- Aurora sings a song called Murder 5,4,3,2,1. Totally unexpected! What an incredible young artist. Seems so wrong for such a young person to face this kind of story, but also is SO right. Her incredible ability to completely pour herself into this story is something very special. I've never seen somebody demonstrate such emotion when singing a song. She is definitely in the moment. A must-watch.
![AuRoRa - Murder Song (5,4,3,2,1) - [[REACTION]]](/img/n.gif)
Aurora wrote this after reading an article about a man in Norway who killed his wife to end her suffering from an incurable disease !! She is amazing young artist !!)) Enjoy your Aurora trip !)) You have a lot to look forward to....Lol...))) Greetings from Norway Fan.......
So far as I can tell that story is apocrypha. The only primary source statement Aurora has ever made about the song is that the male figure in the song did love the female. That's it. The rest is all theory that got repeated so many times it has become fact.
Either way, it seems such an adult concept for such a young person to have to think about at that age. I think that is one main reason why it was so touching when I watched it.
@@larryshair She has lost several friends including one of her best in a car crash. She wrote a song for her friends parents and if you ever really want to get to an ugly cry state during a reaction it's called Why Did You Have To Go.
@@larryshair u must react to Wardruna and Aurora - Helvegen
Yeah, i've heard this story a lot as well. But Aurora has also always stated that her songs often have 2-3 layers of meaning, often one literal and many metaphorical. She has also sometimes wished she didn't share her own interpretation because that can ruin or stop fans from having their own personal takes. and Aurora has said many times that she loves that the music continues to live its own life out in the world and take on new meanings even she could never imagine. As long as they start a conversation or touch a person that is enough and almost more valuable. I personally often hear this song as a desperate cry from an abuse victim trying to justify why their abuser does what they does, rationalising that it must be for their own good, while still admitting to the abuse. But other times it sounds more like a situation like with a mercy killing. it's one of the things that keeps me coming back to Auroras music. that depending on my mood her songs can be viewed so differently and apply to so many life situations
This is a rabbit hole you will never want to come out of. Welcome to the Queendom of Aurora. Aurora's art is healing.
I am a man and I can only hope I am allowed to enter the Queendom… not kidding
Please dont be this kinda toxic fan.
She is as vulnerable as finely spun glass and as strong as high carbon steel. Her art rips you apart and heals you at the same time. Who does that? Her art is almost too intense to bear, but you can't look away. She is a siren in the form of a wood nymph. Resistance is futile!
Couldn’t have put it better myself!!!!!! Aurora is a once in a lifetime artist.
Agreed, completely...❤
This is a religious experience. Watching the moment people fall in love with her everytime someone sees this performance.
You have just discovered something you've never "ever" seen before.....and you've only just begun.
I'm a 51 year old raised on Motown, Country, Classic Pop and Rock.....Disco, Funk. I like all that music but for years, I've been a 70's Hard/Classic Rock and 80's HEAVY METAL kind of guy.....
I found Aurora about a year and a half ago, and I can say this confidently that I honestly listen to her 'every' day.
She has caught me and kept me captivated ever since......
You're in for a most Wonderful Journey.....
She is really unlike ANY thing I've ever seen or heard, and as you can see, I've heard and seen A LOT!
Keep going down this rabbit hole, you will continue to be "continually" surprised and mesmerized.....
My suggestion is to keep going with the Live Stuff....
Aurora is not only meant to be heard but meant to be heard "and" seen.....
Of course, she has studio/official video versions of her songs, but the Live one's are beyond belief...
I tell you now, "EVERY" song she has, when performed, is always different, sometimes majorly, sometimes slightly....from one another....
If you want to see something completely magical, you'll go to her Live in Nidarosdomen concert.
Watch, "Through the Eyes of a Child" and "It Happened Quiet"...
Many reactors just end up reacting to the whole concert b/c every song and moment is worth seeing......
I forgot to add, you're very observant of the nuances....I am as well....
Boy, you are in for a tremendous treat.......she is like this in every song......in some form or fashion.....
