So I know Sean is a guitar guy, could you react with him for Pink Venom, Blackpink (I know you did solo reaction), but I want to see if he can identify that crazy guitar that Rose is playing in the video 🤣

[@RustyShacklefordChannel]

The style of this video was a great tribute to Elvis. The Priscilla hair, the red guitar, even the outfit the pianist is wearing. BTW: that guy on piano is Rob Christie - The Director of Republic Records in LA. I enjoyed your cover at the end too :) I like that you covered Angelina's version instead of the original ;) Angelina's ability to re-arrange a song is as impressive as her vocals. She is an artist in so many ways.

Nice reaction Angelina is in my opinion the best out there today her style is so versatile that's why you don't get bored with her and can listen to her sing the same song again and again a living legend

[@mrtonyo1965]

Angelina’s outfit is homage to Elvis who had the black leather outfit on his comeback show in 1967. Her hair is Pricilla hair, and the guitar is a 1950’s red guitar, that Elvis played on his comeback show. Angelina is simple wonderful.

[@MONTE007100]

[@steenagers7270]

Angelina always makes you pay attention to the lyrics. She doesn't cover songs - she uncovers songs ❤️

[@OleOlson121]

Pure Velvet Perfection! This vocal arrangement was all Angelina, I have no doubt in collaboration with a stellar team including Rob Christie & Mery Zamani her Grandmother. She is a Master Storyteller. The video is shot in the same Antique Store that she did 'My Funny Valentine' on Valentine’s Day. I believe it is in LA near her home. I believe the girls in the video represent Angelina's Journey from infancy to present through the classics of music history. Thus the Antique store, She grew up studying and performing these classics. Did you notice that right foot raise it''s heal to cradle the guitar a couple of times in the performance. I was waiting for her to throw in a little shake to it in homage to the King. Could that have been intentional? That is Rob Christie on piano. Sister Juliette and a couple of Uncle Michael's Babies. I think that makes them cousins not nieces. Full Black Leather Bodysuit, the guitar from his concert in 68 and the hair a homage to Priscilla Presley. Yeah! She can bring tears to your eyes.

[@karinamcwilliams5509]

I LOVE her voice it's magical. It brings me peace and 😊 joy

[@rodhampton56]

A little background, She is paying homage to Elvis. The antique shop with the over the top chandeliers and gilded mirrors would be Found in Elvis's home graceland, comma the black leather suit And guitar were Elvis and her hairdo is the same hairdo that elvis's wife Priscilla had at that time in the sixties Besides guitar she also plays the piano.

[@ericdavison5434]

"Suspicious Minds" written, recorded and released by Mark James (1968). Elvis recorded and released the song in 1969. The video references to Elvis are Angelina's black suit and red guitar and well as Rob's red suit which all appeared on Elvis' TV Comeback Concert. Angelina's hair is an homage to Pricilla Presley. Angelina rearranged the lyrics order, to good effect in my opinion.

[@mih1961]

Written and originally recorded by Mark James in 1968, “Suspicious Minds” is a cover by Elvis Presley, released as a single in 1969. I like AJs version much more.

[@tlo3571]

The video is a snapshot of the 68 Comeback Special. Black leather suit, the piano player is wearing a replica of the suit the back up players wore in the sit down portion of the show. The red guitar is spot on. The red and gold setting reminds me of the poster of the new Elvis movie.

Very nice reaction guys! Her Grandma Mery helped produced this. She used the same store (Melrose Gallery) she used for her My Funny Valentine video. Her sister Juliette was the older girl and the 2 younger girls are her Uncle Mike's kids. 2- time Grammy winner Rob Christie is on piano once again. The beehive hairstyle was to honor Priscilla Presley and the time period she met Elvis. The black suit and red guitar was a classic look for Elvis from his comeback concert. What a performance and homage to The King! On a side note, you have a troll in your comments section called theMan. He jumps from one Angelina reactor to another leaving negative comments, misinformation, and lies for some strange reason. Please pay no attention to this troll. He was going by the name NobelPrize, but he just changed it thinking he could fool AJ fans that know about him.

