In her performance of this at Rough Trade East, London, she dedicates the song to “. . . the Mother who takes care of the people who aren’t welcome in heaven.” Like me.😊
Thanks, I really enjoyed your reaction, and all your commentary. BTW, this is her show opener most of the time on this tour. (Sometimes it's been Churchyard.)
Great reaction as always🤗 Her live performances are so good, she’s amazing😍😍 Looking forward to you continuing on “Dance on the moon”😉🥰 My favourite live performance of the song is at the “Exist for love session”, acoustic version😍
A long, long time ago, Eve took a bite of a forbidden apple hanging from the tree of evil and good. In her act of doing so, she granted humans free will; I just think that is very beautiful, and I wanted to honour her and women like her, who little by little granted us freedom in this world. A freedom to live as we please, to explore and taste. I think life should be lived in all of its colours, and that is why we live like heathens
It is a pretty complicated song it seems. Obviously the part of stealing from the tree of Eden is about Eve, and Aurora also said that in interviews. But each song on the album is also linked to a Greek god, and this song is on the list linked to Persephone the queen of the underworld, and she is apparently the mother in the song, but I'm not sure about the details, she mentioned it before, but I do not have a quote. Then to make it even more confusing she said in a livestream that the song meant something to her personally as well, which she wouldn't reveal. I think the mother in the lyrics is referring to Mother Earth/Nature as well. Here are some quotes from Aurora: "A long, long time ago, Eve took a bite of a forbidden apple hanging from the tree of evil and good. [...] In her act of doing so, she granted humans free will; I just think that is very beautiful, and I wanted to honour her and women like her, who little by little granted us freedom in this world. A freedom to live as we please, to explore and taste. I think life should be lived in all of its colours, and that is why we live like heathens." "The mother in this song, she offers love and room and a home to all the people that aren’t welcome elsewhere. That’s the spirit of the song. It’s very inspired by women, especially how many women have been punished and burned just for being women. It’s an ode to women." "To me the song has a very specific meaning, but I'm trying to not be too specific. I want all of you to find your own meaning, that is why I'm just saying like general things. But for me it has a really, a really clear meaning behind it. But I don't want to tell too much, cause I want you all to find your own meaning."
Wow thanks for the added information! I can see it as Eve now and that is a great message! It's interesting to see it interpreted as Persephone too! I love interacting with the gods and goddesses of different pantheons and Persephone when she is in the underworld is not someone you want to mess with lol love and respect her though! I don't really process lyrics the first time I hear a song and when specific words popped out like evil and Eden I just thought of Lilith who is a women who rebelled against the male patriarch and wanted to be her own woman. Eve came after her and could possess the same traits to some degree when she decided to take the apple from the tree of knowledge.
Truth iis the Viking Fairy Queen is talking to your soul and you know what she means and you understand it perfectly she is telling you and me and the rest personally
First song in this vid is Heathens check it out you'll love it ua-cam.com/video/y0HR1gYrCdk/v-deo.html Aurora is the Queen of any stage she lays foot on!!!!!!!
Thanks for leaving a link! I really enjoyed her performance of Heathen there! I will have to watch it fully when I'm done reacting to her songs first :)
Hello INFJ girl. I understand as I am a fifty something INFJ myself. The song is not about Lilith, but about how Eve took the apple and gave humanity freedom and knowledge to live how they want. Keep up with the great reactions!
@@willywonkasamekindasaurora5536 It can mean whatever you want to, but I am going with what Aurora herself said and not adding anything. I like the idea though.
Great. I have even "more favorite" songs from the last album but it is great song and I even like more live version then album one. it is a true even not considering that her expressions adds to the live version :). For example I like louder vocalizing then in album version which was more subtle :). And of course there is also her great way of expressing music and cool dancer moves in the background on top of it:).
Fantatistics. As you say :) It could be Lilith. But also Eve deified? (not my preferred hypothesis). Or the Earth Goddess, Gaia, in one or other of her forms or acceptances. I think it has more to do with that. But our imagination is given a lot of freedom with this song. Which does not give me less goosebumps! Your reaction was great. And we will gladly take what you give willingly. It is only a sharing when it is given freely.
