Brits React to Angelina Jordan - Crazy (TIKTOK)

[@wajj1842]

The spacing you like is called "negative space" in jazz. Jazz singers feel that it enhances the emotional transference. Angelina has covered "Crazy" four or five times now, and even though this one is shorter and recorded on a phone, it's the Best one (IMO). I've listened to it over 20 times now, and it's a 10. Absolutely STUNNING!! A preview of what the mature Angelina Jordan will sound like---AMAZING!

[@RachelDacusAuthor]

I get the feeling these Angelina TikToks are Angelina getting up, putting on the hoodie, and doing morning vocal warmups like a boss-genius. Crazy is one of my favorites, and it's hard to admit, but I'd rather listen to AJ doing this one than even the marvelous Patsy Cline. Who I imagine looking down on Angelina with a big smile.

[@BarrySowder]

Her hashtag for "Bye, bye Sunday blues" reveals something fascinating about Angelina. Most people who are feeling the Sunday blues would play or sing a very upbeat, happy song to feel happier. Angelina does the opposite . . . She sings to delve into her blue state of emotions, feels them deeply, acknowledges them, and shares them with us. Her blues then evaporate. And somehow we feel better, and blessed, as well . . .

[@wajj1842]

Well said, Barry.

[@patriciasepulveda1264]

Yes Barry .. good one.

[@OleOlson121]

Angelina has stepped over the line of the fantastic to the land of the Iconic. This was every bit as Iconic as Patsy with a voice to match or surpass and she had one of the most Iconic in Music History. One of the few times I dis the rating. Iconic 12 out of 10 for me.You have a mic with your camera. Angelina was singing into her phone. Patsy Cline had one of the most beautiful voices to grace this planet. This song is Iconic. Few have done justice to the original. The first time Angelina did a cover of this she did wonderful job as she usually does but it did not meet Patsy's quality and texture. Come on! It's Patsy Cline. One of my favorite artists of all time. I was always hopeful she would do another cover when she had more time to develop her vocals but was not expecting it. I saw a few short clips where she would do a line or two of the song but not much more than that. Each time sounded better than the last but this time she just killed it! Absolutely murdered it! That voice was every bit as Iconic and beautiful as Patsy. She has now equaled if not surpassed one of the greatest Iconic voices of all time. I always knew she would get here and boy has she arrived! Stunning! Stunning! Stunningly Beautiful! Go Girl! ♥👣👸🏻 I find myself having to modify this statement when I saw and listened to this again. I have seen and heard bet hadn’t given it the attention it deserved. She came very close to Patsy with this rendition and it was a few years back. Live from Kongsberg Jazz Festival 2018 kzbin.info/www/bejne/nXeUaWaPZrSEotE This was a beautiful rendition. Live.

[@McDevittMike]

This little girl is just singing into her phone and chooses a classic Willie Nelson song made famous my Patsy Cline!!! Probably one the most iconic pieces of music in the country/pop genre, and 'off the cuff' delivers this. This girl will never stop amazing me. Tik Toks are not my favourite thing, but I'm an old geezer and have to leave some things to the kids. But if she's putting out stuff like this, I guess I'll have to learn😎

[@gottabeemee]

I guess...

[@adetresnaRoyana]

Absolutely crazy for Amazing singer

[@ewelina8b]

Angelina is crazy good ❤❤❤

[@tchemmer]

Oh come on guys, 9.137. What's crazy is how good she is, and the Tik Toks are a teenager thing, she's singing all the time anyway, might as well record it. At least this time she was at home, she's done these things walking down the street, in the park, in a parking garage (weird echos on that one) I can imagine her coach with these things, correcting bad habits. All in all, luvly!

[@BritPopsReact]

@Tom Hemmer Hi To, hope you are well. We have to shake up the scoring a little, otherwise you would have nothing to put in your comments, plus we always try and give a reason for the score too, which you well know we have no qualifications for giving in the first place. Thanks for popping in.

[@tchemmer]

@@BritPopsReact Just teasing, it's all for fun

[@poolhallshark]

Hello guys! Short snippet, but still a very good reaction by you ! BP1 tried to describe that Angelina has developed an even fuller voice I assume? And I definitely agree :-) BP2 commented on the space she's leaving in the songs, not rushing anything. Great catch. That has always been one of Angelina's fortes, her innate ability of understanding and navigating the negative space in songs. She did that from a VERY early age. The fact that she started listening to jazz at the age of 3 has probably helped her a lot in that regard. That skill normally develops at a MUCH later stage, if at all :-) And BP2's yodel comment also brings a lot of meaning to me. It's definitely something we have heard more and more from her. But just like her runs, she never overdoes it. You always get the right amount from her, as she never wants the focus on her technical skills and capabilities, like so many other artists do. She always wants to pay respect to the original. Very mature, young girl :-) There is actually a great compilation out there, containing a plethora of her TikToks, which will DEFINITELY take you on the ride of your lives. It will give you a GREAT sense of what Angelina is and where she is as an artist right now : kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZpjSeKp3f7Ktl9U Consider doing it ? Or split it into parts ???? LOL Anyway guys, always great to see you back with Angelina. Take care and stay safe! Greetings from your Norwegian friend :-)

[@BritPopsReact]

@poolhallshark Hey, hope you are doing well and thanks as always for the great information you add. We will save the link to the TikTok compilation and have some fun with that. As always, we hope you are well and looking forward to the Eurovision Song Contest, how do you think Norway will do?

