AJ MONDAYS!! Reaction to Angelina Jordan - What a Difference a Day Makes

[@ArabManReacts]

Habibati! If you haven't checked it out yet, here's the link to the Retrospective we did about Angelina Jordan, this was a labor of love, we'd be super happy if you checked it out and shared your thoughts.

[@delmamekenya5286]

Habibi! it is official now! her EP album will be released this Friday July 21. She posted on her social media the announcement

[@jonathanfielding7387]

That's a great version... I prefer the other 8 year old version though, mostly cause she singing in her homeland and so comfortable outdoors and in the middle literally in the middle of 1000's of people, she just closes her eyes and sways gently back and forth as she sings.

[@jerryfoust3860]

she was introduced as 9

[@jim-rohe]

I subscribed to your channel and really like your reactions to Angelina. I do think you are going to have to do more than one every Monday or you'll never catch up. She cranks them out faster than that. Enjoyed this my friend. Peace.

[@andyschnell58]

Angelina just posted on her Instagram that her EP, "Old Enough" will be released on July 21.

Thanks Andy, it's on my calendar!

Thx Andy 🙏

[@RobertDeMartin]

You are so right. It is the absolute truth, if anyone has anything going on in their life which is 'pulling them down a little' they need to listen to Angelina sing for them. It is a guarantee when the song is over they will feel much differently. If they are hearing her for the first time they won't know exactly what happened but they will put two and two together and figure out it had something to do with listening to Angelina sing. The love in her voice will touch their hearts and they may actually start to cry. But, it's a good cry and they will know whatever was on their minds they will be able to face up to it with hope and understand love will help them through any situation. They may not understand it at first but soon after they will realize theirs hearts had been touched by a Messenger of Love in the form of a very young lady who has a desire in life to sing for people so they can feel joy, hope and the love in her heart. At the same time she inspires them to become kinder, more caring and loving than they have ever been before in their lives. It's what she does. One only needs to listen to her sing. And, if they ask themselves the question, "Who is she?" they should read some stories about her and, you guessed it, here come the tears again. For all of us who have discovered her one of the greatest moments we enjoy in life is when we see someone (could be a total stranger) discover her because we know their life will change. That's what she does.

Another stellar reaction Boudy.....yes just listen to her music and your day and life will be better...have been doing that for almost 7 years now....not a day goes by without Angelina in it....better than "an Apple a day keeps the doctor away" as the saying goes. Angelina will do that for you as well. Cheers. 🥰🥰🥰🥰

Thanks for the reaction to our angel Angelina…she is simply the best…❤

[@flying-spaghetti2]

She was 9 here (in Singapore). The 8 yo version was in Norway, Allsang pa Grensen.

[@StephanieHealy-wh9cn]

Great reaction. I have been watching her videos for about 9 months now. I had not seen this one before. I've seen another one where she is a little younger singing this song at a festival - I think it was right after she won Norways Got Talent. But I really like this one. Have a great day!

[@SteveAckerman-ly3qg]

Another young angel - I only heard her for the 1st time 5 months ago! So many of her fans were lucky enough, and often mention, 'been listening to her since NGT' ... or since AGT, etc. I wish wish wish I had found her sooner, but have been so happy the last 5 months of the deep dive into her music and learning so much about her, her fans, "Reactors" (that was new, for me), jazz, soul, etc. What a ride! Plan to continue for many years to come.

[@richardduffy3115]

She's 9 here. Nice reaction!!

[@2211gk]

She was 9 here I think... She has covered this song few times and every time it was different... There is one version where she is 8, right after winning NGT, singing this in sn outdoors concert in Norway I think, that one is my favorite, an absolute blast from the past... she is less playfull with her vocals in that one - going more with her natural voice and its absolutely adorable..... Even if you decide not to do a reaction video on it, You should still check it out and listen.... You will not regret!

[@ClandOp]

David Foster -- musical producer with 16 Grammys -- said that AJ's rendition of What a Difference was the most astonishing performance he had ever seen from a child.

[@Owen_S.]

Great reaction, as always. I have to think that even the great Dinah Washington herself would be absolutely charmed by Angelina's performance. Eight years old. That's insanity, but the best sort of insanity. For me, Angelina's voice reigns supreme, at any age. See you next Monday! Cheers. 👼

[@oscarpicon5254]

Angelina sings as if she had had many loves and heartbreaks at only 8 years old, AJ's soul has many vivid lives. thank you Arab man sdos Argentina 🇦🇷 .

