I was a person who listened to EDM and Rock a lot but when I discovered Aurora, I spent almost all of my day, putting my earphones on, riding a bike doing some work while listening to her music. Her music has some thing unique, distinctive frim others. Aurora cured my depression from this dark world.

19 years old Aurora - and she, is killing it!

🤘🇫🇮 She's describet as a fairy who visits sometimes on earth - She does not only sing her songs she lives them...

Great combination, Aurora and OddMartin...and this song is so disturbing but yet so beautiful. Such a young Aurora.....and.......always so good, such an unique and talented artist.....frem her beginnigns, I guess she was born like this, so special....and we lucky ones lucky enough to share the same space-time lien with her, so concerned and sensitive, so full of Love and Magic Absolutely love her forever, the Viking Fairy Queen is the Best of the Best.

You can tell Mike is a musician in the way he chose to celebrate the guitarist and co-vocalist.

Great reaction! Next up: "Through The Eyes Of a Child". Both from Nidarosdomen and "Stripped (Vevo UK LIFT) version". 2 in 1! ;-)

Please the next one "Through the eyes of a Child" (Vevo lift UK) 😌

Forget all your mainstream artists aurora is on a different level, the song and performance that we have just watched is beyond outstanding it's one of the best live performances you will ever see.i don't think I have ever seen anyone put so much emotion into a song,this girl is special and to think this was live.wow wow wow goosebumps on top of goosebumps only one word for her Genius.

Tears Every time I hear this one.

You should check out her cover of Massive Attack’s “Teardrop”. She really shows off her vocal range in that one.

The M does indeed stand for Michael, and Mike perfectly described the reason why I just use the initial along with my middle name! So glad you enjoyed the song... Aurora's kind of a bottomless well of wonders, so you have much musical bliss ahead of you.

The entire 2019 Haik concert is amazing. You'll feel like Aurora is a dear friend afterwards.

I love Aurora, and love this song, she reminds me of a wood nymph, her voice is so pure ❤

Magical Aurora ✨🌟✨

well, one of a kind and super talented, she sings, writes lyrics, writes music, arranges, produces, plays instruments, dances, directs (for example a mv for a befriended band), maybe it would be quicker to write what she can't do. And besides her own songs, she also regularly comes up with amazing covers. Even Disney has discovered her, the high voice in the Frozen 2 score is her. Also, should you continue the journey to discover her, you'll find that she loves to come up with many variations of her own songs. For example her environmental hymn 'The Seed' exists on yt in many versions, one mv and many live, ranging from full band heavy sound to a version with the Bergen Symphonic Orchestra to a version with only her and her playing the piano, which she did for an online greenpeace event. Notable are full live concerts, such as the one at Nidarosdomen (largest northern cathedral, Trondheim), HAIK (in the forest), KEXP Iceland. Odd Martin, the guitar player you just experienced, was with her at the beginning of her career, then vanished for a while but recently returned at occasions. For example at the following show of the Norwegian Radio NRK kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ipx0gZV4vtyWp58.html where she plays 3 songs unplugged (the 3 songs can be found idividually, without innterview too).

Aurora is a beautiful soul.

2nd that nominatoin of Through the Eyes of a Child. And definitely the stripped Vevo version because it is so beautiful and emotional without instruments.

Check out some of her interviews, she is funny, thoughtful, intelligent, quirky, extremely honest and wise beyond her years. There is a great one, with subtitles, from Norwegian TV of Aurora with her older sisters Viktoria and Miranda (who do her costumes and makeup). Aurora is a special gift from the forests, mountains and fjords, more precious than any gemstone. PS Remember, for a different Aurora, check out one of the live clips of "Conqueror" either the one from Jimmy Fallon's talk show or the one from the Honda Stage. Trust me, you will love her even more.

Such a stunning version of this song, Through the eyes of a child stripped VEVO is absolutely amazing and chilling and breathtaking. Also, Aurora likes to be bare foot because it grounds her to the earth!

Greetings from Finland & thanks for this beautiful song with a sinister name.

it happened quiet live at Nidarosdomen is incredible as well, it will probably make you cry

So beautiful... we have two awesome women who regular feature on this channel... Floor who is at one end of the scale as a Valkyrie goddess and Aurora a forest elf... two absolutely legendary artists.

