Im 62 and discovered Aurora 2 years ago. She is my favorite Artist. This is off her last album released in June. She has a variety of styles and songs. She even has a cover ob Boney M Rasputin. Which is disco.😊
Yea I’m a geezer too, 65 and I love her music too. Just discovered her about a month ago. She has such a positive attitude and message too and she’s got a wicked sense of humor.
She is amazing Artist. Actually my favorite from some time and this performance is just stunning. I will watch her live again - soon (24.09 :) ), can not wait. Thx for a reaction!
Aurora is freaking amazing! She is a siren, and it's even mentioned in another song. She's deeply connected with Mother Earth and very deep in all her music.
I've seen her floating around RUclips but never clicked, so I'm discovering a new artist through yall. She's got a beautiful voice...very ethereal like. I'm going to check out more of her stuff. Great reaction! Much love from Oregon! ❤
I will recommend you continue with the most beautiful song and performance ever (imo🙂), Aurora "Through the eyes of a child" live at Nidarosdomen, a beautiful cathedral in Norway. You will be blown away 🙂🥰
I also once clicked on her link on youtube :) It took me another half a year and some more clicks, but now she is my absolute favourite. I could live on a deserted island just with her recordings, I guess. At least for some time :)
I'd recommend starting with some of her early stuff, then moving on to her latest album. You really can't go wrong either way, but her newest album is very different from her usual style. I think her newest music is more impactful if you are familiar with her past catalog. 🫀
Aurora is a extremely gifted singer/song writer. Her live performances are always captivating. Her songs on her albums always have great drums, this was a stripped version of the album. Her performance here is very artistic in every way. As for her eyebrows, they are natural which you hardly ever see anymore, her look is very natural compared to so many other artist, she is a natural beauty, beautiful inside and out. Thanks
Aurora simply the essence of what the true art form of music should be all about, forget your mainstream media driven music that churn out all the.same lyrics and cliches that you’ve heard hundreds of times before Aurora is the real deal writing deep lyrics that make you think deeply about yourself life and the world around us.and as a live performer which is the best way to see her perform she’s incredible,only one word to describe her GENIUS ❤️
More reactors in the same room is always cool. And you took your time too, you did a proper reaction, guys. Thanks. There is a whole universe behind her eyes, I tell you. She has so many songs from that world for you to experience!
Such an enchanting voice! It's funny you mentioned Game of thrones because that's exactly what I was thinking of right from the start. She is a siren for sure and almost got you Ollie . LOL.
I definitely recommend the concert Aurora live in nidarosdomen . I've been here for a while but this performance is the best I've seen and heard from music
This is a wonderful artist. Aurora is also funny...Nice.. and very grounded and humble. I'm flying to Edingburgh to se her concert in Usher hall 5/10. Great reaction Thank you guys. Cheers from a finn in Sweden
For an older good one, "Murder Song (5,4,3,2,1) The 2015 Nobel Peace Prize Concert." For a lively one off of this current album, "Starvation." So many more, but give her a lick and a promise, you'll get into her.
Great guys! She is natural born perfomer and singer and free spirit. She is best with her own material but she is f....ng hardcore with covers to. Try massive attacks 'teardrop' .
And no it is not her biggest sound. She has a ton of amazing music. That she is my favorite artist. Of course every one has own teste but it is one of this rare artist I just can listen random songs and love all of them :). Of course she is from Norway and not mainstream (but some of her songs are close) but I love emotions and messages and you feel truth in her music and art. But i remember that on vey start of my Aurora journey it was something that was most visible: she has great voice, great poetic lyrics, great song written by herself, but the most visible was emotions - how she feels music and how I feel her music especially from first albums.
Great reaction, guys! I appreciate that you all had your own unique interpretation and reaction, and didn't cookie-cutter it. I would love to see you guys react to her "Starvation" music video. It even has drums. 😏
The string instrument was a Mandola, related to the mandolin. She played the keyboard, and used a looper to continue a few tones, and her breathes. I enjoyed your review, it affected you guys like it does most. Her newest album release is varied, and I think is her best yet. Please explore her more. Perhaps check out "Everything Matters" a collaboration with Pomme.
She actually played the keyboard. What continued to sound like a keyboard after she stopped was the via foot controller of the guitarist. She it not there to impress, she is one of those that don't give a flying f about what people think. At least seemingly. And has a large catalog of fantastic songs. And it is not her hit by far.
Aurora isn’t just a musician, she’s a whole religion. I thorougly enjoyed watching you guys.😅 People who listen to music with their heart and not their ears are in for a treat with Aurora.
Great reaction to lovely Aurora, she is something else entirely ! Just one correction, though : The studio version of this song is featured on her newly released album "What Happened to the Heart".
This version of the song is soo cool. But the studio version of it is hot! It is different arrangement - faster and has a full band sound. Add it to your playlist. Most people react to Aurora's live songs, because she is so special.
Sometimes when I look at Aurora I think of Lothlórien and Galadriel. Although the choice to give the role to Cate Blanchett was right, I could also imagine Aurora as Galadriel. She seems to me to be the perfect elf queen because of her Scandinavian aura, even without a ring she envelops you with her magic. If you really go further down the path you will see and hear very special artists, but you have already heard that in the other comments. I'm curious whether you'll continue down the path with Aurora Aksnes, musician, song writer and producer from Norway. If not, you're missing out on something good.
I'm not familiar with all of Aurora's music - I don't really "follow" musicians & artists the way most people do, tbh - but you gotta hear these 3 songs. The 1st one here is called 'The River' - that' the one I'm linking. The other 2 are called 'Warrior', and 'Queendom'.... these are my current favorites by her, but she's got WAY more then this, I'm sure, since she has been making music since she was very young, and now she's in her middle-to-late 20's. Enjoy! ruclips.net/video/P7lE-G1oC34/видео.htmlsi=uQfXu8D-2mEvmq2E
If you want to find an American (and way older) artist that you have never heard about (happening to be the wife of Lour Reed that you may have heard of) - check out Laurie Anderson (start with O Superman or Another Day in America from her HOMELAND album trying to make sense of the US ten years after 9/11). There are creators out there - now listen to Laurie Anderson spitting bars of reflection inside the US decades ago via "Only an Expert" or "The Beginning of Memory" never to pop up on top-10 lists with qualities that make us return to it decades later.
I thought so too when I first heard her. Too much pixie, too high voice, or something. Now she is my most listened artist :) I think it is simply because the person she is - deeply human, caring and intelligent (besides being great musician, singer, dancer and lyricist).
Still, good that you listened to this. She's not to everyone's taste, but give her another chance with another one of her songs. There's enough of her, maybe there's one you like. If not, good too 😉
I agree. I like to be open minded when it comes to music, but this is painful to my ears. I'm sure some love it, but I've definitely just wasted a few minutes of my life listening to it.
@@thisisitreactions great channel entertaining to watch you discover what i grew up with 70s rock etc. I wasnt giving u flack just my opinion . Keep up the good work!!
Glad you are reacting to Aurora-- I'd have never listened to her on my own.. just outside of my wheelhouse. BUT, since stumbling across her a couple years ago I truly think she's one of the top geniuses in music over the past decade or few. Check out live stuff from her-- infectious and really interesting. This song is good.. but pretty subdued and probably not the top most impactful thing to show off her talent in a way that would grab you. Olli-- same, not what I'd normally listen to and if this was the first thing I'd heard of hers I'd probably think "hey this is surprisingly good"-- but then maybe I wouldn't delve super deep after that. Go check out the live stuff. Murder song. Runaway at nobel prize concert. Live at KEXP (churchyard), etc. Video for exist for love. It is magical-- and I'm a guy that wouldn't normally use those words about any music. :-)

