Vocal Coach Reacts to Angelina Jordan 'Million Miles'

[@SimonWilliams0]

Angelina keeps her songs so simple in terms of the basics yet there is so much complexity, depth and nuance under the covers. Still can't get enough.

[@LeNaInLoVe]

ANGELina's an amazing talent! Thank you for taking time to watch and react :* How priviliged are we to be able to watch such a talent grow up and evolve right infront of us? She wrote this for her grandfather(s), and she's said it's dedicated to all of those who's lost loved ones. Pure healing

[@kevingood4644]

She wrote it..it’s about her grandfather who she misses awfully..it’s also from Angelina to everyone who has lost a loved with..she’s a musical genius..please do more )) subd.

[@SnarkierThan-U-R]

Her musical Genius reminds me of Bjork when she was little

[@MartyEliBowerMusic]

What a beautiful and unique voice ❤️ brilliant overview of this performance

[@avila6435]

Million miles is an original from her. She has done lyrics too. We are waiting soon a complete album from her.

[@tevvya]

I am also looking forward to other songwriters writing songs for Angelina. There already was "The Song for A" written for her a while ago but I know as her abilities become better known songwriters will come out to offer their songs for her to light up. I can't wait!

[@rotorhead-fy7nc]

So great to see Angelina sing live again, especially with this healing song in troubled times. The artwork she and grandma did for the original release was awesome, but this magnificent video is epic! I think this will rival her other B&W from years past. I'm so happy for her successes all these years, and I think she has found a great home at Republic for her talent. Her uncle Michael deserves a lot of credit too, and of course her mother Sara for her protection and sharing her with the world. One day I'll get my greatest wish, to see her sing in person. Angie’s fans will treasure this performance forever. And to Angelina I say, thank you so, so much for all the wonderful music you have given all of us over the years, and for your humanity for others less fortunate. It’s not just your voice Angelina, you yourself truly are the “gift from the universe.”

[@madelaca4589]

thanks for the reaction! Angelina has always been unique and now that she's becoming a young lady (she'll be fifteen this week) we can only gasp and be in awe of her amazing voice, timing, emotion, in all her originals and covers. Particularly this one which she wrote herself and dedicated to her late grandpa and all those who have lost loved ones. A voice and a heart of gold!!! This Sunday, January 10th is Angelina's 15th birthday. I encourage all who haven't subscribed to her channel to do so! That would be a great gift for her :) Angelina Jordan Official Channel 💕

[@ragnarkisten]

The time we are living in now, with all the craziness, maybe people will turn to more sane values, and wholesome music like this!

[@johnbattles1002]

I hope and pray that this will, indeed, be the case! I've endured enough of the last 20+ years of junk music (noise?)!

[@soniaross4156]

Angelina makes me feel the emotions , while she's singing her song. Its touches your soul.

[@joshyblade08]

I've never heard of this lady before but wow 😍 amazing voice! She'll be on my playlist!

[@averteddisasterbarely2545]

Pausing is better than skipping! GO ANGELINA JORDAN!!!!!

[@m.o.5137]

Already a legend. She is a humble, classy, talent that comes around once a century

[@brucecumming8803]

I enjoyed your review. Angelina wrote this song herself, lyrics and I think the music too. She said that she wrote it in memory of her grandfather who recently died and also for anyone who has lost someone. This is her first track recorded by Republic Records who she recently signed with. Angelina's 15th birthday is on the 10th January.

[@billywoods9192]

She's so good. Thanks for the reaction.

[@CarlD70]

There really is no other singers that compare to this 14 year old young lady. A music genius with such a humble, caring heart of gold. A wonderful classic singer for the times and for years and years to come.

[@swedmiroswedmiro1352]

She finally sounds like she is a grown up. She used to sound like a child that is imitating grown up singers but now she probably has found a producer that tells her to tone it down. Now she sings to let the song shine instead of using the song to make herself shine.

[@tylerhackner9731]

Beautiful unique voice

[@nanp544]

So awesome to see you react to Angelina!👍🏼🤗🎼

[@Matoakas]

Another thing she's always been good at, is the pronounciation. When i took singing classes myself, the first thing he said was (my teacher was american, in Norway) and he told me to sing on Norwegian, if the english wasn't good enough. He even slammed established and famous Norwegian artists, singing in English. After he told me that, i started to hear it too. Never thought about it before. A lot of us, non-native in English, have an accent, or have words that, for someone native in English, sounds wrong, or... it could be much better, with better English, and he's right. Angelina is, from what i can hear, really good. At least, way better - and its easy to hear - than most Norwegians singing in English. So working on pronounce words correct is gonna help you. And yes...Angelina deserves to be more...public. She is actually quite huge. Singing around the world, but on jazz-scenes, singing Sinatra and Amy Winehouse. On that note; I wish Amy Winehouse was still alive..and could do a duet with Angelina Jordan.. That would be amazing! Angelina does Amy's songs so well!

