- The Barefoot Princess - (From her book, television and radio interviews, and podcasts made between 2014-2015. Includes excerpts from her diary made that day in 2012.) Why does Angelina sing barefooted? Angelina Jordan is known as "The Barefoot Princess" or "The Barefoot Princess of Jazz," amongst many other names. She always performs barefooted, whether in front of a live audience or during a studio performance. The story is that while living in the Middle East, at 6 years old, Angelina came across an orphaned girl, of her own age, sitting in the street, weighing people on a bathroom scale to earn money. Angelina said to herself, "I would like to share her life for one second to know what it is like to sit alone, wet, and damp, and barefoot in a corner of the street." Angelina could see the girl's bare feet were scarred and that it was cold outside, so she offered her own shoes to the girl. Little Angelina says that she really loved her shoes, as they were very nice and she knew she would miss them. But she saw the other little girl’s need for them, which outweighed her own desire to keep them. So she insisted the little girl take them. Angelina called her Princess, even though the girl said she didn't live in a castle, but the ruins of a building next to where she sat. After sharing their hopes and dreams, the little girl said of Angelina's wish to sing for the world, "You will become the one you dream of and when your dreams come true, you have to remember the poor children without shoes; and I will pray for you Angelina.” Later that day, 6 y/o Angelina wrote in her diary, "The world is very strange. Right then and there, I felt as if a door in my heart opened up, and it was filled with lots of lights. It was as if there was, from Earth to Heaven, a staircase. I climbed the stairs. To be able to do something for another human - it was such a big thing…hard to describe really.” From that point on, Angelina takes off her shoes, in honor of ‘Princess’ and all the other less fortunate children of the world, who are orphaned, hungry, or in want of even basic clothing. In 2015, at the age of 9, Angelina wrote a book about the encounter, as everyone continued to ask why she sang barefoot. Her grandmother, Mery Zamani, created the artwork for the book. So at 9, Angelina Jordan became the youngest published author in Norway. Angelina has performed alongside many other artists, raising attention and helping to raise over 21 million euros and millions of dollars for children in need.

She was enrolled in a TAC school in Norway when she was 5 and won Norway's Got Talent just after she turned 8. She chooses and arranges all her music. She recently signed with Republic Records as a 'featured artist' and has complete artistic control. Her uncle is her agent and she is surrounded by family. She sang at O2 in London for Quincy Jones birthday and he said she is the biggest thing since Michael Jacksonl. Her performance of Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody impressed Queen so much thay gave her the rights to her version. She has performed for Barak Obama at the Nobel Peace Prize. She performs barefoot until all children have shoes. Her covers of Adele and Amy Winehouse are astounding.

- Who is Angelina Jordan - Angelina is a Norwegian born child prodigy in music. She's a singer/ songwriter who's arranged over 180 covers and 5 originals, all since the age of 7. Angelina began singing at 18 months old. At 2, she began teaching herself how to sing, focusing primarily on the jazz masters of decades gone by. These are artists such as Billie Holiday, Louis Armstrong, Ella Fitzgerald, and Etta James. She's also influenced by Amy Winehouse, Frank Sinatra, Whitney Houston, and Adele, to name a few. She's also been said to be the girl of 1,000 voices. Yet even though we can hear the phrasing and style she puts in the songs, it's always Angelina that we hear. At 7 years old, she auditioned for Norway's Got Talent. She was the last to audition. The judges had no idea who she was or what she could do. They saw a diminutive mussy haired, barefooted girl with her teeth still growing in. For her audition, she performed "Gloomy Sunday" from Billie Holiday. On TV-2, they've reported over 14 million views of this performance. This does not take into account the many hundreds of reactors showing this audition to millions more. Needless to say, Angelina went on to win the 2014 season of NGT shortly after her 8th birthday. The family was bombarded with requests for performances, interviews, and record label offers. They turned down 90% of the requests, as they insisted that Angelina should enjoy a normal childhood. That didn't stop Angelina from performing at select engagements around the world, singing for Heads of State, and even Barack Obama. She's spent time and worked with musicians such as Quincy Jones and Alan Walker. She first appeared on American television, The View, at 8 years old. Angelina auditioned for America's Got Talent The Champions at 13 years old. She made it just up to the final selection of the final 5 when she dropped from the competition. It wasn't that she wasn't good enough to be in the final 5, but it was because she refused to sign with an AGT affiliated label, should she win. She knew very well what production hungry labels could do to her music. She even turned down Disney. At 14, Angelina signed with Republic Records. Republic gave her complete artistic control as well as control over the performances she would make. She turned 17 on January 10, 2023, and will graduate from high school after the spring semester. From then on, she will embark on her full-time professional career. She's been working closely with Republic on her first album under their label. It's likely that it will drop shortly after her graduation.

