Angelina Jordan & Toby Gad - BAD VALENTINE (Piano Diaries) | Fan Request |

[@billpaine6241]

Easily my favorite version of this song, and arguably my favorite Angelina recording of all.

[@Nevelepride]

This is a pure masterpiece! She’s definitely a master of soulful and emotional performances!👌🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@anthonyzuniga3951]

Angelina is a class of her own. She doesn't need a grammy to prove how good she is. She was born for this and now she has arrived Thank You, Jesus!! We Love her so much. 😢😢😅

[@annc9660]

SO POWERFUL......BEAUTIFUL........GREAT REACTION.

[@RobertDeMartin]

Others may try but she is already at the point in her career whereby no one can sing like her with such soulfulness and the magic of jazz allowing her to give us a variety of sound that we can barely believe what we are listening to! This arrangement in every way was SENSATIONAL !!!!

[@PhilipKnopp]

Totally, totally agree...this kind of rendition demonstrates the best of her abilities!

[@brianreilly8661]

Greatest on planet ❤

[@josephstimpfl4594]

Just astonishing. And you hear her talk about the song...she can't be 18. I guess she is just this special person we all have seen since she was seven.

[@thomaslarsonyt4429]

Toby's piano weaving in and out of Angelina's insane jazz voice in this is just the Cherry on top of an INCREDIBLE vocal Masterpiece

[@osovagabundo1]

Perfectly couched and supported lyrics and breaks. So gentle for her notes to land on after she expertly carved deep emotions into each note with her coloratura instincts

[@ClandOp]

AJ slowing everything down, with a piano and a violin, smoky and gritty. Nothing better.

[@leechap3]

The sparse instrumentation fits perfectly, it allows her wonderful vocals to take center stage.

[@patrickchauharjasingh7164]

It would be very difficult, if not impossible, to find another artist who can sing the same song fifty times and give you fifty different versions, every one uniquely beautiful. With this version of Bad Valentine, she takes what was already a masterpiece and, impossibly, MAKES IT EVEN BETTER!! Kudos also to Toby for providing the perfect musical accompaniment to complete the almost dreamy yet powerful atmosphere which encompasses this brilliant performance.

[@Steve1016]

Same song, 3 different performances and each one gives a completely different feel. I love it. Something about this young lady and her beautiful voice that touches my soul like no one else. She's amazing.

[@ewelina8b]

Angelina just need piano and good mic. Absolutely masterpiece. ❤❤❤ Thanks Lucie.

[@lesgray8709]

Maybe we can't see her perform, but we can certainly feel it! The melancholy, the remorse, the tearful cries - how can we not cry along with her...

[@Bronxlenny3591]

Thank you Lucie for an awesome reaction. It's a masterpiece for the ages...

[@billeaton9562]

The second half of this song just gets more and more jazzy and hits so hard. Love watching you react great reaction thanks.

[@PatrickWilliams-ou9hu]

to me not only is this the best song Angelina has sung it the best song I have ever heard from anybody and I have never heard anyone scat lyrics

[@keithserafy]

She said this is her break-up song, so apparently it does relate to her experience. The original version is a power, defiant, pop version. This is a restrained, emotional jazz version involving regret that even though she isn't belting, is even more powerful. You are right Lucie, this is a Masterpiece. Apparently there is a video in the works, so we will be able to see her singing this in the near future. I can't wait because seeing her singing adds so much to the performance, IMO.

[@comartse]

This is Angelina at her highest level, even though she will still improve. I prefer this version to the others. Thank you, LucieV, for your pleasant reaction.

[@tonyrivera2917]

thank you Lucy!! great reaction

[@giuseppeurna1986]

Una sola parola Fenomeno.

[@lightbearer7552]

Love this what a masterpiece, to experience her live must be an out of body experience ,which I haven't yet, when you see her she is mesmerising you can't take your eyes off her even Jimmy Z just gets a quick glance there is no one else that I want to see , hear or feel as feeling her is everything she radiates such beautiful energy she is addictive and the world has to experience her, our Goddess of Music. 💜👣😇

[@brianreilly8661]

It's crazy how she can change this song I love this version shows of her raspy jazzy voice masterpiece great reaction ❤

[@robertsilva631]

Having seen and heard Angelina live in concert - her live performances are even better than the studio versions or recorded videos. However , this recorded Jazz version of Bad Valentine comes close.

[@CarlD70]

Thanks Lucie. This is simply a masterclass masterpiece of music from the Angel. Cheers.

