Correction. AGT champions was not live. It was recorded in October of 2019. Therefore Angelina was 13 through the whole show. This you can check out to verify . Aside from this I have to say that Angelina is not a singer. Almost anyone can sing What she is, is a musical artist. Painting beautiful pictures with her soulful beautiful voice. A Michelangelo of music. Priceless

Alan, I believe if you look closely at Sarah, she is wiping a tear from the cheek of Juliette. Like you I believe that shows a special insight into the family dynamics, a view that shows a precious and special level of empathy and love Sarah has for her children. I think this shows how Angelina is able to have an extraordinary level of fame and accomplishment while maintaining an attitude of grace and humility. What an incredible young lady!

Alan, what an absolute sensational presentation by you! This was probably the 501st time I've seen her sing Bohemian Rhapsody and you actually made me cry. And, don't lie, I could tell your voice was beginning to crack a little but you kept it together. To me, when Simon hugged Angelina, that was a very, very special moment. I wonder if Simon, in his personal life, has listened to this performance. More than once? Thanks, Alan. I know it was a struggle to get this to appear on you tube. I will now go out of my house and do my usual things which includes introducing Angelina to someone who doesn't know her. Again, thank you and be well.

I case someone is looking for the dress and wondering - it's been sold out some time ago. Wonderful comment. Angelina later said the golden buzzer moment felt to her like everything went to slo-mo. I grew to appreciate Howies comment, it really was that performance that had the crucial halo impact. I think even winning the show wouldn't have added much on top of that. It more than doubled her fanbase in a matter of months and probably helped a lot to get the kind of conditions for her record deal that she wanted. I just realized Juliet is the same age Angelina won Norways got Talent. A wonderful way to get a second chance to experience this moment of her sister winning the hearts. Reminds me of Michael Jackson who stated one of the triggers for his farewell tour "This is it" was to have his kids experience him live at least one last time. BTW I have some doubt Simon would not be involved in discussions about the lineup for the Champions franchise. So he should be somewhat been aware of her. His comment blends perfectly with her insisting on NGT, "I'm only a normal girl". Regarding the golden buzzer it may be interesting to note that long term followers of the franchise are stating every judge is assigned one day where he/she's allowed to award it.

I have to admit that watching Angelina and her family is a bittersweet experience for me because I love what I see but I'm also looking at what I never had. I feel this a lot when listening to Angelina; so much love yet so much loss of connection to it. Perhaps that is why I can't get enough of Angelina Jordan.
@keithserafy3 жыл бұрын
Alan, I really enjoyed this & agreed with most of everything you said except that the judges knew nothing about her except that she won NGT in 2014. We now know from Michael's interview, that Simon had been trying to get Angelina on AGT for a couple of years, but they said no because of the standard AGT contract. I'm sure Simon or his people had seen many of her YT videos, they would be stupid not to have researched her.. He wanted her so bad, AGT relented & gave her a special contract that relinquished all control over her if she would sing. They needed her for the ratings & she needed them for exposure to the American market. Heidi had seen some Angelina videos & had made comments about how amazing she was before Angelina was on the show. I think that's why she was the last judge, every one else got their say before she got to hit the buzzer. I would be very surprised if Alecia speaks Norwegian, that was her prepared comment, IMO. I don't know whether Howie knew anything about her previously. I'm sorry to say most of these shows are fake. The only genuine parts were the performance, the audience response and Angelina's & her family's reactions. Keep up the good work & I'll be watching.

Angelina's "I've been waiting (since I was THREE) to sing for Simon" always struck me. I hope others in earlier comments noted that this contest was filmed in October 2019. Broadcast Jan 2020... that's the "4 days before her birthday." I've always enjoyed Angelina's tonal change in her last stanza, almost achieved a bell-like, carillon-piano tone. Just amazing. Alan, you wisely noted "stone face" Simon early on but it's him that 'explodes first' when Heidi slams the buzzer down. And his closing comment about Angeline not knowing how good she is. This is from someone who's singular contribution to this TV genre is knowing how good someone is. HIGHEST PRAISE, therefore.