She's been singing her face off since 1.5 years old.. (Literally there is a video of her singing Whitney's I will always love you at 18 months)... Most kids start talking at that age. In the words of Quincy Jones she is the most Talented Vocalist he's seen since Michael Jackson. She's played for Presidents, Prime Ministers, and Royalty. Opened for Quincy Jones 85th Birthday. Played at noble peace prize awards, and opened concerts for Nora Jones. And that was all by the age of 11 or 12. At the age of 17 she has a solid 10 year professional career behind her. And she finishes High School this year. Her First fully produced Album drops in June and her first single in just 2 days!!!!! OMG... it's all happening. :D

Oh boy, you are going to be bombarded by her fans called Angels that will fill you in on this music prodigy with an old soul from Norway. She's basically been a star since she was 7 years old. First and foremost, she is a jazz singer but has the ability to sing any genre. She also does all of her own musical arrangements. Her early influences are Billie Holiday, Dinah Washington, and Etta James to name a few. Her love of jazz came from her grandmother playing jazz music around her when she was young. In 2014, she entered and won Norway's Got Talent at the age of 8. With her new found fame, she used it to appear on many shows from abroad and help raise millions for the less fortunate children around the world. At age 13, she was invited to participate on America's Got Talent: The Champions in 2020. She shocked the audience and the judges with her rendition of Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen. She received a standing ovation from all and got the Golden Buzzer from judge Heidi Klum to go straight to the Finals. Her performance went viral and even the group Queen responded on Twitter by saying, " Wow, what a rendition!" Not only that, but she received the copyrights for her version of this song from Queen, which makes it hers now. She did not win, but her fan base grew and expanded her popularity. Now 17 years old, living in Los Angeles, and is signed with Republic Records, whose clients include Taylor Swift, Ariana Grande, The Weeknd, and Drake to name a few. Her family and Republic Records have agreed not to heavily promote her just yet so she can live as normal of a life as possible and finish her schooling. She has a new single coming out May 5th and a new album of original music which will be coming out this year. She recently returned back to Norway and performed at a number of sold out concerts in which fans from around the world came to see her. Many of the fans there said she sounded better live in person and was a once in a lifetime experience. Her fans call her The Barefoot Princess. She always performs with no shoes when she sings. Why? The reason is very special. When she was 6 years old, she was traveling with her family in Iran where she met a shoeless homeless girl in the streets that was about her age. She made money by weighing people. After speaking with her for a few minutes, Angelina noticed the scars on the girl's feet and asked the girl what her dream is. The girl said she wanted to be a doctor but she couldn't because she had to make money for her family. Angelina did what came natural to her, she gave the little girl her shoes and told her to not give up on her dreams. The girl then asked Angelina what her dreams were, Angelina answered that she wanted to be a superstar, and the girl said she would pray for her success. Since then, Angelina has performed barefoot in honor of that little girl and to those who are less fortunate around the world. She keeps this promise to this day. One of the reasons why we love her so much!

