A lot of thumbs up for this comment and also this suggestion comes up a lot we will have to add it to the list. Thank you for your help and contributions
@@TheThamesmen You mentioned Bjørk in your reaction video. From what I’ve been told Bjørk was present at Aurora’s KEXP performance in Reykjavik, Iceland. I agree with Ledoutofshadow. Churchyard at KEXP is a real banger 🤩
I am a 51 year old who grew up my whole life listening to ALL kinds of music.... From Motown, to Blues, to 60's Psychedelic Rock, 70's Pop Rock, Disco, Country, and my Mainstays 70's Hard Rock and 80's Heavy Metal.... And, I totally agree with you, Aurora is ONE OF A KIND.......period.
Well thank you and welcome! Look around and excuse our mess. We do have other Aurora tracks and a whole bunch of other stuff. May I recommend “ The evening in with the Thamesmen” playlist. Popular with a discerning gentleman or lady.
I’ve lost count of the number times I’ve watched this concert from nidarosdomen it should be a bucket list event for everyone who wants to see the essence of what the art of music should be all about,I’ve run out of superlatives trying to describe how special an artist Aurora is,to think that she wrote this song at the age of 9 is unbelievable,I have seen her perform twice live in concerts over the last few years and there’s no doubt in my mind that she is the best performer I’ve ever seen artists like her do not come that often and at my age of 65 I have no hesitation of putting her in my top five of singer songwriter’s her own lyrics are outstanding they always make you think deeply about life and the world we live in they are as her mother once said to her a medicine for everyone.enjoy your journey lads trust me you will never stop and as for your emotions being moved “your tears are going to flow like never before “my suggestion for a song that shows a more upbeat Aurora would be the song that she opens her concerts with and it’s called Churchyard her live performance of this song at the KEXP with her band is goosebump time plus Bjork was in the audience watching ❤️🍎❤️🍎❤️
Well said sir and thank you for the contributions. We will absolutely check out your recommendation and I do hope to get to see her live at some point. Have a great day and thank you again
The 2018 KEXP concert in Iceland is exceptional in an entirely different way than Nidarosdomen, and is also a definite one to experience! An amped up AURORA performing her songs CHURCHYARD and ALL IS SOFT INSIDE!
I agree with everything you said.I am 50 years old and music is my life but she stands alone in everyone I have ever heard and I just can't put my finger on it at all.She is so unique and gifted nobody is like her.The River by her is in my top 3 Aurora songs.
songs like Lucky , Mothership etc are songs that no other artist have and Lucky is in my opinion one of the best songs ever and indeed Aurora stands alone, in everything, in music, choreography, video's personality...
Somebody needs to nominate this woman for a prize in writing or poetry. Have a feeling in years down the road.....she will be recognized for her poetry. Such as Dylan was.
No words. Aurora is on a different plane. I had my same favorite bands for nearly 20 years then Aurora came an in a day she was my favorite artist hands down no comparison.
That entire concert at Nidarosdomen is exceptional! AURORA's performance of multiple songs is just incredible to listen to and watch! I could easily see this as a featured concert on BBC -- it's that good!
Good audio, good video clarity, great production..and thank you so much for not pausing or talking over this haunting beautiful performance by Aurora 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 Portland Oregon USA 🇺🇸
Great reaction! For more up beat, please reack to her songs "All is soft inside " or "Queendom " (both live at KEXP Iceland airwaves) suposedly Bjørk was in the crowd for this concert.
🧚 "She's a spectrum of the light" 🧚 She performed this concert to support those of us who struggle near the Christmas Holiday season. She FEELS our pain and joy. And she loves and accepts you unconditionally 💯
ThamesMates you just keep o doing Aurora, there's an immense and incredible stash of her music out there, since she came to the spotlights in 2015 , never stopped sharing her Love and Magic, not once! and she's releasing her last album tomorrow, another masterpiece indeed.......she's the fuckiing Best of the best so I'm starting my 69th birthday with the CVD19 bug messing me up a lil bit, not to much, I'm a proud musician granpa and I feel fortunate I found Aurora in 2016, (not one sibgle day has passed by without her music on my daily soundtrack........so HappyBirthday to myself, and thaks oh Viking Fairy Queen, for changing my life and making me a better human !!!!
Fantastic and Happy Birthday. Hope the Covid buggers off soon and we can all enjoy amazing artists like this. Thank you for your support and contributions
Gracias Wolf Lady, evrything cool getting better and quite a nice feeling having been able to make it this far and looking like I'm gonna be doing this living thing for some more time.... like Aurora says not easy but cool gracias por el saludo querida Hermana Loba luv n kissis!!
It happened Quite (Live at the Current) is the penultimate example of everything that is Aurora, IMO. She sings live, with only her backup singer and a guitar. She is a mature adult that has written a brilliantly deep song and performs it practically acapella. 10 out of 10, must see.
upbeat? yesss! you have "All is soft inside" and "Churchyard" both live in KEXP. In this show (Nidarosdomen) in particular the most upbeat probably is "under stars" but this show although is perfect it has slower song because 1. is on a cathedral and 2. is a Christmas show. In other live shows you have upbeat songs like "Went to far", "cure for me" or "the seed" .
Hi Gary I am not sure where in the world you are but if you are ever in the states that are mega churches here who are basically full on concerts every Sunday!
@@TheThamesmen If you remember your BAND-MAID "Freedom" reaction suggested by Chuck Velten, you guys made a hilarious Chuck Norris comparison & mentioned the borough of Feltham. I live in Hounslow, greater London, 3 miles from Heathrow. And yes, Feltham is still a grey depressing dump.😆
I love your reactions to Aurora and she is amazing🤩. Her song Queendom is a celebration of a song that you should hear if you are looking for a upbeat song 💃🏻💃🏻
Lovely and sincere reaction gentlemen. Love it. This is my favourite performance ever made. No performance i have listen to make the same emotions for me than this, and i have been here for a rather long time now. and i am a big guy.🥳 Thank you. Next suggest stop is a new one the Heathens live vevo also one of her best performance but in a slightly other costume.
