DramaSydETV: Angelina Jordan - A Million Years Ago REACTION VIDEO

[@ronnyandersen5521]

Rusty: ´She is not the next Amy, she is not the next Adele, She is not the next Whitney..... She is the first Angelina! `

[@encrypter46]

As astute as a comment could be.

[@jayseaem]

those are my sentiments exactly Ronny, first and forever.

[@jacquespicotte8886]

You are right Rusty. And thanks Ronny!

[@gran29ty67]

Ronny Andersen I like that. So true. You can’t compare her to anyone She is unique and amazing.

[@lucreziajackson3326]

Damn Straight!

[@MsMixd]

She doesn't just sing. She paints a picture and imprints it into your soul. She is an artist. I can't wait to see what she will come up with after she graduates school and has full days to work on it.

[@krash66]

She is a once in a generation talent.. Prodigy... Full Stop

[@toveHjelmseth]

Could’nt agree more. Angelina is her own and she’s amazing as Angelina Jordan 🥰❤️

[@robertcarlson2807]

Angelina doesn’t sing songs. She sings emotions that go directly to our souls creating beauty and joy. This is Angelina’s world. We just live in it (thank goodness)!

[@RustyShacklefordChannel]

You said it all. I have said this many times... She is not the next Amy, she is not the next Adele, She is not the next Whitney..... She is the _first_ Angelina! About the recording setup.... if you look at her cover channel you will see many different setups. She used a pop filter...comments said it was covering her face. She got rid of it. Then they said the mic was still blocking her.. she made adjustments. She started using the style you saw in the whitney cover (side shot). I think Angelina is using her cover channel as a testing ground for some different sounds, and techniques, and setups. She's not trying to create stamped wax in her bedroom. She's basically 'playing' with her "hobby" (although it is more of a lifelong passion than a hobby) There are lots of videos of her in legit studio settings over the years, and you can tell she is very comfortable in that environment. I have heard that producers love her because she is a 'one take' kind of artist. There are also lots of videos of her interacting with different bands. She seems like she is in full control at all times. A true professional...and even at 8,9,10 years old. It's really great to hear your thoughts on her, as I can tell you really know about music. I think she is going to continue to surprise and impress you with every new thing you see from her.

[@ronnyandersen5521]

Two first lines Rusty, great expressed, just like that, she is Angelina. (I just might copy that string;-))

[@Dave-jo1hf]

Just to add. It's my understanding that she had to move away from studio work because of the overhead. So the video and the sound took a very small hit. Nothing her beautiful rich voice can't overcome.

[@dagnytaggart5955]

We can only compare her to other singers, like a weak and incomplete metaphor.

[@encrypter46]

As astute as a comment could be.

[@stevek5332]

Your comments about "playing with her hobby" just struck me with what she wrote in IG when recording "Wicked Game". "Just having fun on my corner with Wicked Game song." I imagine you've probably already noticed it, but if not, here it is: kzbin.info/www/bejne/op-mk5aXbr-IeJo

[@fishwrite3]

Angelina is marvelous. I love listening to her. It doesn't matter how she is judged by others. Her gift is special and will overwhelm the critiques by folks who know nothing. I'm glad you shared your thoughts about enhancing her singing.

[@philipmorgan6812]

Most nations have national treasures ...Angelina is a treasure for the world.

[@shabkarpa]

I'm glad you stood up for her and asked that people go beyond comparisons with other great singers. I would add I get a little tired of people saying "for her age." Seriously? In her 9 year old I Put A Spell On You she did things that many adult singers only dream of. And she has continued to fearlessly explore her voice. Such a joy to be on this journey with her. And technically, doesn't she shine with only that tiny gorgeous guitar behind her? That's hard. There is nothing to guide you, nothing to hide your mistakes. She sings sitting down. You will seldom see that, because it is harder. And unless she's belting, she's not even trying hard. Effortless. Amazing.

[@brendaveselich3086]

Great reaction! She is Angelina Jordan, that's all she needs to be.

[@george40nelson4]

You can't compare her to Adele who has been singing for years while Angelina has been singing for several lifetimes.

[@itahartati]

She fills the song with her soul, I admire her, my lovely Angelina

[@bingobillable]

I'm an Angelina fan and I've seen most of her performances, many multiple times, and I have also seen many reactors to her catalog. Your reaction was probably one of the best I have seen, because you nailed the fact that she doesn't need to be compared to anyone. She is truly Angelina Jordan, and hopefully, no one will convince her to be someone she isn't.

[@jimfrederick3907]

Angelina! Enough said!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@davidcochran6291]

Angelina is the one they will be comparing to not she being compared to. A beautiful voice, a beautiful young woman. She is a 'born singer' not simply someone who can sing.

