I want to thank you all , for all your incredible words ! Soooo happy to share my AURORA experience with you 💕 hopefully will get to 1000 subscribers soon and I hope they are all as wonderful as you all are ! I’m extremely grateful for this brilliant community !
Yes! Hunger and Soulless Creatures, for me at least, are the 2 big underrated songs from this album. Soulless Creatures in particular....it's shocking to me she's only done it live once, it's SO good. But Hunger has such a cool vibe....almost Southeast Asian at times in terms of harmony and timbre. I really hope she explores all sorts of diverse forms of music from around the world in future albums.
I feel like nobody talks about In Bottles..... but.... they should... it's such a cool track, it's honestly one I keep going back to, it's so interesting, i can definitely resonate with it and love the lyrics too, like its really smart! then again they all are
@@FernStone The River is my baby and her Askjell remix is THE remix. Those background chanting vocals in the chorus are scratching juuuust the right itch and it feels so damn good listening to it. And the music video is probably the most beautiful one I've seen from Aurora. Can't even imagine how I didn't like the song when it was released back in 2019... I'm still so looking forward to the video! Hunger is so good, honestly. It's such a shame that it's probably the only song (or one of) that Aurora never performed live🥲
One thing I love about Aurora, and Im just talking about one thing here. Cos there is so many things to love. You cant really have a favorite song. It depends on your mood of any given day really. Just loving your work Fern.
Step I and Step II are really such a special musical experience. Aurora has said that there may even be a Step III eventually to cap off this magnum opus! So glad you loved these and I cannot wait to see you react to HAIK and maybe even her newer songs as the new album comes out!
Oh my Gawd- 😍that possibility of a Step III has me completely riveted. I so hope that Aurora brings this idea to life in a new release. 🤞🏼🙏🏻I cannot get enough of Step I or Step II.
'A different type of human' is actually about death. The concept behind is that what if when we die, "people" come to get us to another planet, in the mothership? Having said that, the song was written from the perspective of the "people" that come to get us. In 'Mothership', we get to the planet, that's why she ask if she's home and later in the song, she says "I'm home" :)
A different kind of human is about death, instead of heaven it talks about going to the mother ship, it tries to explain that the reason people die is because they are somehow " special" or like the tittle says " a different type of human" so they are been removed from this world.
i've been bingewatching your aurora videos because your reactions are so relatable! you FEEL the music instead of just listening, and it makes me feel like listening to the albums for the first time again, her music is so good!
aurora truly feeds my soul...... it's just the truth, I feel everything she feels and she somehow makes me feel how I wanna feel and I can let myself feel the way I do and shake it out and just let loose and Idek comfortable doing so... I love how her music it makes me feel free in different ways and for someone who has a lot of anxieties, insecurities, worries, inner struggles and feels stuck in their own head 24/7 and invaded with constant intrusive and damaging thoughts ..... she transports me and I feel like listening to her is therapeutic and singing with her, dancing, giving myself to tge music and letting it take over and consume, and going through the motions with her insanely incredible music and band
I've watched a lot of Aurora videos since I discovered her about a month ago. I've gone full-on crazy, watching and listening to everything of her, and about her, that I can get my hands on-including a *lot* of reaction videos. Yours are, hands-down, the best. The way that you bring in all aspects of the music to talk about, and appreciate so many disparate elements of each song, is really quite remarkable. You catch so many little things-some of which I hadn't even caught in my *many* listens, like the breath sounds in In Bottles. You caught that right away and I'd never even noticed it! You also seamlessly tie in the lyrics and their meaning with your analysis of the music. Your ability to recall stuff from previous songs and albums and connect it to what you're hearing now is super interesting. The comparisons to things like Madonna, The Prodigy, etc are really cool to listen for. Your ability to describe in detailed layman's terms not just THAT you like the song, but WHY you like the song, can't be overstated. It's a joy to have my enjoyment enhanced by your enjoyment. Most of all though, you perfectly describe how Aurora's music makes me (along with so many others) *feel*. The feelings that you're OK, that you're welcome, that you're *special*...it's so hard to describe that. This is what art is for! To make us FEEL things. And goddamnit does she ever. And you get it, and it's so fun to see someone else get it in the way that I do. Not that anyone's feelings or interpretations are necessarily more right than anyone else's, but...you get it ;-) So, thanks!
Thank you so much , I mean that with my entire being . This is such a lovely comment that isn’t only sweet but actually helps me too . Helps me want to keep going and fills me with such a warm feeling of love . You’re an angel, I’m so happy you enjoyed !
I've been binging your videos for days now and have been thoroughly enjoying them, we have very similar taste, and when you mentioned Moulin Rouge, I literally screamed!! It's my all-time favorite movie ❤❤ that's it, I'm sold on your channel forever 😊
Another great reaction so far. This album is special to me, it was released when I was in Bergen, Norway and it takes me back to walking along the harbour at 8am with my headphones on just enjoying the beauty of the city and music at once X
in bottles is a continuum of "in boxes", both songs tell the story about a woman who kills men (more precisely, her love partners), in in bottles the woman is trying to hide all the parts of the bodies of the other men she killed. That's why she says "I hide all the pieces that I know you wouldn't like, so I hide my children"
whoa from the amount of effort u put into these videos I would assume you'd have a larger fanbase! Been lurking for a while but I've subscribed now; your content is just so chill
Thank you so much for the sub ! I’ve only just started reaction vids ( what I’ve wanted to do for ages ) in the last couple months , I had 146 subs two months ago 😂 ! Hopefully I continue to grow . Got such lovely people here so far and so glad you have subbed , I appreciate your kind words !
