If you ever watched Frozen 2 with your daughter, you would have heard Aurora without realizing it.

[@jakesigalmix]

Aurora is, and not exaggerating this time, the only artist I get actual goosebumps from.

[@Tarkus_]

Yeah, I'm never not blown away by her talent. It's hard for me to even comprehend.

[@DannyPodcast]

Agreed, one of the few next gen artists I find interesting tbh.

[@grysqrl]

Aurora is incredible. This video is from P3, a Norwegian radio show where musicians show up to play one of their songs and do an interview; but when they arrive at the station they are also given a cover to perform, so she learned, arranged, and rehearsed this in less than an hour.

[@storkbreath]

🫨🤩

[@Tarkus_]

Pure witchcraft, but obviously she's one of the good witches. 😉

[@johnytwo]

I thought that was the australian show Tripple J that does this stuff?

[@storkbreath]

@@johnytwo both P3 and Triple j ask for a cover. But now SKAAR has Covered an Aurora song, Exist for love on P3

[@pyrpyr5Wolf]

@@johnytwo They do it as well! Amazingly I first heard Aurora on Triple J back when Runaway came out. I think of that often, might not have been a fan from the start had I not been living in Oz back then (I'm Danish).

[@hardcarbon4035]

Björk is not far fetched, she was a big inspiration for Aurora, also Björk said to be in the Audience of Auroras KEXP Performance in Iceland

[@Maple837]

PLEASE 🙏 I BEG YOU TO DO MORE OF AURORA.. I FOUND HER A FEW YEARS BACK AND I PROMISE YOU THEIR IS NO ONE LIKE HER

[@nightcrawler5696]

That comparison to Bjork, and Leeloo from Fifth Element, are perfect. She's a mystical force of nature.

[@lilliannilsen]

Most spot on combo of comparisons ever!!

[@johnytwo]

Yeah, but Bjork is more of a punk of a force of nature :)

[@sigrid129]

She’s just Nordic

[@celinel9750]

For me Aurora is a soul sister of Ren, the best human on the planet, story teller and soul effect, both doing things in their own way (Aurora is not independent but control all that she can) she defenitely deserve a dig in her rabbit hole 🙂

[@maggamold]

Agree!!!

[@storkbreath]

She is the fifth element! Trust your instinct.

[@samanthaspencer7404]

I would LOVE to hear Ren and Aurora working together 🙏✨🥰

[@Mittens]

Ayy another Aurora reaction, hope to see you check out more of her original stuff soon. Keep up the grind bro 🤝

[@petermalin2675]

Ren and Aurora are the truth, best experienced live. Both do amazing covers and thought provoking originals. I hope you continue down her rabbit hole. Try anything from her KEXP live from Iceland concert. She really brings it. Apparently Bjork was in attendance

[@joeuncoolio]

Oh, and Aurora's voice is pure. That's all you can say.

[@nightcrawler5696]

Check out Murder Song (5, 4, 3, 2, 1) - 2015 Nobel Peace Prize Concert. I've watched Cliff Beats go down the Aurora rabbit hole and it's glorious to watch other experience the spell she casts on us.

[@lisahiselius6539]

I second this!! so bad!!

[@notvochkin]

Tou can never go wrong with Aurora. Whether original or a cover, it will be good!

[@anastasiagreene5967]

Ren and AURORA are my favorite artists of today!❤❤❤

[@hakanandersson1276]

Hello man! Great that you take the Aurora train. The Quirky, humble, kind, outspoken woman that have so many follower and go under the radar most of the time are otherworthly. When she speaks she talk so smooth like a lullabye and when she do a original video with her and the dancers full of blood on their bodies. she sings of a woman that murder men and have their bodyparts under the bed. She is a natureforce with energy like an mountain river and she never backoff . She is my Queen and Soulhealer . Hope this make sense. Have seen all of your Ren reactions and they are marvellous hope you get the same time with Aurora ;-)

[@storkbreath]

Aurora is an amazing songwriter and has somewhere around 💯 original songs. It's funny that you did this song. But Aurora is amazing I'm here for all of her songs 💓

[@MrNiccholas]

That was the best thing I've heard in a while! I've got to get watch his again!