What you will soon realize is that Angelina today at 17 Angelina is already the best Jazz singer on the Planet! IMO Soon to be one of the Best Vocalists of All Time. ♥👣👸🏻 Angelina won Norway's Got Talent when she was 8 yrs old after starting the competition at 7 yrs old. The youngest winner of any Got Talent show on the planet. She had to wait two years because you had to be 7 yrs old to enter. She started with a rendition of Billie Holiday's 'Gloomy Sunday' which she just infused with Billie's soul. She followed this by another Billie classic with a pitch perfect rendition of 'I'm a Fool to Want You' acapella. Her next performance was a beautiful rendition of 'Bang, Bang' by Sonny & Cher and performed most famously by Nancy Sinatra. She won the competition with what I consider her first Masterpiece performance of 'Summertime' by George Gershwin. Shortly after winning she was designated a National Treasure by the Norwegian people. ♥👣👸🏻 There is video of Angelina recorded by her mother Sarah Astar singing a couple of lines of "I Will Always Love You' by Whitney Houston when she was 18 months old. She started studying all the greats of Jazz soon after under the guidance of her Iranian Grandmother Mery Zamani a child prodigy in her own right as an artist and poet. English is Angelina's 3rd language behind Norwegian and Farsi along with Japanese and some German and perhaps more. She did this from 2 & 3 yrs old by scrolling thru KZbin of all their most Iconic performance. Angelina doesn't just mimic these greats, she reinterprets them and then simply sings them the way they were meant to be sung. She makes them her own. Angelina was begging her mother to go on "that Simon show" when she was 3 yrs old. encouraged to sing children songs, she would have none of that. Angelina chooses her own songs and she is absolutely fearless. No song is too big and no artist is too Iconic. All the most Iconic songs by the most Iconic singers in music history. Angelina has said singing to her is as important to her as breathing. ♥👣👸🏻 She will sing anything Acapella at any time and often does. Her Tic-Toc is full of these impromptu performances wherever she might be whether in the car, walking around the neighborhood or in a parking Garage. Accompanied by most often a simple guitar or piano her performances are always incredible. Add a band or even a full orchestra as in her performance for Quincy Jones at his request singing his arrangement of 'Fly Me to the Moon'. The same arrangement he did for Frank Sinatra. This opened for his 85th birthday celebration at the 02 Arena in London. ♥👣👸🏻 She is well known worldwide in the industry. Her family and Angelina have been holding back turning down many of the biggest in the industry while she finishes school. Remember she just turned 17 January 10th. They finally signed with Republic Records about three years ago after getting a deal that gave her control of her artistic vision and has since released 2 originals, 'Million Miles' & '7th Heaven' plus a soundtrack for the New Movie "The Hating Game" which opens with her song 'Mercy' performed most notably by Duffy. Republic has labeled her their Highest Priority and assigned a team to her including Rob Christy a multiple Grammy Winner, often on the piano in many of her performances and a whole team of equally qualified professionals. She has worked with some of the best musicians in the industry and always get exactly what she wants. They call her the Boss and have immense respect for her. She is due to release her 1st album promised by Angelin to be soon. She has been diligently perfecting her craft since winning Norway's Got Talent singing all over the world, Germany, Japan, Korea as well as TV appearances such as The View, Little Big Shots and most notably America's Got Talent where she premiered her Iconic Performance of 'Bohemian Rhapsody' which Queen gave her the rights to record her own version available on ITunes and Spotify included on her Album 'Magic' which she released on her own along with a Christmas Song collection. She didn't win AGT because she would not sign with Simon. IMO. She has also sung for Many Heads of State including Barack Obama and a couple of songs opening for Norah Jones in Korea. She also sang at the Nobel Peace Prize Concert at 8 yrs old for Malala and another recipient. Mostly she has sung for charities helping raise millions for children charities and climate change. The great part is that most of it has been well documented often by herself and her family. Her Grandmother who introduced her to Jazz at 3 & 4 yrs old is behind the camera more than anyone else. Norway proclaimed her a National Treasure shortly after she won NGT. Love the reactions. Get ready for a deep dive. She is worth it! Love from the Land of Vikings here in mid-Minnesota USA wherein lies a huge proud Norwegian population. ♥👣👸🏻

I think you'll find the more you experience her performances, you'll see she doesn't do anything on accident. Quincy Jones said she is the best vocalist since Michael Jackson. David Foster couldn't praise her enough, and Sugar Foot, Michael Jackson's drummer, said she "is the best to come to us in our time." Nora Jones had her open her Concert in Korea with 40,000 people. She was asked to do an encore. She was 10 years old. Every major label on the planet tried signing her, including Disney and Simon Cowell from AGT. she turned them all down. It's why she was "voted off" AGT the Champions. She wouldn't sign. She won Norways got talent when she was 8. The president of Republic Records met with her personally and agreed to Angelina's terms, and at 14, she signed with them. Angelina was declared a national treasure by the King of Norway. She is also the youngest published author in Norway. Her story is incredible, and her talent is unmatched.

