Arab Man Reacts to Angelina Jordan - It's Now or Never (Allsang på Grensen 2017)

[@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.

[@fleur5397]

Sorry bro, but this song is from Italy. Peace.

kzbin.info/www/bejne/d4C8hoOGe897b7ssi=GC8wo6RsvNUoV3Mz i love AJ, but i think il Volo is better.

[@LindaAnn1]

I love that you just get the love for Angelina.

[@tom56ism]

Brilliant reaction. The best analysis I have ever heard of this special young woman Angelina Jordan and all the qualities and maturity she possesses.

[@robinmorrow9023]

And in her precious bare feet, as usual ! Angelina is a talent that only comes around once in a lifetime.....sooo glad it was during mine!

[@navrozelalkaka8457]

UNREAL is right! Love all your reactions Arab man, especially this one.

[@boz352]

You really seem to understand. Angelina, the person, is who we love, she just happens to be a most extraordinary and wonderful singer to boot. She shows this in all her performances, her humble, loving and compassionate nature. Our world needs more Angelinas! Thank you for taking this young lady into your heart.

[@TheRumbleBunny]

Nice, you are right that she respects the music and her work is really reflective of that.

[@annea9874]

I think AJ literally breathes music in it’s purist form. That is why she seems to connect to every song

[@Sweetpea4575]

“We want her to succeed and break all the records because of who she is.” You absolutely “get” Angelina and our adoration for her. It’s not only her extraordinary talent, but also her intentions and her spirit.

[@TheBlaster54]

Angelina was also taught to embrace being genuine and humble. These beautiful aspects of her personality are a huge reason why we embrace her and love her so much.

[@cm0355]

Thanks for the reaction to our angel Angelina….she’s simply the best…❤

[@way2deep100]

Angelina understood her remit, so left the vocal acrobatics in a box for another day. Allsang effectively means singalong and it's probably a safe bet that her passion for singing had previously placed her amongst the audience several times in her 11 years. She was clearly delighted and completely unfazed by this time taking centre stage and her audience seemed visibly proud of their globetrotting National Treasure just 3 months since she opened for Norah Jones at the Muse in City Festival in Korea. What none of them realise, possibly not even Angelina, is that she will be off to London inside a year having been invited by Quincy Jones to open his 85th birthday concert.

[@rmcc42]

Elvis was my #1 for almost 60 years (1955- 2014) and all that time I never dreamed that someone (especially a little girl) could or would one day take his place! No one could ever sing any song he had done equal to or better than he did and especially not 6 or 7 of his songs! But I also never dreamed there would one day be a young Norwegian girl who would have the most beautiful voice I had ever heard; more talent and vocal ability, and more understanding of how a certain song should be performed than anyone I had ever heard before!! Elvis is still the "KING of Music" but Angelina is now the "QUEEN OF MUSIC"! And one day soon I believe the whole world of music will recognize her as the best vocalist ever!

[@Tdj1414]

You’re one of my favorite reactors to Angelina. It’s incredible how you get it! You speak about her talent attributes and I’m like, yes! That’s it! You mail it! You talk about what matters and really deliver on the specifics of her immense abilities. She is so humble. I was blown away with her new EP. Can’t get enough. Thanks for your reactions!

[@bojanalukic8515]

In the Serbian language, there is a saying "the bigger the circle of knowledge, the bigger the circle of ignorance" - in the sense that the more you know, the more you are aware of what you don't know yet. I believe that Angelina, in her talent and knowledge that she gathered consciously and intuitively from birth, has remained curiously staring into the vast world of music to this day. Because that's the goal, that journey.

[@RichardBourne]

Beautiful! May I quote you?

[@bojanalukic8515]

@@RichardBourne Yes, of course😊

[@RichardBourne]

@@bojanalukic8515 thumbs up.

[@RobertDeMartin]

One of my favorites of all time from Angelina! I love it when they take the shot of the audience and that one distinguished woman who looks like she just came out of her office to watch and listen to Angelina. She has a look on her face that says it all. I saw you react to it so you know exactly the woman I 'm talking about. "Only Angelina." "Only Angelina." Love is in the air.

[@robertpalmer9831]

You are so right. It is nice to see a good person win for a change. Take care ❤

[@michaelrogers7426]

That is a glorious moment in time with a performance to perfection as you said. The depth of her voice is on display, and she never resents the audience. She loves instead. She is such a beautiful human being. She said in a recent webcast that she wants to show “unconditional love.” I do not know anyone like her.

[@rickrack4812]

Hello !!!! Always great to see the joy on your face, that she brings to all.