Aurora's Anti-Suicid-Song Written at just 9 years old. If you're about to take your life, remember the people you've met in life that you're leaving behind. Remember that there were also good times. Those times have passed. And just as the good times have passed, so will the bad ones passed. Nothing is eternal. You just have to persevere, take one step at a time and sometimes it's a success to just get through the day. But at some point it will go up, then it will seem to you as if you see the light at the end of the tunnel. The first time in a long time and then you will be lucky that you are alive. The last sentence sounds so devastating because the path has not yet been completed. The person is still on the road to recovery. And not everyone recognizes this, because you don't walk around beaming with joy but you can still feel good. What impresses me most is that this girl has managed to inspire a lot of metal fans and win them over. In addition to the music, this is not least due to her fundamentally honest character. She speaks what she thinks without filters and yet always funny nice and never hurtful. She laughs at her mistakes. She is not only somewhere else in her songs but also sometimes in Interviews or livestreams. The girl is so intelligent and very challenging for many interviewers. Your brain just works differently. She has an attitude to life and values that cannot be shaken by anything. When she talks, she radiates such calm and warmth, which is incredible. She talks and you automatically feel better when you feel bad. "I went to far" live at honda stage. th-cam.com/video/Y2AqeH1GPs4/w-d-xo.html and "Queendom" (official video) th-cam.com/video/wULeXeQkqd0/w-d-xo.html Both are more upbeat but lyrically nevertheless very profound and important.
Your assessment of this stunning artist is spot on gentlemen. This whole concert is an artistic masterpiece (venue, staging, camera work, orchestra, choir, Aurora's band, Aurora's lyrics, voice, peerless performance skills and her ability to put her personal stamp on covers, plus Aurora looks as though she has just stepped out of a fairy tale or a Botticelli painting). The irony is that the cathedral authorities were reluctant to let the performance go ahead but they were convinced to change their minds and we consequently have a treasure for the ages. If you know of anyone who doesn't believe in magic, show then an Aurora video and if that doesn't change their mind, nothing will (plus they have a hole in their soul). PS Next, either of these two from the magical 2019 HAIK concert, filmed in front of family and friends in the forest where Aurora played in her childhood, 1/ "The River" (about letting emotions run free, written in response to Aurora reading about the alarming rate of male suicide) (th-cam.com/video/A9AzSOJAag8/w-d-xo.html) or 2/ "Daydreamer" featuring a smiling, dancing Aurora (th-cam.com/video/XH-Pd8hYSoA/w-d-xo.html). Also, here is another northern gem for you, Eivor Palsdottir from the Faroe Islands, "Trodlabundin" filmed spectacularly at a farm on a Norwegian fjord (th-cam.com/video/wsl-KHGe4Kk/w-d-xo.html). Finally a glimpse of Aurora's quirky, mischievous personality in a short Tik Tok clip, put together with a fan, "How To Attract Guys" (th-cam.com/video/_cEWy7MNchU/w-d-xo.html). Please watch and enjoy ever if you don't have time to fit them into your reactions.
Thankyou. Great clips. The one in the fjord is pretty astounding and wow what a location! That said I might have been upset if a crowd stood in my vegetable patch to listen to some music if that was my garden!
If you liked that setting "Through the eyes of a Child" at the same concert is a must! Good luck holding back a tear! Also, even though she generally is best live, the video versions of "The Seed" and "Cure for Me" are very different and "bangers"!
@@TheThamesmen yes…..The Seed is one of my favorites, both the video and her live performance in Brazil at Lalapalooza. She’s an eco-warrior, among other things and The Seed is a song for the earth
This whole concert is so very perfect and like you said "transforming"...that I can't watch it too often. It is so captivating that you canno tmiss any of it and like you said are exhausted at the end, but happy. She is one of the very few people that I think is completely free and unencumbered. She is free to express her truth and you cannot look away.
Thank you Thamesmen. A glacial banger is quite apt , as there is a wisdom of age, delivered so pure by Aurora. For me she taps into a very primal emotion . Any how , moving on. Through lives ups and downs I know I am lucky to be alive today. Te in flip latus. ( some Latin homework)
One of me favorites performances. Powerful message and incredible voice in great cathedral setting. And these emotions... What not to love? :) BTW: she wrote it at age of 9 (and polished it later). Mind blowing.
Aurora likes the meaning of her songs to be left to the listener but about 'Lucky', she has stated:- "It's about realizing that you've been through dark tunnels in life, but still walking forward, both feet strong. We are all lucky to be alive, it's an important thing to remember." To see another side of Aurora, take a look at 'Running With The Wolves' @ La Cigale, Paris ... th-cam.com/video/hsoGMLWAYJs/w-d-xo.html
Here are some more upbeat suggestions (Björk was in the audience at KEXP in Iceland, though not seen in the videos, KEXP informed about it in an article): "All Is Soft Inside" live at KEXP: youtu . be / IS2iVcGz_Ok "Churchyard" live at KEXP: youtu . be / nJLuG8c11Gk "The Seed" music video: youtu . be / _Mc_OM5oNA8 Anthem against climate change, rare exception where the music video is more powerful, put a sign over the video to be safe, though many others have reacted to it without issues. Too bad about your Teardrop reaction. "The River" live at HAIK concert: youtu . be / A9AzSOJAag8 "Daydreamer" live at HAIK concert: youtu . be / XH-Pd8hYSoA
@@TheThamesmen When you have done some more upbeat Aurora songs and want to do another slower beautiful one, you should really do this "a cappella" version where she does amazing harmonies with her band members, as good as in "Across The Universe" or better: "Through The Eyes Of A Child": youtu . be / CFzExUN1N8I She also sings this song in Nidarosdomen (Nidaros Cathedral) and it is very beautiful, but she sings several other songs in the cathedral, and this a cappella song is a unique version.
Among artists and in the music industry AURORA is synonymous with quality, and she can fill a record with masterpieces time and time again. Many others are glad they manage one hit. Billie Eilish said in an interview that it was AURORA that made her become an artist and were inspired after listen to Aurora. She is a true genius artist who does not make plastic / bikini music, but is true to real creative art.
I truly love your Aurora reactions. I enjoy your energy and comments very much! I suggest Infections of a Different Kind or Runaway for more of her deep and emotional songs, or Queendom or Giving in to the Love if you want something a little more upbeat. But always, always her live versions. Looking forward to more from you both! Thanks for taking the time to do these reactions :)
Her voice in a cathedral seems quite apt! It makes me think of the pure peal of church bells. I feel she's got more going on in her voice than Bjork, but for something with maybe similar intensity, Fiona Apple will wring your emotions too. Really enjoying Aurora, more please!
It really is the perfect setting for what she delivers. Good call on Fiona apple as she does have some amazing tracks. I wonder how popular they would be here? Definitely worth a listen if nothing else. Thanks as ever for support
@@helenespaulding7562 George here. I am definitely not an expert of Fiona Apple. Just know when I hear songs by her I generally like them! @chris Haughton any suggestions?
@@helenespaulding7562 My favourite involves another wonderful artist, Elvis Costello. She sings his song I Want You, an unrequited love song, and it pulls the air out of you. Elvis accompanies on guitar. th-cam.com/video/S-Cop0aIBAQ/w-d-xo.html
@@christhecurator I will listen to it Chris. Thank you. The unrequited love song that knocks the wind out of me is Bonnie Raitt’s cover of I Can’t Make You Love Me…..packs an emotional whallup…..