Norwegian born Angelina Jordan began singing at the age of one and a half, and by age three was listening to jazz and classics legends on repeat. Her grandmother was her greatest influence, but Angelina chose her own path. Her first studio performance was at age 7, singing I Who Have Nothing. She won Norway's Got Talent at the age of only 8, singing old time classics from Billie Holliday and George Gershwin, and became the youngest ever vocalist to win an international Got Talent Show! Her performance at 9 years old of Screamin Jay Hawkins, I Put a Spell on You is considered one of the finest recordings ever of a 9-year-old vocalist! Angelina also went viral on America's Got Talent the champions in 2020 with her unique versions of Bohemian Rhapsody and Goodbye Yellow Brick Road. Angelina sings in English which unbelievably is her third language! She is a true prodigy. She is now 17, and has recorded a huge library of songs, including covers and several originals. A major attraction to Angelina's music is the emotion and attitude she conveys, although she has not experienced the life events! She is known as the barefoot princess of 1,000 voices as she can adjust her tone, style, and register for any song or genre. She was signed by Republic Records almost two years ago. She has not been widely promoted yet, as her family wanted to allow her a normal childhood. However, she graduates school this year, and her new album of originals should be released within the next few months, followed by a world tour, possibly this summer. Here is a link from ages 6 to 17 of over 100 Angelina chronological KZbin performances with five originals. Here is a more comprehensive playlist of approximately 190 videos including tiktok and Instagram. Why does Angelina sing barefoot? The answer may bring a tear to your eye. It is related to a promise she made to herself and to the world when she was only 6 years old. She was traveling in the Middle East with her mom and grandmother and they came across a young orphan girl with no shoes and scarred feet. Angelina gave the girl her own favorite shoes. Angelina ask the girl what she wanted to be when she grew up and she said a doctor, but she could not because she had to take care of her siblings. She asked Angelina the same question and Angelina said I want to sing for the world. The young girl said she would pray for Angelina. Since then, Angelia has forever performed barefoot as a reminder of all those less fortunate. At age 9 she wrote a book about this experience, Between two Hearts, becoming the youngest ever published author in Norway. She also has helped raise millions for children's charities. She even donated her winnings from Norway's Got Talent to charities. She is a special individual, and one you cannot follow without developing an emotional bond. Angelina captures hearts because she is humble and has compassion for humanity. Her stated goal from childhood was to sing for the world and spread love and peace. I trust this will cause you to embrace her as millions of others have, and that you will continue down the rabbit hole from which you will not want to escape. Peace and love.

There is a lot to say about this song, which she wrote in honor of her grandfather who died short before, but also addressed it to everybody who lost a dear one! The sweet lesson that those lost ones always will be in you somehow and you're never really alone! The song came out in heavy Covid times and it was a comfort to many people.

Great reaction, This her own song written by her to honor her grand father that passed on. Angelina is natural born singer, very little vocal meddling with her voice from outside sources. Absolutely love your excitement over our "Barefoot Princess of Jazz" she will blow your mind no matter what genre she takes on. Angelina is an Atomic bomb of emotional content, no one but a heartless person can resist her voice. Looking forward to more of your reactions to the 'New Barefoot Queen of Song' as well as her awesome jazz. She is now 17 (as of 1/10/2023 ) years old and stands over 6 feet tall. After turning down every other major record producer and even Disney World, She has just recently been signed with Republic Records and she has just released her first self written single with republic Records entitled "Million Miles " , this is the link to that one ( kzbin.info/www/bejne/hJmug5trj9mojc0 ) plus a new release this month April of '7 th Heaven" link: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mH6bda2Dh8ecf8U She is a rare special God sent gift to the world!!! , Angelina is at level of vocal artistry seldom if ever seen for a young singer , besides her other talents , She is Norway's youngest published author at around 9 to 10 years old, she plays , piano, violin, flute, and guitar . Angelina does her musical arrangements and has been often observed directing professional musicians playing for her as to what she wants in a song. she is always in command when she performs is very humble respectful manner to band members. Angelina is like no other I heave ever witnessed in her many abilities for one so young .she touches one right down to their heart and soul when she sings. :To bring you up to date on her background: (Angelina a short history ); Angelina has been singing since she was 1.5 years old (18 months started singing a Whitney Huston song , video on you tube of this here is the linkkzbin.info/www/bejne/jHvNeGlueculY5o at 1:55 on this video is her at 1.5 years old ) later she was taken by jazz and started singing jazz classics as her grandmother introduced her to jazz tunes. Her singing is her life and her passion . her mother tried to get her to sing nursery songs and she just flat out refused to involve her self in that nonsense. She is her own driving force no one dictates to her what she does in her singing or preparations, it is all her 110%. the following are her own songs . Won Norway's got talent at 7 to 8 years old has over 125 videos on line plus three of her own compositions (not including the one she just released from Republic Records) and two that were written for her to sing , the first 3 she wrote and arranged herself, the last two were written for her to sing: 1, Shield ,, kzbin.info/www/bejne/ooLXhpWMgMdjrNU 2. Oslo,, kzbin.info/www/bejne/bIHWh6hqnrOgjpI ( A song dedicated to her home town Oslo , Norway) 3. What Is Life,, .kzbin.info/www/bejne/eKeTo2ptgLNqiKM 4. Above the water,, kzbin.info/www/bejne/iXSWd2OYgLCeabc 5. Song for A ("A" standing for Angelina) ,, kzbin.info/www/bejne/eKCWnpuuhbJgq6M ( plus a few more recent originals from her not listed here) Angelina had over 500 million views of her singing videos before her performance on AGT The Champions now her views are in the billions . Angelina has been well known all over the world except in America not so much up until her AGT Champions mini concert. When performed her own arrangements of " Bohemian Rhapsody" and "Yellow brick Road". She sings bare foot since she was 6 years old to honor a bare foot orphan he met girl around her own age around 6 years old whom had no shoes and had scars on her feet, she weighing people on a bathroom scale to support her and her siblings. Angelina at six years old took her shoes off and gave them to this poor girl, and Angelina has performed on stage in honor of the pledge she made to her not to sing on stage with shoes on form then on . Angelina has honored that pledge for last 8 years . Angelina takes on a different voice for each song she covers to give homage to the song, and never tries to show off her vocal abilities but always gives each song its due respect. Angelina has an octave range to reach any song she takes on and her low note ability is just mind blowing for a pre-teen or now at just a mere 17 years as of Jan. 10 ,2023. Angelina can sing any genre and excel at it many times better than the original artist. Enjoy this 9th wonder of the musical world in song.

