About the group:
Aurora Aksnes (born 15 June 1996),[2][3] known mononymously as Aurora (stylized in all caps),[4] is a Norwegian singer, songwriter, dancer and record producer. Born in Stavanger and raised in the towns of Høle and Os, she began writing her first songs and learning dance at the age of six. After some of her songs were uploaded online and became popular in Norway, she signed a recording contract with Petroleum Records, Decca and Glassnote Records[5] in 2014. Aurora gained recognition with her debut extended play (EP), Running with the Wolves (2015), which contained the sleeper hit "Runaway". Later that year, she provided the backing track for the John Lewis Christmas advert, singing a cover of the Oasis song "Half the World Away".

Hope you enjoy, and I’ll see you later this week!
Your such a wonderful inspiration, receiving the true visionals and sounds. Breaking it down for those who may not have woken up yet.
Earth's Schumann Resonance is my take in regards to the various movements/motions being made during this beautiful piece.
Aurora might be channeling (the statue you're thinking of Cedric is)
"Mercury, messenger to the Gods". And that supreme entity
might be sending the message that Aurora is delivering.
to quote Geroge Carlin "The planets fine. The people are fked".
The planet is fine yes, it will survive us. We could not hurt it much, even with all the nukes we could produce. Unfortunately the ecosystem we can and are destroying.
I'd never listened to Aurora before but this one's definitely going on the playlist!
Consider exploring more of her work; she's excellent, and covers lots of different styles. She has 3 albums (with a new one coming pretty soon), lots of unreleased stuff, lots of covers she's made her own, and her live performances are top-notch. If you do check her out, enjoy the rabbit hole!
@@Deeraise Amen
,check out her song No Cure for Me. It's a different kind of song for her but awesome as always
It's a masterpiece. Not her only one, though. Great reaction, and really good to have you back.
@12:16 I think the statue is Winged Victory of Samothrace!
Another great message is in Aurora’s song The River (which also has a video). She wrote it because she read about how the pressure for men to suppress their emotions leads to high rates of suicide, and wanted a song to say that it’s okay to express your feelings.
Thanks for this reaction. Aurora is a blessing in this earth 🌎. Peace and love.🌞💚
The soft and often childlike Aurora emerging as an ancient warrior fighting for nature and the planet. Brilliance on every level. Aurora is the fifth element. She must be protected at all costs.
.... such an amazing song and performance!!!! 👍🌱🏞️🌍
I really appreciate your reactions. With a filmmaker’s eye, you break down videos in ways I really learn from. There are a few vocal coaches I follow but after, with appreciation, seeing some over time and learning about the human voice, the technical is less what I’m interested in . . . And a few folks break down lyrics but mostly with their own (and not often enlightening) interpretations. The majority of reactors listen or watch a song and say little or nothing except whether they liked it. The amount of their subscribers are dependent on their personalities. I really don’t have time to vet CZcams . . . though I will still randomly check out reactions to new songs/musicians or if not new, ones I don’t know about, to see why they are so popular. I’ve got several decades on you and my peers are so resistant to anything new no matter the genre. Meanwhile, you are a great combination: delightful and very informative. Thank you.
Glad your car accident wasn’t worse. Very sobering to think what could have been. Recover quickly and completely, Cedric!
Lucky for Aurora to be back! I'm sorry for the accident, but were glad your still here.
Great reaction. She's just a really pure performer, and I think the only reason she can express herself so effectively is that the vampiric money-obsessed music industry never sunk its fangs into her since she's from little Norway and is a bit weird and quirky. Wonderfully so, though. I think that's why people glom onto her.
Really enjoyed your reaction to this brilliant and important music video by AURORA!
Interesting fact, Aurora started to perform 'The Seed' live, long before the mv was released and also long before it was released on the album. In fact she performed the song for the first time live early 2018, about half a year before Greta did her very first school strike in Stockholm. So who knows, did Aurora inspire Greta?
this is exactly the kind of info that makes me a devotee !!!
«Hey UncLe KEnnY! FOOTBALL!! YEA!!» is one of my favourite things to quote without context. Iconic intro me thinks.
😂😂😂 that gives me so much joy
This is truly a remarkable song, and equally remarkable video. Compared to a lot of the meaningless Top10 music, including those on money & fame, this is real art.
Good to hear that you are back on your feet! Almost as good to get a new Aurora reaction! Great reaction and I really enjoy your insights.👌😊
I am happy that you are ok after this car accident. Live and health is always most important.
And thank you very much for reaction for this great and meaningful song - loved it: both song and your reaction :). Also nice you also support this message:).
