If I'm not mistaken, she was 19 at the time of this concert. She wrote the song when she was 11. Aurora is the fifth element, an artist who must be protected at all costs. Check out The Seed, the Haik Concert songs, Warrior, Queendom... really anything of hers is worth your time. The guitarist sings the low notes - he is male.
As a little girl in Norway she spent a lot of time in the forest with the animals day and night and has always been special. She was terrified of performing at first but wanted to share her thoughts and music. She wrote this one and many others when she was just a girl. In her performance of Heathens at Rough Trade East, London, she dedicated the song to “the Mother who takes care of the people who aren’t welcome in heaven.” That’s a comforting thought. One of her most fun songs is Cure For Me. But as usual with a deeper message. It’s a protest against conversion therapy to “cure” bisexual and homosexual people. She’s bisexual and regardless of what anyone thinks of that they should respect her courage. I’m hetero and I do.
@@TimWelchVocalStudio Great thanks. It is the only a cappella song she has done live, that is professionally recorded, and great harmonies with her band members.
Yaaaaaaaaaaasss!! Haha I’m so glad you loved her! What’s so special about her is how completely unafraid to be vulnerable she is. At 19 she was able to be completely emotionally transparent. She’s developed so much as an artist over the years and just become even more so but she has also never stopped growing musically. No 2 albums are alike. No 2 songs are alike. The scope of her music and soundscapes is incredible. Her latest album has huge electronic elements and edm and 80s influences but while keeping her vocals so uniquely hers. She really has spent her whole career writing about what it means to be human. She’s so inspiring. This was such a fantastic experience to see it again through your eyes. I’m excited for your journey.
Artist with a captital A. Yes yes yes! I have watched this performance so many times. So beautiful and authentic! Her Murder Song (5, 4, 3, 3, 1) live is hypnotizing!
I’ve been blessed to have followed Aurora now for 7 years and at my age of 68 I’ve seen scores of artists live in concerts but I have no hesitation in saying that no artist has moved me emotionally like Aurora,I saw her at The Royal Albert Hall a few days ago and seriously what a special artist.only one word to describe Aurora GENIUS ❤️
Aurora is rare .. one of my favorite artists she's a fairy she's out of this world.. murder song from the same concert murder me every time I watch it.. as always you the best one in terms of understanding the artist's mentality and the value of his voice besides the professional vocal analysis❤
You have discovered the most amazing Artist and human-being !! She has some the very best live performances you will ever see. Have a look at Murder Song from this same performance !!!
For five years now I have been a warrior and weirdo as Aurora fondly calls her fans. She is so unique as a singer. But as a person even more so. The only other person I have ever encountered with such a beautiful soul is Ren and now I’m a Renegade as well. And I know that Ren is a fan of Aurora which I think is so sweet. I am so grateful to have these two people in my life.
When I discovered Ren several years after I was introduced to Aurora, I immediately thought, that Ren and Aurora have very much in common and I would love to see a collaboration between them. But I never seen/read/heard that Ren or Aurora are even aware of each other. At least I (as a fan) don't remember, that Aurora ever mentioned Ren. Because I discovered Ren later it's even more possible, that I missed Ren talking about Aurora. Can you give me a hint, where I can find that information?
I found Ren because I started watching Aurora reactors. I love them both, they're so different stylistically but both are so pure and authentic creatively ❤
@@i_am_m3384 He follows her on IG so in a livestream, I asked him about a collab with her. He said that he really likes her but that their respective styles may be too different. On the other hand, he said, that fact might do the final product extra good. I don’t know if she knows about him though. Or what she thinks about him in case she does.
Great reaction and insights. I'm 70 years old and discovered her about two months ago. Within 10 seconds of her version of "Walking In The Air" I knew I'd found my new lifetime favorite artist...and that is wide space, everything from bluegrass to Celtic to metal. Those of who do connect with her spirit, do so deeply. Very deeply.
This is an early outing… She is now touring her fourth album ‘What Happened to the Heart.’ Every song on this is different, each brilliant musically and lyrically. She just released a video collaborating with Jacob Collier for Greenpeace, another masterpiece: I weep every time I hear it, and I’m a seventy-three-year-old retired psychologist. She didn’t want to be a performer, but her mother said she could help others by sharing her gifts. She hated performance for the first few years, then learned to empathize with the reactions of her audiences, and it has become a nearly mystical experience for her and her fans. Do yourself a favour and jump down this rabbit hole.
That was a very beautiful reaction sir. I am sixty year and have follow this thiny natural force for almost bin ten years now i have loved her artistery the hole time. I must say when i heard you what you like. I get the tears sickness. Thanks for that. Love it. I certainly hope that you do more live performances from her. Trust me on this. My favourite performance ever been made. Lucky - live in Nidarosdome (a big cathedral in northern central Norway) This one is one the few soulsongs for me. Thanks again sir and keep the good work you do.❤❤❤ Sorry about my bad english.
She was actually very nervous here she said in the interview after the performance, it was her largest performance so far with 8000 in the venue and cameras recording for TV. But she has this ability to get completely lost in the music, so it doesn't bother her in the moment, but then when the song ends she "wakes up" and looks really scared. She performed 3 songs at this concert, and between Half The World Away (Oasis cover) and Runaway, she said a few words to the audience and the Nobel prize winners, and she ended with: "I'm truly honored to be here, and a bit frightened". Aurora agrees with you about channeling the music, she said this in a 2019 interview that is on youtube: "I don't think I opened my eyes the first year (of her career), and I usually stood in one place, and I moved my hands a lot quite frantically, because I have so much energy when I sing, and I can feel like you know, it comes from like a different place, like from the place of music, if it's... you know this divine place. I get like... I get too much energy for my tiny human shape. I didn't really know what to do with it, so it kind of made me almost shake." But NOW I know where to put it: Out... you know, to the people in the crowd, and my eyes are open and my hands are open, and it feels very good so it has evolved a lot." And she said this in a 2022 interview: "Because when they (songs) come from you, eventually they will come to an ending.... ...but when it goes through you, there is no ending to the source. It is very endless."
The pool of amazing performances from Aurora is very deep, but sooo worth the dive. If I were to recommend a more subtle tune of hers, try "It happened Quiet", Live at the Current. Super-crisp and personal...just her, a guitar and her backup singer in a studio. Then again, like others have mentioned, Murder Song (5,4,3,2,1) is almost required listening and comes in 3 flavors, all amazing...this concert, the video, and NPR's Tiny Desk Concert (which comes with 2 other tunes) Also, she's mentioned before that the way she moves on stage is almost compulsive, in that she has to find other ways to let out the music, so she dances and moves with the flow.