A different kind of human is my all time favorite! I feel the same, I think shes like the mother alien and she's inviting you home with her off this earth thats full of cruelty and shes gonna protect you 🥺❤
I'm soooo looking forward to this, Fern! You already know... It's somehow validating seeing someone love something that you feel so close to. I'm excited for you 😁
I cant with how she basically goes “I’m going to be quite surprised if I find another song that I look more than Animal” and after she’s done Animal is ranked FIFTH. Aurora just keeps surprising us
Late to the party but have my random comment anyway haha A few months ago she organised some of her songs into themed compilations and would then do a UA-cam live talking about her choices and singing one of the songs. For her Stories compilation she sang A Different Kind of Human and explained the meaning behind it - it's for the people who leave too soon and for whom the world caused so much pain, and she imagined little creatures coming down and offering comfort and taking them to a safe place where they wouldn't feel that pain anymore. The song hadn't really left a lasting impression on me previously but listening to her talk and then sing it made me break down crying in my shower lol because there was someone who'd been on my mind a lot and now I think of them when I hear the song, hoping they made it to that safer place This comment is so rambling but I appreciate Aurora's artistry and this album so much and thank you for doing such a lovely reaction to it
I also love the lyric in Animal that goes "the weight upon my shoulders felt so divine...." Saucy Aurora! I love how, despite her image as this pure innocent fairy being, she's also quite a sensual and sexual person. But she expresses it in such a cool and empowered way. It's why _some_ fans reaction to that side of her can be so....off putting. You know, the people who think it's their job to "protect her" innocence or something. Yuck. I bet the lyric in her song "Giving In To The Love" is directed precisely at those people.... *_"I want to live my life, be all of it's pages. And underline that I am not an angel. Cause if I'm not pure, I guess that I'm too much...."_*
Can we all just talk about how genius "Apple Tree" is. Like it's beautiful lyrics such as "just like the moon is a stone, but a star when it's dark" or "hunter is loud and predictable, scaring away every prey so they are gone before the hunter arrives". Also a quick vent, the lyric "Can you carry the weight of mortality" hits hard at least for me, because even though I have accepted death as a part of life and my body as a small part of the grand universe to eventually give back, it still hurts to be thrown into a world full of adventures and wonders, emotions both scarring and cherishable (idk if that's a word), to know that you can only experience just so much of it before you're gone😔. That wasn't very quick so thanks for reading it❤️❤️
I totally understand this and very much relate . Let’s hope we go somewhere else or come back in another form . I spend many nights thinking about this but I try come up with amazing fantasies to pull myself away from the fear . Amazing lyrics too , love Apple Tree !
Another amazing reaction!!! I would have watched all one hour forty five minutes plus actually lol. I also found it interesting that my top three all time favorite songs of hers are on this album but only one made it to your top five lol. Really excited to see your reaction to the HAIK concert. I think you should also consider reacting to the full Nidarosdomen concert. It may very well be her very best!
So fun seeing your happy smiling face through this … interesting that you lean towards some of the songs that I wasn’t so keen on but it helped me listen to them again from a different direction. Looking forward to Haik :-)
you are so amazing! auroras music and person really resonates with me and it’s beautiful to see others feel it as well! and something about your reactions is so genuine, you articulate your thought process in such a clear way, but the observations you make are always so smart and interesting :) I feel like I can just vibe with you on the same wavelength but also learn to see the songs in another perspective sometimes, it’s really nice. thank u for existing and doing what u do. I hope you have a wonderful day :)
I loved the reaction, Fern. Sorry I couldn't stay for the live chat earlier. But that just saved me a bit of pleasure before bedtime. I am really excited that you will do the Haik show and concert. It's too late now I guess, but I hope you realised that when the condensed concert starts in the show, you should stop and just shift to the extended concert. But we will see.
LOVE THIS! LOVE THIS!❤ 👏🏻❤👏🏻❤👏🏻 Great reaction!! It's interesting to hear your opinions about the tracks. Don't worry if you think you might not like an especific song, we are human and emotional beings and each of us can connect with things in different ways...or not connect at all. That is ABSOLUTELY VALID. Definitely looking forward to more reactions. You are one of my favourites.😊
1- I Love you. Thank you for sharing all of your reaction, feeling, vibes and also you pine point some details that are cool in the music. 2- Plz never be afraid of our( as Aurora fan) reaction. If you don't like some songs or part or what ever it's ok, Aurora herself doesn't want to plz everyone, She said that their is a song for evryone and it's not evry song for evryone. Grab what you want, you need, that's all. 3- Now i think you realy begin to get Aurora... as you may know by now she is unic and so creative, so take a look at her video, she decide and designe and choose the color and choregraph and almost evrything. they are not some kind of commercial clip to hook ppl to the album, it her showing in a way what she want to comunicate in the song. they are realy cool and powerfull. (and they are some that i love and some that i don't ;-) ) i would recomande the seed, truely an experience and i personely love Queendom. 4- As i love Aurora and enjoye watching ppl discovering her, i've seen sooo many reaction about her, You are my favorit! The way you don't try to explain her technique (cuz she doesn't have any, she is a self taught in music and delevire all by instinc) You don't try to analyse the lyrics and give some meaning to it, you give your feeling, what you get from it and that is realy nice, and i love that you let yourself fly with her, guided by the beat and the waves they create. So Thank You! ( sorry it' too long and i'm french so not well writen but sorry not sorry ;-) ) and don't worry by the time laps, i could watch the all 1h 40 minutes xx
This album is so good. My favs are kind of a tie between Hunger, Soulless Creatures, and A Different Kind of Human. With The River and Apple Tree close behind. I was never super into Animal, tho it's not bad at all, but the pre-chorus....I adore. The part that starts on the lyric _"I stand under headlights...."_ I love how it sorta switches to a half-time feel, and brings in these sizzling sparkly effervescent synth tones. So exciting....