[@tomfassoulis8596]

Hey guys, first of all this is one of the most incredible videos I’ve seen on YT. The opening verse just sounded like the best female vocal I’ve ever heard. Remember she’s still only 16…

[@ooshta]

Great reaction you 2 & love your comments to. . Love all of Angie's nods to Elvis, also his wife Priscilla & daughter Lisa Marie & Angie growing up. The Elvis Easter Eggs. That was all Angie's hair. (I remember my mom doing that back than. It's a long process. If you react to Angie's newer Official cover, you'll see all her hair. “I have nothing” by Whitney Houston kzbin.info/www/bejne/n4mTmGxvn7NlbLc Official cover. Looks like they even gave her the rights to her version of the song. Dropped 7-23-22. She’s 16. I love how Angie put in some of her jazzy back phrasing in it also. About all the Elvis eggs, here's some of them. Angie gave a lot of respect & homage to Elvis. Angie really blew this one away. I love what she did with this story This was filmed in the same place that she did “My funny valentine” at Melrose Gallery and Antiques in West Hollywood CA. There's a picture of (age about 1-2) baby Lisa Marie Presley on a golden couch like Angie's cousin sat on with a white dress. There was one of Lisa also (when she’s about 3) with white dress & she had curls like Angie’s other cousin Athena had (from her uncle Michael's kids). Plus it acted as a double meaning for us watching Angie growing up. Her sister Juilette was the older one in the white dress like Angie was in, when she was 10-12 before she changed at 13 & her, her mom Sara & grandma Mery made clothes for her performances. (Angie made this modern & nostalgic at the same time. She’s emotes the story, for she is a true master story teller & master word smith) The black jumpsuit & red guitar is for the welcome back tour in 1968. The hair was for Priscilla his wife & Angie sitting on the couch too, Chandeliers, mirrors & furniture was for Graceland, the Piano player Rob Christie wearing red like Elvis's piano player & you'll even see that Angie's (Elvis stance) put her leg out & bent like Elvis did. Angelina did a lot of homework & paid a lot of respect & gave us a lot of Easter eggs & there’s still more. As she usually does on her videos. Angelina is just amazing, beyond words & other singers/writers/artists/people. (Like your cover at the end, it was nice & different also) {She's Angelina Jordan Astar} The barefoot Angel with a 1000 voice Check out more from Angie’s 3 concerts in Norway, Angie even opened her 7-7-22 concert with a new cover called “Mount Everest” kzbin.info/www/bejne/eoq5qaGPZZt1jdk You should watch the original short song & see what makes what she does even more amazing. Here’s the the original by Labrinth. kzbin.info/www/bejne/aqqzi6ZuZtF-adk Her 3 concerts are 7-1-22 in Kurbadhagen, 7-7-22 at Kongsberg & 7-10-22 again at Kurbadhagen. Angie had a lot of fun & so did the fans. (Mattias Axelsson, Vidar Enerud, Kathrine Angeltveit & Trond Andersen are good channels to start with They have some good recordings & video's).

tysm!!

[@davidcochran6291]

She plays in her TikTok's a lot. This is a Elvis tribute so the muted string thing was a nod to Rock a Billy that Elvis was instrumental in making. Angelina is a competent guitar player. Depending on her interest I getting better, she could become better. Angelina plays 4-5 different instruments. She is also a competent piano player. Then there's flute and violin. I may have missed one in there. She plays guitar in her concerts. That first line exploded in my soul and I literally 'burst' into tears. Angelina and Daneliya Tuleshova are the two young singers that I've watched grow into amazing vocalists that can move me to tears faster than any other singers I've known. For me tears are my goosebumps or chills, I don't get those except when it is cold. I'm wired funny and tears are my default response to greatness, or the overcoming of a seeming insurmountable barrier. That being said, it isn't my response to everybody. Plus I'm not exactly sure all the time what it is that has tripped that switch. O.K. my ADHD has run wild here enough. Thanks for your reaction.

[@AndreaSilvestro]

ty for watching!

[@103mrg]

david I think Angelina dropped the violin and flute many years ago. As for being "competent" at playing an instrument, the word is really quite vague. To a professional musician it means one thing; to non-musicians, something entirely different. There's no doubt she can play. Whether she's a "competent" pianist or guitarist, I'm dubious.