I stumbled across AURORA approximately the same time as I bumped into Ren I've been suffering from eargasims ever since, they are both walking, talking, singing musical instruments, ohhhh the joy thanks Tim love your reactions ❤️ 68 years old
And that is a huge stage with a special audience to say the least. Including royalty, politicians and researchers from many countries. Fantastic performance by such a young artist. Really think you would appreciate her concert in Nidsrosdomen cathedral, where she performs with a fantastic orchestra.
Love that you've covered Aurora! You gotta check out her performance of Murder Song (5, 4, 3, 2, 1) she did at The 2015 Nobel Peace Prize Concert. It's incredible. She's incredible 🥰
Former theater kid and choir enthusiast! First time seeing your channel, I love your breakdowns. Also first time hearing this song live…I’m not crying, you’re crying 🥹😭🥺🩵
Great reaction to my favourite artist ever🥰 I’m 55 years old, and I’ve been a fan for almost 10 years🦋 Aurora is now 28 years old and has released 4 albums (5 if you ask her) She has so many great songs, so I really hope you will continue this journey👍 “Runaway” is an important song for her❤️ I highly recommend: “It Happened Quiet” live at Current 2019 This song was inspired by domestic violence. She gets killed and in the end she comes back to haunt him. “Through the eyes of a child” live at Nidarosdomen (cathedral in Norway) 2017 This is also an important song for her. “Murder song (5,4,3,2,1)” live at the Nobel peace prize concert 2015 A song about mercy killing. No wonder Billie was inspired by Aurora💙🦋
I'm so glad you finally discovered Aurora. For me she is ONE of the TWO if you speak about the combination of rawness, honesty and purpose. I hope you'll go down this rabbithole, cause I appreciate your reactions and your purpose very much. If you want to close the bracket before you explore her whole musical journey, look at her latest song she did with Jacob Collier for a greenpeace petition: a rock somewhere & the seed.
I'm so glad that you are doing Aurora! I hope you make her a regular reaction, she has so much amazing stuff. My recommendation is anything from her Nidarosdomen concert. She has a male choir behind her in most of the songs at the venue and it adds so much to the performance.
Aroura recently released a new album and she has performed 2 songs live for Vevo from the album. "A soul with no king" and "some type of skin". Check them out, they will blow you away.
Exquisite, like everything that Aurora does. Emotive, honest, unencumbered, soulful, heavenly, mystical, otherworldly, light, clean, deep, vocal shadows, reflections, and refractions, there is no one else like her.
Welcome to the world of Aurora ( Warriors and Weirdo's). Great reaction and break down of her song. You really can't go wrong reacting to any of her music. The depth and emotion and meaning she puts into every song she writes is unreal, like you mentioned she is deffinitely well connected to the spiritual world. Personally i would recommend continuing with some of her earlier live performances like "lucky" and " through the eyes of a child" live at the Nidarosdomen cathedral and "murder song 5 4 3 2 1" live at the nobel peace prize concert
Oh my goodness! I've just seen her in Manchester! She is an incredible artist and absolutely amazing live! I'd love to see breakdowns of more recent ones: It Happened Quiet(live at the current), Rasputin cover (Boney M acoustic/live) and the newest A Soul With No King (live performance)
Aurora is amazing Artist with of lot of great songs and different sounds (especially on last 2 albums). For sure she is worth to check more. But I would recommend next: Lucky live from Nidarosdomen, It Happened Quiet live from Current, Murder Songs live from Nobel Prize concert, All is Soft Inside live from KEXP 2018. Of course there are so much others too :).
I just simply love Aurora. She does not just sing with her voice, she sings with her entire body. Her movement is mesmerizing. And on top of that, she puts her mind and soul into the performance too. I think that at the end, her expression is just a genuine surprise that there actually are people in the room, as she has drifted to a completely different place while singing. Just astonishing.
I think AURORA doesn't care about the technique.. she just sing with her SOUL.. Thats why I love her from 2016.. she absolutely pure, my English is so bad bcs Im from Indonesia.. but when I hear AURORA I can get the meaning what she singing.. I cant describe how to wonderful she is.. ❤
I would actually recommend watching both full concerts for KEXP in Iceland, and HAIK in Norway. Each video is about 30min long, approx 6 songs in each performance, and they show you a good range of her songs and style of performance as she gets older and gains more confidence on stage. They are mesmerizing and emotional!
New subscriber here and LOVE that you’ve found Aurora!! 🙌🏻 She is phenomenal. Black Water Lilies, The Dark Dresses Lightly, Starvation, Some Type of Skin, To Be Alright…we need all of your reactions!
Aurora is truely amazing. I can't wait until you check out "Murder Song", but I would also suggest "Through the Eyes of a Child" I think that one will give constant goosebumps. On the background singers, the male guitarist does a lot of them for Aurora. You can see it in the Murder Song. He's a really good accompanist. Also, fun fact, Aurora is "The Winter Voice" in Frozen that calls to Elsa.
I was looking for someone to point out the male vocalist! He's playing the guitar and not seen early in the video due to the camera angle. (You can see it circle around him for about 7 seconds starting at 19:01.) I believe his name is Odd Martin Skålnes. If you end up listening to Murder Song (5,4,3,2,1) from the same concert, he and Aurora are alone on the stage. He plays the acoustic guitar and sings in immaculate harmony with Aurora.
Great reaction and analysis. I discovered Aurora same time as Ren two years ago and wow, two amazing original artists. Murder Song 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 at this same venue is a MUST, a truly stunning performance.
Hi there! I just discovered you and I love your reactions! I am so glad you discovered Aurora. She is a truly beautiful soul. Her music has evolved a lot over the years, and I just love seeing where her musical journey takes her. A few of my personal favourites are Murder Song, The Seed, A Soul With No King remix (ft. Nature), Cure For Me, Exhale Inhale, When The Dark Dresses Lightly, her latest collab with Jacob Collier (which you've already reacted to!) and all her Live Vevo performances are absolutely great. I hope to see you do many more Aurora reactions!
Just subscribed. Aurora is a Gem! She gets so lost in her performance's you sometimes see her have to physically shake herself back from where she went. Writer, producer dancer, her lyrics are always profound and open to interpretation. She calls her fan base "Warriors and weirdos". I've seen her live, quirky, funny, empathic and a sweet soul.
