The answer to "who's singing?" about halfway through is Silja Sol, who does incredible harmonies with Aurora. If you want to see just the two of them together, It Happened Quiet (live at the Current) is a good one to watch.
Silje was not with her this early in her career. She had a different back up singer for her first album. The red head. I can't remember her name. Silje joined her on her 2nd album only. Unfortunately. As they paired so well together.
Aurora's voice instantly makes my eyes teary. It's a weird, involuntary response...like cutting onions. It's hard to explain. Her tone is just so pure and honest. Adding in the visual of those beautiful deep eyes in a live performance and I'm gone.
Her voice just touches every part of the soul, the beauty of life, the sadness of death, the hope that there's something after and the utter joy that we get to be at all
Nidarosdomen was built in 1070 by my 30th great grandfather Saint Olov II, king of Norway. If anyone is worthy of performing there, it's our modern queen Aurora.

@@teckreactionscan I recommend you watch the sky children of the light concert. Sky children of the light is a video game that has my whole heart. And in game we had a season of aurora. It's the most beloved season by every player I've ever met. So loved in fact the demand for a second season of aurora was so high they actually did it! Which is absolutely unheard of!
Oh how I needed this 💙My granny passed away yesterday, at the blessed age of 92. She was Norwegian, too, and had a mischievous childlike sense of humour and the gentle hands of a mother (and grandmother). Discovering Aurora through your channel 🙏 Deeply, deeply grateful.
@@teckreactionsthe good thing is, the whole video is not copright sensitive. We have watched multiple reactors address the complete concert in one go. Phenomenal experiences.
In 1996, a gunman entered Dunblane Primary School in Scotland and shot dead 16 Primary 1 pupils (all 5 year old children in their very first year of school) and their teacher. A memorial stone to the victims of this horrendous act lies within Dunblane Cathedral - and when I visited the Cathedral recently and saw the memorial stone, this was the song that ran through my head. Ever since then, I think of those children when I hear this song - and Auroras final line always brings tears to my eyes - “Please, don’t leave me here”.
Aurora's vocalization in this song resonates deeply with me, as it beautifully captures the essence of a child's cry with exquisite empathy and grace. Through her performance, Aurora conveys the innocence and vulnerability inherent in such a poignant expression.
One of my hobbies is watching reactors falling in love with Aurora, haha just kidding❤ I love it when people get carried away by her songs because if you listen with your heart they are a complete journey. Thanks for reacting to Aurora ❤
Saw her live in Oslo a couple of weeks ago. Before singing this song she thanked her parents (they were there that night) for always telling her and her siblings to never lose the child within.
When I heard this for the first time I was so impressed that I took a flight to Tronheim only a few months after to se her concert there in Olavshallen. A night to remember for sure. This young Lady makes me happy when I listen to her. Her humor is outstanding and her brains working beyond very good If I may say so..😂 In July I have tickets to a festival in The South of Norway (Kristiansand) Aurora is there ,cant hardly wait. Thank you for a great reaction.
Fun facts: The massive Steinmeyer pipe organ in Nidarosdomen has almost 10.000 pipes, and weigh in at 40.000kg or over 88.000 pounds. Due to fire restrictions Nidarosdomen is only allowed a crowd of 1200. The concert sold out in minutes.
Aurora sings with her voice, her body and her soul. She draws you into the song, and when you come out again, you aren't quite the same as before. I have listened to Jonna Jinton do kulning, which is an ancient herding call. It sounds similar to the wordlss vocalizations that Aurora is using. Jinton does the traditional herding call in "Kulning - Ancient Herding Call - A farewell song to the cows" It's very beautiful.
Fantastic reaction! This entire concert is magical, from start to finish, but this is certainly one of the highlights. Vocalizations are a big part of Aurora's repertoire, and perhaps never better displayed than here. I can't think of anyone better at conveying emotions, both happy and sad, than Aurora, and I think it's because she's so authentic. It's not an act, but it's coming right from her heart. In the fantastic HAIK documentary, Aurora said that this song is very important to her. She was going through a phase, where she was only seeing the bad in the world, and she wrote this song to get it out of her system. It's still an important song to her, to this day. The backup vocals in the third verse are from her longtime backup singer/musician/friend Silja Sol. Unfortunately, she doesn't get a lot of screen time in this concert, but if you watch "It Happened Quiet" live at The Current, she reallly gets a chance to shine, and you'll see just how great they are together. It's an acoustic session, with nobody else but those two, and it's one of Aurora's most popular performances. And as far as Nordic tradition, perhaps the best example of that, at least with Aurora, is "Helvegan" from Wardruna, featuring Aurora. It's a fantastic live performance, with a very, very old school, traditional vibe.
During the Nidarosdomen concert, Aurora was supported by her backing vocalist, Silja Sol. Silja is a Norwegian singer-songwriter known for her indie-pop and folk-inspired music. She has also released several albums and EPs, on her own.
What is in the water in Norway? And in the Scandinavian area in general? The female singers I have heard (Aurora, Eivor, Silja and others), all have such a pure clarity to their voices…..like an ice-cold stream. Is it a lack of vibrato? Is it genetic or cultural? I don’t know. It is not a “warm” vocal sound, but rather pure and sharp……..I picture forests covered in snow and freezing mountain brooks…,and ones breath crystallizing on the cold air.
5:49 you are probably right. The vocalist Gunnhild Sundli (in the Norwegian folk grunge band Gåte) recently described those runs as something like (if I rembember correctly) 'rose painting' or 'doing embroidery' with the voice.
I've always been a little bit worried at her concerts, as I don't really feel like crying in front of other people😅. About two weeks ago I saw her live again, and she finally got to me. Some tears during this exact song 😄. Great show with her parents two rows in front of me. Already looking forward to the next one, and her album in June!