She made it at 9, and finished it at 14.... 9 !!!! I could not colour between the lines at 9 !! ;-) Aurora has songs, like this, that makes you forget to breath... and makes you think.... She has others that makes you laugh and wanna dance, like Cure for me (that has is own dance tutorial) and Queendom. She has songs that has rock elements, and some borderline to country! When you think you have figured her out, she will surprise you again and again... We are getting 9 new songs in a few days when her album (total 15 on it I think....)... I am like a kid at christmas! The entire concert in Nidarosdomen was a once in a lifetime thing for an artist.... NRK (norwegian broadcaster) teamed up with Trondheim Solistene (strings), Oslo Fagottkor (choir), Nidarosdomen (huge pipe organ) and Aurora's band and made this.... The time an money they put into this.... Let us say: the 1200 lucky people in the crowd did not cover the costs... :-) - The concert was sent as a christmas program in Norway, and that is what covered it... :-) - My point is: NRK is fantastic with sound/video/light, and together with the fantastic people they made this diamond of a concert. There is 2 songs I prefer other performances of: Murder Song and Runaway (both I like better at the Nobel Peace Price concert), the rest are pure magic.... I don't expect you to react to them, but for yourself: don't miss that concert... You have to see/hear it....
This concert is a perfect example of why we need national broadcasters like an NRK or the BBC or similar. At times things need to be done because it’s the right thing to do and not because it makes money. Surely the definition of art and we all need more of that in our lives. Thank you for your suggestions and contributions we really appreciate the support.
@@TheThamesmen word❣ A point that's not often mention, but very important. And ALSO the NRK sound technicians are superb. I've been so lucky to work with them a couple of times. 🥰
I would like to be on that concert😍 The sound is perfekt. Try Haik concert to, or the whole documentary would be nice. Just search for Haik concert or documentary made by NRK.
The entire Nidarosdomen concert is a masterpiece, and I think that Aurora should have got a Grammy for it, or a suitable equivalent. Aurora is unique among artists. If you get the chance once the pandemic is behind us, go see her perform live. I promise you won't be disappointed.
Aurora is a siren and I would gladly sail my ship onto the rocks, just to hear her sing. Queendon, Running with the Wolves, and I Went to Far are all up-beat songs. Runaway, and The Seed are just amazing... It doesn't really matter which song you choose next, throw a dart, Aurora doesn't do bad songs.
Thank you guys! She is amazing and she marks us in a good way! I really believe listening to her has made me a better person! I know, an abolutelu absurd comment, but never the less! Upbeat? The Seed and Daydreamer, both from the Haik Concert, also Giving into the love from her new album that is released tomorrow, no less!
As someone allready suggested KEXP. But it must be from Iceland. She also has been in the studio in Seattle. But it has a much better wibe when she has audience. When I think about it. How many artists have been covered twice by KEXP?
@@TheThamesmen Yeah, she is an unique and amazing artist and person. Can I recommend you to watch the documentary “Once Aurora” You get to see who she is. It was filmed during the making of her second album, and you get to see how much she does herself. I really felt with her in that documentary ❤️ th-cam.com/video/JTYXwKfOvnw/w-d-xo.html
Nice reaction :) ... Are you aware she wrote this at 9 ("refined" at around 14yo iirc) ? ... If you want more upbeat stuff, I'd suggest All is soft inside at KEXP (th-cam.com/video/IS2iVcGz_Ok/w-d-xo.html) and the funny thing is that Bjork was in the audience for this performance :)
To make you even more happy over NRK's productions, they also made a concert with Aurora and her band, in a forest where she played a lot as a child, near her folks home. It's called the HAIK concert and is awesome, in her performing, and the production. The hour long concert (you'll find the songs as separate files too, I recommend 'The Seed') is the finale of a day of fun and surprises for Aurora in a tv show which is good fun, pleasant, informative on Aurora. Check it out on your own. It is a celebration of the best artists now, in Norway. They've done same with some other artist - Dagny, Astrid S, Highasakite plus some more coming this season. You need check out all those 3 + Sigrid, you won't be sorry you did :)
Now that you guys have stumbeled into her world you will have the time of your life. So much to experience! I recommend In the eyes of a child from the same concert and The Seed ( VIDEO) Thank you for a great reaction. You nailed it with: ‘ she’s sings so pure that I feel guilty’ 👏👏👏😘🌺🌞
Her interpretation of her songs, 5,4,3,2,1 Murder and Through the Eyes of a Child, are super good in this same cathedral venue. Similarly emotional. which is Aurora at her best. As well, the best music video I have ever seen is her video The Seed (vivo). That is next-level on all fronts, massage, video graphics, personal performance, song writing, background vocals, and of course Aurora's voice.
It seems there is no shortage of material we need to check out. Just Wish we had more time in the day to do all this! We will do our best and enjoy every second :-) thank you for your support
@@TheThamesmen To make it even "worse" for you, you'll find that She has several live versions of most songs here on YT, acapella, voice and guitar, with her band, with a full philharmonic orchestra, and then it's the studio versions/videos which she mostly directs and choreographs, and produces, herself.
@@TheThamesmen you know…..I don’t know about your time constraints, but one of the reactors I watch rarely if ever does single songs. He wants to get a good feel of an artist or album, so he will do “triple-shots” or, most frequently, a “quad”….suggested mostly by his patrons but also subs. Don’t know if that option is open to you or if it even appeals to you.
It seems Aurora mostly put herself in the shoes of whom the story in her songs is about. I think she wrote this song alone in her room when she heared for the first time about "suicide" Here she reflect over how she would try to think before make this act (offer) to prevent doing it. I think Aurora is a born genuin Empath.
I am insanely jealous of all who were at that concert, The worst songs were just excellent. Top has to be "Through the eyes of a child" at the same event. Also the 3 from the Nobel peace prize concert. Always live is best.