Thanks! Another good one! You pulled it together nicely. A couple things I thought about as well. Angelina is one of the few contestants/winners who has walked on with a wave to acknowledge the crowd. She is already a seasoned stage performer and presents herself as such. Also, despite what Simon says at the end, I do think she knows how good she is, but that is not enough for Angelina. I feel that she strives to be better, in her own mind, all the time. I liked your discussion throughout of her family because it is their love, support, and understanding that has allowed this young girl to follow a dream that many would be dissuaded from. Admiration and respect to them, for sure! This performance started me on my Angelina journey. At least 200, probably closer to 300 listens to this performance alone and every one is a remarkable reminder of how special she is. Glad you finally beat the blockers.

There's a thing called "Dunning-Kruger effect" where highly competent people (almost) always underestimate their abilities and the least competent people (almost) always overestimate their abilities. I believe she knows that she capable of getting much, much better and judges herself as, "not there yet". Judging from her progress since she won NGT, I don't think any of us, including Angelina, know just how great she can/will become. Her modesty is one her most attractive personality features.

What a splendid, thorough and informative reaction. Really good appreciation of what's going on. Just a couple of points. The show was aired 4 days before her 14th birthday but was filmed much earlier. And I honestly don't believe the judges didn't know anything about her except that she'd won NGT. Heidi greeted her with great familiarity, the other one spoke to her in Norwegian (I don't think she speaks Norwegian), and they'd have been remiss in never having seen a video of her in the previous 6 years. It doesn't make sense, considering. Besides we know that Simon had been after her since NGT. Sight unseen? I think not.

This was a great video and obviously cost you a great deal of time, thank you! If you listen very closely, as the judges are sitting down after Angelina's performance, you can hear Simon say to Heidi, "She's got the buzzer"...it's almost lost in Terry Crew's comments. So he's giving Heidi the ok to give the buzzer. Back at that time, there was a lot of discussion about the manipulation, etc. According to persons who were there, what was shown on tv was not the order that the participants actually appeared. The show has used the shot of the three girls in several other performances. When Marcelito Pomoy returned to Manila from AGT-C, he revealed that the singers were required to provide a list of ten songs from which Simon would choose what their second performance would be, so they had to be ready for any one of the ten. When you review her second performance, note her reaction when Simon says, "That was an unusual choice you made..." Her body language throughout her second performance is strikingly different from this one. I believe she's discovered just what a manipulative person Simon is and the disappointment from discovering this about someone that she had so much respect for for so many years is quite evident.

These revelations quite certainly put Marcelito in violation of his AGT contract, but it sounded like he flat didn't care. I remember him saying that only the first song was his choice and the semifinal song would never have been his choice. Remember that Simon has famously stopped contestants in mid-act and insisted that they sing a different song which he names.

Watch the entire video again. By this time Simon's true character had been revealed. It was decided they would not sign with Simon's label so they would not be going into the top five and continuing on the show [yes, it is rigged] . His line "That was an unusual choice you made..." is actually referring to Not Signing with him! [allot of "secret" music industry double meanings going on here] Everything the judges are saying is double talk. Simon says others would not do what you have done [or something like that] Simon and Howie have an 'at length' conversation about how "dated" that song is. [no doubt referring to contract negotiations where they would have been pushing for her to do more modern songs] [it sure makes since it could be about that] The whole comment segment was full of coded talk directly to Angelina. [she's already a pro and this is part of the music and entertainment industry. -public communications with "inside information" having them mean more to the people talking than to the public listening] Listen as Howie [basically] "foretells" of the "super fans" not voting her through. He says something like they should vote for you but we have super fans and nobody knows what they are going to do. "We'll see what happens" The fix was in. Everyone primary to the show knows it [including Angelina, and all four judges] It's no wonder the light in her eye has dimed by this time. This was a learning experience she had to go through [about the industry she is about to be really deeply involved in] She sings I didn't sign up WITH you at the beginning of the GBYBR song. The camera shows Simon right after briefly. [I believe it is a choice from a list given to them or in her case, -since already she had special treatment- she may have just had to submit the song for approval. Which is what I think happened] She says her goodbye to the show and the yellow brick road they were offering and once again we see her wisdom grow rapidly. She is following her destiny. She has some say in it as she grows with it. We are all lucky she is in this world right now. Wishing her the best. [watch the whole thing again. performance and comments and it's sad to see her have to learn the business like this, but it was sad when she sang of the losses in her life too] She will only grow and become stronger. Hope it's OK I commented on your comment. Just felt I had to. Got to love Angelina!