[@poolhallshark]

@@BritPopsReact You're very welcome. Tbh, I boycotted ESC like ten years ago, and I'm not even aware of Norway's contribution this year... LMAO I'll tune in when Angelina represents Norway, But I'm quite confident that she won't go there. Too rocky of a bottom for her I think :-))

[@keithserafy]

She just did a TikTok upgrade of Goodbye Yellow Brick Road that she sang in the finals of AGT-C in Oct 2019. You can tell how her voice has matured & she is also playing her keyboard. It's 2:43 sec. BTW, for me, this is a 10 out of 10! kzbin.info/www/bejne/iH3Jq3qgjtqcg8U

[@elainehoward8822]

Hi, Brilliant AJ is back, omgosh this is absolutely beautiful, she truly has a fabulous voice. Yes her voice is maturing as she gets older, and sounds incredible. This is an A1 upload I love it great reaction guys ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

[@lordlockdown64]

Lovely version from an amazing talent, nice one AJ !!

Impossibly silky smooth bluesy delivery that seems so effortless. She uses pauses and extended notes to deliver and elicit emotions like no other. Raw, one take. Amazing.

[@nancyjerningan8486]

Angelina was born to sing The Blues.

[@RobertDeMartin]

Yes, she had to perfect her yodel to do this song the way it was intended to be heard. The length of her vocals during this short version is, as you pointed out, an indication of more maturity in her voice. Everything is so natural for her and, for me, it's like she is singing 'for us'. This was what, 1:48, and she managed to swoon us so much we didn't want this to end.

[@mikejacob2421]

I gave the 'like' as soon as I started playing the video because I know I was going to love your reaction, you guys are great! And her version of Crazy is stellar!

[@BritPopsReact]

@Mike Jacob Thank you Mike, we really appreciate the support. All the best

[@peterrichards7387]

Angelina is an outstanding talent. One of my favourite young artists, always great to hear her perform. Cheers.

@Peter Richards Cheers Peter, thanks for your company as always

[@HusemR]

This young lady is a vocal chameleon. Every time she brings tears in my eyes cause it is so beautiful. Angelina Jordan ASTAR (the name says it all), this young norwegian genius is imo the best singer on the planet! I am 69 y old and have never heard a singer like her in my whole life.

[@stillracer2514]

Obviously I gave the performance a 10!

[@frankphillips5660]

Yeah, we have to get used to Tiktok nowdays. Her voice is getting fuller and richer as she matures but she still has that incredible ability to interpret and arrange songs in her special way. Angelina has several videos over the years of this song. Maybe you could consider doing 2 TikToks on one reaction? Here are 2 of my favorite TT videos. Adele's "Love Is A Game": kzbin.info/www/bejne/honFiqWshZipaqs and Sting's "Fields Of Gold": kzbin.info/www/bejne/aojae3t-rd17jM0 They are both very short but spectacular! Thank you guys for continuing to showcase Angelina. Your reactions are always fun! Take care

[@BritPopsReact]

@frank phillips Hi Frank, thanks for the suggestions. We will try and get to those soon. All the best

[@brgilbert2]

If Angelina ever took her talent to the Ryman Hall they would embrace her, especially her version of "Crazy".

[@thomshin2460]

What's left to say the girl is quite simply the best ever really.

[@gbulmer]

*9.3* BP1 gave the reasons, and I agree. 👍 Angelina's 'yodeley warbles' seemed reminiscent of Doris Day. 🤔 I watched immediately. I hoped it was Gnarls Barkley's "Crazy", which would be astonishing by her 🔥 My favourite cover of Barkley's "Crazy" is _Do You Remember This Crazy Song?_ kzbin.info/www/bejne/hn-uqIOuZ8yfjdU My favourite WOTE video is _Hey Ya! - Walk off the Earth (Outkast Cover)_ kzbin.info/www/bejne/kGi1aYuIgNZ7d6s 😂 Remarkable musicianship, and a joyful, funny performance. (finishes at 3m25 then a message for fans). They reworked it _Hey Ya! - Live On German TV_ kzbin.info/www/bejne/bp-9Y2yDocqFfrM a joyful, impressive performance. 👏

