Angelina Jordan Reaction | "Bad Valentine" Jazz Version | She Tops Herself AGAIN!

[@tedtomoyasu8438]

This jazzy version is the BEST version of Bad Valentine! ❤❤❤❤❤

[@LonghopeBro-ju6jl]

AJ announced yesterday that it was at 11 on the iTunes top jazz songs. Today it's at 9. I bought my copy, so let's keep it going even higher. It's only $0.99.

[@sulatlalaki]

I agree!!

[@victorvinas6497]

This is masterclass jazz at its best. Jazz will always be in Angelina's heart.

[@jeffthebeeguy]

Angelina = Angel-in-a song.😇

[@charlespeterson7502]

I absolutely love this version.

[@rusminnoer632]

This version is the best.

[@PhilipKnopp]

Nothing touches heart and soul more than Angelina's reinterpretation of her own original! This vocal spans decades and recombines them in vocals from a dozen great singers from the 1930's to the present!

[@kenhall5551]

How to take a great tune and turn it into a Jazz masterpiece. Stunning.

[@PatrickWilliams-ou9hu]

I was blown away when i heard this she is actually singing words while scatting brilliant I hope Angelina is going to get credit for this version

[@keithserafy]

Hands down this is the best version of this song & it's not even close. This is ready made for a movie sound track, IMO. Stunningly beautiful from the Queen of Jazz.

[@ashleyweinshilboum5977]

This song gives me the chills and moves me! WOW

[@GrandmaEllen]

It is doing very well on the jazz rankings.

[@steinarhatlen2622]

By the time I watched your reaction here, I've listened to this jazzy version about 132 times. It is the best version for me. She is about to go really big. Her career in 2024 has gone in only one direction. Up.

[@rogercarriere4756]

Musical genius 🎼🎶

[@rayhowson2720]

Whenever we think Angelina has reached a peak, she goes a step higher. This is pure vocal artistry at work. Sublime, nothing better. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@leechap3]

This is right up my alley. I love the restraint, the jazzy improvisations, the scatty line, everything about it.

[@sharonrdbl2343]

No 1 on Norway s ITune charts today!❤❤Love from Norway❤❤❤

[@maryellengastelo6847]

She leaves me speechless, i would love a jazz album. Thank you Chris.

[@BellBell-t1r]

For me also this is my absolute favourite version of Angelina's Bad Valentine. ❤ from a 🇨🇦 Grammy

[@christian53050]

The AJ Toby Gadd combo looks very, very promising, great things expected.

[@JMWexperience]

Truly incredible and amazing work by Angelina and Toby!

[@HusemR]

This is the proof, she is the best.

[@jk_forever6874]

She is only 18 years old and possesses an extreme level already. It's not a question of if she'll become a world star, but WHEN... Absolutely amazing what she proves with this version of "Bad Valentine"...

[@claudest-gelais8456]

Damn she's good! She's so good she could re-invent the wheel if she wanted to💖💖💖

[@stevenparkes9597]

We is her music not played on the radio She is so good and not a sellout! Pound per pound best all around singer in the world

[@sdpelo]

Like you Chris, the Hotel Cafe version was my favorite. The more I listen to this jazz version, the more I like it. It is currently #9 on iTunes jazz top 100.

[@Owen_S.]

We all know Angelina is trying to hook a younger audience with her highly produced numbers, and that's awesome; I'm really cheering for her. But - boy - this right here is nectar of the gods for her longstanding fans. Instant classic! Thanks Chris. 👼

[@robertfennell5232]

The song is going to be a classic Angelina's and Toby's version here is genius. I hope they continue to work together. Your emotional reaction is needed after hearing this. I am 78 and this song puts tears in my eyes.

[@DeanCapaul]

Man!!! For me, that version hits all the right buttons. Thanks for this review Chris. I’ve already listened to the song about 20 times today. I can’t get enough of this Jazzy version. I just love it. What a fabulous jazz voice. She can sing anything. Thanks again.

[@philgaringer9065]

not only does she re-imagine classic and hit songs into her own style, she even re-imagines her own songs into something completely new and refreshing.

