The king of rock and roll must be smiling down at Angelina Jordan who performed Elvis’ It’s Now Or Never live in Halden, Norway in 2017 when she was just 11 years old.
Elvis rose to the heights of popularity in the 1950s. Even today, there are tons of Elvis impersonators around. Las Vegas is notorious for having a huge amount of them. Each one is trying to cash in on the image of the king. You’ll find them in every nook and cranny of sin city. You can get married by one or even have a funeral with one.
So many people have tried emulating his sound, but none have ever been able to reach the bar. That is until this talented girl came along.
Angelina Jordan was 11 at the time, according to the video’s description. She hails from Norway. Her talents brought her to this Norwegian stage, but this video has catapulted her exposure around the globe. As she enters the stage, Angelina says that she’s singing an Elvis song. You can hear how excited the audience at the Fredriksten Fortress is already.
Elvis is a tough act to mimic, but she does so beautifully. She begins singing It’s Now or Never.
It’s amazing how she handles this mature song. Most people would expect her to sing something closer to her age bracket. However, Angelina isn’t afraid to push her vocal limits. She sticks to the classic rendition and doesn’t skip a beat.
She sounded so much like Elvis. It’s amazing to hear her belt those hard-to-hit notes over and over. The sounds that come out of this young girl are shocking! How can someone so young be filled with so much talent?
Angelina began her singing career early. She was only 8 when she performed on a worldwide stage during on Norway’s Got Talent.
She may be a famous singer now, but she’s still the same humble girl. She spends most of her time studying at the Oslo Waldorf school. In her spare moments, she practices her music at the Oslo School of Music and Performing Arts, according to Elvis Australia. Surely, the other students look up to her now. After all, she is a talented force to be reckoned with.
Angelina found success early, but that doesn’t mean that she didn’t work for it. Plus, she’s a natural performer, so someone would have noticed eventually. In the future, we hope to see more performances by her. As she matures, so will her voice. We can’t wait to hear that!
