Original Song:
• AURORA - The Conflict ... - Zábava
According to AURORA herself:
“This is a song for everything you never said.
All we left unsaid.
All that we still feel, lingering in the air around us.
I know a lot of you know what it feels like to be in a family where everything is painful. Remain silent. And hidden.
There is nothing more painful than seeing the one you love cry but at the same time it fills my heart. Because it's the greatest feeling in the world. To open up. And be there for someone.
If only we were brave enough.
It is really when we open up that we find the purest proof of love hidden in the conflict of our minds.
“The Conflict of the Mind” is yours now. Thank you for a great video.❤❤❤
Nice analysis and I think Aurora is a lyrical genius, emphatic highly intelligent and supremely talented singer. Thanks
nobody can prove you wrong ;-).
@@tx0h You're right, and so am I, lol .... Have a great week fellow Warrior.
Aurora talked about the song in a recent interview, translated from Norwegian, and yes it is supposed to sound like an old phone line, there was also a teaser with her listening to an old landline phone: "Because it is like you only manage to say it via a phone message, or not directly."
"It's about family, and it's about all those things people can't manage to say to each other within the family.
I always imagined a family sitting around a table and eating, and then everyone is completely quiet. And there are so many things in the room that haunts them, which they do not say to each other.
And then it is also like towards the end, then the song opens up quite a bit, and then there is that honor that it is, to be there for someone you really love a lot,
and how meaningful love becomes, when you are allowed to be there for someone, that you love.
It's the worst and the best to see you cry, as i say in the song, because it is so sad that you are in pain, but it's so lovely, that you let me get to see it."
1 year ago you started with your Aurora reactions. I was there this time, quietly in the background and was delighted by your reactions and your first-time analyses. You have changed since then and your analyzes are deeper now than they were this time. You hit the spot now and if you compare your interpretation with what Aurora herself says about the song, then it is, in my opinion, a lack of communication that is the problem in many silent conflicts. I'm really glad you found your way back to Aurora. Thank you very much for a wonderful reaktion. Can hardly wait to see your analysis on her song " Your Blood" the meet and great in china is also verry interesting...
Thanks I am 70 still thinking abd learning you remind me care for you self so you can care for others ❤
OMG.
That song made me cry.
Watching you listen and feel it had the same effect on me.
And then your analyse…
It was the ultimate kick!
You know how Aurora songs are open to interpretation.
So far, I only had feelings for them. And pieces of little unformulated ideas.
But what you said about this song opened the gates to my understanding (I didn't get the "gates" part).
And... wow.Thank you for sharing, thank you.
I clicked this so hard, I broke my finger. Thanks a lot, Rosalie. 😉
I'm so pleased to see you react to and analyze this song. I think it's an absolute masterpiece. I feel like it's too new to kind of rank it in Aurora's amazing catalog, but I think at the end of the day, it's going to be one of my favorites. I've watched/listened to this more times than I can count, and I still get emotional every time. It's a great song, but it's also so well produced to deliver the message.
Regarding the video, can we talk about Aurora's acting abilities? I feel like all the actors in this video did an excellent job, but Aurora fits right in with them. Her sad look just crushes me. You talk about that smile at the end, and I think it's a fake smile. Not in a bad acting way, but in a way that she's trying to put on a brave face, even though she is in pain. The little laugh at the end is the same way, like it's a fake laugh. I'm just in awe of her talent.
Halfway through this video I ended up in tears. Why is it always the songs that I'm adverse to that end up being the ones that hit the most. You cleared up a lot of what this song means to me and now I think it's my favourite of what she's released so far for the new album. Thank you.
I am so glad my analysis helped. I suppose perhaps sometimes the things we resist the most, try to show us something hidden or concealed that still needs healing and needs to break free. keep healing precious soul. You are seen.
@@rosalieelliottofficial What a lovely thing to say. You've made my afternoon.
This might be the best / most interesting analysis on this song I have seen... Great!
thank you very much! very happy you enjoyed it
Very cool reaction for this amazing Aurora's song. And the lyrics are poetic, deep, sad and hopeful (on the end) in the same time. I guess it does not need to be about divorce (but it can be connected). I think it is more about barriers, untold problems, complexity of emotions and what happens in our minds. And this crying is like opening up, showing your inside to someone. And that is why there is duality in perceiving this situation. As it is painful to see someone struggling or in pain (especially someone close), but in the same time it is positive as it was removing this barriers and there is possibility to communicate and even help etc. I like also:
"We find proof of love is hidden
In the conflict of the mind"
Like these problems, negative emotions or barriers can be so big that this existing love can be hidden and not showed.
Second verse is very poetic too.
The whole song is sad but the ending is positive, hopeful/empowering (you can overcome this situation, open up, be love even in such situation).
