In this vocal analysis, Dr Dan delves into Aurora's captivating performance of the "Murder Song (5, 4, 3, 2, 1)," highlighting the artist's exceptional storytelling through both her vocal delivery and stage presence. Dr Dan draws parallels between Aurora's sound and that of Australian artist Kate Miller-Heidke, noting the unique yet recognisable quality of Aurora's voice. The analysis praises the intricate production and engineering of the performance while also acknowledging the complementary role of the guitarist, who enhances the overall sound without overshadowing Aurora's light vocal tone.
Dr Dan encourages viewers to observe Aurora's expressive use of her eyes and her adeptness at conveying the song's emotional depth, illustrating the singer's ability to maintain audience engagement through her narrative-driven performance. This review not only appreciates Aurora's technical skill and emotional expression but also serves as an educational tool for understanding the nuances of effective vocal performance.

⚠️ As a singing voice specialist, I fully acknowledge that each live performance is a snapshot in time and does not encapsulate the entire spectrum of an artist's work, nor can it predict their future evolution. I understand that a myriad of factors, both positive and negative, can influence the delivery of a live performance. I strive to appreciate and critique each live rendition for its own merits, independent of the artist's past or potential future performances. Recognising the ebb and flow of live music, I value its spontaneity, novelty, and individuality and strive to give it the thoughtful consideration it deserves.

Guitarist is fellow Norwegian Odd Martin Skålnes who supported Aurora the first years, cowrote Murder Song and more. For more excellent story telling and harmonies I recommend "It happend quiet" live at the current. You will enjoy that.

@Tarkus_ Ай бұрын

Thanks, I really enjoyed your thoughts and analysis. I consider this one of the best performances I've ever seen (not just by Aurora). It never fails to blow me away, especially considering she was only 19 years old and by her own admission, very nervous. Obviously, the "most played" part is next level, but I also love when she sings the lines "he cries and cries," it sounds very close to her crying herself. Like, she really makes you feel those lyrics. But then, that's the beauty of this performance overall, the way she makes you feel the story, right along with her.

I'm an Aurora addict. Her songs are all different and she constantly revisits them. Yes, she tends to sing in the moment, with total emotional commitment, so her live songs are generally the best. She is highly intelligent and a thinker, so her lyrics can be intense and challenging. This is a good example. How many teenager girls would write about mercy killing and from first person point of view as well?

@slavaukraini404 Ай бұрын

I am an AURORA addict an EIVOR addict. Eivor never does the song the same either, just sIngs out of her head. I can't pick between them, however a collaboration would be godly. I don't think they are listening to my pleads though.

One guitar !, one man, one gifted singer. Aurora experiences what she sings in this moment on stage herself. She visualises the lyrics of her songs. 93% of our communication is non-verbal. It is this unconscious communication with us, her gestures, facial expressions and her eyes. That is why she is best experienced live.

Great reaction👍 This is obviously a fan favourite, I’m a fan (warrior and weirdo) and I absolutely love this song and performance😍 Every album of hers are different and I love each one, I’m 100% sure I’m gonna love her next album which will be released on the 7th of June👍😍 I’m pretty sure you’ll love the song and performance “It Happened Quiet” live at Current It was inspired by domestic violence, she gets killed and in the end she comes back to haunt him

Brilliant video. You're incredibly knowledgeable and articulate, and I love your philosophy of music and performance. Edit: If I may request a review / analysis, I'd love if you could check out the vocal performance of Sia singing "Breathe Me" live at Hiro Ballroom in 2007.

Would love to hear your analysis of her performance of It Happened Quiet-Live at the Current. This song and performance is truly another masterclass!

@hadesmcfadden2982 Ай бұрын

besides It Happened Quiet mentioned below, Little Boy in The Grass Mahogany Session is an amazing in my view, live performance of the two of these artists about a painful and tragic incident that happened in her native country in 2015. Well worth a reaction if you haven't already.

