Her musicians are so good at harmonizing with her. What a team she and her band are. I'm constantly struck by how she has no formal musical training at all. I suppose it's all down to her powers of observation and, as you say, raw talent. Talent that we see she is constantly refining and making ever more powerful. Another fantastic reaction. I always learn something from your reactions.
Ahh thanks so much!!
Damn, she is just brilliant. She is a true musical genius. I am so excited for the new album. Can't wait to see what she does next.
So, I promised to write something when you came to this one. Teardrop was actually the first Aurora song I heard. I encountered it randomly a few years ago in youtube suggestions. And then one day, for no reason at all, I watched it. And I really liked it. But I misjudged her age completely and thought she was 15. I also didn't know she made her own music, so I didn't think to look more into her. Just another voice on youtube doing covers. After that day I often saw her in other recommendations, but didn't pay it more attention. But as time went, she started to seem inevitable to me. Like I just knew that one day I would return to her be blown away. And sure enough, about a year ago I finally went back to her and started to explore her other songs. Needless to tell you, I fell down the rabbit hole and have been listening to her daily since then. So that's my origin story :)
This is also the first song I'd heard from her after a friend shared this with me about a year ago, knowing I loved downtempo. Been hooked on AURORA ever since. She's so good, and this song is a great intro to her.
Danni Feveile Börm I loved reading this! Pleased you came back to her too 👏🏻
Adam Straughan ,
You basically told my story and probably many others.
Yes! I found her through Teardrop as well but because I knew the massive attack teardrop song and was trying to listen to the original! I soon after fell down the rabbit hole as well! It didn't take nearly as long haha
I've noticed a very typical vocal technique of Aurora that she does quite often. You can pick it in this song at 4:22 and 5:09 for the top-volume notes when she got e few more centimeters distance to the microphone and opens her mouth very wide, she gives her voice a kind of hall-effect, that is a very distinctive sound she brings in many of her songs (if not in almost all of them). I know many vocalists do that, but together with her voice-tone it's so gorgeous.
Probably my favourite cover she does. Mesmerizing.
I will literally go insane if she ever covers Portishead. Stark raving mad. Also, check out her cover of La La La (the version on German TV in Berlin I think) and a freaking GREAT adorably awkward and priceless version of John Farnham's "You're The Voice". Both just her and O'Martin on guitar and backup vocals. The latter is so precious.
She covers John Farnham's "You're The Voice"?! I'm definitely checking this out! I love this song!
You're absolutely right Adam ... "what a talent" Aurora has her own way of playing covers and that's why I love her..I repeat myself but I love this girl. Aurora is unique. Big thank you Adam for this wonderful sharing. 👍💚🌱💚
Thanks man! :)
What an artist she is.
Yay! This was also the first time I heard Aurora sing.. triplej is an Aussie radio station and I heard this on the radio then went down the Aurora rabbithole. Stunning cover
This is gorgeous! Everything. She is perfection. Love your reaction. I'm a big fan of her work. Thanks for this ❤
Hi Adam, great cover by Aurora! You said in reaction not particular fan of the original, but I want to say (since nobody has mentioned it in reactions) Elizabeth Fraser is such a wonderfull and iconic voice as well. True artist from Schotland, my favourite song ever is Song of the Sirens, cover by Tim Buckley on album This Mortal Coil from the 1986 or so..Had the pleasure to see Cocteau Twins the band with Elizabeth Fraser few times live in concert , probably not everyone's taste but wonderfull
Ah, this is such a masterpiece. Absolutely first class. I cant get enough of this. That cajon drumbox is also making this very special. Really glad you liked it, Adam. Thank you again, my friend 👍😊
Sarlina A Thank you!
This might sound like a strange comment but I think that if you just heard Aurora sing and you tried to imagine what she might look like you would probably imagine Aurora 😂she looks ethereal. Almost elven.
I heard her cover of Life on Mars by Bowie first, then God is a Woman and the third was Teardrop. And off I went down the rabbit hole, because I thought if she was this good on covers her own music had to be awesome😁🥰😉
trude ra Haha enjoy your journey! 😁😁
Your reaction is always so good 🙃♥️
ghenard invento Thanks so much!
I agree with you
@@AdamStraughan Some people say Aurora was the original baby singing in the 1998 music video ;-) She started very early....
First time hearing. I liked thank you. 👍
She sings with a sound of sweet in vocals. Her style and music is so unique. I take an hour twice a day to go through her list and the more I listen... I realize I am becoming a CZcams groupie. Lol. I Think we are going to be bumping into some people from CZcams at a Norway concert someday when COVID is gone. I have to see her in person. I want to be there and hear this live. The last concert I went to was Pink Floyd in Philadelphia PA USA. front row center stage and there is no better way to experience the music you love then to be at their concert.
