It has been over eight years since the world lost Whitney Houston, but her musical prowess still has an effect worldwide.
When Norwegian Angelina Jordan watched Whitney Houston singing “I Will Always Love You,” on YouTube as a little girl, it sparked a love for music that she could not let go of. To honor the woman that gave her, her own passion for music, she sang Whitney’s Houston’s song “I Have Nothing” as a beautiful tribute.
Angelina Jordan is only fourteen years old but her soulful voice has become known throughout the world. At the age of seven she was a contestant on “Norway’s Got Talent” and shocked the world with her voice. At such a young age she was already being compared to Billie Holiday and other legendary voices.
She has been singing for audiences, virtually and in person, ever since.
Angelina Jordan’s official website states, “Born and raised in Oslo, Norway; this world-renowned singer has earned fantastic reviews for the amazing breadth, depth and maturity of her vocal talent that simply belies her young age. Angelina’s videos have received over 300 million views on YouTube and almost 1 billion views on Facebook.”
There are some amazing singers that have songs that many other artists choose not to cover because of the original singer’s overwhelming talent. These artists include Celine Dion, Cher, Alicia Keys, and of course, Whitney Houston. Angelina Jordan does not fear to cover these songs because her voice is just as talented.
Angelina’s cover of “I Have Nothing” will leave you stunned and covered in goosebumps.
Angelina Jordan is so young, but she sings with such a powerhouse voice that many adults cannot even get close to.
She does not only have such an amazing voice, but it also comes so natural to her. Throughout her tribute performance she repeatedly will give a small smile to the camera. This shows off her innocent youth and ability to sing such a hard song with ease.
Every time that Angelina sings the chorus of “I Have Nothing” it is jaw dropping. For such a small girl to be able to belt out such hard and high notes is extraordinary. She sings,
“But don’t make me close one more door
I don’t wanna hurt anymore
Stay in my arms if you dare
Or must I imagine you there
Don’t walk away from me
I have nothing, nothing, nothing”
Angelina closes out her tribute with another small and innocent smile and a quick wave to her virtual audience. She is not winded in the least, as if she did not have to put any effort into such an incredible performance. Her voice is truly a gift to the world.
The video is well-loved and has over 5.6 million views on YouTube and 8.2 thousand comments of praise.
