AURORA - Senkveld - INTERVIEW 08.05.2015

[@kizzy3563]

I love honesty, and that she is.

[@southport97]

Kiz zie She's so eager to please, but stays true to her integrity. Very rare in people!

[@kizzy3563]

southport97 Agreed! I have so much respect for individuals like her. And she's still so young!

[@ballsofdoom3124]

Damn right.

[@schmielie4212]

+southport97 I fully agree.

[@dragonfly5665q]

i love how she honestly, simply and cutely answered the katy perry question by saying "no" but then acknowledged that the tweet actually did help a lot

[@Armadeathon]

She is really mature for her age.The guys r makin fun of her, and treats her like a child.Emberassing. They should be graceful to be in the same room as her

[@elvispiss]

+Armadeathon Wow. Chill.

[@pvandck]

+Armadeathon "The guys r makin fun of her, and treats her like a child." No they aren't. Really they aren't. That's just what you wish to interpret. Are you a child by any chance - mentally speaking, at least? That would explain your odd interpretation of events. Joking and laughing with someone is neither making fun of them nor treating them like a child. Grow a sense of humour and learn how to use it. And learn the difference between laughing with someone and laughing at someone.

[@VioletLilikoi]

+pvandck +Armadeathon I think it was the moth thing. She looked just a bit off put by their constant sarcastic remarks towards her hobby of collecting moths. Sometimes people don't understand how to speak to someone who have different interests or opinions, thus turns to sarcasm which in this interview came off like they were picking on her, which she didn't appear to have appreciated that.

[@pvandck]

Just a bit of projection there, maybe? She spends all her time in the company of musicians and other people in the business of entertainment. Age and gender were not issues, and honestly I don't know what you think you were watching. There was no disrespect or patronising going on and it all seemed pretty good natured and comfortable. Of course if it's not your culture I suppose you could read all sorts of bad stuff into anything.

[@VioletLilikoi]

+pvandck I tried to write it so it came off more lightly by saying "picking on" or saying "just a bit". There's no need to blow a comment out of proportion. I'm sure this is just a communication error without the context of tone. I agree with you to a degree, but just felt she seemed a bit uncomfortable. That is all. I'm not trying to be rude, I hope you have a good day. 😕

[@SquareNoggin]

I love her response to "Is Katy Perry an idol of yours?" Of course not. This girl is a musical genius. Her interests have been refined past Katy Perry, that's for sure.

[@charleskeirsey4905]

+Spider Jerusalem I totally agree. She has so much more class than Katy Perry and I hope she stays the way she is and not get corrupted by all the b.s. in the so called "industry". Stay real girl and don't ever sellout.

[@EcilaQueen]

I know right! I was like c'mon guys, of course that's not her idol, her music isn't even close to her genre or anything!

[@guitaria6]

sucks that aurora's fans are not as positive as her. cmon guys lighten up plz

[@pablogarciasanz500]

Wtf she and you wish to accomplish half of what Katy Perry accomplished

[@SquareNoggin]

@@guitaria6 Yeah you're right tbh. It was a little uncalled for. I haven't really given Katy Perry an honest go of it, and she's probably successful for a reason. But at the same time, who CAN we shit on if not the wildly successful pop stars with legions of fans, millions of dollars, mansions, the works? Sometimes you just wanna be condescending and snobbish when you feel like an artist you like is on another level, you know? haha I wanna imagine Aurora was digging through some deep cuts of more obscure music when she was inspired into being an artist herself (yes yes I know Bob Dylan and Leonard Cohen aren't exactly head-y deep cuts either but still)- "idolizing" radio pop stars who are as much marketing icons as they are musicians seems... unfair to Aurora's artistry. Fans are always gonna be that way about musicians they like. We feel like we have good taste, how you gonna imply the musicians we like have comparably poor taste? It's worth pointing out that Aurora has become significantly more commercially successful in the last five years, since those comments were made. There was a time when being a fan of hers felt like being an early adopter of the next big thing.

[@josealcantara26]

She is so pure and natural. It has a beautiful personality

[@obnoxiousxleprechaun]

ugh, i love her. totally not intimidated surrounded by big old men in suits, being honest and reacting to stuff how she wants instead of trying to be 'polite' and gracious like a lot of girls may feel pressured to do when put next to 4 old suited men lmao. LOVE HER.

[@pvandck]

+Kay Lace You haven't seen her band members then. I expect when you get past 25 you'll describe yourself as old. At least Aurora Aksnes is much more mature than your comment suggests you are.

[@KarenUrOl]

+Kay Lace there were 5 old suited men!! even more pressure! But I'm Norwegian, I see this show a lot, and the hosts are very kind, silly and weird, so I think that made some difference, it just didn't show that much in this clip :)

[@rachelpinheiro2593]

I loved too. I agree with u... ugh i just hate what those mans makes her feel embarrassed

[@pikachuthedog]

It was rude to say that it doesn't matter what she says in between the songs, because she says often very important things, for example what the next song is about or what she feels. I think that makes the show special, when an artist says something, instead of constant singing.

