The live version from the Nobel Peace Prize concert is just as amazing. Check it out as one of your re-listens. It Happened Quiet. Through the Eyes of a Child - the Vevo live performance. God is a Woman .... the list goes on and on.... The Seed. Love this girl
Hi Nate. A real tear jerker. Aurora's voice is BEAUTIFUL , soft and powerful. She reminds me of another great artist in Björk, singers who can just sing the phonebook and we wouldn't mind. There's a great live version of this song out there. Get to enjoy that at least once. Cheers!
Aurora's music is healing. It's common for people to tear/cry when they start listening to Aurora. This song is best sung live at the Nobel Peace Prize when Aurora was 19 years old.
The song is based on a true story. Aurora wrote the song after reading the newspaper about an incident near her home country. A man killed his wife / girlfriend so she wouldn't have to suffer anymore. She was seriously ill and tortured every day. Is a sad love story. Aurora tells the story from the ghost's perspective, letting her husband know that she is not angry with him. Her live performance of this song at the Nobel Peace Prize concert is even better and more intense. At the same time her best performance of this song. Just a guitar, she and her accompaniment.
I agree with most of the people here. Aurora is a force, when she is singing live... I was happy to see her once in Hamburg... I recommend the HAIK concert and also the haik documentary...
this song is stunning... like words almost can't describe how thunderously powerful it is in its softness, literally one of the best songs I've ever heard.
She’s young, but she’s not just right out of the chute; she’s phenome, also savant, already had music in her head when at six she discovered the piano, and that she could get it out through her fingers and hear it outside her body, and at 8 she realized she could add words to her songs, and realized consciously even then that it was important to tell stories with her music. Runaway, BTW (and others you’ll hear if keep seeing her out) she wrote at age 11, and again, you need to seek out her live performance of Runaway at the Nobel Peace Prize concert (this song too) at age 19.
Thnx Nate! The same w me, don't listen to the words of a song first, but the field of(emotions of) the song before I go into mind and interprets and analyse. This is such a profound song, energetically wise, and EXACTLY, it's like a movie... one of those dramatic film noir. It's been a very carthasic and healing for me... released a whole 'nother level of bottled up emotions. AURORA said she wrote this after reading the 1990 novel Murder song by Jon Cleary. She also told it's a sad sad love song.... the song is done, and so am I, and here I go........ kinda reaction. Someone's mentioned the NPP concert live version, absolutely worth listening to, and even making another reaction to... ;)
Thank you for this reaction, Nate. Aurora never sings inconsequential songs. All of them have meaning. She is a prolific songwriter and most of her performances are of her originals. Take yourself over to three of my favourites, and you will understand what I mean: "Through the eyes of a child" - ruclips.net/video/CFzExUN1N8I/видео.html "The seed" - ruclips.net/video/sd6eA1mMkjI/видео.html "Exist for love" - ruclips.net/video/7YDkrJaiCrw/видео.html
Aurora is just one of those special artists that communicates so much through sound and visuals. I watch so many reactions to her music, but I always end up just as fascinated with her again. She is a reminder to take the path less travelled. Enjoy
I figured listening to this song a few times would man me up and I'd become de-sensitized to it... I've listened to it with way too many reactors to count and it still cuts just as hard as the first time... Today's pop artists can't even come close to scratching raw emotion like this girl can in the simplest way...
this one is simply the difficulties we face to protect the ones we love. there are many scenarios. Soft Universe, It Happened Quiet or Through the Eyes of a Child live at Nidarosdomen would be great choices for your next. thx!!
Great reaction, thank you. This song floored me also on the first listen. A lot of Aurora's original songs have done that to me. I hope you continue to explore her work, I think you will enjoy it a lot.
Really nice reaction! You need to check out the live version of this song at the Nobel Peace Prize, it’s amazing and super emotional. Aurora is almost always even better live. Suggestion for the next reaction: Lucky live at Nidarosdomen.
Aurora has such a power to move you with her lyrics and expressiveness. She is truly unique in all her being and I really think she will give you a lot. The Nidarosdomen Concert is stunning and for yourself you should watch Murder song from the 2015 Nobel Concert. In addition to her already amazing catalogue she does many really nice covers, like Bowie's Life on Mars, either from Nidarosdomen or from Trygdekontoret, where she plays the electric piano herself. Have a nice journey.
She rips you open and heals you at the same time. She's as vulnerable as finely spun glass and as strong as high carbon steel. A siren in the form of a Viking wood nymph with a surgical blade, hunting for you to let your emotions out. Resistance is futile.
I noticed that 2 of the 3 reactions you've done for Aurora have been her music videos when her real power and essence shines through in her live performances. Aurora totally embodies her music and can really only be witnessed live. Her live performance of Churchyard ruclips.net/video/nJLuG8c11Gk/видео.html is a great example of this.
