Vocal Coach REACTS to Angelina Jordan - A Million Years Ago | in-depth Analysis

[@FlameCold258]

Thank you for your analysis regarding Angelina. You're a humble man, like Angelina. Nice and listen to someone who can highlight others and not just their own expertise. If I had chosen a vocal teacher, I would have chosen you! Note! Angelina was only 12 years old here !!!! I highly recommend these two: Angelina Jordan - Stay (Rihanna) kzbin.info/www/bejne/lXi2h4OseN5mj8k and Angelina Jordan (10 year old) - Every Time We Say Goodbye kzbin.info/www/bejne/gYO2emt-orl7gKM These are some of my favorites, among over 120 on KZbin - she also has 4 originals. She becomes a living legend!

Hear hear

[@ulyseslabajo]

She's giving you all the emotions and feelings of the song while......still occasionally reading the lyrics in her left.😅 How bout that.. One thing bout Angelina... She won't just sing you a song. She will make you feel like you're part of the song while you listen to her.

[@9Ballr]

👩🏻🎤🎵🌎⭐️🇳🇴❤️ Angelina is the most expressive singer I've ever heard. I love her recordings with just a microphone and Ivan Mendez on guitar. He is wonderful with her.

[@grubby124]

I have to admit I prefer him over Egil (her Norwegian guitarist), but that's just me. Egil is every bit as good - I just like Ivan's style and his chemistry with her a bit more. Sorry, all you Egil fans out there. I mean no offense.

[@wajj1842]

Hear, Hear! They are in perfect sync!

[@jacquespicotte8886]

Personally, i accept and i like the fact that you pause almost after one or two verses to react, to teach and to explain. That is the main reason why i visit your channel each time you react to Angelina. I need to learn as much as possible why Angelina is so successful and why our reactions to her are so emotionnally based. If i want to hear her without interruptions, i ll go to her channels. Continue to run your business the way you feel more at ease to manage it. It is your channel after all and it is the reason why i am a subscriber of yours. When i click on a new video, i imagine that i m coming to your classroom way more to learn about Angelina than to listen to her, which i did ten thousand times elsewhere. And i takes notes, which is not my normal way of listening to an in-depth analysis that can be found on other channels. The difference between your channel and all the other vocal coaches channels is clear: you teach precisely about Angelina, they make general exposés that could be easily applied to any singers in general. At 10:45, you explain exactly why you make frequent pauses, and i agree totally with you. It becomes easier for me to follow you and to learn on a point by point learning experience. Yes, God, blesses her, blesses her! In Jesus name! Amen! And since her gift at birth came from Him, we can rest assured that He will continue to keep her under His majestic wings! At 11:41, then, at her climax, at 11:53, after the words: so much soul, so much passion, then, at 12:56, and at 13:50, that s it, the teacher comes to my level, and we both are deeply moved by Angelina s perfect soul and passionate practice of the theory of vocal art. And, along with her accomplice Mendez, Angelina, the culprit of all the emotional commotion in the classroom, burst to laughter; she knows what she just did to us! How mischievous she is! Thanks, prof! I just got what i came here to receive from you. I ll be back!

[@grubby124]

Well said, Jacques!

[@jetteart]

Yes she is a breathtaking fantastic soul getter

[@RustyShacklefordChannel]

I think you really seem to get how special Angelina is. A lot of singers might think it is easy to do this, but that is only because they don't understand that she is doing so much more than just hitting the notes. Like you said, even her vibrato has soul. She is able to put more soul into her vocals than any other singer I have ever heard. I think someone could fill a book just with all the stuff she is doing in this one song, and she doing it in a way that doesn't sound over done. ...and on top of all that... this is a 12 year old we are talking about. Interestingly enough, one of the 73 ads that came up during your video was for a Christina Aguilara master class, and immediately I could hear the difference between "doing a lot" in an obvious way, just to show off (CA), and doing a lot because the feeling song just calls for it, and that's just how it flows from the soul (AJ). It makes a big difference in how I feel it... and it's why Angelina is the best vocalist I personally have ever listened to.

[@grubby124]

Hahaha!!! Loved that passive/aggressive second paragraph, Rusty. Brought a grin to my face when I read it. Keep up the good work.

[@joekiplik9108]

Like at every AJ reaction video , here you re Rusty.....yes i couldnt agree more with you...

[@RustyShacklefordChannel]

@@joekiplik9108 I do get around ;) There are so many reactions coming out these days that I really can't keep up, but I do still try my best :)

[@juliochavez7161]

It's OK to cry.