Rarely in life do we discover something truly special. I feel like a kid in a candy store. I can't wait to delve into more of her content. Thank you for your comment. I'm 55 years old and am cut with the same cloth as you, apparently. Same interest in past music. I want to just dive in , but should post these as reactions, so I guess I need to wait to hear more...
I can also honestly say that your finding of Aurora, and now the subsequent reactions to come have actually brought me back to exactly how I first felt when I came across her.......
Spot on: 19 years old. Spot on: Deep lyrics. Spot on: The most expressive and artistic singer out there. Well, that's Aurora. Extremely mature for her age. Maybe you would like Runaway at the same concert, which she wrote at 11 and/or Lucky live at Nidarosdomen Cathedral. She wrote Lucky at 9, believe it or not. And she has a HUGE catalogue of great songs, both live and videos. She's totally unique.
Absolutely right I totally agree Aurora is unique man I've been breathing in this BluePlanet for 68 years I am a musician seen a lot good and not so good but I found Aurora in 2016 and I had never experienced anything like her and her Magic yes absolutely adorable
each new day she brings some kind of new sensation and fellings she is a healer love this lady!
Great suggestions. I'd also suggest The Seed from the Haik concert, an environmental anthem, and, for something completely different, her latest MV, Cure for Me. Nice reaction.
@@thinkingoutloud7851 Thank you very much! The Seed is definitely on the list. Several people have suggested it. Thanks!
She is selfmade songs and music is made by her and her brother
@@andersnrregren9087 She have 2 older sisters ...
Literally anything by her is amazing, though she really shines live.
52 year old subscribing to watch your magical journey with Aurora. You will want to focus more to her live performances but she does have some great music videos. Also note that she changes things up from performance to performance with many of her songs. I have lost track how many versions of The Seed I have heard. I listen to her every day and I have listen to a lot of music in my day and no one has the impact on me as she does.
I can't find words to descrive this artist she seems from another dimension. She's Simply incredible
I honestly believe this is one of those performances that will be looked at ......such as Joplin at Monterey...Hendrix at Woodstock, Prince at Superbowl etc......
Maybe not the type of music you have personal Cds of, or even know the Artist but.......once you seen and heard it you have nothing but respect and appreciation for the Artist.
Aurora is a complete Artist. Rare in today's music world. Doesn't use her body or looks( which she could), doesn't use shock value or a big stage production with dancers......refuses to use autotune or lip sing.
Put most of the Artist...ahem.....who are on the billboard top 100 in a studio with every instrument they need and maybe 10 could write a song ....meanwhile Aurora can.
Have most of today's Artist explain what thier song is about and how or why it was written....oh we bought the song from another Artist or such.
When asked...who does Aurora sound like? What kind of music does she do? Compare her to a couple others?..... You really can't answer. Only answer is....she's just herself. Does her own thing.
Totally well-put. That performance was SO unique. Immediate fan!
Aurora is just magical.
I've analyzed hundreds of times this video and can't help to notice that in stage is not Aurora anymore. If you see the moments that she gives us smiles is basically the "person that was murdered" trying to justify whithin the madness of the concept the reason why she was killed. She is trying to explain afterlife what happened to the thousands of people watching her on stage (and the millions in camera) why this was okay. The pain "he" felt on doing it and there was no intention to actually hurt her but just finally let her rest. She fully drives deep into the story beyond just acting. She feels every second of the story she is telling as the caracter portrayed in this song. That is why there is certain erratic movements. The denial in her head movements and the constant gestures is her character convincing others and herself that, no matter how cruel and contradictive it sounds... he made it right. She has nothing to forgive and she can now go in peace.
However the song is not called "mercy", "savior" or anything similar because for Aurora it is still a conflicting topic. It is still murder however you wanna call it.
This is the best ever performance made and the ability she has to story tell through her voice and actions (not only the lyrics) is unique.
Hope this gives you a bit of insight of what I see and enjoy it even a bit more if it is possible XD
Stay safe fam!