Aurora has a passion for and a connection with moths, hence their appearance in this video. If you look through a range of Aurora's songs and performances, you will witness a range of performance styles and emotions and also an evolution in her persona ( from innocent child around 2015 with "Runaway", to social warrior with "Seed" and "Queendom", to more seasoned performer and purveyor of great life advice with "Daydreamer" and more recently, coy seductress with "Exist For Love"). I can't think of any other modern artist who matches her range of charismatic performance styles and who can tear your heart apart one minute ("Murder Song") then have you up and dancing the next ("Conqueror" and "Daydreamer"). She is as bright and marvelous as the northern lights for which she is named.
I highly recommend "Aurora - It Happened Quiet (Live at The Current)", and her cover: "AURORA covers Massive Attack 'Teardrop' for Like A Version". Also the 2015 Nobel Peach Prize Concert is amazing, she is so very young and innocent. You already covered the 2 songs Runaway and Murder Song, but I just recommend you see those 2 for yourself at least. The 3rd song from that Concert you could react to, it is also a cover: "AURORA - HALF THE WORLD AWAY - The 2015 Nobel Peace Prize Concert"
This is an earlier song by AURORA. She continues to develop as an incredible singer/songwriter. Please react to some of her more recent work. For an AURORA music video, I recommend her iconic environmental anthem "The Seed!" And I strongly recommend reactions to her live performances, for instance, her highly energetic KEXP performance in Iceland, where she sings "Churchyard" and "All is Soft Inside”; as well as the Nidarosdomen Concert (in a cathedral with orchestral ensemble and choir), particularly the songs "It Happened Quiet," "Through the Eyes of a Child," "Little Boy in the Grass" and "Lucky." ; or the HAIK 2019 concert she held in a forest: "Infections of a Different Kind," "The Seed," “Daydreamer” and others; and most recently, the Bergen Philharmonic concert where she sings “Soulless Creatures” live for the first time! These are just a few suggestions -- at age 24, she already has quite an impressive repertoire.
no matter which live performance you pick, she is outstanding. it happened quiet live at the current is probably my favourite. i prefer the stripped down versions to the studio versions. the less intsruments the better it is.
You've listened to one of her better songs (this one), and a couple others that are take or leave. Let me suggest 3 other ones that will absolutely blow you away because they are much like this one, deep, emotional, thought provoking, clear messages and feeding her strengths as a performer. 1) Through the Eyes of a Child (the stripped version): ruclips.net/video/CFzExUN1N8I/видео.html 2) Lucky, (from the Nidarosdomen concert): ruclips.net/video/AmTiqR2_VAw/видео.html 3) The Seed (official version): ruclips.net/video/_Mc_OM5oNA8/видео.html These are the three songs in these three particular versions will stick with you forever.
Can I recommend Through The Eyes of a Child by Aurora? Either her live Nidaorsdomen performance or the live Stripped VEVO UK version. Either way I guarantee you will not have dry eyes. And it’s simply a MUST to watch her live. Adds a whole other dimension. Really enjoyed your reaction to this song BTW. ☺️
Two songs that really moved me were the official videos of Runaway and The Seed also the Vevo version of Through the Eyes of a Child which is without musical accompaniment just her and her back up singer.
I had the same thoughts as you when I heard this song . For me It felt like a whole movie about mercy killing condensed into a three-and-a-half minute song, still having the same powerful emotional effect.
Aurora is one of my favourites. Laura Marling is another that I would love to see you react to. Night after Night, Blow by Blow & Goodbye England (covered in snow) are some personal favourites. You’re a very calming presence also, I must say!
I will add my recommendation to listen to and watch her live versions if possible going forward. If just her music vids move you this much then seeing her live will absolutely blow you away.....
Yes we are also spechless now and then we hear her. It´s normal!!! Love this song this is not my favourite performance but it is OK! I like her Live more. It is the Emotion i wanted.
Yep you more than got the essence of emotional depth. So many other reactions on here are either partially or totally void of any emotional understanding. I'm not to surprised of course, there's just so much narcissism in people today. But you Sir, are not one of them it seems. 😊
Gm my friend, as aways your reflections are so on point and I totally agree, just wanted to remind you to check your channel, I sent a suggestion I really think you should look at.....you won't regret it PEACE
Thanks! I'm pretty slow with suggestions, and with videos in general. But I also lost all my emails with suggestions in them, so feel free to repost that one. 👳🏻♂️
@@nateLCSW HOLA NATE, IM IN A HURRY THIS WAS MY SUGGESTION DUNNO BOUT COPYRIGHTS WITH KATIE, SHE'S KINDA NOT EASY BUT YOU WANT TO LISTEN ruclips.net/video/0bre1qFaIMo/видео.html
Nate, I know what you mean about this song hitting you hard, it did that to me too. Though I will say that her live performances of this song are even more powerful. I particularly like the one she did at Nobel peace price in 2015. ruclips.net/video/vh0SWTVwXxw/видео.html well worth a listen.
I disagree. This is for me the most powerful version of this song. Her alone, all black and white and her expression in this version is overpowering the Nobel Peace Price by a mile. Thats my opinion. And i think the number of wievs on those two performences also might tell you what the majority of the wievers prefer.
Your thought reminds me of a woman I once knew, as a friend - no attraction there at all. Then one day, after getting to know her, I was suddenly bowled over by how attractive she was. Once I really got her soul... But then, sometimes that doesn't happen! Either way, thanks for the comment!
The live version from the Nobel Peace Prize concert is just as amazing. Check it out as one of your re-listens. It Happened Quiet. Through the Eyes of a Child - the Vevo live performance. God is a Woman .... the list goes on and on.... The Seed. Love this girl