I personally discovered Aurora during the pandemic, when I did a very deep dive into music….I have sung in choirs since childhood. This was one of the first pieces I heard and I was absolutely gobsmacked. I was also brought to tears. True beauty fills the heart with so much feeling that it has to have an outlet. And that outlet is often tears. I am capture by the crystalline purity of her voice. The absence of much vibrato is reminiscent of a young boy soprano, which to me, is the purest vocal sound. You are correct: The “eh-ya” chant at the end is, to me, innately spiritual and expresses human emotion at a very deep level. Being of Northern European, Celtic descent, that kind of chanting pierces my heart. You can experience this even further in her live collaboration with the group Wadruna, which is available on RUclips. Wadruna is one of the many groups in Northern Europe and Britain who are trying to emulate and recapture the ancient music of their ancestors. I don’t know you well, but I do know you are a devout Christian. I do not know how open you are to hearing sacred music from other times and cultures.. the song/chant that Aurora does with Wadruna is a funereal piece……bidding farewell to a friend and wishing him “Godspeed” on his journey to the afterlife. It was the piece of music which introduced me to Aurora, and to me, it is very powerful and moving. It is easily found by searching for Aurora and Wadruna.
The last part of the song sounds almost like a lullaby, like a mother humming or chanting to comfort her child. Somehow that makes me very emotional every time I hear it. This and her performance of Murder Song at the Nobel Peace Prize concert are my two favorite Aurora performances so far, but there are many more out there. You are in for a treat.
When you review ”Lucky” at the same venue. And I know you will lol. That song is about the struggles one has taking their own life. Going through that journey and coming out the other side. Being amongst a crowd with no one knowing how lucky the person is that they are still alive. I’m sure you will get to It Happened Quiet, as well. the song she said was for the thousands of voices that go on unheard dealing with the struggle of S* abuse. Everyone of her songs have deep meaning. She is an unapologetic writer. Her songs are for all of those who cannot write them themselves. This was a Christmas concert. There was a small pre-interview at the beginning of this concert, where she reaches out to those who might not be in the Christmas spirit. Not everyone is filled with Christmas spirit whether it be through family loss, or because that person is alone etc., and it’s important not to forget them. Although I’m not politically aligned with AURORA as she very ‘progressive’. I believe her spirit is pure. And I love her all the same. ❤
Another artist with a similar ability to invoke emotions with her words and vocalization is the Faroese artist Eivør, especially the live version of Falling Free from Torshavn on the Faroe Islands (Thor's harbour).
@@teckreactions Oh, not just hear it, it is definately worthy of a reaction. She is VERY good. And when you have done that one you need to react to her live version of her Trodlabundin (bound by trolls) in a very special performance, that one is really close to the roots of old school singing - primal ... ruclips.net/video/wsl-KHGe4Kk/видео.htmlsi=8ULd_WDmd4Da57Ym .
Reacting to my two favourite and diverse artists, Aurora and Ren! Thank you, lovely reaction! Both communities, Warriors and Weirdos and Renegades are amazing. Now on to watch your reaction to Ren ❤
Yes you are absolutely correct when it comes to her runs and how she place her voice and play with the resonance. I'm Swedish and we have the same type of vocalisations in our folk music. Alot of...pretty much chanting you might call it? Its deeply rooted in our roots. Especially for Norweigans that haven't been plagued by social control as much as us. Or perhaps rhey were better to hide their heritage. Take care brother.
Paraphrasing her: The world looked much better and innocent when we were children. But as we grew up, the evils of society came into view. The world was much better when I could view it through the innocent eyes of a child.
This is indeed the BEST version of this song !! such a incredible performance ( the Entire Nidarusdomen show) But this is my fav song... and when she does the angelic chanting...OMG !! ❤❤❤❤❤❤ And yes Aurora's voice just has that special thing that touches my soul each and every time...
Aurora is in concert (not festival!) for real this year 2024 in germany, september 25th, Berlin, UFO!!! Great reaction Teck, so you have a foreboding what this woman is able to do with her voice to your brain!?! No fear pls, it`s just tons of love for humanity and nature from her. I just feel the same.
Yes, you could be absolutely right about the scandinavien "runs" she's doing. Especially Norway and Sweden are known for this vocal technique that is used to call and gather herds of cows. It's called "Kulning" and can be heard across great distances, ricocheting in the mountains. Jonna Jinton does some absolutely beautiful kulning.
It is interesting that “kulning” is very close to the word “keening”…..which is, as you might know, also wordless. I wonder if they have a similar root, etymologically speaking………Just thinking out loud.
Aurora breaks our hearts with this stunning song and performance, then the sweet smile at the ends says that everything will be ok. Aurora is a cut above, there is no other current artist that I am aware of who has such an impact with their performance. There is more though. Watch some of her interviews and Tik Tok posts and you will find a quirky personality, with a wicked, risque sense of humour and you will be pleasantly stunned when you hear her swear for the first time.
Not only can she tell a story, but she can touch a very sensitive place deep in the heart. This song is something that almost everyone can relate to. Becoming an adult really ruins us. We forget to appreciate the small wonders in the world. It also makes me miss my late mother. We didn't have the best relationship before she passed, and this song makes me wish we had more time to repair things. It reminds you of just how precious our time here is.
You should really treat yourself, by spending 4 minutes watching this same song again privately, but the a cappella version from March 2016 called Through The Eyes Of A Child - Stripped Vevo UK Lift, on her main channel. It is just as beautiful as this one, in my opinion, but in a different way, and she is doing amazing harmonies with her band members. Next you should watch "It Happened Quiet" Live at The Current. That song is also beautiful in Nidarosdomen, which was the very first live performance of it, but the acoustic version at The Current is something very special, almost magical. I just watched her live in Oslo ~1.5 weeks ago for the first time in 1.5 years, and during the first song my tears also just ran by themselves, because it was so beautiful. And it was the perfect song for it, her song called "The River", where she sings: "You can cry...." She wrote the song when she learned 73% of suicides is done by men, and she thinks it is because men is not "allowed" to cry in todays society.
This was a great reaction👍 I’ve watched this performance so many times I can’t even count, and it’s one of my favourite songs by her (I have a lot of favourites though lol) And even though I’ve watched this so many times, you (and Aurora) made me cry❤️ This is an important song for Aurora Fun fact: The whole song was played in the series “The 100” (in the end of episode 12, season 4) For your next reaction I recommend “It Happened Quiet” live at Current The song was inspired by domestic violence, she gets killed and in the end she comes back to haunt him See you😊
Ich habe dieses Lied schon x mal gehört und bekomme immer noch jedesmal Tränen in den Augen. Wundervoll. Ich liebe meine nordischen Nachbarn. Moin aus Schleswig-Holstein, dem einzig wahren Norden Deutschlands. I've heard this song countless times and I still get tears in my eyes every time. Wonderful. I love my Nordic neighbors. Hello from Schleswig-Holstein, the only true north of Germany.
