She's flown under the radar for most people as she's just finishing up highschool this year. She signed with Republic when she was 14 and they agreed not to promote her until she finished school. Well, its almost launch time. Until then, she has put out loads of material on youtube for you to check out. Enjoy this wonder of nature, my friend. I have a feeling she'll find a way into your heart...

Angelina was 9 years old in this performance - Her nationality is Norwegian but is fluent in English even at this age - This song was not arranged for her - she wrote the arrangement based on listening to the original Screamin' Jay Hawkins version - in fact, at the beginning of the video you see Angelina writing down some last-minute changes and it is read by the bandleader. You also notice that her own handwritten notes are on the music stand in front of her as she sings. For more insight into how Angelina works, here is a rehearsal video with the same band at the same age (9 yrs old) - You will see that she is aware of what each musician is doing and gives them some instructions. There are English subtitles as the spoken language is Norwegian: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iXLOi3d3ja90aqc

Angelina recorded this when she was 9 years 2 months old. Sooner or later, you're going to need to go back and watch her version of I Who Have Nothing, recorded when she was six. She won Norway's Got Talent at age 7. That's Screamin' Jay Hawkins on the candle she's holding up. You will soon learn that she is always barefoot when she performs. She made a vow to do this when she was younger (yeah, younger) when she was in Iran and saw a little girl weighing people for change. She asked the girl why she was barefoot, and the child explained that her parents had died and that she was the oldest of 5 children and responsible for feeding all of them. She couldn't afford shoes. They were roughly the same size, so Angelina took off her shoes and give them to the girl with the promise that she would always sing barefoot. The little Iranian girl reported that she had wanted to be a doctor, but that was no longer possible. She would, however, pray for Angelina's dream of becoming a singer. When Angelina got home, she wrote a book about the experience, becoming the youngest published author in Norway. She also started a charity to get shoes for children who didn't have any, and she kept her vow to never wear shoes while singing until all children have them. I'm sure you'll get more information from others who know more. I apologize if anything I've said is incorrect; there are others more knowledgeable, but they haven't shown up yet. I did my best.

jeris Yes, you have written mis-information. Please, in the future, if you're going to post a comment, verify your facts; don't rely on rumour, speculation or innuendo, or just something you read in someone else's comment. ....She had turned 7 when she recorded I Who Have Nothing. She won NGT at age 8. After she gave her shoes away, she made some entries in her diary about the experience. These were used in her book that she wrote a few years later. There is no record of her ever making a vow about performing barefooted until all children have them; however, she's been quoted on numerous occasions and talked about her decision to perform shoeless in various interviews always explaining that it acts as a great reminder to her of all the underprivileged in the world.