[@crystalelizabeth369]

Patryk Zep no he meant that it didnt matter that she said such a weird and embarrassing story because her voice is so beautiful, he didn’t mean in general he was just making her feel better about embarrassing herself

[@Norsemann]

He was trying to comfort her, to say that it dosent matter if you said something stupid, the music is the important thing and you are great at that

[@juliacalismusic8572]

It is literally something I value so much, because yes I love her music, but I care more about her than her music.

[@rachelpinheiro2593]

I agree

[@rachelpinheiro2593]

Those mans are very sexist with her (and about Katy too, making female rivalry).

[@Yumerifter]

I'm so angry they kept making fun of her wtf they were so rude I feel so bad for Aurora those guys don't deserve to be sitting around her

[@davidshepard-alenko4232]

as I imagined, she's much more confident in her native tongue. not that her english isn't also amazing, because it is, but she naturally speaks much more slowly and considers her words carefully because she is referencing their meaning. to us english speakers, that is endearing however... perhaps a large part of her charm.

[@leocarona]

+David Shepard-Alenko Interesting observation. I saw she saying in another interview that she loves her native language but she'd rather choose english when singing as she'd feel a bit more vulnerable singing in norwegian. I feel like watching some more interviews gave by her in norwegian to observe that. Hope i'm lucky to find some more with subtitles in any language i understand now.

[@RohannvanRensburg]

I think it's indeed charming, but I don't think her charm is any less here, other than the fact that she seems a tad uncomfortable here and there with their poking fun and generally treating her as a "strange artist" as many interviewers chronically do. I think it further illustrates a maturity in her that fits well with her music.

[@davicarvalho1945]

I'm from Brazil,but i didn't met her through Katy.I just love good music,and this girl knows how to make it.In love with her 😍

[@mycurlysky9482]

I've seen this interview many times, I don't get tired of it.

[@ashleigh3602]

same

[@Daysed.and.Konfuzed]

"So, I was attending the call of nature, but I forgot to lock the door. Suddenly, a celebrity nature enthusiast walks in and starts undressing." That guy had just lived the most surreal story of his life.

[@leticialange7385]

Brazil loves you girl!

[@ExpDev69]

omg this interview is the best ever

[@arisas.8847]

OMG. Didn't notice that there was english subtitles. I saw this video all in norwegian xD

[@bergdk237]

:) :D

[@anamota7798]

It's nice to see that, even w all those people more impressed about that Katy Perry talked about her song than her songs it's self, and she still thinks is nice of her to share her song but for her Katy Perry liking it is the same than any other person liking her songs. Even if she was grateful because a lot of people had the opportunity to know her as an artist, she just felt grateful as Katy was any other person that's nice tho. And when they asked her if Katy was an idol of her, she stopped for a while thinking if she would look rude if she said no but anyways she preferred to be sincere. She's a sweet soul

[@letswatchutube5132]

Aurora is like an angel, she was our secret. Those men can fuck off, making fun of her for collecting moths. She is so mature and I love her honesty. I would love to see her collection, lol.

[@tony16074]

you said well! Thank you!

[@camilaGMW]

Im one of the Brazilian fans! o/ Thanks for noticing us, Aurora! (Thou I didnt get to know her throu Perry)

[@gilieucaetano9732]

Brazil here too

[@davisalles637]

me too

[@thaynahcarolineandrade8004]

me too

[@silasriver109]

I'm reading a lot that people believe Aurora was mishandled by her interviewers. I also notice that a lot of these complaints come from English-speaking accounts. I can say, as a fluent Norwegian speaker, that the interviewers were perfectly pleasant and respectful. I think that a lot of the concerns comes from the vocal pitches of Norwegian, I will admit, that if you don't understand Norwegian, it does sound mocking and almost as if they are laughing. However, Norwegian is a tonal language, and that's literally just how it sounds. Also, the subtitles are incorrect in several places, in their translation into English. For example, at the end when she mentions that "det var upassende", the subtitles say that it was "unsettling", which is incorrect, the correct word would have been "inappropriate"- there are other examples. To wrap it up: they were perfectly pleasant, and I did not detect a mocking tone in any of the conversation. It's also worth noting that the men on the interviewing panel are mostly comedians, especially the guy on the far left - comedy and satire is literally their raison detre.

[@cgboy2003]

But she was annoyed. It's always subtle, and fans know how she looks when she is unhappy about the interview. She still smiled because she was new then. She is not a person who easily feels offended. And if it had been so fine, why wouldn't she be on this show again until 2018? She has been on Lindmo regularly but not this one. And why didn't they do this again when she was on it again in 2018? Wasn't that "perfectly pleasant and respectful"? Only morons would fuck with the most talented artist from your own country and make her unwilling to be there again.