[@davidcochran6291]

@@103mrg I understand. I meant compared to someone who can't play and sing without having to fish around for notes. Hardly what a professional musician would consider competent. So to me she's competent to you, I assume you are a professional, not so much.

I got a couple of kids that's been doing some dance shows with some similar hair tricks, and if I'm not mistaken they've basically put a big black foam rubber ball on her back head and covered it with her hair. She does a fantastic job of revitalizing Elvis' iconic hit. That tone and breathy voice control, and lifting the lyrics up like never before ... so wonderful to see.

What a Tribute to the King himself ELVIS. Who better to grace us with a WINNING PERFORMANCE..but none other than ANGELINA JORDAN Our barefoot Princesess / Queen of Jazz & Soul. It's like a fast forward motion of Angelina Jordan growing up in a place of wonderment and fasination of finding hidden gems & treasures beneath the dust & a reviving of the old giving the things of the past a new lease on life brining them into the 21st Century.

[@AndreaSilvestro]

[@erikcouvret]

Angelina has covered many songs of Elvis. I have a feeling that when she focuses on an artist she wants to cover, she notices all kinds of details, even unconsciously. For instance she can have the same loose jaw and lips Elvis had and that can make her face look a bit the same. She had the breathy sounds of Michael Jackson inbetween the words when she recorded Heal the world. The detailed inflections of the notes from the way Billie Holiday sings Angelina could reproduce at age seven were insanely good. But still in the end, she makes the songs her own and Angelinizes them in a unique way! I remembered from my youth how Elvis looked and was dressed in the same leather clothes, had the same guitar and his band was dressed with the outfit the same as this pianist Rob Christie here, (all after Elvis made a huge come back) and indeed his wife had the same kind of hair (behive) as Angelina has here. There are probably more clues ment to be a hommage to the King! If you saw the movie you understand Angelina better and if you have seen a lot of her covers you understand the movie better. By the way: the music starts the same way, with the chorus from this song, slowed down the same way, sang by a woman! And the chord progression by the pianist arrangement is a bit more advanced than just a I, IV, V or II, V, I sequence as you noticed by now, but you are right, the original is simple! 😉

One person said she doesn't cover songs, she uncovers them. Brilliant

[@albertphilippi4371]

Elvis Presley and his producer Felton Jarvis cleverly covered this Mark James song in 1969, Elvis' last #1 hit in the US and #7 of his most successful songs. Felton Jarvis took the original arrangement completely and pushed the song with more speed and additional instruments (wind instruments, violin etc.) and a spectacular backing choir (in the studio version) and of course with Elvis Presley's voice. Pianist Rob Christie changed the musical arrangement and Angelina the vocal arrangement, but she didn't change the lyrics. Angelina changes the lyric structure, starting with the bridge and giving the song a different meaning. Once again many people hear and understand the song when Angelina tells the story. 💯 *AJ* 💯

Update: Of course I meant "don't hear and understand" 🤗

[@ronjones1077]

Mark James wrote and release it in 1968. Elvis covered it in 1969 and it was his last number one song. Neil had nothing to do with this song and never even covered it. I’ve been a big fan of him for over 50 years, have all his records and seen him live in concert. You may be thinking of Solitary Man that Neil wrote. I used to have a little band and I recorded that song on my reel to reel tape recorder singing and playing guitar sound on sound & double tracking.

Angelina can do no wrong! She’s a musical genius! Hearing the words sung this way is haunting! Her hair is reflective of Priscilla Presley, and the black leather is Elvis! ❤

[@terrymigliorino8498]

Absolutely what I expected. She made this her own song and she did it beautifully. I noticed Juliet sitting there she is going to be as beautiful as Angelina one day. Elvis' version is great and, and it still is one of my favorites. but Angelina's version is equally great and is definitely her own. When I first heard this song I loved it and put it at #3 on my playlist (Angelina Jordan Playlist by Terry M.), about midday I moved it up to #1. The main thing that changed my mind was the power in her voice. I'm not talking about loudness I'm talking about the power she has regardless of how loud or soft she sings. This is a quality that I haven't heard from anyone in my 82 years. This voice has become so unique that it is totally unmatched. Her phrasing in the last bridge is great. And she got Elvis’s ‘Oh Yea’ at the end of the song. The pianist is Rob Christie (3 Grammys), he is the head of the Republic Record department that is responsible for Angelina and other singers. The two small kids are her uncle Mike's kids, and the older girl is Angelina's sister.