[@ClaudioMarcucci7756]

Great reaction. Boudy, you are right, it is not possible to love Angelina's voice without also loving her personal world, made of respect, empathy, simplicity and love.💛🧡❤

[@williamdunphe-bh2pu]

Great reaction great reaction great reaction sorry repeating myself I just can't help myself 😔 she is the g.o.a.t. thank you wild bill

[@RachelDacusAuthor]

We want Angelina to succeed because what she gives through music is pure love. She really is this phenomenal human being with a giving heart and a historic talent. I'm so glad she was born in Norway, into a place and family with values that support her. Thanks for another great reaction! This performance is one of my very favorites of hers, for all the reasons you mentioned.

[@bills5268]

Everything she performed at ages 10 and 11 were perfection. This is one of my favorites of Angelina at 11. Another great reaction Boudy!

[@RichardBourne]

For those of us that lived through the Era that you spoke of, this is a memory transporter. Sisters that couldn't keep their eye off of him and the man who changed the course of a entire music genre. And this beautiful child is helping our generation relive long loss experiences and introducing several new generations to this great music. Several words that need to be emphasized: Substance, connectedness and respect, it's connectedness that I wish to spin. I'm proposing a challenge to all of Mr. Boustany viewers, subscribers and Patreons, with six degrees of separations, we know 100 of thousands of people. Share this channel with your circle, spread the word. This man needs to do what does full time. Music wins, we win. Rb

[@anaivette6136]

You cannot describe Angelina better. Unfortunately this days who is on the top are singing songs with no meaning, auto tune all kind of computerized music and here we have this little girl singing along with the crowd. We are so proud of our barefoot princess. Stay grounded no matter where that take you.

[@mangatitiful]

Boudy - how we love your lovely thoughts SO much. Her loveliness is lovingly contagious - I'd thought I was okay - but I know I'm improving day by day! J, 81 yr old, been a teacher, from NZ.

[@hans-georgschroter7887]

Angelina hits our souls and her music brings people together in happiness 💞

[@annc9660]

Your reaction, your insight, is amazing and awesome......you really are getting to know ours and yours, Angelina.

[@SuperLiorr]

It was the first song I heard by Angelina because I used to listen to Elvis all the time and suddenly this video popped up and I couldn't believe what my ears were hearing and certainly not what my eyes were seeing and since then not a day goes by without me hearing her for the last five or six years words can't describe What she brings us...🦶🦶👑🗣🎙🎷

[@galaxynbla066]

Omg! Angelina can sing anything and She made Elvis proud of her renditions of his song. She can emulate songs of Amy Winehouse,Billy Holiday, Patsy Cline, Adele, Elvis you name it and made them her own. Love her.

[@RobertDeMartin]

Angie does a great job with this classic. My friend, I wanted to take this opportunity to wish you well and please be careful in these troubling times. You are one fine gentleman and I trust you will take care.

[@rickrack4812]

Her tonal flow here is like a tropical evening island breeze.

[@ClandOp]

Thanks, Boudy, for another great AJ reaction.

[@theoxley]

Look at her cover of "Something's Got a Hold of Me". She'll take you to church. She performed it the same day as, It's Now or Never.

[@tomrogers1305]

Okay, just to put things in perspective, this is a TV station sponsored sing-along. She is one of many performers this day. At this point she is certainly a featured star in Norway. But the show is not just about her.

[@paulwagner9303]

This fact is often not clear to many people. It would be crazy to gather 10,000 people to hear a song or two. And every artist present knew it was a sing-along show and acted accordingly. If you make a fuss of yourself instead of giving the audience a chance to interact, you won't be invited back. The amazing thing is that this kid (11yo) knows that as well as any other artist - she knows exactly the roles of solo singer (=herself), choir/backup singers and band/orchestra and how to work together to reach the audience entertain ("I feel like a 12yo only when I look on my passport" - that's not bragging, it's just the way it is).

[@tomcollins9805]

She is so humble. Her family are very special. She sings from her heart. ❤❤

[@MissLagimbelle]

Creo que tenía solo 11 años😊, increíble talento, es mágica esta niña.

[@grykarlsen5054]

Thank you so much again dear. It must be something in your water too❤ cause youre all that also😊 Love from Norway❤

[@christophersmith2793]

Absolutely wonderful performance from 11 years old Angelina, Norways National Treasure, great reaction thanks 🙏

[@jackieheald5522]

Great reaction! Thank you 🙏

[@capstan50g]

Elvis comes alive again. It's wonderful to see all the people enjoying Angelina's gift together. Great reaction, Boudy!

[@CarlD70]

You pretty much said it all Boudy....thanks for understanding this young lady.

[@jackpearson1110]

Another perfect song and performance. One of the few daytime, outside songs I love. I want to see dark Angelina. A dark, smaller, more intimate inside venue. Like her videos in the antique store or live studio settings. But I understand those in Norway probably dream of warm outside concerts.