Awesome and different points on the video as always! You should check out Queendom (has awesome vibes) or apple tree (more earthly)
Fantastic reaction!!! You noticed things I’ve never noticed before, simply a great analysis of the song and music video. Well done!
So glad you are ok
It has taken billions of years to create beautiful mother earth, but only 220 to destroy it so much that we are now talking about a crisis that, in the worst case, could wipe out humanity. Let this sink in! Congratulations Aurora you have made a masterpiece that is super relevant until we fix the climate problem
Good to see you back . top notch insights as always stay safe.
Dude I have been listening to aurora for so many years, and I never thought about this song like planting a seed for change. I feel like an idiot. Thank you for pointing that out
I think this is a masterpiece, both the video and song ❤ And that beat is insane... and the lyrics.... suffocate me, I will water the ground so the flowers will grow again... wow 😳❤
Very interesting as always!!
Hope you will be fully healed soon!
I just love your reactions. You’re so eloquent, so intelligent, so full of insight. So Thank you.
Glad you are feeling better. Just relax and listen to Aurora.
YES!
Been waiting for this 😉
The SEED as a song and this video, is prolly my most favorite by AURoRA. SO POWERFUL!
I just wish it had as many views as Runaway, someone should make a TikTok-wave going w it.
More peeps should hear this and take it in. 🎼🎶🎵🎶✨
Will check out your movie, glad to hear you are fairly ok, and getting better after your accident.
All the Best from Arctic Lo-Ve Islands, Norway ✨
I’ve watched this reaction before. You are incredibly good, and have an impressive insight. Thank you.
Wow, thank you!
Loved it. Appreciate your work. Hugs from Sweden.
Am grateful you are ok...keep healing..You know that I subscribed cause of your excellent reaction to Aurora..Thank you..
Great commentary, Cedric, I really enjoyed listening to your thoughts.
Yes, Aurora is very passionate about nature and our earth. She did a concert in the forest next to where she grew up on "Earth Day" She talked about the forest being a very special place for her and how she spent so much time in it. She added that it was the only place where nothing was ever asked of you...The concert was called "Haik" I believe and she had a great surprise during it. There are actually 2 video's the one with the all male chorus is the one that I am referring to.
Aurora doesn't act or really perform..at least that is my belief. From everything that I have seen from her...a lot of her interviews as well....Aurora just is the way that you see. What you see comes from the depths of her. I may be naive but I don't even know of anybody that just turned 25 and started writing music at 6...like and when she mastered English she put lyrics to the music and..Runaway was born as well as Running with wolves, written be a 10 year old. People that went to school with her said that she really was different in school... My point is a person can be "made" to be really intelligent partly because the aptitude and exposure to being able to get an education...a genius..is a genius. They make their own paths. I believe Aurora is more on that level. I used to act and I thought that I had an aptitude to a certain degree. I could dig deep into my past/childhood and get in touch with all kinds of feelings. In some readings people would physically react. I'm not trying to pat myself on the back or anything...my dancing was the same way. I just could feel whatever I did organically. Obviously Aurora is light years ahead of just about anybody that I know of.
Aurora's brilliance was something that she was born with and of course seeing all that she can do proves it, ...singing, composing, musician, using frequencies, interpretive dancing, being able to immerse herself into whatever she is doing....her interviews really illustrate that she is a phenomenon.
I love her. I make a point of listening to her since I discovered her. She gives my mind peace and positivity. I see a genuine gift that has been given to this crazy messed up "entertainment" world that we now have. Aurora is who she is and from what I see, no one will be able to change her. People can learn not to be afraid to reach down into themselves because that is where they will find what they have filed away.
I hope that you continue to play her songs/music on a regular basis. She can be humorous and lighthearted too. Even those can give messages.
She's literally singing/speaking/moving as a direct message to ALL of us. Coming from and through her but it's delivery is straight from mother earth.
So glad to hear you're doing okay after your accident.
I love and recommend her videos for Queendom, Apple Tree, The River, Animal, and Cure For Me. I think they all have a way of telling a visual story that makes her message that much more impactful. Her latest video, Giving Into the Love was really good, too.