That’s Rob Christie (Republic Records) on the perfectly tuned piano. This is just a super tribute to the “King.” The antique shop where AJ is uncovering the old (song) and making it new, the beehive hair style of Priscilla Presley, the red guitar and microphone are similar to the ones Elvis used in his comeback tour. The black jumpsuit AJ wore, the red pinwheel jumpsuit that Elvis wore in “Suspicious Minds” are all things that can relate back to Elvis. This girl is a genius. IMO - she is the greatest vocalist in the world.

[@gregorygardner9373]

Thanks for another nice reaction to & appreciation of another masterful reinterpretation & performance by Angelina - this time of a classic Elvis hit. Definitely a family production - the Executive Producer Mery Zamani is Angelina's grandmother, the 2 younger girls are her cousins & the older girl is Angelina's younger sister Juliette. Great tribute to Elvis - as noted by Angelina's beehive hairdo reminiscent of Priscilla Presley & Angelina's black leather jumpsuit & red Hagstrom guitar just like Elvis in his comeback tour. As you're well aware, Angelina has covered a number of songs popularized by Elvis - including the Elvis version of How Great Thou Art (which I believe Angelina sang in the same key as Elvis). Thank you. And may GOD continue to watch over & bless Angelina Jordan.

[@torejorgensen5344]

The vibe of Angelina's version is "We can't go on together, and it brakes my heart." Elvis' version has more of a "We can't go on together if you don't put your act together, but I'll just find somebody else, so who cares?"-vibe.

[@papatomthune4924]

From Iowa, USA; 1. An important thing to remember about AJ is that she owns the rights to everything she sings and with aquired permissions for covers of other singers. 2. She refused to sign for a record deal through AGT and they relented and invited her to sing anyway. 3. She began singing at 18 months and due to her grandmothers influence, she was drawn to and fell in love with jazz and blues music. 4. She has been arranging most, if not all of her music performances since she was 8 years old. 5. Currently in 2022 she still performs barefoot, sews her own clothes, (the cloth is designed by her grandmother) and she stands 6 feet tall at 15 yeats old! 6. We all hope to enjoy her performances for many years to come. 7. BTW I'm 80 and have been involved privately in music since age 7.

Angelina’s short clips on Tick tock she is often playing a guitar, I’ve been attending Angelina’s live concerts in Norway 🇳🇴 recently and her stage presence is phenomenal her live vocals amazing and she is often playing a guitar, Norway 🇳🇴 an awesome place to visit!

Angelina‘s grandma was the executive producer of this video. The antique store is owned by someone in their family. The three young girls r her two cousins & sister. She also pays tribute to Elvis by wearing blue suede boots which you can see when she lays on the loveseat ♥️🇨🇦♥️

Great reaction Andrea and company. Your little clip interjected in the middle was refreshing. Thanks

[@AndreaSilvestro]

thanks! glad you liked it

[@larrypifer1103]

My interpretation of the symbolism of this music video: First, and foremost; Angelina Jordan at 16 is the epitome of a Storytelling ARTIST, and she has the ability to take us by the hand and lead us down an imaginary path that we visualize as reality. The remarkable fact is that we experience this in each of her performances. In this video we see her as a married woman in her mid to late 20s. As the video starts out, we see dishes, and it is a symbol of a home. As AJ sings the phrase “Were caught in a trap, I can’t walk out” we see 3 small children, this to me is a marriage where the children come first. If it were AJ by herself, she would not stay in a relation without trust.

Absolutely amazing performance from Angelina, the first two little girls are Angelina’s cousins her managers children, the eldest girl is Angelina’s sister Juliette, production input from Angelina’s Grandma who is a talented, love how Angelina pays tribute to Elvis with her black outfit and red guitar 🎸 and Pricilla Presley hair style, Cover of a Cover as the original song writer and vocalist didn’t achieve with his version, then Elvis covered the song and it was a hit ! Great reaction thanks 🙏

So pleased you have done this reaction and love the way your entertain during it, you are so great together and your cover was lovely. As to the way she performs , I find it such an amazing version, it just gets me from start to finish and is my current favourite from her 170 plus videos but no doubt her next one will be even better if that is at all possible.