[@dexie135]

2:11 i love her reaction😅

[@austins3438]

Very childish to mock someone for their interests and hobbies 😒

[@jakobsolevag8034]

It's humour program get over it

[@parnilsson8283]

I also noticed that she looked a bit annoyed

[@Norsemann]

A few of these are comedians, so what to expect?

[@honguito88]

I see that too, I don't know, It makes me disrespectful that they do not take seriously what she says

[@subhansohail1897]

Fu

[@jiros00]

Very talented singer.

[@youcristineltube]

i gave the like only for her and not for the cave men

[@letswatchutube5132]

sava cristian samee

[@wpynaemnasuchegoprzestworo8336]

Me too. ;)

[@noobieloobie7155]

wtf?

[@lucacontini1906]

Exactly.

[@SantaCecilie]

It's a humorous talk show. It is about funny comments. Aurora knows that. Their job is to make the conversation and the interview object funny. And they do. A thing about Aurora is that her mind wanders off at times. So if she seems like not laughing it is probably because she didn't pay attention at that moment.

[@thaynahcarolineandrade8004]

Brazil loves you ❤

[@twoflagz3224]

I really love this girl

[@michaelhawkins1528]

The Norwegian language is beautiful

[@ellie.644]

Michael Hawkins tusen takk *thank you*

[@jessicacardoso2103]

She is so lovely and talented! Funny as well and that's the reason I love seeing her interviews. Any chance of English subs sometime soon?

[@southport97]

[@deepaklal801]

She is soooo innocent

[@hjertaker]

Haha, herlig intervju!

[@Rally_Stache]

jeg elsker henne!

[@victorbarrosleite577]

So Lovely *.*

[@teenytinytoons]

I’ve seen just about every Aurora interview and I’ve never seen her so uncomfortable before. She had some great moments, but she wasn’t really fond of some of the “jokes” made by the guys sitting next to her. She hid it well.

[@doraemondrawer2723]

LOL, I love her story!!! so cunny

[@Danilo85868]

And now she's making more money than the 4 guys combined. Life is funny.

[@Drikkan]

"Du må låse" Bahahahaha love the expression on her face when she says this lol

[@leocarona]

Takke for the subtitles

[@yangsuri]

That interviewers know how to loosen the tension but I wish they had focused more about music

[@NicolasTatro]

I will add my voice to those protesting this sort of dismissive, schoolboy treatment of a female artist on a national TV show. Let's see them try to belittle her now.

[@julimoreno173]

Indeed

[@rachelpinheiro2593]

The men's continued to pressure her, creating a rivalry with Katy rudely, asking the same question over and over again and she always politely responding with a "no". They laughed at her for collecting moths, and then reduced her to just a talent for singing. He literally said that nothing she said or did that wasn't singing matters, because she sings like an angel. That's disgusting. Aside from the bad parts of the show's interview, i loved as always the way Aurora knows how to be herself.

[@psychopathinthemaking]

This is what? The fourth interview I've seen with them mentioning Katy? It's really rather annoying now. She's awesome but geez, its like ppl are getting kicks off the fact that she's not hero worshipping her. Secondly, oh my gosh Aurora, that story, I'm dying from second hand cringe.

[@larissam.2299]

Hey Aurora you can come look for some flies here in Brazil. I'd love that!

[@frbjorkh]

jeg ble fan av aurora når jeg vår på moldejazz konsert.

[@simeongalda5988]

7:00 oh boy she is really fucking mad at the end, those guys didn't even show little respect for her, bruh singing after that bullying for those assholes takes a lot of courage I have really big respect for her, she is really herself even after those types of events, an insanely smart and clever woman

[@cgboy2003]

Aurora hadn't been on this show again until 2018 when Stian Blipp and Helene Olafsen took over the program. It's obvious and needless to argue. She has been on other shows regularly, and everything was different and nicer when she came to this show again, see kzbin.info/www/bejne/qpfJgKF3hMqUqsk

[@marym6782]

She is so cute! haha

[@niewiemwlasnie60]

I dont understand a single word, bot i love it :)

[@Jade.n.]

there are english subtitles

[@niewiemwlasnie60]

+Jade Nanarjain I think I was watching this on my phone ;)

[@RayasNegroOvejas]

+niewiem wlasnie you can still have subtitles if you're on your phone

[@shubhamkale1163]

On right upper side-3 vertical dots-captions

[@DORIANKOVAK]

Ces types ne peuvent pas comprendre. Elle les survole. Leurs sarcasmes ne l'atteignent pas. Elle est qui elle est, n'en a pas honte, ne ressent pas le besoin de leur prouver quoi que ce soit. C'est superbe.