Ps. I also perceive this voice filter as a phone call. And I also think it symbolize distance or sporadic contacts/communication.
Great reaction!
You really got the song
ive been listening to this song a lot in my therapy journey and it reminds me of "dont let the sun go down on your anger" from little women. cant wait to watch this whole video.
What's great is interpretation can be up to the individual based on what's going on in their life. It doesn't have to be just one perception or interpretation.
👍Nice video addressing a very real problem today. 🖖❤
Memories can be very bittersweet. Remembering good times, yet thinking how they are in the past. Like in the Disney movie Inside Out.
That was great thanks. 😊I also get emotional watching this. That table looks familiar, and I think it does for many. Used to be a huge music nerd, and getting up there in age I don't let much new music in anymore. Aurora is an exception. I knew she had very dedicated fans, and was curious what that was all about. Apart from her obvious talents, she's special as a person, and trying to do good with her music. Another personal favorite (one of many), is "The River", which she wrote after learning about the high male suicide rates.
Thanks Rosalie for an empathic and insightful reaction. I’ve been waiting for your take on this song since it was released. As a retired psychotherapist myself, I admire your work!
wow! I am so very humbled by your admiration. My sincere respect to you for your service and work in the field. I am sure I can learn much from you. Would love to get your feedback on some things if you are ever open for a conversation. Thank you again for sharing this.
yes! i love watching your videos on AURORA! always a good, deep analysis
Ohh Rosalie. That was such an beautiful interpretation. I have heard this song so many times now and i love it so much and even more now in the end you opens my eye and it make so much sense. Thank you dear!
thank you very much! :) i am honored if i was able to add something of value to your experience with this beautiful song
Thank you for returning back to Aurora! Again as usual, very insightful analysis. I took the clothes on the table to be a metaphor in that if the family is in the “conflict in the mind”, not looking at each other, not interacting.. they are truly not present, they are just clothes at the table. As to your other question about the lyrics “when I see you cry, I get conflicted in my mind it fills me up and tears me up at the same time…. Aurora posted this right after the release of the song.
“This is a song for everything you never said. Everything we left unspoken. Everything we still feel, lingering in the air around us.
I know many of you know how it feels to be in a family, where everything painful. Remains quiet. And hidden.
There is nothing more painful than seeing the ones I love cry, but at the same time it fills my heart up. Because it’s the greatest feeling in the world. To open up. And be there for someone.
If only, we were brave enough.
It’s truly when we open up We find the purest proof of love hidden in the conflict of our minds.
“The Conflict Of The Mind” is now yours. X”
18:30
This line makes me think of someone struggling between feeling empathy for a loved one, and perhaps struggling with the feeling that their sadness might be deserved.
For example, feeling her parents deserve to be miserable for tearing the family apart, while also feeling deep hurt at seeing them upset. A sort of war between anger and compassion.
Great video, very interesting thoughts. I was thinking "empty shells", or something like "they are so distant from each other, so they are empty" .... So difficult to translate to english what I am trying to say 😅.
I will say this.... Aurora is fantastic in every way in her art. This video REALLY makes you think!
i like that!! very good interpretation and analysis on your part.
That phone sound you were talking about is also Aurora. 4:06 That's her voice.
I think Aurora's "hehe" at the end you didn't hear anymore because you already spoke. 😊
So you mean the "arpeggio" is the sampled voice of Aurora and then played like notes on a keyboard? Cool!
@@staffankarlsson1428 yes
@@staffankarlsson1428 it's even cooler, here is what the coproducer stated:
>>“The Conflict of the Mind” OUT NOW. We made this one last winter in a cabin in Rosendal, Norway not long after @auroramusic & I met & made “Your Blood.” It took me 3 planes, 17 hours + a boat ride to get there, but it was all worth it when this beautiful number appeared seemingly out of thin air at about 1am our 2nd night. The vocals were recorded by candlelight & the production was finished 100% in Rosendal amidst brisk mountainside air and in total (kinda spooky) seclusion, an unforgettable experience. A cool note about the production: her arpeggiated vocals after the chorus were actually sung straight thru on four separate tracks, not sampled. So when they start to lag behind the beat at 1:39, that was natural. We followed the off-grid timing with the drums to make that moment dramatic & disorienting, which I think plays nicely off the song’s concept. FUN FACTS.
Wow! Thanks for the info!@@tx0h
@@staffankarlsson1428 she writes songs from the elysian fields, enjoy.
Brilliant reaction, thank you for the video
Very thought provocative.
