    It´s not Aurora - it´s you. You said it yourself, listening to Aurora is a spiritual experience. She is tapping into the listeners feelings - holding them up for us so we can feel them again. The lyric of this song is about connection, bonding and about growing up and loosing this special bond and connection we make as children. The feelings she express in this song, is a feeling known to everyone who has growing out of the childhood. That’s what she is tapping in to… that’s why so many of us become emotional listening to this song.

    Aurora lost a childhood friend in a car accident in her early teens. I think this song was inspired by that.

    @rosemay75 Před 2 lety +44

    The grief is the loss of our inner child. Aurora wrote this song to remind us not to leave our inner child behind…
    Loved your reaction and analysis of her performance style. I hope you explore her more. She is all about live performance, story telling and sharing emotion. She gives us permission to feel feelings we have forgotten about it have suppressed. She is soul food. Please keep going.

    Hi, you are the first reactor who goes to the depths of emotion, by involving her body language, breathing, her delivery of words, the force of her spirit she incorporates within her performance. You're noticing her feeling of not being safe, vulnerable, while expressing her pain, we don't know the source of. Wow this reaction goes as deep as Aurora's performance goes. I raise my hat to you. Aurora has so many ways of expressing her musicality, no concert, no song interpretation is the same. It seems she is very much in the moment and this is what seems to inspire her. What thoughts, memories, influence her interpretation of the song, we can only guess. But the inspiration she radiates is more than half of the performance's power. This makes Aurora so unique to me. Thank you for showing us.

      Incredibly Aurora by today's standards had a very happy, healthy childhood. She was teased some growing up for being different and strange, but had lots of love and support at home. She has experienced some loss, but in general is a very happy person.
      What she is..is a true empath, and she has the ability to just completely put herself into the protagonist of the story she is telling. Her inspiration for songs usually seem to come from outside sources. But this song in particular came from her. She says in her Haik Documentary that she wrote this after a period of time that she was feeling down and weighted down by life and the world, and she wanted to return to the that childhood innocence and perspective to feel the care freeness of a child, to not forget that. The end of the song is the inner child begging to not be forgotten. The song is like a giant hug, therapeutic and heart breaking all at once.

    • @j.k.1963

      I learned Aurora has or had great trouble dealing with groups or large gathering of people. With this in mind and her great empathic character may be the source of what we are seeing in her vulnerability. Imagine standing and singing in the centerpoint of this grand cathedral, surrounded by audiences on all 4 sides of her....
      What if Aurora is overly sensitive for picking up other people's emotions. Than this stage is a focal point for all that human power and she is standing in the middle of it? Wow...

    @KittyKarenpoo Před 2 lety +67

    Aurora convinces herself that everything she is about to sing is happening to her, right now. Vocalists are taught to feel the words. I don't think anybody has ever had to teach that to her. She seems to have an innate ability to become the song, no matter what. You feel it before she even begins to sing, and then every... single... word.
    Also, be sure to spend some time listening to this same song in stripped form. It is the best a cappella vocalization I have ever heard.

    The first song by Aurora I heard was "Seed" when I was in the car with my daughter playing her Playlist. I have now become the mom that has listened to every song I can find by Aurora. She has a voice, spirit and presence like no other artist I've ever heard or seen. My song recommendations (requests) for you would include:
    Churchyard
    The Seed, It Happened Quiet, Cure For Me, Runaway, and Apple Tree

    There really is something very special about Aurora. From everything I've read about her and from interviews and documentaries, she seems to have had a very happy but unconventional childhood. She is highly empathic and not only can absorb emotions, but also radiate them out through her music, movements and sheer presence. She is highly intelligent, creative and has a vivid imagination. One of her sisters is bi-polar, so I'm sure there were some highly charged emotional events that occurred around her and she has lost one friend in an auto accident and another died in that horrible mass shooting event that occurred in Norway. So she has known tragedy and sorrow. She will also read about events that spark her imagination. The amazing thing is that some of these songs were written when she was as young as 9 years old - her lyrics are amazing - especially considering that English is not her first language. She has become more outspoken and has written songs about issues that she cares deeply about like the Environment. Not all her music is sad though - she has a lot of more upbeat songs, but there is always a deeper message in all her music.
    I'd recommend Lucky and It Happened Quiet. For more upbeat, watch any song from the KEXP mini concert.

