AURORA - The Gods We Can Touch | Full Album Reaction

[@RommerskirchenFrank]

About Disney.... she did. In Frozen 2 she was the voice of the spirit in INTO THE UNKNOWN. Later she recorded the whole song in her style. And of course it's beautiful.

[@ashlenamusic]

I definitely need to hear that

[@RommerskirchenFrank]

@@ashlenamusic yesssss

[@walterF205]

Still Disney but with a different tone, Dumbo by Tim Burton, 2019. Listen to Aurora in her version of Baby Mine. Too bad it was not used in the film because "not suitable / strange for the sensitivity of children" (???)

[@ashlenamusic]

LMAO that is hilarious considering Disney films all have hidden messages.

[@TheOnlyOpie]

​@@walterF205it's probably on the album, but they wanted that song specifically for the trailer, still a good song tho. She's done several songs for movies and shows now, Scarborough Fair, Secret Garden, Life on Mars, Midas Touch, Hunting Shadows. There's even a version of Murder Song for the movie Detour, appropriately labeled the 2016 Detour Movie Mix

[@15arael]

I highly recommend "Potion For Love (Live) | Vevo Studio Performance" as Aurora made it as a contrast to "Exist for Love" (celebration of love) "Potion for Love" is for lost love.

[@troedelgerry]

Oh yes, I second that, Ashlena !

[@emmadoggy]

On "Everything Matters" the backing vocals and French portion are performed by French singer, Pomme.

[@lillm6874]

[@RommerskirchenFrank]

About Artemis. She is a Greek goddess of hunting and agriculture... and that's the concept of the whole album. All songs are supposed to referring to a God... some are obvious, some are a bit constructed... thats where the title comes from also. God's we can touch. Before the Greek gods went to the Olymp, they lived among people. The concept of a ruling God, apart from the creation is a very monotheistic idea. Like the Jewish, Islam and Christian religion...

[@ashlenamusic]

Thanks doll for this! I know nothing of Greek gods lol

[@dansegelov305]

Nobody is ever prepared for a 16 bar, face-melting accordion solo! The gods we can touch is reference to the idea that the gods of the ancient world were much more involved in human life, lived among us and were much more 'human' in their appetites and flaws. But then, as new religions were formed, god was removed and placed further away from us, out of our reach up in heaven. Each song on this album was written with a 'patron' god in mind, of the ancient Greek pantheon. The most obvious being the song directly named for Artemis, the virgin goddess of the hunt, animals, women and childbirth. Some others, Exist for love - Aphrodite, the goddess of love. The blood in the wine - Dionysus, The god of wine and revelry.

[@mendiganina6001]

Love your comment, but I have to correct that the instrument is a bandoneon. Still face-melting tho! Was actually kinda shocked the first time I heard that, since where I live it's very traditional, so I investigated and it turns out Glorvigen, the Norwegian man that played that part, spent several years studying tango both in Paris and in my city, Buenos Aires, so that's a personal +20 from me to both him and Aurora lol.

[@ashlenamusic]

That is so interesting!!! Thanks for sharing that!

[@ashlenamusic]

@mendiganina6001 ooooo interesting! Definitely looking up that instrument

[@GhostlyEcheveria]

I can't wait for you to see the official video for "Exist for Love". The video somehow makes the song even more stunning. It's just perfection. Also, the Vevo performance of "Heathens". She does a gorgeous tribal vocal run that is pushed pretty far back in the studio mix.

That album is amazing

[@dulcealvarez6071]

45:40 the thing with aurora is that each album is or is part of a chapter, stages you have to pass to be a different kind of human and get to where you belong (queendom) with "all my demons greeting me as a friend" you face your demons and learn from them with infections of a different kind is when you start changing from the inside in a micro level you get "infected " with a different kind of human is focus on the macro level changes, you become a different kind of human who wants to make the world we live in a better place and finished with mothership when you actually being taken to "home" to where you would be love and accepted for who you are the gods we can touch is the spirituality of the journey as I interpreted once she got all her warriors and weirdos at home she start questioning the way spirituality had put us down and how the divinity is all around us in nature in the love between each other, that no matter our differences we don't need a cure of what make us us the outro must likely will connect the gods we can touch to the next chapter

[@ashlenamusic]

Ahhh that is so cool thanks for sharing

[@dulcealvarez6071]

​@ashlenamusic thanks, she is cool, she actually said that she is making an album that will be release when she passes away and she'll take one song that is meaningful for each decade of her life and save it for that album to be released, she already have 2 songs of that album kinda sad that I'm a bit older than her and might not be able to listen to that album

[@Einyen]