[@hans-georgschroter7887]

@G Bulmer Hello Mr G, thank you as always for all the great information. We do take it all in and will try and get to some of them soon. We always appreciate you popping in.👍👍

[@gbulmer]

​ @Brit Pops React ​Thank you! I don't comment as often as I did. You two, and audience, are young enough to have 'escaped' 'Sunday Afternoon movies'. So you might not remember Doris Day's warbley vibrato. A snippet of movie leapt into my head listening to Angelina. Two comments say Angelina's released an Instagram teaser of Gnarls Barkley's "Crazy. A full cover could be *Amazing.* I do recommend _"Hey Ya!'_ by _Walk off the Earth._ It's joyous, funny, impressive musicianship and 'juggling'. I don't think I'd seen anything like it before. 👍👏😂 I have been following comedy channels more too. I stumbled across _The Ricky Gervais Show_ cartoon animation 😂 Plus I'm trying to get back into amateur robotics. 🤖 Best Wishes to you both. G-Man. ☮ ------------ Amateur Robotics - Geeky! ---------- It's a mix of mechanical engineering, electronics and embedded programming. Quite Geeky. We encourage kids, or anyone, to take it up. Events were 'shut down' during COVID 😞 I'm a member of the .org _ukmars_ _'UK Micromouse and Robotics Society'_ (I hope YT is OK). We run two annual public robot competitions, as well as MINOS, a conference for enthusiasts. MINOS has a small competition too _Minos the UK MicroMouse and small robot conference 2022 contest highlights_ kzbin.info/www/bejne/l3jQqXl-jcZ0nK8 Micromouse robots are much smaller (about 100mm x 100mm) than Robot Wars, and not very violent. So they are *much cheaper* to make. Our Open Source Micromouse, UKMARSBot aka 'Mavis', designed for 'newbies', can be built for under £50-ish. 'Mavis' competes in 4 different competition events normally. All the CAD and software are on github user ukmars in ukmarsbot. Micromouse is also different from Robot Wars because it's a 'proper' autonomous robot, not a Radio Controlled 'drone'. So Micromice like 'Mavis' has sensors, and tracks it's own speed and location, eg: _Mavis the micromouse at Hazlemere 2021_ kzbin.info/www/bejne/fHWpaZV6frVpbbs The UK competition has been going since 1980. Our best UK competitor at global events is _2017 All Japan Classic micromouse contest 2nd prize, Peter Harrison_ kzbin.info/www/bejne/l6WwnHl4m9uGhLc The first winner of UK maze solving took about 3½ minutes to reach the centre of a maze, nowadays it's sub 10 seconds for the faster 'Pros'.

[@ronjones1077]

Angelina has at least 3 performances of this song one with her guitarist from Norway about 11 years old, one live outdoor concert with a small combo at 13 and now this at 16. I always skip over all of the other reactors when I see a new one posted by you two gents. Love your style! Please check AJ’s tribute to Avicii after his death. Wake Me Up with just her and Ivan her is guitarist is slowed down from the dance version to a very emotional experience the way she arraigned it. Another complete masterpiece by her at age 11~12 is Wicked Game with just her and her piano. It is chilling to watch. The fan made video is the one to watch. Her grandmother did one, same soundtrack but just pictures of AJ that do not support the empathy of the performance.

[@mrstlu4838]

Two excellent requests!

[@pietersbart]

So she records these with her phone in one take and it still comes out this amazingly because ... it is her. In this setting she cannot can hide anything. It is gorgeous take on this song and she makes me feel it all the way :-) You might like listening to het singing Whitney's 'When you believe': kzbin.info/www/bejne/q3LPh61_bZJonrM (official) and kzbin.info/www/bejne/hqbIaaxvltunqqs (TikTok redo).

[@hu._-]

Chills .. where is my parka? This girl could be a country star, also.

[@Driveum]

It looks like you have yet to react to any of the many songs Angelina recorded at home accompanied by the guitarist Ivan Mendez. He would go over to the house, they would discuss some songs then pick a couple, practice them a little while and then record them usually in 1 take the same day! They are all good but my favorites are: 1) “Stay” by Rihanna kzbin.info/www/bejne/lXi2h4OseN5mj8k 2 ) “Million Years Ago” by Adele. kzbin.info/www/bejne/h3mvpY2HaNh8rac They both are incredible and even more so when you consider her age and the fact there was very little rehearsal and no studio.

[@tomwhite4736]

2 great suggestions.

[@mrstlu4838]

I would add “Wake Me Up” Aviici - best tribute out there!

She has always had a soulful voice but she is constantly developing more control and more layers and complex colours to it. It's been said you really need to be a vocal coach to be able to understand and describe what she does, but fortunately you don't need to be an expert to hear it and feel it and appreciate her.