[@MrBjonte]

Those notes, that timbre, carrying unheard of amounts of emotions, simply fantastic!!

[@LadyOaksNZ]

Thank you! Appreciate your honest appreciation of Angelina ❤ Shes truly the BEST SINGER IN THE WORLD PERIOD!

[@selmonb921]

Finally a reactor with credentials! Perfectly explained! We can only imagine what A.J. will sound like when her voice fully matures. She is an extremely rare talent, who uses her own voice, not to mimic another artist.

[@ingenielsen1724]

Big thanks , for putting it in place that Angelina IS Angelina . She is as unique as she is ...an amazing singer 💕💕💕 Thank you for your wonderful reactions 😎 i love to see them 😍. Have a nice day.... greetings from Inge in Denmark

[@stephenevans6055]

Wow, your words are perfect , Angelina will be Norways greatest export, she is perfection personified

[@therealityspectrum-epictvp4988]

Great critique. She is an outstanding singer far ahead of her time. Angelina is her own person. She is a huge bundle of talent who sings about every type of music there is. If she was not reading the lyrics, I probably would have been weeping all over.

[@moanangahuiatahau9906]

Thank you Brother who else could have said it better but you, Angelina Jordan has her own sound very unique....

[@williamarmstrong9008]

Angelina Jordan I put a spell on you when she was 10 years old if you haven’t covered if I was suggest you would say is fantastic I think that everything she does is gives me Goosebumps on my goosebumps

[@alberttenfoot]

Thank you for one of the most profound reactions to Angelina. Yes, she is her own person but I, too, have fallen into the trap of making comparisons and I shouldn't have done because every song she sings is, in my opinion and that of many others, better than the original. She has the ability to adapt her voice to draw out the emotion of the song and communicate that emotion to her listeners.. In a pathetic attempt to justify the comparisons I have made, the fact that most of her songs are covers leads to the very human response to make comparisons. Your comments are a "wake up" call to me because the very fact of making a comparison doesn't give Angelina the recognition she deserves. Please continue on your journey of discovery.

[@ellaevansbolt]

I can only 100% agree - no need to be compared to ANYONE else! She is phenominal. I also love the reactions from Ivan as he FEELS her music flow over him.

[@reelove1869]

I am so glad you said that, yes, it is an honor to be in the same category as Whitney, Amy, Adele, but please ppl, quit giving the credit to them .Angelina is a talent all on her own and I cringe every time I hear someone say she's channeling another artist.

[@jimfrederick3907]

She has everyone's portion of "IT" !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@stephenevans6055]

Her voice touches your soul, again, another great reaction

[@TheBlaster54]

I adamantly agree with your summation of the performance, especially your comment regarding people needing to stop comparing Angelina to past and present performers. IMO, Angelina is the most uniquely gifted and versatile performer on the planet.

[@amandasamson4513]

Falling in love with her as an artist, what an incredible talent

[@dagnytaggart5955]

Take a half dozen random Angelina covers or originals and imagine any other singer dead or alive singing them all with the intensity of emotion and quality of voice Angelina gives off so effortlessly. Every time I try, I burst out laughing. I love my divas but they all come up short, ankle biters all.

[@Bjarmarsson]

Lol quite a entertaining game 😀 you're right I can't find anyone that could do the same thing.. She is Unique.. imagine Elvis Singing "I have nothing or Whitney (RIP) Singing "Borne to die" but Angelina does it all 😊

[@billmichealoff9549]

Great reaction!!!! Please do many more of her. Will very much enjoy watching you follow her journey. You are absolutely correct. Angelina is a complete entity on a trajectory to stardom based solely on her own talent. I think she laughs when she hears people compare her to others. Silly people she thinks. She knows what she has and what to do with it. Just watch, listen and enjoy.

[@Mjosayahoo]

jesus, this was amazing. So much passion, so talented, have no words for it.

[@jamesconner4145]

Amen

[@joekaye2228]

Yea what you said . There's only one Angelina. And that's all we need . And what a delight she is

[@peggymathis4842]

Amillion years ago made me cry,she only can do that

[@mehdikeyha3755]

Every time I listen to her cover song then I listen to original like Elton John Adel Amy weinhouse or Freddy mercury or else this singer are all my favorite singers especially Elton John withney Huston queen Adel and what amazes me is that she sing better than all these singer and after I listen to.angelina I don't enjoy to listen any other singers angelina took my expectation to another level

[@gran29ty67]

I actually love when she sings Adele. She puts so much emotion and feeling into her voice. Adele has a great voice. But this little girl just takes it to a new level. Goosebumps every time I hear her sing.

