I’ll cut to the chase I’ve simply run of superlatives to describe how special this artist is I’ve had the pleasure of seeing her live in concert 3 times and seriously at my age of 68 I’ve seen scores of artists in concerts and of course many were amazing but never has any of them moved me emotionally like Aurora.Aurora is a GENIUS as a singer songwriter she’s simply head and shoulders above anyone else and I’m so grateful to have her words of medicine in my life.
Great reaction. When this first came out, I asked if this was one of the best live performances ever. It is deceptively simple, but deep and profound, and Aurora poured everything she had into it.
I just was on her concert in Warsaw yesterday 24.09. It was GREAT! And this live performance is Stunning. Noe sure if it is the best but for sure one of these Masterpieces of her :). There are 3 versions of this song. Album one, this one is like striped down and changed version of album version. There is also a Remix version (with cooperation of Eno as far I know from GB) and was released before the album as a parts of Sounds Right initiative (connected with preservation of Nature). I love all versions but I think my favorite is this live :).
@@GhostlyEcheveria BTW it was also fun when we exit concert there was street artist with percussion which played Aurora songs and ppl sing together and some dance etc. It was cool too.
I get to see her live in London next week at the very acoustic Royal Albert Hall, what a perfect place for Aurora to play. A soul with no king is on the song list, it will be amazing. Such a beautiful pure soul inside and out, she should be as big as all the fake award winning money grabbing artists out there, but shes above them all. True talent💗
@jonathanwetherell3609 Damn. Only living down the motorway in LPL. Didn’t realise she was coming to Manchester this Fri. Only seated tickets left though 😢 After going to 2 seated concerts in the past, said I’d never do it again. Gotta be right up front 😭
Could be, but I also think it is related / similar to Soulless Creatures. She practically says it in the lyrics, she "I / me" in the lyrics is Mother Earth: "I know you fear me Your heart unfulfilled Like a world with no mother"
... he he .. " This is the best Aurora song I have ever. heard.... " - I wonder how many thimes I have heard that in reactions on her music - in almost every song she have made... I think the same, than I go back and hear har older songs.. and Im right back there. She is amazing and Im wayting fore her to give her lyics out as poetry - If not I have to write them down myself... By the way I saw her in the city ( bergen) the other day - in poring rain.. She was in front of me and I swear She didn get we !t, as us other with rainclothes and umbrealls 😁😅, Thanks ! nice reaction - go outside and do the schreem - thats wat Aurora want us all to do . Best from Bergen Norway
There is a third version of this song aswell. A collab remix with Brian Eno. Eno as you might know, was a member of Roxy Music and have worked with David Bowie, Talking Heads.Robert Fripp,Peter Gabriel. U2 and the list goes on and on.👍
You should react to her full HAIK CONCERT, it's one of her best performances in my opinion. All her Vevo live performances are beautiful, too and her Live from COP26 | UMA Entertainment. But also reacting to her new album would be very interesting, since her music has changed quite a lot. Hope to see more of Aurora :)
I think this is your best reaction to one of her absolute best live performances ever. Love this version of the song, the studio version, her primal scream is to much in the background for me, but it is definitely worth a listen, it has a very medieval feel to it. Thanks!
She may be a depiction of if Leonard Cohen or Bob Dylan had the voice of an angel and the appearance and grace of a Greek goddess. Brian Eno said: "Aurora is one of the most extraordinary people I've ever met. Absolutely original human being. You just think: Who designed her? She is such a one off, wonderful person" 😍
You should listen to this,I think you will like it . Aurora tribute to Mari Boine. Golle Máze. Aurora live at NOPA's (Norwegian Song Writer's Association) award show 15.10.24. Performing her take on the Sami yoik "Golle Máze" for honorary award winner, Sami artist and legend, Mari Boine sitting in the audience
she is always best in those stripped versions, it suits her. but my favourit artist is eivor. her song falling free live at the old theater in tórshavn is the best live performance of any artist i know. she is faroese, a classically trained sopran and owns a masters degree in traditional nordic vocal techniques. she is phenomenal!
I would love to see this song with Magnus playing his Cajon in a live performance. Magnus was her former band member that played the Cajon in many of her live performances. I hope the Cajon returns to her music.
Ok so you guys are so right she really did move your floor didn't she? Well the same thing kinda happens any time I listen to this version of such an awesome song and it still gives me the shakes,, and I've seen it a mill times and will keep doing the exact same for I don't know how long it's so freaking good well now you need to check these two late late gigs Italy ruclips.net/video/1snm8T3p6eU/видео.html doing her Prima Ballerina antics and you got the late late one less than a week ago in Prague ruclips.net/video/1snm8T3p6eU/видео.html And here's the cherry on the cake a new video from a recent gig well not that recent but this year anyhow, and she speaks her mind, out loud and calls for a cease fire brave girl our lil Sweet Viking Fairy Queen ruclips.net/video/Q3Cj2mSuMk0/видео.html She is so freaking good live...she's playing in my city this coming November you guess? you're right gonna be right ther front row maybe a drop of her sweat will fall on me and change my life ha ha ha no shit yo she's a Healer
The studio version has a lot more, very Celtic sounding, instuments and fiddle, but I love the acoustic version. Aurora could do a great job of covering the Sandy Denny vocals of "Battle of Evermore"! Actually, I want to hear her cover any Sandy Denny song!
Note: The mandolin player has an audio trigger board on the floor. He’s playing with his feet. That’s why it sounds like there’s a continuation of the piano, but if you listen closely when she’s not playing the piano, the notes sound slightly different not quite so percussive as a piano.
PS: I got this information about how the mandolin player is adding to the music with an audio trigger on the floor by watching other live versions of the song where you can actually see him doing it.
Correct. You see it in Some type of skin, but even better in the album release promotion gigs (London, Oslo, Cologne, Paris). In at least one of them, Aurora introduced Fredrik as playing mandola/guitar and pedals. He's sitting with his shoes off and you can see him reaching for the pedals. Fredrik is an unassuming figure, but a fantastic guitarist and musician. I wonder what his background is and what he did before Aurora hired him.
@@art_by_accident He was a guitarist for Askjell before Aurora I think. I don't know if it was just briefly or for a longer time, but he was at the live performance of To Be Loved in 2019, and this was before he was regularly with Aurora, she still had Fredrik Vogsborg back then.
@@art_by_accident thanks for checking it out. I’ve seen other reviews on this song where they believe there must be some sort of a loop for her keyboard and don’t realize it’s the mandolin player continuing the notes.
You have to hear the version featuring Nature which is different from the album version. I like this VEVO live the best, but the one featuring Nature is better than the album version ruclips.net/video/vP3M2VEl4oM/видео.html
The lady who recommended this was right to but her interpretation was wrong, there are very clear things (including her interviews if you know the tight places to look) where this is clearly about the genocide happening, particularly in Gaza rn. Thus the green color among other tells.