Regards form Mexico
Thank you for your consideration/interpretation. It's very interesting and coherent. Maybe that's why Aurora picked up this real story. Maybe also to shed new light on the topic of euthanasia?
In any case, Aurora is a blessing with her intensity, honesty and that incredible voice.
Seen it dozens of times, the same chills. No one like her. Song might also be about an emotional betrayal?! but so powerful. Great start for your AURORA journey.
See these 3 performances! LUCKY and EYES OF A CHILD at Nidarosdomen Cathedral... Mesmerizing! Like Johnny below says and RUNAWAY at the Nobel Concert. Her biggest hit, wrote it when she was 11. It wouldn't be a stretch to say these 3 songs are about her seeing God and you feel it. I see everybody already said these. Thanks for your reaction.
From what I think I've read or heard, this song is about a married couple, the wife has a horrible, chronic health condition in which with each passing day/month/year her existence is drowned out by ever growing pain and the torment that pain brings. Story goes that she basically begs, or at least asks her husband to help her.......help her find everlasting relief and peace......
@@shawnc666 Thank you! That makes total sense.
Thanks Giga! Through the eyes of a child is up next, so stay tuned!
Yes, thus song is sung from the perspective of a woman who was killed by her mate to end her suffering from a vicious incurable progressive disease and the impact of that act of mercy on both of them. Aurora read about it and wrote this song when she was very young.
❤️Aurora❤️
She's such a communicator with such a beautiful voice and emotional delivery
This was the first Aurora song I heard a few months ago. I must have watched it 10 times over a week because I couldn't believe how she expressed the emotions. My husband on the other hand couldn't take it and walked out of the room after about a minute. She's incredible. I'm glad you reacted to her.
Aurora puts every bit of herself into each letter, syllable, word, verse, chorus. A magical being.
She had read a story of someone killing their terminally ill loved one, and wrote this.
Great reaction. You have so much to look forward to. Aurora is one of a kind. Thanks.
I have been listening to Aurora for years now and I still cry through her songs.. It hits the heart strings.
I think you're going to love Aurora. She's an incredible person who can make you smile and cry almost at will. I can only recommend any live performance by Aurora.
Everything about this girl is special. 😎
Welcome to the world of Aurora. I would strongly recommend Runaway from the same concert next, and then I Went to Far from the Honda stage. She is a true artist with surprises around every corner. Whenever you think you have her pegged she will surprise you in a completely new and amazing way.
Thank you for the recommendations. I feel like I stumbled across a golden nugget...
@@larryshair She is also an amazing and genuine human being to boot. FWIW she has said on several occasions that Runaway is the best way into her work. Enjoy the trip down this incredible rabbit hole. I know it sounds crazy, but it will change you in the best possible ways.
@@larryshair Runaway is a great recommendation. Its her biggest hit, and the song/video that made Billie Eilish decide she wanted to be an artist. But instead of reacting to the live Nobel Peace Price version i would highly recommend to do the official video instead. Then you can check out her live performence after. There is a reason the video has 288 mill views.
@@onlyme064 Done! czcams.com/video/dwdIT0MmB_0/video.html
Nice reaction! Aurora is the queen of emotional songs. I highly suggest reacting next to Lucky live at Nidarosdomen. It’s another emotional one!
I'll be sure to add that to my list for sure. I'm an immediate fan. Just one song is all it took...
@@larryshair She is "confident" because she is not really "present" in front of all those people, she is completely immersed in the song and blocks out everything else. After the song "Runaway" from this same concert you can see the moment when she "wakes up" / "comes back" to reality being very shy and almost scared. She said in an interview after the 3 songs at this concert, that she was very scared and she was just glad she did not drink too much or she would have peed herself :-)
She was discovered in 2014 in Norway, and she said years later that the first 2 years she did not enjoy performing at all. Later years she is much more present and actually confident and joking with the audience, but she still immerses herself in her music.
@@Einyen nice background. Thanks! Several people have mentioned Runaway, so I might try to get that reviewed this weekend. Thanks again!