I really loved your reaction to this amazing performance 🙏💖, she wrote it at age 9!!! For a more upbeat song, I will recommend her official music video "Queendom". The video is pure art🙂 You could also continue with this concert if you want to react to the most beautiful song and performance ever (my opinion) "Through the eyes of a child". Remember to bring your tissues then 😉😉
I feel lucky that you've begun to look into her originals. This old, metal-head appreciates her lyrics. Much more of an old soul than her appearance. Churchyard from the KEXP concert is upbeat. th-cam.com/video/nJLuG8c11Gk/w-d-xo.html or All is Soft Inside from the same session, especially the jazzy breakdown and ending. Terrific! th-cam.com/video/IS2iVcGz_Ok/w-d-xo.html Whatever you do from her, I'll be there. Keep up the good work and don't forget my Nightwish! Also, friendly reminder, Aurora's new album comes out Jan 21. The Gods We Can Touch. Amazing! An example, called Heathens th-cam.com/video/utKR7tAm0hg/w-d-xo.html
From the same performance….Eyes of a Child. For more upbeat ….. Runaway, Running With The Wolves, River…These are more upbeat in arrangement but not necessarily “happy” songs. Queendom is a happy song. Exist for Live is upbeat. Official videos on those two I think. Soft so side at KEXP The happiest I’ve ever seen Aurora was singing Conquerer on the Jimmy Fallon Show her dancing was utterly free and joyous. .
@@TheThamesmen the more subs you get, the less “help” you will need from me…as you will have many willing hands. But I will always enjoy being part of your online admirers! 😁🤗
As always, your reactions are sensitive and cogent. The live VEVO performance of "Heathens" from her new album brings a considerably brighter and different feel from "Lucky".

… and Churchyard from Kexp live or even In boxes about a woman picking up men and killing them! You get one guess on where they end up! But I don’t need to tell you this! With those titles they have to be upbeat! Generally, you can pick any song of hers and be blown away! (Yes, I know, I have gone completely bonkers)
Aurora is simply the best female artist at present. Cure for me is upbeat, whist The Seed is very poignant. You should try Dimash who is probably the best vocalist in the world, with a huge vocal range. Stranger, SOS and Ave Maria are great. Keep up the good work. Regards from sunny Cornwall
It's the total package I guess: the venue, the acoustics, the lights, the choir of course, the looks, the voice, the charisma etc. Well thought out and brought perfectly. Don't know, I'm gonna listen to and compare Björk again (long time ago too) and as compensation the complete opposite of Aurora: Tatiana Shmaylyuk! Thank you very much.
A song suggestion a little boy in the grass alive version malogany session understand she wrote the song about the the people who died on the island of the Norwegian coast one of her friends is one of who died understand it was 40 people who died the pain in the motion to this song
What's quite poignant about this song I've heard lots of aurora emotional songs you know she's a fantastic at the end she least one word out of the song
The internet needs to discover you guys, you are just brilliant. Thanks so much for sharing this! 💖 Btw, add me to the list of people who wants Angelina Jordan on this channel. Its an absolute travesty that you havent heard her yet. 'I put a spell on you' (black and white version) or 'Bohemian Rhapsody' (from AGT the champions) are the usual places to start with her.
Thank you for the suggestions and for your kind words. We really appreciate the support. Please feel free to share links to our channel to the Internet. We appreciate any cross promotion anyone can do!

Most beautiful musical i have ever heard....so haunting and angelic..
Listening to her is like going to church.
Aurora is The Fifth Element...she must be protected at all cost.
Ooh you are right. Exactly she is the fifth element!
Churchyard at KEXP. Its a real banger, and live.
Oh yes. That whole concert is pure fun even with some of the darker songs.
A lot of thumbs up for this comment and also this suggestion comes up a lot we will have to add it to the list. Thank you for your help and contributions
@@TheThamesmen You mentioned Bjørk in your reaction video. From what I’ve been told Bjørk was present at Aurora’s KEXP performance in Reykjavik, Iceland. I agree with Ledoutofshadow. Churchyard at KEXP is a real banger 🤩
You guys are great!! Aurora...Stunning!
Thank you so much!! Thanks for being here and supporting the channel. We never take it for granted... More soon!

Yes bjork and Kate Bush and cocteau twins are all wonderful! But only aurora and maybe dead can dance can get you to this emotional situation!
Had to subscribe after this one =)

Will check!! Thanks for being here, we never take it for granted. More soon!!
Aurora is special and another special singer for you to check out is Eivor!
Will do - Many thanks
I agree with everything you said.I am 50 years old and music is my life but she stands alone in everyone I have ever heard and I just can't put my finger on it at all.She is so unique and gifted nobody is like her.The River by her is in my top 3 Aurora songs.
Many thanks and also thanks for being here, we never take it for granted. Be well
Churchyard live on KEPX is a favourite of mine upbeat and at the same time good dark lyrics.
Cool Kevin, will check that out and thanks for being here, we don't take it for granted.
This is one of those, if i could go back in time and watch a concert live moments.
You and I Jeff.
That’s just pure beautiful and if it makes you cry, that’s okay. Songs like this is made for tears.
Thanks for being here, we never take it for granted. Be well and more soon!
Yes, All is soft inside, KEXP. Thank you for your great reaction. See you soon, for more Aurora.
Thank you too!
songs like Lucky , Mothership etc are songs that no other artist have and Lucky is in my opinion one of the best songs ever and indeed Aurora stands alone, in everything, in music, choreography, video's personality...
Great reaction guys.
We loved that track. Just amazing
Many thanks. Have a fab weekend.
Somebody needs to nominate this woman for a prize in writing or poetry.
Have a feeling in years down the road.....she will be recognized for her poetry. Such as Dylan was.
In fact 2 major influences as she was growing up were Bob Dylan and Leonard Cohen, brilliant lyricists both.
No matter how many times, I've seen this, I'm still OBSESSED 😍!
well.... We are NOT that good :) But thanks
You need to view each of her songs here as they are all great.
Thanks for being here, we never take it for granted. Be well and more soon!
You have to do It Happened Quiet live at the current. This is not debatable and I’m not asking nicely. .
Lol! Funny, and totally agree but for me it should be the acoustic version live at The Current.
@@ronaldmcrae4896 that’s what I said lol 😂
HA HA...... Help!
@@TheThamesmen 😂
No words
“But I know it’s time to let go
And I feel the light
For the very first time
Not anybody knows that I
Am lucky to be alive…”
Truth!
She sang with her band in Iceland soft inside fantastic live and and also churchyard
Thanks for being here, we never take it for granted. Be well and more soon!
Perfection is the word. Great reaction
Thank you 🙌
Great reaction as always. I remember when I heard Sinéad O'Connor for the first time, it was the same feeling of fragility.

No words. Aurora is on a different plane. I had my same favorite bands for nearly 20 years then Aurora came an in a day she was my favorite artist hands down no comparison.
Thanks for being here, we never take it for granted. Be well and more soon!
That entire concert at Nidarosdomen is exceptional! AURORA's performance of multiple songs is just incredible to listen to and watch! I could easily see this as a featured concert on BBC -- it's that good!
Cool!!! I am not sure if I have enough emotion to see the whole concert!!