Gush away! She is at the height of her ability, both mesmerizing movement and vocal control. What a genius!
Great reaction. When this first came out, I asked if this was one of the best live performances ever. It is deceptively simple, but deep and profound, and Aurora poured everything she had into it.
Great song and vocals. Just cant go wrong with Aurora. And in December in NY, I get to hear it Live! 👍💃
I love your reactions to AURORA
❤️❤️❤️
Fredrick, the guitarist, is playing a mandola, a version of the mandolin. I think he has the looping controls as well.
He's good, I like Fredrick
If true art has a body, it looks like Aurora. I guess it has, and there she is. Loved your reaction! Don't miss out on the remix with Nature version.
she's so amazing!! I love her
Ah, it's so good to be "deeply moved" like that!
Aurora, our beloved ear (and eye, at the same time) charmer.🙂👍
I just was on her concert in Warsaw yesterday 24.09. It was GREAT!

I'm so curious to see her North America set list. I'll be seeing her in November and I feel like I need to mentally prepare myself. 😂
@@GhostlyEcheveria BTW it was also fun when we exit concert there was street artist with percussion which played Aurora songs and ppl sing together and some dance etc. It was cool too.
@@Geralt26 That sounds wonderful!! I'm going to the concert alone, so I'm hoping to meet some awesome Aurora fans while I'm there!
if you listen the studio version, you shouldn't miss the brian eno remix, the first release of this song. thanks for the request and the reaction.
I get to see her live in London next week at the very acoustic Royal Albert Hall, what a perfect place for Aurora to play. A soul with no king is on the song list, it will be amazing. Such a beautiful pure soul inside and out, she should be as big as all the fake award winning money grabbing artists out there, but shes above them all. True talent💗
Me, Manchester!
The venue should have a great sound. I wish they filmed the concert.
Im going too! Can't wait! It's going to be amazing
@jonathanwetherell3609 Damn. Only living down the motorway in LPL. Didn’t realise she was coming to Manchester this Fri. Only seated tickets left though 😢 After going to 2 seated concerts in the past, said I’d never do it again. Gotta be right up front 😭
True! Real artistry is not about awards and money!
For me, this song is written from the soul’s point of view.
Could be. Same difference 🙂
Could be, but I also think it is related / similar to Soulless Creatures.
She practically says it in the lyrics, she "I / me" in the lyrics is Mother Earth:
"I know you fear me
Your heart unfulfilled
Like a world with no mother"
Yes. I got ethereal and Lord Of The Rings Elvish princess.
This song would make an excellent soundtrack for a TV drama.

This is better than the studio arrangement, which I still love. Yes, that primal yell!
I would love to see this song with Magnus playing his Cajon in a live performance. Magnus was her former band member that played the Cajon in many of her live performances. I hope the Cajon returns to her music.
This version is INTENSE, the studio version is EPIC. As it usually goes with Aurora. :)

I totally agree
Just ridiculously competent. Feels like I have to go hide.
The lyrics of the song are quite dark. She remains ever fascinating to me.
😊👍
The studio version has a lot more, very Celtic sounding, instuments and fiddle, but I love the acoustic version. Aurora could do a great job of covering the Sandy Denny vocals of "Battle of Evermore"! Actually, I want to hear her cover any Sandy Denny song!
It's a very stripped back version but still hits the spot. I do wonder what it would sound like if Magnus was playing his Cajon.
