Performances by Angelina

Angelina has apparently only sung this song once (on camera, at least), in what appears to be a home setting, accompanied by Ivan Mendez on acoustic guitar. She dedicated the performance to her "grandpa" (specifically, her paternal grandfather, who died on 2018-03-04). His picture is seen throughout the performance on a mobile phone positioned between the Angelina and Ivan. She is sitting in a chair and is not using any external microphone (i.e., the sound is apparently being picked up by the built-in microphone on the video camera being used to record the performance).
