesn't matter what she sings, Angelina fills my soul and my heart with joy, love and happiness. She is a treasure of our generation. 🧡

[@osovagabundo1]

Exactly, she is a balm for a bitter heart. I have about ten ballads on my phone. Put it on the car and drive down roads unknown. Her voice becomes the soundtrack of the day. I totally unwind

[@bobanderson9141]

She zeros in on people's all-time favorite songs. She is fearless.

[@marvinboswell6889]

She seams to be able to do so many beautiful things now with her voice that is just so appealing to your ears and soul .enjoyed the reaction. THANKS

[@lutobravodaniel2189]

Magic !!!!!!!!!! Absolutely fantastic !!!! The gift of God !!!!!!

[@peterbritz620]

Thanks Adam. Yes, she is phenomenal

[@MONTE007100]

for years now i am repeating myself,when i say she is healing for real,,,,,,every song ,even if you are not fan of it,,,is special because of her energy ,,,and no other singer is gifted to do this kind of magic,,,,,,,,,,,,,its pure angelic and is almost sacred

[@annettes4480]

Angelina sings folded up in a grocery cart and sounds "better than everyone" to quote Omeezy about another Angelina song.. Great reaction from you, Adam.

[@claritatzinatbakhsh7723]

She's simply adorable and amazing!!!!! ❤️🥰

[@kenscott8966]

It is remarkable what Angelina can do sitting. Eventually she's gonna stand up again and....watch out!

[@frodeingebretsen4225]

It is like a live performance. Her voice and transformations do miracles to any original. Waiting impatient for the next miracle.

[@halina8369]

Angelina Jordan very beautiful and interesting voice 🎶🌾🎶 Perfect interpretation 💯 Thanks for the beautiful video 💐

[@ansellchezan5848]

As you said Adam. "NICE" Thank you for sharing this, ANSELL xx xx 🌈 🌈

[@ewajacobsson4152]

Having a perfect, beautiful singing voice is one of the most coveted qualities in the world. The ability of the voice is almost like a reflection of the soul. Her pure singing voice touches us and touches our hearts in a way that is unlike anything else. The ability to sing in the right tone and convey the feelings of the music. To push into the rhythm of the song and perform the joy of music to the audience. We can only imagine what level her music will hold in the future if she continues on the same path. She's music ... ❤

[@magdamulford4038]

Adam you absolutely right!♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

[@MaceAroundTheWorld]

Bout time my friend 😜 Great reaction! I love it of course. Can’t wait for some AJ originals 😎

[@AdamStraughan]

Definitely man!

[@stevek5332]

Great reaction, as usual, Adam! Angelina delivers a level of melancholy that the original didn't, especially the last time she says "Yesterday". Her body language matches the situation. She's becoming a masterful story-teller.

[@keokjinn8005]

Dear Adam, Always have enjoyed all your Angelina Jordan reactions, of course this one included. Appreciate your honest and fresh and insightful comments as well as your love for her. Thank you very much again.

[@colinhuggins268]

Yesterday when we were riding in shopping cart. When everything was great for most of us.

[@jolantashereshaw2477]

Just perfect!!!Her voice heals my soul..

[@avila6435]

Great reaction! She’s unique!! Beautiful! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@gregorygardner9373]

Thanks for another great reaction to another Angelina performance where she takes a well known classic song & magically transforms it into her own. Like most of us - I've heard this song many times - but with Angelina's arrangement & voice, this is the first time I've truly also FELT the melancholy that she delivers. Looking forward to more of your reactions. Highly recommend All of Me, California Dreaming & IMHO 2 of her best: I'm Still Holding Out For You & Wicked Game (Suggest the Sune Amtoft fan video which shows Angelina playing the piano track). Thank you. And may GOD continue to watch over & bless Angelina Jordan.

[@kenvo343]

the quivering rasp in her voice is something to behold. it gives this performance an emotional resonance that most covers lack. I purposely looked for covers of Yesterday by young female artists and I have to admit they are all ordinary compared to Angelina's rendition. I mean, they can sing and sing really well. They tried different rifts and runs, showing their ranges, proving their skills, but they did not succeed in delivering that feeling of longing for a 'yesterday'. In fact, I questioned some of their artistic choices. Like why did you go high there? seems out of place. Angelina's version, on the other hand, delivers what sir Paul wants, and more. a lot more. I listened and actually longed for my own persnal 'yesterday'.

