I See your hooked , I'm 55 I wanted all my life for a band or artist that can reach inside my soul . Aurora makes you think , feel and more then every her music makes care about the earth and humanity
This young artist put a lasso around my heart 7 years ago and since then I’ve had the pleasure of seeing her live 3 times in concert,all I can say is at my tender age of 68 I’ve seen scores of artists live in concerts and of course most were amazing but honestly Aurora was at a different level no one has ever moved my emotions like her, her vocals were of the charts and simply Breathtaking seriously I have run out of superlatives for me she the best singer songwriter to have come out of Europe in a very long time,so enjoy your journey with Aurora you will not regret it simply put she’s a Genius ❤️
Aurora killed the Mensa test. She is a genius. Music is her power and you need to hear her live work of her own. She is so great and you will hear this again and again.
@@alan-reacts65 Just got lucky really lol. i usually liaten to Epica and such heheh oh, big tip for all sorts of intros, Post Modern Jukebox. they have loads of guest singers, really phenomenal unknown ones. enjoy 👍
I can't stress enough how much you should watch her perform her song 'through the eyes of a child' live at Nidarosdomen...the entire concert as well is magic but that particular song will show you how talented and how amazing her vocals are. Another is 'the seed'. I discovered her 2 year ago...wish it'd been sooner but I'm still amazed to this day how her own songs can just blast right into your soul and connect on a very real and deep level. She's a global treasure and I think the most sincere and 'real' singer, songwriter and performer on the planet right now.
I can’t stress enough just how much pleasure I get from informed comments 😊👍 I have written the songs down and screen shot your comments 👍 if you have a little patience and come back to check , you will see 1 if not both of your recommendations 😎👍
@@alan-reacts65 You can watch this, if you want (it's only 1'13", from her channel): AURORA - Frozen 2 - "INTO THE UNKNOWN" (Behind The Scenes Recording): ruclips.net/video/6_8BW-5VOHs/видео.html Only the vocals without words (the voice of the northwind) are from Aurora, otherwise it's "Into the unknown" sung by Irina Menzel.
@@alan-reacts65By the way, Aurora made her own version of Into The Unknown, much better than Disney's one, imho. ruclips.net/video/6xA7b3DcNZo/видео.htmlsi=AU_teN2e85SwfmS-
Here's how this works.....they invite you to the broadcast and they give you another artist's song and then give you like one hour to com up with a cover and Teardrop becomes a Work of Art Aurora somehow makes the song hers just look what she accomplieshed she's thge Best of the best be welcome to her Queendom nad be one of her Warriors and Weirdos I'm 72 musician painter proud granpa of two beautiful girls basically a RocknRoll person with classic piano training since age 4 and Aurora caught me since day one back in 2016
And her covers of "Believer"(Imagine Dragons), "Nature Boy" (Nat KIng Cole), "Like a Wrecking Ball" (Miley Cyrus), "La La La" (Naughty Boy), "Rasputin" (Boney M), "Make You Feel My Love" (Bob Dylan), "God is a Women" (Arianda Grande), "Golden" (Harry Styles),"Famous Blue Raincoat" and "The Partisan" (Leonard Cohen), "You're the Voice" (John Farnham). And of course, all the songs she wrote herself!
@@kyfeman the next video ( very very soon ) that I’ve chosen and is being edited at the minute , is , “ Soul without a King “ ☺️ I chose it because it’s her song ( co written ) and I just like the title ☺️ , I hope you come back to see my thoughts and share yours 😎👍
@@corrob thank you for joining , but I would ask politely if you could take a look at the channel , maybe thiers other videos / artists you can enjoy ☺️

@@alan-reacts65 The song has already 3 versions (Official album, Brian Eno remix and Vevo live) All of them are fabulous, cannot choose the favourite one of them :)
Yes.more aurora.she does a good cover of David Bowie life on mars.and across the universe from the beetles.and her original stuff is amazing especially live
I’ve seen the Bowie cover and the Beatles 😊 I’ve gone with “ Soul of a king “ I liked it’s a co written original and most of all the title really intrigued me 😊👍
@@lillm6874 thank you for your kind words , I really was so taken by her vocal range and presence, I’ve made a list of the next 3 , 2,are covers one is original 😊👍 hope you come back to check them out 😊👍
Nice reatcion Alan. Aurora is my all time favorite artist (she is 28 now), she writes the most thought provoking dark subject matter songs that she shines a light on in the darkness, she is untouchable in her songwriting, IMO. She is a self taught multi talented artist who is performance art when you watch her live. The pure clarity in her voice is balm for the heart and soul. The only lessons she ever had were approximately 10 years of dance, she is a great dancer too, she taught herself how to play the piano when she found one in the attic at home at the age of 6. Anyway, she has been writing songs from a very young age and has a large discography for you to explore. I would suggest a live Vevo performance of A Soul With No King from her recent album dropped last June. Looking forward to more Aurora on your channel, hope to see you soon.