This is how Norse and Celtic music sounds like. Thousands of years in one scream. Thanks for the respect guys. Love from Norway.
yeah, agree, would also sound great with a Hurdy-Gurdy or nyckelharpa
He was playing a mandola which is basically larger than a standard mandolin that's tuned an octave lower than the smaller model.
Omg you have only begun the best musical journey you could ever find in my opinion ❤
This is incredible. Just 2 people, a lute and a keyboard. She has a powerful voice.
Fredrik is playing a mandola, not a flute.
That she does, though for me what really makes her shine is her songwriting. Her lyrics are top notch.
@@i_am_m3384 She said a lute. A Mandola is a lute.
Exactly what I said under her video.
@@atomicnoogie For me it is the harmonies :D No, really. The thing about Aurora is that she is exceptional on so many levels.
Aurora is the definition of a good human being , such a beautiful soul. ❤️
Im 62 and discovered Aurora 2 years ago.
She is my favorite Artist.
This is off her last album released in June.
She has a variety of styles and songs.

@@tomhorn6156 69 and I might have been the oldest at her concert in Manchester in October.
She is pure magic!
Look at who is credited in the song! The earth! Every stream money goes to environmental cases.
She is amazing Artist. Actually my favorite from some time and this performance is just stunning. I will watch her live again - soon (24.09 :) ), can not wait. Thx for a reaction!

Much love! This was an awesome discovery! Thanks for going this journey with us!
Enjoy going through the Aurora rabbit hole, she doesn't really stick to one genre so you'll get folk, art-pop, indie pop, synth pop, etc.
I will recommend you continue with the most beautiful song and performance ever (imo🙂), Aurora "Through the eyes of a child" live at Nidarosdomen, a beautiful cathedral in Norway. You will be blown away 🙂🥰

This song gave me the feels of something like Game of Thrones or something like that too! I loved it. Thank you for turning me on to Aurora!! ❤
Same vibes? Search AURORA - Scarborough Fair. Or better, Wardruna and Aurora - Helvegen (Live)
Aurora is such a beautiful soul and artist
I think it was a lute he was playing
Looks like an eight string mandolin to me.🤔
thanks for the request and your reactions.
I loved your reaction.
For an older good one, "Murder Song (5,4,3,2,1) The 2015 Nobel Peace Prize Concert." For a lively one off of this current album, "Starvation." So many more, but give her a lick and a promise, you'll get into her.
Aurora❤️❤️❤️
Great reaction. She has a song with more than 600 million views on youtube. She is defenitely worth following.
What? Really? Wow!!!
look her up guys. She is amazing, Currently on a world tour.
Celtic soul music.
Great guys! She is natural born perfomer and singer and free spirit. She is best with her own material but she is f....ng hardcore with covers to. Try massive attacks 'teardrop' .