Beautiful Aurora sound ,beautiful real reaction.🌬🌌🤲🏻☘🍃🌾💛💕💦
Im loving this.. your reaction is always so good. Cant wait for your next reaction😆
That was the first ever song I heard from Aurora. Really liked Massive Attack and Hooverphonic back then, probably that's why it got recommended to me. I remember that I found her a bit weird, but also very intriguing. From there on I explored her music, starting with her covers, since I think that's how you get a feel for a new artist and their style. She always surprised me with her interpretations, so much beauty and innocence in them.
That's why I love watching reaction videos now, to relive those first impressions and emotions. I really like your reactions, since you are so genuine. Keep it up~
Bit late to the party but this cover was the first thing I heard from her. You think she's good but she then takes it further and hits those godlike angelic notes and it's like an explosion of goosebumps goes off in your body. The purity and clarity of her tone is just unreal.
First time hearing this somehow missed it but God how is someone this talented not bigger than she is. I believe she is about to really hit the big time it'll be a shame she's our little secret but she deserves it. Another great one Adam.
Robin Taylor She deserves to have much more fame than what she has!
I love that you don't stop the video a hundred times to talk during the initial listen. So many reaction videos stop the video and ruin the first listen. Thank you for that
May I ask, has you like me been Aurorad yet? I am so under her and I love it. I am a freediver and drive Enduro, no one controls me, but she does, my Queen of the North. She has a light that shines so bright.
Adam you crushed this review. I heard a lot of reviews of this song and yours is my favorite. Thank you for your input. Aurora… what can we say… she is Amazing and I’m In Love with Her! I’m crazy about her. I’m so happy she is alive and available to us all.
Teardrop is one of my all time favorite songs! When I heard aurora for the first time (Runaway video BTW) I thought her voice was perfect for singing teardrop... Then I've found this cover 5 min later! And from that day I stan for Queen Aurora!
Me : Omg! Great reaction Adam!
Me after 11:35 : unsubscribe! I'm out... Jk Adam you are the best!
Kurai Akuma Haha noooo! Sorry! 😓😂
I’m pleased you love the song though!
I'm glad you liked it Adam, this is probably my favorite cover, almost is a tie with across the universe,
I'm so happy to see that your channel is getting bigger and bigger everytime I watch a video you deserve it
Dulce Álvarez Ahh thank you so much!
Hi Adam. my favorite among English-language covers with her. The best thing about her is that she always does the song to her but in a very loving way. Thanks as always for you very sincere reaction.
Håkan Andersson It is indeed. And thank you!
I haven't heard this one until now. Was so great, thanks for the video
Thanks for watching :)
She had a very special mucic
This is beautiful! Good reaction!
It's weird...I thought I had already replied to this reaction.......strange........and I wrote a couple days ago in reference to her rendition of this same song live in the Verflet Online March this year which is so beautiful and delicate. She's so much herself that actually it seems she doesn't worry about anything else but how she's going to work a theme.....doesn't care what anybody may think of what and how she's doing it and the results are what they are.......... stunning and unique
Hi Adam, I've been following your reactions for weeks, and I enjoy it so much! It makes me happy that you understand and like Aurora's music! I think this cover is the best she has done. I really hope that you one day will be able to hear and see her live! Aurora is a beautiful and lovable soul and very gifted, and I am so proud and happy to be her godmother 😊🥰. Looking forward to your next reactions! Greetings from Norway
Thank you so much! That really does mean a lot! I'd love to see her live, hopefully soon! And you're her godmother??
@@AdamStraughan Yes, I am 😊. If you would like to send me a request on Instagram (margaretjobo) I'll accept it. There I have a few nice posts concerning Aurora and me. You are a serious person and I know you will respect my privacy. Have a nice day! 🌞🙏🍀
Oslo August 2016, Øya music festival.MA saw the whole Aurora concert and was very impressed, they were back stage after the concert and had a long conversation with Aurora! It would have been one of the biggest music events if these 2 mega stars could work together!
Yeeeeeees! Thank you so much for reacting to this one. Sorry about bothering you so much about it. I think I requested this one about a half a dozen times. Thank you so much.
Haha don't apologise! It's all good :D
She plays that electric piano like she sings. Her hands just caress those keys and they seem to just float along as does she. I've never seen anyone else do it like she does. Incredible. I lived thirty two years in Nashville. I would love to see her at the Ryman. There are musicians there that she would love to work with.