Welcome to the Angelina Jordan rabbit hole. She's the real deal, and imo (and many others as well) she's the best female vocalist/artist to come around in the past century - already there - and she's only 17. You will move from impressed and a little confused to completely blown away after you listen to her a few more times. This is an original song, written after the passing of her grandfather. Angelina always writes and/or arranges her music (she has done that since she was very little). Her fans are called her Angels, and are devoted, caring, informed, and wonderful humans. She has 170+ covers and originals here on YT. One of my favorite phrases (I read it from an Angel's comment), Angelina doesn't cover songs - she uncovers songs. She's amazing. You'll get lots of recommendations from her fans on what to react to next - pick whatever you want. I might suggest listening to her cover of Screamin' Jay Hawkins' "I Put a Spell on You" (the black and white version). She was barely 9 when she recorded that masterpiece. Thanks for your reactions! See you again soon! Peace

I can tell by the number number of comments that you have been given a lot of information about her. Based on your reaction/comments, here’s my info for you. Yes she should send sings with a lot of emotion, it’s one of the most bings, love about her singing. She is self taught. Although she has been amazing for over 10 years, she turned 17 on January 10th, I believe early on she learned how to mimic the sounds and styles form the many great artists she listened to. Probably not fully understanding what she was doing. In a very short period of time she knew very well what she was doing and clearly developed her own unique style voice. It does not matter what genre or song, you know it’s her. She does her own arrangements and chooses the songs songs. She’s a master at improvising and rewriting lyrics to be more appropriate. Yes this is one her original songs. It does not matter what song of hers, regardless of age , that will not leave amazed. ❤❤

Angelina did indeed write this song about her maternal grandfather, who recently passed away. She started singing at eighteen months of age and won Norway's Got Talent at age 8. Just so you can see where she came from, I recommend you check out her arrangement of Screamin' Jay Hawkins' classic blues song, I Put A Spell On You, recorded when she was 9 years old. It must be the black & white video, though, as she's never sung the song the same way twice: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pKipnaJ5hb2tedU

Another one that she wrote that came out about the same time was seventh heaven you’ll like that! Check out her nine-year-old version of screaming Jay Hawkins. I put a spell on you the black-and-white version. Just so you will know she arranges the music she covers even at age 9. Bohemian Rhapsody on America’s got talent the champions this will give you a wide base. She makes covers as if they are hers. Loved your Technical understanding of what she was doing.