[@lightbearer7552]

Thank you Arab Man love your reactions to AJ , she brings so much joy to me and the world even if the world doesn't know it yet, love her voice listen to her every spare moment , she has my heart and it is a wonderful thing to know we have so much more AJ to enjoy and love💗

[@hassejohansson8506]

I do not want to mess up your AJ playlist but you will love her "Unchained melody". Just a hint. No one of to days "stars" have that Raw skills and soul as she has had from the start. At least from 7 years old, and she is born with it. She just keep going better and better, I understand that ther´s a lot of work to. I just hope she will come to Sweden soon so I can se her live.

[@srikanthsrinivas1777]

She's done several versions of this song, by the way..And first off, I love your reactions!!! They are heartfelt, and make me say "see???? That's what I mean!!!" . Just a lil plug - ok a couple of plus...it may be on yor list, and if you are going by age progression, may come up... One is a 10 year old version of My Funny Valentine performed on Feb 14 2016, making her 10.... and two songs she performed opening for Alan Walker at his concert in Norway - Sing Me to Sleep and faded.. Waiting for next Monday...!!!

[@pattylisk6170]

I love to watch your reactions because you are so knowledgeable of music and also because you are a really good man ❤️

[@ClaudioMarcucci7756]

Thanks for another beautiful reaction Boudy. When Angelina is so identified with her source of inspiration, she leaves me absolutely amazed ... how is it possible that a little girl of 9 years old is so incredibly emotional and talented as a professional singer to completely involve and fascinate the her audience. She is simply fantastic, when she closes her eyes really seems to be in contact with Dinah Washington.💛🧡❤

[@katherandefy]

❤😮 Oh oh oh!!!! Annouced on her fanverse YT and Instagram accounts officially wooooohoo! Her EP drops on July21st!!! 🎉🎉

[@capstan50g]

I love this song, and I adore how Angelina covers it. There's so much nuance in the phrasing and little technical touches she brings to it. Her voice is like a bottomless pool of truth, which I believe she channels from somewhere outside this universe. Great reaction as always, Boudy. You know, this song would be a great cover for you, too! Happy days, my friend!

[@arkinazimet4123]

Angelina's songs back when she was a kid around Norway's got talent ... like " fly me to the moon" . " Autumn leaves" "i'm feeling good" and lots of Amy winehouse's songs will take your soul out of you more than what she does today!

[@BAfan-tt9zl]

@john-toregundersen2655I think it’s also that the tones and inflections sound subtle and natural- it’s the simplicity that lets the beauty shine through and connect to your soul. Today, I haven’t heard a lot of the new ones, but what I’ve heard sound somewhat more “ affected” - using a lot of obvious techniques ( LOTS of scratchiness… pronouncing words in an unnatural way, as singers often do…) that make them sound more manufactured by the singer instead of a simple beautiful presentation of the song. Experimentation is good - I just hope Angelina continues to let her natural voice present The music. It’s so much MORE than enough!!

[@emk4a7]

Schließe deine Augen und genieße. Unglaublich wie so ein kleines Mädchen solche Gefühle übertragen kann. Diese Stimme ist einfach unglaublich

She is a beautiful singer and jazz is her medium ❤️🤗🎶🎶🎶🎶

[@54FILMBUFFify]

i have watched all your reactions so far to Angelina. You give great reactions to her. Angelina is as far as i am concerned going to be one of the greatest female singers ever. Not only does she write her own songs, but she arranges them, as she did for I put a spell on you. and when she sings she makes the song even better than the original, but without disrespecting the original artist. i heard in one reaction that she has created a new genre of music, you have Pop, R & B, Jazz, Country etc now she has given us the AJ genre a mix of all genres in one. i don't think any other female artist can come close to doing what AJ can. i hope and i am 67 yrs old, that i will being seeing her receive Grammys, Oscars, all and every music award their is because she deserves them even now. You have a lot to watch yet enjoy and keep reacting.

[@leechap3]

This is my favourite Angelina performance, I think it is often overlooked because of the popularity of her earlier outdoor rendition. When she sings "I'm a part of you dear" I get goosebumps every time. This is the one to show people who have never heard Angelina.

[@dojoswitzer]

Your list grows by 5 more this Friday, when AJ’s new EP releases!!!

