@@ashlenamusic The Nidarosdomen versions of Under Stars and Little Boy in the Grass are jaw dropping. That's how I first came across them. When I finally listened to the studio versions...they felt a wee bit flat tbh. But that's only because those live versions are perfect by comparison. Her very first TV performance, where she sings Awakening, is pretty cool tho! You can definitely hear in that song the vibes she would later perfect. It's a pretty lovely song...and lyrically a dark little fable. And Aurora looks....way more normcore and conventional than she ever looked afterwards lol.
Gurl !! you know I agree with every single word you just said. As a 68 year old woman I haven't been that passionate about any particular artist or band since my teens, Aurora changed all of that for me. She is the best of the best, outstanding in her field, no one comes near her. Thanks for this awesome reaction and I hope your baby girl feels better soon.
I AM crying! This was the video that first introduced me to Aurora. My friend had posted it and I was instantly mesmerized by this magical creature. I watched her performance of The Seed from this same session, then the Nobel performances, and then every-frickin-thing-I-could-find!
Your view of Aurora is spot-on. She is the exemplification of "Living your best life" . That's her attraction, we should all strive to be living our best lives.
Yes indeed, I cried at each of her concerts that I was so fortunate to see in Australia earlier this year. This is such a gorgeous and majestic cover!! It was my top vote for the ‘Like a Version’ competition.
They sure were. I only discovered Aurora two months ago and I am hooked. And I am a solid full-blown heavy metal fan. but I've seen numerous live videos on UA-cam. Silja and Magnus and Aurora definitely had an energy that was indescribable.
@@j.dsimpson8142 That's awesome! I've seen many metal fans on UA-cam become Aurora fans. Reactors who do almost all metal reactions, who check out Aurora, and become hooked. And conversely, Aurora is a metal fan, so I guess there's some synchronicity there!
@@j.dsimpson8142 old school metal head here, and yeah Aurora is amazing, and she has said she is a fan of Mastodon, Gojira, System of a Down, and has attended Metallica shows, she is a Gem.
And THIS is why record companies hitting channels like this with copyright strikes is beyond absurd.... It's like they think people are using reaction channels to listen to the actual songs...as if that's how people enjoy full songs. Reaction channels, especially the good ones, make NEW fans...draw new people to an artist. It's literally free advertising....and yet they go after such channels. So weird. The music industry, historically, is SO bad at recognizing new cool (and lucrative) trends until it's far too late. Ok....that's my rant lol. ;P
@@avedic it's getting absurd, if artists get traded as goods between the major labels in different countries. that's also a reason. why in certain countries. official videos get blocked. money drives the world nuts.
As always ❤ my Aurora Tuesday and once again ❤ your reactions to her. A big shout out to the other members of her band on this version absolutely beautiful. Can’t wait till next week’s selection ❤
Another great Aurora reaction, Ashlena! It's just crazy what she can do with these covers (never mind her own fantastic songs). Just an amazing talent. (Great band here supporting her, too.) I really like what you said about Aurora at the end, about how special she is, not just as an artist, but also as a person. You're absolutely right, there's no one like her and never will be. 🦄
Hi Ashlena...so glad you liked this cover...some of my favorite videos of AURORA are interviews and with her just chatting or interacting with fans between songs...2 such interviews are from 'like a version'... both are hilarious to watch....
Superb and sublime. Absolutely outstanding performance! When I found Aurora years ago it was with her cover of Life on Mars. I find it mind blowing how she creates such achingly beautiful music so consistently. She makes the world a much better place to be.
Aurora is a gem. I like some of her other covers more, but it is great of course and also better then original for me. Beautiful Aurora voice and beautiful harmonies (I miss Silja and Magnus too). Thank you for reaction and I wish the little one a speedy recovery!
That was a nice start of the day 😊Love The Beatles, but never listened to this one much. Aurora's version on the other hand... As for harmonies, I think the PNC LIve Studio Session version of "A Dangerous Thing" is great, even without SIlja. "Aurora x Pomme - Live on RHYTHM BY MODZIK" is another gem, with Aurora and Pomme performing "Everything Matters".
This PNC Live Studio Session is wonderful. It's smiling, and so peaceful. As it's an acoustic setting, so rather stripped, and some tempos have been slowed down, her voice is so highlighted, just haunting (and "a Temporary high" is cool too). Rhaaaaaa, what a voice!!!😍 Even if not in Glasgow, it's a great show!😀 Hum, I know you know... 🙃 sorry for rambling, and have a great day, then...🙂 I guess I know already what I will do (listen to?) just now...