[@markstuartwakeley]

More Aurora please BP. Stay safe

[@ajaviborg]

Do Wardruna helvegen live with Aurora 🙏🏼 And when you do, invite your friend that loves Rammstein (if he hasnt seen it already) he'll love it I can guarantee it . ❤ from Iceland

[@Einyen]

Aurora is very well known for her amazing covers, she has done around 30 covers, and in many of them she changes the songs a lot, like David Bowie - Life On Mars (best version on channel NRK), Imagine Dragons - Believer, Ariana Grande - God Is A Woman etc. etc. Several of the covers she did on this Norwegian NRK P3 radio station, and they challenge the artists that visit them to cover a song, that they choose from a list when they arrive, so they haven't prepared it in advance, they just get a limited time to prepare at the radio station. For this Rasputin cover Aurora wrote afterwards in the comments to the video, that they only rehearsed this for ~15min!! And she didn't know the song before!

[@Lhopsecker]

Her covers of "Half the World Away" and "Across the Universe" are divine.

[@Tarkus_]

I believe that, but at the same time, my brain cannot process it. She is just so insanely talented. I would be impressed if she had a month to prepare.

[@Einyen]

@@Tarkus_ You can see her looking at the lyrics just before starting to sing, and doing one extra pause at one point, where I think she almost forgot the lyrics. But yes amazing to make that cover so quickly.

[@Tarkus_]

@@Einyen I know, it's just crazy. Another one that blows my mind is her cover of "Believer" by Imagine Dragons. Apparently she chose the song because dragons are cool, because she didn't know that song either. It's a pretty long song, and although she has the lyrics in front of her, she has has to produce all the music and melody by herself from memory. I don't get it. 🤷‍♂️

[@celinel9750]

We can add that she got 2 realy good musicien with her (specialy Magnus )

[@crashadistel]

I constantly watch AURORA - Warrior (Live at HAIK), it is one of the most touching perfromances, and then when you know the lyriocs as well....

[@RunarNyrud]

Check out Through the eyes of a child from Nidarosdomen concert! Its magic!

[@Roy-mw5js]

Yes, you saw the random feed of Boney M because you did Aurora reaction. It's all in the algorithm. Love Aurora ❤

[@gracemichelli.2am124]

Love Arora. She's so unique. Great reaction ❤

[@RoarinRoots]

Another amazing Cover by Aurora...she really makes them her own. has such a beautiful mesmerizing voice

[@kathyborthwick6738]

Voice of an Angel🦢❤🦢

[@kevinfossan9462]

Funny thing is that ive been fan of Aurora for over a decade, shes utterly amazing, seen her countless times live. shes an old soul filled with music, buuuuut back to the point - when i started found down the renrabbithole alittle over a year ago one thing i noticed is that Ren Also followed Aurora. Lets not forget that she looks like a hot angel also.

[@Oldperson-wt3ui]

Love this cover, her outfit was not planned to go with the song, she is authentic in her clothes, she and her sister design and make them, so, very original clothing. Nice reaction, thanks for coming back to my favorite artist.

[@elaine8013]

Amazing voice! Not the kind of song people can cover and she got it.

[@samanthaspencer7404]

Oh so glad you got to this one🥰

[@thomasd9635]

I can see why you feel the fifth element when you watch Aurora. She and the women from the fifth element seem from another world in the same way.

[@MBella123]

Aurora is definitely incredible! She lives and breathes art and it’s not an exaggeration. I’m glad you checked her live because it’s when she shines even more. She’s so authentic, so good!! 💜

[@slavaukraini404]

I saw Bjork in the front row of an AURORA concert, AURORA is probably the greatest artist in the world today. Give her any song to cover and she will do something amazing with it. Her own songs are brilliant however.

[@tx0h]

you wouldn't believe what she did with magic dragons 'believer' or beatles 'across the universe'. the producer of boney m and milli vanilli, frank farian, died a few weeks ago. coincident?