[@davidfoster9697]

[@103mrg]

David It should be mentioned that the last 2 were written for her.

[@ClaudioMarcucci7756]

Very thank you for reacting so well to the first time to this original Angelina's song. Seeing her sing after one year of the last public performance in the AGTC, in this beautiful B / W video is absolutely wonderful, seeing her now interpret her song with such passion, making subtle changes after a just one month after her first release with the first lyrics version is absolutely fantastic, it makes you listen, in full admiration for its evolution, as a person and as a singer, and it is impossible to break away from it. This is a very sweet and very intense song dedicated with infinite love to the missing grandfather and to all the people who have lost someone, but it is also a song full of hope and with beautiful lyrics. 😊❤️ Angelina is not only what you saw in this original song, she is much more, even very different, but everything she does is at a superlative level, she sang about 130 different interpretations, including covers, songs written for her and her originals. 🤗 ❤️ Please see the her first 4 public performances of Norway's Got Talent in 2014, those performances made during a few months are the her first public appearances, but you can already see what her was capable of and how her skills had improved in that limited period of time. Or, if you prefer to start from the end, there are the 3 incredible rewritten songs for AGTC 2020. The 4 songs of Norway' Got Talent 2014 that she won “Gloomy Sunday” - Age 7 kzbin.info/www/bejne/mmTKhJulbt6Zbpo "I’m a fool to want you" (acapella) - Age 8 kzbin.info/www/bejne/gonOn3-QedSFjLM “Bang Bang” - Age 8 kzbin.info/www/bejne/ppSloHVqbqyrpJo “Summertime” - Age 8 ​kzbin.info/www/bejne/mJ_Td6Z5g7CtfMk The 3 songs with which she participated in America’s Got Talent Champion 2020 "Bohemian Rhapsody" - Age 13 kzbin.info/www/bejne/gqS3eWNoi56DqpY "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road" - Age 13 ​kzbin.info/www/bejne/hIe1iIx7oJ2HaaM “Someone You Loved" - Age 13 kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZpjSkId_opmdqqs

[@puddys7341]

Finally...Thank you for reviewing Angelina song, I have been waiting to hear your thoughts cos I think she’s absolutely amazing! ☺️ Bless her for having a beautiful voice 🤩

[@roberttague9729]

This amazing young lady said, and I paraphrase her here "that without Billie Holiday, there would be no Angelina Jordan". I bring it up because part of her genius is and was at a very young age, her ability to pick up the subtle vocal techniques from GREAT jazz artists from decades ago and incorporate those styles and techniques to make them part of her repertoire. Genius on many levels but genius ears is part of the mix. Great reaction !

[@bartonbagnes4605]

I think she did the artwork for the official lyrics video as well, or at least it was based off her artwork or her grandmother's. Yes she puts so much emotion in her voice she makes you feel how she feels.. David Draiman does the same thing, check out "Hold On To Memories" by Disturbed. From videos of her when she was younger it's clear she grew up listening to old vinyls, probably with her grandfather, and she probably learned to sing by immatating them. Making an old style new again. She is still really young, only about 15 years old. So she should have a long career ahead of her.

[@davesanders5426]

What a soulful delivery of this song.

[@charlesturner3688]

Welcome back to the world of the barefooted princess and jazz queen Angelina Jordan just in time for her 15th on January 10th. Lots of listening to go as of 2020 132 songs have fun. Angelina Jordan Cover How Great Thou Art don’t miss.

[@peterhowells7309]

"Real" singing coming from a "real" singer. AJ has a whole book full of natural techniques that she uses with amazing results. I know of a handful of other young singers who also seem to be graduating towards a different sound for modern music. Thank God it's real singing I can understand and real emotions I can relate to. Great reaction Georgina and glad you're back with a reaction to AJ. :) xxx

[@andyschnell58]

Many thanks for your reaction and analysis of Angelina's latest original song. In my opinion, she has written a masterpiece which will provide comfort to anyone who has lost a loved one. Since everyone can relate to the song, it will live forever. Please stay safe and healthy everyone.