[@keithserafy]

Thank you so much for your detailed analysis of Angelina's vocal genius. This was my favorite performance by Angelina for 2 1/2 years until it was displaced by her AGT-C performances. I actually feel bad for Adele because this is so much better than the original. There is a match-up video for this song between Adele & Angelina & it is no contest. Thank you Adele for writing a beautiful emotional song for Angelina to sing. I can't stand frequent pauses by most reactors that do it only to avoid copyright strikes & have nothing of significance to say. But your frequent pauses are for a good reason with lots of good information on all the things she is doing. So don't change the way you do reactions. Your's are some of the best out there. Another emotion song I love is her cover of The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face she sang at 11 with acoustic guitarist Egil Clausen. Bring tissues, it's a killer!!!

[@williamoliveira4740]

Nice reaction, this song is one of my preferred ones from her.

[@tikiband]

Another great reaction to Angelina. I'm so glad you found her! Watching you appreciate the level of talent that she has is almost as much fun as just listening to her sing. It's nice to get a professional opinion. Her fans love her so much. But every time I listen to a song it's like the first time. I can't get enough. Her voice fills up your soul like nothing else ever has. Who else has the natural born talent to do that? Amazing every time!

[@Crondar777]

Fahimmuchi, have you noticed that in a lot of her videos that her eyes roll up into her head and all you can see is the whites of the eye? I assume it is her submerging into the song. It's like her whole body feels the song.

[@Suamt]

THX for this fantastic analyses. I loved it. I have watched this many many times. And keep finding almost microscopic nuances, i missed in previous viewings. And then once in while i go: ohhh yes thats right she´s freaking twelve years old in this recording. Absolutely mind boggling.

[@Zionsol777]

the complexities in her singing are amazing. easiest singer on my ears ever for sure. saw another commernt recommending "Stay", which is with this guitarist as well. It is one of my favorites for sure. Great analysis.

[@lilsun724]

Stay!!!

[@sivosav]

i woke up to this reaction.. i got happy to see it, so thank you so much..listening to Angelina is just fantastic, it touches you always.. she is born with this, without a doubt.. Godgiven talent.. you should react to: " feeling good" it s a live performance on the border beetween Norway and Sweden, this consert is every summer.. love from Norway 🇳🇴

[@tigreblanco0662]

Angelina is like a time machine, she takes you with her voice, to the time of our grandparents

[@ingridprofitt6078]

She is so soulful, that's what I love about her, you are a true teacher! 😁

[@lmeredeemed5043]

Thank you for a great reaction to my favorite young artist. Angelina Jordon is very inspiring.

[@keldrasmussen6565]

Furthermore she obviously have to check the lyrics to her left. amazing and beautifull. fine react.

[@markprovan3428]

That was one of the best reactions I have ever heard loved it

[@stephenevans6055]

I can see you are an Angelina fan, great reaction, especially when you said I miss my mother, keep up the good work

[@stephenevans6055]

You are so humble, again I loved your reaction, she melts your heart, I listen to reactions from lots of people, but I got to say , you are talking so truthfully, I couldn't agree more, and unlike most vocal coaches I have listened to , you are not singing , imitating her, you are a great guy

[@zeuso.1947]

Speaking of Angelina's vibrato. I'm no voice coach, but from what I've heard, she has TOTAL control of her vibrato. With EVERY syllable, tone, note, word, phrase, Angelina will end it with the precise amount of frequency, breathiness, pressure, volume, or emotion SHE chooses. Seriously, Angelina is a once in a millenia phenomenon. Everyone on Earth can feel very fortunate to hear the life-changing sounds of Angelina.

[@alberttenfoot]

Thank you for another incisive reaction to Angelina. Please don't take this as a criticism but just a suggestion. I feel that you pause the video too often. I realise that you do have to interrupt the performance to avoid copyright infringements but to me the number you insert are too excessive. With your experience and knowledge, I am certain that you will remember all the kpoints you wish to tell us in the extended performance. Many of the reactors who are also engaged in the music industry professionally, such as yourself, have remarked on the microphone used by Angelina. They have stated that such is it sensitivity that it will pick every nuance of Angelina's performance and also any mistakes made by her. So far they have not found any mistakes! Would you agree with their opinion? I am no professional singer, or anything else for that matter, but to me it seems obvious that Angelina has an innate understanding of music and what is necessary for her to recognise the emotions of a song and communicate those emotions to her listener. But, she doesn't just accept that she is unique as a singer. Once she has decided upon a song to sing - and she alone makes that decision - she arranges both melody and lyrics and rehearses until such time as she is satisfied that the performance she ultimately gives will reflect what she sees as the true emotions of the song. In an imaginative moment I likened Angelina to a chameleon, inasmuch as a chameleon adapts its colour to blend with the surroundings, so Angelina adapts the "colour" of her voice to convey the emotions of the song and communicate those emotions to the listener. And she has done this for every song since she first stepped on to the stage for her first audition in Norway's Got Talent.

