One you may not have heard. Aurora was approached to write a song for the movie "The Secret Garden". She had previously written a song about a garden. Here's what she said in an interview... "I actually wrote it quite a long time ago, I was quite a little bean back then, I just always felt like this song had quite an imaginative soul. I was a very imaginative child and wrote this song after reading the book The Secret Garden for the first time. When they asked me to make a song for the movie remake, I was so happy and tried to pitch them this old song. It was so meant to be. It was always about finding this magical place in this garden, which can also symbolise shelter. The world can be quite harsh and difficult, especially nowadays. It can feel darker than it is. It's about this magical garden where you’re allowed to grow and nothing is trying to prevent you from just existing and breathing and being healthy." The song "The Secret Garden" is on KZfaq with lyrics. Here's the interview link. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/aqpkhMaY1bacgZ8.htmlsi=B8FeB9OUyD_aFmvr Thanks.

This is a funny one. Aurora's dark humor shines through here. The lovable Aurora, who can't harm a fly, mutates into a serial killer. It's funny and so abstruse. The song came about because Aurora was scared of one of her neighbors in her younger years. And since Aurora has an exuberant imagination, she imagined this woman as a man-murdering psychopath. "In bottles" describes this psychopath a little more from the inside. I put my tears in bottles in case I need them later. That's a line of text from it. Describes the abstinence of conscience and repentance. There are more important things than being worth shedding a tear for one of my victims.

I was completely thunderstruck. I've been obsessed ever since. She is absolutely amazing. I think we were all so quiet because we were all in shocck. I have been to 20 Lollas and never been so shook as this performance right here. I have seen her 5 times since and even met her in Chicago after her show at Thalia Hall. She's unreasonably awesome.

You can try find My Heart is a Storm! It’s an old song she used to perform live but it didn’t make it onto All My Demons. I don’t know if there’s even a studio version but I wish there was because it’s a really catchy song. Another one to watch is the live performance of Awakening from 2014 (in Hamar, Norway). It’s her first tv performance ever! She’s 17 and so nervous, it’s really endearing to see where she started and how much she’s grown.

I have watched the Lollapalooza Chicago concert video a few times and what struck me was that in 2016, she still wasn’t well known at all in the US. So you can see that she slowly wins over the crowd in real time and by the second have of the concert the crowd really opens up to her. I think that “In Boxes” was a bit before that halfway point, so you can see some people in the audience still a bit unsure about it all. Anyway, there are a lot of songs NOT on albums that you can explore, including those already in the comments. I’d also suggest the fantastic duet with fellow Norwegian Sondre Lerche singing “Alone In The Night”, Aurora alone at the piano performing her song “Animal Soul” at the Verftet Online Festival 2020, her singing “Somewhere Over the Rainbow”, “Small Town Boy”, and “Dance On The Moon” on the Queersounds Tik-Tok live performance, and also the beautiful video production of her cover of “Scarborough Fair” for the telenovela “Deus Salve o Rei" in 2018. One last suggestion is the whole Somewhere Else Festival 2020 which was recorded live during Covid by NRK. It is another amazing experience and unlike any other concert video. Happy hunting!

She has done a lot of songs not typically on her main albums One of her earliest performances was on live TV in Norway in 2014 I think… a song called Awakening. She was not as lively as she’s grown to be, but still the professionalism was top notch She honored a little girl who had a rare disease who dreamt of being an artist. She died very young. The song was called Sophia… a collaboration with Askjel Another collaboration with him was titled To be Loved She’s collaborated with quite a few folks Another great collaboration was with Sondre Lerche titled Alone in the Night to name a few

Puppet (a favorite of mine), which I believe is the first song she ever recorded on her own as a gift to her parents but somehow was released in Norway.

Plus she also did the soundtrack for Assassins' Creed anniversary *Hunting Shadows^, Do Not worry, there is plenty of music of hers to enjoy that will take you right up to when her new music is released that she is already hinting at!

Happy Halloween, Ashlena! So great to see you back to looking more like your normal self, and presumably feeling better. 🤟🎃 This has long been one of my favorite songs from Aurora. First, I love the cheeky, dark humor of the lyrics (which are right up my alley), but the melody and instrumentation are also cool as hell. It's different, and I love different. I would say it's outside the box, but it's literally the opposite of that. 😏 And I think it's the perfect song for Aurora Tuesday - Halloween Edition! No special plans for Halloween. I live in a rural area, where trick or treating doesn't exist, so I'll probably watch something Halloweenish. Maybe even Aurora's VevoHalloween 2016 performance!

Here is a quote from Aurora from 2016 about the woman in the song. We only got 1 more song about that woman in the song "In Bottles", even though Aurora says here that she wrote 2 more: "I've already written two new songs about the same woman from In Boxes, so you'll be hearing more about her story in the future! So anyway, she is very lonely, and she goes hunting for men who can keep her company. She cuts off the men's favorite parts, such as the hands and eyes, and puts them in boxes. It makes her happy for a while, because she has so much company, but in the end remains lonely. She doesn't really understand what she's doing, and she doesn't really understand why she feels lonely. I like having a woman as a dangerous villain, not just a creepy man. It makes it more interesting; she is a beautiful and charismatic woman who can seduce men and then... she just kills them. The woman is of course a criminal, but has not yet been arrested by the police. She is very weird and very dangerous. She doesn't do it to be mean, it's just what she... likes. She shouldn't do those things, but she does them anyway, and I have to sing about them, hah!"

Easily the best (and most fun) version in my opinion. Shocked her see she's on the "Bring Me The Horizon" album released today. Not a bad song!