Angelina Jordan is 17 years old. She sang yesterday in Paris at the ceremony - FIFA Football Awards 2022. A barefoot princess with a hypnotic voice. She was only 9 years old when she performed this song. It is her tribute to Screamin' Jay Hawkins, an American singer/songwriter. He wrote and performed it in 1956 and Angelina based her performance on the original, although she did make some subtle alterations to both lyrics and melody. As you continue your journey of discovering Angelina, you will come to realise that she does her own arrangements of most of the cover songs she sings. The differences may not be immediately discernible on first listening to them, but they are there. There may be a subtle change in tempo or tone, or more inflexion on some words, or a phrase may differ in pitch from the original. The amount of control that Angelina has over her voice cannot be measured. She never hurries a song. She sings in such a way that the emotions in the lyrics are felt by the listener. In this video did you notice:Angelina finishing some notes and handing them to the pianist, who smiled as he read them? They were her wishes (instructions) to the band how she wished therm to play the music. In the band, she was called a boss. Born Angelina Jordan Astar on January 10, 2006 in Oslo, Norway to her Norwegian mother, Sara Astar and her Swedish father, Gerry Christian Slattman. Angelina started singing around 18 months of age, after listening to Whitney Houston on KZbin. She quickly became obsessed with listening to music videos and her maternal grandmother, Mery Zamani got Angelina interested in classic jazz. Mery Zamani is Iranian and was a prodigy as an artist and poet while growing up in Iran. Angelina attended the Oslo Waldorf School and participated in the Oslo School of Music and Performing Arts after-school program, where starting around age 4, she had training in music but no vocal training. Her teachers were smart enough to not attempt to change what she was doing vocally. More recently she along with her grandmother have designed and made the clothing she wears on stage. Why Angelina always performs barefoot At age 6, while traveling in the Middle East with her mother and grandmother, Angelina noticed a girl around her age standing on the side of the road, asking people to step on her bathroom scale to be weighed in hopes of getting some money. Angelina took off her shoes so as to not get the scale dirty and stepped on the scale many times to make the girl feel better. Angelina befriends the girl who was not wearing shoes and has scars on her feet, and learns she is an orphan. The orphan girl tells Angelina how beautiful she thinks her shoes are. Angelina says her shoes don’t fit her well and she wants to give her shoes to the orphan girl who thanks Angelina for giving her the shoes. Angelina asked the girl what she wanted to be when she grew up and the girl replied, “I want to become a doctor, but that will never happen since I have no parents and I have siblings so I have to do whatever is necessary for us to survive.” Angelina told the girl to never give up on her dreams. The poor girl asked Angelina what she wanted to be when she grew up and Angelina replied that she wanted to sing for the whole world. The poor girl said she would pray every day so Angelina’s dream would come true. Angelina still says she thinks of that homeless girl every day and has always performed barefoot to remind her of all the children who are less fortunate. At age 9, she became the youngest published author in Norway’s history by writing a book about this encounter in the Middle East. PLEASE PURCHASE Angelina’s book from her merchandise store on her official website, angelinajordanofficial Angelina, at age 6 and 7, did record a few songs in a recording studio at her school, most notably “I Who Have Nothing”, a truly remarkable performance for a 7 year old. At age 7, Angelina’s audition on Norway’s Got Talent, was a cover of Billie Holiday’s “Gloomy Sunday”, a song which was banned by a number of European countries during World War II because authorities worried the song would increase the suicide rate. Truly bizarre that this is the song to launch the career of a child musical prodigy. One of the judges on NGT cried. Angelina had turned 8 years old for her next performance on NGT, covering Billie Holiday’s “I’m a Fool to Want You” singing acapella which was required by NGT unless the singer also played an instrument while singing. This was the Judge’s cut round of the competition and was not performed in front of an audience. In the Semi Final round of NGT, Angelina sang “Bang Bang” which was written by Sonny Bono and was first performed by his wife Cher but is best known sung by Nancy Sinatra. The improvement in each performance is incredible even though there were only a couple months between them. In the Finals, Angelina did a cover of George Gershwin’s, “Summertime” and won the contest, capturing 46% of the votes from the ten finalists. When asked what she would like to do with the prize money she won (500,000 kroner or about $80,000), Angelina replied, “I want to give it to the poor children”. Angelina had become a star in her native Norway and her videos on KZbin went viral. She gave a few concerts during the summer of 2014 while 8 years old. In December 2014, Angelina realized a life-long desire to sing at the Save the Children's Peace Prize Celebration which is part of the Noble Peace Prize celebration. Angelina’s family took her to United States, Brazil, Germany, France, United Kingdom, Russia, South Korea, Singapore among other corners of Earth, to perform for heads of state and to help raise money for charity. All before Angelina turned 14. At age 9, Angelina recorded a music video covering the 1956 Jay Hawkin’s classic, “I Put a Spell On You”. The video begins by showing Angelina writing her “wishes” for how she wants to perform the song. Angelina has always created her own arrangements for her cover songs. At age 10 and just a week before her 11th birthday, Angelina recorded a demo of “I’m Still Holding Out for You”. Her family never pursued having that recording officially released but someone leaked it on a KZbin video. Thankfully, everyone involved with that song is now ok with the leaked version. Many angels (fans) believe this is one of Angelina’s best performances. When Angelina was 11, she performed a number of concerts in Norway with a jazz/rock band. Those concerts included up to 14 songs, each remarkably performed. Angelina seems to be at her best when on stage, never nervous, only 100% confident. Also at age 11, Angelina recorded her “It’s Magic” album which has, at times, been in the top 10 best selling jazz albums. On June 27, 2018, at age 12, Jordan performed Frank Sinatra “Fly Me to the Moon” for Quincy Jones in The O2 Arena in London. She has said that was the high point of her young career which was already in it’s 6th year. During 2018, Angelina lost her paternal grandfather, her friend Avicii and one of her idols, Aretha Franklin. She did a moving tribute for each. In 2019, Angelina accepted an invitation to compete in the 2nd season of America’s Got Talent (AGT), The Champions. She had, since age 3, wanted to perform for Simon Cowell and she earned his praise with her genius arrangement of “Bohemian Rhapsody”. The surviving members of Queen loved it so much they put a link to it on their Twitter. Angelina was eliminated after covering Elton John’s “Goodbye Yellow Brick Road”. Angelina’s family refused to sign any agreement with AGT. Angelina, before age 14, had covered more than 130 songs from 80 different artists, spanning at least 8 genres, all of which are available on KZbin. Angelina has always made changes to each song she covers and often her version is preferred over the original. On KZbin, search on The Complete Works of Angelina Jordan as Rusty Shackleford has put all songs in one file and has a complete playlist in the description of that video. The pandemic hit shortly after her performances on AGT and likely caused a change of plans by her family, most notably her Uncle Michael who is her manager. Her family agreed to a contract with Republic Records in August 2020. Republic Records declared Angelina Jordan their highest priority new artist. Reportedly her family requested Republic to allow her as normal a childhood as possible and therefore have yet to fully promote her. During the pandemic, Angelina was often seen buying meals for the homeless on the streets of Los Angeles. In November 2020, Angelina released “Million Miles” which she wrote after the passing of her beloved maternal grandfather. She dedicated the song to anyone who has ever lost a loved one. Angelina had previously released, 3 other original songs: “What is Life”, “Oslo” and “Shield” In April 2021, her original “7th Heaven” was released. A jazzy, danceable, inspiring song. Angelina has posted numerous short performances on Tik Tok and Instagram. Angelina had concerts in Norway in July 2022. Personally, Angelina as a great human being and her music came into my life when I needed it most. Her music has improved the quality of my life more than I can express. I now introduce her to as many people as I can, with the hope her music will do the same for others. We know once her family believes the time is right and allows Republic Records to fully promote her, she will become the superstar she has always dreamt and believed she would be. I encourage others to use this biography to help educate others about the love, empathy, magic and beauty that is Angelina Jordan Astar and her unique music.

