About crossing the line into becoming too emotional: What about Kelly Clarkson breaking down singing Piece by Piece? kzread.info/dash/bejne/nYmcuJJuqZSxiNY.html It was a dramatic moment on national television that produced a groundswell of sympathetic reactions because it was spontaneous and genuine. So, when Aurora's voice breaks or her emotion pours forth in spasms of tortured movements or even in finger-waving anger (It Happened Quiet), it's because she gets lost in the story telling or is reliving her experiences, and the audiences feel even more deeply drawn into the world not repulsed by it because it's real and it's one of the reasons they come to see her.

The reason I watch you is because you tend to do exactly what you see in Aurora, when you watch the performance you seem to really get into it and react naturally! Thanks for putting these up, and thanks to Aurora for being one of the best vocalists in the world.

It's interesting that both Angelina and Aurora both sang bare footed at a Nobel Peace Prize Concert.

@faiznuranis25

For someone so expressive like Aurora, it is just natural to be barefooted. As far as I have watched her concerts, she is always barefoot. Being barefoot allows you to feel the vibrations and more connected. She is like the music herself, so she gotta take everything that's being offered to her.

Every time I hear aurora, I have goosebumps all over my body.

Aurora moves because she’s acting out the story and emotions there in. Like an opera singer. The greatest opera singers are often praised for their acting ability as well as their voices. She can’t help herself.

Your reaction is how we all feel about Aurora. She's a literal angel and a rare treasure to us all! ✨🤍

That moment after she finished is her soul returning back to her body. I love her so much.

She is so amazing. Not really my kind of music but she hits something deep inside me when watching her preform live, put on the Nidarosdomen concert and I'm in tears. Something really satisfying watching industry professionals taken aback from her too, great reaction.

I always love watching YT reactions to Aurora because you can always guarantee 1) a little smile/laugh at her eccentric movements, 2) a look that shows they've been won over and entranced, and 3) some kind of exclamation about how amazing she is

In a nutshell AURORA is extremely underrated, beautiful, amazing, gentle and has a ABSOLUTELY amazing voice

I imagine this would win “Eurovision” 100% no doubt

Thia is my go-to song at times when I feel like I can't bear the burden of life. I just feel like I'm cradled by an angel and tucked into her strong wings for safety. Then I just cry freely

There is a very sincere sense of spiritual connection in her performance.

Her song “Churchyard” is one of my favorite songs right now.

She is positively ethereal! One of my favourite Nobel Peace Prize Concert performances is Dynamite by Sigrid. So heartbreakingly beautiful.

Just wanna say this: The way you watch and listen to these performers is mesmerizing. The emotions you share are humbling to watch and it’s absolutely beautiful, very much like you. I’m a single dad to 3 girls and I’m having them all subscribe now! 🤙🏻🎶

she is the person whose talent just gives your goosebumps all over. if there are angels and mystical creatures hiding among humans. she is definitely one of them. she is just beautiful in every aspect.

You mentioned loving the backup singer, you need to watch Murder Song (5,4,3,2,1) from this same concert. It's just her, that backup singer harmonizing with her and playing the guitar. She becomes completely mentally teleported elsewhere during that performance.

The first time I heard Aurora... I just felt in love with her angelic voice.. She's just pure perfection...

You are truly getting "AURORA" and how she goes into her own world when she sings and how her music runs thru her bringing out all her many movements and then when she's done you completely see when she comes back from the place she went while singing..She is such a unique singer and performer..She is like no other..I came across her video for the first time over a year ago just looking thru KZread videos and decided to click on hers and I'm soooooo glad I did..I've listened to her everyday since then..Watched every video of hers I can find..She brings us into her world every time and we actually FEEL her music,her lyrics..I just love Aurora..

I love the fact that this guy is beaming from ear to ear through because it truly shows just how incredible she is as a performer and a song writer

I really hope you react to more of her music. I know you’ve mostly listened to her covers, but she is such a beautiful artist with her own beautiful lyrics. I’m really happy you’ve tried one of her own songs...

Aurora is so underrated

Her movements is her. It's her presence, she feels her music beautifully

Aurora said in a tv interview that the creativ process in making songs and having the control in the studio, to do what ever you want is liberating, but ones you perform the song live on stage it's out of your hands. You as an artist isn't important anymore. It's all about the song and she is just a tool, a vessel to the song. It comes to her from somewhere and goes through her out to us all. That's why she is so in the moment. Be safe Björn

I'm relatively new to Aurora but she absolutely embodies music as emotional expression. You can tell in every performance that she is really feeling and living what she sings in the moment.

Aurora is treasure

It feels like AROURA is just a SANCTIFIED SINGER...who grooves away the attention...and makes us feel cosy and soothing..♥️!!

Great reaction, completely agree with all your points! She's in her own world, you see that she needs a few seconds after the song to 'land' again. And thinking she wrote this when she was so young, and also, she was 19 at this performance! Murder song in the same concert is also amazing, I recommend to see that as well, if not do a reaction...?

I saw her in concert recently and after following her for a while you can just tell how she’s grown and even improved. When she sang this song, her lower range dipped lower than you can hear on any of her recordings of this song. It was chilling and beautiful.

The thing you call falsetto flip is from norwegian folk music. An old song technique called Stev. We don't really have a word for it, som call it "krull". It reminds of the riffs and rolls you find in RnB.