[@gerardadegroof]

Its the best version ❤

[@berithenback3590]

❤ shes song is so good, she talkes to my feelings ❤

[@adriaanrijllart5213]

I love this version ❤. Angelina is magnificent ❤❤❤

[@silversurfer8278]

OK, I'm 100% sure that this is the killer arrangement and version of this song. The others are good to superb, but this one is just exceptional. What is needed now is some serious investment into a great video which also tells the story of the song; and the planning of an international tour. This could be the breakthrough for Angelina, because it should win over any jazz lovers who have yet to learn about her, and because it is so unlike anything in today's charts that it SHINES like a beacon. We need to start requesting this on the radio.

[@RobertDeMartin]

Chris, whenever you hear raves about an Angelina song you know going in it's going to be fantastic. And that's exactly what this was. If she was already popularized as a top vocal superstar this song would immediately go to the top of the charts! Hopefully this vocal masterpiece by Angelina will receive the recognition it truly deserves. And, at the same time Angelina will receive the attention of all those who haven't discovered her yet.

[@ekfux]

Chris, IMHO this is the best jazz song of this century. She is amazing. This is a masterpiece.

[@brianreilly8661]

Totally agree it's new level no other singer has her beautiful jazzy toned❤

[@joedeleon2017]

Chris, this song/ voice can not be duplicated. It's so sophisticated. Joey

[@Latoh1]

Yes yes, yes!!!!You are right!!!Absolutely!!!!

[@PatrickWilliams-ou9hu]

all Angeles play this and play this on spotify

[@johnwriter267]

This is simply an incredible performance. When I first heard AJs interpretation of Billie Holiday's "Gloomy Sunday" I was blown away. I was in tears... What's she going to be like in 10 years? Now we know... I'm so glad to see her go back to her roots. I know, for her career, she has to pursue pop. But, this is where she belongs. This is so good on so many levels... She's one of a kind.👣👣💕

[@philgaringer9065]

Her absolute best song by far in my humble opinion. The world needs an entire album full of songs re-imagined in this jazz style. multi-platinum, grammy-award-winning guaranteed.

[@johanwass9709]

Håller helt med dig😊

[@stephenevans6055]

Great Reaction Chris , i have this on repeat ,

[@Bustefaen]

This isn’t singing. It is a vocal godess summoning the angels. She can do almost anything, but jazz is Angelina’s home.

[@keithfultz3293]

This is best version for me and the AJ I am hoping to hear more of.

[@paulhnielsen2708]

She is getting better. And i thought she was the best❤️

[@victorariasarrue]

This is the best song jazz !!!!!!

[@demelltowers8332]

Toby is a GENIUS!

[@francescogalesso1880]

I believe in this version it was Angelina who said to Toby, "follow me."

[@randegelo3506]

Chris, I think this version sounds like it's from a 1950's jazz club, and the record should be on a 78rpm shellac disc. (That's the highest compliment, in my opinion). Angelina has raised the bar so high I don't think anyone else will beat it.

[@robertfennell5232]

It has been on itunes now at #9 on 100 jazz songs

[@debs42444]

Love this Jazz version 😎❤, but that’s my background.✌🏻🎸

[@robertbiron]

I am excited with this song because now I can know which radio stations' I should submit this song to for request. 😎❤❤❤🌹🎶👣😇🇨🇦

[@fredt7518]

This arrangement is much harmonically richer than the original (and even with some big differences) and AJ has more room to be herself = an exceptional jazz singer !!!

[@boz352]

I remember how surprised I was when I first heard this lovely lady sing. It happened again when i heared this latest 'jazzy' version of "Bad Valentine". Everything we love about Angelina comes out in this beautiful and, I suspect, final version of Bad Valentine. I loved every version, especially that first introduction in the LA cafe with Toby. But they kept changing it up with each new venue. And they were ALL wonderful with subtle differences. Unril now. No more subtleties, we now have a "jazzy" version. Here she seems to be paying homage to those wonderful jazz singers from the past, and in the process showing off all those gorgeous colors in her magical voice and resulting tweaks to the melody which you hear from the piano. You're just mesmerized by how crazy good this rendition is. I loved it. But as you say, Main street, maybe not so much...not yet, anyway.