Oh man. This whole song gives me chills, but that last line gets me every time. It's like an explosion of water behind my eyes. It's so crazy how music can have such a visceral effect on you.
So much music, all different and she constantly changes her songs. Yes, an Artist but different. Jump to a recent one, "Soul with no King" but the Vevo version. Stripped back, her singing and a bit of keys plus one on strings. Stunning.
She wrote this when she was 11 about being away on tours and missing her home and family so often just wanting to go home and have a normal life with her family , so heartbreaking and As a dad of young daughters I can feel that so much more and makes this song so devastating thinking of a 9-10 year ild girl in the international spotlight missing her home and simple life so much she wrote this. 💜
So many people that do reactions are kind of clueless about the technical aspects, and often also refuse to do research before OR after they watch the video - I really appreciate that you take the time to get acquainted with a little background of the song to give you perspective on what you're talking about, as well as actually analyzing the technical AND emotional aspects of the storytelling she does. It paints a really complete picture of the piece instead of just "wow guys that was good". Aurora is one of the best artists alive today at conveying raw, childlike wonder and emotion in her work.
when i pitch her to friend's i tell them she's the musical intersection of bjork, florence and the machine, and grimes (in her more recent albums). she's such a raw emotive wellspring of creativity and compassion. she's transcended shame and i adore her! her live performance of "the dark dresses lightly" may be my favorite performance i've maybe EVER seen? my mom was gagged listening to her primal scream at the end!
@@TimWelchVocalStudio thanks! but for real (in case it got cut off) her live performance of "the dark dresses lightly" at Roskilde is life changing! kind of the perfect song to showcase her variety, playfulness, and intensity!
Yay! The Aurora rabbit hole! I imagine someone probably also recommended you check out her performing The Seed live if you like her expressive movements. I absolutely love her expansive sound and interpretive movements. She’s very unique. Gives me goosebumps, too. Don’t know if you’ve checked out any of his stuff, but one artist that really grabs me is Thom Yorke. I’m thinking specifically of a performance he did of Bloom in the Electric Lady studio. Absolutely captivating and stunning. I think you’d like it.
@@TimWelchVocalStudio Yesss, awesome. I have a couple of recommendations for him. Another great one is his performance of Daily Battles on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert. He performed that the day after I first got to finally see him in concert, just before CoVid. It was magical… One at a time, of course.😉 But yes, definitely check out The Seed by Aurora, as well. She’s very expressive and haunting in that song/performance. Runaway is one of my favourites, so I’m happy you did it. I can’t believe she wrote it when she was 11! I only wish I could have such talent. Haha
Aurora is a fairy when she performs this song. It seems that her physicality is either taking her voice to where she is singing or her voice is creating the movement. It feels genuine.
Loved the reaction! Please do more reactions of her live performances they're my fave ❤ definitely recommend anyone to go see her live if she comes to your city!
On the vibrato part, that's also one aspect I haven't seen many point out and one that I really like about her. She does add it occasionally, so she can do it, but just at the right moments. And also not consistently, a song might have it at a certain long note on one performance, but not in the next one. To me it's like her pure tone so filling and good by itself that she doesn't have to sprinkle on these details to make her sound be more "interesting". The details are more subtle but subconsciously they enrich the song anyway.
I believe the guitarist you see silhouetted sometimes in the video also did background vocals (he duets with her on another song from this performance, and you can see here he has a mic), so there's at least one male vocal. Definitely doesn't explain all the vocals we hear, though. I can't be completely sure it's him doing the big, belty "oh woh-ohhhhh"s through the climactic section, but I think it probably is--sounds like his voice. That specific bg vocal is actually one of my favorite parts of this performance. It's so simple, so incredibly consistent, and so effective. It's like the definition of support to me; it actually makes me a little emotional. (My a cappella background is definitely showing there. There's a special value in that environment of doing just one vocal thing over and over again perfectly and consistently, when the arrangement calls for it.) If that part's a track, I don't want to know, haha. None of this is to overshadow Aurora! I just really love that background part and nobody ever comments on it - it's easy not to notice it on a first listen. Since you love giving some shine to background singers, I'll mention the guitarist/singer I'm talking about is known as an artist as O. Martin and you might really like the duet I mentioned: "5, 4, 3, 2, 1 (Murder Song)" from this same performance.
Her drummer, Magnus, is also singing along with O. Martin and his voice is more of a baritone which creates a greater range of vocal sounds. Of course, a vocoder could also be used, but I think all the vocals in this performance are live. Aurora always has band members who are good singers as well as good instrumentalists.
Aurora is amazing! So captivating and ethereal. What a beautiful voice and piece! She is so pure with her voice and physicality. Yes I do agree about her similarities to Bjork. Great reaction Tim❤️By the way Ren loves her too😉❤️
Another Renegade&Weirdo here and I am SO glad you’re checking out Aurora!! Absolutely ethereal, punchy, graceful, and piercing. Love love love her Adding another suggestion I haven’t seen a lot of people mention yet, Exhale Inhale (live version for VEVO) gives me goosebumps just THINKING about it.
Well Tim, you were looking for genuine and you have hit the jackpot with Aurora. Also, as the old saying goes "You ain't seen nothin' yet.". Wait until you see her masterpiece Nidarosdomen (Trondheim Cathedral) concert, the pure magic of the HAIK concert (filmed in the forest where Aurora played in her childhood) and her concerts at music festivals and small venues around the world. As well as her astonishing vocals and brilliant song writing, Aurora has a quirky personality and she is hilariously funny, with these traits coming through in interviews and her banter with her audience. Enjoy the Aurora journey.
So happy you like her! "I went to far" is my favorite of her, but the live performance of "The Seed(Haik concert live)" is the top one I would recommend you to react
There are literally hundreds of stellar Aurora performances, but a couple that stand out in my mind are "It happened quiet" live @ the Current, and any song from the kexp Iceland mini concert. And any of the songs from the Nidarosdomen concert. Many people compare her singing style and voice to Bjork, and Delores, and I completely agree. Also, all of the members sing, but this is the original backing vocal from the song. Magnus, the previous drummer featured here, has a very deep singing voice, and usually provided the deeper tones in the live performances. There is also Martin, who has sings the mid-tones. I don't know the name of the woman who is backing Aurora in this performance, but Silja Sol used to do all of Aurora's live backing vocals. Silja's voice is as heavenly as Aurora's voice.