[@rajluthra8585]

Beautiful rendition, enjoyed your reaction

[@Koma_Texeld]

I like Angelina as a singer and even more when she is accompanied by soft instrumentation, like in this "piano diaries" version. In these cases is when I feel Angelina herself. Nice analysis LucieV, best to you and your viewers 👋

[@tomfassoulis8596]

Hi, Singer, guitarist, and an admirer of Angelina now for about 5 yrs. I’ve heard thousands of singers in my 78 yrs, and I have to say this is the best female vocalist I’ve ever heard. This version just beautifies my soul! Thankyou for honest and astute reactions… Bye, Tom

[@097534]

Best version

[@clones365]

A movie could be created just to have her perform this song in a scene;)

[@kyleFincher]

❤❤❤Love Angelina❤❤❤

[@poolhallshark]

❤❤❤❤❤

[@bengtskytte8789]

I love your reaction. Take care.

[@jeffthebeeguy]

This is a masterpiece at all levels. How do you make 3 or 4 versions of your own song---make them all feel different, one totally different and they are each at such a high level. I guess you get Angelina Jordan.

[@shodanrich3317]

Wow, youre quite the fave AJ reactor Lucy. Looking great in black. My wish would be for an AJ JAZZ album with this song as the lead. She could knock out a jazz album in no time. Great reaction. God bless.

[@silversurfer8278]

Hi Lucie, great reaction! Normally I prefer Angelina's live performances over the studio versions - but this performance is one of the exceptions. Aside from the fact that she sings this better than any other performance, the piano and strings are so perfectly played and balanced that they become an integral part of the delivery. This is what you get from Angelina and Toby, when the time and care is taken to polish the nascent jewel - a brilliant diamond cut. It's worthy of being the lead track on her next album.

[@wildwood3031]

yep that's the version for me

[@peterroberts6361]

I stumbled upon her talent whilst looking for “ gloomy sunday” by Billy Holiday. Hearing her sing that at 7,,,it immediately convinced me she has arrived in this world in some special way with abilities that reach us all . 💜 her voice makes you feel that this world could be a better place 💜

[@boz352]

I want to use so many more words than simply "gorgeous". Yes, this was a master piece, but history says she will have many more. What better motivation do I need to keep on keeping on.

[@DeanCapaul]

Man! I can’t get enough of it. It’s her best song ever. Spectacular! Stunning! Masterpiece!

[@cm0355]

Thanks a lot for the reaction to our angel Angelina...She is simply the best...👏👍

[@johnvasi]

I have thought for a long time that no one could cover Angelina. I was wrong. Angelina can cover Angelina and make the song her own-just like she’s done with so many great singers. Jazz is Angelina’s natural space, and it’s completely obvious here. I’d say this is her best, but I’ve said that many times before. Actually, I said it about her first version of Bad Valentine.

[@sharonroyal1410]

This is gorgeous ❤!

[@gerardadegroof]

The best version i like them all this is the winner

[@ClaudioMarcucci7756]

Lucie thanks for the beautiful reaction. Angelina has literally shocked me, I love her voice and I am more and more in awe of her unstoppable musical evolution, I would never have expected that at her age she had already reached such a stratospheric level of vocal perfection. This is truly a beautiful song perfectly arranged for her voices (so many!), both in the first blues version and in this later jazz version, but what she creates in that melancholic and sad version is indescribable and absolutely astonishing, also for the apparent ease with which she does it, in reality the instrumental accompaniment is little more than a simple pleasant decoration, her voice alone is enough to reproduce the emotional effect of a whole orchestra. She is a truly eclectic and extraordinary artist, I understand well why Toby is enraptured by her talent, being able to collaborate with a singer like her leaves a boundless space for musical imagination, you probably can't even imagine what vocal wonders she can create. Her creativity is simply enchanting and astonishing. 💛🧡❤

[@aryachow]

Thank you for taking my request. I especially like the part " you should have been on fire" when she was practically scating. ❤❤👣❤❤

[@charlespeterson7502]

A masterpiece

[@trondarildnyvold5039]

This version is just fantastic! She is a great performer of this kind of music! 😊❤

[@tadeostodullo4587]

😀😀😀😀😀

[@beachbumseaglass]

I love your reactions Lucie. You're so beautiful and expressive. This song gives me chills even after probably 30 times hearing it. I like that door behind you. It looks really old. 👍🏻❤️

[@robertsilva631]

Contrary to what you might think - Angelina and Toby Gad wrote Bad Valentine when Angelina was 16 and yes - she is the Bad Valentine - she has indicated that this is her breakup song.

[@kerrythomas6220]

I believe these are the feelings Jordan had when she originally wrote the lyrics and Toby turned it into a pop song to reach a larger audience.