Hey Beautiful so here you are again...so good to see you huh What do you say, did I mention this before? So Aurora really knows how to make good freaking music, oh yes she does...and she makes this very special kind of music you can listen and feel in your mind in your soul in your heart and physically you get the chills from the tip of your hair to the tip of your toes, yes it moves inside you and off course, you know what she is talking about cause you've been there before and you keep going to that place, you fucking know what she's saying cause she is talking about you......and she makes you smile, shed a little tear but she's not letting you down no you feel so good you don't want it to end...More people should be able to find her and this could certainly become a much better place to live. I know the feeling........ and the goosebumps......we're lucky Sweet Fern! Great reaction, holy holy awesome!!!
Ah I just finished watching it, Hunger is so underrated; sadly she hasn't played it live. This is also my #1 Aurora album... its so good! Also Aurora said In Bottles is connected to In Boxes from her 1st album! Just a fun folk-tale storytelling song. so good.
Your favorite in the video became no 4 when editing was finished. That makes sense, in time every song will have rotated around everywhere and you forget what is top and what is bottom of your list. Thanks for sharing your interesting reactions, I enjoy them so much every time ❤
REALLY enjoyed watching you react to this one... such a great album! And you have such amazing energy. SoOoOOo enjoyable spending time with both you and Aurora. I love all the albums. It's mood dependent for me which songs from which album I listen to. There's an Aurora song for every mood me thinks. I can't believe that you are still to explore her live performances. You think the albums were good. They will take on a whole new meaning when you watch her live. Songs you didn't think you liked so much will become your favourites... if you give them a chance. :)
Regarding maybe not liking the album, I just watched another reactor listen to the album. Some songs he loved, but others he was quite dismissive about, a bit aggressively so, even (he is Spanish, so...). But my point is, he received nothing but love in the comments despite that. So don't worry. Besides, I had no doubts since I saw you listen to the first album, that you would like them progressively better as we went along. No doubt at all, based on the elements you liked then. Also, you can only fall deeper in love with Aurora.
Ok but can we talk about your eye makeup for a second , goshh it's so beatiful!! . i would really love for you to react to Imogen Heap's album "Speak for Yourself" , i've been watching a lot of your reactions and i think you're gonna love this one 💕
I would say that you feel what you feel, and only you can decide what your impression of things are. I often would like reactors to like things that I love, but if they don't I usually just move on to the next reactor. I can count on one hand the times I've used the option to dislike a video or a response. It's just so unnessecary. You always have well reasoned arguments for why you like or dislike something, and that is something that commands respect. I think you should always be yourself, and hopefully not care to much about what other people think. This is some advice I need to tell myself too, quite often actually.
Omg you're reaction to The Seed and Churchyard on the last album is everything! 😂 that's literally how I felt when I heard those songs for the first time hahah my fav songs on this album are: The Seed Animal The River Apple Tree/In Bottles (can't decide 😂) Daydreamer Can't wait to watch your reaction to watching The Seed live and HAIK 😍😍😍
Dance on the moon live is a must. Seriously. The exist for love session. I only heard that version first but it's amazing. The studio version does nothing for me. Apple tree is so amazing ,the video is awesome and Daydreamer just makes you feel good inside, the video is great. Also, lady of my heart, a verve fan. I love them! For a sad but powerful song, Little Boy In The Grass Mahogany session is freaking amazing. She makes you feel her pain,
I always encourage watching the live versions, but for Animal you *need* to watch the videoclip - it's a whole other side of Aurora and it's freaking gorgeous. Also, a good reminder that Norway is not just forests and mountains and she's also very much into the rave culture there xD (BTW, "Haik" is pronounced like the english "hike", and means the same (aka giving someone a car hike/ride))
Just want to say that I love your reactions. Can't wait to see HAIK. Would be awesome if you could react to "Once Aurora" sometime, you really get an insight into Aurora as a person, her struggles and her determination. It can be rented/bought on Vimeo. Though there may be more of a copyright issue with that, so I guess you'd have to do what TV/film reactors do. I'd definitely recommend watching it, even if you're not reacting to it.