[@poolhallshark]

Thanks for another great reaction to Angelina, my friend. She was 11years old here 🙂 As for her age, here is an easy trick for you, and it ONLY requires you to remember her year of birth, namely 2006. As her birthday happens to be on the 10th day of the year, you only have a 9 days' chance to get her age wrong as long as you know which year the performance took place. Like in this one, 2017. In 2017 she was 11 years old, except for the 9 first days, when she was still 10. EASY, right ?? 😅 Much love from Norway ♥♥♥♥♥

[@rw716]

Pool, we didn't see you at Tee's Live today! Someone even mentioned your name and we thought you were there. Oh well! Take care my friend!

[@ScionDraak]

i wanted to write him the same :D - actually, i think that each time i see a reactor calculating/struggeling/guessing her age ;) - But, on the other hand ... it doesnt matter. As her age doesnt matter. She was born a genius, including ageless wisdom and understanding of life&being - so the age of her body doesnt matter - as the soul is ageless anyways.

Thank you for another good reaction. Every monday I wait for your new reaction to a song by Angelina Jordan and I'm amazed as always. It's always refreshing to listen to you. Thanks for that from Berlin, Germany.

[@BAfan-tt9zl]

So much fun to see all the little girls with their flower hair pieces on, like Angelina! You know that because of her, these kids are hearing, and learning, such great music that they probably would’ve never heard, or been been interested in! Now, she’s mentoring them with her music and her character- changing the world!! (Arab Man, LOVE your reactions, explanations, and appreciation of Angelina! It’s SO SATISFYING to hear you, along with her music!! Thank you!! God bless you!!

[@zeuso.1947]

The silky richness of Angelina's lower register really shines bright here.

[@Coybib10]

Hi Abdallah....prefect reaction to AJ...she is all you said she is and more......her reaction at the end of the song - and what a great song - speaks volumes about the kind of person she is...love you reactions especially to Angelina....respect from Ireland 🇮🇪

[@carolindeverdier]

Great reaction! The show she is on, is a show that's meant to be singing along in, so usually the songs for the crowd are as we know them, which doesn't at all takes anything away from Angelina's performance. "Allsang" means "Sing-along" 😊 I would LOVE it if you could react to all the new songs from her EP, I know you say you're waiting for videos, but please don't wait, just listen to it. It's sooo good!!

[@douglasrobarge5597]

Really nice reaction. I loved everything you said. 👍👍👍

[@rlew49ers]

I read that this event is an annual Summer sing-a-long at Allsang pa Grensen in Norway where she has sang "What A Difference A Day Makes" at 8 in 2014, Something's Got A Hold on Me" at 11 in 2016, "It's Now or Never" at 12 in 0217 and "I Have Nothing" at 16 in 2022... Of course no event where held during the pandemic - I assume. Don't know if she performed at this event in 2015, 2018 when she moved to the US and 2019.

[@paulwagner9303]

sometimes artists have a tight schedule (no matter how old they are 😉) and then it just doesn't fit 2014 "What A Difference A Day Makes" 2015 busy (traveling a lot) 2016 "Feeling Good" 2017 "Something's Got A Hold on Me" and "It's Now or Never" 2018 returning to Europe from LA for "It's Magic" release concert, Quincy's Bday and Kongsberg Jazz Festival 2022 "I Have Nothing" and "Bohemian Rhapsody". The show was held to a VERY limited audience during the pandemic and I believe travel restrictions were the reason she was unable to attend. 2019 is a good question, I only remember the Prøysenhuset concert - maybe the preparation for AGT The Champions overshadowed everything else

[@peterhormell1511]

“…We want her to succeed and break all the records; because of who she is…” What an absolutely beautiful and true sentiment Boudy! Well said. 🎶💙👣

Absolutely Arab man she is Queen of the world, Queen of jazz , Queen of blues, Queen of r&b, Queen of soul, Queen of song, Queen of breath, Queen of time,, Queen of Virtues, Queen of everything, Queen of our hearts Our Goddess of Music she is pure Love, my heart radiates love just to think of her, she is undefinable in human terms because she is beyond just a human experience,. You have to experience her with the eyes and ears of the heart that is where she lives, we will support and carry her anywhere she wants to go because we trust her with our hearts and we will be with her every step of the way she is not just a singer or an artist she transcends that she is simply Angelina.💗👣

[@victorariasarrue]

Hermosa reacción, y comparto plenamente lo que has comentado, ella es un ser humano especial que ama y respeta lo que hace, en su forma y en su fondo, no sé si has reaccionado a su propia composición llamada Oslo, ahí le canta a su ciudad y su país y en esta canción, maravillosa, refleja el amor a su tierra, a su naturaleza, a su mar a sus aves y a su gente. Un abrazo desde Chile

[@jeffreylevack4009]

Agree with you totally and really love your reactions to this Angel called AJ. You have said before it is ''AJA ''reactions. That is actually her complete initials. Keep it coming.