[@aryastark2323]

loved this ❤️❤️❤️

[@soniaross4156]

Love this song by Angelina , it quite a heart felt song, it's for the whole world to heal in this dad time.

[@tedtomoyasu8438]

Thank you, for reacting to Angelina Jordan. Million Miles is her original song, written by her and produced by Stargate (who also work with Sia), As you said Angelina is not little anymore, but she is still only 14 years old (her 15th birthday will be the 10th of January 2021) and she is already a statuesque beauty at 6 feet tall. If you have seen her videos when she was younger you probably know about: Her version of Gloomy Sunday (@ 7 years old) from Norway’s got talent kzbin.info/www/bejne/mmTKhJulbt6Zbpo Her legendary version of I put a spell on you: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pKipnaJ5hb2tedU Her Golden Buzzer rendition of Bohemian Rhapsody from America’s Got Talent: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bZi0nZ2umsaBq68 All are reaction worthy... Thank you!

[@billmecorney]

It has been ages since any actual expert has dared to criticize. Maybe fear, maybe because she's perfect. She is unassailable ....what she does is so fresh, so exciting and so tender. She writes, composes, arranges, plays instruments, and sings like an angel. So so special.....perfection

[@robertcarlson2807]

Hey Everyone! Don’t forget, this Sunday, January 10, 2021 is Angelina’s 15th birthday. Try to get your greetings to her through whatever means you have available to you. Reactors - please give a shout out to Angelina for her big day, Better yet, do a reaction or re-reaction to your favorite Angelina video. C’mon everybody, let’s make this a special birthday for our Barefoot Princess!

[@colinpate3059]

I love to watch vocal coachs and singers react to Angelina and see them recognize the gift.

[@mehdikeyha3755]

It was the first time watching u on angelina and I enjoyed it I just hope u are not a one time reactor to angelina and u do more from her 🙏🙏👍👍💙💙

[@marvinboswell6889]

Really enjoyed your reaction about this performance. 10 thumbs up to you 👍.. have a great day 😀

[@ilovepiano3333]

She's so amazing! Love the video! 🤍

[@keithserafy]

Yes, I have about 100 or more of her songs I would love you to hear. Since you've mostly seen the very young Angelina, I recommend you check out her more recent performances. Million Miles is her 4th original, but the 1st released under her new record label at 14. Her performances on AGT-Champions are also amazing & she was 13 at the time of recording (Oct 2019). Her ability to transform old classic songs into her "originals" is mind blowing. You should hear/see what she did with Queen's iconic rock opera, Bohemian Rhapsody. She transformed it into an acoustic jazz ballad & Queen was blown away by it. Please take a listen. kzbin.info/www/bejne/mp_KqIlmgtGFfac I've subscribed with the hope you will continue to react to Angelina. She is the most amazing vocal artist I've seen in my long life!

[@stevek5332]

I believe that she began writing this song shortly after her maternal grandfather died a couple of years ago, but she didn't bring it to fruition until she teamed up with Stargate Music, an LA-based production team of two Norwegians. She has written that when she sang the finished product in their studio the tears were streaming down her face.

[@nyima04011]

Her paternal grandfather died 3/18. Her maternal grandfather died 11/19. Yes, it would be great if you listened to the 'lyric video studio version'

[@melalioraut4239]

Great reaction. Happy Birthday! Angelina Jordan. The barefoot angel.

[@lesgray6183]

Great reaction - this song is for anyone who has lost someone close. In these dark days of pandemic this song is to let us all know that we are never alone...

[@carolynhess3812]

She wrote this song for her grandfather. Excellent.

[@alekx93]

Wow! She's AMAZING!

[@ingridprofitt6078]

Wonderful, thanks for this reaction.

[@charlesturner3688]

Also Angelina dedicated this cover to her grandfather Always on my mind

[@103mrg]

Charles That was a tribute to her paternal grandfather who passed in 2018.

[@cathymckee1255]

Angelina Jordan does all her arrangements herself !!!

[@wilfriedmatusch9293]

Great reaction, your insights and analysis help me with better appreciation of the artist

[@ronhanson7660]

First time listener and I love how you are able to describe all technical reason for her greatness, she is without a doubt my all time favorite and I have been listening to music for 50 yrs and know one has the all around versatility she has, may I suggest listening to her outdoor version of"Feeling Good" the heading of this version is mind-blowing, Keep up the great reactions.