I have seen this performance many times and cry every time. The whole concert is a master work, every song tuned to the space and arranged to use the available backing to perfection. Aurora does see the world differently to most of us and it reflects in her lyrics. This concert deserves to be listened to in one go, an emotional and uplifting experience.
Thanks a lot for an absolutely beautiful reaction, my friend 🙂 I appreciate you for checking out this one, as it is my personal favorite performance by her, closely followed by my next suggestion, ALSO from this concert. That song is called "Lucky" and I know for an absolute fact that you will absolutely love that one as well. And what's really incredible is that she wrote the major portion of the song at just age 9, only to finish it a few years later. And you're absolutely right in that she always leaves a LOT of room for interpretation. I guess that's one of the reasons why she attracts people from such a vast variety of walks of life. I have been to concerts with her, and her audience is SO incredibly diverse. - I hope you've had a wonderful Easter with your family! Until next time, stay safe and take care😊 Much love from Norway ♥♥♥♥♥
One of the best aurora experiences is "Wisdom Cries." It's very different than her other songs, very chilling and just an absolutely astonishing song. I'd 100% recommend ✨️🦈
I would not be surprised if Aurora's vocalizations weren't influenced by Swedish Kulning (cattle calling) or Sami Joik singing, because Aurora has stated that she's always felt close to indigenous cultures. Aurora's band all contribute backup vocals, but here she has a female backup singer named Silja Sol who you can briefly hear adding harmony vocals before the male choir joins in. I would recommend "Lucky" from the same concert: ruclips.net/video/AmTiqR2_VAw/видео.html, or watch the whole concert if you are willing to do a long video:ruclips.net/video/sP8nOkaX5wU/видео.html. The full concert has subtitles (not for song lyrics, just for the parts where she speak Norwegian). The full concert will be one of the most rewarding hours you can spend.
I would be very surprised if Aurora was influenced by Swedish kulning. Kauking is a Norwegian style of singing/yelling that includes a number of formalised styles like hjaling, laling, hujing and for particular usages such as sauelokk (sheep-call), geitelokk (goat-call) and KULOKK (cow-call). Of all this forms, mainly kulokk exist also in Sweden under the name "Kulning" (mainly in the former Norwegian territories). The style of kauking was probably developed (or stylized) in the Norwegian mountains as it lends itself to communication over long distance with the use of natural harmonies and inflections and was used for exactly that purpose in addition to calling for animals. So why would she be inspired by Swedish kulning, when Norway has such a much richer tradition itself?
Kulokk with Lur demonstrating the relationship to natural scales: ruclips.net/video/q2etuK1GZ9A/видео.html The legend of Prillarguri, demonstrating the long held belief that communication could be done long distance with natural scales: ruclips.net/video/geNEC9OohAI/видео.html
@@BrimirMereally interesting…….lokk must mean “call”, yes? I’m interested in languages and their development over time. Norwegian has influenced English for sure, through conquest and settlement.. “Ku” I assume is “cow”. And “geite “ is “goat? Cool.
@@w.geoffreyspaulding6588 Yes, and sau is sheep. In this context lokk typically translates to call, but in common use it means "to lure/entice". It's probably derived from a proto-germanic *lukkōną with much the same meaning, which has possible cognates in german to lûgen/locken and english lie and/or lock (as in caught/trapped/fastened).
@@teckreactionsoh yes, please! Keep in mind that it is a representation of a pre-Christian (pagan) funereal chant. I don’t know how open you are to such things……
In the beginning of the Nidarosdomen concert video (the full one), you'll hear her explain the perspective with which she went into that concert. It makes all the songs you hear that much more moving to know where her heart was at. It was Christmastime and she was singing for those who experience grief, loneliness etc, during the holidays if I remember correctly. It may be worth doing the whole concert, even if in installments.
I only watch reactions to Nightwish and Aurora, and you are doing both of them simultaneously! Both artists take you on a journey, every song a new experience and are insanely good live :)
This whole concert is a spiritual experience and this is not an exaggeration. She’s amazing, her songs are so beautiful and her voice is something special 💜
"Lucky" from the same concert is also amazing, also to see other sides of Aurora I highly (HIGHLY) recommend the official MVs of "The Seed", "No Cure for Me" and "Queendom". Happy Journey down the Warriors and Weirdos (name of the fanbase) rabbit hole!
You are quite correct that she is inspired by Scandinavian folk music. The wordless part where the choir comes in sounds a bit like the joik of the Sami people. The joik is almost always wordless, and it is both a noun and a verb. You joik someone or something when you sing. I'm not sure if this was her intention, but I can imagine her joiking the child in the second part of the song. As for the next song, I don't know her catalog all too well, but she's made a very special cover of Bowie's Life on Mars. Just her and a Fender Rhodes, magical! You should also watch some interview with her. She's very special, and has a great sense of humor!
This song breaks my heart and heals it at the same time. Aurora is an incredible songwriter and story teller. I have never been enamored by someone's music as much as I have by her's. She is one of the greatest musicians to grace us. I'm so happy I'm here to experience her music.
He Is Risen!! Her voice is so unique and captivating. You can feel every emotion. Such a beautiful singer. There is another singer who brings her emotions into everything she sings, Lara Fabian. She's a French Canadian singer who shows the passion of every word. Listen to her song J'taime. You will be in tears.
Je Suis Malade, the first time I heard it, made me gasp at the strength of emotion Lara was able to show. One of the best “diva” singers I’ve ever heard.
I'm glad you "went there", the reason I watch a lot of reactors is to get different opinions and insights on the things I love. I'm not religious, but is was awesome hearing your thoughts. I think we should all listen "thought the ears of a child" and be open to different opinions and beliefs.
Since you liked this you might also liked the "stripped down version" its just her and some back ground singers singing the same song but the sound quality or design is amazing. I like both versions for different reasons.