[@fredneecher1746]

The problem with covering a McCartney song is that he is a perfectionist, and every note and cadence is exactly the right one for the song. You can change the style, the singing, the dynamic, but unless you have something new to say you can't change the melody as she did here. The melody IS the song.

[@johnvasi]

Put Angelina together with a classic melancholic song. Even on this song that we’ve heard a thousand times, we listen intently to every line because we’re waiting to hear what she does. She give us her jazz-lite here, and plays with the melody enough to make the song her own. Her voice here and in Billie Jean can best be described as delicious. I think you’re right that she’s turned a corner. We’re getting more of the style that makes Angelina unique, but I believe she will keep moving on musically. She doesn’t stay in one groove or style. What’s next? I’m hoping Angelina goes back to old school blues and covers some Janis Joplin. She could re-invent some of those classics in her own style, but she absolutely has the musical chops to do justice to Janis.

[@mariostylianou7725]

Hi buddy!! Beautifully sanged!! So sad!! She brings new truth to the song!! Pure talent!! Magic!! Liked your reaction!!

[@CarlD70]

Wonderful reaction and comments Adam. You hit on so many great points when it comes to Angelina and her unbelievable talent to take almost any song and make it new, current and makes you feel the song each time. It is a magical power of Angelina, and you are correct, no matter what kind of day your having, Angelina is the cure for it, why I listen to her every single day without fail, always makes my day better. Thank you for supporting Angelina on your channel as always...10 thumbs up Sir. As for the shopping cart....attention shoppers, Superstar in isle 7!!!

[@aliosha667]

I loved your comment as usual ... and not to mention she already did Queens, Elvis, Aretha, Amy, several times ;)

[@annekristineingebretsen6932]

Loved your reaction😍She is brilliant💗

[@barbulrey5178]

Love it. I think she is has” found a place to hide away “ in a shopping cart, a safe place that reminds her of when she was young, “yesterday “. What do you think?

[@davidfulginiti5985]

Thanks so much,🙏

[@jimdonaldson3277]

Wow, Adam - you were hitting on all cylinders with this one. Someone said to me that they consider Angelina to be a great experimenter where most experiments turned out great but a few, less so and I would have to agree with that. I think that she will continue trying new things in her JazzyPop lane in the near term but as a sage reactor once said (after hearing the cover "Stay"), "OK. Alright. We are dealing with a genius". And she, being an experimenter genius, will take her music places that may very well surprise most of her fans. Her style of JazzyPop is unique to her and in that sense, she has created her own genre' and so, there may be more unique genres' on the horizon. This is all opinion of course, and I look forward to all of her future surprises.

[@MusicLover-uy7pc]

It is always amazing how she packs 40 years of experience and emotions into her songs. She is the only person who makes you feel every one of her covers. I love her passion and emotions. Just wonderful.

[@scottjohnson7774]

she likes singing in multi story car parks for the acoustics. she has a lot of short clips on TIKTOK.

[@sybolflowers4202]

Angelina just takes the air we all breathe and makes magic . I heard one a couple of days ago , she was doing a virtual duet with Duffy the song was " Mercy " . I loved it .

[@lengould9262]

"Sometimes ... all she needs is the air that we breathe And to love her ... all we need is the air that we breathe"

[@yves2932]

The next song will probably as much of a surprise as the last ones.

[@VarietyMediaNetwork]

Really great REACTION and a REVIEW as always, my friend @ Adam Straughan👍

[@ronjones1077]

Sorry it took so long to like and subscribe to your channel. Been watching you from your first reaction to Angelina but was never registered for You Tube. Finally bit the bullet and gave up my secret information to another big brother entity. You have always impressed me with your astute observations and clear understanding of how music should work and who are the better at it. I know you were into Aurora before finding AJ and I also think Aurora’s songs are very unique and surreal sounding. Later you started reacting to Dimash who can hit notes only dogs can hear. Again he is unique and very special. My problem besides being over 70 is I can’t listen to more than 1 song from them at a time. Not just them but many others as well. I can listen to Angelina for hours watching reaction after reaction even to the same song. She can brighten my day and sooth my nights. Yes she sings a lot of classics from many long gone great performers but I enjoy most of the newer songs she covers making them understandable and adding warmth and emotion where others just hit every note invented. Anyway thanks for doing a great job and if everyone sounded like Angelin it could very well be boring after a few years, or 10🙉

[@js33412]

These performances in the colored rooms are outside of her Republic contract. They are directed and produced by Angelina's uncle-manager, Michael. She is using her magic Neumann TLM102 microphone which was a twelfth birthday present.