Odd Martin Skålnes is the gentleman who accompanies Aurora here. He was a member of Aurora's band at her beginning, and co-produced part of her songs in studio at that time. He's a seasoned artist, and their voices harmonize well together. He really masters what he does. Bob Dylan is one of her inspiring artist, one she used to listened to at her family home, with Leonard Cohen, among others. Her ways to perform live are outstanding to me. They evolve as the time goes, but man there's always some huge intensity, emotional as much as tchnical, if not more. There's, in my opinion, an important trait that you can't see by watching only one performance of a song: her tendency to vary or reinterpret her songs from time to time. Therefore, if you wish you should check out this other one, as exemple: (can be copy/paste here if needed) Aurora - Murder Song (5, 4, 3, 2, 1) - 5/25/2018 - Paste Studios - New York, NY There's also the one from her Nidarosdomen concert, but this concert should be discovered directly through a reaction video, to "Lucky" or to "Through the eyes of a child", in exemple: 20171102 - AURORA - Nidarosdomen - 06/12 Lucky 20171102 - AURORA - Nidarosdomen - 09/12 Through the eyes of a child Anyway, thanks for this nice reaction to Aurora, this brilliant singing little moth, here as a haunting soul who lets her emotion gush before she fades away.🙂👍

at the very beginning of her career she was on top. i love that specific performance a lot. but you havn't met eivor yet, right? falling free live at the old theater in tórshavn is one of the very best performances ever. she is easily the best female singer of our time.

You should react to her song called "forgotten love" one of her most hardest song I've ever heard

Bob Dylan and Leonard Cohen are two of Auroras big hero's. She loves them! When Cohen died Aurora was in Chicago, when she heard she changed her concert to include a tribute, it is hardly rehearsed, but she does it anyway, I feel her! So long Marianne..... Marianne was also Norwegian btw..... kzfaq.info/get/bejne/n5pzmtyHsrDNdZ8.htmlsi=SDxGTfFUbLjFfmst

Have you listened to Eivor ? A Faroese singer. If not, listen to Trollabundin live in Norway. What is going on here?

@Just_Lea_ Ай бұрын

+1 for Aurora and Pomme and their Everything matters duet. :) Also, if I can, I would recommend Conan Gray - The Story. Thank you very much for your videos, they are very amazing and are also helping me to get back my joy of (not very good but still mine) singing ❤

@tevvya Ай бұрын

Another performance which has been so expressive to me was the 2023 performance of "Unchained Melody" by Angelina Jordan (age 17) (kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jt6UqKqEz6euc6M.html&ab_channel=BorisPalenovski). The expressiveness of that performance is quite powerful but not at all the techniques of Aurora (I do find comparing the two interesting not just because they are both so expressive but because they are also both Norwegian.)

If you would like to analyze a singer with an extraordinary range and voice control, I would highly recommend listening to DOROTA OSIŃSKA ❗❗❗❗❗❗❗❗❗❗❗❗❗ Let the recommendation be a post by someone under the video of Dorota Osińska's performance written in French: "On m'avait dit elle chante mieux que Lara [Fabian], j'ai cru à une blague, mais elle déchire" ==>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> ❣❣=> eng. “I'd been told that she sings better than Lara [Fabian], so I thought it was a joke, but she kicks ass!”❣❣ Dorota Osińska is a master of sound jumping on the scale during singing (I don't know what it is called professionally). Her scale is amazing. Her control is unreal. I suggest you watch how she sang the song "Je t'aime" by Lara Fabian in the program The Voice of Poland: 💖💖💖The Voice of Poland - Dorota Osińska - "Je t'aime💖💖💖 I want to add that Dorota is a blind person who sang this song without knowing French. Dorota is an example of a person with great talent who, for many reasons, has unfortunately not had the career that a person with such talent deserves. I also recommend seeing her first performance on The Voice of Poland. The video has English subtitles: 🧡🧡🧡The Voice of Poland - Dorota Osińska „Calling You" with English subtitles🧡🧡🧡