You should listen to this song at Nidasosdomen with full orchestra
She’s young, but she’s not just right out of the chute; she’s phenome, also savant, already had music in her head when at six she discovered the piano, and that she could get it out through her fingers and hear it outside her body, and at 8 she realized she could add words to her songs, and realized consciously even then that it was important to tell stories with her music.

I personally think that the live acoustic for The Seed is more moving ruclips.net/video/y6eJzVJ0bUY/видео.html !

Great reaction to Aurora’s performance. Be careful or you will fall under her spell. Haha. Scary that one of her moths flew off her hand.
I want her MassiveAttack."Teardrop" cover to be played at my funeral!

My fav cover by Aurora is Leonard Cohen's "Famous blue raincoat".
She does Cohen's The Partisan too. Eerie and awesome. Some cellphone audio recording of what I assume is a live performance.
@@jjmail1971 I know the story behind that tune, pure ,Just like a norwegian resistance EU. She's not into that discussion personally, though.

Maybe do "The Seed" official video by Aurora next. It's one of my favorites.
Hi Nate, Aurora loves Ane Brun, another Norwegian singer. I will recommend "the last breath". I would be nice if you did a reaction to her too.

Gee, she's SO creative! But, I can't get with her thin, high voice... Thanks for your reaction!
Her voice is very intens in this.... It is very different in other songs...