Awesome reaction and analysis to this special artist! Glad to hear it's going to be a "rabbit hole." For even MORE expressiveness, "Murder Song" from the same concert is what you want! Insane performance. For a lot more of those yodel flips, "It Happened Quiet" live at Nidarosdomen (though the stripped back The Current version is probably more popular). And my favorite vocal performance of all is "Black Water Lilies" live at the Honda Stage. Her voice is all over the place (in a good way) on that one.
There's a video game called Sky: Children of Light that did a collaboration with Aurora a few years ago, where they designed a playable concert experience (using her studio tracks, but the player audience was live) that would go between a concert setting with Aurora in the ruins of a colosseum and different sequences out in the world of the game. So the players would be butterflies and birds and jellyfish following the light source of Aurora's voice through these sequences, and it culminated in a big finale in the colosseum, it was gorgeous. One of the devs had been to one of her concerts and wanted to recreate the feeling of that experience. There were thousands of us playing at once and we broke the record for a live virtual concert ☺️ There's a recording of it on the official Sky TH-cam, I think. Not a suggestion for a reaction, just something to keep in mind for later if you're interested, or just an example of how much of an impact she's had on people emotionally *and* creatively 🥰
I don't think I stopped smiling, awwing and sobbing the whole concert...several times through lol. Beautiful experience with thousands of beautiful people around the world.
She is magical! Please try Through the Eyes of a Child Live Stripped. Vevo IK Lift. It is epically vulnerable and beautiful. She is enchanting.She inhabits her songs. ❤
You HAVE TO check out Aurora x Pomme - Live on Rhythm by Modzik. The vocal harmonies between Aurora and Pomme are absolutely out of this world. Pure magic.
She is as vulnerable as finely spun glass and as strong as high carbon steel. She rips you open and heals you at the same time. Who does that? Her art is almost too much to bear but you can't look away. She is a siren in the form of a wood nymph. Resistance is futile.
Aurora Akness, named because her mom said her blonde hair reminded her of the aurora borealis. AURORA is the recording artist of over 100 wonderful tracks, including different versions of many of her songs. Aurora is also the name of the roman goddess of the dawn, the greek Eos - and she uses alot of her symbolatry in her videos. I leave any other connections for you to judge : ) I think she is from another world maybe. Notice the shot where the light looks like the sun and it joins with her head. Of course that is me being fanciful. However, she constantly uses the themes of the sun and light and the morning, which is the domain of Aurora. She definitely knows the correlation. Her latest tour has an opening graphic screen they show of her rising up and then she shines and energy comes out of her fingers. Superb production.
"it feels like there is something else going on, doesn't it?" oh so you get it then. there is DEFINITELY something else going on, in my opinion.... you've already cracked the lid on a massive world. I can't wait to see you tumble down the aurora rabbithole.
I’m so glad you mentioned Dolores O’Riordan. The first time I heard Aurora I heard a mix of Bjork and Dolores. As a big fan of both, I immediately became obsessed with Aurora.
Oh I LOVE Aurora!! She is mesmerizing with an incredible instrument and crazy expressive dancing and gestures…She is a force of nature!! Check out her recent Jacob Collier collaboration.
I'M SUBSCRIBING! I absolutely LOVE aurora and i believe she was about 19 years old when she performed this. Now shes 27/28 and her voice has grown so much. There are literally so many great perfomances from her but the next best live for me would be "Through the Eyes of a Child" live on Vevo
Aurora's not human 😂. She's actually an Elf 🤣. Honestly, she's got an otherworldly ethereal style to her singing. She's autistic, and she just sees the world different. Also, she's hilarious 😂. She's got zero filters and just says whatever she's thinking.
If I'm not mistaken, she was 19 at the time of this concert. She wrote the song when she was 11. Aurora is the fifth element, an artist who must be protected at all costs. Check out The Seed, the Haik Concert songs, Warrior, Queendom... really anything of hers is worth your time. The guitarist sings the low notes - he is male.
Od Martin I think?
So excited to see you react to Aurora! It Happened Quiet Live at the Current would be a great one to do next.
Awesome, thanks! She blew my mind.
"It Happened Quiet" is the name of the track officially
Yes, do this one! Her live performances as amazing, really can’t go wrong but this version of the song is my favorite.
I agree! One of my favs😊 live at the Current version
Yes! The harmonies between her and Silja (sp?) are simply breathtaking in this version of the song. One of my favorites.
As a little girl in Norway she spent a lot of time in the forest with the animals day and night and has always been special. She was terrified of performing at first but wanted to share her thoughts and music. She wrote this one and many others when she was just a girl. In her performance of Heathens at Rough Trade East, London, she dedicated the song to “the Mother who takes care of the people who aren’t welcome in heaven.” That’s a comforting thought. One of her most fun songs is Cure For Me. But as usual with a deeper message. It’s a protest against conversion therapy to “cure” bisexual and homosexual people. She’s bisexual and regardless of what anyone thinks of that they should respect her courage. I’m hetero and I do.
As someone who came here for Ren, I'm so thrilled you're doing Aurora.. you gotta do Murder Song 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 from the same concert. It's so amazing
Yesssss✨
Yes, definitely. And then Through The Eyes Of A Child - Stripped (Vevo UK Lift), the a cappella version!
On the list!
@@TimWelchVocalStudio Great thanks. It is the only a cappella song she has done live, that is professionally recorded, and great harmonies with her band members.
same
Never heard her before. So, if you'll excuse me, I have a rabbit hole to head down.
Ahh! Same here.
do her live stuff first then the videos ;)
Best rabbithole to go down 🙂
@@knutbrgund4665 Absolutely. :)
Enjoy! You will not be disappointed. ❤
She is really something else.Her new songs are even better.And she is better live than in recordings.I'm from Norway, very proud of Aurora.❤
What an awesome reaction. Aurora is not only authentic in her singing, she is a wonderfully quirky, super talented, caring and authentic human.
She is genius and also extremely funny
Yaaaaaaaaaaasss!! Haha I’m so glad you loved her! What’s so special about her is how completely unafraid to be vulnerable she is. At 19 she was able to be completely emotionally transparent. She’s developed so much as an artist over the years and just become even more so but she has also never stopped growing musically. No 2 albums are alike. No 2 songs are alike. The scope of her music and soundscapes is incredible. Her latest album has huge electronic elements and edm and 80s influences but while keeping her vocals so uniquely hers. She really has spent her whole career writing about what it means to be human. She’s so inspiring.
