    The video was shot pretty much in her backyard in Norway. At some point you will react to Lucky Live at Nidarosdomen which I am looking forward to. A song that best describes a part of my life that is thankfully far in the past. Going to enjoy your Aurora journey and welcome to the new Weirdos and Warriors.

      Yep, here is the actual view from the backyard (of the parents house) from an old 2014 news story about her just 5 months after she was discovered in Norway:

    A really great reaction. 😊 Aurora is a breath of fresh air in todays music industry. She is just unique in every respect. Fun fact 1: Billie Eilish heard this song and was inspired to go for her own career. Fun fact 2: The video is shot in her home area in Norway, and part of it, like the last scene, is shot in the garden where she grew up. Another early and remarkable song is Murder Song 54321. Please see her live from the 2015 Nobel Peace Prize concert. It is jaw-dropping.😁

    Great reaction 👍
    She wrote most of this song when she was 11 years old, and at that time she didn’t quite understand what the song was about. But now she knows it means home to her parents 🥰
    She’s 18 years in this video.
    She’s absolutely best live, she’s an amazing storyteller, and she captivates you straight away ❤️
    Aurora is a Norwegian singer/songwriter/dancer and music producer.
    She’s born on the 15 of June 1996
    When she was 6 years old she found an electric piano in the attic. She began playing and writing music without lyrics at the age of 6, and then with English lyrics at the age of 9.
    Her parents didn’t know about her talent until she was about 13 - 14.
    And she’s self taught when it comes to singing and playing piano 😍
    It’s actually her sister Viktoria that design her clothing, and her other sister Miranda travels with her and does her makeup 👍
    Some of the songs she wrote at the age of 9 are:
    “Lucky”
    “I Went Too Far”
    Both great 👍
    You can’t go wrong with an Aurora song, but could you please react to:
    “Through the eyes of a child”
    live from Nidarosdomen (cathedral in Norway) 2017
    The whole concert is amazing

    Nice reaction. Thanks for sharing it.
    Billie Eilish said that she was inspired by Aurora. That's the main connection. Aurora's sisters design many of her clothes and her makeup.

    Super reaction guys. Over 300 millions of this videos streams is done during the last 10 months. It was made wiral at tic-toc when a litle part of its audio track was used in a creative app.
    Since then over half a million streams each day has been steady as a clock. It seems many people use this song as kind of healing and peace giving.

    Funny that you mentioned Billie Eilish because she has a special connection to this Runaway video, she was very inspired. Later Aurora responded that people should not contribute too much influence to the song:
    youtu . be / AC1z0I0xz0w&t=40s
    "Was there a particular artist or song that you listened to growing up, that you like: 'Thats it! I have to do music, because that just spoke to me'."
    Billie: "OMG, I grew up on so many, so many artists, but I feel like the moment...Actually I was like sitting on my bed, and I was like 12, and I had already started writing music, I just did it for no reason, kind of random, I have a lot of things I need to say, and I did not know how to say them.
    But I remember sitting on my bed when I was like 12 or 11, and just like surfing TH-cam as you do, and there was this little video and it was called 'Runaway' by Aurora, and I had no idea who that was, and I had no idea what the song was, but the thumbnail looked cool, so I clicked on it. And I remember just sitting there and the intro played, and I just was like: 'Oh! That's what I wanna do', and then it just like, immediately I was just like in love with that whole idea."
    youtu . be / P_-aEdRG95I&t=643s
    Aurora: "I think Billie Eilish said that Runaway really inspired her to do music herself, and I think that's amazing cause then Runaway has served the purpose music should serve. I don't like when people say that:
    'Runaway made her make music, so it's the song that did everything'
    Because it did NOTHING compared to....like she and her brother...they have done everything. It's just a tiny seed and they are the flower.

    Fun facts about the Runaway Music Video:
    It was shot late autumn 2014 and winter 2014/2015. She was 18 at this time. She wrote Runaway at the age of 11-12 and finalized it at the age of 14.
    The parts, where she wears the furry top are shot at the west coast of the Drange peninsula, less than a mile away from her parents house.
    The parts in the forest were shot in the same forest where she played as a kid, less than half a mile away from her parents house in Drange.
    The parts, in which she wears a thin white cardigan and with some trees in the near background and the island of Lysøya in the background, are shot actually in the backyard of her parents house.