Catching up on all your past Aurora videos. :)
Given your style...the things you're drawn to and notice and have keen insights on...there's a few Aurora videos you should really check out. One big one...is "A Different Kind of Human" @ The Somewhere Else Festival. It wasn't a festival per se, it was filmed on a set during the pandemic. It's THE best example of Aurora's...empathy, visually expressed. As for music videos, "I Went Too Far" has a bunch of really cool symbolism, her performance is super emotive, and it was beautifully filmed in Iceland and the aesthetic vibe is SO Scandinavian. "The River" is also a classic Aurora video in terms of representing a very ineffable emotional idea in visual language. Would love to see you do any, or all(!), of those. :}
Thank you so much for the recommendation! “I Went Too Far” sounds especially cool. Can’t wait to check them out!
@@CedricGegel1 Awesome! Looking forward to it. 😁 Just subbed...I really like your style of reaction/analysis. Tho I think the thing I appreciate most about your videos is how perceptive you are. Aurora was actually asked once what her last favorite trait in people is, and her answer was: obliviousness. Me too. And I like that you're the opposite of that. You pay attention and notice the nuances that most people overlook entirely.
I had the same experience as you with walking on the shoreline of a small harbour in my small province in eastern Canada. As a child I used to walk there with my late father and siblings and later with close friends to soak in the calming atmosphere of the lapping water and nature sounds. Lately there are numerous cottages built right along the shore line and it tears my heart out to see how it mars the peacefulness of that area, I almost cried the last time I was there.
love your insights and enthusiasm!! subscribed!
also, your eyes are gorgeous ! :)
I really enjoyed your reaction! Aurora is such an amazing talented artist, I suggest her song The River next because her video is just beautiful
Thanks for this wonderful reaction to the song. (one worthy of the song)
PLEEEASE
react AURORA The River Live Down The Rabbit Hole
Best music video ever
I'm so sorry you were in an accident and had a concussion! It's scary either way. I hope you are well!
The planet is all strong, we are fucked
Winged Victory is the statue you were thinking of.😀
😊
Could it be a depiction of Atlas you´re thinking of? The titan tasked with forever holding up the heavens, but who´s often depicted carrying the world on his back?
Off topic, but you look super cute with longer hair 🥰
Some of her other music videos that I def recommend:
I Went Too Far
Queendom
Winter Bird
The River
Hi, hope you are good. Havent heard a Aurora reaction from you for along time (so sad).
If like realy good MV`s "anoana" from HEILUNG is something special.
You must se react to Aurora, HAIK documentary/consert and NIDAROSDOMEN consert.
This girl could put most actresses to shame, but thank goodness she acts out her songs instead.
Wonder why they have removed that video, not finding the original anywhere.
More Norse (Norwegian) Artists for you: Aurora Aksnes, Einar Selvik (Wardruna), Angelina Jordan, Maria Franz, Sigrid Solbakk, Allan Walker, Anne Nørdsti, Astrid Smeplass, Susanne Sundfør, are just some of them.

Glad to see you back! And checking out 'The Seed'! It's a favorite for sure. I recommend you to follow the environmental path for one more of her videos: 'Apple Tree' is also provoking reactions from the viewer, kind of graphic, but good, great. czcams.com/video/AvPzwKQKZTc/video.html
I don't really get the "Apple Tree".....
If you want to react to something cool, I recommend the artist Aesthetic Perfection with the song Love Like Lies
The statue you are thinking of is The Winged Victory, I believe. My only caution with Aurora is Yo not over think her dancing. She is a trained dancer, and so moves with power and grace, but from what I’ve heard her say, she is totally “in the feels” with the music…totally unselfconscious, and in the moment…she goes where the music takes her. I could be wrong and her movements could be choreographed, but I dont think so. Not in general.
The Seed is the only official video of hers that is better than live performances.
At 12:15 it sounds to me like you're trying to describe the Rolls Royce Flying Lady.
THAT’S EXACTLY WHAT IT WAS
THANK YOU
a Sculpture called the Spirit of Ecstasy - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spirit_of_Ecstasy
@@grabtharshammer brilliant, thanks!!!
You are not wrong. The statue you remembered is Nike of samothraki. 🧐. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winged_Victory_of_Samothrace
Latest Release: AURORA - The Conflict Of The Mind. czcams.com/video/7TF91Zk8L5w/video.html
Thats like one of of her worst songs
I love everthing about this video exept the terrible vindturbines - who actualy distroys nature. A terrible mistake in this green shift. In Norway big international firms destoys the mountains and marskland. And it kills burds, insekts, leak hydraulicoil into the ground - spread microplastic and poxy all around. We have no idea how it will efect the land and in the sea. But they have been good with the marketing, so everbody thinks its a good ting. Its not !
I believe Jesus Christ's promise to come back to destroy those that destroys the world. Revelation 11: 18. Don't fear - all this must come to pass, probably because humans are such slow learners.
