This cover is so underrated, this song suits her so extremely well. And the voice of Aurora is so smooth, comforting and angelic here. Can listing to this version on repeat ❣️

How bout me loving this so much im about to burst..... I love Alanis. Haven't listened to her for ages. What a treat to get the opportunity to love this song all over again. It is 1000% surething that she kept it to the original. Im sure it her way of showing the elusive kudos to Alanis.

Just seeing this now (2024). Thanks Adam. Great cover of a great song❤

When this song first came across a Spotify Playlist, I didn't realise that it was Aurora. It wasn't until a very distinctive note/tone she hits that I came to my senses. This woman is a chameleon, but very unique at the same time.

Love this song by Alanis! Alanis's "shouting" vocalizations really suit Aurora's voice. Thank you for explaining those "dangling carrots". I had no idea what they meant, and that they're also a part of an idiom.

I saw this as referring to icicles. Canadian perspective.

Absolutely fantastic cover. You’ve done full Aurora concerts in the past and I was hoping you could react to her full concert she did this year in Bergen. She has an orchestra behind her and her vocals are flawless. She does her old songs but with a slight twist. I know you’d really enjoy it.

So I did a live stream to this when it wasn’t available on KZread. I watched it along with people who had watched it 😁 It’s still available on my channel if you want to watch to play a video of it alongside mine 😊

She didnt want to do it something else. Shes true to it. It should be!!❤️

Was an Alanis fan back in the day, and a bigger fan of Aurora now, and this is an amazing combo. Imagine hearing this as a duet?

I admit I've never really considered myself an Alanis Morissette fan, but my sister had this album back in the day and she did undeniably release some pretty great tunes. Hearing Aurora covering this song made it seem almost like it was written with her in mind, even though she must've been like two years old when it was released. Alanis + Aurora = Perfect match! Makes me curious to find out what else will be on this album...

I'm a huge huge Aurora fan.....as well as a massive Alanis fan. Alanis' first two albums are undeniable. And Thank U is probably my favorite song she ever made...indeed, one of my favorite songs of all time. It's SO simple...just the 1, 4, and 5 chord...over and over. But the emotions and vibe is immaculate. And I totally agree that it almost feels like this _could have_ been written by Aurora herself. Lyric-wise it's totally in her wheelhouse in terms of themes and imagery. I could see Aurora writing that "transparent dangling carrots" line....as well as the entire notion of being grateful for things like emotional catharsis, existential angst, the profundity of silence, etc. I still love the original the most....only because it's a perfect 10/10 song...and I adore the chanting vocalizations Alanis does in the outro...that Aurora only hints at a bit in her version. Also, Aurora stayed pretty darn true to the original in terms of instrumentation/arrangement...and I feel like her best covers push things in new directions more. But....I still absolutely love her version too. I mean, it's a perfect song....kinda hard to mess up!

I totally see why Aurora chose this song. Magnificent! And I was struck by the realization that Aurora has written an entire song about almost every line of this song. Perfect on all counts. :)

ikr? It's a song that literally has the lyric "thank you...thank you silence..." That's such a quintessential Aurora lyric lol. Altho I think both Aurora and Alanis are similar in many ways. Both are VERY good at writing super catchy hook laden pop music....AND both of them have a very deep emotional core and are 100% devoted to the art and soul of music, with the commercial aspect simply not being the point. They both have tons of talent and integrity basically.

First time hearing Aurora sing this song she did it perfectly she kept the Alanis vocal styling but with that beautiful Aurora voice it was perfect as you said Adam great choice I love them both so thank you for your good taste in Music !!! Great Reaction !!! 🦁🦁🦁🦁.

That was so perfect and so fitting for Aurora! Can’t wait for the rest of this album!!

I discovered aurora thru her other covers, namely her Massive Attack cover as I’m a massive MA fan. I totally agree with you - she has a style she puts into most of her covers and what I love about this one specifically is she really kept the integrity of the original. You can hear the respect she has for Alanis when she sings this. She could have gone way more into her “ethereal” vibe vocally and musically, but I’m glad she didn’t and instead preserved the pace and the melody of the original; it really gave me the impression that this song in particular is somehow special to her. Gorgeous cover of a now-classic. So glad to see others have taken notice.

Thanks for this Adam, love to watch your reactions, to our Norwegian national treasure. We seem to have the same taste in music, not afraid to "unabashedly bawling your (our) eyes out".

I belive that this is so close to her heart. To close to mess around with it. This is for a album. "Goodnight songs for rebel girls" I think. Can not wait for this.

Beautiful reaction and beautiful cover by my favorite artist. Her vocals are everything. Thank you for this, I had never heard this, I thought I had heard all her covers. 😍

I love the song. I actually listened to Alanis’ original before listening to Aurora’s cover. I thought it was exceptional! Thanks for the reaction since the video is not released in the States.

She stayed very true to the original with just a little bit of tweaks, perfect combination

I’ve listened to this on repeat since it was released, love your Aurora reactions!