Aside from Angelina's amazing talent, I think that she is most extraordinary, especially for a 14 year old, because she seems to be completely self-aware without being at all self-absorbed. She appears to know that she is an extraordinary artist, but seems to be completely unpretentious. I can't think of a single other young singer who is less likely of being accused of having any of the negative qualities associated with being called a "diva". In fact, I think it is a very short list of all teen-agers who have such well-developed character. Ed

To share, the first time l heard her performance of Bohemian Rhapsody, l felt as if an angel was sent down to us from above. To me, this was a historic moment in the world of music. I was then compelled to make the following comment on that vid: "...She is a true blessing. I cannot get enough of this angel. I have never been so moved by ANY other performer in my 59 years on this earth as I have with this beautiful Angelina. No words have been invented to describe this angel. In fact, allow me to invent one here and now. Angelinated - The progressive inner and outer sensation of pure tearful joy caused by an experience that leaves one overwhelmed, bewhildered, speechless, and in mental paralysis; followed by the need to allow one's mind time to process what had just occurred and, in turn, share it with others."

Good job, as usual, Alan......A couple of corrections: She didn't borrow the curtsy from Amy; it's common in Nordic culture. Also, at 19:32, when you talk about how ecstatic she was because she knew she gave a wonderful performance, you're mistaken. She has never, ever, reacted in that manner after a performance. Her natural, true reaction was when she curtsied earlier. The shot (where you've put "she knows she nailed it" on the screen) was an inserted edit; it was also partly used after Simon's "amazing performance" comment. I'm not sure where it's from originally, but I suspect it was captured at the golden buzzer moment.

Congrats Alan! Very insightful analysis of the clips you presented and their background, as well as Angelina's outstanding performance. Very unique and original approach, loved it! One very intelligent remark from you is that Angelina KNEW exactly how to "cater" to the American public who usually watches these shows. They do expect the belting, the runs and she gave them exactly that, sparingly, letting them know she can do them. One thing I'm not sure about is when you said she takes the curtsy from Amy because she has done that since she was 7 years old in most of her performances ;) I'll be waiting for your next videos :)

Hi Alan. I wasn't making comments when this reaction first aired but I have found myself coming back to it from time to time. For me, this was one of the great reaction videos of Angelina because of your focus on her humbleness and her close-knit family. One of the things that I've always felt about this (and I'm sure that you can relate because of your unique reaction techniques) is that one never knows what sort of reaction one may get when you create outside of the box. With this version Angelina is taking one of the most iconic songs in history and with the sad death of Freddy Mercury, some may take exception to essentially redoing the song. I know after Angelina sang "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road" that Simon talks about her taking a risk. Besides the fact that she sang this song in the most difficult way imaginable, and for all these other reasons that I have mentioned above, I have always felt that this was a much bigger risk. Which brings to light another one of Angelina's amazing qualities - she intuitively knows what's good and what's appropriate and all that's left is for her to perform in the best way that she knows how. Thank you for all that you do. I will always remember what you have done with this reaction.

Hi Jim. First of all, thanks for your comment. It provoked me to watch my video again- I hadn't seen it in a long time. I have to be honest with you and tell you that there is a cringe factor when I watch my old videos. The acoustics aren't that good, the subtitles have not been edited and much else is raw. But what I do remember about this video is that one of my secondary purposes with this video was to show that anything- a song, a KZbin video, a walk- can be completely transformed purely by attention to detail.