There are 2 more songs from this album and 1 song related to it: "Potion For Love" is a "sister" song to Exist For Love but about lost love instead. It was released on the B-side of the vinyl single for "Cure For Me", but was later released as a single, there is a beautiful Vevo live version. "The Woman I Am" and "The Devil Is Human" was only on the vinyl version of the album, but was later released as singles. The latter one has no live version yet, but "The Woman I Am" has a great Vevo live version, and also another live version on her main channel from a TV show "Gullruten", the Vevo version is best imo. Everything Matters has 2 live versions with both Aurora and Pomme the best one is called "Live on Rhythm by Modzik". Heathens and Exhale Inhale and A Temporary High also has Vevo versions and the latter one is a beautiful acoustic version I think you will love, since you are not into the 80s sound. Exist For Love and Cure For Me and Giving In To The Love has music videos.

[@Oldperson-wt3ui]

I love your reactions, your joy and your honesty is awesome. I pretty much agree with you on all the songs but Temporary High, I suggest the live Vevo performance, it doesn't make you want to dance which you desired, but it is a slower version and really very beautiful. So glad you loved the album, isn't she the most unique artist ever? Her song writing is exceptional, the words, the music, so fantastic. Super excited for you to start your journey on her live performances, looking forward to it, maybe a whole fan favorite concert, Haik? 2018 KEXP? Nidarosdomens? Can't wait 🥰🥰

That was awesome watching you enjoy this album, and listening to it with you. I'm so glad you loved it as much as you did, though I also appreciate your honesty about the tracks you weren't crazy about. I'm with you on the '80s vibe of "Temporary High." The live acoustic versions are much better. I do love the odd piano in "The Innocent," though. Favorite songs for me are probably "Everything Matters," "Exist for Love," "Exhale Inhale" and "Artemis." Recommendations: "Everything Matters" - Live at Modzik, featuring Pomme (absolute perfection) "Cure for Me" - music video (you're going to LOVE it) "Exist for Love" - music video (absolutely gorgeous) "Exhale Inhale" - Live at Vevo (insane performance and production) "Artemis" - Live at Stavanger Concert Hall, with orchestra (I believe this is the only live performance of this song, and it is fantastic!)

Hello! Late to this and it was so fun to be with you on this. I love this album but for me are the popy tracks little to many. I know that there are many out there who love this songs but i have opinion to... My favourite is Exhale, Inhale. So deep lyrics and the music is for me soul music. Perhaps is "This could be a dream" Auroras most underrated song and I think your interpretation is clever and beautiful. I love the warmth and emotions in this song. I agree for most of the time on your reaction. Thanks for this and i see ya soon.

Well, all has already been written in all these numerous comments, but anyway. I don't know why, but when I hear "Cure for me" (album version), it makes me think of Mylène Farmer. I don't really know why, they are quite different, but there's something in the sound of this song (brain and its weird associations of ideas)... I look forward to your future reactions to (hopefully) some acoustic and stripped down versions of some of this these songs (most are really awesome and mind blowing, as are the ones of "Temporary High", that are hauntingly beautiful). Et comme toute règle a ses exceptions, pour "Everything matters", j'espère que tu choisiras le "live on RYTHM BY MODZIK"" plutôt que la version guitare acoustique, car l'évolution de l'instrumentation dans la chanson amène une variation musicale que la guitare seule ne parvient pas à égaler, malheureusement. Anyway, back to english: thank you for this really nice reaction to beloved Aurora, and her continuous artistic growth.🙂👍

[@troedelgerry]

Hi Ashlena ! Thanks so much foe reacting to this masterpiece of an album ! To be honest, when I first heard this album, I didn't like many of the songs, so I heard it more often to kind of "get used" to it. But now, together with you, I finally love this album as much as I love Aurora's other studio albums.., although she is stll much better live ! So after hearing all studio albums, what are you going to do next ? Live performances, I guess... and the best way to start this jpurney, is to begin with Aurora's best and most beautiful concert EVER : Live at Nidarosdomen ! You could practically react to this whole concert, simply because it's magical from beginning to end. But if you want to choose one special song from this concert, please start with "Lucky (Live at Nidarosdomen)" ! And don't forget, she wrote this song at the age of 9 years ! And the lyrics are so deep and meaningful... this song is considered her "anti-suicide-song"... and it's - besides all the other 11 songs - hauntingly beautiful in its arrangement and its interpretation (acoustically AND visually !) But it would be better, of course, when you react to the whole concert. 58 minutes of magic, beauty and perfection in every way possible... acousticaly AND visually. Believe me, Ashlena, you will not regret having put all the effort into this long reaction video. You will be speechless and mesmerized... just like me and everybody else, who has reacted to this concer already. Best wishes from Germany : Gerry

Probably, and though its hard to decide, my favorite album of hers. Not only for the songs but the inspirations, she's like going on a rollercoaster of music genres inside the same genre, goes from experimenting with 80's tunes (and even video) for A Temporary High, to swimming with 30's vibes for Exist For Love, A Little Place Called the Moon, and not to forget A Potion For Love, a song that comes from another version of this album. And then, when I thought I heard everything, she drops me freaking tango in Artemis! Can't just help but love her. Was waiting for this reaction!