Never heard of Banksy, I’ll have to look that up! I bet the interviewers did applaud her. She’s been there several times and they seem to really like her :)

first time she sounds like a Cirque show just beautiful love her voicr
This was the first song I heard from Aurora. A friend shared it with me, and I was stunned at her vocals and how well she was able to capture the song. I tend to sit in bubbles of familiarity with my music, and didn't seek her out any more at the time. Later, the same friend shared "Queendom (Harp Version)" - more amazing vocals, and this time I was intrigued by the album art, too... and finally fell down the rabbit hole. I still love Aurora's "Teardrop" cover, and looking back I think she's a bit shy in this interview.
I'm looking forward to the next video you hinted at - that is maybe my favorite of Aurora's covers (next to "Nature Boy").
"Queendom (Harp Version)": czcams.com/video/eBjNEX4Tz5Y/video.html
Appreciation during performance showed on you face without words then words of reflection nicely saved for after and words chose extending and well wedded to the performance attached and extending the music. Most interesting effect, thanks.
Im just waiting for the "Spjörg" note! :O
Well done as always Adam. Keep it up!!!!! Love all your vids.
Thank you!!
Angelic. She brings out my pagan ancestry.
Another great reaction, you're very reflected!
Check out the interview she does in the same radio show, she's hilarious! 🙂
Thank you!
What a beautiful voice! ❤❤❤
Great video mate. Parabéns!
She has the same effect on me. Totally transporting. She's phenomenal... I love her
I love your reaction to all the Aurora songs you are always so passionate about her songs ❤️ please react to Gentle earthquake ...it's one of my favourite Aurora songs 😊
Thanks so much! And that song is coming 😁
Thank you for your reply I'm looking forward to watch your reaction 😊❤️
To sing like that with the added distraction of playing the piano ... I know a lot of people do it, but Aurora usually leaves it one of her band. So it would be a distraction. She said in an interview that she taught herself on her sisters piano that was a bit defective and you had to hold the power button down, so she originally learnt to play one handed... mind you she also said she styled her own hair with a Pizza cutter, which kind of points to her sense of humour.
Definitely a sharp witted intelligent person. I pity any media types who try and out kid her in an interview.
Her friend on the box I think is Magnus & I forget the guy on the (was it a baritone guitar? I know none of mine go that deep).
one of the most interesting artists
Chills over goosebumps over chills yes she is a pure talent and yes musiciens around her are always amazing and stunning.
Each song covered by Aurora becomes an Aurora's song and I always Love it. For this one I liked the original too but not as much. For "God is a Woman" I don't like the original version but I Love the version of Aurora ;o)
Thanks for your reaction, an emotional moment again :o)
Take care and be safe!
I agree! And thank you!
Auroras cover if this song is ... mindnumbingly good. Its still the same track, but with Auroras magical shine to it.
Thank you Adam.
Prob my favorite song/cover ever
Melhor cover da aurora 😍😢 lágrimas e arrepios
Chills!
Angelina jordan and Aurora are supertalenter from Norway
First song i heard from her, and by accident too. I missclicked. Best mistake i have ever made:)))))
Never was a fan of the original, but this one, i looooove :)
Good god! Your speaking voice is magnificent. Please, if you could find the time, record a reading of Neuromancer at some point. Thanks. xx ")
Thanks so much! Neuromancer as in the science fiction novel?
Watching you watching Aurora atm. Ain't she somethin'? The Angel of Norway.
@@AdamStraughan Indeed.The mighty William Gibson.
Our lady also played a show in Brazil. See link here >> czcams.com/video/otRKDDguvyg/video.html
Here voice makes me feel as if I'm in Heaven
If you want to listen to something very different that just happens to have Aurora in it, then check out The Cheimical Brothers - Eve of Destruction. It is worth it just to see how cool Aurora looks in her costume and it is a pretty cool track.
Oh and of course, check out Under The Water - Sims 4 edition.... She really did record a version of the song in the silly sims language. Somehow it still works really well.
Merwanor The Chemical Brothers music with Aurora is coming! And this Sims music sounds interesting!
Please react to her song "Little Boy In The Grass(Mahogany Session)"
Oh my favourite! 💙
Quxanna ve Phirian Hazretleri It is coming 😁
@@AdamStraughan Aurora once said, that she wrote this song with regards to the 2011 massacre on the island in norway. She lost there a friend.
Aurora is Love
Oh yeah a good one too
Who here has this on an osu beat map I had the song for a while and when I discovered Aurora I just realized that I've had this song as a beatmap all along
That is actually a good description of Aurora, She is fearless!
JimHopper1962 Thanks! She really is!