11. Because she was herself. Not mislead by school and education maybe. What a wonderful person. 💜😙🌈

She’s amazing, it’s so inspiring to see people like her perform without any superficiality. Some people don’t understand why she’s showing a lot of emotions with her movements, and it’s understandable because it’s not common. We don’t meet oversensitive people like her or me everyday, but at this right moment she’s just herself, free and she knows perfectly how society works and all the rules: to behave well, to make the "good manners" around others you know. At this right moment she just decided to be herself with no limits, she puts freedom first because if not she would feel like she was in a cage and i think it’s wonderful and beautiful to be who you really are in front of a crowd. Even though it can be special i think it’s what’s makes her brave. I have so much respect for her because of that. Thank you for this video, it was really interesting :)

This song makes me wanna go out to the forest and appreciate nature ♥️♥️

She is the 5th element and must be protected at all costs. Listen to Through The Eyes of a Child stripped, live, for dscvr vevo. You won't regret it. It's different from the one in the church. This one is a capella. You'll have goosebumps for days.

I think when watching an Aurora video and doing a reaction, NEVER say "I'll stop pausing", because most of us would say she's too good not to stop and appreciate. I never get mad at a creator pausing for her! 🤣💕

Your face expressions at 6.50 and smile is how we all felt when listening to this song

Murder Song from the same concert is a great performance too and also written when she was so young. Aurora wrote this song after reading about a "murder" in the paper near her homeland. A man killed his wife / girlfriend out of love. She was seriously ill and suffered more every day. He released her from suffering. The song is sung from the perspective of the woman's ghost. She also makes it clear that she understands her husband. This is pure love. Maybe it was with the woman's consent (I hope so) or he made the decision on his own. No idea. But it was love. And this is her darkest Song. You will only find this explanation of this song in one interview with her. It's not written anywhere else. And usually she doesn't explain her songs that specifically either, because she wants everyone to find their own story in them. This way songs stay interesting longer. That's why I also believe that this explanation was just an accident. It was also just a brief side note on a question asked, by the way. She usually only says to the song it is a true tragic love story that doesn't end well.

Nobody .nobody does it like Aurora I m in love with her ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

This song is so powerful, I learned it today on the guitar, and it really transports you. This song is a gift from the Fae, she channeled it straight from Source, I swear

Such a masterpiece!! It's funny her songs are getting more recognition now, I remember back in 2014 when I saw her for the first time singing warrior I fell in love with her style and how she not only sings well but she expresses her self well while singing it's like she's telling a story

Hey Ken, good to have you back with your reflections and input. Yes indeed Aurora is such a delight to watch and listen, she takes you somwhere else when she sings and performs, she is so intense and expressive. Definitely a very special soul, and she's been doing this for me for the last ive years and I know I'm not the only one in this very gratifying experience, with all this Love and Magic she shares with us. She is caring and concerned and seeking for the best in us, always reminding us how beautiul it is to be humans and how we shouldn't forget how to treat each oursleves and others, with with respect and rkindness, and of course, Mother Earth as well. Yes she is unique and a very wise and gifted young lady. The Viking Fairy Queen lives among us...we're so lucky

She is a complete pure soul. With friendly behaviour and that angelic voice of hers. Through her voice we can connect to the song. She is precious. Love it.

I’m not usually the type to tear up during a song but, this one just hit different and her voice is so beautiful

This song with her voice and motions make me feel like I’m in a new world like never land or something

Bro he had tears in his eyes just like i did. Her voice teleported me to my most beautiful thoughts 💯

An amazing thing seeing her live is watching her go from another world, a sort of trance, during her singing, into a state of vulnerability for a moment and THEN IMMEDIATELY into a sense of the community of the concert, a vocal concern for her audience where she’ll ask if people need water or if they can hear ok. To be that emotionally self-focused and contained to totally open to humanity in a few seconds just shows her incredible emotional range.

Really enjoy all the exposure to new music. As a performer of original music it's so important to be able to draw them in. Being a magical woodland elf helps I'm sure. She is incredible.

She is an amazing woman. Her music is broadsweeping, and seems to be for everyone, yet when you listen, the songs are just for you and they feel so intimate. Her tone and clarity is amazing. When she hits those high notes, she makes it look super easy. The lyrics of her songs are also fantastic and they make you think. I fall in love every time I hear her.

Ken, Thanks, I love your reviews, a big fan. You are honest, knowledgeable, personable, and a lot of fun to watch when all kinds of artists make you head explode. Aurora has referred to herself when she was young as being autistic . In my opinion, it is from that place for her that she exudes her most fabulous attributes; Her remarkable tone and singing technique, emotive dancing, conducting, seeing and singing in color, withdrawing deeply into the song, purity of tone and hauntingly beautiful harmonies, both writing and simply telling it like it is in black-and-white with a remarkable tenderness. This is what whisks us all away on the her journey. There seems to be nothing false about her. Her many available online interviews are very revealing about how matter-of-fact she is. There is also the 50 minute Haik Concert video that shows us who she really is. Aside from her own works, it is really important to see her remarkable covers. The Beatles, Leonard Cohen, Bowie, Nat king Cole, Massive Attack, Imagine Dragons, Oasis, Howard Blake, Bob Dylan, Ariana Grande, Naughty Boy, The Weeknd, Betty Noyes, Miley Cyrus, Alanis Morisette , and John Farnum. She transforms them all into her own beautiful version like the artist she is. Thanks again and enjoy this journey.

YES! Beguiling is a word that I’ve been looking for while watching AURORA for the last three days. Thank you!

This is one of the most amazing performances I have ever seen.

Her voice is so beautiful why am I jus hearing this for the first time 😍

Music is definitely her super power.

yes in this concert she was 19 but she made the song runaway at age 11 which is impressive