[@larrypifer1103]

Poem For Ivan and Angelina, the angel with invisible wings. In a city of stars and endless dreams, Ivan strummed the chords, weaving sonic streams. Angelina's voice, a melody unfurled, A symphony of wonder in this world. Together they danced on music's grand stage, Her voice, his guitar, together they engaged. Invisible wings, her notes took flight, Ivan watched in awe of the angelic sight. For every chord struck, a story told, Of a young songstress, bold and gold. In the heart of the city, under the glow of the stars, Angelina's voice rose, reaching for Mars. The streets were hushed, the palm trees swayed, As her melody danced, in the night it stayed. Ivan knew then, with every strum, That music's power was second to none. With Angelina, the angel he found, Invisible wings lifted them from the ground. So here's to the duo, with talent so rare, In the city of angels, a most heavenly pair. Their music, a legacy, forever will ring, For Ivan and Angelina, the angel with invisible wings.

[@TheBlaster54]

Lucie, I ❤❤❤ this stupendous rendition the most of all of the different versions of this song. This song better get a grammy. This a stunning master work by our Angelina.

[@brianreilly8661]

Grammy yes song of the year

[@mvw5721]

the scat...oh, the scat

[@eTraxx]

Hey Lucie .. looking forward to this reaction and .. please forgive me if I am a bit forward .. but darn .. you clean up well! :) 3:18 .. you don't have to prefer live over studio .. or vice versa .. like your kids .. enjoy both. This was co-written by Angelina and Toby .. who is a muti-grammy award winner. Did you see where Angelina, Toby and Scott from PTX are working on something?

[@Joe-o8f]

I'd love to see a video with Toby sitting in the corner of a night club and Angelina on stage dressed like a million bucks crooning this amazing song.! 😢

[@ScionDraak]

Beautiful reaction, beautiful Lucy. (Eyeshadow killing it. Fits you so much!) This slowed down, sad, almost crying jazz version is even more insane than the already insane "standard" version.

[@darenbyers4291]

As others have mentioned this was a heartfelt breakup song ! Angelina wrote when she was 16. Amagine that, her gift to the world is going to keep on giving for a very long time. As I think Angelina mentioned a year or 2 ago she had written over a hundred. Just saying fasten your seatbelts. I dare to guess how many hits she will make in her career, but I for one are looking forward to every single new song!

[@stevenhambek846]

Getting close to 20,”hits” already. Buckle up people. They are all hits to me. I’ll patiently wait for the public to hear her and fall in love with her.❤❤❤

[@CarlosCastillo-ue9cz]

[@kerrythomas6220]

By the end of the song, you can hear a cry in her vocals for emotional effect, and man, does it work!

[@Pyanfar]

Hey there! Missed you on some recent reactions on other channels. I was worried that you might not be ok. I was lucky to be able to her LA concert where she sang this song much closer to the pop version, she just killed it. The whole concert was fabulous. Best concert I have ever been to.

[@navrozelalkaka8457]

[@charlesallison146]

I get what you're saying about her life performances just think at her recent concert in LA if it was recorded with good equipment It would have been phenomenal !!!!

[@buza1300]

😎💙👍

[@pjg58x]

I knew you would love this. A little background on the song: The original pop version was actually recorded with Toby Gad back in 2022 when Angelina was 16. This was at the time that she was recording songs for what became her Old Enough EP. She also recorded 7 other songs with Toby at the time. However when an EP was released summer last year instead of an album, some songs had to remain unreleased and that included all the songs she recorded with Toby. Fast forward to May of this year, Angelina and Toby performed the song live at the Hotel Cafe in LA. It was the first time we had heard the song and assumed it was brand new. Toby announced that the song would be released “soon”. I believe that you reacted to this live version. Last month on the day of her LA concert, Bad Valentine was finally released after 2 years. Toby confirmed that it was the same vocals that Angelina recorded two years ago. A few weeks ago Toby released a video of the live performance from the LA concert. Last week this slowed down, jazzy version was released. This was probably recorded recently, maybe this past summer. You may also want to check out the original version that was finally released last month. The two versions have a totally different feel which makes them almost seem like different songs.

[@robertgieseler1220]

Definitely my favorite version (can't help it) -- layer upon layer upon layer...🙂🤎 Thank you LucieV for your beautiful reaction. Yes, character, and a masterpiece indeed. Artistry in the literal sense of that word -- and, tell me, how often does that actually happen? All the very best from Germany

"SHE IS"

[@Pyanfar]

❤️❤️❤️❤️👣 Have you listened to the other versions? All different and all fantastic. From the pre release version, the LA concert version, the just released 16 year old pop recording, and now this wonderful version. If this young woman can sing anything poorly I haven't heard it.

[@lucievreacts]

Yes, this was third version I reacted to.

[@Pyanfar]

@lucievreacts Well, I have to look for those then. I loved the version that I was fortunate enough to have heard live in LA, but I really wish she had sung the version that she and Toby did prior to the concert and the release of these two studio versions. I think that my least favorite version is the pop studio version. Often with Angelina, my favorite thing is whatever I heard most recently. Isn't she great! I can't get enough of this young woman's singing.