I love Aurora reactions, not only for her incredible talent and performances, but to witness the spread of her immense positive energy. Even more so, when a reactor is in tune with music enough to allow the emotions to flow properly through them, so that they may not only hear the true meaning of songs, but the raw connection we all share with each other, as well as the Divine. As you are a Worship Drummer, i'd love to see/hear your reaction to other Scandanavian bands like: Wardruna, Heilung, Kalandra, FAUN, and many others. For more Aurora, I definitely recommend checking out songs from her KEXP show, or even a reaction to the whole 30-40 mins of it. Additionally, her HAIK concert/documentary is an amazing treat with her performing with her band in the woods. Anyway, I have so many recommendations for you I could be here all day. Thank you for allowing us to experience this music again with/through you!
Although it is not a song which she herself wrote, Aurora’s cover of the song Teardrop, is IMO, one of the best in showcasing her incredible vocal control. It is rare for Western singers, especially those not trained, to be able to use Eastern modes, which, as you know, contain quarter-interval scales. Aurora seems to be able to do this so naturally.
Welcome to the warriors and wierdos..... You are one of us now...... One of the people that listen with their heart and soul.... This entire concert is mindblowing! But still I want to recommend something different; check out her cover of The Beatles - across the universe for like a version; ruclips.net/video/Zb4sIiGLXvc/видео.htmlsi=cM-fj0JWBAv7LIyS
Aurora has much more sad songs if you know her history. RUclips doesn't like us posting comments about some of the events like what happened in Norway in 2011 where she lost one of 3 friends in various events in her life. But the song "Little Boy in the Grass" is about that event. Also "Lucky" is related to some of those events.
The "Hey yo" at the end is like a lullaby, which is why it has a tremendous psychological effect on us humans. I've seen many reaction videos and even grown men have started to cry. Truly I say to you: Unless you repent and become like little children, you will not enter the kingdom of heaven. (Mt 19:14; Mk 10:15)
Aurora is phenomenon like Nightbird🤍 and Ren too... Her naturally shining is amazing🥹✨🤍✨. Be sure to watch more than one hour film: HAIK fully version than You will see how beautiful human she is🍀💚 Thank You for Your sensibility🥹🤍
That entire concert is fantastic. Would make great content for many videos to come. I definitely recommended you start with her early stuff like that concert. She does not personally copyright strike reactors for any of her stuff. Her and her mother both watch them frequently. With the exception of a few collaborations that other artists have some rights to.
Yes she is paying homage to traditional music from northern Norway and Sweden, the natives of our corner of the world called the samí. The singing style is called a jojk here in Sweden.
If you want to see something more upbeat but also incredible I highly recommend All Is Soft Inside live at KEXP 2018 in Iceland. It’s a powerful song with amazing vocals and a funny quirky Aurora you haven’t seen yet. She’s very cute!
I really appreciate seeing your emotional response here. There's something special about seeing my own emotional response to her songs reflected in another human's reaction, that makes me feel seen, even without being seen. So thanks for being open.
Aurora on this one reminds me so heavily of Song for the Sirens by Mortal Coil I believe. It's been a loooong time since I've heard it but it's so good.
Wonderful reaction! Thank you.👍 1) "And mothers' hands are warm and mild." I believe, it's "hands", not hearts. 2) "Let them in before they go". perhaps, as in "before they" leave the room, not die. Thank you.🙏
I may not have the same beliefs as you but that is OK. I do believe in an essence, soul, self being, call it what you will it doesn't matter. Aurora has a way of touching it and caressing it with her songs. She does EXACTLY what music is supposed to do to humans, make you feel first, then think.
lucky at the same concert, in fact there are a lot of great songs at this concert, but i think lucky is the best by far. also anything she does live, for instance a vevo clips are great or live covers at different radio stations. all great!
There are so many amazing different aurora songs to listen to and all have strong meaning for so many people but one I think you may personally enjoy is Helvegen by Wardruna and Aurora (live) because of the amazing vibe of the drums and the strong spiritual mood of the song. I believe the song is sung in old Norse and the English translations I have seen leave a lot to be desired but the song is about passing on after death and the old Norse traditions of loved ones singing songs to help you find your way to the next place. You can really feel the emotion in the song for all of those involved. I hope you get a chance to check it out.
Always thought she did have a Nordic vibe going on, her performance of "it happened quiet" at the current is excellent just her and her guitar player who harmonizes with her
The answer to "who's singing?" about halfway through is Silja Sol, who does incredible harmonies with Aurora. If you want to see just the two of them together, It Happened Quiet (live at the Current) is a good one to watch.
Will do
I second that, It happened quiet is a most fitting next step on your Aurora journey 😊

Listening to her makes my heart ache, but in the best way possible. And I cry everyday because I listen to her everyday

Nidarosdomen was built in 1070 by my 30th great grandfather Saint Olov II, king of Norway. If anyone is worthy of performing there, it's our modern queen Aurora.

Oh, I’m so sorry! Yes, Aurora’s crystalline, pure voice is indeed healing to listen to. The beauty of it fills the heart.
The entire Nidarosdomen concert is a must watch. In fact, all of her concerts are a must watch.
Will do
@@teckreactionsthe good thing is, the whole video is not copright sensitive. We have watched multiple reactors address the complete concert in one go. Phenomenal experiences.
In 1996, a gunman entered Dunblane Primary School in Scotland and shot dead 16 Primary 1 pupils (all 5 year old children in their very first year of school) and their teacher. A memorial stone to the victims of this horrendous act lies within Dunblane Cathedral - and when I visited the Cathedral recently and saw the memorial stone, this was the song that ran through my head.

Geez
Aurora's vocalization in this song resonates deeply with me, as it beautifully captures the essence of a child's cry with exquisite empathy and grace. Through her performance, Aurora conveys the innocence and vulnerability inherent in such a poignant expression.
Great point.
One of my hobbies is watching reactors falling in love with Aurora, haha just kidding❤ I love it when people get carried away by her songs because if you listen with your heart they are a complete journey. Thanks for reacting to Aurora ❤
Thanks for watching 💙
My brother, you will like every song of hers from that venue.
Looking forward to it!
Saw her live in Oslo a couple of weeks ago. Before singing this song she thanked her parents (they were there that night) for always telling her and her siblings to never lose the child within.
ngl, after watching this performance for the first time I knew exactly why this place was built, so Aurora could one day sing in it :)
Proof that composition can evoke just as much emotion as the lyrics!