    Aurora said that she froze in those videos with no coat on. Dry snow, very cold. And the snow shots were in her parent's back yard where she wrote this song.

    Listening to the stats you were rolling off at the beginning....
    Imagine how surreal it must be to be an artist who is listened to THAT often!?
    Given the stats you relayed, and the length of the song, that means at any given second....there's like 1,200 people listening just to that ONE song, not even counting all her other stuff. If I had that kind of reach with my music, I would trip out on the fact that I can be confident every second of every minute of every hour of every day....someone somewhere is listening to my music.
    Or think of The Beatles... Ever since Paul McCartney sang the first note on their first single release, his voice has literally been vocalizing non-stop, without ANY pause or break, from that moment...up to this present moment. Somewhere on earth, Paul McCartney's voice is always, and will always, be vibrating air molecules. That's insane.....

    Nice. I hadn't seen this video before. Good review.
    I don't know if you guys have listened to Faouzia yet but she was raised in Carman MB. She is best known for her duet with John Legend ("Minefields"). Like Aurora, Faouzia is a sing/songwriter/musician. If you haven't listened to her yet try her "Tears of Gold" stripped version from Jan 15, 2020.

    Nice reaction brothers. First time at your both channel.
    What I found interesting is there is a video clip floating around youtube of Billie Eilish on Howard Stern’s show where she mentions before she got into music she heard Aurora’s music and decided THAT is what she wanted to do.
    As a musician…I’m always blown away how other artists have gotten inspired to do what ever medium they’ve chosen to create from.

    Churchyard from her KEXP in Iceland concert is quite intense; Warrior from her French tour just before covid hit; lately she has been doing a lot of acoustic stuff--more lo fi, and that usually brings out her talent more. Heathens or A Temporary High are her most recent stage songs. Her vocalizations are her own shamanic language (sometimes); she continues to think about her work--The Seed is her environmental song, the more recent stuff is about the issues of sexual rights in suppressive regimes. Her website is all about helping the Ukraine refugees. She has gained more integrity as she has matured, which is saying a lot.

    Also, no, she doesn't design her clothes--or rather she designs them and her bipolar sister makes them for her; her other sister is a cosmetologist and does her hair (when Aurora isn't hacking at it herself with her pizza shears)

    Generally you should always choose live performances maybe except her official video of The Seed.
    Murder Song from The Nobel Peace Price concert is excellent and besidde that most of what is in her concert i Nidarosdomen (Cathedral in northern Norway) is amazing. I Can mention Lucky, Walking in The Air or Through The Eyes of a Child.

    Sorry about my cumbersome "links", but my comments with links are so often blocked, I have given up on real links:
    If you really want to hear her voice here is an "a cappella" performance with amazing harmonies with band members:
    Through The Eyes Of A Child: youtu . be / CFzExUN1N8I
    Cover of "Walking In The Air" from the Christmas cartoon "The Snowman"
    "Nidarosdomen" (Nidaros Cathedral) performance: youtu . be / GUeYTWXn0Qk
    Here are some more upbeat songs:
    All Is Soft Inside (live from KEXP in iceland): youtu . be / IS2iVcGz_Ok
    The River (live from HAIK concert in a forest): youtu . be / A9AzSOJAag8
    The Seed (music video): youtu . be / _Mc_OM5oNA8 (anthem against climate change, almost the only Aurora song that is "better" / "stronger" in the MV than live, imo)
    If you want a brand new song here is a live performance of a song from her newest Jan 21st 2022 album "The Gods We Can Touch":
    Heathens: youtu . be / utKR7tAm0hg (Vevo video might need a film/sign over the video to be "safe)
    She has so many amazing cover songs, here are only a few of them:
    David Bowie - Life on Mars youtu . be / kJ095S0MmnA
    The Beatles - Across The Universe youtu . be / Zb4sIiGLXvc

Btw Billie Eilish and Aurora are not similar, Billie Eilish doesnt have talent, she isnt a true artist, she is just one of the bunch of "artists" that doesnt have talent. And also Billie is ugly, Aurora instead is a Nordic God. Period.