[@SteveAckerman-ly3qg]

This performance is just stunning. Not only the smoky sultry jazzed up rendition, but she manages to take one of her own songs and really shift the emotions being conveyed. In the first 3 it was more about being strong and explaining why the other person just doesn't measure up and deserve her love. Here, it's such a different feeling - this could be Sad Valentine, I think much more about self-doubt and remorse for what she has done. A-Aron does get into how she does this musically. And agree with you - she's a genius, and her collaboration with Toby is showing signs of being a match made in heaven ... I hope it is long-lived. Who knows what additional brilliance is going to come out of it.

[@BigAngieFan808]

Great points Steve. With that first listen I was more focused on the jazz techniques themselves but with further listenings I’m seeing that there is also that other level of how she uses those techniques to change the message and mood of the song so much. A big part of her genius is how her singing is all in service of the song, making the song the best it can be. She takes so many just average songs and makes them great. And of course this song is great to begin with!

[@rogerwolstenholme2710]

Chris, I'm writing this before watching your reaction.... I'm predicting it will blow your mind.. it did mine.... hold on tight mate. !!!... lol.

[@zeuso.1947]

Good luck to anyone trying to cover this.

[@CornelisTijssen]

She is really sublieme, as I says so Manny times, she is the best singer there is world wide!👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@giuseppeurna1986]

Fenomenale.

[@dojoswitzer]

She truly is the Queen!

[@ScionDraak]

I agree, Chris. She's a standalone, outstanding genius.

[@tcc2021]

Sounds like a movie sound track to me...great.

[@douglasdennett4583]

"Fine music doesn't have an expiration date.!!!" - Author Unknown [ Ms. Angelina Jordan Angel Fan's Family Globally ] Thank U

[@brucecumming8803]

So good to have great Jazz diva on the scene again.

[@tommonsen965]

Agree Chris ... i'm not into Jazz much but this one is just WOW ❤❤❤

[@MavisLLobo]

I love all versions ❤❤

[@robertpalmer9831]

You can just sense the anguish in her heart when she penned this. The tears are hard to hold back. While the other versions convey a sense of empowerment, this version shows that it came with a price.❤

[@chaddy-me-boy8299]

Robert, there’s some logic as to why she would come to Pittsburgh, say at the Stage AE? 2400 seats inside. Pittsburgh is centrally located from a lot of cities, Chicago, Cinn, Cleve, phila, nyc, Baltimore, D.C. Canada, etc. 🤞

[@robertpalmer9831]

@@chaddy-me-boy8299 We can only wish. Carnegie Music Hall in Oakland would be a great venue for her as well. I love hearing her in beautiful intimate settings.

[@CarmelaTornambe]

I like this version better it brings out her jaz voice.

[@flea10x6]

There are a series of shorts to this version as silhouette as if in a club.

[@Suevee911]

I was so excited & was waiting for your reaction. What a great version!🤟💕

[@hans-georgschroter7887]

Commercial 😮 already Nr one in the iTunes DL charts in Norway ✌️😎

[@kevingood4644]

Feels to me like she made this for her angels..less commercial, more emotional..so much anguish..I love it 🙏

[@aryachow]

This is the best version. Actually this is now #9 on the iTunes top 100 Jazz songs. She is even scatting in this. I have just contacted and sent a link to this song to a local Jazz radio station. Hope they will play it.❤❤👣❤❤

[@davehenderson7644]

Speechless🥲!

So war, 15 Jahre Musik Erfahrung komprimiert in einem Song ❤️ Das Beste was sie je gemacht hat 🥳

[@ridgemanron]

The vocal gymnastics she can apply so effortlessly will always mesmerize anyone listening.

[@BigAngieFan808]

And it’s never “see what I can do” gymnastics a la Christina Aguilera. Always to elevate the song..

[@andyschnell58]

Thanks Chris for your reaction and being a cheerleader, encouraging all angels to do what they can to help promote Angelina. One easy way, is to post a message on jazz livestreams on KZbin. CAUTION, don't post too often as it is considered spam. The chat on some jazz livestreams moves very slowly so the message you post stays visible for a long time. Just search jazz livestream in the KZbin search and locate the ones with a live chat and then post a friendly invite to check out "Bad Valentine" by Angelina Jordan.