Your perception of the music just coming out of her mouth is on point. She closes her eyes & goes to that other World she talks about. She never sings a song the same way twice because she sings it on the fly, as she feels it. There are many performances of her at home with an acoustic guitarist, mostly ages 11 (with Egil Clausen in Norway)& 12 (with Ivan Mendez in LA) where they just decide on a song to sing minutes before they perform & record it for the 1st time, while Angelina reads the lyrics. Apparently a 2nd take is only needed if the guitarist messes up since they say she never does. Her digital mentors & teachers on KZbin were primarily Billy Holiday, but Ella Fitzgerald, Louis Armstrong, Shirley Bassey, Dinah Washington, Frank Sinatra, Elvis Presley, Michael Jackson, Whitney Houston, Amy Winehouse, Beyoncé & Adele are all major influences. I've never seen anything like her, I'm just so happy I discovered her 5 years ago & listen to her every day.

It is interesting to to see a first time Angelina Jordan (AJ) reactor and then scroll through all the comments. Most commenters will acknowledge your surprise and suggest songs to listen to next. Some commentators have written detailed information on AJ and a chronology of songs she has covered while growing up. The one comment I don’t recall ever seeing is someone telling the reactor to, instead of going to “this song or that” just take a moment and think of an artist you like. For example, maybe you like one of the following: Amy Winehouse, Queen, Elvis Presley, Fred Astaire, Patsy Cline, Dolly Parton, Screaming Jay Hawkins, Beatles, Michel Jackson, Adele, John Legend, Elton John, James Brown, Aretha Franklin, Billy Holiday, Frank Sinatra, Lana Del Ray, Mama and Papas, Bing Crosby, Glenn Miller, Bobby Vinton, Rihanna, Doris Day, Charles, Judy Garland, Whitney Houston, Muddy Waters, Jackson 5, Miley Cyrus, Etta James, Chris Isaak, Lou Rawls, Carol King, etc. Search “AJ covers X”. Listen to the song and move on to your next favorite artist. The list above is incomplete but gives you an idea of AJ’s range.

Hi John, glad you took a peek down Angelina's rabbit hole. she was 15 on this song, she wrote it herself after her grandfather died. She won Norway's Got Talent at the age of 8 with songs by Billie Holiday, Nancy Sinatra, and the song Summertime from the movie Porky and Bess You are at the beginning and I hope you continue the journey because there is a lot to discover she is the best singer in the world is my opinion) but you will find out for yourself and believe me you will become as addicted as all other fans (angels) to her voice, she will also be the barefoot angel with the 1000 Called voices, why she always performs barefoot is another story, she can adapt and improve her voice to any song and also transport many emotions and she has not only written around 180 covers but also 5 originals by her and 2 written for her that all are amazing and legendary even now and there is a lot to tell, i look forward to further reactions and have subscribed to you now, greetings from germany, by the way she is 17 years old now.

Nothing Angelina does is involuntary. She is very much in control of her choices and artistry. And yes, she wrote this dedicated to her late grandfather and dedicated to anyone who has lost someone. Great reaction to a vocal tour-de-force! You've done it now. You have fallen into the vortex of Angelina Jordan who arguably brings the most confident, versatile, seemingly effortless, and fearless vocal artistry found today (whether measured across artists, genres, or decades). You may think this an exaggeration but listen to a few more of her many performances (160+ covers plus original songs - all on YT) and you will see! She has been performing at a high level all over the world since age 8 when she won Norway's Got Talent singing Billie Holiday, Nancy Sinatra, and Gershwin. It is the rare singer that can, as Angelina has done, go from Queen to "Screamin" Jay Hawkins to Adele to Elvis to Whitney Houston to Michael Jackson to Etta James to James Brown to Amy Winehouse to the Beatles (and many others in between) and do them all justice! If you want to hear music, listen to anyone. If you want to feel music, listen to Angelina. She will stagger you with her ability to find and bring forth the 'essence', the emotional message of nearly any song. You have far to go with Angelina. She is equally comfortable and equally able to impact us whether singing a cappella, accompanied only by a piano or guitar, in front of professional studio musicians or a 40-piece military band. With her immense vocal toolkit, arranging ability (yeah, that too, since about 8yo or so) and the work ethic to make what she does only 'seem' effortless, she will hopefully be touching hearts for a long time to come. Why God has performed the miracle of touching the world with one of such talent, musical IQ, commitment, and generosity as Angelina we can wonder but we must all marvel. Welcome aboard the AJ train! Please react to more of her impressive library. You won't be disappointed.

And that's to put it mildly. Who could have guessed that she just turned 17 ? But she's been performing with a mic since the age of 18 months, so it kinda figures. I strongly believe that Angelina will be considered the G.O.A.T. of the music industry before she's done. She's THAT good. Subbed for more! Love from Norway ♥♥♥♥♥
