[@senseiirsalina7319]

She is extremely underrated. Her live performances are just as perfect as studio recordings. Its so unique and beautiful. God I wish to see her perform live

[@senseiirsalina7319]

Couldn't agree more.

[@babumiriel1233]

She could sell herself for the common pop music but she didn't and I'm glad for this. She better be underrated then be like the other tousand singer, don't you think?

[@massimilianopraticelli8986]

Not always as perfect as studio recordings. In this one, you can clearly hear that she doesn't always hit the notes with full confidence and in some moments she's on the verge of losing control, even though she manages to stay in tune. I also remember a 2014 concert in Oslo where she's quite out of tune. She's human, singers experience that sooner or later. But yes, generally speaking there are quite a few incredible live performances of hers and I'm sure there will be more of those in the future as well.

3:29 B5 last note

[@krazyjazper1574]

3:30 I love how the musicians nod their head in sync during the long "oooo" when the note gets higher, and aurora is just singing there while standing still. It's as if Aurora is the falling drop of water, and the ripple effect happens to the musicians, and then continued by the cheering audience. It gives me goosebumps everytime.

[@matheusmartins6086]

this videos just drops to me, and im repeating this 'reborn' thousands times

[@watchernotacritic8863]

Everyone’s talking about the high note at the very end but bro that short lil high note on the end of the word “reborn” @3:25 is absolutely phenomenal. It’s simple, but it’s so smooth and angelic. Absolutely insane that she can do that with her voice. What a talent

[@pd2879]

She just can't stop improving... I can't imagine what will Aurora be like in five or ten years. Is there a word for more than perfect?

She is magnificent, but I actually find her extremely relatable. She is very human and there is magic in her that we all have within us, that we can tap into. It is magical and rare but so is life and everything we may take for granted each day

Best album i've ever heard in my 57 years.

[@ursafan40]

+kenny bob I just discovered her a month ago. It certainly has moved me like nothing else I can remember. Not often I get tears in my eyes listening to music. I find her entire being almost impossibly beautiful.

I'm with you there.... although the old Genesis and Allan Parson's project albums are pretty wicked too. Aurora is in another realm of cool.

AURORA: Roman Goddess of Dawn, the bringer of Light. Her parents probably never knew how on point they were when they named her..... ;) Even though most of her songs deal with sad topics they all have a ray of light in there somewhere and her personality, her message to her fans is simply uplifting! :D

[@michalkraska8728]

You know what is funny ? Both are the same 'Morning Star'.

[@davidapharry4680]

After her last pure, high note fades away... we see her start to feel love from the audience... she dances forward, swaying, from the world of the song to the present... she smiles and reaches out, tears welling, returning the love... then she remembers... and as if to say "oops, I need to go back to the song for a bit"... she makes a silly face, smile slowly fading as she looks up, in wonder... and as the last piano note fades, she turns and slyly smiles at the audience... ready to share more love. What a performance! "Magical" comes to mind, but seems too trite and insufficient. I simply love the way she connects with her live audiences. And I want to see her in film.

She walked us through her dream with this song Only AURORA has the ability to do so

[@yuqray5988]

“Black Water Lilies was a dream I had. The melody was playing in the background. And I was dreaming that there was a hand, and I grabbed it, and it took me underwater. And there was a river, unter the water, running down. And I floated on the river, under the water, and I came to this magic place with lots of black water lilies - floating on the water - which was underneath the water. It was a very strange dream. When I woke up I ran straight to the piano and wrote the song.”

[@pinkdruid2347]

Aurora is magical. I mean that in the most literal sense possible. Not only her voice, but her entire persona evokes the feeling of being in a fantasy. Soft and ethereal, haunting and mysterious, a little silly and playful too. Just as any good fairytale should be. This is what I imagine the songs of fairies and mermaids to sound like. I’m almost convinced that if Aurora pulled her hair back she’d have little pointed ears. She is by all meanings of the word…magical. ✨

[@nouranez5634]

That high note in the end, I decided, will be my hope in life from now on. That high note is better in her live performance than in the studio version, I love you AURORA

[@avictorbell2835]

Came across this very late one night, so late it was almost daybreak,one of those nights when you know that you're not going to get any sleep Had to order all of her music online , at 62 I'm probably a big out of the normal demographic for Aurora's fanbase Just goes to show that no matter how old you are there's always something new, beautiful and exciting out there if you look for it

Aurora's music to me is for everyone🌟. I'm 17 so for me it's hard to find people my age who are actually interested in songs as beautiful as this. There unfortunately only few people in my generation understand heartfelt music that carry beautiful messages like Aurora's songs.

[@user-cc4bs5bi9i]

3:49 she looks like an alien

[@StacheBigote]

The thing I love most about this song is the imagery that the lyrics conjure for me. Because those images are supported by the music so wonderfully. It really taps into something natural and primordial in me. I can feel myself being pulled out of my comfort zone and into the water, only to find even more comfort and beauty in the freedom below. I can close my eyes and feel like I’m afloat on a river amongst the lilies, heading towards the ocean. I know that she has said this song was about a dream she had where she was floating down an underwater river into an underwater ocean. The song has a real dreamlike quality to it as well. So it’s really firing on all cylinders. On of my favorite songs. Not just from her, but in general.