True
When I heard this for the first time I was so impressed that I took a flight to Tronheim only a few months after to se her concert there in Olavshallen. A night to remember for sure. This young Lady makes me happy when I listen to her. Her humor is outstanding and her brains working beyond very good If I may say so..😂 In July I have tickets to a festival in The South of Norway (Kristiansand) Aurora is there ,cant hardly wait. Thank you for a great reaction.
Wow. That’s awesome.
Honey, I cry ever flipping time to this one, and I've probably heard it thousands of times. Lol! It's truly a soul thing. ❤️
It really is!
Fun facts: The massive Steinmeyer pipe organ in Nidarosdomen has almost 10.000 pipes, and weigh in at 40.000kg or over 88.000 pounds.
Due to fire restrictions Nidarosdomen is only allowed a crowd of 1200. The concert sold out in minutes.
Wow
Aurora sings with her voice, her body and her soul. She draws you into the song, and when you come out again, you aren't quite the same as before. I have listened to Jonna Jinton do kulning, which is an ancient herding call. It sounds similar to the wordlss vocalizations that Aurora is using. Jinton does the traditional herding call in "Kulning - Ancient Herding Call - A farewell song to the cows" It's very beautiful.
Will do
Fantastic reaction! This entire concert is magical, from start to finish, but this is certainly one of the highlights. Vocalizations are a big part of Aurora's repertoire, and perhaps never better displayed than here. I can't think of anyone better at conveying emotions, both happy and sad, than Aurora, and I think it's because she's so authentic. It's not an act, but it's coming right from her heart.
In the fantastic HAIK documentary, Aurora said that this song is very important to her. She was going through a phase, where she was only seeing the bad in the world, and she wrote this song to get it out of her system. It's still an important song to her, to this day.
The backup vocals in the third verse are from her longtime backup singer/musician/friend Silja Sol. Unfortunately, she doesn't get a lot of screen time in this concert, but if you watch "It Happened Quiet" live at The Current, she reallly gets a chance to shine, and you'll see just how great they are together. It's an acoustic session, with nobody else but those two, and it's one of Aurora's most popular performances.
And as far as Nordic tradition, perhaps the best example of that, at least with Aurora, is "Helvegan" from Wardruna, featuring Aurora. It's a fantastic live performance, with a very, very old school, traditional vibe.
I'm looking forward to it.
Yes! I LOVE that!
During the Nidarosdomen concert, Aurora was supported by her backing vocalist, Silja Sol. Silja is a Norwegian singer-songwriter known for her indie-pop and folk-inspired music. She has also released several albums and EPs, on her own.
Awesome!
What is in the water in Norway? And in the Scandinavian area in general? The female singers I have heard (Aurora, Eivor, Silja and others), all have such a pure clarity to their voices…..like an ice-cold stream. Is it a lack of vibrato? Is it genetic or cultural? I don’t know. It is not a “warm” vocal sound, but rather pure and sharp……..I picture forests covered in snow and freezing mountain brooks…,and ones breath crystallizing on the cold air.
5:49 you are probably right. The vocalist Gunnhild Sundli (in the Norwegian folk grunge band Gåte) recently described those runs as something like (if I rembember correctly) 'rose painting' or 'doing embroidery' with the voice.
Rose painting…..how lovely….
Wow
I watched this at least a year ago and every time it gets me totally. Her way to deliver is so unique and beutiful. Thx for reacting to this one.
I loved it
I've always been a little bit worried at her concerts, as I don't really feel like crying in front of other people😅. About two weeks ago I saw her live again, and she finally got to me. Some tears during this exact song 😄. Great show with her parents two rows in front of me. Already looking forward to the next one, and her album in June!
Awesome.
I personally discovered Aurora during the pandemic, when I did a very deep dive into music….I have sung in choirs since childhood. This was one of the first pieces I heard and I was absolutely gobsmacked. I was also brought to tears. True beauty fills the heart with so much feeling that it has to have an outlet. And that outlet is often tears. I am capture by the crystalline purity of her voice. The absence of much vibrato is reminiscent of a young boy soprano, which to me, is the purest vocal sound.
You are correct: The “eh-ya” chant at the end is, to me, innately spiritual and expresses human emotion at a very deep level. Being of Northern European, Celtic descent, that kind of chanting pierces my heart.
You can experience this even further in her live collaboration with the group Wadruna, which is available on RUclips. Wadruna is one of the many groups in Northern Europe and Britain who are trying to emulate and recapture the ancient music of their ancestors. I don’t know you well, but I do know you are a devout Christian. I do not know how open you are to hearing sacred music from other times and cultures..
the song/chant that Aurora does with Wadruna is a funereal piece……bidding farewell to a friend and wishing him “Godspeed” on his journey to the afterlife. It was the piece of music which introduced me to Aurora, and to me, it is very powerful and moving. It is easily found by searching for Aurora and Wadruna.
Wow. Thanks for sharing.
The last part of the song sounds almost like a lullaby, like a mother humming or chanting to comfort her child. Somehow that makes me very emotional every time I hear it.
This and her performance of Murder Song at the Nobel Peace Prize concert are my two favorite Aurora performances so far, but there are many more out there. You are in for a treat.
That's a good point.
When you review ”Lucky” at the same venue. And I know you will lol. That song is about the struggles one has taking their own life. Going through that journey and coming out the other side. Being amongst a crowd with no one knowing how lucky the person is that they are still alive.
I’m sure you will get to It Happened Quiet, as well. the song she said was for the thousands of voices that go on unheard dealing with the struggle of S* abuse.
Everyone of her songs have deep meaning. She is an unapologetic writer. Her songs are for all of those who cannot write them themselves.
This was a Christmas concert. There was a small pre-interview at the beginning of this concert, where she reaches out to those who might not be in the Christmas spirit. Not everyone is filled with Christmas spirit whether it be through family loss, or because that person is alone etc., and it’s important not to forget them.
Although I’m not politically aligned with AURORA as she very ‘progressive’. I believe her spirit is pure. And I love her all the same. ❤
Awesome
Another artist with a similar ability to invoke emotions with her words and vocalization is the Faroese artist Eivør, especially the live version of Falling Free from Torshavn on the Faroe Islands (Thor's harbour).