[@hux2000]

I don't speak a word of Norwegian, but it's interesting that I can hear quite different accents going on here. Like, the guy on the left I'm guessing is from Oslo because his accent is super up and down musical (almost like a Norwegian or Swedish stereotype), whereas Aurora's is much flatter, almost more "English".

[@joakim2k10]

The guy to the very left actually did an exaggerated imitation of rural Norwegian. They're all from Oslo except for Aurora.

[@fatbelly27]

There's an interview with Aurora and her two sisters where the interviewer comments that they all have different accents. Apparently the family moved when Aurora was a baby so the oldest sister has an accent from the old place, aurora from the new place and the middle sister has a halfway accent. Norway must have a lot of accents.

[@ellie.644]

Yes Aurora is from Bergen where you put more pressure on the «r» and «t» she is from the east. The other men are from Oslo where you spreek a clean norwegian actually almost Danish, long time ago Norway was under Denmark and we spoke only danish. In norway today we call it *bokmål* it’s a mix between danish and norwegian. After that a man called *Ivar knudsen* has collected dialects from all over norway and put together *nynorsk* (new norwegian) which is how people in norhern Norway and parts of east Norway actually writes. But in different parts of Norway we have different dialects. from the east its again more pressure on the «r» and «t» in south and west we spreek the more Danish-Norwegian way and all the way north we have more pressure on the *i* t* *j* and also eaven further we have the *sami people* .... sorry my english is not pretty good but i hope i gave you a little understanding of our dialects and history of our language

[@LuisAngelCandanosa]

She reminds me to Lorde for some reason.

[@mysterons1564]

Why dude

[@rachelpinheiro2593]

Same. I think the reason is for the both are much natural and authentic. ❤

[@imkow]

This is very wonderful. Would you upload Norwegian singer Maria Arredondo's recent music performance from TV2 Sumo? Please help...

[@Sprouze2]

Why the fuck are all these people in the comments discussing what she says in norwegian, in english?

[@griffox]

+Sprouze English subtitles.

[@MrOperettalover]

Because of what all insignificant countries suffer from, inferior complex. Try to bear over with those who can't hold back on their proudness. Reasonable Norwegians know all so well, she's good, not because she's Norwegian, but despite this fact. All honor to Aurora and her alone. All social democratic kleptocratic Norway did for her is holding her back.

[@superpeder1]

Hun er så fet. Digger Aurora

[@HEAVYDIAPER]

Dude is that the actor who played Jarl Borg on the History channel's Vikings?? BORG!

[@chrisron1977]

Yep, it's him.

Eg trodde det va en stor fornærmelse å si at en fra Os e fra Bergen

they were making fun of her and her moths, stupid guys, she's very wise and they treated her like a child. I don't know if it was awkward for her, but i was very awkward for me to watch.

[@paulineplog584]

yeah same! one time after a few moth jokes she didn't even laugh anymore

[@seb5587]

[@hallejohn]

Hello, is there anybody out there, who can translate this into english and/or write english subtitle please. I would like to speak more languages than mother tongue german and second English ;( The reason I don't practise, I have no use for it :(

[@bibogum]

hallejohn There are subtitles if you turn on captions

[@hallejohn]

Aqsa Khan ahhh great thanks. I am not sure if it was there 3 months ago, but thank you. It was quiet funny and weird what she told, but xD it is her. so true I am sorry for wrong grammar.

[@sosiaalinen818]

Does she speak nynorsk or bokmål?

[@cactuskaktus6734]

One doesn't speak Nynorsk or Bokmål. Since she's from around Bergen she probably writes Bokmål.

[@elisabeth2560]

I'm not quite sure if she writes bokmål or nynorsk, because in bergen we write bokmål, but i think the rest of hordaland writes nynorsk (don't quote me on that one, because i'm not 100% sure)

[@NathalieHoran]

+Elisabeth Hasselgreen you are right, great amounts of Hordaland writes nynorsk. But Os is so close to Bergen and the dialect is almost identical, so she writes bokmål like the rest of Bergen :)

[@ibelooking]

[@agirlbelngingtthewild9625]

Man can they just let the poor girl be and stop nagging on her about moths and other stuff. Besides why would Katy Perry be an idol for Aurora!? It just wouldn't make sense at all.

i gave the like only for her and not for the cave men // RT

[@shenriquez1221]

Dumb interviewers. If I was there interviewing her I would talk about her music, her inspiration, the reasoning behind her lyrics. Instead the conversation is about moths and toilets. Don't get me wrong, we get to find out about her personality, which in my eyes makes her an even better person than I thought (I love that she answered honestly to Katy Perry's question). But I would love to have a conversation with her about her music.

[@pkmnFanNr1]

Believe me, she knew what she was getting into when she agreed to come on this show xD

She was kinda rude with Katy Perry after what she did honestly
