One of the best storytellers out there. A brilliant composer, writer and performing artist. Check out more, please!!

she lives her songs when she sings them. all the best singers know they're singing stories as characters or as themselves from a certain time in their lives. i'm a 48 year old, tattooed old fart and her voice never fails to break my heart.

Great reaction. Keep it up with Aurora.

Aurora was almost 20 in this video, and now she is 26 soon 27, and she has released 3 albums and 2 EPs, so there is a lot to watch and listen to. There are 5 more songs from this "Honda Stage" and they are all good, specially "I Went Too Far" it looks like she might have tears in her eyes at the end even though smiling still. I also highly recommend the a cappella version of "Through The Eyes of a Child" with incredible harmonies. The video is also called "Vevo UK LIFT".

She's a rare treasure. Great reaction

Nice reaction😊. She never planned on being an artist, and initially said no when she was offered. Started writing at a very young age to deal with things affecting her, and the emotions comes back while performing. She wrote "Runaway" when she was 11. She has a lot of great performances. "Through The Eyes Of A Child" Live at Nidarosdomen, and "Murder Song (5, 4, 3, 2, 1)" from The Nobel Peace Prize Concert are two early favorites.

"I can't take my eyes off of her." Welcome to Aurora's magical world!

Omg aurora she’s so talented ✨💅🏻

I think this immerse and mesmerizing effect with Aurora is very common. There is something unique in Aurora that she takes your attention :). For me the most magical thing are emotions, expressions. And of course she also has great voice and write great songs and lyrics too :). She is just great Artist in my opinion.

Aurora has many many more live performances that will affect you just as much as this first time reaction...that feeling does not go away each one will seem like the first time. there are so many that it is hard to pick. try any song from the concert at Nidarosdomen.

Great reaction. You discovered a unique and amazing person. An incredible talent and singer.

3:02 yep, that's ALL her live performances.

NRK made a documentary about Aurora named HAIK. It ends with a Nice concert in the forrest. Take a look if u want to learn more.

Great reaction! Her live performances are pure artistry!

Ohhh what a beautiful reaction. Love it thanks! Followed her for seven years now and love this little fairy as an artist. For me she is the most complete performer. She have so high standards and she could even be Comedian any day at the week. She is a big, big heart. You have come to a big wonderfull rabbithole. Gratulation. Aurora - A potion for love - vevo live. Yes i sub you definitely. So long you react to her. ❤❤

one of my fave song❤

Just subscribed. , Aurora doesn't sign a song, she is the song. She goes somewhere else when she sings. You'll often see here physically shake herself back from where she's been. I've seen her live, she was on my bucket list and she was superb!

Very nice reaction🤗 It’s difficult not to be captivated by this amazing storyteller 😍 She wrote this song when she was only 11 years old, and at that age she didn’t quite understand the meaning of the song, but as she grew older she knew that home meant home to her parents💕 This is one of her most important songs and one of few songs that actually are about herself😊 This is a great performance, as always with Aurora, but not my favourite with this song. Her voice is a bit hoarse, I’m not sure if she was sick or just tired💕 My favourite performance of this song is at the Nobel peace prize concert 2016😍 Aurora (Aurora Aksnes) is a Norwegian singer/songwriter/dancer and music producer born on the 15 of June 1996. She started writing music without lyrics at the age of 6 when she found an old electric piano in the attic, and when she was 9 years old she added lyrics (English). Her family didn’t know about her talent until she was about 14 years old, and she’s self taught when it comes to singing and playing piano👍 Could you please react to: “Through the eyes of a child” live at Nidarosdomen (cathedral in Norway) 2017 This is also an important song for her😍 Fun fact: The whole song was played in the Netflix series “The 100”, so if you’ve watched that you may have heard the song😊 Every song from the concert at Nidarosdomen is amazing, very good quality as it always is with NRK

Awesome reaction! Aurora - Best storytelling artist ever! Check out It Happened Quiet live at the Current, The Seed the video, Rasputin Boney M cover... Enjoy the artistry & the music & vocals!

Love her music, but it's who she is that really gets to me in. The stage presence, the emotions and all what she stands for on and off stage. A warrior of love❤

It so difficult to deny how special Aurora is. I’ve rarely seen a performer who sings with her entire self. Her physical body is integrated so deeply with her being. She’s an alien fairy. I adore her.

Thank you! Really glad you liked it :) Aurora is really incredible. Keep going with her please.

Hola JP.....so welcome to the Queendom......and Aurora is, for me, such an amazing storyteller! Absolutely the Best of the best, so I'll be looking forward for more Aurora....I only watch Aurora reactions and maybe some other fav artist.....staying away from the cultural dumping MusicBiz pumps us with and what the new god Algorythm does, making us believe we really like what they're stuffing us with. So Sweet Miss Prada, pleased to meet you. And this is Aurora live, as matter of fact, last week in Argentina kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fM6DjNGkyr3ZYH0.html There's a lil 5min fuck up in The River, but it then resumes beautifully....yup......mis hermanos Argentinos did a freaking great job and she is so insanely cute

Aurora makes you feel. Welcome to the Aurora rabbit hole. You have discovered a truely magical place. I hop your journey here is long and beautifully strange. I saw her perform live a couple of weeks ago. It was as brilliant as you imagine. Aurora puts her soul into every performance and takes her audiences for a wild ride.