This was such a fantastic experience to see it again through your eyes. I’m excited for your journey.
Hey Kat! Thanks so much for this comment. She is truly inspiring! I can’t believe it took me so long to get to her. Definitely more to come.
Artist with a captital A. Yes yes yes! I have watched this performance so many times. So beautiful and authentic! Her Murder Song (5, 4, 3, 3, 1) live is hypnotizing!
I’ve been blessed to have followed Aurora now for 7 years and at my age of 68 I’ve seen scores of artists live in concerts but I have no hesitation in saying that no artist has moved me emotionally like Aurora,I saw her at The Royal Albert Hall a few days ago and seriously what a special artist.only one word to describe Aurora GENIUS ❤️
Aurora is rare .. one of my favorite artists she's a fairy she's out of this world.. murder song from the same concert murder me every time I watch it.. as always you the best one in terms of understanding the artist's mentality and the value of his voice besides the professional vocal analysis❤
I appreciate that thanks. ✨🙏🏼
You have discovered the most amazing Artist and human-being !! She has some the very best live performances you will ever see. Have a look at Murder Song from this same performance !!!
Look up her: Live in Nidarosdomen !!!!! and : Bowie`s Live on Mars her, just with keyboard :-))
Yes! Especially the Trygdekontoret Life on Mars live from NRK. And of course, the whole Nidarosdomen concert. And...
For five years now I have been a warrior and weirdo as Aurora fondly calls her fans. She is so unique as a singer. But as a person even more so. The only other person I have ever encountered with such a beautiful soul is Ren and now I’m a Renegade as well. And I know that Ren is a fan of Aurora which I think is so sweet. I am so grateful to have these two people in my life.
i❤her

I found Ren because I started watching Aurora reactors. I love them both, they're so different stylistically but both are so pure and authentic creatively ❤
Love this!

Great reaction and insights. I'm 70 years old and discovered her about two months ago. Within 10 seconds of her version of "Walking In The Air" I knew I'd found my new lifetime favorite artist...and that is wide space, everything from bluegrass to Celtic to metal. Those of who do connect with her spirit, do so deeply. Very deeply.
This is an early outing… She is now touring her fourth album ‘What Happened to the Heart.’ Every song on this is different, each brilliant musically and lyrically. She just released a video collaborating with Jacob Collier for Greenpeace, another masterpiece: I weep every time I hear it, and I’m a seventy-three-year-old retired psychologist. She didn’t want to be a performer, but her mother said she could help others by sharing her gifts. She hated performance for the first few years, then learned to empathize with the reactions of her audiences, and it has become a nearly mystical experience for her and her fans. Do yourself a favour and jump down this rabbit hole.
That was a very beautiful reaction sir. I am sixty year and have follow this thiny natural force for almost bin ten years now i have loved her artistery the hole time. I must say when i heard you what you like. I get the tears sickness. Thanks for that. Love it. I certainly hope that you do more live performances from her. Trust me on this. My favourite performance ever been made. Lucky - live in Nidarosdome (a big cathedral in northern central Norway) This one is one the few soulsongs for me. Thanks again sir and keep the good work you do.❤❤❤
Sorry about my bad english.
💛✨🙏🏼
i just hope you aren't just a one-time reactor. she has so much more to discover. she is also about her lyrics. thanks for your reaction.
Won’t be with her!
She was actually very nervous here she said in the interview after the performance, it was her largest performance so far with 8000 in the venue and cameras recording for TV.
But she has this ability to get completely lost in the music, so it doesn't bother her in the moment, but then when the song ends she "wakes up" and looks really scared.
She performed 3 songs at this concert, and between Half The World Away (Oasis cover) and Runaway, she said a few words to the audience and the Nobel prize winners, and she ended with: "I'm truly honored to be here, and a bit frightened".
Aurora agrees with you about channeling the music, she said this in a 2019 interview that is on youtube:
"I don't think I opened my eyes the first year (of her career), and I usually stood in one place, and I moved my hands a lot quite frantically, because I have so much energy when I sing, and I can feel like you know, it comes from like a different place, like from the place of music, if it's... you know this divine place. I get like... I get too much energy for my tiny human shape. I didn't really know what to do with it, so it kind of made me almost shake."
But NOW I know where to put it: Out... you know, to the people in the crowd, and my eyes are open and my hands are open, and it feels very good so it has evolved a lot."
And she said this in a 2022 interview:
"Because when they (songs) come from you, eventually they will come to an ending....
...but when it goes through you, there is no ending to the source. It is very endless."
Thank you so much for sharing this! 1000 times yes. 🙌🏼
One of the reasons I love aurora sm is just seeing the emotion spouting out of her when performing live.
Her covers are so amazing too!!
Her song it happened quiet live at the current is the best piece of live singing I’ve ever heard
Coming!!
The pool of amazing performances from Aurora is very deep, but sooo worth the dive. If I were to recommend a more subtle tune of hers, try "It happened Quiet", Live at the Current. Super-crisp and personal...just her, a guitar and her backup singer in a studio. Then again, like others have mentioned, Murder Song (5,4,3,2,1) is almost required listening and comes in 3 flavors, all amazing...this concert, the video, and NPR's Tiny Desk Concert (which comes with 2 other tunes)
Also, she's mentioned before that the way she moves on stage is almost compulsive, in that she has to find other ways to let out the music, so she dances and moves with the flow.
Awesome, thanks! 🙏🏼 ✨💛
I'm still stunned every time I hear "It happened quiet". X
Aurora ❤ So happy you like her. Kind of had a feeling you would ✨
Yes!!! 💛✨🙏🏼 So fantastic.
me too 😁
This young lady makes my life a better place. She makes me happy. Thank you for reacting to Aurora. Cheers from a finn in Sweden.
I stumbled across AURORA approximately the same time as I bumped into Ren I've been suffering from eargasims ever since, they are both walking, talking, singing musical instruments, ohhhh the joy thanks Tim love your reactions ❤️ 68 years old
And that is a huge stage with a special audience to say the least. Including royalty, politicians and researchers from many countries. Fantastic performance by such a young artist.
Really think you would appreciate her concert in Nidsrosdomen cathedral, where she performs with a fantastic orchestra.