[@timgrodesky4694]

So great to see you getting into what Aurora gives! Her performance on Vevo live stripped doing her song Through the eyes of a Child will blow your mind!! Damn near everything she does can do that for sure! Looking forward to more in the future....

[@sabijea]

you have to check Murder, 54321, live version at the nobel prize, it is a breathtaking performance !

[@alexreichert6752]

Glad you're checking her out again, react to The Seed by her!

[@TheNordicharps]

You should certainly look up Rasputin. It is a true and chilling story. And Aurora is remarkable. More please!

[@kevdenn]

Aurora has just released 2 new songs a few weeks ago and a new album is on the horizon, not sure when it'll be released. Aurora Aksnes, 27 from Norway started forming melodies at age 6 with words coming around age 9. If you listen to her song "Runaway" live at the 2015 Nobel Peace Prize Concert, she wrote that song when she was 11. Great reaction and I hope you continue to dive into the world of Aurora's music. Thanks. Oh, btw She had a LOT of great covers, everyone a banger.

[@sadfaery]

Bjork and Aurora are both Scandinavian, though from different countries (Iceland and Norway respectively). This was a beautiful cover, and I think Aurora does have an ethereal, otherworldly sound to her singing style. And the way she adapted this cover really lent a sort of central Asian musical feel to it. Rasputin was from Western Siberia, close to the border of Kazakhstan, so that sound feels more authentic somehow.

[@mariafoslihansen7801]

This is a lovley reaction. AURORA is a self-taught piano and singer. She is from norway, and she started making melodies when she was 6 years old . The words came when she was 9 or 11 years old. She is a multi talent. She can paint, dance, and make meaningful music. This new songs are very different from what we have seen of her, i recommend you to check out her older stuff first. She is in a new area, but she still sounds like her. You have to check out more of her live performances the music feels even better live because you see the art being made on the stage, and it will blow your mind everytime!! its a bit hard to give recommendations because all of her songs are beautiful but i recommend her cop26 concert she sings alot of her songs that is popular and its mostly acoustic. In that way, you also get to see her speak to the crowd and understand her as an artist and what she stands for. Aurora doesn't write about herself. She always says the music is bigger than her, and she has a longer vision about what music is and what it could do for us, it can make you dance, cry or be sad or happy. She have made a lot of songs and realised them many years after because she is realising them when she thinks the world needs it the most. Aurora is the most authentic person I think you will see in the music industry. She writes all of her songs mostly all alone. She produces them on her own terms and make her musicvideos too. Aurora herself is art. She is also very strict when it comes to her band and the people she works with she said, "I need people that don't look at the notes while playing." When she writes music, she has something to say. It has become more "political" she sings about the right to love, racism and the most important to her is mother earth as she call the world. She was mostly in the forest when she was a child all the time,alone, and she still loves it.. Her parents used a big cow bell to call her in to dinner. If you see cop26, you will understand it. When she was little, she didn't like to be with a lot of people, and she only got social media because she became an artist. She dont care about fame and has a totally other view on success than others. Us from Norway is obviously so proud of her and we think its fun thats so many can see her talent and help others to feel.she iis having a norwegian tour and people from 48 countries are coming to see her. She is just pure and so authentic. ❤

[@mariafoslihansen7801]

She also takes action in what she preaches about. every time we buy something of her brand, she plants a tree in South America. I have now planted 2 trees and It makes me feel good 💓 The way she speaks and her mind is out of this world... she can really change the world... I also recommend checking out the HAIK documentary and concert, but It is long, so if not for the channel, I recommend you do it by yourself because everyone should get to know Aurora! She is awesome

[@mariafoslihansen7801]

Her clothes are made by her sister and she designs them with her. You will see a different outfit every time it is so original

[@JanicethePotter791]

I think she sounds like an angel also.