Besides fearless guys, I would definitely throw in brave and tenacious in describing how this unique artist works .!.!.
love this one :) I recommend Lucky Vevo Dscvr
❤❤❤
For another artist to react to I recommend Sigrid (Also a young artist from Bergen Norway)
As for an Aurora song/cover you already know I would like Famous blue raincoat. And maybe you can play it together with the original in one reaction video as I don't think many will know the original
Ahh perfect! Thanks!
You should really react to Grimes’ earlier stuff, right up your alley 👌
She is from no too🇳🇴
The other cover she did on this show was Across the Universe by the beatles.. I think you've done that one already though.. maybe?
It’s coming :)
Pls react to when I'm gone (getting colder)song by Aurora it's very good
With u know her back up vocals and melodies
ghenard invento Ahh nice! Thank you!
🦄💖
I have this thing that from the moment I discovered Aurora, about a month ago, I really don't want to share her with anybody else. I don't know if anyone can relate..
So early woaw !! please check the Verftet performance of this song :)
This cover is fantastic, as all her covers. I think you will appreciate her livestream of Exist for love, singing from her living room, only with the piano. Love your reactions, by the way :)
Thanks so much man!
Adam Straughan, as you can see, with my æ, in my last name, I’m Norwegian. And I think you and I, found Aurora about the same time, as you. I have become a part of her worriors and vierdows, for sure!
Have you reacted already with “It Happened Quiet” live from the Current ?
She did «Warrior» at the same time as this was recorded on «Like a version» too, if you want to react to that.
It would also be cool if you could react to this new Norwegian artist called Moyka. She has some similarities with Aurora (as you will hear) and she is from the same management as Aurora too (the same as Silja Sol, Askjell, Sigrid and Iris a.o)
«When»

Banksy - might be - no i will not tell :)
Iconic songs often have cult followings vigilantly guarding the original version like a treasure. I personally love this version, and I'm very happy that you do to.
I know this is probably a strange thing to say, but sometimes when Aurora hits those high notes, she sort of reminds me of the women who traditionally takes care of cows out on pasture . I think they're called milkmaids or something along those lines. Anyway there's a tradition for certain high note sounds they use to call the cows home, and Aurora sometimes sounds a bit like that. I love her voice, so I hope noone takes this as an insult, because it's not meant to be. There's a close relationship between those calling sounds/notes and certain parts of traditional norwegian folk music i think.
Ahh interesting! I did not know this!
I am Bansky. Then again.... who am I?
I give you permission to tell your friends that Bansky watches your reactions. You are welcome.
I think whenever you decide to react to Into The Unknown, it would be a great idea to do a two songs in one video reaction of both the original where she is the siren and her own version. She sings in both after all.
And remember, this is a Bansky recomendation. Or is it? Maybe we are all Bansky.
Dacre1000 Haha love this
Very good video, can u react to the Aurora Cover "In the Night"?
Спасибо за эмоции!!!
Вот это очень трогательное ее выступление тоже
czcams.com/video/5skBr_96dPc/video.html
I've not got into Aurora (yet?) but seeing it was this song and seeing it was your reaction made me jump in. For me the original singer (is it one of the Cockteau Twins?) is just a better vocal. Props to the band for re-creating the feel of this track but I'd stay with the original for this one. Always enjoy your reactions and opinions though Adam, cheers.
Thanks! And yes the original is performed by Massive Attack with vocals and lyrics from Elizabeth Fraser
@@AdamStraughan fun factoid; my Unfinished Sympathy 12" is by "Massive" as they briefly changed their name due to the Gulf War 🙃
have you done Lucky ?
Not yet!
@@AdamStraughan It was part of the Nidarosdomen concert, but I at least wouldn't mind watching you react to a different version 👍
Yes! Love this version of the song, and House MD too!
You should try Aurora's version of Into the Unknown, it's amazing. Link: czcams.com/video/6xA7b3DcNZo/video.html
She’s great. But I just honestly prefer the original, both for the voice and the overall arrangement.
Wer da nicht heult vor gänsehaut, hat kein Herz...
I don't know this reminds me Shadow of the Colossus
You have still many Aurora´s songs to explore so i will not recomment you some different artists ;)
Please react to the Verftet festival!
OMG TOUCHING HAUNTING HAD TO LISTEN AGAIN
MASSIVE ATTACK COVER I HEARD IT AND LIKE YOU PROBABLY I WAS TOTALLY SUPRISED.. I'M A MASSIVE ATTACK FAN, BEEN FOR A BUNCH OF YEARS NOW, BANKSIE IS A FREAKIN GENIUS,,,,,AND THEN AGAIN......AURORA IS AURORA GREAT PICK NOW YOU HAVE TO DO ACROSS THE UNIVERSE THE BEATLES COVER CMON!