Love that you've covered Aurora! You gotta check out her performance of Murder Song (5, 4, 3, 2, 1) she did at The 2015 Nobel Peace Prize Concert. It's incredible. She's incredible 🥰
Former theater kid and choir enthusiast! First time seeing your channel, I love your breakdowns. Also first time hearing this song live…I’m not crying, you’re crying 🥹😭🥺🩵
lol! Welcome. 🙏🏼✨
Auroras version of Half The World Away is also great. It was used in a John Lewis Christmas ad a few years ago. Her voice is angelic
Great reaction to my favourite artist ever🥰
I’m 55 years old, and I’ve been a fan for almost 10 years🦋
Aurora is now 28 years old and has released 4 albums (5 if you ask her)
She has so many great songs, so I really hope you will continue this journey👍
“Runaway” is an important song for her❤️
I highly recommend:
“It Happened Quiet” live at Current 2019
This song was inspired by domestic violence. She gets killed and in the end she comes back to haunt him.
“Through the eyes of a child” live at Nidarosdomen (cathedral in Norway) 2017
This is also an important song for her.
“Murder song (5,4,3,2,1)” live at the Nobel peace prize concert 2015
A song about mercy killing.
No wonder Billie was inspired by Aurora💙🦋
Don't tell him what those songs are about. 🤫
That takes the surprise away.
Ahhhhh I love listening to Aurora. This is my favourite Aurora track. Running With the Wolves is my second go to Aurora track ❤❤❤
I'm so glad you finally discovered Aurora. For me she is ONE of the TWO if you speak about the combination of rawness, honesty and purpose. I hope you'll go down this rabbithole, cause I appreciate your reactions and your purpose very much. If you want to close the bracket before you explore her whole musical journey, look at her latest song she did with Jacob Collier for a greenpeace petition: a rock somewhere & the seed.
I cannot overstate how excited I am that you’re delving into Aurora ✨ She and Ren literally saved me.
I'm so glad that you are doing Aurora! I hope you make her a regular reaction, she has so much amazing stuff. My recommendation is anything from her Nidarosdomen concert. She has a male choir behind her in most of the songs at the venue and it adds so much to the performance.
Here again - love this performance and your analysis! Another reactor has crowned AURORA the “Queen of Glissando.” Thought you’d appreciate that.
Aroura recently released a new album and she has performed 2 songs live for Vevo from the album. "A soul with no king" and "some type of skin". Check them out, they will blow you away.
it's amazing ❤
Exquisite, like everything that Aurora does. Emotive, honest, unencumbered, soulful, heavenly, mystical, otherworldly, light, clean, deep, vocal shadows, reflections, and refractions, there is no one else like her.
Welcome to the world of Aurora ( Warriors and Weirdo's). Great reaction and break down of her song. You really can't go wrong reacting to any of her music. The depth and emotion and meaning she puts into every song she writes is unreal, like you mentioned she is deffinitely well connected to the spiritual world.
Personally i would recommend continuing with some of her earlier live performances like "lucky" and " through the eyes of a child" live at the Nidarosdomen cathedral and "murder song 5 4 3 2 1" live at the nobel peace prize concert
Oh my goodness! I've just seen her in Manchester! She is an incredible artist and absolutely amazing live! I'd love to see breakdowns of more recent ones: It Happened Quiet(live at the current), Rasputin cover (Boney M acoustic/live) and the newest A Soul With No King (live performance)
Ah!! that’s awesome
I’m so happy you mentioned Zombie. Every time I listen to Aurora I find myself wishing she would make a cover if that song
Aurora is amazing Artist with of lot of great songs and different sounds (especially on last 2 albums). For sure she is worth to check more. But I would recommend next: Lucky live from Nidarosdomen, It Happened Quiet live from Current, Murder Songs live from Nobel Prize concert, All is Soft Inside live from KEXP 2018. Of course there are so much others too :).
✨🙏🏼
I just simply love Aurora. She does not just sing with her voice, she sings with her entire body. Her movement is mesmerizing. And on top of that, she puts her mind and soul into the performance too. I think that at the end, her expression is just a genuine surprise that there actually are people in the room, as she has drifted to a completely different place while singing. Just astonishing.
I think AURORA doesn't care about the technique.. she just sing with her SOUL.. Thats why I love her from 2016.. she absolutely pure, my English is so bad bcs Im from Indonesia.. but when I hear AURORA I can get the meaning what she singing.. I cant describe how to wonderful she is.. ❤
Oh god I love Aurora! Fun fact, she was also the high floaty notes of the spirit in Frozen 2.
I would actually recommend watching both full concerts for KEXP in Iceland, and HAIK in Norway. Each video is about 30min long, approx 6 songs in each performance, and they show you a good range of her songs and style of performance as she gets older and gains more confidence on stage. They are mesmerizing and emotional!
New subscriber here and LOVE that you’ve found Aurora!! 🙌🏻 She is phenomenal. Black Water Lilies, The Dark Dresses Lightly, Starvation, Some Type of Skin, To Be Alright…we need all of your reactions!
Looking forward to reacting to her more!
Aurora is truely amazing. I can't wait until you check out "Murder Song", but I would also suggest "Through the Eyes of a Child" I think that one will give constant goosebumps. On the background singers, the male guitarist does a lot of them for Aurora. You can see it in the Murder Song. He's a really good accompanist.
Also, fun fact, Aurora is "The Winter Voice" in Frozen that calls to Elsa.
Ooo I love that. Thanks for that little tidbit
I was looking for someone to point out the male vocalist! He's playing the guitar and not seen early in the video due to the camera angle. (You can see it circle around him for about 7 seconds starting at 19:01.) I believe his name is Odd Martin Skålnes. If you end up listening to Murder Song (5,4,3,2,1) from the same concert, he and Aurora are alone on the stage. He plays the acoustic guitar and sings in immaculate harmony with Aurora.
Great reaction and analysis. I discovered Aurora same time as Ren two years ago and wow, two amazing original artists. Murder Song 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 at this same venue is a MUST, a truly stunning performance.
Hi there! I just discovered you and I love your reactions! I am so glad you discovered Aurora. She is a truly beautiful soul. Her music has evolved a lot over the years, and I just love seeing where her musical journey takes her. A few of my personal favourites are Murder Song, The Seed, A Soul With No King remix (ft. Nature), Cure For Me, Exhale Inhale, When The Dark Dresses Lightly, her latest collab with Jacob Collier (which you've already reacted to!) and all her Live Vevo performances are absolutely great. I hope to see you do many more Aurora reactions!