@@larryshair Good idea, Runway was her first "major" song on her first EP released in May 2015. Before that she only had 3 singles out. Runaway has been trending hugely on TikTok the last 6 months during 2021, 6 years after the release which is kind of surreal.
The last song she performed at the 2015 Nobel Peace Prize Concert was the Oasis cover "Half The World Away", which is also a very beautiful performance. She created that cover the for "John Lewis" department store Christmas ad in the UK in 2015, and this ad is apparently a big deal in the UK.
I cry everytime i hear this song. Amazing
Emotions are the highest of praises to musicians... thank you for sharing your experience
Thanks so much! Aurora is quite special.
I know it's been a couple of years for you, but I always enjoy watching someone discover Aurora.
You have found our hidden gem! Other fantastic preformances? Well I have to pick a few, or I will need an hour to write all... 😄
Through the eyes of a child from Nidarosdomen consert or It happened quiet from live at the current.
Fantastic reaction video btw..... 👍
One of the most powerful life performances I have seen in my life....not easy to comprehend the song or how she is able to perform at that level.
Aurora in the end is like: Where these claps are coming from? Oh yeah, the audience. I forgot. I was somewhere else.
it's sureal, i saw this live so many times, and i still get emotional wen i see it again
Same here.
Impossible to watch with a straight face. Incredible.
I love watching someone discover Aurora for the first time, what a great song and performance to start with. This is an amazing young woman, musician, singer, songwriter, and all around human being. You got nothing but awesomeness ahead of you going down this rabbit hole.
Expressive yes. Not too many young singers like her and also Diana Ankudiniva express themselves this why at such young ages.
AURORA is probably not of this world
The way she delivers the emotion of this story you can almost feel the ghost of the person it was written about pass right through you.
Totally. This was my first reaction and probably one of my favorite song's I have recviewed.
Well my friend. You have discovered a brand new rabbit hole to go down and I encourage you strongly to go deeper. Not all of her material is dark. She wrote this song because she is a reckless romantic and she saw this article about a husband that killed his terminally ill wife out of mercy (and love).
Just like her name, she is a beautiful light in this world.
Well-said!
Aurora is an absolute generational artist!
Totally agree.
I’ve followed Aurora now for 5 years and have had the pleasure of seeing her live twice and there is no doubt in my mind that she is the best live performer I’ve ever seen,forget all your mainstream artists Aurora takes the art of music to another level she is that special and trust me at my age of 65 I have seen numerous artists live in concert over many years but no one has touched my emotions like her.her songwriting ability is outstanding I’ve never heard a bad song from her she takes you on a journey always singing to your soul and making you think deeply about life and the world we live in but the wonderful thing about her is the humility she shows to her fans who she simply loves for she knows how much they mean to her she’s a wonderful role model a beautiful humble human soul.I don’t say this about many but for me Aurora is a Genius and we are so blessed to have her and her music.❤️💚💙🧡💛
Thorleif is absolutely right and correct! You have no idea who you just bumped into......keep on searching and researching Aurora is absolutely one of the kind absolutely I just subscribed hopefully looking forward to see more Aurora reactions by brother future Aurorian Warrior Sir Larry welcome to the Queendom where the Viking Fairy Queen reigns Peace
Hi. I greatly enjoyed your thoughtful reaction. Thank you.
(This message is long, mainly an enthusiastic cheer of the preciousness in the discovery process of this rare artist and human.)
