If you don't listen to Angelina for a few weeks, many people say they forget how good she is, but I wouldn't know about that, since I have listened to her every day since I discovered her, over 6 years ago.

[@richardduffy3115]

Same here, at least half a dozen times a day.

[@alanwitty1665]

Me too

[@tronddiesen6095]

I listen to her every day, and I know her since Norske Talenter (Norways got talent) when I saw her on TV. I'm a grown up Norwegian man.

She's that good!

[@omidhope7456]

Angelina Jordan is a once-in-a-lifetime musical talent with her unique, pure, and mesmerizing voice. Thank for reacting to another amazing performance by the Barefoot Angel.

[@carolynhess3812]

The piano player is Toby Gad the writer of this song.

[@josephstimpfl4594]

Nice to see you back reacting to Angelina. She is just something, isn't she.

[@samanthaclough7637]

Gteat reaction 😊

[@larsfrodelarsen5757]

The Queen of Song appearing !!!

[@hans-georgschroter7887]

Toby Gad said she gave the famous Song more depth. Angelina is a very experienced artist with over 10 years in making music 🎵. No wonder she has a well controlled voice and noticed at the end..so good 👍❤ BTW she had her first LA concert last month in Glendale with 21 Songs. All worth for a reaction 💞

[@OleOlson121]

Thank you. Angelina Jordan - The Diamond in the Rough. - The Barefoot Princess of Jazz. Best Jazz Singer on the planet.❤👣

[@carols1406]

Great to see your reaction to this gorgeous version. The piano player is Toby Gad, who wrote the song with BC Jean. Angelina and Toby have been working on music together and they have a spectacular new single out called "Bad Valentine" that I would love to see you react to. I can't understand why it isn't blowing up more than it is.

[@ClaudioMarcucci7756]

This is the last and fantastic live version of the song, with the wonderful echoes of the church that make it even more magical her voice, I would listen endlessly to her wonderful and powerful voice with that incredible low register of her and those wonderful progressions, I admire her fantastic musical sensitivity more and more, it seems impossible, but every song, simple or complex, which she rediscover becomes a new and splendid song. For me she is simply unique and with an incredible melodic perception. I love this composed and passionate performance, it's absolutely healing for the soul but even so crossed by an incredible musical power and structure, I love when in the second part, the soft background accompaniment of the piano and cello gives a wonderful and silky backdrop at her incredible voice. 💛🧡❤

[@HusemR]

The song was written by BC Jean and Toby Gad and sung by BC Jean. Beyoncé later covered it and the song became world famous. Angelina Jordan now upgraded it. 😊

[@monaboutet6863]

Well hello again! So happy to see your reaction to this performance! She's just sublime ❤❤

Angelina is at her storytelling best singing this song. Her concert in the LA area on the 20th of September was awesome. She sang her newly released original song "Bad Valentine" and co-writer Toby Gad, posted a video of that live performance on his channel. kzbin.info/www/bejne/iWGWYX2Ypa-tZ9ksi=xCa5pBoPbmd2kWkE Angelina told us, she has written more than 100 songs and we have been blessed by 16 to date. Here is the list. "What is Life" first sung at age 11. We don't know how old she was when she wrote each song. Age presented is her age when she first sang it. "Oslo" age 11 "Shield" age 12 "Million Miles" age 14 we know she wrote this one in the days after her maternal grandfather passed in 2019 when she was 13 "7th Heaven" age 15 "Love Don't Let Me Go" age 17 "Now I'm the Fool" age 17 "Fire and Rain" age 17 "It's All My Fault" age 17 "Good in Goodbyes" age 17 "Diamond" age 17 "Our Time" age 17 "Princess of Ruins" age 18 ..... debuted at her 2 shows in Las Vegas 2/29/24 "Bad Valentine" age 18 worked with Toby Gad "Thank You" age 18 debuted at her Glendale concert 9/20/24 "What Am I to You" age 18 debuted at her Glendale concert Should include songs for which she was the first to sing "I'm Still Holding Out for You" age 10 .... considered one of her best vocal performances by many "Song for A" age 12 "Above the Water" a EDM song released January 31, 2020 "We're the Best" sung with RedOne at the FIFA Awards February 27, 2023 Angelina wrote new lyrics for two famous songs by Amy Winehouse, "Back to Black" and "Rehab" since it was inappropriate for a preteen to sing the original lyrics. For "Back to Black" Angelina wrote the new lyrics in the 24 hours prior to the recording, then needed just two takes.