[@laraejelmeland1873]

Angelina transports you to a different time. She brings you into her world when music was true music and singers could sing, making you feel the emotions of that era. Truly out of this world, mind blowing talent!

[@osovagabundo1]

That next thumbnail at the end. Everytime We Say Goodbye, rooftop version is her standing right next to Ella Fitzgerald and doing her proud.

[@arceliedunn2022]

Hello 👋 You've just articulated every emotion , every thought I've had when it comes to Angelina singing songs of times gone by and from singers who dominated those eras . Your warm and wonderful words are so respectful of her craft and I thank for championing our gal on your channel. It's always a pleasure to listen to you critique her performances . At the age of 11 and 12 , Angelina's choice of artists and songs to cover becomes prolific and I'd like to mention several favourites of mine I'd like for you to listen to and give us your thoughts on them. 1. Young and Beautiful ( Lana Del Ray) 2 . Stay ( Rihanna) 3. I'd Rather Go Blind ( Billie Holiday) Until next time, take care and Ma'a Salama.🙏🤲

[@ScionDraak]

Another great, heartfelt, deep reaction on our Angel singing and being this incredible human, Boudy! Thank you so much for your feelable adoration for her!

[@beachbumseaglass]

She's just so beautiful.

[@stevenhambek846]

You see so clearly our love and respect for this precious Queen of ours. Wisdom from her beautiful mother and grandmother and dare i say also from above as well. ANGELINA IS ALWAYS ABOUT THE MUSIC. The story in the lyrics, the history of the song, and the enjoyment for the crowd. She is one of a KIND.😊

[@JimHall-yl6bx]

AMR, great reaction, as usual. How old is Angelina at the time of this performance? Take the year of the performance, 2017 and subtract six and you get 2011 so she was eleven years old. Works every time, just subtract six from the year of the performance.

[@DonaldLancon]

The way you were talking at the end reminds me of something I've been thinking about for a while now. Not sure I can phrase it particularly well, but here goes… Sometimes you'll hear someone on a talk show recount a story of meeting (or knowing personally) some world-famous person back before they were well known by the general public, and they'll talk about how there was something about the person that let you know that they were destined for greatness. Like, it might be a future president back in high school, or something, and everyone around them kinda knew they were going to be president someday. That kind of thing. To me, Angelina is _not_ that kind of person. She's a much rarer breed: the kind of person where you know they're going to do great things, _and you feel compelled to help make that happen_ . That's a whole different thing…

[@carolynhess3812]

Angelina is 11 years old in this performance.

[@George50809]

Yes, she was eleven.

[@markkleckner3060]

Awesome and agree completely, God Bless!

[@andyschnell58]

Angelina doesn't cover songs, she completes them. She is always respectful to the original artist while embodying each song and making it her own. Another angel says, Angelina doesn't sing to impress, she sings to express.

[@Halli50]

Well put.

[@sedigives]

No matter what book you read, there is only one and he gave us her. We try to figure out how she does it, maybe asking we need it so badly today is the real question. "She is" Thats what I believe.

[@beachbumseaglass]

Thanks again Arab man ! I appreciate your time bro 👍

[@rmaury147]

Another great reaction If you didn't know this song is a spinoff of O Sole Mio, rewritten in English for Elvis

[@MaraGore-zf2dr]

This performance was done in front of the Fredriksten Castle in Halden Norway, see the people we us in the United States don't have gatherings like this, see the children respestful listening to Angelina, adults singing, there are no gatherings like this, Angelina is a gift to us from above who knows but what a joy to listen to all her works there isn't one that anyone I think can't say was bad, she puts her heart and soul into everyone for us......................................

How good do I think Angelina is? I really do like this performance that we saw today, but there are at least 4 or 5 dozen Angelina songs that I’d put ahead of this.

[@zeuso.1947]

☝️Good job with the best explanation of why people want Angelina to succeed. It's because of the loving empathetic person she is.

[@robmarar]

HABIBI, you've got to react to AJ's new songs from her EP, especially my favorites "Good In Goodbyes" & "Diamond". I know you've done "I'm A Fool" & "Love Don't Let Me Go" but the rest don't have videos, just a visualizer picture of her, just listen to her sound. God her new sound is incredible and her writing OMG her songwriting skills are impeccable as well. I think her label reps are foolish for not promoting her properly, she should be on the radio plus having her perform these songs I named on T.V as a guest performance to promote her upcoming LP. Please, Please, PLEASE cousin react to at least one of these two songs just so I can see that priceless look on your face of shock and amazement unlike anything we've seen before. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🤣🤣🤣💖💖💖🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏.