I’d love to hear that.
@@teckreactions Oh, not just hear it, it is definately worthy of a reaction. She is VERY good.
And when you have done that one you need to react to her live version of her Trodlabundin (bound by trolls) in a very special performance, that one is really close to the roots of old school singing - primal ...
ruclips.net/video/wsl-KHGe4Kk/видео.htmlsi=8ULd_WDmd4Da57Ym .
Reacting to my two favourite and diverse artists, Aurora and Ren! Thank you, lovely reaction! Both communities, Warriors and Weirdos and Renegades are amazing. Now on to watch your reaction to Ren ❤
Thank you too!
They're my 2 faves too 😊 Wouldn't a collab between them be incredible?
Warrior Weirdo Renegade here!😂❤
Yes you are absolutely correct when it comes to her runs and how she place her voice and play with the resonance. I'm Swedish and we have the same type of vocalisations in our folk music. Alot of...pretty much chanting you might call it? Its deeply rooted in our roots. Especially for Norweigans that haven't been plagued by social control as much as us. Or perhaps rhey were better to hide their heritage. Take care brother.
Thanks for the history.
@@teckreactions sorry for my bad english. You should go straight to "Lucky" from the same show.
Paraphrasing her: The world looked much better and innocent when we were children. But as we grew up, the evils of society came into view. The world was much better when I could view it through the innocent eyes of a child.
True
High Hopes by Pink Floyd addresses the same subject. In another genre of music, of course, but, IMO, equally well.
This is indeed the BEST version of this song !! such a incredible performance ( the Entire Nidarusdomen show) But this is my fav song... and when she does the angelic chanting...OMG !! ❤❤❤❤❤❤
And yes Aurora's voice just has that special thing that touches my soul each and every time...
Wow
'this is my favorite so far' could be said to many of her songs.
Looking forward to more.
@@teckreactions me too, me too.
It's amazing how she can say so much by saying so little
Aurora is in concert (not festival!) for real this year 2024 in germany, september 25th, Berlin, UFO!!!
Great reaction Teck, so you have a foreboding what this woman is able to do with her voice to your brain!?!
No fear pls, it`s just tons of love for humanity and nature from her. I just feel the same.
Thank you!
It Happened Quiet, at the Current. Absolutely insane harmonies.
Yes, this entire concert is fire. you are a good man. Great analysis. The "Haik" short film is a great way to see/react to Aurora, in her hometown!
I will check it out
Yes, you could be absolutely right about the scandinavien "runs" she's doing. Especially Norway and Sweden are known for this vocal technique that is used to call and gather herds of cows. It's called "Kulning" and can be heard across great distances, ricocheting in the mountains. Jonna Jinton does some absolutely beautiful kulning.
Awesome
It is interesting that “kulning” is very close to the word “keening”…..which is, as you might know, also wordless. I wonder if they have a similar root, etymologically speaking………Just thinking out loud.
If only I could hear that for the very first time again.
Aurora breaks our hearts with this stunning song and performance, then the sweet smile at the ends says that everything will be ok. Aurora is a cut above, there is no other current artist that I am aware of who has such an impact with their performance. There is more though. Watch some of her interviews and Tik Tok posts and you will find a quirky personality, with a wicked, risque sense of humour and you will be pleasantly stunned when you hear her swear for the first time.
Those acoustics! She makes the whole building sing with her.
Blink, blink Lucky in Nidarosdomen. That one is go to take you on a journey. Great reaction man
Thanks!
Not only can she tell a story, but she can touch a very sensitive place deep in the heart. This song is something that almost everyone can relate to. Becoming an adult really ruins us. We forget to appreciate the small wonders in the world. It also makes me miss my late mother. We didn't have the best relationship before she passed, and this song makes me wish we had more time to repair things. It reminds you of just how precious our time here is.
I agree. Beautiful.
You should really treat yourself, by spending 4 minutes watching this same song again privately, but the a cappella version from March 2016 called Through The Eyes Of A Child - Stripped Vevo UK Lift, on her main channel.
It is just as beautiful as this one, in my opinion, but in a different way, and she is doing amazing harmonies with her band members.
Next you should watch "It Happened Quiet" Live at The Current. That song is also beautiful in Nidarosdomen, which was the very first live performance of it, but the acoustic version at The Current is something very special, almost magical.
I just watched her live in Oslo ~1.5 weeks ago for the first time in 1.5 years, and during the first song my tears also just ran by themselves, because it was so beautiful. And it was the perfect song for it, her song called "The River", where she sings: "You can cry...."
She wrote the song when she learned 73% of suicides is done by men, and she thinks it is because men is not "allowed" to cry in todays society.
I’ll do that.
This is something I won't forget for a while...😢😢
This was a great reaction👍
I’ve watched this performance so many times I can’t even count, and it’s one of my favourite songs by her (I have a lot of favourites though lol)
And even though I’ve watched this so many times, you (and Aurora) made me cry❤️
This is an important song for Aurora
Fun fact:
The whole song was played in the series “The 100” (in the end of episode 12, season 4)
For your next reaction I recommend
“It Happened Quiet” live at Current
The song was inspired by domestic violence, she gets killed and in the end she comes back to haunt him
See you😊
Thanks!
can watch the whole concert on here, all the best songs.
Sweet
Ich habe dieses Lied schon x mal gehört und bekomme immer noch jedesmal Tränen in den Augen. Wundervoll. Ich liebe meine nordischen Nachbarn. Moin aus Schleswig-Holstein, dem einzig wahren Norden Deutschlands.
I've heard this song countless times and I still get tears in my eyes every time. Wonderful. I love my Nordic neighbors. Hello from Schleswig-Holstein, the only true north of Germany.
It is incredible the emotions she can evoke from her singing…
Shes talking right to your soul❤ not head, not even heart but The Soul❤ I can never hear this song without my soul is crying🥹
Yeah
I have seen this performance many times and cry every time. The whole concert is a master work, every song tuned to the space and arranged to use the available backing to perfection. Aurora does see the world differently to most of us and it reflects in her lyrics.
This concert deserves to be listened to in one go, an emotional and uplifting experience.
I’ll check that out.