Again I see your reaction before the actual video of her. :D Thanks a lot for that ! Alanis was one of my favs in my early 20s, and Aurora is one of my beloved favs today, so this synergy is bringing up nice memories and emotions, both old and actual.

Yes, perfect song, perfect reaction, Aurora is so perfect! Very timely message given current times!

This cover slaps! Aurora's so good.

Soooooo goooood🥰this song brings up good memories😄Love them both....Aurora magic once again,Thank you Adam🤗🌞💃💃💃

knew someone would react soon. not available here. didnt know it was a cover, but thought it odd for AuRoRa to use a U. not one to do that. thanks for this!!

Jeez man told you.......beautiful!!! Absolutely loveAlanis, I've seen her like 5 times she's feraking awesom...and Aurora is simply and absolutely the Besrt of the best!! fihopefully Always loved this song by Alanis...and now Aurora! I found it this morning,I must have listened at list 10 times...I'm a completete Thank You junkie............. so what next?......

Beautiful song 🎶🎼🎶 I like your reaction 👍 💯 Thank you 🌿

Great reaction, I hadn't heard this cover yet. I remember Alanis singing it, though :) I noticed there's a cover missing from your Aurora-Collection, unless I just haven't looked hard enough, and that's her cover of Life on Mars, by David Bowie. It's amazing

Now Alanis has to cover "Under the water" 😊

Nailed it👍👍😁😁

Aurora has never disappointed me, that I remember, and my expectations going into each new listen are always very high. For whatever reason, I never got around to listening to much of Alanis, but I did like her. I am especially drawn to females who aren't afraid to color outside the lines, which is why I like the whole concept of "rebel girls". A great song, and a perfect rendering by Aurora.

i really like it but im still a little surprised how true to the original she made it =)

Another great cover by Aurora! She can do no wrong🙂 Really love how she uses her fantastic voice in this true-to-the-original version. But I wonder why she made that slight change to the lyric in the very first line...? English isn’t my first language, so I don’t know if «off of» means the same as just «off»? Did Aurora leave out the «of» to give the lyrics a slightly different meaning, if so I don’t get it...😊

My Queen Aurora, made one major change, she considered her target audience. and made the song much more child-friendly

I love Alanis Morrisette. When I was school used to listen to her music. This cover makes me reminds her. I dont know anything about Aurora. I liked it. Although it's very similar to the original version.

More aurora reaction please

Hey hey

This is Alanis's Song in my books, always will be, she WROTE it after all. However, Aurora is the only singer I'm happy to hear cover it. I too am surprised how close she keep it to the Original though. "dangling carrots"= * a method of tempting a Donkey to move forward by Dangling a Carrot before it, and beating it with a stick if it refuses. * The phrase Carrot and stick denotes a promised reward coupled with a threatened punishment as a method of persuasion or coercion.

Sometimes her covers are very similar to the original, sometimes not. She is a Leonard Cohen fan and all Cohen covers I have heard are very true to the original. You reacted to "Famous blue raincoat", but try "The partisan".

AURORA's version of "The Partisan" brought me to tears. I looked up the history of the song -- Here's the short version: it was written by the leader of the French Resistance during WW II, and performed in cabarets by his girlfriend and fellow resistance member. Years later Leonard Cohen recorded a version in English (which included a female chorus singing one section in French). AURORA sang both the English and French lyrics during a tribute to Cohen after he died. It's well worth reacting to!

kzread.info/dash/bejne/a4aN28FxpZfInM4.html Cohen's world tour 2008. With some fantastic guitar intermezzos. Here Leonard also sings the french version of the verses.

Your reaction at the end was the same as mine. Seems like Aurora chose to truncate a few bars on the outro (which was kinda disappointing seeing how this is the climax and pinnacle for the song's message), but maybe it was intentionally done in the production to be more modest and not to "upstage" the original? Either way, that's my ONLY gripe, otherwise it's perfect. Alanis and Aurora share a similar "whisper to scream" singing style.

Great rendition, and great reaction, thanks! I'm just wondering where your reaction to the rocky/synth version of Running with the wolf has gone? 😉 Link below. kzread.info/dash/bejne/pZNmksedaM6Tmpc.html I guarantee that you will like it, and again, a completely different version than any other I've heard from her. And not much watched either, and no reactions, so you'll be the first.

Only thing I would critique..... The song is TOO SHORT!! :P

Try this, Ane Brun - Do You Remember. A little more up beat from her! kzread.info/dash/bejne/Y6B9lZKKp5mfcbQ.html

I have to get me a siggaret. Be right back.

Ahhhhh.... now it is much clearer... I was irritated by the lyrics, and I thought why aurora says this? Cause I thought the lyrics were made new for this project. I totally missed, that these are the original lyrics from Alanis... I haven't heard the original since ages... now I am less confused.... but still... I dont understand some phrases... like: thank you India ( for what?) ... or... thank you terror (what?) I dont get it, maybe because I don't know the background... can someone explain it to me please? After all the song, the music is perfect for Aurora.... it sounds sooooo good. It could be an original of her... very, very beautiful 💜💜💜💜💜