AURORA is a true artist, a one of a kind, who does not fall neatly into genre labels. Her lyrics are important, often like poetry and quite often metaphorical. The meanings can be interpreted many ways, and each way, upon any listen, is a correct interpretation. Many of her fans relish her live performances (including me). However, I recommend next viewing a few of her official music videos, as they more expansively convey aspects of artistic intent, and, when seriously watched, her artistic core, and creativity in use of metaphor and performance are readily apparent. Her MVs also reveal dimensions of her seriousness of communicating themes she is presenting, and the mind and heart she fully inhabits as she communicates and express - vs entertains. Her gorgeous and unique vocals and musicality are a given (she is a producer of her music, and has written for other artists).. After an initial sampling of some staple MVs, one readily comes to understands the straightforward candor, sincerity and total immersion on stage - she is not affected, putting on airs, seeking fame and adoration. For most, this is like a once in a decade artist discovery. The slow burn investment is a journey of ever mounting richness. .You will most likely get blown away, be deeply touched and affected by many of her outstanding live performances, even on repeat watches. AURORA has a new record coming out this year, so your timing is terrific. Some of AURORA-101 foundational music videos I recommend to you are Run Away, Through the Eyes of a Child (a cappella), Winter Bird, and The River. She is a genre into herself, with amazingly lovely and devoted fans of all ages and all kinds of people around the world. (I know this is too long, and I’m likely writing to the air.). She’s just such a special person, whose art is a gift, and the unwrapping is one-time special delight. Thanks.🦋❤️🫖🎹🥁🍎🌊🏔🦶🏻🧚🏼🤘🏻👘🐺🕸🐕🌔🎧🎤🎨🌲🪐🌈
Thank you for your comment! It looks like I have a wonderful path of homework ahead of me👍
@@larryshair Indeed. 💞 Best to you, and be well. 🙏🏼
Great reaction!
She is one of a kind!
Aurora said in a tv interview that the creativ process in making songs and having the control in the studio, to do what ever you want
is liberating, but ones you perform the song live on stage it's out of your hands. You as an artist isn't important anymore.
it's all about the song and she is just a tool, a vessel to the song.
It comes to her from somewhere and goes through her out to us all.
That's why she is so in the moment.
Be safe
Björn
Aurora always lives her songs. She's very mesmerizing to watch. As for this song, even though you can interpret the song many ways, I do believe she is singing literally about a mercy killing. You should try any live performance at Nidarosdomen. Try "Through the eyes of a child". Oh, and Aurora is a 25 year old singer/song writer/producer from Norway.
I can’t wait! I wanted to just jump in and binge, but I want to share the moment with each of you. This is too special.
@@larryshair I know how you feel. The minute I heard her for the first time in December of last year, I have literally spent every day watching and listening to her music and Interviews/ live streams etc. This girl is something very special. Not like many of the young artists you see today. I believe "Through the eyes of a child" at Nidarosdomen was the first thing I saw, and I was completely floored by how good she is and how much she draws you into her performances. I assure you, this journey will be worth it for you. I know some think she's a little weird, but It's a good weird. She is very quirky and different but also very sweet, kind, humble and deep.
Does Dancing Coder know you're here? Don't worry, I won't tell if you won't tell,lol. Isn't it fun watching someone discover Aurora for the first time?
What a beautiful reaction. Aurora is immersed in music. Her whole body expresses every note. I believe that she is an old soul in a young body, with vast experience. A delicate warrior, natural, free, wild, a force of nature. Please react to Everything Matters. It's blissful.
I used to think the song was litteral too, but having lived with the song for 6 years I now believe it is about the way adults kill the inner child in children supposedly out of love and a desire to protect them. She very purposefully leaves her songs open to interpretation however.
all of those movements that you picked up on are what got me. She is expressing the song not only through her voice, but her whole body. I too have never scene a performer like this before.
totally blew me away first time I stumbled upon aurora .. specifically this song and even specific live version.
It had been awhile and I was telling someone about it and saw you reacted to it. Glad I stopped by. Reminded me of the power there that I felt the first encounter. amazement and shock all combined with beauty and love and anguish. Thanks for being real
Your first encounter with someone who truly vibrates on a different frequency. So many great performances. The best are with her and only one or two other musicians. IMHO. Try ‘It happened Quiet” Live at the Current. Just Aurora and one female guitarist singing back up. You will see and hear something very special indeed.
