So glad you randomly posted this!! I'm a huge HUGE Aurora fan...and early this morning I saw a notification on my phone from the Aurora subreddit talking about this band/artist who had serious Aurora vibes. But I accidentally swiped it away...and then for the life of me couldn't find the post. D: But this was definitely the artist now that I see it written out! Glad you just so happened to react to this now...good timing for me lol. Now I'm curious to hit play and see how close it actually is.... Even if it's nothing like Aurora, maybe it'll still be good? :} I also love Bjork and heard someone say the Icelandic band Mammut has deep Bjork vibes. And sure enough, the first song I heard, "The Moon Will Never Turn On Me" sounded like something straight off one of Bjork's 90s albums. It was so good.
Kalandra is one of my favorite groups. They have that "something special" that I also find in Aurora, Susanne Sundfor, Royksopp.. Here's a suggestion for another Kalandra song: Borders (ruclips.net/video/zHh4t38f9AM/видео.html)
I'm so glad you're doing more Kalandra! I was the one who requested the first one. Pretty much all of their music is like this and it's why I love them so much. Another 2 songs they have that are really good are Borders and Lullaby. Borders is probably the more well known song, but definitely one of their saddest songs. Lullaby is probably one of their gentlest songs (plus who doesn't love a 7/8 verse).
The Lyrics are extremely profound and important, so if you didn't hear them, I hope you will look them up. Kalandra is a terrific Band. Katrine is the lead singer and reminds me of Aurora. Probably why I like them so much. I love their sound and their lyrics. Oh, and your music was way too loud with your final thoughts. Couldn't hear a word you were saying. Just letting you know.
This song, although it’s technically based on the novel by Aldous Huxley.. was my escaping DV fight song. If you read/hear the lyrics with that in mind, it takes on another meaning. “It's like a web there is no escape from It's got you trapped and you long for freedom Every wish every dream was granted Never knowing what they demanded You see the wall how it's getting higher You want to fight but you're all divided It's not a world anyone can thrive in Is this the world we were meant to grow in? Somebody tell me where are we going?” “You woke a fire inside of me, fanned the flames and made it breathe.” Etc.
Oh wow.....she DOES sound like Aurora. And I like it a lot. The high crystalline voice at the beginning was very Aurora. But then around 2:30 when she got lower....it was almost even more Aurora. That even sounds like the kind of modal melody Aurora would write these days. I should dig into them more. Cuz I'm sure there's a lot to love about them besides the Aurora vibes. :)
Thanks for checking them out and for the comment. I'm going to start collecting comments like these to send to music-biz people each time they tell me that reactors hurt artist revenue.
@@tnae great idea!! The fact record companies think reaction channels hurt artists is hilarious and absurd. If I want to actually listen to the song I go to Spotify. I use reaction channels to a) discovery new stuff and b) indulge in the vicarious fun of seeing someone fall in love with an artist I love. It ONLY helps the artist. But when record companies try to block videos...it actually sends the "message" that they don't like the fans and want to punish them. It's so backwards. You'd think they'd get it by now. A channel like Lost in Vegas(I think that's their name?) or The Charismatic Voice gets like 500k people to check out a song they otherwise wouldn't know exists...and many of those people are younger and may have never even heard of the artist in question. So yeah...smart idea on your part!
Like you, I'd heard them before, but for some reason only recently did I really connect with them, and wow, what an amazing band. Katrine gives me chills like no one since Aurora. I feel like I might need to start flying the Norway flag at my Oregon home! 🇳🇴 I think this is my favorite performance of theirs, but a very close second is this performance of Slow Motion: ruclips.net/video/FjghdvL-LW0/видео.html
lol....be careful, a local Dominos Pizza place where I live in Tennessee had a Norwegian flag in one of their windows....for some reason. Maybe the manager was Norwegian? Who knows. But some (very dim reactionary) people made a big stink about it in the local paper....claiming it was the Confederate flag. Seriously. Even AFTER it was clearly pointed out to not be that...some people said it was STILL not appropriate, given that some could mistake it for the Confederate flag. And now with all the absurd accusations surrounding Aurora and her drummer in Brazil right now....I'm just *_exhausted_* with liberals. Especially because I am one. I'm very liberal, very progressive. And I'm beyond exhausted with how quick we are to accuse, attack, police, and cancel each other. All the while....those on the right....literally excuse each other for EVERYTHING, because their only goal is brute authoritarian power. And they don't even need to attack liberals....because we're doing that job FOR them. And these same purity police who attack their own......can they be bothered to do the bare minimum and vote? Nope. -__- lol sorry.....why did this become a rant? idk. Maybe it's cuz I'm so frustrated that Aurora(of all people!) is now being targeted by this same moral panic mob mentality. Anyway...I say fly that Norwegian flag! Just make sure it doesn't hang diagonally! >_
Close your eyes and sleep Ignore all the burdens that you keep Come whatever may They could never harm you anyway Stirrings in the wind Resonates a whisper from within Warnings from afar Telling you to heed the morning star Waking from the dream Witnessing the smoke that's rolling in The end is what you fear The scent of embers lingers in the air It's like a web there is no escape from It's got you trapped and you long for freedom Every wish every dream was granted Never knowing what they demanded You see the wall how it's getting higher You want to fight but you're all divided It's not a world anyone can thrive in Is this the world we were meant to grow in? Somebody tell me where are we going? A brave new world will rise If we do not act upon its lies Hold your tongues no more Learn from all the ones who came before Catch the wind and fight the storm Through the fury we're holding on Take your time but not too long Make it worth the time you own You woke a fire inside of me Fanned the flame and made it breathe You woke a fire inside of me Inside of me Inside of me

