Words from my mind, I was going to say an instruction manual, but phonebook works. Any damn thing & I’d be enthralled & spellbound. Pure magic.

Awesome reaction. Fun fact - she never had piano lessons or learned notes, so she always play by ear. And knowing that she learned this song 30 min before she performed it, makes it even more impressive.

i know!!!! i don't think people really know just how crazy good she is

It blows my mind that she didn't know the song an hour before this and is basically just playing off the lyric sheet with her own fast notes on it. It speaks not to her talent (of which she has plenty) but to her craftsmanship in arrangement.

Another of the NRK P3 sessions with Christine. She went for a interview and to promote one of her songs and the 'price' was that she was given a list of songs/bands to choose a cover to do ... She thought the name 'Imagine Dragons' was cool, the idea of dragons struck her but she knew nothing of the group or song. About 30 minutes later this happened 😮😍

Astounding

"How does she dance between the notes" So, my guess is that she doesn't know that it should not be possible and therefore she just does it ^^

Rare for a singer to have such a crystalline vocal that can carry so much emotion at the same time. Gorgeous music.

"Hang on...there's an aspect to this song I've never considered before." Yes, yes!! That perfectly describes my response to her covers, as well. She always honors the essence of the originals, while showing us, imo, hidden gems that we may not have interpreted in the originals. 💖

That's what she does. Always amaze us.

Great reaction. The last 10 seconds are my absolute favorite first because of her delicate vocal color she adds to the ending piano phrase, and second the way in the very last second you get a glimpse of her intentions as she decides when exactly to end and hesitantly pull her hands away. As you noticed it matches her "ok, I've decided I am done with this work of art now" face. It really screams top tier artist to me.

Haha yeah what an ice-cool way to finish.

Knew you would love this one, so haunting and totally different feel to the song . Aurora doesn't need to do covers because she has a massive catalogue of her own but I am so glad she does. Wait till you here her and her band doing across the universe beatles cover you are in for a treat, again great reaction keep em coming.

When we see the tekst for the song, she usualy made the cover within an hour before broadcast. And the song is mostly not known by her from before. For NRK P3 she have done some of those. I really like the way you reacis Sreve !

Hello there! Do you look att her thiny hand when she plays. They are so streched there must be so difficult to play like that. This is one of my favourite cover by her. Love the original but she makes a level extra dimension and the tone she have her... It such a beautiful trip.. Great reaction and i could only hope that you come back to Aurora soon.

Thank you for a great week! 🙏 Interesting reactions and Aurora always touches my soul no matter what she performes 😌

Yay! I’m so glad you reacted to this amazing cover😍😍 And thanks for an awesome week, to bad it’s over😔❤️ Yeah tricky, but even more trickier when she actually didn’t know the song or the band until an hour before singing it live. And it’s mind blowing that she’s self taught when it comes to singing and playing piano 😳💕 She said this at the radio station P3: “I'm not very good with new music as you probably all know. I also went through their list of songs and saw the name Imagine Dragons. I hadn't heard of them before and thought it was such a cool name - DRAGONS ARE SO COOL!” She’s such a great artist and performer, I never get tired of her, and I’ve been a fan since 2014❤️ I know you’re not finished reacting to her, and she has soooo many songs left for you 😉👍💕

Thanks Harald, so pleased to hear your found it worthwhile!

At 5:16 in this video when she looks up, you can sense she is looking around checking what's going on in the room, because she is completely immersed in the music while playing, so she is not aware what else is going on around. You can see this in several other live performances. It's another cover on P3 radio station that she rehearsed while being in the studio, you can see she has the lyrics on the paper on the piano. She didn't know "Imagine Dragons" before this, she has said many times that she is bad at knowing other music, and she does not listen to as much music as you might think, because she is always playing around with her own melodies and lyrics in her head, it gets to be too much. Here is a quote from the radio show that day: youtu . be / q_-ZDDFt_zA&t=1453s (CC for Eng Subs) "- In the choice of songs you could cover, you chose "Imagine Dragons", what was the reason for that? Aurora: Ok, I know I do not know new music very well, as everyone probably knows. I looked at your list, and then I saw the name "Imagine Dragons". I've never heard of them before, so I thought it was such a cool name. I am very... I think dragons are damn cool, yay! I wasn't too prepared for their name, and "Believer" was a nice title. So I thought it is probably lyrics I dare to sing."

Nice! If you love these solo-on-piano/keyboard performances, might I suggest a bonus reaction to conclude this week? Animal Soul at NRK P3. That one is a must for everyone who likes and want to understand Aurora.

@@steveogreact There's a whole series of London Grammar waiting to be tapped, especially from their first couple of albums. Love the channels, keep up the great work

i believe it is to intuitive ( maybe 100 % ) to be her mind singing speaking, playing, moving etc.

Check out the other performance from this session where she performs “I Went Too Far”. I saw your reaction to her video of the song but this acoustic version also her haunting piano and vocals that conveys an air of tragedy that only Aurora can create.

Another P3 cover. I am happy they have this challenge with covers as few covers was made there by Aurora and maybe it would not be made if not this cover challenge :). And her covers are so interesting and beautiful :). And you can even see it is this within one hour challenge as she has notes on a piano :). Funny thing she choose that song as she like Dragons (and fantasy books which i can relate as as also read a lot of fantasy and Sf books :) ). If you like to see her on a piano but in an original unreleased song I would also recommend Animal Soul version from P3. This is one of my favorite unreleased songs from her :). kzread.info/dash/bejne/mJVp17iNfMrMmbw.html Ps. Also thank you for another interesting Auroras reaction and the whole week 'thing' :).

Omfg 😳 This hit me right in the heart ❤️

Aurora does not do covers as much as she remakes songs as her own.

This cover goes right under my sking. She is just so good! For me there is nobody I could compare her to. She is just so unique with her incredible talent. I enjoy your way to do reactions a lot - and will go to the next 😅

Her arrangements of the covers she does definitely brings something new to these already recorded songs.

Such a profoundly sublime interpretation. This session includes her performance of Animal Soul and is well worth a look. She seems to draw from somewhere deep inside during this session-somber and haunting as only she can deliver. Superb!

she learned it in an hour

her notes are like the most fragile crystal. it seems like they could shatter in thin air

If you plan to react to more of her older original stuff, i would recommend Winter Bird. I am partly into the song because of the music video where they use autonomous drones. There is a behind the scene video of how they created that music video. Cant link it because comments tends to be deleted right away. My interest in the music video probably has a lot to do with me working on autonomous robots and artificial intelligence. Fun song though even if its not one of my absolute favorites by her.