[@williambilljones2684]

I think she must be channeling some of the greats from the era of jazz and the blues. I hear Billy Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald, Etta James. It's just like a bowl of Chicken Soup when you have a bad cold. She is so soothing and real; beyond great.

[@fredneecher1746]

She was actually 9 here, but I think this is even better than the Allsang Pa Grensen performance she gave the year before - the first after her win on Norway's Got Talent (I think!). Her voice will cure any ill. It's so smooth, and she sounds exactly like a 25-30 year old professional. How come she's just a kid? Something's not right here.

[@jonathanfielding7387]

Vocally the performance may be better, but the Allsang Pa Grensen performance, she swayed and sang with her Eye's closed, and that has to count for something? :)

[@SteveAckerman-ly3qg]

@@jonathanfielding7387 I prefer the Allsang version, partly because of her stage presence, the outdoor setting, the backup singers, the fact that I think it was her first ever live performance (outside of NGT), and of course, her incredible voice and musicality.

9 years on stage in front of many people he opens his mouth and transports you to another era with incredible beauty of voice, timbre, wonderful vibrato, I say this because there are good singers around who, having vibrato, do it everywhere. Angelina no, she only puts it exactly where it goes, quality of a great and consummate professional, a wonderful gift of music, thanks Arab Man, excellent review, good life and good music... Massimo

[@RachelDacusAuthor]

I've been listening to Angelina's magical, healing voice for three years now, and you managed to find one video I hadn't seen! Thank you so much. I agree, her voice has a healing, uplifting effect. I do bring myself to an AJ session as I would to a meditation. Big picture. So true.

[@johnroache32]

Yes! Thank you for doing this. I believe her best rendition. Thank you again😇🌺

[@davidtouma4878]

Thank you for another great reaction video. After winning Norway Got Talent, Angelina was in very high demand. In an interview, her mother said that they had to reject more than 90% of the request for Angelina to participate in many events. However Angelina was very busy around this time. She travelled to Brazil around the middle of Nov. 2015 as part of the Norwegian delegation that was headed by Crown Prince Haakon. She performed in front of him and others at the opening ceremony of the new manufacturing facility of the Norwegian company Jotun. She also performed on a Brazilian TV show that was hosted by Fatima Bernardes. From there she flew to Doha, Qatar to attend and perform at the 3rd Ajyal Youth Film Festival that was held between Nov 29-Dec 4. About 500 youth between the ages of 8-21 screen different films and pick winners in different categories. Although Angelina performed at this festival, I’m not sure if she participated as a judge screening any films. Then she flew to Singapore to perform on Dec 8 at the opening ceremonies of the new headquarters of Mediacorp. The event that you reacted to was at their state of the art 1500 seat theatre. It was by invitation only and was attended by Singapore Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong who earlier welcomed Angelia to Singapore. kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZqrZoZZujpicapo Angelina’s dress was designed by Mediacorp award winning celebrity designer Annie Shua. Our Barefoot Princess was and still a busy bee putting out beautiful music as well as excelling at her school studies.

[@BAfan-tt9zl]

I love your reactions- full of emotions! In this one, I loved that you let it play through because it sets such a mood! But I missed your comments on her different vocal techniques that explain why her renditions are so amazing. You may feel that you’ve said it all before, but it doesn’t get old!! Some may be new listeners, and have never heard your assessments, and those of us who listen a lot don’t get tired of hearing you explain why the little techniques she intuitively ( or after her growing experience) uses in her songs are so amazing for a singer - especially of her age. We non- singers just know it’s pleasing- but not how difficult they are to do! Love your comments- keep them coming!

[@markkleckner3060]

Awesome and God Bless!

[@dianedove1000]

Another reactor has started showing two videos of her singing the same song at different ages. It’s great! That might whittle your list down somewhat. However, I think you need to schedule Angelina much more often than once a week, if only because she’s so wonderful!

In this one she was actually already late 9. She sang it at 8.5 right after NGT in Allsang Pa Grensen, I think your thumbnail was from that one. It's was one of her favorite songs at earlier years, and it was on her EP of covers she published in 2016, and you can stream it e.g., on Spotify. Here's a playlist of her doing it at eight different occasions from age 8 to 12: m.kzbin.info/aero/PLddfS789jBCrUKkZgiDXAOOyKA6OkWFlt
