Backstory - Aurora took part in a Norwegian campaign held annually (Aksjonslåta) and performed her song Runaway in 2016 to raise money for Røde Kors (the Norwegian Red Cross). The purpose of Norwegian Red Cross is humanitarian aid, such as medical aid in war. Translation: Interviewer: Aurora... Thank you! 20-year-old Aurora from Os outside of Bergen. Rolling Stone has picked her as one of the top 10 faces to pay attention to in 2016. And Rolling Stone is rarely wrong - right, Aurora? Aurora: *laughs* No. Interviewer: A couple of minutes ago we got to see and hear your campaign song, Runaway. What is it about? Aurora: Um... It's about recognizing that the world can be demanding and difficult, and that people can also be demanding and difficult, and not having a safe place to fall when you don't have the strength to be strong. Interviewer: What do you think about when you're singing? Because I've seen you perform that song previously, and you're remarkably passionate. What are you thinking about? Aurora: Um... Lots of different stuff. Today I was thinking about people experiencing evil, before they even know the meaning of what evil is. They just notice it around themselves. Not having a place to long for has to feel strange. I thought about that today. Interviewer: You've just returned from your tour. And you're soon going to be touring again, on the 31st of October. Do you enjoy tour life? Aurora: No. Interviewer: No?! Aurora: A little. I like performing. It's very nice seeing that there's real people listening to me, but I don't really like travelling. Interviewer: Your job makes it so that you're often away from the people you love. Aurora: Yes. Interviewer: What does that do to you? Aurora: I miss them very much. But it doesn't bother me very much when I know I'll see them again. It both hurts and does me good. Interviewer: Aurora - this year, you're participating with your campaign song. Why was it important for you to partake in this year's campaign? Aurora: Oh... It's an honor to simply be here tonight. It's so nice with events like these - can you call them events? Things like these. What we're doing tonight, and all the people that have worked hard to make this happen every year - it's so nice to see that us humans can do good things too. Not just stupid things. It gives me hope for humanity. I like being a part of that. Interviewer: Aurora, thank you so much for taking the time (to talk to us)! Aurora: Thank you! Interviewer: I think it's time for us to see your campaign film!
@@Alita_N99 I agree, it almost feels like the lite version of learning a language. It's the first language I've really gotten excited about trying to learn. I have duolingo on my phone, and I use it whenever I have time at work where I seem to be doing nothing. And I work in retail, so that's pretty often. I end up spending around 45 minutes on duolingo every day when I'm at work. So it's like I'm being paid to learn Norwegian. Pretty fun haha.
@@yourmissingc0ckring759 In speaking, she uses neither, she speaks the dialect of Bergen, which is called _Bergensk_ , but with some very tiny hints that she may be from just outside Bergen rather than from inside the city itself. I am from Bergen myself, and I think most Norwegians would just detect her speech as being 100 % Bergensk, but it's more like 99.9 %. In writing, she probably uses Bokmål, but Nynorsk may have been her main written form when going to school, since the municipality where she grew up chose to have Nynorsk as its official written standard. While in Bergen, the municipality is officially neutral but in practice almost entirely Bokmål-centric. In general, in Norway dialects have a high status, and they can be quite different from both of the two written forms, Bokmål and Nynorsk. There are hundreds of dialects, and people use them in all situations, also formal situations.
I understand norwegian and it’s not awkward. He is just nervous with the questions and he is more focused on not missing them than having a conversation with her
I feel like Norwegian isn't his first language. I'm learning Norwegian now and am not by any means an expert... but he seems to speak very slow compared to fluent speakers. Am I wrong? I would actually like to know.

Came here just to hear her speaking norwegian. She sounds so beautiful and suddenly feel like an entire album in norwegian could be delightful

Thank you for this
omg bless ur soul
thank you🧡🧡🧡
Does she use Bokmål or Nynorsk?
Didn't understand anything but liked it anyway. Norwegian is just so cute, especially hers!
Ambar she is from Bergen area this is why her sounds nicer. Their dialect plus her tone makes it particularly cute
Norwegian sounds weird but in a good way
mathilda same
It is weird
That comes from a person from norway
Depends on what dialect you speak. My dialect is closer to old-Norwegian
You all, the English speakers sounds weirder. It sounds like there's a large chewing gum in the mouth 😅
its so weird
Norwegian sounds like a mixture of French and German.
I mean it is somehow related to german.
Cause she has a western dialect, which sounds slightly french.
It’s very similar to Swedish too, a Swedish person usually understands Norwegian and the other way around.
Its a germanic language.
It sounds german because norwegian is a germanic language and she has a western dialect so it sounds french
the thumbnail is funny - aurora is magic .
I swear Norwegian is so underrated
Aurora speaking Norwegian sound so magic. What a beautiful language 🥰
Aurora has dropped out of the lord of the rings set!
I want to understand norwegian.....
Pineapple Midori I started learning it and it seems relatively easy. A lot of words are very similar to English
So learn.
Al N ja det er det

her sweet bergen-dialect
I absolutely adore how aurora is pronounced in Norwegian !
It even seems more fitting to her that way !
Aww Norweigan sounds so cute
So magical, I'm in love
Love her too much
Concordo.. entendi tudo..
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
love that thumbnail
I agree with the thumbnail
Hearing her songs in English it's hard to remember her native language is Norwegian. She's so beautiful
0:52 HIS STARE 👁️👄👁️
I almost spit my drink out! Haha
wow i love this language
Me : nosebleed
The setting is kinda awkward though why are they standing?
I am from Norway
whats w the thumbnail lmao
Why Norwegian sounds so good??
if you listen hard enough norweigian sounds a bit like english words
I need to know what are they saying
Her norwegian sounds different than what i have ever heard
Because she is from Bergen, or rather just outside, but speaks the Bergen dialect, which is very distinctive (I speak it myself).
Because she is from a region of norway know as Bergen, in there the dialect sounds different

I dont understand this language and i think they speaking two languages XD
I’ts two different dialects 😊
@@henriz.l what are they?
@@DragonRazor9283 Aurora speaks Bergensk (from Bergen) and the host is speaking like someone from east side (Østlandsk)
I dont understand what she is saying but I;ove it anyway.
she looks a little bit like Jim Lyngvild
Aurora 😂😂😂😂 1:39
0:30,
he made some norwegian question
Aurora: i'll just not answer that
i think he asked if she enjoyed touring and she said no
trust me, if you could understand norwegian you would cringe at how awkward the guy is. Aurora
Nah he's fine
I understand norwegian and it’s not awkward. He is just nervous with the questions and he is more focused on not missing them than having a conversation with her

Hahaha yup
@@kevisauceda He has no foreign accent, he sounds normal to me. A bit slow, but that's just his personal style I guess.