[@AndreaSilvestro]

thanks so much for watching! glad we could react to it!!

Thank you for another grand reaction to Angelina. I was delighted that you performed the song in the same style. The "upbeat" style used by Elvis is certainly not supported by the lyrics. The outfit worn by Angelina was much like that worn by Elvis and the hairstyle was - called a beehive and very popular in the 1960s - was the same as that worn by Priscilla Presley on many occasions. I think the colour of the jumpsuit word by Rob Christie, the p;pianist, is the same as worn by the band associated with Elvis. The song was written by Mark James. In the Wikipedia entry of the origins of the song, he is said to have remarked "That late one night, he was fooling around on his Fender guitar and using his Hammond organ pedals for a bass line and came up with what he thought was a catchy melody. At the time, he was married to his first wife but still had feelings for his childhood sweetheart, who was married back in Houston. James's wife had suspicions about his feelings. He felt it was a confusing time for him and that all three were "caught in this trap that they could not walk out of." Other singers covering this song invariably base their performance on that of Elvis, in that it is very "upbeat". Angelina took a very different path in that she read and understood the lyrics and what Mark James intended when writing them . To my mind, her rendition is much truer to the emotions of the song. The children appearing in the video were Angelina's cousins Aurora (first) and then Athena - daughters of her uncle Michael Astar, and then her sister Juliette. I would hazard a guess that they were included to emphasise that children are very important to Angelina and her family. Confession! I have never been a great fan of Elvis Presley, although I do like some of his earlier recordings, and I had never heard of the song "Suspicious minds" but knew that Angelina would completely take ownership of it, and she did. It was beautiful. After listening to it several times, I decided to download the lyrics to see whether she kept to the original structure. She didn't, and the song is all the better for it. For me, that she started with the Bridge of the song is very significant and, I feel, very indicative of Angelina's "up front" transparency. She was declaring that it was important that their love did not die, and then carries on to say why she feels as she does. Others first say how they feel and then, almost as an afterthought, assure their love they don't want it to end. For me, it is whether I feel the singer is genuine about the situation and wishes it could be resolved or whether the singer understands the situation but thinks the blame is on her/his partner but feels the need to assure them they don't want it to end (until somebody else comes along).

[@dojoswitzer]

As some other comments suggest, I think the word ‘cover’ in Angelina’s world is now relegated to live concerts and TikTok experimentation videos. Anything professionally recorded is now a ‘remake’.

[@rickrack4812]

Hair.... Priscilla Presley.... In that antique store is somewhere near LA. Rob Christie's outfit is and Omaha's to Elvis's backup people on his comeback show or toor... Is there are numerous Easter eggs in this video Cannot take him out of the picture or equation he has 2 Grammy Awards I think

[@jetteart]

You have to listen to her How Great Thou Art. Her deep register is to die for at 12 in the same key as Elvis

[@johnvasi]

As others have noted, this is an extended tribute to Elvis visually and vocally, but Angelina’s gift is her ability to respect the originals while giving us something that’s completely her own. I liken this to her cover of Bohemian Rhapsody. She dismantled the completely iconic original, slowed it way down, and with stunningly beautiful vocals gave us a new way to love the song. She doesn’t compete with the original-she respectfully reinterprets it with unique vocals that are Angelina’s alone. And she gives us our new favorite versions of songs that we thought should not be touched. Billie Jean is another great example. I agree, Sean, that the original of Suspicious Minds was never on my favorite list, but Angelina can make anything sound good-even Elvis.

[@AndreaSilvestro]

Angelina is amazing :)

[@cliffdavidson15]

If you actually go back to the 60's that was Priscilla's hair style and the pose was similar to one of Priscilla in a magazine article. Amy Winehouse wasn't even an idea then.

[@louisbrooks8824]

History counts. The beehive hair is Priscilla Presley, the black outfit is Elvis all the way, the guitar is a copy of the one he used in his 1968 comeback tour. The pianist is Rob Christie, head of Republic Records and Paramount Music Studio and 2 times Grammy winner. She signed with Republic last year.