On "exhale inhale", listen to the duration of the exhale and then the inhale. You will realise that exhale is shorter than inhale. This is because when we exhale, we give out carbon. Hence giving less carbon to mother earth but take in more corbon for mother earth.

There is an acoustic version of A Temporary High that you might like more! Also the vinyl has some different tracks not on the digital album but that have since been released and I highly recommend listening to them too! one I think you'll love is A Potion For Love which she has a really good vevo performance of and the song is the flipside to Exist for love being how she felt when a love that filled her whole being left. Also Aurora doesn't speak french, Pomme, a French artist was featured on EveryThing Matters. Pomme is an amazing artist who is influenced by Aurora, Lana Del Rey and Chanson music and has a stunning voice so I recommend listening to her latest album "Consolation" even just in your own time if ur too busy to react.

My top favorite song from this album is probably Everything Matters (of course more favorites here). For me some song changed "positions" in my personal ranking with time, but this one is always on top :). It is very poetic and it sounds great. And as with every Aurora album whole album is just amazing. I think this album is really versatile with very different sounds and styles. This whole album is inspired by Greek mythology and every song has connected gods with it. And Artemis is one of goddess. Thx for reaction! Ps. Funny thing I like the piano in The Innocent song it gives me crazy pianist vibe :). Ps2. French part is Pomme (first other singer on her album although she has cooprations on others albums), but she also singed it in French live. She has also last part of the cover Partisan in French.

[@ashlenamusic]

Thanks for watching! And yes everything matters might also be my favourite from this album xx

a little place called the moon is by far the most beautiful song i've ever heard in my life

[@celinel9750]

The inspiration for the full album are the Gods, more from the ancient greek and rome, you can find some entreview she gave and explaine wich god goes for each song. She co-produce the full album and touch evry single aspect of it. She love being in studio and take hours for each detail. Great reaction. Now let's watch those live concert 🙂

Oh, Ashlena, Everything Matters is featuring a French singer called Pomme. Aurora sings with her live in French but I don’t know if she really speaks the language

[@ashlenamusic]

Cute that her name is apple

Welcome to the AURORA Universe … a welcoming and sometimes scary place (earlier work a bit more dangerous) … that said many surprises await 🙂🦋🐚✨

Every thing about this album is a banger. It's excellent. 10/10.

Agreed!

Ashlena: “what is this album?!” 👁️👄👁️

[@maxsteiner1964]

You really gonna love her video for Exist for Love.

[@ashlenamusic]

Can't wait

[@bri7555]

Artemis is heavily influenced by Argentine tango, and as an Argentine, it's really amazing to see a goddess like Aurora take inspiration from the traditional music of my country.😊🇦🇷

[@sebprzr]

Is your favorite Disney movie Beauty and the Beast? I'm taking a guess from the lyrics in Blood in the Wine

[@ashlenamusic]

Yup :)

[@zontzooit2415]

Idk how to explain it but her first album All my demons feels very Norwegian, winter, eroupean, cold, in a winter woods❄️🦌🌫️ Her second album(and ep) feels very tribal, athmespheric, nature, spiritual, jungle, summer 🌞🪼🦋🔥🌺 This album feels super… lovely, I get French and Italian vibes if that makes sense? Romantic, angelic, 🌹🪽🏛️💕🍷

[@ashlenamusic]

That makes complete sense, and I think you put it perfectly

17:43 was my exact reaction going through this album for the first time.

[@SociableAlarm]

I dont know if youll see this but in regards to copywrite and all that, Aurora has been wonderful with the reviewing community and tends to not strike anyone.

[@ashlenamusic]

Yes I’ve only been striked once on her all my demons album which I reuploaded and edited it… but still no monetization which is ok!

[@TomTomson81]

Blood in the wine reminds you of a movie. An old western called The Good, The Bad and The Ugly. This is a musical reference to this film.

[@ashlenamusic]

Ahhhh cool!

[@maxsteiner1964]

All of the songs on this album is for different greek gods. Exist for Love is for Aphrodite, Artemis is for well, Artemis. And so on. Its really cool actually.

[@paracosmparty]

Loved your reaction! If you’re looking for a live performance of “Exist For Love” I recommend this version here! Her harmonies with her band are just perfection 💖 kzbin.info/www/bejne/rou1Z3Zja9Sqj9E
