@@rosemay75 It is very correct to add that. He is a very good drummer who sees himself first and foremost as a producer (a bit like Simon Phillips). During a drum session I gave him some input on accentuating certain beats. Instead of going back into the recording booth, he just grabbed a midi keyboard, quickly added some well placed samples and it was perfect in less than 2 minutes👌. I think that kind of efficient attitude is part of why he and Aurora are such a good match😊

You can really see that Aurora is "directing" the rest of the band with her movements. Its very evident in the song "It Happen Quiet" You can see Silja is paying close attention to what Aurora is doing with her body and arms so she can anticipate where she is going. Aurora is improvising so much live that it can be a "nightmare" to back her up. After Silja left to do her own thing, you can see that her new backing (well, two backings now cos that is what it takes to even try to replace Silja) really struggling to keep up with Aurora in the first live shows after Silja. They are however really coming into their own now so kudos to them. It takes some chops to try to follow in Silja's footsteps but I think they are doing a fantastic job now.

I can only imagine what it’s like to stand there and watch your child, with such talent, inspire other people. Her parents inspire me, based on what Aurora has said about them, to be the best mom I can be to my girl.

Yeah just imagine how proud they must have felt during that 😄 I actually met her parents once and tried thanking them for what they've done and they wouldn't have any of it, lol 😄 Her father joked that raising Aurora was a job that took all of 30 minutes and from then on it was all Aurora who did everything herself 😄 They are the nicest, most humble human beings.

Yes, yes, and yes. That's pure happiness! I've never heard her do it anywhere else but in that song. At that moment. I like to imagine that it was totally unexpected, that it was her joy exploding. And I have no reason to believe otherwise :) It's my favourite version of the song, for that reason alone. And in the video, when she shakes her head with that almost childish grimace of jubilation.

You are crying.... I am too, and I have seen this 20-30 times before! I am so disipointed with myself... I stood only 2-3 meters away from Auroras parents, and her sister Miranda at the Kongsberg consert. I could easily have talked to them. But I was so afraid to do it, to dont be able to say anything, to start crying or something. I am not that kind of person, I dont get emotional normally, I have no problem talking to anybody, but Aurora messes with my head in ways I have given up to understand. I so wanted to thank them for supporting Aurora so we can have her in our lives. Especially her mother for telling her that she should share her music. I met Aurora on the street also, and I did not manage to say anything!

Hi there Ashlena. When I saw that you were going to have the whole HAIK on the same day, it was really the highlight of Christmas Day. A fantastic reaction from you and I can't thank you enough for your compliments to Silja. To keep a steady pace and do it so remarkably well is a feat. She is definitely my favorite backup vocal ever. Many have the super beautiful and epic Nidarosdomen concert as her best or other concerts but I think this one is the best.. why then yes. This concert is AURORA at her core, out in nature with the audience close. What makes me so warm inside is that the whole program shows what a warm, emotional and above all what a humble person she is. Excuse my bad English. 🥳💖💖💖💖

You are very right. It's truly heartbreaking. But be aware that it is an edited reality so the depiction of who is the bad guys is not necessarily always entirely accurate. Like for most people, the transition from being a young person to becoming an adult is a tough transformation period. And she actually got sick while it occured. Luckily most of us are not in the spotlight, and doesn't have a camera team following us documenting it. But as the honest person she is, she allowed it (And she personally knew the camera team operators and film makers very well). She is in a totally different place emotionally today though (as an adult) 🫠.

After all Aurora is also a kinda "cry baby" herself🤗 who considers crying both important and good (even if it can make singing difficult). When she finished singing "warrior" to the two girls, she said in Norwegian: "It was so hard not to start crying. Because you were so beautiful there you sat. What she says before the last song is: "Don't forget to dream big, because that is important" I wish you and your family a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