[@waldemarwojtan1717]

Although this song was made famous by Beyonce, this song was neither written by nor for Beyonce, so not her cover. This was co-written by Toby Gad and BC Jean for BC Jean and co writer Toby Gad asked Angelina to re-invent the song for him. Tobias "Toby" Gad (born 28 March 1968) is a German music producer and songwriter based in Los Angeles. He is known for co-writing songs including John Legend's biggest hit, "All of Me", the fifth-highest certified single in RIAA history, and for co-writing and producing "Big Girls Don't Cry" by Fergie and "If I Were a Boy" by Beyoncé. Other notable works include "Skyscraper" for Demi Lovato, "Who You Are" for Jessie J, "Untouched" for The Veronicas, "A Year Without Rain" for Selena Gomez & the Scene, "Don't Hold Your Breath" for Nicole Scherzinger, "Love You More" for JLS, and "I Do" for Colbie Caillat. In the third quarter of 2014, Gad was ranked the #3 songwriter in America by Billboard, behind Ryan Tedder and Pharrell Williams.

Jordan is the only artist on the planet who can take the same song and release it in a pop, jazz, country, blues, rock or any genre that you can think of. Elvis is a member of 5 Halls of Fame, Jordan may top that number before she’s done! She’s already released her new song with Toby Gad Bad Valentine in four different genres. Pop, Rock, Classic and Jazz. My favorite is the Classic acoustic version with just her voice and one instrument.

[@eTraxx]

A cover only in the sense that what Beyoncé made was a cover of the song written by BC Jean and Toby Gad, originally performed by Jean in 2008. Beyoncé's cover was that same year. In this video the pianist is Toby Gad .. yes the same co-writer of the song .. the Piano Diaries are a celebration of his hit songs. He invited Angelina to England with him to perform .. this is the seventh version I have heard. I am not sure if it is really a cover when a singer is standing next to the composer as they jam to create a different version of the song. Wikipedia: Tobias "Toby" Gad (born 28 March 1968) is a German music producer and songwriter based in Los Angeles.

Here's the best production of an AJ video that I've ever seen, AJ's original "Bad Valentine" live at the Alex Theatre, courtesy of Toby Gad: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iWGWYX2Ypa-tZ9k. And her control of vocal fry and vibrato -- frybrato that is unique to AJ.

[@wisehiker]

the piano man is Toby Gad He wrote this with another woman for Bouncy Now he wants AJ to sing it on this new Record of all his music with different artists. He has also (if you did not know) co-wrote some songs with AJ for another album. "Bad Valentine"

written by BC Jean and Toby Gad. Beyonce recorded it and catapulted it to "hit" status

I don't know why so may reactors play this acapella? song when the one with the music is so much better. Learn and listen.

[@CarlD70]

Actually Phil, your Ai is wrong, original song was by Toby Gad (piano) and BC Jean. BC Jean sang it originally, Beyonce later did a cover of the song. Thanks for the reaction, like the new channel.

[@eTraxx]

THE ORIGINAL WAS BY TOBY GAD AND B.C. JEAN. When the record company would not promote that version then Beyoncé did her cover. I repeat .. Beyoncé made a COVER. You can find the original B.C. Jean version on KZbin - it almost drove me crazy you giving credit to Beyoncé for creating the song. No .. the guy at the piano did that .. Toby Gad .. did that. Think about it .. Angelina and the song writer worked on THIS version .. call me nuts but seems to me that when a singer is singing with the writer it is not a cover .. but re-arranged .. basically a .. donno .. semi-original?

[@Sweetpea4575]

Angelina’s re-interpretation of BC Jean and Toby original; produced by Toby. Beyonce did the same.

[@eTraxx]

@@Sweetpea4575 the difference is that Beyoncé did not have Toby working as a team like he did with Angelina. Spending days working/jamming together is a bit difference.

[@Sweetpea4575]

@@eTraxx Toby Gad produced with Beyoncé like he did with Angelina. Neither Beyoncé nor Angelina have writing credit but their interpretation of the song is vastly different. Toby said he loves Angelina’s interpretation.

[@jeffjeff-j6t]

Hi Track, Beyonce didn't create this song. The piano player Toby Gad wrote this song , Beyonce' covered it. Toby asked Angelina to reinvent it for his Piano Diaries series. He liked her version of it so much, He signed over the copy rights to Angelina's version. This is now Angelina's song. He didn't sign over copy rights to Beyonce' No Sir?

[@buza1300]

This is the worst version of several options

What's the best version? I'll do it 👀