Great reaction guys. Odd Martin Skålnes (O.Martin) is the guy with her. He did release his debut solo album back in 2014 kzfaq.info/get/bejne/rK9hnamG0Nyrhmg.html but the last years he has mostly worked as a producer and songwriter for different Norwegian artists (fex Sigrid). He produced Auroras debut album «All my demons greeting me as a friend» and has also produced and co-written other of her songs. You can also see him on many of Aurora’s earlier performances.

Aurora has such a divine voice. That when I hear her sing my feelings collapse. it's magic 😍 ...Enjoy and love your retractions!!🙌

thx again for another great AuRoRa reaction!

Among artists and in the music industry the Norwegian singer AURORA is synonymous with quality, and she can fill a record with masterpieces time and time again. Many others are glad they manage one. Billie Eilish said in an interview that it was AURORA that made her become an artist and we were inspired to listen to her.

If you continue reacting to Aurora, you are in for quite the journey 😊 Love your reactions!

Check out The Seed, Queendom and also Exists For Love. My faves, oh and Warrior. She’s incredible.

Musical perfection..

Thank you so much for that reaction. Aurora is unique, and as such...is one of my very favorites. "Through the Eyes of a Child" is a great choice for progression.

As a Mike as well, I have answered to the call many times!

🖤 thanks for this! I adore her! "Through the eyes of a child" would be a great song to react to next!

How wonderful that you came back to Aurora so quickly. Great choice, and so glad to see your sincere reaction. She has that unique ability to really creep under your skin. What about a video next? Through the Eyes of a Child ( Vevo stripped version - a capella) or the Seed (the video) would be my suggestions. Looking forward to the next one already!!! :)

Thanks for this great and genuine reaction! I'm glad I found this channel and I'm looking forward to more reactions to Aurora in the future=)

The gentleman’s name is Odd Martin and was with Aurora in the early days! Amazing performance! Watching her live is always recommended!

I know my reply is late...but every time I see this performance, the look in her eyes at times gives me a reference to someone who is in shock. Like if you've seen someone who's been traumatized and they have that look in their eyes as their brains try to process or stop processing as a survival tactic... I think it is very fitting for the subject of the song and adds a nice, subtle touch to her physical performance.

Talking of off track,my first day at work as an apprentice decorator I worked on a site with six other decorators five were called Paul !! I thought they were playing a trick on me but no ! Great reaction once again guys

You guys should definitely react to "The Seed" by Aurora. It's such a great inspiring song.

Flemish comedian Urbanus had this joke back in the days 'At the Hell's Angels they're all called Mike, except Toon who is called Harry'. Name jokes aside ... Aurora, which is both a beautiful and very meaningful name, has such amazing emotional delivery and presence, just wow. Chills were written on your faces. I felt them too. Speaking of magical creatures, when is it Anneke's turn? :^)

Please could you react to her most personal and emotional song "Through the eyes of a Child" the VEVO UK version ???! I know you'll love that live performance 🙌🏻

Aurora is one of two world class performers from Norway. The other being Angelina Jordan

Please react to "Through The Eyes Of a Child (Live at Nidarosdomen)" that performance is a coherent piece of art!

Loved your reaction! Thank you so much! 🙏

A lovely reaction to one of my first songs I heard from AURORA five years ago. Along with the first song I heard from her Runaway from the same concert, she quickly became my favorite singer and she still holds first place in my world. Your patreon chose by far the best performance in my eyes anyway. It has one of the strongest performances I have ever seen of anyone. Her whole register of fear in her eyes to the weeping tones is in master class. A song that is even more beautiful and haunted is Lucky live from Nidarosdomen kzfaq.info/get/bejne/d9OEnNSDl8W6cas.html The tension in that song is so intense and with an arrangement that is otherworthly is fantastic and it does not get worse that she wrote it when she was nine years old. Have a great evening and stay healthy

His name is Oddmartin he is her friend and was her producer and band mate around that time, he doesnt have a solo career but is a great producer and songwriter

Just beautiful

.......................................................... (No Words)

you are just scraping the aurora iceberg...so so much good things to come.

i can't believe any could sit thru the murder song 54321 with a big grin on their face

Apart from you guy's beautiful captioning of the song, there is something so much more powerful. You are both starting at this very happy and cheerful. Big smiles. This is the first video I see of you guys, but I assume it's just how you are, happy people who carry big smiles around (the best of ppl - imho). However, both sitting there with a big smile - 30 seconds into the song both your smiles completely vanished. That's the true testomony to Auroro's song and performance. (presses like and subscribe to say thx for your efforts)

Hello and thank you for the beautiful reaction. Please react to " through the eyes of a child" stripped down version, Vevo.