The two of you sound great with that Enya acoustic! I agree that the piano really adds an emotional element. Check out Sigrid's acoustic version of "Dynamite" for another example of that. Keep up the awesome work!

Hi Andrea and Sean, nice reaction!! I've heard this song at least a hundred times, and every time, that opening note drives me crazy... Which brings me to your impromptu cover of this song.. I liked that you extended the notes on some of the phrasing when you sang it, that slightly drawn out melody is really good... 😁. Thank you!

Rob Christie Playing Piano: That dude playing the piano is Rob Christie Republic Records Studio Director at Universal Music Group Manhattan Beach, California, and he has been working with AJ since she signed with the largest record company in the world at the age of 14, two years ago. Rob was the MC of AJ Christmas Show that aired Dec 23, of 21. AJ’s Christmas Show that live-streamed on Dec 23 of 21 had some of the most important musicians of our time: Frank Sinatra's drummer for 6 years, and sun in-law of the late Henry Mancini, Greg Field has won 9 Grammys, and the bass player, Chuck Berghofer who also played for Sinatra for 6 years, and toured with Barbara Streisand, accompanied AJ on her Christmas Show, and they stated that she had the "storytelling ability of the greats, Streisand, Fitzgerald, Vaughan, including Sinatra, to name a few. The main pianist, a five-time nominated for Grammys, Shelly Berg, stated in all his years working with the greatest vocalist, he had never encountered a talent like AJ. Did I forget to mention Jimmy Z, the famous Sax Player who worked with Rod Steward, Etta James, the Eurythmics, and Doctor Dre, was part of the band for the show? Jimmy stated that AJ was the best he has ever played for. Rob Christie Republic Records Studio Director at Universal Music Group Manhattan Beach, California played the guitar, and was the MC of the show. (I can't list the complete backgrounds on all the band members because it would take several pages to do them justice.) Angelina stated that she would rather perform than take a breath, and she has never been forced to perform, it has been her decision.

[@johannesdippenaar5087]

Thank you for your reaction and appreciation of Angelina's cover. If you do some research about the cover songs of Angelina before listen to her , you will learn a lot of the old classic songs that was before your time. Nearly every thing in this video have some symbolism and is a tribute to Elvis. Sorry, no Amy W but Priscilla Presley's beehive hair style of that time.

Just listened to the original Elvis version. Sean you are so right--Angelina's is so much more powerful I was not crazy about Elvi's version-- his version just did not fit the words, hers really lets you feel the words, the story of the song. Angelina not only has an amazing voice and soulfulness, but she is a musical genius, arranger, performer just all around creative force. I am open for all she has to give! You two too!

Just an interesting facts about Angelina she speaks four languages she paints she writes she actually offered a book when she was 9 years old they're the youngest author in Norway history she takes her inspiration from her grandmother who if you notice on the video produced the video she also plays the violin the guitar the flute and the piano I have no doubt in my mind that she had a lot to do with how this was put together she writes a lot of her own stuff I can't wait for her album I'm so excited I'm 75 years old I've never heard anything like this in my entire life I think she has the potential to become one of the greatest artists in the in the world

[@dbcooper69]

Angelina sang it in its original intention, as Mark James wrote and sang it. After he released it, it didn't catch on, Elvis put his fast spin to it and it did catch on.

[@jeffreywoerner1353]

The beehive haircut first appeared in 1960 and became the "in" hairstyle of the 60s. Angelina Jordan, with the black leather and the guitar, was modeling herself after Elvis. At the same time, her beehive hairstyle was a portrayal of the style worn by Pricilla Presley and other women in the 60s decade.

[@johnhurtme]

The hairdo is called a beehive, it was popular in the 50s and 60s, and is an homage to Elvis as his wife wore the same hairdo

[@randygumaer282]

Elvis's version was more uptempo than Angelina's but she kept the melody and used the bridge of the song to start. The black leather outfit is a nod to Elvis's '68 comeback special, and her hair is a nod to Pericilla Pressley's '60s hairstyle. The red guitar is the same as the one used in the current ELVIS movie and the young girls are Angelina's little cousins, and the older girl is Angelina's younger sister. The piano player in red is a nod to Elvis's band members who all dressed the same when performing in this case he matched the red guitar probably for the visual contrast in the video.