[@Tarkus_]

That was fun! I've watched countless reactions to this cover, and this is easily one of my favorites! I love your commentary about Rasputin himself. My knowledge of his history comes mostly from this song, but I feel like you covered it pretty well. He was a pretty bad guy, but apparently had a lot of charisma, that served him well for a long time. Aurora would be a legend if she only did covers, but her greatest talent is probably her songwriting. Wow, what a talent. I hope you share this with your boy, Anthony. 🫶

[@betmo]

aurora is...aurora ❤

[@lillm6874]

Great reaction! Love this cover and her smile in the end

[@johnytwo]

yes, why not get both :)

[@oceanluv88]

She is a fairy queen

[@SaraKvammen-tx7qc]

Rasputin was truly not your average Joe.He was magical.Like Russel Brand with piercing eyes.But I guess he was consumed with his power.Aurora is a gem,truly genuine

[@jeffhall2411]

Should check out her Cover of David Bowie's "Life on Mars" ... she is amazing at anything she touches

[@whoroborous]

This is how I discovered her! ('Life on Mars' is my favorite song and I happened upon her one day while listening to it. 🙃) She's the best.

[@Aaron-nk5vv]

Check out helvegen by wardruna featuring Aurora. Then go down the Wardruna rabbit hole.

[@terrycocomazzi8201]

you need to do ' The Seed ' the official video and ' the river 'as well and so many more .. the one that got me was ' i went to far ' live on the honda stage....love her

[@paganheart70]

There is a band from Finland called TURISAS that does a great cover of this song. If you want to hear a metal version of Rasputin you must check it out.

[@CherithArtist]

You can have both from a man. It's called being well rounded.

[@mojobag01]

She is so damn tasteful.

[@TheColdfeather]

Aurora is out of the world in the positives way possible :) You should check out her song "The Seed". And to the other topic- as a woman I hate the stereotypical thing like 'men who cry are not real men' or 'women can't be strong or fight' and then we wonder why so many get depression or getting aggressiv of surpressed emotions. I appreciate any kind of human being that is honest and shows what they feels like. Showing your emotios and empathy without feeling ashamed of the toxic standards of society is the strongest thing one can do imho. :)

[@GhostlyEcheveria]

Bjork is one of Aurora's influences, and I agree with you about her vibe being similar. Bjork is actually a fan of Aurora. There is a mini concert Aurora did for KEXP Iceland, and Bjork was in the audience. The KEXP Iceland performance is mandatory viewing when it comes to the Aurora journey. I've seen Bjork live, and I'm pretty sure Aurora is the only person on earth that could top that concert experience.

[@uniquename111]

If you are going to look in to Aurora then you must check out Wardruna and Aurora - Helvegen (Live). It is a pagan song that will change your life. You can find the leadsinger Einar Selvik songs in the Viking serie. Aurora and him together with this pagan song is breathtaking.

[@Geralt26]

This cover was made as a challenge in P3 station within 1h (they rehearsed like 15 minutes). She is amazing :).

[@johnytwo]

15 or 45? It is funny, how these tales circulate in the discussions :)

[@Geralt26]

@@johnytwo 15. She wrote post on YT and I saw it and this info is directly from Aurora. And she wrote using word rehearsal = it was a little longer probably because she needs to make conception of cover. But these chelenges was within a 1h. And I am a later source of this info. One person even asked me to point a place where it come from and I made a screenshot (still have it).

[@stacyr.8585]

Yes to the Bjork comparison. They both held on to very folk-ish sounds from their respective cultures while performing their art with little care for the public's opinion. Check out Through the Eyes of a Child from her Live at Nidarosdomen Concert. I guarantee it will give you chills.

[@jacquisampson-marat5277]

Wardruna Helvegen. Aurora is featured on that.

[@sherrymitchell9908]

Pls do The Murder Song, live performance. Seriously had me in tears.

[@horsehollerer]

Ha, I love that you did this. It's great, isn't it? Cheers.