More to come! Welcome. 🤝✨🙏🏼
Yay welcome to the Aurora reactionverse. Please react to "The River" by Aurora next : )
Just subscribed. Aurora is a Gem! She gets so lost in her performance's you sometimes see her have to physically shake herself back from where she went. Writer, producer dancer, her lyrics are always profound and open to interpretation. She calls her fan base "Warriors and weirdos". I've seen her live, quirky, funny, empathic and a sweet soul.
Thanks and welcome! ✨💛🙏🏼
She’s such an amazing talent. Listen to ‘It happened quiet’ next. One of the most pure, vocal performances I’ve ever heard.
yes live from the current
Oh man. This whole song gives me chills, but that last line gets me every time. It's like an explosion of water behind my eyes. It's so crazy how music can have such a visceral effect on you.
Yes!!
So much music, all different and she constantly changes her songs. Yes, an Artist but different. Jump to a recent one, "Soul with no King" but the Vevo version. Stripped back, her singing and a bit of keys plus one on strings. Stunning.
She wrote this when she was 11 about being away on tours and missing her home and family so often just wanting to go home and have a normal life with her family , so heartbreaking and As a dad of young daughters I can feel that so much more and makes this song so devastating thinking of a 9-10 year ild girl in the international spotlight missing her home and simple life so much she wrote this. 💜
So many people that do reactions are kind of clueless about the technical aspects, and often also refuse to do research before OR after they watch the video - I really appreciate that you take the time to get acquainted with a little background of the song to give you perspective on what you're talking about, as well as actually analyzing the technical AND emotional aspects of the storytelling she does. It paints a really complete picture of the piece instead of just "wow guys that was good". Aurora is one of the best artists alive today at conveying raw, childlike wonder and emotion in her work.
when i pitch her to friend's i tell them she's the musical intersection of bjork, florence and the machine, and grimes (in her more recent albums). she's such a raw emotive wellspring of creativity and compassion. she's transcended shame and i adore her!
her live performance of "the dark dresses lightly" may be my favorite performance i've maybe EVER seen? my mom was gagged listening to her primal scream at the end!
That’s a great description!
@@TimWelchVocalStudio thanks! but for real (in case it got cut off) her live performance of "the dark dresses lightly" at Roskilde is life changing! kind of the perfect song to showcase her variety, playfulness, and intensity!
Yay! The Aurora rabbit hole! I imagine someone probably also recommended you check out her performing The Seed live if you like her expressive movements. I absolutely love her expansive sound and interpretive movements. She’s very unique. Gives me goosebumps, too.
Don’t know if you’ve checked out any of his stuff, but one artist that really grabs me is Thom Yorke. I’m thinking specifically of a performance he did of Bloom in the Electric Lady studio. Absolutely captivating and stunning. I think you’d like it.
Oh yes, I love Thom Yorke! I can’t wait to get to him
@@TimWelchVocalStudio Yesss, awesome. I have a couple of recommendations for him. Another great one is his performance of Daily Battles on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert. He performed that the day after I first got to finally see him in concert, just before CoVid. It was magical…
One at a time, of course.😉 But yes, definitely check out The Seed by Aurora, as well. She’s very expressive and haunting in that song/performance. Runaway is one of my favourites, so I’m happy you did it. I can’t believe she wrote it when she was 11! I only wish I could have such talent. Haha
Omg her live version of Through The Eyes of a Child is GOOSEBUMP CENTRAL 🖤🖤🖤
Hey as a Norwegian that come for REN i love to see you do Aurora. If you watch HAIK you can see how loved she is.❤
Reacted to her!
So so happy you reacted to Aurora. 🤗
It was such a joy watching you doing this!
Feel exactly the same listening to her and watching her. ❤
Aurora is a fairy when she performs this song. It seems that her physicality is either taking her voice to where she is singing or her voice is creating the movement. It feels genuine.
Also the Nidarosdomen cathedral concert. Amazing voice.
Thanks!
Through the magic of Aurora, I can't wait for your channel to reach million subs 🤞🏻⭐
aurora is my favorite artist ❤ she is the complete package...lyrics, music, vocals
Loved the reaction! Please do more reactions of her live performances they're my fave ❤ definitely recommend anyone to go see her live if she comes to your city!
On the vibrato part, that's also one aspect I haven't seen many point out and one that I really like about her. She does add it occasionally, so she can do it, but just at the right moments. And also not consistently, a song might have it at a certain long note on one performance, but not in the next one.
To me it's like her pure tone so filling and good by itself that she doesn't have to sprinkle on these details to make her sound be more "interesting". The details are more subtle but subconsciously they enrich the song anyway.
Aurora is a true artist. She paints a picture and also her diversity of styles of music is amazing❤
I can’t wait to get into her stuff more.
You should check "Through the eyes of a child" from the Nidarosdomen concert.
I believe the guitarist you see silhouetted sometimes in the video also did background vocals (he duets with her on another song from this performance, and you can see here he has a mic), so there's at least one male vocal. Definitely doesn't explain all the vocals we hear, though. I can't be completely sure it's him doing the big, belty "oh woh-ohhhhh"s through the climactic section, but I think it probably is--sounds like his voice. That specific bg vocal is actually one of my favorite parts of this performance. It's so simple, so incredibly consistent, and so effective. It's like the definition of support to me; it actually makes me a little emotional. (My a cappella background is definitely showing there. There's a special value in that environment of doing just one vocal thing over and over again perfectly and consistently, when the arrangement calls for it.) If that part's a track, I don't want to know, haha.
None of this is to overshadow Aurora! I just really love that background part and nobody ever comments on it - it's easy not to notice it on a first listen. Since you love giving some shine to background singers, I'll mention the guitarist/singer I'm talking about is known as an artist as O. Martin and you might really like the duet I mentioned: "5, 4, 3, 2, 1 (Murder Song)" from this same performance.
Her drummer, Magnus, is also singing along with O. Martin and his voice is more of a baritone which creates a greater range of vocal sounds. Of course, a vocoder could also be used, but I think all the vocals in this performance are live. Aurora always has band members who are good singers as well as good instrumentalists.
Great comment thank you!
Love Aurora 🧡 Great reaction as always.
Aurora is amazing! So captivating and ethereal. What a beautiful voice and piece! She is so pure with her voice and physicality. Yes I do agree about her similarities to Bjork. Great reaction Tim❤️By the way Ren loves her too😉❤️
Oo awesome!! Thanks. 🙏🏼🙏🏼
It's absolutely beautiful like Norway.