[@DonaldLancon]

Actually, this is the next model up: the TLM 103 (about 50% more expensive than the 102, which was indeed the model she had when she was 12). You can tell them apart by the appearance of the ring just below the grill: the ring of the 102 is bright and shiny, whereas that of the 103 is duller and looks more like the base of the mic, below the ring (assuming it's the silver version of the mic, of course). The ring of the 102 is also narrower, but that's less obvious when you're just looking at a single microphone. The 103 also has visible screws on the ring itself, which the 102 lacks. (In the original video, a screw is barely visible above the knuckle of her index finger.)

[@js33412]

@@DonaldLancon Thanks, I didn't know. When she appeared with the mike when she was 12, I researched it and decided, because of the finish, rings, etc. that it was the 102. I was happy with that one! Maybe this one is not hers? I wonder what preamp, equalizer/mixer, etc. she uses. I notice an echo in this recording, but I think it is natural from the bare rooms. She doesn't need much for that voice!

[@destitute8493]

In my world, the word 'I' has one syllable and it rhymes with 'why'. In the Angelinaverse things are different.

[@dannydoc1969]

Angelinas version is actually almost 30 seconds longer than Paul’s original. Someone posted on a fan site a picture of the RIAA Gold Single 45 RPM award given to Paul, the colors on the label, are those of the room.

[@PhilipKnopp]

Aha! …I knew there was a connection…just like the colors in the “Billy Jean” video…the pervasive colors in MJ’s video were yellow, purple and red…

[@rvega60s]

yes she was sneaky , giving us that hint for why the color .Thanks Adam, always a pleasure to hear your take on Angelina's performances

[@AXZ9340MB]

AJ always lovely.

[@gertwestblad9052]

I only need Angelina every day to forget about yesterday! 🤗 This was the first record I bought and I guess Angelinas records will be the last ones. Hopefully a lot of them.. 😉😊

[@marierodd9451]

Absolutely love Angelina's rendition of this song. So much heart in the song for such a young lady. Your passion for Angelina and her music is so evident. I think it would be AMAZING for the two of you to meet in person... Wow.

[@AdamStraughan]

I’d love that!

[@annc9660]

@@AdamStraughan agree....

[@philipgotthelf642]

To fully understand and appreciate this performance you should reference her Tictok version singing in her favorite garage for natural reverb. Her fans didn’t like her excessive vocal fry, not realizing she was conjuring up this refined version. She is sharing her process with her “Angels.” You should catch her quick take and react to her method of evolving a cover.

[@averteddisasterbarely2545]

Loved the mashup of you and smilyface ! GO ANGELINA JORDAN!!

[@bills5268]

There are 2 rooms left that haven't been seen - a green room and a blue room. My guess is she's got one, maybe two more songs under her belt that haven't dropped yet. I will bet she is covering another iconic song or two, and making them hers. Merry Christmas!

[@yves2932]

Some guys claim to have identified blue colors in her hair in her lates tick tok.

[@boulbon08]

Always a joy to listen to what you have to say about Angelina’s interpretations, Adam ❤️

[@zahrashehni8987]

Thanks Adam for lovely reaction. I am Amazed at how much wisdom you have in the field of music. Loved it.

[@PhilipKnopp]

Melancholy and regret, a story in song, exquisitely performed! 👏🏻👏🏻

[@jean-claudeledanois1247]

What she'll do next🤔🤔.....I really don't know. .and this is the beauty of it...But she is young and I suppose she could have differents periods...like painters have. After all Picasso had is "blue period " before moving on. I quiet sure that she will surprise us again with her vocals style...full of surprise this wonderful young lady.

[@maxwellkenny2679]

Heaven in a Shopping Cart.

[@davidfehlman5150]

Very nicely stated,, I would love to see her do a "Nat King Cole" cover someday,, 👣🌬🌎

[@Nexus8VK]

Terrific reaction! I feel like she’s going to cover this unknown, rarely-mentioned song titled Killing Me Softly (With His Song) one of these days. Possibly very soon. Just a wild guess. :)

[@berniescott4014]

Just want to say thank you Adam,you always bring a fresh perspective when you react.Angelina posted on tiktok 2days ago, a vocal warmup she called it for a studio session.