Here are all the Aurora documentaries (sans HAIK): Into the Light (2015): ua-cam.com/video/3AbrDWIwBO4/v-deo.html Nothing Is Eternal (2016): ua-cam.com/video/4vdBorK67tk/v-deo.html Once Aurora (2018): vimeo.com/ondemand/onceaurora
No no. I'm not flattering unnecessarily .......... Damn who cares, you look amazing Fern. I always miss your live broadcasts. Too much gardening I think. 2 hours late I'm watching you now. Ok! Have now checked this and you are my favorite AURORA listener. However, I am not entirely with you that it is the best record. But that is what is so good about all the three "records" they are so different. I think this record is a bit scattered and I get more emotional from the first and the second. But it's really just little things, all the records are masterpieces in my opinion. But like I said, I'm sold on your reactions. Take care of yourself now !!! .... Look at this one. i think you are worth it. She is so precious Aurora - Nature Boy (acapella) - Melkweg-Amsterdam-The Netherlands 2018-02-28 ua-cam.com/video/1-LtCbPUoTM/v-deo.html
What a lovely and kind thing to say !!! Of course , and exactly they are all so different . I actually totally understand how the first two felt more emotional . Oooh I can’t wait to watch nature boy , I love that song so much . Thank you again 💕
This is Aurora for you. You start listening to her and you think "wow this song is amazing this is the best thing of art I've ever heard nothing can top this in a million years". And then you listen to the next song. But on a more serious note. You are not obligated in any way to like any particular song. This is what reactions are for. There are no people without a sin and as much as it hurts me to say this but Aurora is no exception. I would personally prefer honest opinion over anything else. If anyone will try to belittle you for it he is not a true fan of Aurora at best and not a good person at worst. I'd rather prefer you'd listen to 10 songs and wont like a couple then you not listening to them at all out of fear. Since you will miss out on 8 song you will like.
You're mighty good, hope you know it. And HAIK is pronounced like hike!! Looking very much forward to that. And you should watch the HAIK documentary before reacting to the HAIK concert. Such a gem!!
Great reaction. So many different dimensions to the music on this album it’s not possible to pick a favourite. Will look forward to the Haik (rhymes with Bike I think?) documentary and concert react and your cover when it’s ready. Meanwhile hold on tight on your journey with Aurora.
Like SO mutch to listen to your reaction ! You have so strong, varm energi . No fuss, only your personality ! Best from a 60 year old woman from Bergen Norway
Looks like your "tickled pink" by what you heard, great reactions and commentaries. Your talkativeness is so well appropriate and entertaing. Good show, thanks.
Thank you wonderful !! So close to 1000 now !! I only started reaction vids in March , so glad I did as I have wanted to for so long and finally built up the courage to do so ! One of the best decisions I have made :D
I'm a huge fan but I'd never think bad of anyone if they didn't like a song if it wasn't to their style, I totally get that!! Theres a few songs by other artists I love I don't particularly like as much so it's all good ❤
I thought for sure you'll put a different kind of human on your favorite since you seem to like mystical things but it's ok . I hope it grows in you after a while
@@FernStone to tell u the truth I feel the same because on my initial listen I didn't get into dance on the moon and hunger ,. Soulless creatures . But then as I keep vmcoming back i liked the tree but end up not liking in bottles so.... Its ok
28:43 You're so in the mood that a light orb passed floating between you and the camera, maybe Buddha really was there :) (Could just be dust but I prefer the magical explanation)
Btw I was already missing your reactions, maybe you should make a Patreon and post react to the music videos there so youtube doesn't try to copyright it?
About in bottles: Aurora also has a song from her first ep called "In boxes" that song is about a woman that goes hunting for men, then she kills them and stay with their bodies as a company for some time than she picks a piece of the body and keep under her bed as a souvenir (Aurora said "She loves in a different way") On my opinion In bottles on the same universe as in boxes about the same lady but from the perspective of the men she killed as if their ghosts watching her sleep and telling her to hide them under her spine (under the bed)
Oh yeah , I realised I never reacted to Nature Boy as I was worried the reaction would be too long ! I'm going to do it soon though :) I love that song.
Hi Fern, your a true W&W now☺️ Fun fact, you and Aurora have something in common. Guess you got lots in common but you both say... If that make sense. ALOT. Watch her interviews and you'll see🤣🤣🤣 Btw, my name in english is Stone😊 And im soft inside😁 Keep it up, will watch your Aurora journey. Check out some of her concerts in the future😍
Hahahah ! I definitely say that a lot ! I speak before I think, straight from the heart so sometimes I worry it doesn’t make sense 😂 that’s awesome 😊 definitely.
I want to thank you all , for all your incredible words ! Soooo happy to share my AURORA experience with you 💕 hopefully will get to 1000 subscribers soon and I hope they are all as wonderful as you all are ! I’m extremely grateful for this brilliant community !
Keep it up and 10k in no time, your a joy to watch Fern😁
Fun fact about U and Aurora in my other post🤣☺️😍
Me listening to Infections of a Different Kind:
“Wow, this sound so experimental”
A Different Kind of Human:
“Hold my war paint”
Hahahah yes 🙌
A Different Kind of Human has a special place in my heart
Hunger is so underrated! So glad you love it as much as me! ❤️
I love it tooo
Siempre la pasaba desapercibida, pero gracias a este video se convirtió en my favorite Aurora song!!!
Yes!
Hunger and Soulless Creatures, for me at least, are the 2 big underrated songs from this album.
Soulless Creatures in particular....it's shocking to me she's only done it live once, it's SO good.
But Hunger has such a cool vibe....almost Southeast Asian at times in terms of harmony and timbre. I really hope she explores all sorts of diverse forms of music from around the world in future albums.