Thanks a lot for an absolutely beautiful reaction, my friend 🙂 I appreciate you for checking out this one, as it is my personal favorite performance by her, closely followed by my next suggestion, ALSO from this concert. That song is called "Lucky" and I know for an absolute fact that you will absolutely love that one as well. And what's really incredible is that she wrote the major portion of the song at just age 9, only to finish it a few years later. And you're absolutely right in that she always leaves a LOT of room for interpretation. I guess that's one of the reasons why she attracts people from such a vast variety of walks of life. I have been to concerts with her, and her audience is SO incredibly diverse. - I hope you've had a wonderful Easter with your family! Until next time, stay safe and take care😊 Much love from Norway ♥♥♥♥♥
❤❤❤
@@Hundhammer🙂
Thanks! 💙
One of the best aurora experiences is "Wisdom Cries." It's very different than her other songs, very chilling and just an absolutely astonishing song. I'd 100% recommend ✨️🦈
The album version of this song is one of the most gorgeous recordings of all time. Check it out.
Congrats, you have now watched the most beautiful song and performance ever 💖💖💖
Pretty incredible.
I would not be surprised if Aurora's vocalizations weren't influenced by Swedish Kulning (cattle calling) or Sami Joik singing, because Aurora has stated that she's always felt close to indigenous cultures. Aurora's band all contribute backup vocals, but here she has a female backup singer named Silja Sol who you can briefly hear adding harmony vocals before the male choir joins in. I would recommend "Lucky" from the same concert: ruclips.net/video/AmTiqR2_VAw/видео.html, or watch the whole concert if you are willing to do a long video:ruclips.net/video/sP8nOkaX5wU/видео.html. The full concert has subtitles (not for song lyrics, just for the parts where she speak Norwegian). The full concert will be one of the most rewarding hours you can spend.
Interesting
I would be very surprised if Aurora was influenced by Swedish kulning. Kauking is a Norwegian style of singing/yelling that includes a number of formalised styles like hjaling, laling, hujing and for particular usages such as sauelokk (sheep-call), geitelokk (goat-call) and KULOKK (cow-call). Of all this forms, mainly kulokk exist also in Sweden under the name "Kulning" (mainly in the former Norwegian territories). The style of kauking was probably developed (or stylized) in the Norwegian mountains as it lends itself to communication over long distance with the use of natural harmonies and inflections and was used for exactly that purpose in addition to calling for animals. So why would she be inspired by Swedish kulning, when Norway has such a much richer tradition itself?
Kulokk with Lur demonstrating the relationship to natural scales: ruclips.net/video/q2etuK1GZ9A/видео.html
The legend of Prillarguri, demonstrating the long held belief that communication could be done long distance with natural scales: ruclips.net/video/geNEC9OohAI/видео.html
@@BrimirMereally interesting…….lokk must mean “call”, yes? I’m interested in languages and their development over time. Norwegian has influenced English for sure, through conquest and settlement.. “Ku” I assume is “cow”. And “geite “ is “goat? Cool.
@@w.geoffreyspaulding6588 Yes, and sau is sheep. In this context lokk typically translates to call, but in common use it means "to lure/entice". It's probably derived from a proto-germanic *lukkōną with much the same meaning, which has possible cognates in german to lûgen/locken and english lie and/or lock (as in caught/trapped/fastened).
The Aurora affect ❤love Aurora ❤
Nice
Whole concert is beautiful
I bet
you are completely right about the the scandinavian culture and the chants - which aurora did :) Good of you for noticing!
she is a forest-elf Shaman, she shows us glimpses of a better world, of our better selves.
Interesting.
Yes, I have heard her say that she is most like her true self alone in the forest. Often at night.
Give Wardruna feat. Aurora "Helvegen" a go...
Will do
@@teckreactionsoh yes, please! Keep in mind that it is a representation of a pre-Christian (pagan) funereal chant. I don’t know how open you are to such things……
In the beginning of the Nidarosdomen concert video (the full one), you'll hear her explain the perspective with which she went into that concert. It makes all the songs you hear that much more moving to know where her heart was at. It was Christmastime and she was singing for those who experience grief, loneliness etc, during the holidays if I remember correctly. It may be worth doing the whole concert, even if in installments.
I only watch reactions to Nightwish and Aurora, and you are doing both of them simultaneously! Both artists take you on a journey, every song a new experience and are insanely good live :)
Wow, thank you!
This whole concert is a spiritual experience and this is not an exaggeration. She’s amazing, her songs are so beautiful and her voice is something special 💜
Nice
"Lucky" from the same concert is also amazing, also to see other sides of Aurora I highly (HIGHLY) recommend the official MVs of "The Seed", "No Cure for Me" and "Queendom". Happy Journey down the Warriors and Weirdos (name of the fanbase) rabbit hole!
I'll check that out.
You are quite correct that she is inspired by Scandinavian folk music. The wordless part where the choir comes in sounds a bit like the joik of the Sami people. The joik is almost always wordless, and it is both a noun and a verb. You joik someone or something when you sing. I'm not sure if this was her intention, but I can imagine her joiking the child in the second part of the song.
As for the next song, I don't know her catalog all too well, but she's made a very special cover of Bowie's Life on Mars. Just her and a Fender Rhodes, magical! You should also watch some interview with her. She's very special, and has a great sense of humor!
Amazing
this song is just fantastic, it makes you feel different things, her voice is wow
I agree
It’s a visceral experience to hear this for the first time. It hurts and heals
This song breaks my heart and heals it at the same time. Aurora is an incredible songwriter and story teller. I have never been enamored by someone's music as much as I have by her's. She is one of the greatest musicians to grace us. I'm so happy I'm here to experience her music.
He Is Risen!!
Her voice is so unique and captivating. You can feel every emotion. Such a beautiful singer.
There is another singer who brings her emotions into everything she sings, Lara Fabian. She's a French Canadian singer who shows the passion of every word. Listen to her song J'taime. You will be in tears.
Looking forward to it.
Je Suis Malade, the first time I heard it, made me gasp at the strength of emotion Lara was able to show. One of the best “diva” singers I’ve ever heard.
I'm glad you "went there", the reason I watch a lot of reactors is to get different opinions and insights on the things I love. I'm not religious, but is was awesome hearing your thoughts. I think we should all listen "thought the ears of a child" and be open to different opinions and beliefs.
