Joy, in her remarkable voice and exuberant dance, this is Universe Level energy and Happy Happy. Sadness in that at 70 years old and with instant access to the World...even if I were to only sleep 4 out of 24 hours a cycle, there isn't enough time in several lifetimes to explore the vast wonders and variety of the Human experience, of life, of interacting with others and the spaces we live in! Thank you for such a wonderful experience in this young woman, I am a follower in all the time I have remaining...just Amazing exuberance for life here in this gifted Artist!

I know old stuff but I’m blown away by this young woman. She’s not only talented but genuine. We all know how rare that is

[@bkub4289]

It seems like, Aurora is so much in touch with her mind, body, spirit and soul. Like, as she if she feels herself and knows it - and she accepts and loves herself just as she is. It is penetrating for me to watch her enjoy the moment of creating music. Wonderful.

This is what we were all made to be...in our own unique ways. And its still possible my friend. 😊🙏

[@emmaobrien2952]

What I really enjoy is how you can hear her struggle through her music. I know people hear her hope and positivity but I also hear the struggle that she went through to get to that point of acceptance in herself through music.

[@FrankHerfjord]

Everybody has met somebody with this character in their life. But never so pure and heartfelt. She is unique, and truly Awesome. In the original meaning of the word. Or both, I guess. There are a few other performers like this but they are extremely rare and always very different. Johnny Cash springs to mind. You need a lot more than a pretty voice with technical skills to be truly memorable.

[@zarkojovic1634]

Just go for it, my friend. Whenever you set yourself any boundary, just realize in 100 years any who judge you will be dead anyway so, why care. Life is one and only and will never repeat itself. It's a gift from God, nature or whatever you believe... So just enjoy, express yourself and do not hurt yourself or anyone else in the process and you are good.

Finally an artist that is not referred to in a metaphorical sense. Aurora is an actual 'true' artist in literal form. A presence comparable to words such as; Beauty, Majestic, surging at times with the energy of a sharp, cool breeze passing through your soul; creating the emotion of exhilarated excitement. There is a distinct pureness within this artistry, that could be compared to a resurgence of a long lost ancient folklore. Aurora are a phenomenon, they elevate the invested audience somewhere otherworldly though simulataneoulsy a distinct impression of familitarity; such as having breathed once upon a time in your life; the most freshest and cleanest of mountain air :)

No offence, but often this uniqueness, or rare charisma, is why the entertainment industry coose these women, ending their career while entirely whored out. This young woman already shows the signs of not being authentic anymore. Behaving weird. Remember Amy Whinehouse? Or Whitney Houston? Both wrecked by booz and drugs, losing their voices. Thrown on the heap of artists whose careers and lives came to an untimely end. Nowadays, talented and good looking youngsters, that promise to be great revenue models in the spotlights, are made by the creation of a split personality, in order to perform on stage with superhuman quality. The price they pay is torture, an extreme form of submission in order to guarantee stardom on stage, for huge audiences. Until the glamour begins to fade while wearing an armour of make belief, beginning to show cracks. Slaves