The seed is one of my natural anthem for mother earth
watching her and the band performing seed live is just SO GOOD
I feel like nobody talks about In Bottles..... but.... they should... it's such a cool track, it's honestly one I keep going back to, it's so interesting, i can definitely resonate with it and love the lyrics too, like its really smart! then again they all are
Just read the description... I'm GLAD that somebody finally gave my girl Hunger recognition she deserves but I'm also sad that The River isn't there😩
I LOVE Hunger !! And , I'm sorry :( , still you will still like my reaction to The River , because it's a beautiful song !
Anyway , I shan't give any more away haha !
@@FernStone The River is my baby and her Askjell remix is THE remix. Those background chanting vocals in the chorus are scratching juuuust the right itch and it feels so damn good listening to it.

@@FernStone I'm so glad you found my words helpful! I meant it all. All my love to you; keep doing what you're doing 😃
I've been binging your videos for days now and have been thoroughly enjoying them, we have very similar taste, and when you mentioned Moulin Rouge, I literally screamed!! It's my all-time favorite movie ❤❤ that's it, I'm sold on your channel forever 😊
Awww yayyy! Moulin rouge is the best !!! And Aurora of course 💕💕 thank you x
Another great reaction so far. This album is special to me, it was released when I was in Bergen, Norway and it takes me back to walking along the harbour at 8am with my headphones on just enjoying the beauty of the city and music at once X

EEEEEE I CANT WAIITTTTT WHY U MAKE ME WAIT LIKE THAT ???? 🥺 but fr tho love ur content and cant wait for ur cover
ah i’m so excited! Cant wait to hear your thoughts on this album. especially In Bottles.. it’s one of my top 3. the production is so damn good.
whoa from the amount of effort u put into these videos I would assume you'd have a larger fanbase! Been lurking for a while but I've subscribed now; your content is just so chill
Thank you so much for the sub ! I’ve only just started reaction vids ( what I’ve wanted to do for ages ) in the last couple months , I had 146 subs two months ago 😂 ! Hopefully I continue to grow . Got such lovely people here so far and so glad you have subbed , I appreciate your kind words !
A different kind of human is my all time favorite! I feel the same, I think shes like the mother alien and she's inviting you home with her off this earth thats full of cruelty and shes gonna protect you 🥺❤
I'm soooo looking forward to this, Fern! You already know...
It's somehow validating seeing someone love something that you feel so close to. I'm excited for you 😁

Very nice reaction. So glad to see that you feel like a genuine AURORA fan now🙂.
Looking forward to the HAIK reaction!
I love how I forget how amazing daydreamer is and you just wanna yell and dance your absolute heart out
Animal was written in LA … hence the reflection on city life.
Interesting!! I didn’t realize it but I always thought it stuck out on the album because it was different from the other songs.
Late to the party but have my random comment anyway haha
A few months ago she organised some of her songs into themed compilations and would then do a UA-cam live talking about her choices and singing one of the songs. For her Stories compilation she sang A Different Kind of Human and explained the meaning behind it - it's for the people who leave too soon and for whom the world caused so much pain, and she imagined little creatures coming down and offering comfort and taking them to a safe place where they wouldn't feel that pain anymore.
The song hadn't really left a lasting impression on me previously but listening to her talk and then sing it made me break down crying in my shower lol because there was someone who'd been on my mind a lot and now I think of them when I hear the song, hoping they made it to that safer place
This comment is so rambling but I appreciate Aurora's artistry and this album so much and thank you for doing such a lovely reaction to it
I also love the lyric in Animal that goes "the weight upon my shoulders felt so divine...."
Saucy Aurora! I love how, despite her image as this pure innocent fairy being, she's also quite a sensual and sexual person. But she expresses it in such a cool and empowered way. It's why _some_ fans reaction to that side of her can be so....off putting. You know, the people who think it's their job to "protect her" innocence or something. Yuck. I bet the lyric in her song "Giving In To The Love" is directed precisely at those people....
*_"I want to live my life, be all of it's pages. And underline that I am not an angel. Cause if I'm not pure, I guess that I'm too much...."_*
Can we all just talk about how genius "Apple Tree" is. Like it's beautiful lyrics such as "just like the moon is a stone, but a star when it's dark" or "hunter is loud and predictable, scaring away every prey so they are gone before the hunter arrives". Also a quick vent, the lyric "Can you carry the weight of mortality" hits hard at least for me, because even though I have accepted death as a part of life and my body as a small part of the grand universe to eventually give back, it still hurts to be thrown into a world full of adventures and wonders, emotions both scarring and cherishable (idk if that's a word), to know that you can only experience just so much of it before you're gone😔. That wasn't very quick so thanks for reading it❤️❤️
I totally understand this and very much relate . Let’s hope we go somewhere else or come back in another form . I spend many nights thinking about this but I try come up with amazing fantasies to pull myself away from the fear . Amazing lyrics too , love Apple Tree !
the music video to apple tree is AWESOME
Another amazing reaction!!! I would have watched all one hour forty five minutes plus actually lol. I also found it interesting that my top three all time favorite songs of hers are on this album but only one made it to your top five lol. Really excited to see your reaction to the HAIK concert. I think you should also consider reacting to the full Nidarosdomen concert. It may very well be her very best!