This song for me is about family specially my sister who goes through a really hard time and i dont know how to be there for her. It breaks my heart because i try to give her love but she dosnt want it. So my conflict in my mind is if i do the right thing for her, do i let her be or do i fight to be there. I dont think any of the two is right... i try in smal portions and hope she take it. I really really needed this song.
you need to see helen sjöholm perform "du måste finnas" with english subtitles, taken from the musical kristina från duvemåla. the camera shows her face, her pure emotion from desperatuon to anger with the utmost intensity! absolut mind blowing!
On the crying feeling her up and breaking her has to do with the person being able to open up to her. Being able to be yourself.
the entire What Happened to the Heart album is sickly good from production and lyrics to of course Aurora's voice. it is so experimental, full of surprises, and also sounds very personal. When this song came out a few months ago my reaction was, this is impossible. it immediately went to my number 1 position best songs ever (along with infections, through the eyes, lucky and a few other songs, all from Aurora) The conflict is my big love
I am 5:55 in and you just blew my mind Rosalie. It was right there in the trailer for this song. The telephone. That old, matrix telephone. Aurora is calling this in. She is telling us this story by phone. She needs to talk to somebody and that somebody is me. and you, and everybody. The moment you made the word telephone I felt both elated and embarrassed. I'm not the smartest man in the world but I am certainly not the dumbest, but that totally escaped me first time listening to this song. That was a cool experience you gave me. Thank you Rosalie. Got your self a case of beer for that one Ms Elliot. (Just an old, old movie pun) Subscribed. Love from Norway.
Thank you very much!! That is so cool. I had not seen the trailer or heard any interviews about this song (I prefer to review w fresh eyes). So glad I caught that. And the case of beer is def a welcome gesture :) the German in me does not mind haha
@@rosalieelliottofficial The movie is "Apocalypse Now" if you wonder. Witch you probably don't. I just wanted to mention it in case you ... l just bla bla now so. Anyway, love your style.
Es increíble como puedes verbalizar lo que pasa en mi cabeza cuando escucho Aurora, muchas gracias por ser tu ♥
Fingers tearing through the ground - Aurora; I clawed at the laminate - Ren, Seven Sins. Just an association in the moment.
Oh wow! Yes good catch. Love how you associated that
I'm just in the begining but you talk about an old phone... she made 2 ''short'' befor this MV came out, 1 was an old phone ringning, the other one she was answering the phone ... ;-)
HOW DARE YOU MAKE ME CRY 😢😂😂😂
A somewhat hidden gem of a band is the Norwegians called Leprous.
Crazy good musicians and a vocalist with an exceptional voice and voice control.
Suggestions:
Slave (live at Rockefeller)
Aquired taste (live at Rockefeller)
Nighttime disguise (studio, made by fans voting online for different sections during their time in the recording studio)
when you look for darkness its all you see clearly
long time no see. please don't tell me you missed out the giggle at the end. i liked your interpretation. i interpret it way more abstract. so i liked yours because on an abstract level both match. the bridge is meant as a accompanied canon. check out her mv 'your blood'.
When Aurora was touching the clothes on the table the camera panned to the woman's white clothes. The chair back looked like a white tombstone...did you notice that? I wonder whether that was intentional. Thanks.
I feel like the part in the mv where there's just clothes, means that she is no longer with them for the sake of her mind, but she still misses them, also in the mv she's the only one that doesn't have plate or fork and knife, it's like she's no longer in that house but now that she's alone she misses them and all that chaos that caused her to run away. And I'm sorry for being annoying but the little boys food is frozen, maybe that means that he's slowly being forgoten to take care of even tho its his birthday.
Idk this is just my understanding of mv, correct me if im wrong.
To be honest: you did a wonderful job breaking down the lyrics and its contents. Thank you very much for a well based point of view. But on the other hand, when you asked me what do I think, at the end of your reaction I was lost completely. I felt overthrown by your passionate speech. I recognise this because I often notice myself getting wrapped up in an eagerness to explain myself. The content is a truth, but your vehicle drives to fast to deliver its goods evenly. Sorry for this feedback. But I would not have done it, if your words did not touch me, like they did. Besides that, I agree on your opinion how well written this song is. Deep and powerful. Aurora never dissappoints.
Vielleicht geht es um älteste Tochter (Aurora), die aus unbekannten Gründen (Tod, Streit...) nicht mit am Tisch sitzt. Es gab einen Vorfall, über den keiner der Anwesenden reden kann, oder will. Ein wunderschönes, trauriges Lied über die Sprachlosigkeit.
interessant. auf jeden Fall möglich. Familien Dynamik ist eine komplexe Geschichte.
.. don’t understand how you se so much sadness… bur Im Norwegian so we don’t talk all the time to show how happy you always are… this is a scene for what goes on underneath with people who are connected ( I was soooo exhausted when I was i USA for a month… everyone had to talk and express themselves all the time … no time for reflection)
Best wishes from a family therapist ( for over 20 years) from Bergen, Norway