    Aurora is not a singer. She is an artist. In every definition of the word.
    She understands that art is about expression and conveying a message to the observer ,and that great art is capable of evoking a visceral, emotional response in those open to receive the message.
    it just so happens that this artist's medium is music. And that includes how she uses her voice as an instrument and not just a vessel to carry the words.
    I've seen many singers cover Aurora songs and I think they're really on a hiding to nothing! A lot of them are really great singers. Some are even technically better singers than Aurora. None of them even come close to evoking that visceral, primal reaction, like Aurora does.
    She is a very special artist.

  • @lillm6874
    @lillm6874 Před 2 lety +7

    She’s from Norway, and so am I.

  • @kanderson2747
    @kanderson2747 Před 2 lety +11

    When she sings without words doesn’t it sound like a child? It’s sounds like how children express emotion. So powerful. Wonderful review!

  • @daviedmmcg
    @daviedmmcg Před 2 lety +7

    Aurora wrote this when she was feeling so overwhelmed by all the terrible things that were happening in the world that she wanted the innocence and protection from it all that comes with childhood.
    She is very empathetic and takes to heart the struggles and hardships of others so she wrote this when that became too much and she yearned for the bliss of childhood ignorance.
    Edit: she's never said it explicitly but I have learned that Aurora has dealt with a lot of loss in her life and I think she references that here.
    If you want some positive energy from Aurora try all is soft inside at KEXP

    @Einyen Před 2 lety +6

    Aurora lost someone she knew at the Utøya massacre in Norway in 2011, and then again lost a friend to a car accident in, I think, in 2014. She wrote the song "Why Did You Have To Go?" for the funeral and it was posted on facebook and is now on CZcams, and it is very beautiful and sad.

    • @Einyen
      @Einyen Před 2 lety +2

      She always completely immerse herself in the music, and I think in the feeling she had when writing the song, and she often shakes her head after a song to "come back" to reality.

    Great reaction to the emotion in the song. I heard she wrote it when she was 17 (a child) turning 18 (an adult). My interpretation has come to be that she wrote it from her child self to remind her adult self of the innocence she felt as a child. "Please don't leave me here." is the child pleading to not be left behind in the harsh adult world she is entering - a universal appeal for all humans. A Genius set of lyrics to accompany a beautiful melody and interpretation by Aurora.

  • @helenevigdal2531
    @helenevigdal2531 Před 2 lety +31

    There was a time when Aurora only saw all the bad things this world has to offer. She wrote this song to get out of her wystem. When we are children we see the world as a wonderful place. We don't know yet about all the evil that exists. We are loved and safe and think that all our loved ones will stay with us forever.
    Than we grow up and see this is not how the world works at all.
    There is a grief over loss of innocence and disappointment in this world and humanity. Now I speak for myself, but maybe Aurora felt that to when she wrote this song?

    • @markrymanowski719
      @markrymanowski719 Před 2 lety +2

      You are absolutely correct.
      Deep down, we all miss our innocence.
      We just don't want to go there,
      incase we freak out over the reality
      we are faced with.
      The child inside of us is hurt.
      Aurora expresses this, probably
      for the first time in music.

  • @jdwarferc3754
    @jdwarferc3754 Před 2 lety +9

    For me it's about the child we lose when we become an adult. The innocence of childhood, the purity. And it's that child who says at the end "please don't leave me here", where "here" might be the void, the past, idk. Very touching song and priceless performence.

    Guesting a Norwegian talk show she said composing and writing her songs was the part she really enjoyed. Not being on stage. On stage she feels like a tool, like a thing the songs passes through, while in the creating process she can be both the mother and father and child. “ I am everyone. And the world and God. When I make and decide. It’s a feeling I can’t describe. The feeling you have when you have made something that is yours. That no one can take from you. I love it.” About performing on stage: it’s like there a hole in my head, and it comes out of my mouth and hands.