You should react to her concert in Nidarosmen (Norway), its a religious experience
Before watching this, I just have to say I'm so glad that you are doing these reactions! You're a very likeable person :)
So fun seeing your happy smiling face through this … interesting that you lean towards some of the songs that I wasn’t so keen on but it helped me listen to them again from a different direction. Looking forward to Haik :-)
Aww thank you ! That’s what music is all about 💕
you are so amazing! auroras music and person really resonates with me and it’s beautiful to see others feel it as well! and something about your reactions is so genuine, you articulate your thought process in such a clear way, but the observations you make are always so smart and interesting :) I feel like I can just vibe with you on the same wavelength but also learn to see the songs in another perspective sometimes, it’s really nice. thank u for existing and doing what u do. I hope you have a wonderful day :)
This truly warms my heart , I appreciate every word ! Thank you , wonderful human 🌸💕
Took the words out of my mouth... can I join you two on the magic carpet ride?
Just love hear aurora songs with you, love from Brazil ❤️🇧🇷
Can't wait to see you listening to some live versions of these songs
I loved the reaction, Fern. Sorry I couldn't stay for the live chat earlier. But that just saved me a bit of pleasure before bedtime. I am really excited that you will do the Haik show and concert. It's too late now I guess, but I hope you realised that when the condensed concert starts in the show, you should stop and just shift to the extended concert. But we will see.
Yea. She makes us feel like we are welcome to join her world. And its so much better😀
YES! I've been checking your channel every day for a week now for this one! Can't wait! Have a lovely day, Fern!
great reaction Fern! really enjoy these!
I appreciate your watching !! truly !
LOVE THIS! LOVE THIS!❤ 👏🏻❤👏🏻❤👏🏻
Great reaction!! It's interesting to hear your opinions about the tracks.
Don't worry if you think you might not like an especific song, we are human and emotional beings and each of us can connect with things in different ways...or not connect at all. That is ABSOLUTELY VALID.
Definitely looking forward to more reactions.
You are one of my favourites.😊
girlie i love the makeup😻✋ and love you!
1- I Love you. Thank you for sharing all of your reaction, feeling, vibes and also you pine point some details that are cool in the music. 2- Plz never be afraid of our( as Aurora fan) reaction. If you don't like some songs or part or what ever it's ok, Aurora herself doesn't want to plz everyone, She said that their is a song for evryone and it's not evry song for evryone. Grab what you want, you need, that's all. 3- Now i think you realy begin to get Aurora... as you may know by now she is unic and so creative, so take a look at her video, she decide and designe and choose the color and choregraph and almost evrything. they are not some kind of commercial clip to hook ppl to the album, it her showing in a way what she want to comunicate in the song. they are realy cool and powerfull. (and they are some that i love and some that i don't ;-) ) i would recomande the seed, truely an experience and i personely love Queendom. 4- As i love Aurora and enjoye watching ppl discovering her, i've seen sooo many reaction about her, You are my favorit! The way you don't try to explain her technique (cuz she doesn't have any, she is a self taught in music and delevire all by instinc) You don't try to analyse the lyrics and give some meaning to it, you give your feeling, what you get from it and that is realy nice, and i love that you let yourself fly with her, guided by the beat and the waves they create. So Thank You! ( sorry it' too long and i'm french so not well writen but sorry not sorry ;-) ) and don't worry by the time laps, i could watch the all 1h 40 minutes xx
Also notice the very first track on the first album. Runaway.... take me home where i belong. Her albums are conected on hole other level
This album is so good. My favs are kind of a tie between Hunger, Soulless Creatures, and A Different Kind of Human. With The River and Apple Tree close behind. I was never super into Animal, tho it's not bad at all, but the pre-chorus....I adore.
The part that starts on the lyric _"I stand under headlights...."_
I love how it sorta switches to a half-time feel, and brings in these sizzling sparkly effervescent synth tones. So exciting....
Gosh, you don't get to tease us with titles like this one🤧
This girl always coming in with the looks. DAMN😍
Hey Beautiful so here you are again...so good to see you huh
What do you say, did I mention this before? So Aurora really knows how to make good freaking music, oh yes she does...and she makes this very special kind of music you can listen and feel in your mind in your soul in your heart and physically you get the chills from the tip of your hair to the tip of your toes, yes it moves inside you and off course, you know what she is talking about cause you've been there before and you keep going to that place, you fucking know what she's saying cause she is talking about you......and she makes you smile, shed a little tear but she's not letting you down no you feel so good you don't want it to end...More people should be able to find her and this could certainly become a much better place to live. I know the feeling........ and the goosebumps......we're lucky Sweet Fern! Great reaction, holy holy awesome!!!
Ah I just finished watching it, Hunger is so underrated; sadly she hasn't played it live. This is also my #1 Aurora album... its so good! Also Aurora said In Bottles is connected to In Boxes from her 1st album! Just a fun folk-tale storytelling song. so good.
Mothership in MAX volume give me CHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIILS
The Seed is top tier, not surprised that you fell in love with it
Your favorite in the video became no 4 when editing was finished. That makes sense, in time every song will have rotated around everywhere and you forget what is top and what is bottom of your list. Thanks for sharing your interesting reactions, I enjoy them so much every time ❤
Hahaha so so true ! Thank you ☀️☀️
REALLY enjoyed watching you react to this one... such a great album! And you have such amazing energy. SoOoOOo enjoyable spending time with both you and Aurora.
I love all the albums. It's mood dependent for me which songs from which album I listen to. There's an Aurora song for every mood me thinks.