Great reaction. You just witnessed the finest performance ever recorded by a 9-year-old! 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 is not widely promoted yet, however, as her family decided to wait until she graduates school this year, so she could have a normal childhood. It looks like she is starting to be promoted gradually and it is said her new album will release in the next few months or less. Here is a link from ages 6 to 17 of over 100 Angelina chronological KZbin performances with five originals. m.kzbin.info/aero/PL2v8kgVeo4EbYDVnRwObjETfWpXbzbgIO Here is a more comprehensive playlist of approximately 180 videos including tiktok and Instagram. kzbin.info/aero/PL2v8kgVeo4EbQD6l_WAVjOfItquzW7oEc 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. kzbin.info Please remember to include in your description the artist Official Channel as well as the original video, if you have not already done so.

I love this performance so much. As they say AJ don't play. We get the most stunning, amazing performance of a 9 yr old of this Jazz standard ever created. I believe it is going to go down in Jazz & Music history as the best ever for this age and in my opinion the best rendition of this song ever created Screamin Jay included. It will be revisited for Decades and will remain relevant for Generations to come. Anyone who discovers this performance for the first time today or a 100 years from today are going to be as amazed and astounded as everybody has been to this point. Think of the children who will be inspired by this one performance in the decades to come. This is an Iconic performance and will always be Iconic. Angelina has on her own from early on at 6 or 7 yrs old reintroduced what I believe will be a whole new Jazz Era and redefined by this young phenom and prodigy. That is astounding! And she is just 17 years old... That is unfathomable. She has already established her proficiency and incredible work ethic in this endeavor guided by an incredible family and professional support now surrounding her. You just watched a Masterpiece! Destined to go down in Music History as the best performance by a 9 yr old, Period! Past, present & dare I say Future! I'd like to see anyone, young or old who can do a cover of this & with the justice it deserves as Angelina has done on every cover she does. ♥👣👸🏻 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. ♥👣👸🏻

You’re a lucky man. There are many very talented young artists coming up the musical ladder in just the last 4 years. You called out some of the best. Angelina is in a class all by herself. She doesn’t hit the dogs ears level of some singers and doesn’t yodel and try to hit every note ever written on one syllable a doesn’t do dramatic movements or drop to her knees and grab body parts or perform in scanty clothing. She simply finds the true meaning of every song and tells the story better and with complete understanding in such a way that our skin gets goose bumps, chills hit our spines, we hold our breath and our eyes leak as the pure emotion she emits washes over us. I subscribed to watch you realize what so many of us know and love about Angelina. Thank you from Alaska