You are really getting Aurora in a very emotional reactionary way, GOOD on YOU, Larry! Great Reaction/Analysis Vid! Female Emotions are STRONG!! Do not fear, tears are very normal. You are a good man; now can you make me a sandwich. Nice Kitchen! She is 16 here and she writes like she is in her forties. Truly amazing Talent! Very dark topic.
I love "the seed" from her. It is a powerful song in a different way and it struck my core.
Anyone who has lost a loved one to Cancer felt this at the end...or at least entertained the thought...Amazing how such a beautiful young angel can express these emotions through song...thank you Aurora...Thank you for being strong enough to write and perform this Masterpiece.
Love your observations, CF! Thank you for your comments!
Her movements on stage always seem like the music evokes such emotions in her that she has to move. That´s why it looks like it´s natural instead of choreographed, because it is.
It reminds me of watching Joe Cocker sing "With a little help from my friends". He just has to move.
You have certainly struck gold! I hope you keep going with Aurora... she will change your life! So many adventures with her. She's been writing music since she was 6. Some of her releases are from before she hit double digits in years. Also with Aurora it is always about her live performances...and each song can take on a different flavour with each rendition. I truly hope you enjoy. My recommendation is Warrior (choose any version). You'll understand why she calls her fanbase Warriors and Weirdos. :)
Thank you! I can hardly wait to dive in but want to share that first moment with each of you. Thanks!!
Aurora is Love
Woah this was a surprise for me Like the writing is really good and how each note sung and how she does the things with her voice made my hair on my arms stand on end was crazy cos I didn’t know what you meant when you held up your arms but I do now haha
Yeah and how you point things out helped me appreciate her cos I honestly am new to listening to this kind of music… the things she was singing about brought up a lot of questions about love I haven’t been exposed to that kind of love but am grateful for this opportunity to actually think about what I would do and how hard it would be to be in that situation made me really emotional thank you for your thoughts… I have a new found appreciation for these talented and gifted artist of this genre. Had to listen to this at least 3 times for me to see what you were pointing out yes I’m slow but these kinds of songs I think need to be absorbed and felt not just passively hearing it thank you once again for these!
Really glad you enjoyed! I think she’s pretty special.
So great performance. Yes this performance is very emotional. Aurora is very expressive and is "in" the song and is able to pass this emotions . I loved your reaction.
Aurora has already so many great song. You can go wrong.
For start would recommend Runaway from the same concert. Next I need to recommend Lucky live from Nidarosdomen and All Is Soft Inside live from KEXP 2018. And many many more - she even has done great covers.
I found her a few years ago. Her songs really speak to me. I'm glad you have found her!
With each performance Aurora doesn’t sing the song, she exorcises the words from her soul.
Great observation and so very true!
I came here from your suggestion, and fell in love in the sound in the first few lines. Thanks for the recommendation.
Nice! Glad to share her talent!
This song triggered me since just a month ago I was holding my 12 yr old dog that was put to sleep due to chronic illness. Such a beautiful song
I'm so sorry! That is really a tough thing to go through. We lost our dog almost a year ago and it still rips my heart out thinking about him.
Aurora is just magical here. But then she does have a magical catalogue of songs. Hope you will react to some more from her soon.
Everything she does is golden… she also has amazing covers (alltough she makes the songs her own basically)
Mate, I thought I had the wrong channel for a second there!
I just watched the music video for this song before coming here, after your suggestion in a comment. Thanks for that - amazing performer.
Glad you liked it!
She is pure art. Highly recommend her life performance of her song called through the eyes of a child
Welcome to my world, 45er guy, one of the most impressive artists I've ever seen, rocks me every time
Glad to be here!
Wow you were right Larry, this girl is phenomenal.
Nice! Glad to have given you a little bit of joy!
Aurora is out of this world.She is also THE world, her talent is incredible.
lol, your comment just gave me literal chills lol
She is my absolute obsession (female) while Dimash is my male obsession. Nobody like them! ☮❤️ Sea Point, Cape Town, South Africa
It’s as if she that young already could feel and perceive things that most of the people won’t ever understand and perceive in life, like to be completely in the moment feeling the music and it’s meaning, most of the people can’t even be in the moment
❤️❤️❤️
Do more of her. All her songs are such beautiful.
thats how she is with every song, you will see her shake her head like that in most songs. She lives the story in her minds eye.