Good audio, good video clarity, great production..and thank you so much for not pausing or talking over this haunting beautiful performance by Aurora 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Great reaction! For more up beat, please reack to her songs "All is soft inside " or "Queendom " (both live at KEXP Iceland airwaves) suposedly Bjørk was in the crowd for this concert.
Many thanks - We do need some upbeat stuff, and thanks for being here, we don't take it for granted.
🧚 "She's a spectrum of the light" 🧚
She performed this concert to support those of us who struggle near the Christmas Holiday season. She FEELS our pain and joy. And she loves and accepts you unconditionally 💯
She is just a glimpse of a photon !
i love the reactions of yours .... a very much needed perspective
We are old friends who just enjoy hanging out and then listen to some great music.
More Aurora please. She has an otherworldly aura and talent.
100% will do, thanks for being here, we never take it for granted. Be well
ThamesMates you just keep o doing Aurora, there's an immense and incredible stash of her music out there, since she came to the spotlights in 2015 , never stopped sharing her Love and Magic, not once! and she's releasing her last album tomorrow, another masterpiece indeed.......she's the fuckiing Best of the best so I'm starting my 69th birthday with the CVD19 bug messing me up a lil bit, not to much, I'm a proud musician granpa and I feel fortunate I found Aurora in 2016, (not one sibgle day has passed by without her music on my daily soundtrack........so HappyBirthday to myself, and thaks oh Viking Fairy Queen, for changing my life and making me a better human !!!!
Fantastic and Happy Birthday. Hope the Covid buggers off soon and we can all enjoy amazing artists like this. Thank you for your support and contributions
Happy Birthday and Do Take Care of Yourself Panchio. I hope you get well soon.
Gracias Wolf Lady, evrything cool getting better and quite a nice feeling having been able to make it this far and looking like I'm gonna be doing this living thing for some more time.... like Aurora says not easy but cool gracias por el saludo querida Hermana Loba luv n kissis!!
Happy birthday my fellow warrior and as Aurora might say “let love conquer your mind “❤️🍎❤️
@@johndennison3140 Txs man you too have a good one
It happened Quite (Live at the Current) is the penultimate example of everything that is Aurora, IMO. She sings live, with only her backup singer and a guitar. She is a mature adult that has written a brilliantly deep song and performs it practically acapella. 10 out of 10, must see.
Thanks for being here, we never take it for granted. Be well and more soon!
@@TheThamesmen Hi guys I'm waiting for your reaction to It happened quiet live at the current 😊
upbeat? yesss! you have "All is soft inside" and "Churchyard" both live in KEXP. In this show (Nidarosdomen) in particular the most upbeat probably is "under stars" but this show although is perfect it has slower song because 1. is on a cathedral and 2. is a Christmas show. In other live shows you have upbeat songs like "Went to far", "cure for me" or "the seed" .
Perfect we appreciate the support and the guidance. More Aurora soon
Nice reaction guys!!! For an upbeat performance with tons of energy I’d suggest All is Soft Inside live at KEXP.
Great suggestion, and thanks for being here, we don't take it for granted.
Love your reaction ♥
Not that i go to church (ever) but i might if they did away with hymns & got Aurora to sing every Sunday. Pious to the core, me.😇😏
Hi Gary I am not sure where in the world you are but if you are ever in the states that are mega churches here who are basically full on concerts every Sunday!
@@TheThamesmen If you remember your BAND-MAID "Freedom" reaction suggested by Chuck Velten, you guys made a hilarious Chuck Norris comparison & mentioned the borough of Feltham. I live in Hounslow, greater London, 3 miles from Heathrow. And yes, Feltham is still a grey depressing dump.😆
@@GaryHolloway-810 Hi Gary yes of course. We are old and have poor memories and thousands of comments. Send our best to Feltham!
I love your reactions to Aurora and she is amazing🤩. Her song Queendom is a celebration of a song that you should hear if you are looking for a upbeat song 💃🏻💃🏻
Many thanks and noted. Take care and thanks for being here, we never take it for granted
@@TheThamesmen Best Cure For Me performance I really like : th-cam.com/video/BpV-eAhUWxk/w-d-xo.html
I totally agree: "Aurora stands alone" The other great song from this December 2017 performance is Through the Eyes of a Child.
Thanks for being here, we never take it for granted. Be well and more soon!
Lovely and sincere reaction gentlemen. Love it. This is my favourite performance ever made. No performance i have listen to make the same emotions for me than this, and i have been here for a rather long time now. and i am a big guy.🥳 Thank you. Next suggest stop is a new one the Heathens live vevo also one of her best performance but in a slightly other costume.
Glad you enjoyed it
Aurora's Anti-Suicid-Song
Written at just 9 years old.
If you're about to take your life, remember the people you've met in life that you're leaving behind. Remember that there were also good times. Those times have passed. And just as the good times have passed, so will the bad ones passed. Nothing is eternal. You just have to persevere, take one step at a time and sometimes it's a success to just get through the day. But at some point it will go up, then it will seem to you as if you see the light at the end of the tunnel. The first time in a long time and then you will be lucky that you are alive.
The last sentence sounds so devastating because the path has not yet been completed. The person is still on the road to recovery. And not everyone recognizes this, because you don't walk around beaming with joy but you can still feel good.
What impresses me most is that this girl has managed to inspire a lot of metal fans and win them over. In addition to the music, this is not least due to her fundamentally honest character. She speaks what she thinks without filters and yet always funny nice and never hurtful. She laughs at her mistakes. She is not only somewhere else in her songs but also sometimes in Interviews or livestreams. The girl is so intelligent and very challenging for many interviewers. Your brain just works differently. She has an attitude to life and values that cannot be shaken by anything.
When she talks, she radiates such calm and warmth, which is incredible. She talks and you automatically feel better when you feel bad.
"I went to far" live at honda stage.
th-cam.com/video/Y2AqeH1GPs4/w-d-xo.html
and
"Queendom" (official video)
th-cam.com/video/wULeXeQkqd0/w-d-xo.html
Both are more upbeat but lyrically nevertheless very profound and important.
WOW!