[@deniseperryman2814]

Angelina was spot on with this song it just makes you feel so relaxed I love ❤️ going into Angelina’s world 🌎 she really helps me so much with my anxiety and panic attacks anyone who suffers like me knows exactly what I mean Angelina is Superhuman I just adore her Love from Denise in Yorkshire England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿👼👼👸🏻👸🏻🦶🦶👏👏👏💕👍🥰👋

[@brucecumming8803]

I'm thinking her sitting in the shopping trolley is a reference to the line "I need a place to hide away". Another great review thanks Adam. I hope Angelina keeps the covers coming, whatever else she does.

[@frankjohansen9364]

Bruce Cummings,I agree with you,Angelina has always been focused on the lyric,so sitting in a shopping trolley must mean, it looks like yesterday when she as a child, like children all over the world ,used these shopping trolleys to hide away from the world, in the safety of their parents or their grandparents ,pushing these trolleys around in the supermarkets.At least it can be a reasonable explanation.

[@mysc0tt1e]

YES to everything you said. I just think it's hilarious no one mentions she is singing from a shopping cart!? LOL!

[@RachelDacusAuthor]

Great reaction! I can't imagine what song Angelina will take on next, but it's sure to surprise us. I like what you said about the soothing quality of her voice. Even in sad songs, listening to her sing uplifts me, even on tough days. Her healing timbre and musicianship is a gift to us.

[@dirkdegraw4165]

You said it exactly as I feel Adam. Thanks for the fantastic reaction!

[@andrewchacone9497]

Adam, you are spot on your comments about how Angelina carriers her voice, with a smooth Jazzy deep tone. Sir Paul McCartney released "YESTERDAY" back in the day 1965, went we both were young! Angelina has taken "Yesterday" out of a time capsule and breathe life back in this classic song, her way !

[@elaineparisi8626]

Yes Yes i have been waiting for another song from AJ, i agree with you of your reaction, i think the differnt colors of the rooms makes me think that AJ is very colorful, she can pick an icon song and turn it the AJ's style, you said once that she was a geinus and she is, i think that she is making a cd with longer versions i really can't wait for her concert next year, beautifully done. Thank you for your great reaction.

[@FlameCold258]

Thank you, Adam 👍😊

[@zweibrucker]

Thanks Adam, great reaction. I don't know where she will go next; however, it's just September but a Christmas collaboration with Michael Bublé would be just brilliant. What do you think? Steve

[@tm13tube]

Do you feel your heart responding? A physical, visceral response.

[@ShanLiB]

I would love for her to do a cover of any Roy Orbison song. There are a couple of songs on Mickey Newbury's "Frisco Mabel Joy" album that would be perfect for her to revive, also.

[@RocklandTheatreco]

Next is jazzy hip hop haha. How about some broadway classics. Loved this very stripped down version of one of the most covered songs ever. She was born unplugged. The golden voice with 1 or 2 instruments. Priceless. Sir Paul should take notice of this young prodigy. Always enjoy your reactions. Thanks.

[@lizlessner829]

The part that I loved the most was AJ sitting in the shopping cart! I mean, who came up with that idea? Of course Angelina was meant to sing this song. It is right up her alley. She sounded different in that the microphone or maybe other equipment that was used...It was awesome though. There are so many beautiful songs from "way back when" she could spend years singing them. I don't know whether to think of her as a "Nightengale" or a "torch singer".....probably both...she is so versatile. Great review with a good question, what or who is her next choice?

[@zombie7857]

Nice react Adam. It was inevitable that Angelina would cover the greatest and easily most covered song of modern times. The original is so embedded in my brain that it took a few listens to stop hearing the 'errors'. Now I can appreciate what Angelina has done with it and agree it is another excellent performance.

[@Pyanfar]

❤❤️❤️❤️👣 Her uncle is her manager. She chooses all of her music herself. As the musicians from I Put A Spell On You called her, she is "the boss". She is going wherever she wants to go. It's a matter of proper promotion in my mind.

[@stefanopratola6314]

Wonderful reaction, Adam, and if you mix all these last records she made with all the Tiktok pieces she gives to us, I'm quite sure that all are recreations in the middle of "studies sessions" for her next album: she cannot stand without singing and she pleased us with such marvels. Before we had her grandma giving us all those little gems, now since she signed with RR she gives us all this. Thank you and see you on next one.