Thank you for discovering Angelina Jordan who, for me and thousands of others, is the most talented and versatile artist living today. I hope you will do many more reactions to her, as she is well worth every nanosecond you spend on her. I have watched and listened to her in awe since she released her first video on KZbin, and what has been evident to me from the start is that she sings with total conviction, despite the fact that she is far too young to have experienced the events suggested in the lyrics of the song she has chosen to sing. But it is not only that, for strange as it may seem is the even more remarkable fact that she can convey the appropriate emotions within those lyrics to her listener. Angelina was 9 years and 2 months old when she performed this song. It is her tribute to Screamin' Jay Hawkins, who wrote and performed the song in 1956 (50 years before Angelina was born). She based her arrangement on his original performance, although she discarded all the theatrics and allowed her voice and body language to tell the story. The song has been covered by many singers over the years, but to my knowledge, Angelina is the only one who has sung in the same style as the original. There are many things I found particularly worthy of note in this video. Some I recognised immediately and those I missed were brought to my attention by the more observant Angelina fans (her Angels) and I thank them for letting me know what I had missed. Another Angelina "Angel" has pointed out something else which I had missed, and it is added at (l) below, (a) Angelina finishing writing last minute changes she wanted and handing them to the Music Director, who smiled. (b) A brief glimpse of Mery Zamani, Angelina's maternal grandmother, a well known and respected Iranian Artist and poet who was also a child prodigy. She was the person who recognised Angelina's talent at an early age and exposed her to all the old time jazz singers. (c) The candle with an image of Screamin' Jay Hawkins on it. (d) The smile on the face of the Bass player. (e) How she rose on to her toes on the last occasion she sang "...because you're mine" (f) The fact she occasionally refers to her written notes on the music stand. Possibly to remind herself of the last minute changes she wanted. (g) Her unwavering passion throughout the performance. Evidenced by her facial expressions and the way she uses her hands and body to emphasise the direction of the song. (h) The way she takes a breath just before she starts the last phrase (I don't care.....) and that breath lasts the whole of that sustained note. A child of that age should not have the ability to hold a note for that length of time. (i) At the end, when she sings I Doooont Caaaaare, she employs TWO separate and distinct vibratos to the word care, a wide one to start the word and a tighter one to close the word (j) The instant transformation from "performance" mode to that of a pensive child, possibly wondering whether she could have done better. I comment on the "pensive" child because Angelina has an incredible work ethic and seeks to perform every song in a way she considers will bring out all the emotions within the lyrics and melody. (k) Perhaps the most remarkable is that despite her tender years, she sings with such total conviction that her authenticity is never in doubt. It is easy to believe that she has experienced the events described in the lyrics. It is not only her voice that is mesmerising, it is also her facial expressions, and the way she uses her hands and body. Her stage presence is electrifying. (l) The performance absolutely is powerful and raw but to me, I am amazed that this is balanced by the profound beauty of the ending phrase; the last twelve words of the song. AND… they are essentially sung a cappella! Angelina has been referred to as the "Queen of Jazz", "The Barefoot Princess", "The girl with a thousand voices". All of them are true, but I prefer the nickname I gave her after listening to about six of her performances. For me, she is "The Chameleon of Song", for as a chameleon is able to change its colour to match its surroundings, so Angelina is able to change the "colour" of her voice to accurately match the needs of the song to reveal the emotions within the lyrics and melody. Even more remarkable is her innate ability to communicate those same emotions to her listeners.

One of Angelina's early influences was Dinah Washington, which, if you're familiar with her work, helps to explain the small sample you've witnessed of the vocal power Angelina has been able to generate almost since birth. What is unique is the idea that she can switch from a delivery that would have sent Janis Joplin running for cover and in the next instant sound like Norah Jones's quiet sister. Coincidentally, Angelina supported Norah Jones in Seoul when she was 11, opening the concert and being called back for an encore. A year later, she was invited by jazz legend Quincy Jones to open a celebratory 85th birthday concert in London. Q had heard and been impressed by Angelina's pared back rendition of Fly Me To The Moon. the seminal version of which he had arranged for Frank Sinatra. Angelina, a self-confessed admirer of 'Ol' Blue Eyes', rose to the occasion, confidently fronting a large concert orchestra to the surprise of nobody who had followed her progress since her extraordinary TV debut as a 7-year-old purveyor of Blues laments. The finale ensemble performance included Mick Hucknall, Jess Glynne, Lalah Hathaway, Jonah Nilsson, Jack Savoretti, Andreas Varady, Caro Emerald, Corinne Bailey Rae, Paul Weller, Beverley Knight, Jacob Collier, Mark Ronson and . . . not hidden in a corner on the back row but proudly front and centre in her white gown and gravity defying coiffure. . . a barefoot 12-year-old who had earned their respect as their equal for a day. Little did they know!