I’m intrigued and curious about her evolution and how she chooses songs how she slivers them , and that’s all I need from any artist I encounter for the first time 😊 guaranteed to be more , I’ve already selected 3 , one of which you have mentioned 😊👍
@@alan-reacts65 Thank you for this reaction! Maybe at some point you should watch the short documentary Nothing Is Eternal, it is IIRC on Aurora's channel. Also, her interviews are informative and fun!
@@WeightlessBallast I have to say openly the support kindness and respect that everyone had shown Aurora and the encouragement to me , well it’s a little overwhelming 😊 and yes I will follow your advice , thank you ☺️
She is perhaps even more impressive as a lyricist, even a poet. She started writing lyrics at 9 years old, inspired by the Leonard Cohen and Bob Dylan records. Any of her songs, released or unreleased will be interesting, touching or exciting. To hear her vocal chops, listen to any of the live performances on VEVO. To see her perform for an audience, check out her performance at KEXP.
I’ve added to the list , and an fyi I’m getting “ soul without a king” edited at the moment for upload in next 4 days 😊 hope you come back and share your thoughts 💭 I really do appreciate them 👍
Hello friend. Great reaction of this cover. This little thiny being with her truly big voice is a gamechanger and total free spirit. Welcome to our beautiful world of music.
I guess I won't be able to teach you anything you don't know yet now about Aurora...😀 She's truly astonishing, especially when it comes to live performances. Her musical palette is very wide, she doesn't really care about musical genres, just doing what comes to her, so to speak. Being myself mainly metal, some of the songs of her albums are a bit far from my own taste, even if I enjoy at least most of them, as they have her beautiful stamp. But live she's just mindblowing, you had a glimpse here, and I guess that "a soul with no king" didn't disappoint you (it seems that I read comments...). She tends to vary her live renditions. From slightly, to completely (that generally in live sessions or specific concerts). In this last case it can be instrumentation, tempo, way of singing, even the genre, whatever her inspiration tells her I think). So even the several songs that are difficult to me have a live version that I love... which gives me a huge respect for this lady, and as you read a lot in this section, many feel the same in their own way. Her overall talent, and what she's really made of as a musical artist can't be grasped through only a small handful of songs. Like many others, I hope you'll enjoy travelling the various and always beautiful landscapes of her Queendom, this land of musical plenty she constantly creates, enlarges and embellishes. Thanks for this great reaction to Aurora, this singing little giant so interesting and endearing.🙂👍
I can concur with one of your insights / observations, I suspect I won’t be in tune with all of her ventures ( musically ) but I don’t have to , I’m a music fan not an acolyte 😊 but I’m genuinely curious about her so that’s all I need to see where it takes me 😎 but aside from all of that , music can be 2 things to me at the same time , fun and serious .. onwards and upwards , and thank you for yiur great comment , I love to hear made to think .. 👍
She is amazing and true artist. I just love her music :). Of course she has some great covers but first of all she wrote/(co)produce her songs (in my opinion she has a lot of variation in her music too). I hope you will check more of her music from different albums etc ;).
Great, you gotten introduced to Aurora. Now check out the variety this woman expresses her talent. KEXP Iceland concert is her best audio recorded lively performance. You already have suggestions for the VEVO live “ Soul with no King” from her newest album
She’s not just a very high-quality performer and artist, she invest her heart and soul into her live performance. Back in 2015 at the Nobel peace prizes she did a performance that demonstrates her investment into her music. Check out “Murder song 5-4-3-2-1”.
Subbed! She has range, but that is not what she are focusing on. It is all about the message and making you feel. She live her songs! Check out Through the eyes of a child from Nidarosdomen consert, it is mindblowing, the entire consert is....
Aurora is something realy rare❤ She got many realy good own songs, and got also numbers of covers❤ Other norwegian gold voices to check out is Sigrid and Angelina Jordan❤
"Teardrop" (also formatted as "Tear Drop") is a song by English trip hop group Massive Attack. Vocals are performed by Scottish singer Elizabeth Fraser, former lead singer of Cocteau Twins, who also wrote the lyrics.
I've loved this version ever since it was first recorded, and I heard it live on Triple J as it was recorded. Your analysis was insightful and fantastic. I just stumbled across your channel, and I'm keen to hear more, thanks for the content.
Thanks for the reaction! It was very interesting watching you experience this special artist for the first time. I see you have more lined up, so I'm subscribed and looking forward to you continuing your journey.