@@Josian-ps7fb Hehe, yes I love that Glasgow show! The one I return to the most these days. I like the PNC one a lot as well though, and especially this version of "A Dangerous Thing". Agree on "A Temporary High" for sure! Definitely prefer the stripped melancholy version. Have a good one! 😄
Ah, Aurora and covers... Here again, she takes the song apart, and puts it back together in her own way. From what exists, she makes a gorgeous ring, and adds her own part of beauty as a gem, setting it there, so to speak. Her musician mates are wonderful here, and the result is much more than a simple addition, everything one does enhances what the others do, it's really awesome. Such a pure and marvelous jewel, this musical ride across the universe... Anyway, thank you for this great and kind reaction to Aurora, this endearing phenomenon, this amazing musical jeweler.🙂👍
Since you loved more vocal studio versions, you need to check out Aurora at Christines radio festival. Its a unplugged consert of three songs, one J. Smith cover La-la-la and two originals. Love it.
She is so unique. 🙂 Never get bord of listening to her. here a link to Warrior live acoustic and she explained what is the song about ;-) Thank you, and happy to know your doing better.
I agree with you that this is better than the Beatles original version, which although beautiful, was never a favorite of mine and just doesn’t reach the sublime level that Aurora and her band do in this version (and a particular nod to both Silja and Magnus’ backup vocals). The most striking thing is at the end, when Aurora adds the lyrics “are you going to save our world” and then “I am going to save my world” before going back to “nothing’s going to change my world” one last time. As always, a call to action and a personal promise to herself not to give up on making the world a better place.
@@johncrossacevedo1014 Yes, I agree that the great John Lennon was the spirit and soul of this song, but I think Aurora brings an emotional resonance to the song that was missing a little in the Beatles’ original.
Thank you Ash for this beautiful Aurora Tuesday session....this cover is absolutely stunningly beautiful. Always enjoy Aurora Tuesday's at Ashlena's.....🥰🥰
Hii!❤ I want you to know you're my favorite Aurora reactor(:, I'm so thankful you're still reacting to her also I'd like to request for the devil is human!❤
My recommendation to a reaction is "A touch of the divine". Fantastic peace of art! Singing, dancing, poetry för 24 minutes. There is even a version of the same piece where she speaks for five minutes before the work of art starts. No one has reacted to this, so you could be the first!
Hello, dear Ashlena ! And yet another gem from Aurora.... "Across the Universe" is truly one of her most beautiful and magical covers. And yes, the original version by the Beatles is no comparison to it. I totally agreee with everything yiou said about the cover. But I loved your thoughts and words right after that... this is what reaction channels are all abolut, or what they SHOULD be about ! Spreading music around the world, sharing one's love for a special artist or band with others, discovering new artists and bands.... butt the most beatufiul thing you said, was : "If I succeeded in making someone a fan of Aurora, The Warning, Jinjer, etc, then I know it was the right thing to continue making these videos." You couldnÄ't have said it any better, dear Ashlena ! And your love for this channel is second to none, since you really care about your subscibers and patreons and their requests, and react to them, although you are sick. Hats off to you for that ! And soon I will be joining your patreons and support you and your channel as well. Believe me, I have so many different artists and bands for you to discover and explore... all kinds of different music styles and songs. So you recently mentioned you wanted to make a special reaction day with only new bands and artists once a week, right ? So with me, you will have the chance to discover a lot of them, until the next year, at least, if not longer. So please stay safe, stay honest, stay as you are, and continue making us subscribers so happy with all your beautiful reaction videos. Sending much love for you from Germany : Your fan and almost patreon Gerry
I agree with everything you said 🤗 Beautiful version by Aurora, which I’m pretty sure John Lennon would’ve loved❤️ Lennon wasn’t satisfied with the “Across the Universe” production. He didn’t like it when it was finished in early 1968, and he didn’t like the mix that appeared on Nothing’s Gonna Change Our World. But he still thought the song was one of his best, telling Rolling Stone in 1970: “It’s one of the best lyrics I’ve written. In fact, it could be the best. It’s good poetry, or whatever you call it, without chewin’ it. See, the ones I like are the ones that stand as words, without melody. They don’t have to have any melody, like a poem, you can read them.” Many are saying they miss Magnus and Silja, I do too, but I also miss Fredrik on guitar, he’s a great musician and backup vocalist too❤️ See you next week Ashlena🥰🥰
it would be fun, if you would include reactions to her quotes in your official tuesday reaction. you can find them on youtube if you search for aurora quotes. it's collected by youtuber rob for, who cuts them in short pieces with link to the origin. there are over 500 now. an enormous work for the archive. p.s.: there is a very similar cover version, which is, believe it or not, even on par with auroras from the artist group 'laibach'. it's just way older.
