Yeah, this is always a tough listen, especially knowing the context of the song. Knowing how personal it was for both her and the people she wrote and performed it for, makes the emotions hit even harder. As you said, she's always great at conveying emotions, but this is a whole other level.
Auroras school friend died in a car crash, only 18 years old. Her friends mother asked if she could sing in the funeral, she said yes and made this. After she was asked if she could record it to them, and she did. The parents made a video in memory of their daughter, with the audio, and the mother put it up (open for all) on her facebook page. Then the audio spread. And many sent messages saying how the sang helped them. So they just let it spread..... I have seen many break down to this song, and feeling a bit better after. I have seen tough special forces guys totally break down hearing this song, and hopefully felt a bit better after..... I feel we humans are a bit of a pressure cocker, when the pressure it to high a valve release... If it does not, it will blow up. I feel crying is the human valve.... And this song helpes that valve work....
Aurora wrote this song and sang it in February 2014, when she was 17, a few weeks before she was "discovered" for real at the "by:Larm 2014" festival on Feb 28th and March 1st 2014. The mother posted this in January 2017, when the girl would have turned 21, and near the 3rd commemoration day. There is no other versions available except this audio version from that post, that Aurora probably recorded for the mother. One fan made a small video for it with clips from different small documentaries with Aurora, while others made lyric videos like this one. We don't know for sure, if she sang it live in the church, or if they played this recording.
@@Einyen That is correct. The car crash was 06 february 2014, and she posted it on what would have been her 21 birthday. Every place I have read say that she preformed it in the funural, and recorded it (or gave them a recording) after their request. Aurora said about the song: "It is important that the song can be cryed to. That it reminds about sorrow, but at the same time heal some. This song is [name]'s song. It will always be that. I has her in my mind when I recorded it, and I think a small part of her is in it if you listen extra good".
I did enjoy your reaction Michael, I cried with you, this song always makes me cry and I only ever listen to it in reactions. I agree with you about how grief keeps your lost loved ones alive in a manner, I think that is probably why I have always grabbed hold of my grief and never wanted to let it go.
"why did you have to go a place I could not follow" ( something like that....): I have wondered about this, could see it as a song when someone ended their own life, but I think it is more like "why did this happen, it is so unfear....).
Yea. It is extremally emotional song (It always hits me hard). And imagine it was made and played in funeral of her friend (so personal too)... It is unreleased song made only for this situation but it was posted by her friend parents.
Nice reaction Michael❤️ This song always gives me tears in my eyes, I only listen to it in reaction videos because it’s too hard😢 It’s even worse nowadays because I lost my furbaby Balder (staffie) only three weeks ago, so now it really makes me cry😢😢💔❤️ I actually wasn’t sure if I would watch this now, but it’s a really beautiful song, and as Aurora says, you can cry❤️❤️❤️
Honestly, I'm concerned for anyone who can get through this song without shedding at least one tear. This song destroys me every single time I hear it. It never gets easier. Especially if you have lost loved ones, and many of us have. I admire anyone with the bravery to react to this song and publish it. It's a rough ride.

I’ve heard this so many times and still cry when I hear it. Loss is profound and it never heals over completely.
isn't it the most beautiful sad song?

Me too. I'm a mess every time I listen to this song. More than a tear... the ugly-crying, completely stuffed up nose sobbing type crying.