She is versatile. You will see different sides of her in her performances. Her song Lucky, concert at Nidarosdomen, Nidaros cathedral. Murder song 54321, the Nobel peace prize concert 2015. No Cure for me, original video. A portion for love, VEVO studio live performance. The River, original music video. Starvation from her latest album, VEVO video and live premiere in Cologne June 5th 2024, acoustic version. Infections of a different kind (the song) from the Haik TV program. Apple tree and Running with the wolfs, original videos. Featuring Sondre Lerche, Alone in the night. Exhale inhale, VEVO live performance. Echo of my shadow.
@@alan-reacts65 oh, and Churchyard, KEXP live concert Iceland. Interview with her at the podcast Drivkraft, Driving force with English subtitles to kind of get to “know” her.
She just released her 4th album in June (and she also turned 28), and she also has 2 EPs released previously. She writes her own music and lyrics with co-writers on a few songs. She is very known for her amazing covers, many of them as challenges by radio stations with very little rehearsing, and she often changes the songs to her own style. This performance is from January 2017, and it was the first time she sang this song. They didn't say in the interview, but it would not surprise me if this was one of those "challenges" and only rehearsed briefly at the radio station. She performed the song only once more in March 2020. Here are some examples of her covers: The Beatles - Across The Universe (also on triplej), David Bowie - Life On Mars (channel NRK), Imagine Dragons - Believer, Ariana Grande - God Is A Woman, Harry Styles - Golden and many more, around 30 covers.
@@alan-reacts65 One of those radio station challenges was Boney M - Rasputin, and she wrote afterwards in the youtube comments, that they only rehearsed for ~15min.
Much of her original music can be introspectively healing, and revolutionary. Some of the best Audio recordings are with her vevo performances, of which one of the best is her performance of “The seed.” And one of her best Audio recorded live performances was done back in 2015 at the Nobel peace prize concert, particularly her performance of “Murder song 54321”.
Murder Song 5,4,3,2,1 Live at the Nobel Peace Prize........one of the best live performances ever.....(IMHO)....a song she wrote at a very young age, this performance was when she was 15 I think.
I see you say you're going to do A Soul With No King. The live Vevo performance of that, is one of the greatest live performances I've ever seen and heard. Aurora has got a big back catalogue. What I will say, is her live performances are generally best, and no 2 are the same. If I say, for a long time, the Cocteau Twins, and Elizabeth Fraser, were probably one of my all time favourites, you know I know the history of Teardrop. In some ways, Aurora is the Elizabeth Fraser of the 21st Century. They are very different, but very similar singers. Liz often sang meaningless and unintelligible lyrics. Whereas Aurora writes clear lyrics, and her diction is some of the clearest of any singer. But they both have unique, and influential singing styles. Billie Eilish, credits hearing Aurora's, Runaway, as inspiring her to start a career in music. Look it up, she says it a number of times. Elizabeth Fraser and the Cocteau Twins, were massively influential.
omg, I was just thinking this exact thing today and giggled at how I thought the first meeting would play out (Aurora being Aurora lol). I would SO enjoy hearing/seeing that collab and especially BTS video ;)
Thank you so very much 😊 please feel free to go have a look around the Chanel over 600 videos from 3 years , and I hope that you can pop in and let me and us all know “ what’s next 😊
Best of Aurora HAIK-Docu, best thing to ever watch: ruclips.net/video/n_uW-0HDWoc/видео.html Nobel price: ruclips.net/video/Fc7XWW_Ehb8/видео.html Nidarosdomen :ruclips.net/video/XXVwFvkNTEg/видео.html Go the rabbit hole for covers and collabs Live On Rhythm: ruclips.net/video/yX8bYwl9rKc/видео.html Helvegen: ruclips.net/video/cg0TQyjdHJ0/видео.html .. :)
The key to Aurora is "different". All her songs are different and every performance a reinterpretation, often radical. Stick to her live performances as she sings in the moment. Try a recent one of hers, the Vevo performance of "Soul with no King".
@@jonathanwetherell3609 I’m going to point this ! Because if you look through my replies , the latest song that’s being edited for me right now is “Soul with no King” I was asked why I choose it ? My honest answer “ it’s new and I just liked the title ! So I hope you come back to see what I experienced 😊👍

Subbed! She has range, but that is not what she are focusing on. It is all about the message and making you feel. She live her songs! Check out Through the eyes of a child from Nidarosdomen consert, it is mindblowing, the entire consert is....
Just having “ soul without a king “ edited for upload in next seven days 😊 hope you share your thoughts with us all ☺️
Aurora is something realy rare❤ She got many realy good own songs, and got also numbers of covers❤
Other norwegian gold voices to check out is Sigrid and Angelina Jordan❤
Thank you , as I said , I have no knowledge of Norwegian music and artists so I’m definitely going to to those artists .. coming soon 😎👍
"Teardrop" (also formatted as "Tear Drop") is a song by English trip hop group Massive Attack. Vocals are performed by Scottish singer Elizabeth Fraser, former lead singer of Cocteau Twins, who also wrote the lyrics.