Thank you!
Beautiful reaction thank you brother ❤ i cry my eyes out first time hearing this song!!
I love her version of Nature boy. Her covers are captivating!
Sweet
Since you liked this you might also liked the "stripped down version" its just her and some back ground singers singing the same song but the sound quality or design is amazing. I like both versions for different reasons.
I love Aurora reactions, not only for her incredible talent and performances, but to witness the spread of her immense positive energy. Even more so, when a reactor is in tune with music enough to allow the emotions to flow properly through them, so that they may not only hear the true meaning of songs, but the raw connection we all share with each other, as well as the Divine.
As you are a Worship Drummer, i'd love to see/hear your reaction to other Scandanavian bands like: Wardruna, Heilung, Kalandra, FAUN, and many others. For more Aurora, I definitely recommend checking out songs from her KEXP show, or even a reaction to the whole 30-40 mins of it. Additionally, her HAIK concert/documentary is an amazing treat with her performing with her band in the woods. Anyway, I have so many recommendations for you I could be here all day. Thank you for allowing us to experience this music again with/through you!
Will do
Although it is not a song which she herself wrote, Aurora’s cover of the song Teardrop, is IMO, one of the best in showcasing her incredible vocal control. It is rare for Western singers, especially those not trained, to be able to use Eastern modes, which, as you know, contain quarter-interval scales. Aurora seems to be able to do this so naturally.
Will do
Welcome to the warriors and wierdos..... You are one of us now...... One of the people that listen with their heart and soul....
This entire concert is mindblowing! But still I want to recommend something different; check out her cover of The Beatles - across the universe for like a version;
ruclips.net/video/Zb4sIiGLXvc/видео.htmlsi=cM-fj0JWBAv7LIyS
Will do
The Beatles….😉
@@w.geoffreyspaulding6588 😂 Again! I write both about The Beatles and the norwegian cover band "Det Betales".... and sometimes i write the wrong one 🙂
There is an A Cappella version of this song that Aroura you does with 3 members of her band that is incredible
Aurora has much more sad songs if you know her history.
RUclips doesn't like us posting comments about some of the events like what happened in Norway in 2011 where she lost one of 3 friends in various events in her life.
But the song "Little Boy in the Grass" is about that event.
Also "Lucky" is related to some of those events.
On man. That's sad.
That particular concert is special. My favorite in that concert is the song Lucky.
loving your reaction to aurora please do more :) !!!
More to come!
The "Hey yo" at the end is like a lullaby, which is why it has a tremendous psychological effect on us humans. I've seen many reaction videos and even grown men have started to cry. Truly I say to you: Unless you repent and become like little children, you will not enter the kingdom of heaven. (Mt 19:14; Mk 10:15)
check out the documentary "Haik" form the norwegian broadcasting about aurora wich shows how special she is!
Will do
Aurora is phenomenon like Nightbird🤍 and Ren too... Her naturally shining is amazing🥹✨🤍✨. Be sure to watch more than one hour film: HAIK fully version than You will see how beautiful human she is🍀💚 Thank You for Your sensibility🥹🤍
That entire concert is fantastic. Would make great content for many videos to come. I definitely recommended you start with her early stuff like that concert. She does not personally copyright strike reactors for any of her stuff. Her and her mother both watch them frequently. With the exception of a few collaborations that other artists have some rights to.
I'll check it out!
I recommend taking a listen to the studio version also, just beautiful!
I'll check it out!
It's church for me. ❤
Yes she is paying homage to traditional music from northern Norway and Sweden, the natives of our corner of the world called the samí. The singing style is called a jojk here in Sweden.
I love it
If you want to see something more upbeat but also incredible I highly recommend All Is Soft Inside live at KEXP 2018 in Iceland. It’s a powerful song with amazing vocals and a funny quirky Aurora you haven’t seen yet. She’s very cute!
I might need to!
She will be the perfect princess Zelda in a live action movie if she make the role, i went to the paradise thanks to her
Nice reaction, thank you.
Thank you too!
I really appreciate seeing your emotional response here. There's something special about seeing my own emotional response to her songs reflected in another human's reaction, that makes me feel seen, even without being seen. So thanks for being open.
Aurora on this one reminds me so heavily of Song for the Sirens by Mortal Coil I believe. It's been a loooong time since I've heard it but it's so good.
Wonderful reaction! Thank you.👍
1) "And mothers' hands are warm and mild."
I believe, it's "hands", not hearts.
2) "Let them in before they go".
perhaps, as in "before they" leave the room, not die.
Thank you.🙏
1) Noted
2) interpretation.
I may not have the same beliefs as you but that is OK. I do believe in an essence, soul, self being, call it what you will it doesn't matter. Aurora has a way of touching it and caressing it with her songs. She does EXACTLY what music is supposed to do to humans, make you feel first, then think.
Great reaction. Im so proud of being from Norway lol. She is so good!
Thanks!
please check her live 'life on mars' cover. its insane:)
not the howard stern version ;)
Good. I won't watch Howard Stern anything.
@@teckreactions lol, same here haha
lucky at the same concert, in fact there are a lot of great songs at this concert, but i think lucky is the best by far. also anything she does live, for instance a vevo clips are great or live covers at different radio stations. all great!
Thanks for sharing!
Her voice reminds me of Delores from The Cranberries.
You got lost in it. She also got lost in it. (As did we all). It was a long time before I could hear that one without just sobbing.
😊💙
an emotional and moving tribute to innocence, sung as only Aurora could....................
There are so many amazing different aurora songs to listen to and all have strong meaning for so many people but one I think you may personally enjoy is Helvegen by Wardruna and Aurora (live) because of the amazing vibe of the drums and the strong spiritual mood of the song. I believe the song is sung in old Norse and the English translations I have seen leave a lot to be desired but the song is about passing on after death and the old Norse traditions of loved ones singing songs to help you find your way to the next place. You can really feel the emotion in the song for all of those involved. I hope you get a chance to check it out.
Thanks for the suggestion :-)
Always thought she did have a Nordic vibe going on, her performance of "it happened quiet" at the current is excellent just her and her guitar player who harmonizes with her