  • @josephhoward7992
    @josephhoward7992 Před 2 lety +6

    Aurora was probably thinking about her friend that died, watch "Why did you have to go" (have tissue handy. Do not watch if you recently had anyone close die. It is very very very painful .) It is not a concert type song. I cannot watch it twice in a row, but in it's own way it is quite hauntingly beautiful.

  • @syzygy21055
    @syzygy21055 Před 2 lety +6

    It’s difficult to witness this magnificent work of art without weeping. We all carry buried grief over the loss of childhood innocence. The world forces us to grow tough emotional callouses over that tender spot because the pain of it is so unbearable. With this song Aurora has found a way to gently pierce through that protection to give voice to the child left behind. I believe that’s who makes the plea at the end: Life necessarily makes its demands, but please don’t forget I’m still here.

  • @megtree1
    @megtree1 Před 2 lety +7

    Thanks for the great reaction! I completely agree with you about the third verse. Whenever I watch this performance, it looks like she's trying to hold tears before singing "before they go" and it always makes me cry. She's young, but she has lost a few loved ones (she made some beautiful songs from the experience). So maybe her thought went to those people, especially since this is a place for prayer.

  • @lauraguebert2122
    @lauraguebert2122 Před rokem +2

    I've watched my fair share of Aurora interviews, and I cannot for the life of me remember which interview she talked about this song in, but she explained that this song came out of an interaction she had as a child where she had taken a standardized test with her classmates and she had gotten excellent marks on it. Apparently, one of her classmates said "well of course *you* did." and when she questioned them about it, they were like "because you're...you know." And basically, it was the first time she had really been exposed to the idea of autism and in relation to herself. She said that her parents had never pursued any kind of diagnosis for her because they wanted her to feel however she wanted about herself without labels or other people's expectations. So this song spawned out of her wish to be able to go back to the time before she had this experience and could just appreciate things as a child without labels and connotations and stigma. I'll try to find the interview where she talked about it, but it was extremely moving. She's incredible.

For me this is not my favourite performance of the song but it is great. My favourite for this song and it is extremly emotional when she get a fluffy dog and the emotions when she hugs it nearly desperat is heartbreaking.

    She didn't want to be famous. Someone asked her. Would you like to be famous? She said no. Told her mother. Her mother told her that her music was like medicine for her. Then said "Aurora, would it be fair to keep that from the world." So she said she would do it.

    Yes it is very beautiful and emotional. Aurora for me is a master of emotions - she is always very "in" a performance. Aurora's Lyric in a most of songs is not very easy to interpret but there are always important message and emotions behind. But as she said everyone should receive and interpret songs itself.
    I would recommend Lucky from the same concert which is one of my favorite performances:). It is great:).

  • @paulfredericksen6565
    @paulfredericksen6565 Před 2 lety +12

    Great reaction and comments. You made me think about a difference between Lara Fabian and Aurora. Lara is a consummate actor, and she is adept at portraying emotion, and letting you hear the emotion in her voice. Her voice catches or breaks momentarily, and you have to figure that should about end the vocal performance, but in the next instant her tone is strong and pure again. I feel like Aurora might be more actually experiencing or reliving an emotion rather than portraying it. Those little vocal and physical cues that you mention seem unpracticed, spontaneous and genuine.
    I don't know, they both twist me up in knots.

    Thank you for a great reaction. Suddenly the ending of the song makes sense. I can't pinpoint exactly what you said, maybe it was this part of grief. She clearly takes the stand of having a childlike mind. As a child you are open to the world, you connect with your parents and other persons that love you, and see you in the meaning see your needs, and take care of you and give you unconditional love. When we grew up we learn not all people can be trusted or want the best for us. In my opinion, what she may be referring to is this innocent non-judging state of mind we have as a child. However, a child may not understand that separation is a part of life. That makes us as children vulnerable to grief if someone leaves us, temporarily or for good because we don't understand. In that light, the last line in the lyrics gives complete meaning to me. This state of mind you have as a child is preferable, but you also put yourself at a risk to be hurt. Brene Brown, a social scientist, is talking about this issue in her books (Daring Greatly: How the Courage to Be Vulnerable Transforms the Way We Live, Love, Parent, and Lead) and talks she has been given. You also can find her here on youtube. Thank you again for your reaction to Aurora's song.