I really love this meticulously walkthrough of this important event in AJ's life. The more people learns about her and her family the more we love her. And they truely lead the way in a time we need love, respect and family. I laughed a little in the last few seconds when Simon hugged her and she was the same hight or even slightly taller then him. And she know how good she is and that's enough. But she dont need to say it. And thats how you stay humble

From what I've heard AGT wanted Angelina to preform on the show because they knew she would be good for ratings. Angelina wanted to sing for Simon and her Uncle wanted the exposure, but they wouldn't agree to the regular contractual agreements that contestants are expected to sign, so she was never really in consideration to win.

Thank you Alan, another fascinating review. I'm am, of course, in the 2nd group - wonderfully addicted to Angelina. Regarding the three girls, that you talked about in the audience, the same clip was used in one of Angelina's subsequent two performances (I can't remember which), so this may have been stock footage that AGT sometimes uses. Then again it could have been legit footage from her first performance.

Alan papier, oh I will only speak for myself in this first part. I was getting tired of this show & some others because you could predict just about the camera showing, "oh we just happened to catch, ex. those 3 girls", now maybe these types of talent shows do so, after all certain things work. Ahhh, well yes you understand this, as you pointed out, @ 15;52 her belting, because yes, and imo unfortunately that is expected. NOW, speaking for myself along I'm sure of others, all the minutes, seconds that whether are not are really spontaneous, you made this come alive once again. Your very very astute with such depth of compassion and connecting to the universal love we all have and this is what you presented to us ~ I didn't know the family was there, didn't know the mom still shared her love with each of her daughters in such a momen...well, i'm going to stop here, because I won't get a golden buzzer, more of a boot off the stage, so to speak. I'm just ovewhelmed by you and this is such a unique channel. I saw th video um..oh yes "Unchained Melody", thank you from a new sub who cannot wait to dive in or no swoop up into the universe that is infinite and one never knows what spirit one will meet. ~ take care ~💫♾💫