There’s just everything in this, it’s so powerful, everything from this band always is.
I love this band, their music is just SO full of life!
Was there for the livestream, but here again anyway. 😂
Love your reactions. ❤

супер.Какая талантливая

honestly the lyrical presentation remind me of Myrkur when i first herd them opening for Leprous back in January
@@Tommy-5684 Haven't heard of Myrkur.. I'll check them out!

She reminds me a lot of Maddy Prior (Steeleye Span). Hauntingly beautiful song!
The music videos for two of their songs, Borders and Waiting Game, are two of the most incredible music videos ever!!!
Norse music take you to the core, so many amazing artists and songs to discover.

Great Band and Great reaction.
The lyric's on this one is inspired by Aldous Huxsley's novel Brave new World.

“It's like a web there is no escape from
It's got you trapped and you long for freedom
Every wish every dream was granted
Never knowing what they demanded
You see the wall how it's getting higher
You want to fight but you're all divided
It's not a world anyone can thrive in
Is this the world we were meant to grow in?
Somebody tell me where are we going?”
“You woke a fire inside of me, fanned the flames and made it breathe.”

The song is inspired by the 1932 dystopian novel of same name by Aldous Huxley.
Great reaction to Kalandra. I dont know if you reacted to Kalandras Borders?Also try out Wardruna from Norway witk Gra.👍

Close your eyes and sleep
Ignore all the burdens that you keep
Come whatever may
They could never harm you anyway
Stirrings in the wind
Resonates a whisper from within
Warnings from afar
Telling you to heed the morning star
Waking from the dream
Witnessing the smoke that's rolling in
The end is what you fear
The scent of embers lingers in the air
It's like a web there is no escape from
It's got you trapped and you long for freedom
Every wish every dream was granted
Never knowing what they demanded
You see the wall how it's getting higher
You want to fight but you're all divided
It's not a world anyone can thrive in
Is this the world we were meant to grow in?
Somebody tell me where are we going?
A brave new world will rise
If we do not act upon its lies
Hold your tongues no more
Learn from all the ones who came before
Catch the wind and fight the storm
Through the fury we're holding on
Take your time but not too long
Make it worth the time you own
You woke a fire inside of me
Fanned the flame and made it breathe
You woke a fire inside of me
Inside of me
Inside of me
Ishh, até o cenário é bem parecido com um show da Aurora numa igreja, alem da musica!
Your outro music drowned out what you were saying.
why not more
after those moments
i dont understand
🙄