[@ulyseslabajo]

Couldn't agree more.... One of the most sensible words I heard from a reactor reacting to Angelina Jordan. 👌

[@therealityspectrum-epictvp4988]

I really like intelligent people, and that is why I subscribed to your channel -- I get a real intelligent reaction to a performance, not a bunch of garbage by so called reaction folks that don't know anything about sound, production, engineering, and raw performance. Great job!

[@TheBlaster54]

Guitarist, Ivan’s reaction says it all.

[@geofthompson3844]

What i find most amazing about these early performances is not the voice, which is obviously ridiculously amazing, it's the emotional resonance, she sings like she's lived it, but she can't possibly understand because she hasn't lived it. She hasn't suffered or felt the things she is singing about, but she sounds like she has, and did from the get go. Like somehow she is able to channel the pain of others through her voice. It's uncanny and weird. But undeniable. She really makes you feel that emotion. It's a true talent.

[@Wolfm4n10]

Thank you for reacting to angelina Jordan again. Yes you said IT all. She is not the next amy or lana del ray or Whitney. She is the first angelina and many times i think she is better to sing the song than the original artists. Angelina gonna be worldwide known artist. Thank you doing two angelina Jordan videoes in a row

[@Bjarmarsson]

She already is 😀

[@karolyn8644]

Thank you for another reaction full of insight. I love how Angelina lets her fans watch her progress from the beginning, her rehearsals, her silly moments, her studio, video, and concert performances, from the most raw to the most polished. We love not only her voice, but her humanity. I loved watching her mock-crying her way through the very funny rehearsal of Cry Me A River! And yes, there is no need to compare her to anyone. Kudos to her guitarist as well. He is very good, and obviously enjoys playing for the incomparable Angelina.

[@jeffreyjenkins1242]

Yes! Her humanity, I believe, is an integral part of her ability to bring out the emotional response from her fans. I love the videos of her doting on her little sister Juliette, singing to her departed and much loved grandfather and breaking down at the end of the song, her interactions with fans, her band and others and of course the story of the shoes. She is an Angel beautiful in ways far beyond the mere physical.

[@Bjarmarsson]

I'm so glad you're taking on Angelina, she is source of endless surprises none of her songs are sung in the same way always different and always Soulful I really like your reactions you're right on the money, many have tried to compare her to this or that Artist like Amy Winehouse until they hear her next song.. the thing is she has the rare ability to adapt her Voice to every song and takes along the spirit of the era and the essence of the artist's voice and renders these kind of marvels in her subtle and Soulful way.. thanks again for your honest reaction ~ OneLove ~ JBB

[@vanjahalvorsen7770]

❤️❤️Thank you! You are SO right! Angelina is a star in her own doing. Her version always brings tears to my eyes. The breathing sounds don’t bother me at all. After all, it’s just a you tube video, not recorded in a «real» studio. BTW; the guitarist is Ivan Mendez.

[@luis3mgm]

Thank you for your reaction, Angelina is really unique. From the tecnical side, that mic is a TLM 102, the cheapest in Neumann studio mics. Nevertheless, it has a unique feature for a condenser mic, an internal foam that acts as a pop filter. As Angelina must sing much closer to the mic than in a studio, that feature is a must.

[@mrpeppery]

Thanks for the insight! So nice to find reactors who actually have value to add to the conversation! Especially nice to find one who actually contributes to the music industry. Angelina is such a gem.

[@clydeatrowbridge]

she sang a song in japanese that was so incredibly beautiful as she read lyrics off iphone.didn't understand one word but it was so incredibly beautiful. took me back to shogun series...

[@Bjarmarsson]

Where can I find that Japanese song? Do you have a link? Thanks

[@jeffreyjenkins1242]

Every cover Angelina does she puts her own stamp on it. She makes the song hers. It is an uncanny ability and a tremendous talent and asset to her performances. Angelina always chooses what to sing and does the arrangement herself. She now has at least 3 original songs out there with, I am sure, more to come. The only comparison I make regarding Angelina's covers is, "Better than the original!" Thanks for your reaction, from a long time Angelina fan and new subscriber.

[@mx81mike]

I'm blown away at how good this young lady can sing. She has raw natural talent that will take her far. Imagine what she will sound like as she matures if she sounds like this at 12-13 years old.

[@briant3404]

your reactions to angelina are great :)

[@rowenanunn590]

Brilliant reaction❣

[@stevenhopkins2887]

It might have been said before, but I love the look of the guitar player (who is also very talented) smiling when Angelina hits the notes perfectly....