[@bestcork2065]

I love the teacher learning from the student aspect of your review

[@berniescott6481]

Thank you for your fascinating reaction,I love that you do it clearly but don't suppress your emotional response .I'm sure that you are an excellent voice coach.

[@johncreighton908]

Exactly, when she beautifully sings I miss my mother, I really, really do miss my mother , who no longer will us.

[@groggids]

And if i may add, all that awesome performance and its not even in a formal recording in a sophisticated studio but a simple acoustic performance, probably at home or home studio. you can't beat a God-given Gift!

[@ckh57]

"Angelina was in the house", if one knows her this says it all..loved this reaction .

[@marctoone4078]

She is a master, a walking clinic. I am lucky to walk the 🌎 at the same time. ✌

[@ingridprofitt6078]

Hi, love how you explain in detail so even nativist like me to understand...thank you!

[@tessahermelin2117]

Great reaction! Keep it up!

[@fahimmuchivocalstudio]

Thank you very much

[@fernandof.2225]

Can't tell if you like it... just kidding... you are very expressive. Angelina doesn't sing lyrics... she sings feelings. That is what causes people to listen to her songs multiple times without getting tired. Great video reaction.

[@mjkeating]

This is the sort of reaction that leads one to better appreciate the art, and that's good for everyone. Many thanks.

[@timelston4260]

"A Million Years Ago" is so fitting for Angelina. She is the ageless voice of the universe.

[@ClaudioMarcucci7756]

thanks Fahimmuchi, i love your reactions and i agree with the other commentators, stop as many times as you want, each time is a nice way to get to know Angelina and her incredible powers. I'll wait with pleasure

[@lindastrauss8206]

This is one I've my very favorite of her performances (I love it when it's just her and Ivan's guitar). I've listened to it over and over in the last couple of months. But you analysis helps me understand how she made it so great. Thank you.

[@robtchase58]

Love your reaction video. I am definitely a fan of yours. Someone actually did a comparison of Angelina and Adele side, singing this song. Adele is good but Angelina is better. You really need to listen to that cover

[@jefffisher1045]

She has the ability to read the lyrics and still stay amazingly connected to the soul of the song, just like the most brilliant actor Marlon Brando, he even said it in an interview, he can't remember lines, so there are cue cards all over the place, so when you see him in a scene looking around, he is actually glancing at the cue cards, you can look up other actors commenting on this in other youtube interviews, it's brilliant.

[@Magician1939]

She has the ability to lose herself in a song It doesn't matter when singing high notes or low or whether her vibrato is great and she can do fantastic runs. Her connection to the songs makes you tingle and many times make you cry.

[@YozhikvTumane]

Is that audio effect some clever way to avoid detection by youtube's content-ID algorithms?

[@fahimmuchivocalstudio]

You got me hahaha

[@DonaldLancon]

@@fahimmuchivocalstudio But it's not necessary when reacting to stuff from her CoverChannel. I don't think they'd ever be flagged. (Some of the videos from her Official channel might be a different matter, since most of that stuff has been commercially released or broadcast on TV.)

[@sharonrdbl2343]

Thankyou so much for seeing Angelina in her special way of singing and Don, t forget English is her 3rd language! Usually foreigners Don, t sing the songs with full expression of the words but from 7yrs old her audition one of the judges asked if she knew what the song was about? And she told him exactly so she knew at 7 how to express love songs as she is really a Jaz singer But she can do so many ganres it is amazing. Her latest song track from the hating game is a perfect example as you have 3 x Angelina in that track. It is from Duffy a Welsh singer but as she always does her own arrangement.

[@eldani134]

Ella es la mejor del mundo y me alegra que la estés conociendo.