Håkan Andersson comment -check! Panchio Larranaga comment -check! 😀😀😀

"Life is so much better without shoes" -Aurora

I love how Mike’s silly grin fades as he realizes what the song is about.

Her rendition of David Bowie's Life on Mars has the same feeling

Hermoso!!! 😊

My recommendation next is Through the Eyes of a Child (live VEVO UK Stripped) and It Happened Quiet (live at HAIK). The whole HAIK concert is incredible. Set up as a surprise for her in a forest where she grew up as a child... Enjoying your Aurora reactions. :)

She could sing the alphabet and id have a tear in my eye by the end of it.

Vietnam Vet brought to tears

hello, I'm here again. really nice that there are further reactions to aurora. I will watch every reaction. I don't make a suggestion. give it up meanwhile. but it doesn't matter, because I like all of her songs. the deeper the message in the song, the better to find out the message. many thanks for the reaction and see you next. ;) as always, sorry for my bad English. try to work on it.

Probably ought to check into the story of the song. It's quite tragic.

Madrugada ft. Ane Brun - Lift Me - Bing video

Oh, again, so wonderful to watch how Aurora's music is resonating with you so strongly, Ginger; had to click the sub button for that :) (Not to throw any shade on you here, Mike, but Ginger wearing her feeling on her sleeve is a bit of balm for the soul :) ) I won't reiterate all my annoying suggestions from your last Aurora reaction, but I'll add my voice to those who are suggesting the VEVO Stripped version of "Through the Eyes of a Child". (Also, one I don't think I harped on last time; if you are looking to react to (or just listen to) her version of Bowie's "Life on Mars", I strongly suggest the NRK version where she plays the piano and sings on her own; rather than the "Live at Nidarosdomen" one. Not a bad word about the guy playing piano for her there, but it's just those extra few degrees more organic when she plays it herself, and gets to dictate the tempo and express herself 100% without having to 'feel' for the music - super-synchronized though they are.)

It happened quiet and winter bird, both live in Nidarosdomen, also I went too far live Honda stage

Please please react more aurora !!!

Biblical names were a plenty, like Michael, John, etc.

I hear this song and immediately think that she's singing as she's dying and her soul is leaving her body. Her husband shot her out of mercy due to something like terminal cancer. Sort of like an assisted suicide.

or the great haik concert

Through the Eyes of a Child ( Vevo stripped version - a capella) or the Seed (the video) or for a cover, Bowie's Life on Mars (this version please - kzfaq.info/get/bejne/nK51f6ijxMelmaM.html)

I might be wrong, but I heard that he with the guitar is her former music teacher!

Shakespearian...

Hahaha I was born in 80

Funny how you keep smiling through this dark song

KZfaqrs seem to think that since it's a visual platform that they don't need to have good audio. If you ever wonder why viewers check out after a couple of minutes. Check your audio levels and for noise. If we can't hear the song you're reacting too why tune in?

I am not sure if persistent smiling is the appropriate reaction to this serious song. I have seen about 30 reactions to this and nobody smiled like he is watching a holiday video of his grandchilds.

(Pity you take only paid reactions.) => [edit] NOT TRUE There is so much more beautiful Aurora around. Through The Eyes Of A Child: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/eayqeNuGs5eyaH0.html Queendom: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/q7NoitSX25uup2w.html

Another haunting and eerie song by this magnificant creature. 🤔 I don't understand how you can react to a song with such heavy content and not notice this? Or you ignored this because it is very uncomfortable maybe? Watching your bodylanguage I sincerely doubt you got the lyrics at all. How is it that English speaking people don't hear the meaning of the lyrics? I gave a thumbs down for this. I think a song reaction is a good one when all aspects of it are addressed, sorry.

Do you even realize that you are listening to a murder song? This song is about somebody being murdered, your fake smiles are not what we want to see, what I look for in reactors is authenticity, not fake smiles during a murder song, this is one thing I don't like about you two, I look for authenticity of true emotion and true feeling and how music actually affects you, if you are not touched by this song then something is wrong with you, this will be the last time I click on any of your videos, you better think about what I'm saying, because others will have the same response to your so-called reaction as I have.
