Her real name is Aurora Aksnes and she is a singer/songwriter from Norway. She was 18 in this music video and she is 28 today. She has released 4 albums and 2 EPs and writes all her music and lyrics though sometimes with cowriters. Billie Eilish has said many times that she watched this music video at 13 and she was very inspired by it. 5 days after this music video premiered in Feb 2015 Katy Perry tweeted about Aurora and this video and recommending it, and she later came to 2 of Aurora's concerts in LA in 2015 and 2016. Aurora is also the ethereal voice in the Disney movie Frozen 2 calling to Elsa.
Very nice reaction to my all time favorite multi talented artist. She is a lyrical genius besides being a gifted vocalist. Unique, authentic and wonderfully weird, her fans are called Warriors and Weirdos. Hope to see more Aurora on your channel soon. Thanks!
@@panchiolarranaga1616 Hello my Warrior friend. 70 years old now and so happy that Aurora is here during "our" lifetime. Have a great week fellow Warrior 😍😍
As a longtime fan of the channel, I'm thrilled to see you react to this special talent! A lot of metalheads are Aurora fans, and she herself is a metalhead. Her favorite band is Gojira, and she collabs with Bring Me the Horizon on their latest album (and they have a live performance together in Japan). She wrote this song at the ripe old age of 11 (!), but where she really shines is live. Next up, I would highly recommend this song or "Murder Song" from the 2015 Nobel Peace Prize concert. She was 19 years old at that concert, and despite being admittedly very nervous, she absolutely crushed it. She's 28 years old now, and is better than ever. BTW, this was filmed near her home in Norway, and it's all very real -- she got sick making this video.
You might want to take a look at "Bring me the horizon" featuring AURORA Live in Japan. Aurora performed this one song with BMTH and had 20 minutes to get to her own live show. Aurora has suggested she is interested in her own metal album. She is a metal head.
old school metal head here. Aurora is one of my all time favorite artists, she is a true artist, not a performer. even though her live performances are better than recorded. she writes all her music, and has complete control of her artistry. and as others have noted, she herself is a metal head.
Here's the link to the suggested "Murder Song (5, 4, 3, 2, 1): th-cam.com/video/vh0SWTVwXxw/w-d-xo.html She performed two other there, including "Runaway". Treat yourself to that, it's wonderful. Her movements are spontaneous, and her eyes seem to look off into the distance. The other is "Half the World Away". th-cam.com/video/Fc7XWW_Ehb8/w-d-xo.html "Runaway" th-cam.com/video/s5QK3x-Bvo0/w-d-xo.html "Half the World Away"
(AURORA - Running With The Wolves | Pandora Sessions). It's gorgeous and no one reacts to it. Keep up the great work Anastasia & cheers from the Low Countries.
Hi Anastasia, Aurora is a from Norway and is now 28. She was 11 or 12 when she wrote the lyrics to Runaway. A suggestion is Murder Song 5,4,3,2,1.... one of my favorites
I came to recommend Murder Song also. Especially a live version. I think the Nobel Peace concert version is incredible. I think all her music is better live.
Ola Luna , congratulations , you have just discovered not only a unique artist, but also the most underrated artist of this time . At the moment there is no one who could equal her, both from her professional point of view and from the character point of view. To see such an emotional personality in the music industry is very special.
For a more metal Aurora, try Under the water, live at Honda stage, or All is Soft Inside, live at KEXP (both concerts are worth watching entirely). Or her collab' with Wardruna on Helvegen. She's very diverse and can sing everything (and doesn't like to be put in a box).
Aurora is a small universe of her own. This video is one of her very early ones (2016). It is very interesting how she has developed over the years. And whether live or in one of her (always very well thought out) official videos; her songs are very diverse and always an experience.
Welcome to the Aurora universe! Aurora is not a band its her. And i believe she wrote this perticular song as a little child. She is truly an unique and fascinating artist. I have two songs two collabs you have to check out. One is with a french singer and is just so beatiful and one is with a viking norweigan band called Wardruna. (Aurora is from norway). They are two completely different arrangements, but Aurora shines like a star in both of them. Would love to see your reaction to these two: th-cam.com/video/yX8bYwl9rKc/w-d-xo.htmlfeature=shared th-cam.com/video/FnkTuHP9q3o/w-d-xo.htmlfeature=shared I love the Wardruna live performance a little extra
I'm also a metalhead and I love Aurora. There are two bands that I'm primarly afam one is the artist Aurora and the other is Jinjer. Also Aurora herself is a metalhead
Aurora ist mal so eine ganz eigene Kategorie die da LIEBE, VERSTEHEN und NATURVERSTÄNDNIS beinhaltet! TOP 10 meiner besten Sängerinnen aller Zeiten neben Sinead O Conner, Amy Lee, Björg, Lindy-Fay Hella und mehr.
Aurora is Aurora Aknes. Aurora is also the ancient goddess of the dawn, mother to Lucifer and consort of the evening Astreus, in roman mythology. I think she is an incarnation of that Aurora energy for sure ( in my opinion ) Yes. I think she is a literal avatar. Please fall down this vast, enchanting and illuminating rabbithole. Come, her words are like wine, may we drink and grow wise. I can't tell you how much I've learned simply from researching her concerts, lyrics and from my research around her magical nature. I'm very convinced. I think she has some small hinting as well, even if she's too shy to admit it. Which makes her even more Aurora-esque as this goddess was famously the least worshipped goddess with only 3 alters ever found. Some say it is because the cult of Aurora taught that Aurora did not want worship or supplication.
She is great, you cannot go wrong listening to her! She is particularly good live, her own compositions are wonderful, and she really makes covers her own (one of my favs is her cover of David Bowie's "Life on Mars" link here th-cam.com/video/kJ095S0MmnA/w-d-xo.html )
Aurora is the Best of the best here she is live, a full gig from 2024, and you'll understand when I say the Viking Fairy Queen is Top A th-cam.com/video/wVZj0dfIbJM/w-d-xo.html

Yeah, she needed that parka for some of those shots.
@@MarkBtvd Yeah, she did not have fun at all in those sleeveless shots. She said with humor that she got sick for her fans.

I'm a fan of AC DC and Motorhead, but Aurora is my favorite young artist. deep, eccentric, phenomenally talented. she makes real art.
Aurora is on her own & above all others when it comes to lyrics, vocal ability, empathy. A unbelievably talented woman x

Everytime I hear this song its give me chills goosebumps specially on the live performance

I love the Wardruna live performance a little extra
filmed at and near her childhood home outside of Bergen Norway. she is an amazing rabbit hole to go down.
You will never stop watching her now. She puts at spell on you x

To truly appreciate Aroura, check out her live performances.
This video inspired Billie Eilish to be a singer😊