[@jameshenry8629]

I love your reaction..just like the rest of us ..you are speechless

[@angelightification]

Your amazing - your reactions clearly make My listening more enjoyable

[@angelightification]

Will you Be doing more

[@IvarChoiEspedalen]

Thank you for your great reaction to this cover. I find your reaction videos to be very interesting. And it makes me happy to see how you share your thoughts and feelings when you react to her. This is a cover i prefer over the original. And yes, she touches our souls over and over again 😊

[@lmeredeemed5043]

So lovely

[@angelightification]

Her grandmother played Jazz records & Angelina says music found her!!! There’s a short video clip of her singing at the age of 1 1/2

[@wajj1842]

Another fantastic reaction. You're not the only reactor to refer to this as perfection. I have no problem with, in fact I like, your pauses to teach. Most of us have listened to this performance multiple times. We come here to get your take on it. Notice that she glances to her left some to verify the lyrics, while delivering this incredible emotion. I marvel at how she can do that. I've listened to the entire performance with my eyes closed, and for me, it's even more emotional. TERRIFIC!! One fan (The Mask) recommended her cover of Cole Porter's "Every Time We Say Goodbye". It is one of my favorite Angelina performances. She's 10 years old and knocks it out of the park. I would place her right up there with the very best that have performed this song, including Ella. I hope you will react to it. Thanks again for another great reaction to the fabulous Angelina. Best wishes and be safe. Billy J

[@grubby124]

Ha ha! Don't worry - there's not a one of us that hasn't come down with a slight case of sweaty eyeballs when listening to Angelina sing a song. This is one of my favorites (among so, so many others) and I love how expressive her hands are. It's not just the voice that gets you; she throws every part of herself into every song she does - body and soul. It sets her apart from any other singer I've ever watched. She even made Ivan miss his cue on the bridge repeat, and he never makes rookie mistakes like that! Another great reaction.

[@ShirleyHickman-oy7go]

Beautiful ❤️❤️

[@markhansen7998]

I doubt she rehearsed this much, if at all...she is checking lyrics from time to time and delivers without a hitch.

[@LadyOaksNZ]

A jewel ❤❤❤

[@eythor1313]

As the AJ reaction videos are flooding youtube from all corners of the world, the ones you are sharing With us are among my favourite's. I think everyone who want's to should let their views be heard and make reaction videos, but not all of them are interesting on an educational level for those of us who have been riding the AJ-tube from way back. You manage to both be educational and at the same time appreciative and emotional in your reactions, and that makes for a very good viewing. Keep it up:-)

[@fahimmuchivocalstudio]

Thank you so much, really appreciate what you wrote above🙏🙏🙏😀😀😀

[@patrickrasmussen6180]

If we all kept apologising for getting emotional over Angelina that's most of our day gone.

[@leebrn8588]

I just finished listening to Angelina sing "I'm still holding out for you" If her parents would let her record it. then it would sell a million copies in a week... I love everything she does, but after hearing her sing this song, I know it would put her on the map worldwide. It is incredible. She is a musical genius

[@ooshta]

Nice react. I hope you react to her version of "Goodbye yellow brick road." on AGT.

Thank you for doing this reaction to Angelina Jordan. She sings this better than the the original artist but don’t Get me wrong . I love adele too and Angelina Jordan have done a few adele songs and she does them so amazing.

This is a mature woman's song of regret. How can a 12 year old girl understand this and express it so accurately? She does it better than Adele.

Have you ever thought of an analysis of a singing drummer. The challenges that singing drummers have. Paulina Vilarreal is the drummer for the band The Warning. They are from Mexico and play rock music. She plays with her two sisters. In this video she is 16 years old. The Warning. Song is The End(Stars always seem to fade).

Nice reaction. Please react to the Spanish diva and songwriter DIANA Navarro. You can start with her masterpiece El Perdón (Forgiveness). There is a version of the videoclip with English subtitles. I am sure you will enjoy.

[@Lene-Lene]

You know by now the richness if her low notes, her soufull delivery in the deep. Many have commented that she doesn't have a wide range, and her low register is where she rules. No doubt her low notes are out of this world, but she do have a wide register. It was almost as she proved a point when she covered Withney Houston's epic I have nothing, with some serious belting high notes. Of not mimicking Withney, but doing it totaly in her one style. Hope you will react an analyze her video. m.kzbin.info/www/bejne/m4XGp6mFa6dmf9E Love your reaction btw!

[@itomendoza4315]

Adele who better than the original love your reaction thanks

[@lazios]

I don't know how to say it because my eng it's really bad (I use google) so I'll try to say it in italian (I hope, translating literally, to make understand the meaning of my words). -Questa giovane ragazza ha "qualcosa", non si può spiegare perchè non è una questione di tecnica e non è nemmeno la voce (meravigliosa oltretutto) è qualcosa di diverso che si ha o no, lei lo ha. -This young girl has "something", you can not explain why it's not a technique question and neither the voice (wonderful) it's something different that you have or not, she has it.