I can't believe that you are still to explore her live performances. You think the albums were good. They will take on a whole new meaning when you watch her live. Songs you didn't think you liked so much will become your favourites... if you give them a chance. :)
I’ve watched her live KEXP performance , I loved it ! There’s a video too . I’ve watched a couple others too ! Thank you so much btw ☀️
I love the wig, that hairstyle is very nice and I love the color!
Regarding maybe not liking the album, I just watched another reactor listen to the album. Some songs he loved, but others he was quite dismissive about, a bit aggressively so, even (he is Spanish, so...). But my point is, he received nothing but love in the comments despite that. So don't worry. Besides, I had no doubts since I saw you listen to the first album, that you would like them progressively better as we went along. No doubt at all, based on the elements you liked then. Also, you can only fall deeper in love with Aurora.
The visuals for the music video of The River and The Seed is so frickin good, I hope you watch it if you haven't already.
Great make up for a a great person.love your wig/hair choice
Mothership is like listening to your Mother singing to you from inside the womb.
I always love your Aurora reactions! I’m so happy that you loved this album so much!
Ok but can we talk about your eye makeup for a second , goshh it's so beatiful!! . i would really love for you to react to Imogen Heap's album "Speak for Yourself" , i've been watching a lot of your reactions and i think you're gonna love this one 💕
I would say that you feel what you feel, and only you can decide what your impression of things are. I often would like reactors to like things that I love, but if they don't I usually just move on to the next reactor. I can count on one hand the times I've used the option to dislike a video or a response. It's just so unnessecary. You always have well reasoned arguments for why you like or dislike something, and that is something that commands respect. I think you should always be yourself, and hopefully not care to much about what other people think. This is some advice I need to tell myself too, quite often actually.
Aurora, the Viking Queen of Vestland.
And btw, Hunger is my favorite too, like the best oooo
Omg you're reaction to The Seed and Churchyard on the last album is everything! 😂 that's literally how I felt when I heard those songs for the first time hahah my fav songs on this album are:
The Seed
Animal
The River
Apple Tree/In Bottles (can't decide 😂)
Daydreamer
Can't wait to watch your reaction to watching The Seed live and HAIK 😍😍😍
hahah I get so crazy on those songs !! Thanks for watching !! :D Amazing top songs
Just a little heads up btw, Marina's new album is getting released 11th June 😉😉😉 new album react maybs? 😂
Honestly , yes !!
i just had the same reaction in the seed LOL
Love the eyeshadow. It’s Pronounced Hike. And means the same I believe :-).
Dance on the moon live is a must. Seriously. The exist for love session. I only heard that version first but it's amazing. The studio version does nothing for me. Apple tree is so amazing ,the video is awesome and Daydreamer just makes you feel good inside, the video is great. Also, lady of my heart, a verve fan. I love them! For a sad but powerful song, Little Boy In The Grass Mahogany session is freaking amazing. She makes you feel her pain,
I always encourage watching the live versions, but for Animal you *need* to watch the videoclip - it's a whole other side of Aurora and it's freaking gorgeous. Also, a good reminder that Norway is not just forests and mountains and she's also very much into the rave culture there xD
(BTW, "Haik" is pronounced like the english "hike", and means the same (aka giving someone a car hike/ride))
Just want to say that I love your reactions. Can't wait to see HAIK. Would be awesome if you could react to "Once Aurora" sometime, you really get an insight into Aurora as a person, her struggles and her determination. It can be rented/bought on Vimeo. Though there may be more of a copyright issue with that, so I guess you'd have to do what TV/film reactors do. I'd definitely recommend watching it, even if you're not reacting to it.
Here are all the Aurora documentaries (sans HAIK):
Into the Light (2015): ua-cam.com/video/3AbrDWIwBO4/v-deo.html
Nothing Is Eternal (2016): ua-cam.com/video/4vdBorK67tk/v-deo.html
Once Aurora (2018): vimeo.com/ondemand/onceaurora
No no. I'm not flattering unnecessarily .......... Damn who cares, you look amazing Fern. I always miss your live broadcasts. Too much gardening I think. 2 hours late I'm watching you now. Ok! Have now checked this and you are my favorite AURORA listener. However, I am not entirely with you that it is the best record. But that is what is so good about all the three "records" they are so different. I think this record is a bit scattered and I get more emotional from the first and the second. But it's really just little things, all the records are masterpieces in my opinion. But like I said, I'm sold on your reactions. Take care of yourself now !!! .... Look at this one. i think you are worth it. She is so precious Aurora - Nature Boy (acapella) - Melkweg-Amsterdam-The Netherlands 2018-02-28 ua-cam.com/video/1-LtCbPUoTM/v-deo.html
What a lovely and kind thing to say !!! Of course , and exactly they are all so different . I actually totally understand how the first two felt more emotional . Oooh I can’t wait to watch nature boy , I love that song so much . Thank you again 💕
@@FernStone Sorry but i have no filter ;-) This one you see what an talented performer she is ....in all ways!!
This is Aurora for you. You start listening to her and you think "wow this song is amazing this is the best thing of art I've ever heard nothing can top this in a million years". And then you listen to the next song.
But on a more serious note. You are not obligated in any way to like any particular song. This is what reactions are for. There are no people without a sin and as much as it hurts me to say this but Aurora is no exception. I would personally prefer honest opinion over anything else. If anyone will try to belittle you for it he is not a true fan of Aurora at best and not a good person at worst.