Angelina Jordan won the 2014 season of Norway's Got Talent at age 8. A year later, at age 9, she recorded this performance, which is her own arrangement based on Screamin' Jay's original. Angelina sings barefoot as a reminder that many children in the world lack necessities like shoes. She's done this ever since age 6, when she gave her shoes to a Middle Eastern orphan who had none. Also at age 9, Angelina published a book she wrote about this experience, becoming the youngest published author in Norwegian history. She speaks several languages and also paints. I think you'd enjoy her arrangement of Bohemian Rhapsody, which she premiered on the 2020 season of America's Got Talent: The Champions. Queen certainly liked it: they tweeted their congratulations.

It's unreal like her, from a very young person, she choice to use her incredible passion and understanding through music in a splendid way, especially for these legendary songs. She is definitely the only 9-year-old girl who understands and has the courage and the ability to sing this song from Screaming' Jay, so imbued with his power, and reorganize it according to her musical sensibility and vision. I sincerely believe that this it's the most beautiful version of this song, over 60 years since it was written and there are much of versions of it, also sung by great singers. 💛🧡❤

Another spell was cast by 9yo Angelina. Welcome to “The World Of Angelina Jordan Astar” (full name). “The Barefoot Princess With The Velvet Voice And A Mona Lisa Smile”. Born Jan 10, 2006 in Oslo Norway. From her audition on Norway’s Got Talent (2014 - age 7 - Gloomy Sunday "Billy Holiday") through the final on America’s Got Talent The Champions (2020 - age 13 - Goodbye Yellow Brick Road "Sir Elton John") and the 130+ videos in between you will not be disappointed. This includes three originals song: “What Is Life”, “Oslo” and “Shield” Since then she has done many new covers and now her new singles "Million Miles" and “7th Heaven”, along with her movie soundtrack "Mercy" from the motion picture “The Hating Game”. As well as her brilliant version of Elvis’s “Suspicious Mind”. My personal favorite is her cover of Lana Del Rey's "Born To Die". Although “Mercy” is really growing on me. Let’s analyze the video: 1st you see how small and cute she is. 2nd you see she is barefoot (story below) 3rd You see her making her “Wish List” of suggested changes to the song. 4th the band leader taking note of the changes. 5th Angelina is holding a candle with “Screemin’ Jay Hawkin’s (original artist 1956) picture on it. 6th the old soul in her voice. She is the youngest published author in Norway. Angelina wrote and her Grandmother illustrated a book about why she sings barefoot. She was on a trip to Iran where her grandmother is from and met a street girl weighing people for money. Angelina sat and talked with the girl. Angelina asked the girl what she wanted to be when she grew up and the girl replied, a doctor but that it could never happen. Angelina told her to never give up hope. The girl complimented Angelina on her shoes and Angelina noticed her scarred bare feet so she gave them to her, and the little girl told Angelina she would pray for her every day. Angelina sings barefoot to this day to remind herself (and the world) that there are still children in need. All book proceeds go to charity.

Ric, I'm a little late but "Welcome to the Wonderful World of Angelina Jordan!" You've just listened to a phenomenon for the ages. She performed this at 9 years old and if you replay the beginning of the song you will see her give the musical director notes she had written down suggesting changes she wanted the band to make. I must tell you she had already won Norway's Got Talent which she entered at 7 years old and finished the talent show at 8 years old. She sang Billie Holiday songs and closed with George Gershwin's 'Summertime'. Ric, you are about to go on a journey with her and after hearing this, can you imagine in your wildest dreams what you are in store for? You will discover her versatility and her soulfulness which touches your heart with a voice that defies logic for as young as she is. Ric, THERE'S MORE. You will find out what a beautiful human being she is and, in particular, why she sings barefoot. To fast forward for a second, just a few days ago she performed at the FIFA Awards Show in Paris singing the theme song for the event and the viewing audience was well into the millions. You are coming aboard just before the 'big bang' which will occur as 2023 unfolds. She has been continuing her education and living the life of a 'somewhat' normal teenager but all of that is ending when she commits herself completely to her career. Ric, check out her performances in Norway's Got Talent first and then skip around or proceed chronologically. I will suggest to you not to miss some of her performances when she was 10 because some of them are absolute classics and it is also when the industry took notice of Angelina being much more than an extraordinary child vocalist. The goosebumps, the tearing up (with an urge to cry full out) and the inability to speak intelligently while listening to her sing or just after the performance are the indications that there is something much, much more going on here. I have subbed and will be on the lookout for more Angelina reactions from you. Take care. Nice to have you aboard with all of us around the world.