I've loved this version ever since it was first recorded, and I heard it live on Triple J as it was recorded. Your analysis was insightful and fantastic. I just stumbled across your channel, and I'm keen to hear more, thanks for the content.
Thanks for the reaction! It was very interesting watching you experience this special artist for the first time. I see you have more lined up, so I'm subscribed and looking forward to you continuing your journey.

@@alan-reacts65 oh, and Churchyard, KEXP live concert Iceland.
Interview with her at the podcast Drivkraft, Driving force with English subtitles to kind of get to “know” her.
Yey! AURORA!! You've got yourself a new subscriber ❤ Greetings from Norway👋
I’m so grateful ☺️ and coming very soon as my very first premier “ Soul without a King “ 😊👍
@alan-reacts65 I'm really looking forward to it👏😃
She is covering songs a lot, even her own. This is a slow live cover of her more popish song "The River": ruclips.net/video/nyEN3MyXtrg/видео.html
Oooh thank you ☺️ I’ve saved the video 😎👍
She just released her 4th album in June (and she also turned 28), and she also has 2 EPs released previously. She writes her own music and lyrics with co-writers on a few songs.
She is very known for her amazing covers, many of them as challenges by radio stations with very little rehearsing, and she often changes the songs to her own style.
This performance is from January 2017, and it was the first time she sang this song. They didn't say in the interview, but it would not surprise me if this was one of those "challenges" and only rehearsed briefly at the radio station. She performed the song only once more in March 2020.
Here are some examples of her covers: The Beatles - Across The Universe (also on triplej), David Bowie - Life On Mars (channel NRK), Imagine Dragons - Believer, Ariana Grande - God Is A Woman, Harry Styles - Golden and many more, around 30 covers.
So her ability to get a song , adapt it to her vocal and artistic tastes then play it with real meaning and ability ! I’m going to enjoy this a lot 😊
@@alan-reacts65 One of those radio station challenges was Boney M - Rasputin, and she wrote afterwards in the youtube comments, that they only rehearsed for ~15min.
So I just finished my review of an Aurora original song , scheduled it for upload next Sunday and I will be interested to see how it’s recieved , 😊
Much of her original music can be introspectively healing, and revolutionary. Some of the best Audio recordings are with her vevo performances, of which one of the best is her performance of “The seed.” And one of her best Audio recorded live performances was done back in 2015 at the Nobel peace prize concert, particularly her performance of “Murder song 54321”.

He's found the rabbit hole, will he fall down it?
Tomorrow 14:00 GMT .. I think this next video might answer that question 😊👍
Murder Song 5,4,3,2,1 Live at the Nobel Peace Prize........one of the best live performances ever.....(IMHO)....a song she wrote at a very young age, this performance was when she was 15 I think.
please listen to her cover of "Across The Universe", it's one of a kind~
I see you say you're going to do A Soul With No King. The live Vevo performance of that, is one of the greatest live performances I've ever seen and heard. Aurora has got a big back catalogue. What I will say, is her live performances are generally best, and no 2 are the same. If I say, for a long time, the Cocteau Twins, and Elizabeth Fraser, were probably one of my all time favourites, you know I know the history of Teardrop. In some ways, Aurora is the Elizabeth Fraser of the 21st Century. They are very different, but very similar singers. Liz often sang meaningless and unintelligible lyrics. Whereas Aurora writes clear lyrics, and her diction is some of the clearest of any singer. But they both have unique, and influential singing styles. Billie Eilish, credits hearing Aurora's, Runaway, as inspiring her to start a career in music. Look it up, she says it a number of times. Elizabeth Fraser and the Cocteau Twins, were massively influential.
Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts and insights , I really do value the time and care you’ve taken 😊
👍
A collaboration with REN and Aurora would be fascinating
Oh !! That’s something the music world might just explode with 😊😎👍
omg, I was just thinking this exact thing today and giggled at how I thought the first meeting would play out (Aurora being Aurora lol). I would SO enjoy hearing/seeing that collab and especially BTS video ;)
Also, subbed
Thank you so very much 😊 please feel free to go have a look around the Chanel over 600 videos from 3 years , and I hope that you can pop in and let me and us all know “ what’s next 😊
Best of Aurora

The key to Aurora is "different". All her songs are different and every performance a reinterpretation, often radical. Stick to her live performances as she sings in the moment. Try a recent one of hers, the Vevo performance of "Soul with no King".
@@jonathanwetherell3609 I’m going to point this ! Because if you look through my replies , the latest song that’s being edited for me right now is “Soul with no King” I was asked why I choose it ? My honest answer “ it’s new and I just liked the title ! So I hope you come back to see what I experienced 😊👍
Lots of originals to choose from, but I think you should first listen to her cover of "life on mars" (at Trygdekontoret)
Coming tomorrow “ Soul without a King” hope everyone tunes in and comments 😊😎👍