[@antonionoperi2333]

Angelina Jordan in the scene that looks like a Hallmark card all of one color that has been drawn. her being in a a cart representing "Yesterday" throughout the same.😊

[@sandyleewhite]

💗 ***Only Angelina Jordan, can take an amazing iconic song, like Yesterday, from a phenomenal band, like The Beetles, & make it her own*** 💗 ***She truly is a gift, with the rare ability, to reinvent masterpieces, that wake us up, & pay attention, to every note, every word, & every emotion*** 💗 ***GREAT REACTION*** 💗

[@Membwayne]

Angelina is the only singer I can imagine who could do Karen Carpenter's "We've Only Just Begun" and Janice Joplin's "Bobby McGee" and knock both not just out of the park but into orbit.

[@thatgardeninggirl2864]

New Sub here!!! Hello from Tennessee! Love how you close your eyes and listen!!!! Me too! This child can MAKE ANYTHING HER OWN GIVES ME CHILLS!!!!! She goes barefoot bc she met a child w no shoes & gave them to her. She's also the youngest published author in the 🌎

[@keithserafy]

Adam, this has nothing to do with her record label. They have done her 2 originals (Million Miles & 7th Heaven), but she & her uncle/manager, Michael Astar, have put this together, along with the Billie Jean video. These colored rooms are at a studio in LA, she's using her own mic she got for her 12th Birthday, the piano track is a commercial karaoke track & Michael directed & edited the video. Two masterpieces on a minimal budget & all in the family. Although she's not mentioned in the credits, I bet grandma Mery had a hand in this, as well. Republic Records seem to be letting her do her thing on the side. Thanks Republic!!!

[@yves2932]

Fun fact - as other fans pointed out - here she's using the larger and more expensive variant of the mic the used in her home videos.

[@keithserafy]

@@yves2932 Wow, I didn't know that. Thanks! Maybe she got a new mic recently.

[@stewartw7302]

I agree with much of your comment, but dispute you statement that the piano is a karaoke track. Angelina’s version of Yesterday is nearly 30 seconds longer, so that would meaning tinkering with the speed of the backing track, which would not sound right. Like in her Adel cover, I think the backing track has been provided by Republic Records or some other pianist.

[@wajj1842]

@@yves2932 Can't figure how you know that. Looks like the same Neumann 102 she used on earlier videos. Maybe she's upgraded to the 103, which doesn't have the chrome band like the 102, and costs about 50% more. She's not close enough for me to tell like she was in "Stay" etc., which obviously was a 102 with the chrome band. Or maybe it's the TLM 49, which costs more than twice as much as the 102, and is a little larger. Wish we could ask her. Maybe Rusty knows.

[@wajj1842]

Thanks for that great info, Keith. Looks like the family is dabbling in music video production. I wonder if this is part of RR's L.A. Studio? And I think it's great that RR's is giving her a lot a freedom to do her thing.

[@navrozelalkaka8457]

ditto ditto ditto all the way! The greatest song ever written just got better.

[@RobertDeMartin]

Adam, she is so unique and her video's are constructed to transform her into the past . It's almost as if she's been there before. What is also so intriguing is the more you listen to the song, it gets better and better. That's usually the case with Angelina. Why? 'm not sure but I think it has something to do with how authentic she is.

[@henrybeesley6359]

Granted she excelled in this one and others, don't count her as a one trick pony. She has covered Mylie Cyrus, Whitney, Lana Del Rey. That is a vast spectrum of technique. I seriously hope we get new and interesting things. She posted a picture of Will I Am and herself. Could something be in the works?

[@49buzzy]

In the near term, I would like to hear Angelina cover Wild Horses by the Stones and God Only Knows by Brian Wilson.

[@AdamStraughan]

Great choices!

[@lydiabentley3413]

Totally brilliant

[@DonaldLancon]

Of course, there's no telling whether the next release from Angelina will be a cover or an original, but if it's a cover, there's a good chance it'll be a song we've heard her sing a bit of already, given that she released short clips of "All I Ask", "Heal the World", and "Yesterday" (the first 2 on Instagram and the last on TikTok) before she released the full covers of those. ("Billie Jean" is a notable exception to this pattern - AFAIK, that one came out of nowhere.) But even if she sticks to the pattern, that doesn't narrow down the choices as much as you might think, since she's posted clips of around 20 different songs so far this year. (!)

[@grykarlsen5054]

I liked this so much better than the Billy Jean version!👍🏻😊 I really hope she’s coming with some original soon… Thanks for a good reaction as usual😁💖