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 around 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 in month April 2021 of '7 th Heaven" link: (kzbin.info/www/bejne/mH6bda2Dh8ecf8U ) And her latest awesome cover of "My Funny Valentine" at her current age of just 16. : ( kzbin.info/www/bejne/mIjMfYKkfa-Mrsk ) 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: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jHvNeGlueculY5o (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 link kzbin.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 girl she met girl whom was around her own age of around 6 years old who had no shoes and had scars on her feet; and also to bring awareness to children around the world who are in a similar situations . The little girl was 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 becuase of the encounter with this little orphan girl from then on . Angelina has honored that pledge to bring awareness for orphan and shoeless children around the world by performing always barefoot since that time , now ten years ago ,as she is currently 17 years old as of January 2023 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 a octave range that matches Whitney Huston but she excels in her lower register 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 any genre and excel at it many times better than the original artist. Enjoy this 9th wonder of the musical world in song..

Angelina is a prodigy Norwegian born she started singing at the age of 18 months. She has a heart of gold she has worked diligently and produced millions to help with children's needs and environmental things worldwide all before the age of 16, she gave her shoes to a poor child when she was 5 and was the youngest author in Norway with the story about why she performs without shoes. She has produced over 160 covers of all genres and made them all hers while maintaining recognition and loyalty to the original. Angelina sings in 5 languages, plays the flute, guitar, piano, and violin, writes her own music and paints follow her and you will have a video journey from the age of 7 to now at the age of 16 every performance is a musical masterpiece regardless of age and you will meet her followers (called angels) who number in the thousands and are some of the nicest people on the net. Angelina is a gift from the universe and we are fortunate to experience her becoming a superstar.

New subscriber - thanks to your great reaction to & appreciation of this amazing performance by Angelina (which she also arranged) - at age 9. But - as young as she is here - in order to better understand her musical roots & early influencers, you need to watch all 4 of her Norway Got Talent performances (Gloomy Sunday, I'm A Fool To Want You, Bang Bang & Summertime) - at ages 7-8. Please be sure to select performances with subtitles so you can follow the judges comments. Thank you. And may GOD continue to watch over & bless Angelina Jordan.

Great, you're familiar with Screamin Jay Hawkins, so you get it. And even then, wow! Hawkins would love this. You actually have to watch it multiple times to allow your mind to make sense of what you see and what you hear from this 9 year old. Like so many of her songs, this is impossibly good. And she arranged this serious jazz piece herself from his his original theatrical piece. Great reaction.

Angelina is a talented Norwegian singer, from the young age of 18 months she was captivated by music, especially jazz. there are several autobiographical videos of her childhood development. From Norway Talent 2014, when she basically started her professional career. she is known primarily for her arrangements / musical, lyrical, stylistic / for her performances. She is our "Barefoot Princess with a Thousand Voices" - she does not avoid any genre and has been writing her own lyrics and compositions since the age of 12 - she plays piano, guitar, flute and violin. After NGT 2014, she performed all over the world, concerts from 2015 to 2018, singing also in Japanese. after Am GT 2020, she has already noticeably improved her skills and is now starting to be recognized as a global celebrity. Despite all the popularity, she maintains respect and humility for everything that helped her build her career. That's why he has so many fans all over the world. Georg - Czech Rep

Angelina I think is the most talented 9 year old singer have ever seen. The most talented 9 year old musician I've ever seen is Alma Deutscher the child prodigy composer from England. She started playing piano at age two the violin at three ad composing at four. This is her performing the 3rd movement of a violin concerto that she composed. Age nine. kzbin.info/www/bejne/sJLHaJmhnaytsNU Alma composed a piano sonata at six. When she was eight she received a recording contract for a lot of her music including one of her operas. This is her in a recording studio recording part of that sonata. kzbin.info/www/bejne/hZawlIivpphqZq8 She composed the operetta Don Olanso the pirate at age 5 the operetta sweeper of dreams in German age 7 the opera finding Cinderella first version age 8. In German. Prior to her the youngest person to ever compose an opera was Mozart at eleven.