Your assessment of this stunning artist is spot on gentlemen. This whole concert is an artistic masterpiece (venue, staging, camera work, orchestra, choir, Aurora's band, Aurora's lyrics, voice, peerless performance skills and her ability to put her personal stamp on covers, plus Aurora looks as though she has just stepped out of a fairy tale or a Botticelli painting). The irony is that the cathedral authorities were reluctant to let the performance go ahead but they were convinced to change their minds and we consequently have a treasure for the ages. If you know of anyone who doesn't believe in magic, show then an Aurora video and if that doesn't change their mind, nothing will (plus they have a hole in their soul). PS Next, either of these two from the magical 2019 HAIK concert, filmed in front of family and friends in the forest where Aurora played in her childhood, 1/ "The River" (about letting emotions run free, written in response to Aurora reading about the alarming rate of male suicide) (th-cam.com/video/A9AzSOJAag8/w-d-xo.html) or 2/ "Daydreamer" featuring a smiling, dancing Aurora (th-cam.com/video/XH-Pd8hYSoA/w-d-xo.html). Also, here is another northern gem for you, Eivor Palsdottir from the Faroe Islands, "Trodlabundin" filmed spectacularly at a farm on a Norwegian fjord (th-cam.com/video/wsl-KHGe4Kk/w-d-xo.html). Finally a glimpse of Aurora's quirky, mischievous personality in a short Tik Tok clip, put together with a fan, "How To Attract Guys" (th-cam.com/video/_cEWy7MNchU/w-d-xo.html). Please watch and enjoy ever if you don't have time to fit them into your reactions.
Thankyou. Great clips. The one in the fjord is pretty astounding and wow what a location! That said I might have been upset if a crowd stood in my vegetable patch to listen to some music if that was my garden!
If you liked that setting "Through the eyes of a Child" at the same concert is a must! Good luck holding back a tear! Also, even though she generally is best live, the video versions of "The Seed" and "Cure for Me" are very different and "bangers"!
Thanks Ron!! Be well
@@TheThamesmen yes…..The Seed is one of my favorites, both the video and her live performance in Brazil at Lalapalooza. She’s an eco-warrior, among other things and The Seed is a song for the earth
Thanks for this. We will check. Be safe
Aurora IS the music...
and she has one new album out, that`s absolutely magic! The Gods we can touch. react to it!
"cure for me" is an up song, its an inclusive song she wrote when she heard there were still places that did conversion therapy.
This whole concert is so very perfect and like you said "transforming"...that I can't watch it too often. It is so captivating that you canno tmiss any of it and like you said are exhausted at the end, but happy. She is one of the very few people that I think is completely free and unencumbered. She is free to express her truth and you cannot look away.
Its the whole package eh also thanks for being here, we never take it for granted. Be well
Thank you Thamesmen. A glacial banger is quite apt , as there is a wisdom of age, delivered so pure by Aurora. For me she taps into a very primal emotion . Any how , moving on. Through lives ups and downs I know I am lucky to be alive today. Te in flip latus. ( some Latin homework)
Brilliant. Yes see you on the Flip side! That said Latin was a traumatic period of my life!
I'm going to see her in April 😎
No.... she will see you! Take care and thanks for being here, we never take it for granted
try the whole Nidarosdomen concert man its amazing and hauntingly beautiful and magical... 🤟🤟🔥🔥
I will and thanks for being here, we don't take it for granted.
Great review. You want more upbeat? Try “Under the water” live at Honda stage.
One of me favorites performances. Powerful message and incredible voice in great cathedral setting. And these emotions... What not to love? :)
BTW: she wrote it at age of 9 (and polished it later). Mind blowing.
DAm...Take care and thanks for being here, we never take it for granted
If you want Show style Aurora: Try Forgotten love - at Lindmo!
Thanks Henning and thanks for being here, we don't take it for granted.
Aurora likes the meaning of her songs to be left to the listener but about 'Lucky', she has stated:- "It's about realizing that you've been through dark tunnels in life, but still walking forward, both feet strong. We are all lucky to be alive, it's an important thing to remember."
To see another side of Aurora, take a look at 'Running With The Wolves' @ La Cigale, Paris ... th-cam.com/video/hsoGMLWAYJs/w-d-xo.html
Will do Peter and thanks for being here, we don't take it for granted.
Here are some more upbeat suggestions (Björk was in the audience at KEXP in Iceland, though not seen in the videos, KEXP informed about it in an article):
"All Is Soft Inside" live at KEXP: youtu . be / IS2iVcGz_Ok
"Churchyard" live at KEXP: youtu . be / nJLuG8c11Gk
"The Seed" music video: youtu . be / _Mc_OM5oNA8 Anthem against climate change, rare exception where the music video is more powerful, put a sign over the video to be safe, though many others have reacted to it without issues. Too bad about your Teardrop reaction.
"The River" live at HAIK concert: youtu . be / A9AzSOJAag8
"Daydreamer" live at HAIK concert: youtu . be / XH-Pd8hYSoA
Brilliant. Thank you for the suggestions it is really helpful to us. We look forward to covering more of this
@@TheThamesmen When you have done some more upbeat Aurora songs and want to do another slower beautiful one, you should really do this "a cappella" version where she does amazing harmonies with her band members, as good as in "Across The Universe" or better:
"Through The Eyes Of A Child": youtu . be / CFzExUN1N8I
She also sings this song in Nidarosdomen (Nidaros Cathedral) and it is very beautiful, but she sings several other songs in the cathedral, and this a cappella song is a unique version.
Among artists and in the music industry AURORA is synonymous with quality, and she can fill a record with masterpieces time and time again. Many others are glad they manage one hit. Billie Eilish said in an interview that it was AURORA that made her become an artist and were inspired after listen to Aurora. She is a true genius artist who does not make plastic / bikini music, but is true to real creative art.
Thanks for being here, we never take it for granted. Be well and more soon!
I truly love your Aurora reactions. I enjoy your energy and comments very much! I suggest Infections of a Different Kind or Runaway for more of her deep and emotional songs, or Queendom or Giving in to the Love if you want something a little more upbeat. But always, always her live versions. Looking forward to more from you both! Thanks for taking the time to do these reactions :)
Our pleasure and thank you for your support and suggestions. We love doing this and just having a chance to hang out and listen to music
Her voice in a cathedral seems quite apt! It makes me think of the pure peal of church bells. I feel she's got more going on in her voice than Bjork, but for something with maybe similar intensity, Fiona Apple will wring your emotions too. Really enjoying Aurora, more please!
It really is the perfect setting for what she delivers. Good call on Fiona apple as she does have some amazing tracks. I wonder how popular they would be here? Definitely worth a listen if nothing else. Thanks as ever for support
@@TheThamesmen I’ve never really listened to Fiona. Should I ? Track suggestion?
@@helenespaulding7562 George here. I am definitely not an expert of Fiona Apple. Just know when I hear songs by her I generally like them! @chris Haughton any suggestions?
@@helenespaulding7562 My favourite involves another wonderful artist, Elvis Costello. She sings his song I Want You, an unrequited love song, and it pulls the air out of you. Elvis accompanies on guitar. th-cam.com/video/S-Cop0aIBAQ/w-d-xo.html
@@christhecurator I will listen to it Chris. Thank you. The unrequited love song that knocks the wind out of me is Bonnie Raitt’s cover of I Can’t Make You Love Me…..packs an emotional whallup…..