Yep. Her showing emotions is why she is my favourite.
Great reaction, guys! I appreciate that you all had your own unique interpretation and reaction, and didn't cookie-cutter it. I would love to see you guys react to her "Starvation" music video. It even has drums. 😏
We should note, that many of her songs have even the drums. :D
@@johnytwo Including "A Soul with No King!"
This song would do nicely as a soundtrack to a TV drama.

I enjoyed your review, it affected you guys like it does most. Her newest album release is varied, and I think is her best yet. Please explore her more. Perhaps check out "Everything Matters" a collaboration with Pomme.
Check out her earlier stuff too. She's a self taught musician . She writes most of her own music.
She is speaking for Mother Earth.
This is better than I thought it would be
She actually played the keyboard. What continued to sound like a keyboard after she stopped was the via foot controller of the guitarist.
She it not there to impress, she is one of those that don't give a flying f about what people think. At least seemingly.
And has a large catalog of fantastic songs. And it is not her hit by far.
She's done a bunch of these Vevo Live videos, and all of them are fantastic. Just pick one.
Aurora isn’t just a musician, she’s a whole religion. I thorougly enjoyed watching you guys.😅 People who listen to music with their heart and not their ears are in for a treat with Aurora.
A Soul With No King is a song from her latest LP, What Happened To The Heart? - 2024, not from her debut album as the description says.
Great reaction to lovely Aurora, she is something else entirely !
Just one correction, though : The studio version of this song is featured on her newly released album "What Happened to the Heart".
Any Aurora live:
KEXP
Nidorosdom
Honda sound stage
Mobel peace prize concert
Going to see her in Chicago late November 😊
*Nidarosdomen *Nobel Peace Prize
I would add all the VEVO live videos and the Live at Lollapalooza Brazil 2023
Kind of Celtic, Eastern, and Western folk all tied into one.
This version of the song is soo cool. But the studio version of it is hot! It is different arrangement - faster and has a full band sound. Add it to your playlist. Most people react to Aurora's live songs, because she is so special.
The instrument is called " Mandolin"
I have nothing but mad respect for you guys, a little weird but her voice incredibly! 🤟😎😊
It was a mandolin. I’m glad that you dug her.
❤❤❤
she covered God is a Woman in her own way.
😊👍
Sometimes when I look at Aurora I think of Lothlórien and Galadriel. Although the choice to give the role to Cate Blanchett was right, I could also imagine Aurora as Galadriel.

Exactly! I love analogies, and I came to a conclusion, she is closest to Galadriel, only more human, or girlish.

Thank for the suggestion! She is dope!
React to her it happend quiet live performance
Has a Led Zeppelin sounding opening
She has eyebrows 😅 but they are really light
Oh man you should try the studio version. It’s got drums
This song is growomg on me, but it's not the best song to introduce you to Aurora. Her earlier songs are pure magic.
You should react to Dreams 🫶
Please do a reaction to "Lovin' You" by Minnie Riperton, preferably using the video "Minnie Riperton - Lovin' You (Official Video)." Thank you :)
What up Vaughn! We got you!
I love Aurora but this is not my favourite… I like her earlier stuff for sure. But you have to be in a particular mood for her emotive tunes.
First foray for us! It was dope and worth listening to more!
If you want to find an American (and way older) artist that you have never heard about (happening to be the wife of Lour Reed that you may have heard of) - check out Laurie Anderson (start with O Superman or Another Day in America from her HOMELAND album trying to make sense of the US ten years after 9/11).

This is a protest song, in case anyone was wondering why the green color... Well you know what's happening in Gaza
I have a request, I'm Alright by Kenny Loggins, Live from the Redwoods. It's an incredibly performance and you won't be disappointed
Ok Allman Brothers they ain’t,lol.Different strokes.
Doobie brothers song “listen to the music “. Official video- this band is funky
Guys. Please do Gordon Lightfoot. If you could read my mind reaction
He's Canadian like me.
This is not atypical Aurora song. Then again, there is no such thing, all are different and every performance different.
Not my cup of tea.
I thought so too when I first heard her. Too much pixie, too high voice, or something. Now she is my most listened artist :) I think it is simply because the person she is - deeply human, caring and intelligent (besides being great musician, singer, dancer and lyricist).

Im Pretty open minded about music , but that was 👎. It sounded like a lame version of Enya.
All opinons are welcomed! That's why we do the channel. We get flack when we are feeling a song. Much love!!
I agree. I like to be open minded when it comes to music, but this is painful to my ears.

You have horrible hearing then.
Check out her whole new album, ‘What Happened to the Heart.’ It is full of brilliant songs. Check out “The Dark Dresses Lightly.”