    Aurora has seen death. A close friend was killed in a car accident in 2014. She wrote and sang the song "Why Did You Go a Place?" It is an unreleased song that the mother of the young girl posted on Facebook. You need to listen to it. Heartbreaking.
    Aurora lost someone important to her at the Utøya massacre in 2011 She wrote the song "Little Boy in the Grass" for those victims.

  • @business.urist.veronika51

    Thanks for the great reaction and analysis ❤️ please wach more of Aurora's videos, she is incredibly talented.
    I think the phrase at the end of the song "please, don't you leave me here" means "please, don't leave me in adulthood." The whole song she says that she wants to feel the world like a child again. When you are an adult everything seems cold, difficult and lonely, so I think that Aurora doesn't want to stay here.
    (sorry if my english was bad, i used a translator)

    • @philsilverthorn
      @philsilverthorn Před 2 lety +2

      I agree. This song feels like Aurora is starting to understand how adults view the world and wants to be able to stay as a child or at least to hold onto her view of the world she had as a child.
      I don't think it's about holding onto naive views either. She sings "Watch them preaching sour lies" so I think she realises that adults adopt lies about "how things are in the real world" to justify the things humanity does wrong and she doesn't want to become part of that way of thinking.

  • @petermcgee2162
    @petermcgee2162 Před 2 lety +1

    In part she's reminding herself not to lose her inner child. It is possible that she's also hitting an inner cord in many of us to not lose our own connections with our inner child that can if allowed continue to inform us today, something that continues to shape our response to ourselves, others and the worlds you we live in. Perhaps quite open to a deep impact, perhaps subject to sharing in dialogue with others or not but at least don't hide. If very painful perhaps some form of counseling would be fair, not to also hide the joyful experience and view forming reminders. If this is helpful cool, definitely not to hurt or criticize. You seem to have taken her performance very personal and as you said "spiritual". Best.

    Great Reaction! You get it..... I tear up every time I see this, It's so powerful. The thing I like the most about Aurora is the way she puts her emotions, soul, and pure heart into her music and performances. I really enjoyed seeing you react to her as it felt like you really understood this. You get a Sub for sure. Thank you

    @Casin Před 2 lety +4

    If you want to see something more upbeat from her, I’d recommend Daydreamer from the HAIK concert, or Churchyard from the KEXP concert. She’s so fun to watch when she’s dancing around on stage too!
    And if you want some more emotional songs: Little Boy in the Grass, Mahogany session is quite emotional. She wrote the song for the children who died from a domestic terrorist attack in Norway (Utoya Massacre).

  • @dalemurray1318
    @dalemurray1318 Před 2 lety

    I think that "Something Subtle" is that she is unusually more connected to her spiritual being, than to her physical being. (I gather this from things she has said in interviews) I think this song is about the loss of child like innocence, and that last line makes me think of an Angel trapped in a maturing existence that she doesn't want., asking god not to leave her in THIS world.

    You are one of very few to do an accuarate reaction of Aurora, we already know she sings like a godess and if thats all someone reacts to they are missing 75% of this fairy. I am NOT saying Aurora is autistic but we can all agree on that the magic is much much deeper than just her vocals, its in her eyes, movements, her reaction to the surroundings, how she gets disconnected from reallity , her abillity to feel and connect to emotions. Havent seen a single artist in my life that has what ever Aurora has so keep up the good reactions !!

    • @tnae
      @tnae  Před rokem +1

      I look at it less as a disconnect from reality (although it could be described as that) but more as an extremely deep connection to the reality that is existing in that precise moment deep within her mind and heart. And when you couple the ability to exist so completely in that moment with the amazing ability to project that moment (that reality) and invite others into it...you get absolute magic.

    I think the grief aspect you noticed could be explained by the intro on this video to the full live concert. She was trying to carry the emotions of grief for others at Christmas, a time when it seems there is no place for those with pain during the holidays. Or that is how I interpreted it. I think she may be able to feel for others' stories and emote from that place on their behalf. Though I'm sure she is connecting emotionally to a place in her own heart that carries grief as well, as we all do to one degree or another. czcams.com/video/XXVwFvkNTEg/video.htmlsi=nxzcH9SIcFns2MxE