Could you stop your great . I just subscribed and your the reason what this was for .life is to short .if I want peace love and tidied, wouldn't need you. By the way I'm a Angelina fan boy and you help me to learn an understand what she is doing

Good luck with your endevavours and thx for the reaction. Best regards from Norway She is a remarkable talent for sure :)

Thank you for reacting to Angelina Jordan Astar again so soon after your last reaction. This is a great reaction and you are so right in what your thoughts on this matter are. She is unique and touch our souls for sure! 😇 looking forward for more reactions in the future 😀

[@natalieresendez1562]

I just subscribed to your channel because I love ❤️ ur reaction & what u said about Angelina, I love u & Angelina Thanks

[@havcg1]

Great review - also, I just watched Bernie's chat with Ivan yesterday. I noted how they would get together, pick a song which he and she would basically learn on the spot and then record it. WOW! He was bemoaning (slight) flubs like squashed notes as he played and talked about how he just followed her lead as she sang. That was, actually, an almost unbelievable performance for sure! Thanks!

[@Frankincensedjb123]

She's amazingly good. Keep in mind, she's a mere child. What's frightening is that she's got plenty of room to grow. She also has some unique jazz phrasings there. Very impressive.

[@maryboylan3093]

She connects with me like now other singer I listen to.

[@TheFremont]

You are so very real, love your groove. Very user friendly. Very real!

[@Dave-jo1hf]

This was the first video and first I ever heard of her. It popped up under recommendations, thank you KZbin! I have not gone a day without Angelina since. Watching her read the lyrics can be a distraction and it seems that her timing is off by just a little. But, I think she does that on purpose. If you turn the lights down, close your eye's, relax and listen, her timing is just perfect. This amazing, young ladies voice is medication for the soul. Thanks for reacting to this video, I like how you see things. You have a new sub. Dave

[@jeffreyjenkins1242]

I agree completely. I too cannot go a single day without Angelina.

[@TheFremont]

Love your reaction, very wise.

[@krisamagus1]

Nice reaction,bro!

[@kasparhauser5357]

Very well observed and analyzed, totally agree on those points you make. Whereat I actually never felt the need to compare Angelina to other artists. Regarding the calm and natural way her voice is "washing around" those song themes I think she`s already standing on her very own musical feet (since longer). Will be interesting to see how she will develop further after "colliding" with the musical industry. Hopefully it will be in her and our favor.

[@Sten1961]

Nice

[@brianharkness3441]

Love your reaction. You are spot on !

[@TheFremont]

Who is the man! You nailed it!

[@Lene-Lene]

What you Said!!!

[@phyllisb4634]

Well said She certainly has her own sound and interpretation that seems so mature. I like hearing some of the technical opinions you share since I am very clueless about those details.

[@strongangel]

@DramaSydETV ...always great reactions Man. For my money STAY is equal to AMYA Emotion wise. In any event both demonstrate the quality Angelina possesses above all other attributes, vocal wise, that being Serenity. Her cover of Billie Holiday's ALL OF ME Is sublime.

She was sangin! Love it.

[@gran29ty67]

Correct. She is a unique singer.

[@grubby124]

Please, please yes! Finally someone saying what I've felt since the first time I heard her. She's incomparable, so stop comparing her. She's NOT like Amy Winehouse. She's NOT like Adele. She's NOT like Ella Fitzgerald. She's Angelina Jordan, and that's all she needs to be. I agree with you 100%. A wonderful reaction. Well thought out and right on point. She does occasionally use a shield on her mic, but her fans complained that it interfered with them watching her expressions as she sang, so on these home studio covers she's mostly dropped it. After all, that's who she's doing these for. If you really want to hear her on a professional level, you have to go to her extended CD 'It's Magic', or wait a few more months until her album drops. I think that's going to show her on a whole new level, and I can hardly wait. Thank you for another fine reaction.

[@boveega7]

You’re great in your cretics. Love her, love you!

[@TheBlaster54]

Drama, I have been binge watching Angelinas videos for the past day and a half. The list of adjectives is too long to accurately describe her other worldly talent. You can sense the God particle in this young lady. IMO, She is genius level good.

[@royjohansen7472]

👍😊❤️

[@keithserafy]

As you said "this one is ready to go," along with about 20 others at this level. I've said before, she could book a day in a music studio with Ivan Mendez, this LA guitarist, & fly in Egil Clausen, her Oslo guitarist. She is known for her single takes, so they could knock out an album in a day & be home for dinner. I would contribute to a studio rental fund to make it happen! I sure hope the rumors are true that she has an album of originals coming out in January. Does anyone have info on this?

[@grubby124]

Here she is confirming it herself: kzbin.info/www/bejne/d17VYpyNha2Ygsk

[@ronraskind]

The info on her new album was relayed by her herself. A couple of reactors met her on the set of AGT two months ago when she was auditioning for AGT Champions season 2 which will be on in January. She indicated that a new album is coming shortly