[@evalight9895]

This is the one !

[@garyswee9061]

Lol! I would have been surprised if you had been able to wait for a full video. This is so good! It hits so differently than the others. Sultry, jazzy, cool, and so many other adjectives (the same problem with all of AJ's performances- not enough descriptive words). She is flying high!!

[@suyapakloth-jorgensen1760]

My favorite the FIRST BUT THIS IS MY NOW. SHE IS THE BEST !!,❤❤❤❤❤

[@saturmartinezpasero48]

Es pura soul. Lo vive !!!! Y nos hace vibrar. Madre mía

[@TroyArchAngel]

This reminds me of the style she displayed on My Funny Valentine 16, but even at a higher level now 2 years later. My Funny Valentine 16 was my favourite performance by her ever now it's this one for sure. This is really a masterpiece vocal display.

[@DarienLovesJazz]

I thought the exact same thing when I first heard it. Masterclass vocals on My Funny Valentine just got even better!!!

[@ronraskind]

Currently, this version of Bad Valentine on Piano Diaries Is tracking at number 9 on iTunes top 100 jazz tunes! Lady Gaga and Frank Sinatra along with Louis Armstrong encompass the top seven or eight. Without them, Angelina is in the top top position! As it is, she is living with the legends.

[@davidfulginiti5985]

Chris , that’s the one thanks

[@clones365]

I am 100% convinced this will be in a movie! Reminds me of a seen in a mafia movie where they are in a jazz lounge like when she was in Lilliehammer, but she won't just be in the background, she will be the star of the scene...and the song will win an Oscar;)

[@flea10x6]

Note that Toby released this on His KITE label. He’d said they’d recorded 6-8 songs but her label haded released any of them. Earlier I’d seen this Jazzy version was #11 on iTunes and #8 on Spotify. Those are the kind of numbers the radio stations et al. Look at.

[@CarlD70]

Thanks Chris...not sure how you can pick out any particular part you like...this is a masterpiece from start to finish and everything in between...best song (hard to say this) from Angelina I have ever heard....her Jazz roots are shining like "stars in the darkest night". Cheers.

[@lynettepascua4730]

She could make two albums of all of her songs one pop and one jazz and I would buy both for what ever mood I was in.

[@-oliver-oberhausengermany4428]

i love my headphone so much for "this" ! voice. goosebumps !! thanks Chris ☺, many greetings to Hawaii On itunes top 100 songs in norway they are on number one !!! I think this is an appropriate placement 😃

[@Latoh1]

THE BEST!!!!!!ABSOLUTELY!!!!STUNNING!!!!!!!! OVER MAGICAL!!!!!!!!!!

[@brigritte2091]

this is what i was waiting for such a long time

[@rogerandrus1806]

In this arrangement she did to her own song what she has done when covering other artists - she "Angelina'd" it! Breathtaking!

[@mvw5721]

AJ covering AJ. Exquisite. That scat was perfection.

[@pontusosterlin1966]

This version takes my breath away. And it gets better the more you hear it. All those details and the emotions she can evoke in us… unbelievable 🥲 Great reaction video, Chris 🙏

[@vtbarber843]

❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉Aj🎉😅love you

[@ysteindrge8394]

Beuteful version by Angelina ❤

[@ShanLiB]

When I heard this a couple of days ago I was so shocked I had to play it over and over many times. I could not really get my mind around it because the previous versions had set my expectations. This is so far beyond what I could have imagined it was like my concept of reality seemed to shift and leave me looking for something to grab onto. Your comments about the marketability of this version may be right, because the world's not fair and I can accept that. But, not really. It's REALLY not fair. After watching your reaction I had to return to the source and play it about 5 times, all the way through. That happens whenever I see a reaction (like Pontus' reaction) to it. I can't get enough. She's passed through into another dimension and dragged me into a world I don't recognize. I really love it, though.

[@Latoh1]

Brilliant piano!!! MAGICAL!!!!!!

[@rickrack4812]

I finally appreciate this song.

[@christinatsakiroudi7989]