Enjoy finding layers of meanings and symbolism in her lyrics
I get goosebumps of her singing...superb
It's a goosebump-fest!
Yeah, that ending, it's almost like she totally forgot she was singing in front of a crowd. She actually looked shocked that there were people there. I've had many a good cry from this song.
I love the way how she sing and delivered the message on it. Her hand such as connection to us and bring us to another dimension while listen to it. She's so unique and magical. Her music it's masterpieces. She have a child soul but also so mature and wise at the same time. 💚
@larryshair so crystalline was the first Aurora song I heard and as per your recommendation I listened to this one...I had to listen to it about three times to make sure I was hearing all the words and not missing something because I couldn't really understand the whole story (I got the narrator is being killed by a man who thinks he's doing it out of love) but I wasn't sure if it was actually a mercy killing or if that was how the man was rationalizing it so I gave up and came to your video to get some answers from you and the comments lol...I listened to the VEVO version but it sounds identical to this live version...I'm a sucker for a good acoustic on a sad song and her voice is clearly phenomenal...thank you for introducing me to this artist I'm sure I will be listening to more of her work.
Here I am from the Aurora and Pomme vid. Actually gave this one a listen on her page first.
Her Sound reminds me of Sia, Dido, Lily Allen... its warm and expressive.
The lyrics are so vivid and literally tell a visual story while not saying much. In her music video she has the butterflies around her and that adds another layer to the lyrics where they almost disburse from the bang.
Just now watching. Hard being empathic. Thank you.
Watch her entire Nidarosdomen concert, the whole thing is magical and amazing
Welcome to the Aurora rabbit hole.
I think you would love Diana Ankudinova, she's very young but have such old and shamanic soul, songs like HUMAN, I CAN'T FALL IN LOVE, RECHENKA, DENIERE DANSE, THE CROW, are some great examples from her music.
It's been so long and I'm back here again.
its amazing that she can bring forth the feeling of both the person "shooting" and the "victim" so well.
There isn't a victim though. It was a husband shooting his wife who had a terminal illness (a painful one).
Hello from New Zealand, I just subbed & liked.
I could see the genuine effect this song had on you.
This was an amazing reaction and just this song was what I listened to when I was going through a rough time and I am very glad I pushed through it. Amazing reaction 👍
Than you Chowder! That was my first time to react to her music! What a great start. Thank you for your kind words! Blessings!
A-MA-ZING😮
I’m in awe
Thanks Larry
Wasn't that hauntingly beautiful?
This performance moves me to tears EVERY SINGLE TIME. The music video does the same.
And I'm moved by your reaction. You just earned a new subscriber.
If I may say it, I'm quite surprised not to find two other amazing, very young artists in a channel such as yours: the Kazakh singer, poly-instrumentalist, and composer Dimash Kudaibergen, by many considered to be the best singer in the world currently living and ever lived (yep!), and Russian singer Diana Ankudinova. If you want to be stunned speechless by them, you can try listening to a recent performance by Dimash, "Stranger" (a song only he can sing, written by famous Russian composer Igor Krutoy) and a jaw-dropping performance by Diana (she was 14 or so at the time), "Rechenka". You'll be blown away by both of them, I promise you.
"Stranger" (New Wave 2021): czcams.com/video/lFsB5HVnmSA/video.html (The video is slightly out of sync, but it's the only one currently available of this song.
"Rechenka" (2018) czcams.com/video/35Dwo4QVLqs/video.html
If you don't know them, thank me later. ;-)
Thank you for your comments, Myria!
Thank you :)
You should watch Through the eyes of a child, Vivo acoustic live version
You have to love this girl , wow
She's got you too Larry. Everybody gets affected immediately by her. The Nidarosdomen concert is chilling from beginning to end.