I'd rather prefer you'd listen to 10 songs and wont like a couple then you not listening to them at all out of fear. Since you will miss out on 8 song you will like.
really enjoyed this reaction!! And so pleased you love Apple Tree!!
LOVED THIS REACTION ~A+ GIRL...KEEP EM' COMIN...
You're mighty good, hope you know it. And HAIK is pronounced like hike!! Looking very much forward to that. And you should watch the HAIK documentary before reacting to the HAIK concert. Such a gem!!
Yes +1
DAMN I JUST SAW THE DESCRIPTION AND LIKE WOW THESE TOP THREE ARE SO UNDERRATED I LOVE IT !!!!!🤪🤪
Great reaction. So many different dimensions to the music on this album it’s not possible to pick a favourite. Will look forward to the Haik (rhymes with Bike I think?) documentary and concert react and your cover when it’s ready. Meanwhile hold on tight on your journey with Aurora.
You are SO beautiful in this video!!!!! Love your makeup love the reaction love Aurora❤❤❤❤
Thank you , so kind 💕💕💕💕
She's the new Kate Bush.
Like SO mutch to listen to your reaction ! You have so strong, varm energi . No fuss, only your personality ! Best from a 60 year old woman from Bergen Norway
Thank you so much ☺️ so glad 🌸
the seed live is really amazingggg
Looks like your "tickled pink" by what you heard, great reactions and commentaries. Your talkativeness is so well appropriate and entertaing. Good show, thanks.
New sub! Love your whole vibe and your reaction to her, also your make up and wig is gorgeous ❤
You're so underrated, please more subs for this woman!!
Thank you wonderful !! So close to 1000 now !! I only started reaction vids in March , so glad I did as I have wanted to for so long and finally built up the courage to do so ! One of the best decisions I have made :D
@@FernStone Yes, you are so good at reacting, I realy love your Aurora videos!
Love this reaction.also nice headphones hopes this one doesn't hurt your hair anymore
You are gorgeous! LOVE THE CRAZY COLORS!!!!!
Thank you so much 💕🌸
I think you’ll like “The River - live in Bergen”. She makes a very different take on the song and it is really beautiful! I cry every time!
Actually she will be releasing a new album this year so would be fun to do a live listen session :-)
That’s such a good idea 😃😃
I'm excited for her new album
@All my demons greeting me as a friend I heard someone said that maybe in the fall. Or when aurora. Feels like it
@All my demons greeting me as a friend I heard someone said that maybe in the fall. Or when aurora feels like it
I'm a huge fan but I'd never think bad of anyone if they didn't like a song if it wasn't to their style, I totally get that!! Theres a few songs by other artists I love I don't particularly like as much so it's all good ❤
I have only one comment to your work: fantastic!
Okay, i can't breathe
I thought for sure you'll put a different kind of human on your favorite since you seem to like mystical things but it's ok . I hope it grows in you after a while
Honestly I nearly chose it as a fav !! It was so hard to pick favs and these are just for right now ! My favourites change over time 💕💕
@@FernStone to tell u the truth I feel the same because on my initial listen I didn't get into dance on the moon and hunger ,. Soulless creatures . But then as I keep vmcoming back i liked the tree but end up not liking in bottles so.... Its ok
@@ghenardinvento604 yeah exactly ! Some songs develop over time 🌸
There you are. Missed you.
please more more more react to aurora. LOVE U ❤❤❤
Check THE SEED live at I CANT BREATHE concert supporting Black Lives Matter.. Aurora is going wild and heavy in that performance..
28:43 You're so in the mood that a light orb passed floating between you and the camera, maybe Buddha really was there :) (Could just be dust but I prefer the magical explanation)
Btw I was already missing your reactions, maybe you should make a Patreon and post react to the music videos there so youtube doesn't try to copyright it?
Also, you're such a magical person I feel like I'm your friend for ages just from watching your videos :)
About in bottles:
Aurora also has a song from her first ep called "In boxes" that song is about a woman that goes hunting for men, then she kills them and stay with their bodies as a company for some time than she picks a piece of the body and keep under her bed as a souvenir (Aurora said "She loves in a different way") On my opinion In bottles on the same universe as in boxes about the same lady but from the perspective of the men she killed as if their ghosts watching her sleep and telling her to hide them under her spine (under the bed)
but auroras music can mean what ever you want and that's the fun about it, That's just the way I see it
Thank you so much for another great reaction! Make sure that you react to the documentary first. Haik in norwegian means to get a lift,
Hey, mister. Glad to "see" you. 😊
@@joaomjguerreiro wow ,that was a pleasant surprise! Hope everything is ok with you!
I am actually a bit surprised you didn't recognize Nature Boy in the first album, if your favorite movie is Moulin Rouge! :) I love that movie also.
Oh yeah , I realised I never reacted to Nature Boy as I was worried the reaction would be too long ! I'm going to do it soon though :) I love that song.
Hi Fern, your a true W&W now☺️
Fun fact, you and Aurora have something in common. Guess you got lots in common but you both say... If that make sense. ALOT.
Watch her interviews and you'll see🤣🤣🤣
Btw, my name in english is Stone😊
And im soft inside😁
Keep it up, will watch your Aurora journey. Check out some of her concerts in the future😍
Hahahah ! I definitely say that a lot ! I speak before I think, straight from the heart so sometimes I worry it doesn’t make sense 😂 that’s awesome 😊 definitely.