This song/performance gets me very eyed every time!
Another Renegade&Weirdo here and I am SO glad you’re checking out Aurora!! Absolutely ethereal, punchy, graceful, and piercing. Love love love her
Adding another suggestion I haven’t seen a lot of people mention yet, Exhale Inhale (live version for VEVO) gives me goosebumps just THINKING about it.
Can't wait!
Well Tim, you were looking for genuine and you have hit the jackpot with Aurora. Also, as the old saying goes "You ain't seen nothin' yet.". Wait until you see her masterpiece Nidarosdomen (Trondheim Cathedral) concert, the pure magic of the HAIK concert (filmed in the forest where Aurora played in her childhood) and her concerts at music festivals and small venues around the world. As well as her astonishing vocals and brilliant song writing, Aurora has a quirky personality and she is hilariously funny, with these traits coming through in interviews and her banter with her audience. Enjoy the Aurora journey.
So happy you like her! "I went to far" is my favorite of her, but the live performance of "The Seed(Haik concert live)" is the top one I would recommend you to react
Those Irish flips, one of Aurora's inflences is Enya.
There are literally hundreds of stellar Aurora performances, but a couple that stand out in my mind are "It happened quiet" live @ the Current, and any song from the kexp Iceland mini concert. And any of the songs from the Nidarosdomen concert. Many people compare her singing style and voice to Bjork, and Delores, and I completely agree. Also, all of the members sing, but this is the original backing vocal from the song. Magnus, the previous drummer featured here, has a very deep singing voice, and usually provided the deeper tones in the live performances. There is also Martin, who has sings the mid-tones. I don't know the name of the woman who is backing Aurora in this performance, but Silja Sol used to do all of Aurora's live backing vocals. Silja's voice is as heavenly as Aurora's voice.
✨🙏🏼
Awesome reaction and analysis to this special artist! Glad to hear it's going to be a "rabbit hole."
For even MORE expressiveness, "Murder Song" from the same concert is what you want! Insane performance. For a lot more of those yodel flips, "It Happened Quiet" live at Nidarosdomen (though the stripped back The Current version is probably more popular). And my favorite vocal performance of all is "Black Water Lilies" live at the Honda Stage. Her voice is all over the place (in a good way) on that one.
💛✨🙏🏼
Aurora is like a woodland fairy. So amazing. I’m glad you finally found her.
Still waiting for you to react to Wolf Totem by The Hu
Immediately subscribed for more AURORA😊
Coming!
There's a video game called Sky: Children of Light that did a collaboration with Aurora a few years ago, where they designed a playable concert experience (using her studio tracks, but the player audience was live) that would go between a concert setting with Aurora in the ruins of a colosseum and different sequences out in the world of the game. So the players would be butterflies and birds and jellyfish following the light source of Aurora's voice through these sequences, and it culminated in a big finale in the colosseum, it was gorgeous. One of the devs had been to one of her concerts and wanted to recreate the feeling of that experience. There were thousands of us playing at once and we broke the record for a live virtual concert ☺️
There's a recording of it on the official Sky TH-cam, I think. Not a suggestion for a reaction, just something to keep in mind for later if you're interested, or just an example of how much of an impact she's had on people emotionally *and* creatively 🥰
Awesome thanks for this!
I don't think I stopped smiling, awwing and sobbing the whole concert...several times through lol. Beautiful experience with thousands of beautiful people around the world.
Welcome to a better world stay safe and a new sub she is playing NY in December do not miss out.
Please do Aurora "Murder song 54321" live from Nobel price concert ❤
Aurora, Wardruna, Madrugada, Angelina Jordan, Ane Brun, Susanne Sundfør...
My favourite artists ❤
She is magical! Please try Through the Eyes of a Child Live Stripped. Vevo IK Lift. It is epically vulnerable and beautiful. She is enchanting.She inhabits her songs. ❤
You HAVE TO check out Aurora x Pomme - Live on Rhythm by Modzik. The vocal harmonies between Aurora and Pomme are absolutely out of this world. Pure magic.
She is as vulnerable as finely spun glass and as strong as high carbon steel. She rips you open and heals you at the same time. Who does that? Her art is almost too much to bear but you can't look away. She is a siren in the form of a wood nymph. Resistance is futile.
OH, I love this comment so much, this describes her so well!
Aurora Akness, named because her mom said her blonde hair reminded her of the aurora borealis. AURORA is the recording artist of over 100 wonderful tracks, including different versions of many of her songs. Aurora is also the name of the roman goddess of the dawn, the greek Eos - and she uses alot of her symbolatry in her videos. I leave any other connections for you to judge : ) I think she is from another world maybe. Notice the shot where the light looks like the sun and it joins with her head. Of course that is me being fanciful. However, she constantly uses the themes of the sun and light and the morning, which is the domain of Aurora. She definitely knows the correlation. Her latest tour has an opening graphic screen they show of her rising up and then she shines and energy comes out of her fingers. Superb production.
"it feels like there is something else going on, doesn't it?" oh so you get it then. there is DEFINITELY something else going on, in my opinion.... you've already cracked the lid on a massive world. I can't wait to see you tumble down the aurora rabbithole.
I’m so glad you mentioned Dolores O’Riordan. The first time I heard Aurora I heard a mix of Bjork and Dolores. As a big fan of both, I immediately became obsessed with Aurora.
I hope her VEVO performance of a Soul with No King is still on your list. 🤞🏻
Oh I LOVE Aurora!! She is mesmerizing with an incredible instrument and crazy expressive dancing and gestures…She is a force of nature!! Check out her recent Jacob Collier collaboration.
Just pointing out the drummer is also singing those lower notes! As well as the louder “hayooooo” in the last chorus
Thanks!
Thank you! I love Aurora and Ren!!!
This performance gives me goosebumps amazing
I'M SUBSCRIBING! I absolutely LOVE aurora and i believe she was about 19 years old when she performed this. Now shes 27/28 and her voice has grown so much. There are literally so many great perfomances from her but the next best live for me would be "Through the Eyes of a Child" live on Vevo
Love Aurora ❤
Aurora's not human 😂. She's actually an Elf 🤣. Honestly, she's got an otherworldly ethereal style to her singing. She's autistic, and she just sees the world different. Also, she's hilarious 😂. She's got zero filters and just says whatever she's thinking.