She made it at 9, and finished it at 14.... 9 !!!! I could not colour between the lines at 9 !! ;-)
Aurora has songs, like this, that makes you forget to breath... and makes you think.... She has others that makes you laugh and wanna dance, like Cure for me (that has is own dance tutorial) and Queendom. She has songs that has rock elements, and some borderline to country! When you think you have figured her out, she will surprise you again and again... We are getting 9 new songs in a few days when her album (total 15 on it I think....)... I am like a kid at christmas!
The entire concert in Nidarosdomen was a once in a lifetime thing for an artist.... NRK (norwegian broadcaster) teamed up with Trondheim Solistene (strings), Oslo Fagottkor (choir), Nidarosdomen (huge pipe organ) and Aurora's band and made this.... The time an money they put into this.... Let us say: the 1200 lucky people in the crowd did not cover the costs... :-) - The concert was sent as a christmas program in Norway, and that is what covered it... :-) - My point is: NRK is fantastic with sound/video/light, and together with the fantastic people they made this diamond of a concert.
There is 2 songs I prefer other performances of: Murder Song and Runaway (both I like better at the Nobel Peace Price concert), the rest are pure magic....
I don't expect you to react to them, but for yourself: don't miss that concert... You have to see/hear it....
This concert is a perfect example of why we need national broadcasters like an NRK or the BBC or similar. At times things need to be done because it’s the right thing to do and not because it makes money. Surely the definition of art and we all need more of that in our lives. Thank you for your suggestions and contributions we really appreciate the support.
@@TheThamesmen 100% agree!
@@TheThamesmen Very very good point, and for just that reason NRK and BBC have always been my 2 favorite channels.
@@TheThamesmen The current fate of the BBC is in the hands of the current government. They have done much damage and intend it to go.
@@TheThamesmen word❣
A point that's not often mention, but very important.
And ALSO the NRK sound technicians are superb.
I've been so lucky to work with them a couple of times. 🥰
This entire concert is amazing. Check out Through the eyes of a child, from it if you haven't already.
Thanks for being here, we never take it for granted. Be well and more soon!
The most astonishing thing is that she wrote this song when she was just 9 years old.
I did not know this until I started reading the comments and I am now even more impressed. Thanks for support and contributions
I would like to be on that concert😍 The sound is perfekt. Try Haik concert to, or the whole documentary would be nice. Just search for Haik concert or documentary made by NRK.
Next time! Thanks for being here, we never take it for granted. Be well and more soon!
The entire Nidarosdomen concert is a masterpiece, and I think that Aurora should have got a Grammy for it, or a suitable equivalent. Aurora is unique among artists. If you get the chance once the pandemic is behind us, go see her perform live. I promise you won't be disappointed.
Can the pandemic please be behind us as we are getting very bored of the current state! Happy to go and see any artists right now :-)
We will do. I’d love to see her live. Take care. Cheers Alex
Aurora looks like she sounds.
Nice one again gents,
God, I feel like a kid again every time I see and hear the Thames TV Theme and clip!
Best wishes,
Rhodri.
Thanks for being here, we never take it for granted. Be well and more soon!
Aurora is a siren and I would gladly sail my ship onto the rocks, just to hear her sing. Queendon, Running with the Wolves, and I Went to Far are all up-beat songs. Runaway, and The Seed are just amazing... It doesn't really matter which song you choose next, throw a dart, Aurora doesn't do bad songs.
Poetic!! Take care Jeff and thanks for being here, we don't take it for granted.
Wow. You’d crash you boat? Dude… sirens killed.
@@TheThamesmen I stand by my statement ;)
Thank you guys! She is amazing and she marks us in a good way! I really believe listening to her has made me a better person! I know, an abolutelu absurd comment, but never the less! Upbeat? The Seed and Daydreamer, both from the Haik Concert, also Giving into the love from her new album that is released tomorrow, no less!
Thanks for being here, we never take it for granted. Be well and more soon!
As someone allready suggested KEXP. But it must be from Iceland. She also has been in the studio in Seattle.
But it has a much better wibe when she has audience. When I think about it. How many artists have been covered twice by KEXP?
No idea... that's a pop quizz question....
All her songs from that concert are incredible... pls do them all!!
Thanks for being here, we never take it for granted. Be well and more soon!
Have you listened to her whole concert at Nidordomen? If not, you must. (and all her 4 albums - all the songs her own stuff. )
We will absolutely do more from Aurora. Thanks for the recommendations
Great reaction 🥰
It’s actually heartbreaking that she wrote this at the age of 9 ❤️
I’ve only found that out since reading these comments and that is truly amazing
@@TheThamesmen
Yeah, she is an unique and amazing artist and person.
Can I recommend you to watch the documentary “Once Aurora”
You get to see who she is. It was filmed during the making of her second album, and you get to see how much she does herself.
I really felt with her in that documentary ❤️
th-cam.com/video/JTYXwKfOvnw/w-d-xo.html
@@lillm6874 thanks for the link
Nice reaction :) ... Are you aware she wrote this at 9 ("refined" at around 14yo iirc) ? ... If you want more upbeat stuff, I'd suggest All is soft inside at KEXP (th-cam.com/video/IS2iVcGz_Ok/w-d-xo.html) and the funny thing is that Bjork was in the audience for this performance :)
What's also amazing is that no-one(including her family) knew she wrote music until she was about 14.
If you are interested in a completely different side of her; try In boxes, In bottles. Churcyard, and Under the water.
Thanks Fabrice for this, we will check this out.
To make you even more happy over NRK's productions, they also made a concert with Aurora and her band, in a forest where she played a lot as a child, near her folks home. It's called the HAIK concert and is awesome, in her performing, and the production. The hour long concert (you'll find the songs as separate files too, I recommend 'The Seed') is the finale of a day of fun and surprises for Aurora in a tv show which is good fun, pleasant, informative on Aurora. Check it out on your own. It is a celebration of the best artists now, in Norway. They've done same with some other artist - Dagny, Astrid S, Highasakite plus some more coming this season. You need check out all those 3 + Sigrid, you won't be sorry you did :)
Thanks Nils. Thanks for being here, we never take it for granted. Be well and more soon!
Qeendom the music video version
We will check it out thank you
Thanks!!
Now that you guys have stumbeled into her world you will have the time of your life. So much to experience!
I recommend In the eyes of a child from the same concert and The Seed ( VIDEO)
Thank you for a great reaction. You nailed it with: ‘ she’s sings so pure that I feel guilty’ 👏👏👏😘🌺🌞
We will! Thanks for being here, we never take it for granted. Be well and more soon!