[@erikavarga2464]

It was the very first time when I really enjoyed the technical part too. I loved your reaction 👍

[@MiguelSF]

Wonderful to watch you react to Angelina for the first time! I don't know what you've heard from her already, but I would suggest her covers of "The Show Must Go On" (Queen), "Born to Die" (Lana del Rey), or "Someone Like You" (Adele). Of course there are so many more to choose from! I'm hoping Rusty will stop by and drop you his chronological list with all the links. Then perhaps you can choose a title you really like and go from there. I'll definitely be looking forward to your next reaction to Angelina!

[@blahblah162005]

I like her voice 👍🏾

[@stevenbuckner286]

Loved your professional reaction, it's so nice to have a vocal coach who really knows their stuff weigh in. Please listen to if you haven't already, (It's a mans world) with the Norwegian military band.

[@xpost9381]

I am not so sure that you got it right in which order Angelina's career developed. "...way before she went on TV....". Well, she started her career on TV - Norway Got Talent (NGT) when she was 7... and won that one. Since then she has appeared on TV all over the world from Singapor, Japan and South-Korea to Germany, UK, USA Brazil and so on in a long row until AGT-C 2020 in USA. Hence she has been on TV all the time and all the way. Anyhow that girl can sing....

[@BartekKowalski-qi4rj]

👍👍👍

[@rogergabriel7261]

A song in honor of her recently passed away Grand-Father---a very sad song from a beautiful-young star--try listening to all songs from this budding star

[@codypendragons]

I think this is my favorite song from her. I was glad to find it wasn't a cover, because that means I like her songs. Another song to check out by her I think might be I'd rather stop breathing I might have to edit that?

[@rio99999]

The first time when i saw her performance on AGT directly i fell in love with angelina. Her voice such an angel fry and sexy. Almost similar to amy winehouse and adele, brilliant😍

[@JonGray-yh5zf]

The song is about the passing of her maternal grandfather. The were very close.

[@olejensen3125]

:-)) Welcome to AJ

[@vocalsbycyrus]

Why did I read Angelina Jolie for a second and thought she released music 💀

[@augustajustice9779]

She wrote the song for her recently deceased grandfather, though she lost them both within 6 months, I believe.

[@alipanroosendaal9503]

You could pick from any of a couple of dozen of her covers and you will be aghast. Personally I enjoy her Sam Smith covers the most.

[@SnarkierThan-U-R]

Of course, she sounds like an old soul, she was raised listening to artists like Nina Simone, Etta James, and yes even Amy Winehouse.

[@joergcruel7625]

thanks very much for your detailed reaction to Angelina. She is one of a kind and I am anticpating her new album. There are 3 songs in particular that I think are outstanding since she changed them to the intrinsic meaning of the song. That are Wicked game, California dreaming and Wake me up, but I havent checked if you already did some of them. There is also a young italian artist named Giulia Falcone, a very exquisit and delicate vocalist singing in Italian, french and english. She did covers of Lara Fabian like Caruso, Je suis malade, Adagio, but also "SOS d'un terrien en detresse "( famous Dimash cover), Against all odds ( Phil Collins), They long to be close to you ( Carpenters), Vole ( Celine Dion), Le blues du businessman ( starmania), creep( radiohead), and more. kzbin.info/aero/PLGr5gGwU548HLO9pRU32piV5OTSu062JL Just by the choices of her covers its obvious that she is tackling many very ambitious songs and the most impressive are for me Caruso (Lucio Dalla) at the age of 12, because she reinterpreted this song in a different way than the original. Same with They long to be close to you, where she didnt emphasise the catchy refrain so much but draws the attention more to the subtle parts of the song modulating it in a jazzy way. Le monde e stone and against all odds are also so authentic and truly heartfelt without the theatrical touch it can take sometimes. Her most viewed covers are SOS, Je suis malade, Caruso and Adagio I guess. Please have a look and consider reviewing her

[@carolynhess3812]

Already did

[@Vision4Expansion]

She has a new original. Please react!

[@einarthormodster95]

Can't afford to donate to give you a recommendation, but I strongly recommend Magnus Karrssons freefall, "Queen of fire" feat Noora. She's close to my heart. It's the vocalist from Battle Beast. Noora is one of the best sopranoes belters. Please people, help me spread this pearl of a song
