    Please invite AURORA for a high tea on the channel, she would definitely come on. She is all in for everything small and yet to be discovered potential: She enjoys collaborating with starting artists the most, even organizing a full online event just to provide a boost in their careers (Exist For Love Sessions). She loves the smaller venues and gigs, like when she performed a completely restyled version of warrior for an audience of three (Haik). And she loves the smaller media stations, giving the first opportunities to interview her to local radio stations and hobby podcast makers. You would get an immediate "YESSS!" and lots of appreciation in a way only AURORA could give when receiving an invitation for an online high tea 🍵🍪 I think her favorite tea was mentioned in the interview with Triple J about her Books & Tea Ssssshhhhelffff...

      I do agree - not usually my style of music - BUT this life performance is for me the gold standard. It amazes me what an artist like Aurora is capable of doing, what her potential is - she probably didn't even had to be taught on how to sing. All of this is the definition of true genius. that sets her apart from ordinary humans like myself. Most people live their life "to survive", very few have the privilege of a "meaningful" life, in a sense to make a difference to many other humans. Aurora is certainly one of the few.

      I’m in my late 50s and feel the same. I’ve now seen her three times and she’s the only artist I’ve gone overseas to see. I’ve seen so many great bands and performers (and I’m a musician and songwriter myself), but she has eclipsed everyone I’ve ever seen live, even bands and artists I had previously considered my favourites. Only Sandy Denny and Kate Bush come close as artists, for me.

      A 56 year old nihilistic, & terminally annoyed Punk Rock Lifer sits slack~jawed, wondering how was I delivered here? Answering myself, “It does not matter, I’m very fortunate to be.”
      Adequate language escapes me in describing the effect of this artist, & the members in her musical support, upon first exposure. I can confidently share only that I was & am repeatedly floored by this Norse avalanche of shamanic intuition & authenticity. Streaming tears & smiling time after time, song after song, & moment to moment feels the only available response when all others are rendered inadequate. This is light~bearing exhalation of human frailty as well as an ode to resolve & perseverance of the human spirit. A drinking fountain in the desert.
      Music is life; It can chase you off, invite you in, or merely be there should you need a place of escape for a time. AURORA’S music is vast & comforting, with ample seating & a perfect view from anywhere.
      I would love to see AURORA share a stage with Nick Cave for an evening. For me, they are the The undeniable carriers of the torch, & should they touch, we might all joyfully disappear into the light.
      You have provided space borrowed from Leonard Cohen, & that same space you bring freely to the feet of those weary travelers most in need of it. Mr. Cohen is so proud of you, AURORA, as am I, & as are we all of one another in this moment, having all received & responded to your summon.
      The Haik full documentary is a masterpiece of musical connectedness. So much an outpouring of caring & mutual consideration plays on every frame, every conversation, each sound, & every perfect edit, recounting & bringing the viewer inside the unveiling, one story at a time, of a day carved with great care & empathy, from lovingly informed materials, by its architect, conductor, & director of this adventure, Christine Dancke, then generously gifted to AURORA, for All Of Us to share in, & bear witness.
      …Love Unsurpassable, & Magic Incarnate.

I've watched a ton of reactions since I was lucky enough to discover her a few months ago, and many of them are the same way. Guys who usually listen to metal, but are just mesmerized by Aurora's voice, and what she brings to her performances. And once you're hooked, you just want to see and hear more and more.

    Dear Elisabeth. This reaction and analys is why you are the best out there in UA-cam land. You see things that take several months for me to discover and see. The "belting" part is so impressing but for me it´s the crying notes two times in the song that make me teary eye every time. Thank you for the beautiful and kind words to my soulhealers singing .I know you have a ton of other artists and songs. But we can hope for a new reaction video of Aurora "soon" . And i dream that would be AURORA - Lucky in Nidarosdomen

      Elisabeth is the best commentator on UA-cam, because of how she understands and feels music, BUT also she has the most eloquent (sometimes poetic) way to explain and describe music. Always a revelation to me, especially when the music like here is so intriguing.

    I was hoping you'd do this one. When I saw it in the feed I just got out the box of tissues and sat down. This song is supposedly inspired by an article she saw in the media about a man who killed his mate to end her ongoing suffering from a vicious progressive incurable disease. It is sung from the perspective of the woman living with the suffering. Some have said she was the "victim". I think the woman is describing how both of them are victims of an unimaginably tragic life situation. The sensitivity Aurora demonstrates in writing a song that does not judge either party and just conveys the brutal heartbreak and emotion is unbelievably empathetic on her part.
    This was performed in an auditorium full of 23,000 people and you could hear a pin drop. I don't want to misquote her but she has said performing at this event was scary. She has said she really did not like performing live early in her career, but then she realized that once she creates a song she can let go of it like you'd let go of a child and then when she performs it it is not about her and she just becomes a conduit for it to flow through her. Her song Awakening about a young girl who commits suicide by drowning is equally sensitive, empathetic and non-judgmental. She is not afraid to tackle hard subjects and shine light on them.
    She is as vulnerable as finely spun glass and as strong as high carbon steel. Her art rips you apart and heals you at the same time. Who does that? Her art is almost too intense to bear, but you can't look away. She is a siren in the form of a wood nymph. Resistance is futile!

    Your summary was wonderfully phrased. She does indeed take us somewhere else, and is indeed so true, so authentic. That’s what communicates. I’ve never seen anyone who can do that in the way that she does. Such a gorgeous, haunting song too. She is, without question, my favourite artist. That she’s also extremely intelligent, utterly lovely - so warm and caring - and hilarious too just adds to it all.

    In minute 12:16, notice how she sank in her thoughts and emotions towards that guy once she said "holds me tight" with a slight smile, she immediately reminds herself to go back to reality once saying "oh" where the smile disappeared, also in 12:08 the huge love she holds towards him explains how she shakes her head with her eyebrows' expression while saying "he didn't mean to do no harm" in an unconscious way to defend him at all costs, she also looks at different faces in the crowd as if she's begging them to believe her. Aurora's a miracle !

I'm a sucker for heartbreaking stories that make me cry and she's written that exact kind of story in a way that is rare in modern music. Aurora has a special talent in her voice, stage presence, and facial expressions. It's so captivating and entrancing. The harmonies feel a little reminiscent of The Civil Wars, which I love. Elizabeth if you've never reacted to The Civil Wars I highly recommend their song "Poison and Wine"

I am so darn excited i am almost dying of impatience. best moment of my life, but i feel its going to be topped by her next concert. i am planning things already that im going to ask her. omg i cant wait, ive always been so unlucky in life, i lost my partner in a car accident i was in i almost died also, 64 broken bones, my skull split in 2 and all my organs pierced by broken ribs, i was in a coma for 6 months and was given a 2% chance to live, i beat all the odds thankfully, i just wish my partner had been alive so she could have seen Aurora too.