Her interpretation of her songs, 5,4,3,2,1 Murder and Through the Eyes of a Child, are super good in this same cathedral venue. Similarly emotional. which is Aurora at her best. As well, the best music video I have ever seen is her video The Seed (vivo). That is next-level on all fronts, massage, video graphics, personal performance, song writing, background vocals, and of course Aurora's voice.
It seems there is no shortage of material we need to check out. Just Wish we had more time in the day to do all this! We will do our best and enjoy every second :-) thank you for your support
@@TheThamesmen I also suggest that video. Very artistic and the message is so important
@@TheThamesmen To make it even "worse" for you, you'll find that She has several live versions of most songs here on YT, acapella, voice and guitar, with her band, with a full philharmonic orchestra, and then it's the studio versions/videos which she mostly directs and choreographs, and produces, herself.
Many thanks. We need to view more. Be well.
@@TheThamesmen you know…..I don’t know about your time constraints, but one of the reactors I watch rarely if ever does single songs. He wants to get a good feel of an artist or album, so he will do “triple-shots” or, most frequently, a “quad”….suggested mostly by his patrons but also subs. Don’t know if that option is open to you or if it even appeals to you.
It seems Aurora mostly put herself in the shoes of whom the story in her songs is about. I think she wrote this song alone in her room when she heared for the first time about "suicide"
Here she reflect over how she would try to think before make this act (offer) to prevent doing it. I think Aurora is a born genuin Empath.
She does have an amazing unique way of capturing the emotion. Or maybe pulling the emotion from us?
I am insanely jealous of all who were at that concert, The worst songs were just excellent. Top has to be "Through the eyes of a child" at the same event. Also the 3 from the Nobel peace prize concert. Always live is best.
That was a special event and those there hopefully realized!
I really loved your reaction to this amazing performance 🙏💖, she wrote it at age 9!!! For a more upbeat song, I will recommend her official music video "Queendom". The video is pure art🙂 You could also continue with this concert if you want to react to the most beautiful song and performance ever (my opinion) "Through the eyes of a child". Remember to bring your tissues then 😉😉
Thank you for the recommendation we really appreciate it. Hopefully we can do some of those soon.
Great review!!! You want more upbeat? Try “Under the water” live at Honda stage.
Thanks! Will do, and thanks for being here, we don't take it for granted.
I feel lucky that you've begun to look into her originals. This old, metal-head appreciates her lyrics. Much more of an old soul than her appearance. Churchyard from the KEXP concert is upbeat.
th-cam.com/video/nJLuG8c11Gk/w-d-xo.html
or All is Soft Inside from the same session, especially the jazzy breakdown and ending. Terrific!
th-cam.com/video/IS2iVcGz_Ok/w-d-xo.html
Whatever you do from her, I'll be there. Keep up the good work and don't forget my Nightwish!
Also, friendly reminder, Aurora's new album comes out Jan 21. The Gods We Can Touch. Amazing!
An example, called Heathens

Thanks for being here, we never take it for granted. Be well and more soon!
Try out Auroras "Exists for Love" One of her most delicate songs, and even we old farts will go into "love" mode!
Her new stuff which her new record releases tomorrow, has a bit of upbeat tunes. She wanted this one to be more fun.
Thanks for being here, we never take it for granted. Be well and more soon!
From the same performance….Eyes of a Child. For more upbeat ….. Runaway, Running With The Wolves, River…These are more upbeat in arrangement but not necessarily “happy” songs. Queendom is a happy song. Exist for Live is upbeat. Official videos on those two I think. Soft so side at KEXP The happiest I’ve ever seen Aurora was singing Conquerer on the Jimmy Fallon Show her dancing was utterly free and joyous. .
And don't forget "Soft Universe", a highly underrated song
We have so much work to do! Thank you again for keeping us on the right track. We need all the help we can get :-)
@@TheThamesmen the more subs you get, the less “help” you will need from me…as you will have many willing hands. But I will always enjoy being part of your online admirers! 😁🤗
As always, your reactions are sensitive and cogent. The live VEVO performance of "Heathens" from her new album brings a considerably brighter and different feel from "Lucky".

… and Churchyard from Kexp live or even In boxes about a woman picking up men and killing them! You get one guess on where they end up! But I don’t need to tell you this! With those titles they have to be upbeat! Generally, you can pick any song of hers and be blown away! (Yes, I know, I have gone completely bonkers)
OK!!!
There are alot of much more upbeat songs in Aurora's catalogue - so far you've mostly heard the slower/sad ones!
If that tested your tear duct control, try "Through The Eyes Of A Child" from the same concert
Thanks for being here, we never take it for granted. Be well and more soon!
Do Through the Eyes of a Child or It Happened Quiet at Nidarosdomen next. The whole concert is fantastic
We would really like to hear more from this performance as it was truly amazing. Thanks for guidance we really appreciate it
Thanks so much for this, and we will check it out and thanks for being here, we don't take it for granted.
"Lara Fabian - je suis malade" is amazing
Thanks - we will check. Thanks for being here, we never take it for granted. More soon!!
Aurora is simply the best female artist at present. Cure for me is upbeat, whist The Seed is very poignant. You should try Dimash who is probably the best vocalist in the world, with a huge vocal range. Stranger, SOS and Ave Maria are great. Keep up the good work. Regards from sunny Cornwall
Sunny Cornwall..... I love Cornwall. Many a good time at the Eden gigs. Take care and thanks for being here, we never take it for granted
It's the total package I guess: the venue, the acoustics, the lights, the choir of course, the looks, the voice, the charisma etc. Well thought out and brought perfectly. Don't know, I'm gonna listen to and compare Björk again (long time ago too) and as compensation the complete opposite of Aurora: Tatiana Shmaylyuk! Thank you very much.
Take care and thanks for being here, we don't take it for granted.
Thanks and thanks again:)
A song suggestion a little boy in the grass alive version malogany session understand she wrote the song about the the people who died on the island of the Norwegian coast one of her friends is one of who died understand it was 40 people who died the pain in the motion to this song
That was a truly terrible event and I can imagine how badly it has affected lots of people
What's quite poignant about this song I've heard lots of aurora emotional songs you know she's a fantastic at the end she least one word out of the song
Is Aurora her own genre? I don't know that she fits into anything that existed before she came along.
The internet needs to discover you guys, you are just brilliant. Thanks so much for sharing this! 💖 Btw, add me to the list of people who wants Angelina Jordan on this channel. Its an absolute travesty that you havent heard her yet. 'I put a spell on you' (black and white version) or 'Bohemian Rhapsody' (from AGT the champions) are the usual places to start with her.