Great reaction. My opinion is she is the best, absolute best, all round artist. No one can compete with her song writing, she is a musical genius and genuine. Enjoy the journey, see you on the next Aurora video. Also, it is necessary to keep your eyes on her during her live performances, I understand why some reactors close their eyes to listen to the music, but when you do that you miss the artistry that is Aurora

If you loved that one, you will become a superfan of hers because she is that good always, and express herself in that manner always ❤️ You must see 2 performances on a live concert in a Cathedral in Norway called Nidarosdomen. And the songs are Through the eyes of a Child and Lucky ❤️ Happy journey 👍

Many of her performances, especially the emotionally intense ones, show on her face. She performs in the song, often you see her come back into our world as the song ends. Some, especially the more up beat, you see her emotionally "in" the audience, bouncing off them. When ready watch the masterpiece that is the Nidarosdomen Concert.

Very nice reaction. Hope you will continue to discover her music.

Her tune, Murder Song, is a complete epic harrowing moment in a persons life. The nobel prize performance is beautiful and gut wrenching. Pack tissues

Perfect reaction to my favorite artist - Aurora is the real deal. She writes wonderful music, is a great performer and she does some amazing covers.

Hi Jez and thank you for this fine reaction. AURORA wrote the song when she was 11 years old. It was recorded in 2014 when she was about 18 years old. She became famous with this song. Yes you are right. AURORA is a storyteller. AURORA (Aurora Aksnes) was born on June 15, 1996 in Stavanger, Norway. She is a singer, songwriter and producer with a style all her own. AURORA's songs always have a strong message. Often the messages are not very clear either. They can be interpreted so that many people can relate them to themselves. Her movements when singing are extraordinary. This isn't a dance. This is her special way of expression. You can also say that she sings with her whole body. Her excellent music, her brilliant voice and her movements. AURORA's live performances are a total work of art. She is often so into the song that she shakes her body or head uncontrollably (--> Murder song, It happened quiet) and need 2-3 seconds to come back. She is capable of transporting feelings because she allows a look into her soul. Her fans call themselves warriors and weirdos. AURORA once said: People tend to believe quite quickly that something is wrong with them if they're not like the people they see in front of them It's so sad that it doesn't take much for us to really doubt ourselves - Through The Eyes Of a Child (Live at Nidarosdomen) - kzfaq.info/get/bejne/pMl3bN2F39nNo3k.html - she sang in norway's biggest cathedral - phenomenal acoustics - Murder song (5,4,3,2,1) - The 2015 Nobel Peace Prize Concert - kzfaq.info/get/bejne/rM5ghrqFu928qKs.html - the saddest love song I've ever heard - It Happened Quiet (Live at The Current) - kzfaq.info/get/bejne/b7tdgZl91uDIeYE.html - it's about the rape of a woman - some say - these great harmonies - Lucky (Live at Nidarosdomen) - kzfaq.info/get/bejne/d9OEnNSDl8W6cas.html - the song is her way of suicide prevention - The Seed (Official Video - VEVO) - kzfaq.info/get/bejne/lbOTkrJ-mtWycWw.html - it's about the climat change, AURORAS “Earth Song” I usually prefer her live performances. But in some cases the VEVO video is more impressive. I hope you enjoy AURORA. Three important bits of information I found from another commenter: 1. -- In a recent interview she said "well, the last song I wrote is meant for my 7th album.” - AURORA's latest album, the fourth, was released on January 21, 2022. She's already in the planning for the 7th. 2. -- AURORA was a teen when she answered the question "are some of your songs related (on different albums)?" - it will all make sense when I have finished. - AURORA has a plan and we don't know the destination yet. But it is important to know that everything belongs together. 3. AURORA is holding back one song from every decade of her life to release those songs as the last album after her death. Which artist does that? Have a nice day and Greetings from Germany

She is the only singer I get captivated each time again and again. I have watched this performance of her so many times. And yet she captures me each and every time - and I am in awe again and again. Thank you for your wonderful reaction!

Wonderful reaction! I subscribed for more Aurora. I love everything she has ever released, and I adore her live recordings. See ya on the next one :) ⚔

Nice reaction. It's true that once she grabs you, it's kind of impossible not to follow her to the end of the song. What a stage presence at all levels. She has a lot of great live performances, and often different instrumentation/settings of the same song, depending on the venue I guess, so once you've watched a song don't hesitate to dig up other performances for yourself. You've got already several suggestions, I would add this one: AURORA - MURDER SONG (5,4,3,2,1) - The 2015 Nobel Peace Prize Concert: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/rM5ghrqFu928qKs.html

Aurora is a true fairy/angel. As a little girl in Norway she spent a lot of time in the forest with the animals day and night and has always been special. She was terrified of performing at first but wanted to share her music and was talked into it. Beautiful reaction.