@jonbruton35573 жыл бұрын
OK. I'm 16 minutes 45 sec in and let's discuss. [I just can't hold back on what I will say] First you said that No One of the judges have an idea who Angelina is outside the fact that she won NGT. I really doubt that is the case. First we know that the producers of this special "winners edition" AGT courted Angelina and wanted her on the show very badly. So much so that they made a special contract just for Angelina expressly stating she was Not tied to any contracts for her participation [unlike the usual contracts the others signed] and that Angelina would retain the rights to the songs she performed on the show [and again would have no obligation to sign to Simon's label for her participation in any elements of the show]. So we can be pretty sure Simon knew who she was and of her talent at the very least. And since we know the show IS Rigged likely more than just Simon knew Of Her [even more than that], knew of her talent more than just from the introduction. [it is very likely, in my opinion, that the "golden buzzer" was planned ahead of time] [and naturally went to Hidey to do] [these judges are all music industry professionals they know what they are doing] The Golden buzzer means she goes straight to live shows and so does not compete in any elimination shows. [surely she would have eliminated any against her, but there's more of a reason than that] If the general viewing public saw Angelina over and over again [through the elimination rounds] it would have been very hard to declare that she not only would not win but would not be in the top five! The show wanted her for the ratings but did not want her if she was not going to sign with Simon's label and make him more rich. As it turns out they negotiated to an impasse before she sang Yellow Brick Road. Angelina Was NOT Going to sign a record deal with that show [Simon's record label]. She changed just one word in Yellow Brick Road and that was I didn't sign up for you to I didn't sign up WITH you. As soon as she sings that line [early in the song] the camera switches to show Simon briefly [an inside joke? A legitimate look to see a possible reaction? or coincidence? -Not] She also sang a farewell to Oslo on that TV station roof when leaving for an extended stay in the States a couple years earlier with every time we say goodbye. Yes, she puts meaning in her songs because they Have meaning for her! And she does legitimately relate the songs as she feels we should feel them, but also as she really does feel them. [one way is to relate them to current events] When she was told she would not go further in the competition if she was not willing to sign to Simon's label she sang her goodbye to that yellow brick road she was being offered. [and the loud note in that song was for the Song, Not the audience] [it's all about the money to Simon. It's all about the art to Angelina. Don't mix them up!] Now back to her belting out just that once in the Boh Rap song she absolutely [in my opinion] Did NOT do it just for the "American audience". It was absolutely needed and perfectly placed for the feeling she was going for in that song! This was right after "I don't want to die" then "I sometimes wish I'd never been born at all". That is ANGUISH! [plus the song is originally a loud elaborate arrangement] To do the song justice this embellishment was absolutely needed and was not anything Extra for her at all! It was what she always does. She sings the song to relate what she will have us feel. Most reactors [first time hearing this] that is when they get the chills, the goose bumps. EVERYONE [bar maybe a dead 1%] gets goose bumps the first time they hear this song. Her ability to take it from soft to loud [for just that briefest of moments] to soft again, to relate those lyrics as she meant them for us to hear them is what she does! It wasn't out of place for her to sing that note loudly. It was perfectly HER! You see she is passing from Discovering her voice [by covering so many artists and songs she admires] to having a voice of her own! That "belt", if you will, was Her Voice! Not out of the norm for her and placed there for no good reason other than the audience she is singing for. [that would be so out of character for her. She doesn't sing for an audience or TO and audience she allows the audience to join her! Always has] That was Angelina singing exactly how she felt the song needed to be sung and if you think that part of her thinking of how the song needed to be sung was to "impress" and American, or even worldwide audience you don't know her as well as you think you do. [no offence intended. It's just a phrase. But it fits here for the reasons I've given] She sings the songs for us to share with her interpretation, she has never sung to try to impress us! [And she never will, I dare say] I know you are an absolute true fan so that is why I comment so thoroughly. As a fellow fan. She is growing into her own voice now. You will be hearing things "new" for you [we all will be] and they will be Her now with her Own voice. Singing as she interprets the songs but through Her eyes now only slightly influenced by all those who she has learned from. The slide up to the loud note was absolutely needed by her interpretation of this song and I refuse to believe it was to "show off" for the judges or an audience. It Made the song! It reminded us of the masterpiece it is and was in it's original version. Without the slide up to the f from an o [I heard one vocal coach describe it] the song would not have done the original the justice it deserves and would not have fully expressed the anguish of that line in the song. You said "she just does this to show she can do it but this is Not what makes her so incredibly special". I disagree 100%. This interpretation. [this arrangement that she made up] Including, and especially because she knows when to let go and when to hold back IS what makes her so Incredible! She did Not do that note "just..to show she can do it" She did that note because HER SONG called for it. And she is a genius. Love this forum. Keep it up. Most we can do is share her. She is the one bringing us together to do that. Worldwide needed! Thanks again for what you do. It is appreciated. Talk about destined to be world famous. When Three she Did tell her mom I want to sing for him the first time she saw Simon on TV. Her mom gently said you are too young maybe when you are older. Destiny fulfilled. Approval of Simon achieved. AGT no longer needed in her life. Next step the world.
@thealanpapier3 жыл бұрын
You are right. I stand corrected. There are many AJ super fans out there who know infinitely more than I do. I put you into that category. To address your specific points- 1 In the clip that I saw, an AGT staff member was only telling the judges that she won NGT in 2014. I wrongfully assumed that was all they knew about her. What you explain makes much more sense and feels right. 2 I agree with you. Angelina does not compromise her Art. First and foremost, she sings the song as she feels it and as it needs to be sung. If it also appeals to her audience, that's just icing on the cake. I try to make my videos rich and complex. Inevitably, there will be gaps in my 'research' resulting in (little, I hope) inaccuracies. I welcome feedback and consider it part of my learning curve