@@ashlenamusic all my answers get deleted instantly. i try to send you the link below. and they are really short. maybe you should ask rob for for permissions - but i guess he/she/it will be ok with it. you have the right intentions.
I had to double check you had not done it yet - but her cover of David Bowie's 'Life on Mars' is one of my favorites she has ever performed. ua-cam.com/video/kJ095S0MmnA/v-deo.html
Not better than the original but amazing cover. This cover lost the self reflection feeling of the song but their cover made it a like having a mystical feeling.

ua-cam.com/video/7qDb0-8jhe0/v-deo.html This is a better version. Includes her dedication and includes a playful ending. The suprise is, at the end, a real Easter Egg ending.
Wonderful yes, but would she have been able to sing this song in the first place had it not been created by others? The creating, the writing, that's the hard part --- making something sound more pretty or aesthetically pleasing is easy after the fact --- lots of artists have done that --- the original was recorded over half a century ago --- of course it's easier to _do it better._ It's just the way modern audiences are wired. This is why most people today would prefer a color remake of an old black and white film regardless of the quality --- it just has to be new and look or sound pretty, that's enough for them. Of course there is no doubting that this rendition of _Across the Universe_ is stunningly beautiful, ethereal and of high quality --- what else would you expect from _Aurora?_ But let's be thankful _The Beatles_ wrote and released it in the first place, otherwise, we would not be here experiencing this amazing performance.
It’s already better? Then the Beatles? Look I love your channel and this is great. But there is no way in heaven hell or earth this is better than the Beatles.
I would hope it was better, life would be so boring if things never improved right? But yeah this is better and I think it would have gotten the seal of approval from the band if they were still all here. 🥲

Human history spans Millions of years. As relating to Artist, I feel very fortunate to be living on this Earth at the same time period as Aurora.
Yes, me too, so glad she is here during our lifetime.
Same here
She does the best covers of any artist period!You have to see her live at some point, the energy she gives off is wild.
I would be honoured
Sometimes I wonder what i appreciate more, her singing or her ability to tell a story. I suppose they are inseparable.
They definitely are

The creating, the writing, that's the hard part --- making something sound more pretty or aesthetically pleasing is easy after the fact --- lots of artists have done that --- the original was recorded over half a century ago --- of course it's easier to _do it better._ It's just the way modern audiences are wired. This is why most people today would prefer a color remake of an old black and white film regardless of the quality --- it just has to be new and look or sound pretty, that's enough for them. Of course there is no doubting that this rendition of _Across the Universe_ is stunningly beautiful, ethereal and of high quality --- what else would you expect from _Aurora?_ But let's be thankful _The Beatles_ wrote and released it in the first place, otherwise, we would not be here experiencing this amazing performance.
Oh i am super thankful for the beatles don't get me wrong.
It's not possible to do a ''Beatles'' song better than ''Beatles'' doing ''Beatle'' song's
Agree to Disagree
You’re not gonna listen to the Beatles again? You do know without John Lennon writing this song she could never of covered this song.
I never listen to the Beatles in the first place.
NOT better! Different and excellent!
Agreed!
It’s already better? Then the Beatles? Look I love your channel and this is great. But there is no way in heaven hell or earth this is better than the Beatles.
Fair enough!
This is amazing but there’s no way it’s better than the Beatles.
I think it is
Technically this is better, but the style of the original is so different that it's really hard to compare. Personally I find this a bit boring.
No, she did it worse.
😒
No… not better. Not even close to John singing it. Sorry
Don’t be sorry you are allowed to have your own opinion
I would hope it was better, life would be so boring if things never improved right?
But yeah this is better and I think it would have gotten the seal of approval from the band if they were still all here. 🥲
Agreed
