  • Mike & Ginger really wanted to know what Aurora covering Bony M sounded like. Her Rasputin did NOT disappoint!

    Aurora makes every cover she does her own song. I actually had never heard of that song before. I had to go listen to the original. I was very surprised. I did wonder why she didn't sing all the lyrics, but that's not unusual for her either. She does like to interpret things her own way. I really liked it. She makes even songs I don't like better. If was fun. And I always feel like I'm in an alternate universe when I'm listening to Aurora. That's just her way

    I totally get Mike here. Aurora started by highlighting the old Russian folk music vibes that Bonney M used as the skeleton for their outrageous showpiece from the 70s. But after the "ba-di-ra-di-ra" section one can see it in her eyes. She knows this is just a silly funny song as she embraces it. (My parents who discovered this thing called "charter holidays" back in the 70s - falling in love with Bonney M live shows down in Benidorm during the days when shoes and pants, shirts and jackets were outrageous compared to pretty much everything in human history)
    This is vibing so hard with Aurora's humour, which is hard for reactors to pick up on. Her songs are deep and sad, serious and often brutally beautiful. But as a person, she is truly exceptionally funny (in her Scandinavian/British understated and deadpan way).
    That smile at the end is precious - saying to me: "You did not really think I would lull this silly song into some Aurora existential seriousness, now did you? - Gotcha"
    Thanks for the giggles on this Friday M&G.

    4:02 - Magnus having a blast.
    Wonderful reaction, Aurora had _a lot_ of fun doing this and singing those lyrics (as you can clearly see. :) She mentioned that they only had 15 minutes to rehearse the cover.
    (The) P3 (studio) is where Aurora performed the God is a Woman cover, Believer, Animal Soul, and several others. Usually these kinds of covers are given to the artists shortly before the appearance as a neat little “challenge.” I think it’s been explained better under previous videos.
    Some people think Aurora is Very Serious… well… no. Not so much. Another reason the cover is such a nice “surprise”. :)
    Hope you’ll find a few minutes to get back to Susanne Sundfør (it’s been a little while), Highasakite, and maybe Sigrid (who has a new-ish song out). Cheers!

    Was a great reaction. 😁
    It's amazing how only the musical part of a song has to be changed, that it conveys a completely different mood, even though the lyrics are the same.
    Aurora did a great job again.
    Aurora has now talked more about the upcoming album, which will be more cheerful.
    But it is rather interesting that she has already talked about the following album.
    In it, she will then deal more intensively with death.
    Is one of the topics that has occupied her since her youngest years.

    And this Aurora version is lovely, kinda Folkish.....and check her princess dress, and with white sportshoes! she's so freaking cute. Well Rasputin was a hell of a character, and the Romanoffs had a very tragic and sad end, and the Zarine, she definitely was having a rotten time and they planted on her being the Weird Monk's lover like the cherry i the pie Aurora is even lighter than the real thing that is cool no need for downers chau chicos!