Yep, I'm being held captive! I have heard people recommend her concert several times. I will be sure to watch it once I have finished reviewing the content :) Thanks so much for your comment!
Beautiful reaction 🦋
You are so me the first time I found out about this performance, just simply stunned by Aurora's magic and tears started streaming. I cried again today watching your reaction, but it was a good cry though 💙
If you enjoy emotional song like this, I think you will fall in love with her first album 'All my demons greeting me as a friend' 🌱
Make sure to check out the singles and the 2 other albums as well! She has grown so much as a person and so is her music. Her songs have quite a different sound now, more mature, more powerful, but still, the amount of emotion they carry and the ✨magic✨ will always be there🌷
Looking forward to all the content everyone has been kindly suggesting! Thanks so much for taking some time to comment!
Found you on Angelinas Yellow Brick road. Had to imediately 'time travel' back to your first reactions, and discovered that you covered (quite intelligently/passionately) my two favorites =) Liked how you just jumped in to the deep end of the pool when reacting to Aurora, and will love to follow your reactions on the way ahead =) There are a lot of great artists and great renditions, but I just (most often) happen to favour these two :)
Speaking of 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, this is my current top 7.
7. Murder Song (this version)
6. Running With The Wolves (official vid)
5. It Happened Quiet (at the Current)
4. The Seed (official vid)
3. Churchyard (KEXP)
2. All Is Soft Inside (KEXP)
1. The River (official)
The top 3 are the best things I've ever heard, and it's not close. I don't like to call people unique, I believe we are all gods and goddesses, but in Aurora's case it's much much more blindingly obvious than the rest of us.
There's a Peace Price- concert every year. Often with artists from the winners country. And international celebrity hosts.
Chris ... I've skimmed through the comments to date and no-one seems to have mentioned the importance of this song in the context of the Nobel Peace Prize, which is awarded annually to people or organizations that have made a substantial contribution towards world peace and the elimination of military conflict. The money prize is funded from the legacy of Alfred Nobel (1833-96) a Swedish chemist who invented dynamite and made his considerable fortune from this as well as armaments and ammunition. The entire audience at the Peace Prize concert would be aware of that and the organising committee would have approved, perhaps even suggested, Aurora's choice of song. R (Australia)
Additional: Angelina Jordan also sang at this event the previous year, in 2014.
VERY cool!
Aurora is amazing! Would also recommend Helvegen with Aurora and Wardruna, if you haven’t heard it already. Powerful song and great music from my country Norway ❤
WOW!!! Thank you for recommending this to me, her voice is amazing and really suits this style and the lyrics are very emotional, i don’t know which i like more this one or the one with pomme, because pomme’s part is great and gave me chills aswell
While i’m here, it’s my turn to recommend you a song, try:”life’s for the living” by passenger a true lyricist/poet
Nice!
Everything she does is special ❤ have you seen the doc Haik the full version? It's awesome
At that stage of her career she wasn't really confident. Aurora was so nervous about this performance that she took a pine cone with her to the press conference to help her to stay grounded (there is a clip of this on CZcams). This is part of her awesome, quirky personality, which you will see from clips of performances, interviews and her recorded live streams if you choose to go on "The Aurora Journey". The on stage magnetism of this petite powerhouse is exceptional for one so young. Oh, she is also funny enough to be a stand up comedian with her unique and honest outlook on life.
The seed is another good one by Aurora
also subscribed to follow you on the Aurora journey.. cant wait for the adventure
Thanks so much, Jeff. It is indeed my pleasure!
Love to se people’s first reaction to Aurora- she goes straight to the heart - always ♥️best from Auroras hometown Bergen - Norway 🇳🇴
Nice! If you ever bump into her, say "Hi!" for me : )
@@larryshair I dont know her, so in Norway its rude to interfeer like that. And she like to be left alone, as we know. Have seen her in town and she is left alone - thats a good thing
Her special way to express the music, often reminds me of Björk. Aurora is an awesome artist. Singer wouldn't be the right term, because it's not only her singing.