Aurora really shines live, she lets the song inhabit her entire body. Amazing and beautiful! Her official videos are VERY well produced, but I prefer live. This version of "Warrior" has some very good visuals kzfaq.info/get/bejne/h6tgorNqz5-1iX0.html

It's so funny how 99% of all reactors are completely blown away by her when they see her the first time. I mean I get it. How can you possibly know what you're about to see and hear? I'm genuinely convinced that there's hardly anybody on this planet who feels different about her. How could you? How? And Jez... welcome to the world of Aurora's music. You have no idea what's ahead of you ^^ I'm not even recommending anything anymore because it's all good. But in any case: go for her live performances just for the sake of seeing her expressions....

Great to see another music student on here. Glad you discovered the amazing, Aurora. She has so many great emotional songs. My all time favorite artist. Hands down. You’d like her live version of “Runaway” At the Nobel Peace Prize concert along with the MURDER SONG that you reacted to. All her live stuff is great. Another beautiful tune she does is “Through the Eyes of a Child” at the Nidorosdomen cathedral. THAT is a great performance. Good luck on your studies🎼🤙🏾🤙🏾 much Aloha

Nice reaction to our little princess. Her live perfomence are always as good as this one, but her video are also good with a lot of imagery that bring the meaning of the song as she collab to the creation of them. I would suggest The Seed in video. And everything from Nidarosdomen concert for the perfect setting.

Please keep on reacting to Aurora!

She reminds me of an angel from heaven I got tears she a power house need more of the song QUITE is a good one

Aurora is the real deal. She is amazing. So amazing that i had to book a flight to Trondheim to se her concert there in november 2022. Looking forward to the next Aurora reaction. "Thrue the eyes of a child" from Nidarosdomen maby?

I'm so glad you liked this so much. It's a great introduction to Aurora. She has a large catalog of songs and no two are alike. But they all have that Aurora stamp which you described so well. Here are a couple of good songs to continue with your journey. All is Soft Inside - KEXP kzfaq.info/get/bejne/f7linLmUrODDf58.html Lucky - Nidarosdomen kzfaq.info/get/bejne/d9OEnNSDl8W6cas.html

As the old saying goes, "You ain't seen nothin' yet.". Wait until you see Aurora's masterpiece Nidarosdomen (Trondheim Cathedral) concert from 2017 and the pure magic of the HAIK concert from 2019 (filmed in the forest where Aurora played in her childhood). No current artist comes close to this petite powerhouse with the emotion that is channeled into songs, both her own compositions and the variety of other artists' work that she has covered.

Welcome to the rabbit hole. She is one of the most down to earth people in music today. Her live performances are her best, and many of them are the best covers I've ever heard, she transforms them and she gets lost in them as well

I suggest 'It happened quiet' from Nidaros dome in Norway by Aurora, nice reaction🇸🇪

Check her out with Wardruna, the song Helvegen

Aurora and Angelina Jordan are the two soundtracks of my life! Nough said..😊

If you liked her expressions there, I would recommend you stick with younger Aurora. She's still expressive, but in a different way, it will be nice for you to see the change over time. A very expressive, early, intimate performance is AURORA - Running With The Wolves | Pandora Sessions: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/a9mbddWQnpzIgJc.html

Hi there Have a listen to Lucy Thomas ,she has a beautiful voice and can sing anything her latest release is "The greatest love of all" Her cover of Hallelujah has had 50 million views today and is the greatest version yet she has released 4 albums to date .She will not disappoint you.😀😀

Welcome to a better world stay safe and sub from me x

The fact she was eleven when she wrote this song is incredible 👀🤯 her live version of this track at the Nobel Peace prize concert was a bit better, nonetheless i enjoy whenever she sings this and or any of her magical songs

She was 11 yrs old when she wrote this song.

Ya...you get it.

❤

Aurora and Angelina. It's in the Norwegian water.

React to her live at the current

there are some really good artists from nordic countries like aurora. i really like her early songs and especially everything stripped down because there she can show all her talent pure and unfiltered. but i have to say that i prefer susanne sundfor, who is a role model for aurora and many more women in music business. but nothing beats eivor. she is just a whole different league. falling free live at the old theater in torshavn tròdlabùndin live in norway boxes live 2012 true love truth live at sudio bloch wake me up live slor london solo sessions salt í tokuni gloomy sunday. whatever you pick, nothing but pure perfection

oh my god, you are so beautiful girl!

A godess and a avatar....

Hi

she sounds like zhavia😅

Great Reaction! Great reaction to a great performance. I always recommend checking out Daneliya Tuleshova's cover of this song. No one can be Aurora, but Daneliya's interpretation is pretty impressive- and, she was only 14 when she covered this- kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mrijeq19r9mtqqM.html She has a pretty nice mash-up of Skyfall/Toxic, that is great as well- kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gZOfjLKHubCRcmg.html