[@fuddy_duddy]

Ypu should see her video for Scarborough Faire. ❤❤

[@celinel9750]

Lady here, about lady falling for the brut in history,,, who wrote those story that were saying that lady loved it that way? ho wait... men, yes men wrote it that way ;-)

[@Razamaniac]

Rasputin was a monk and a preacher and a mystic, and a wizard and yeah he could do whatever he want, having sex with the queen, her daughters, her chambermaidens and everything female in the Russian palace, incluidng cats. 🤣 And yes he was a brute, he survived, gunshots, blade slashes and stabs, poisoning, and in the end when they binded hima and cast him in a frozen lake he reached the top with his binds broken, yet he didn't reach the surface fast enoigh so that was his demise, but yeah, a phenomenal -if -not-epic-level real life vilain.

[@PonchoSaGo]

She really is the 5th element haha and Aurora has said before that one of her biggest inspirations is Björk

[@15Daniels]

Aurora is Norwegian!

[@a22legend]

You gotta listen to her Scarborough fair cover. It's another one of my favorites

[@Toxicdemon2]

That is Mila Jovovisch And the Plays LeeLoo. The Supreme being. So Yeah pretty mush Aurora

[@whoroborous]

MULTIPASS

[@borisbrosowski6630]

Rasputin is such a fascinating character. He was fiercely against WW1 because he was convinced that the Tsar would not survive this (Quote: "none of your children will remain alive for more than two years." (in 1916) and wanted peace with Germany. This is why he was killed. Finland, at that point of time, was part of Russia, so it is fitting that Aurora would cover this song.

[@ordinaryvalley]

Aurora is a time traveller. She could be the princess trapped in the tower and she escaped it and she is here singing to us :)

[@TriScorp]

You have a daughter so you should know her voice well, she does the winter spirit part in Frozen 2

[@TheSpydyr]

You need to do Murder 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. It's amazing and Aurora kills that song.

[@ragnarmyhr7238]

Aurora is Norwegian. There's several of international Norwegian female artists. Girl in Red , Sigrid and Dagny. Check out these ones.

[@beanie237]

please check more of her stuff out, she is such a beautiful human being , murder song live, running with the wolves are two of my favourite of hers , also eyes of a child live is a good one, she does an amazing version of Helvegen live with another of my fav bands Wardruna ( they do viking music , might not be your thing but any style of music with great drums I love )

[@leavemealoneimjustfreespirted]

More please ❤️

[@elinkeykramme6511]

Im from Denmark, must admit, need both a Viking and a knitting man, most my Girl friends, would love a man, who talks about his feelings.its a strength

U have to hear her Bowie Life on Mars!

[@sonja3204]

Whoop whoop 8% gang

[@antonymash9586]

Something about her reminds me of Kate Bush. If you haven't checked her out yet, do yourself a favour.

[@MBella123]

Btw, I don’t know much about Rasputin but what I’ve read/heard is he was kind of a healer and the Russian queen contacted him to help her son who had hemophilia. This is just the surface level of the story

[@celinel9750]

Bjork is relevent, they both are ''special' about voice some mention Enya (to who Aurora listen a lot when she was youg, also Leonard Cohen and David Bowie on the song writing) for the rest she is just UNIC. if you realy want to hear her as an angle you have to listen ''It happen Quiet' Live at the current, chill garanty, listen to an Angel telling the worst story ... kzbin.info/www/bejne/b4aQf2mCpt-Xf68&ab_channel=TheCurrent

I would recommend to react to “The Seed” by Aurora as well. ❤

"Murder Song 54321"...the LIVE VERSION IS AAAHHHMAZING!! (2015 Nobel Peace Prize Concert) I really hope you react to that one!!!

[@marlondasilva2475]

Nice😮

[@sorenm.lairdsorries7547]

When asked if there is another Ren, some people answer there is AURORA. Yes, we listen to Björk, too. The emotional soft guys get the ladies, too. There is a whole life happening after whatever first night, you know 😀 and it might be worth having a caretaker, not a fighter as the lone quality.

[@zanlehman5208]

Aurora, “The Seed”

[@Nayz13]

I loved this song as a kid and I’ve loved Aurora’s version for a while now, such a beautiful cover. I also love old school Bjork.. not so much her new stuff. And nope, the brutes only get us girls short term, they’re not keepers!

[@sigrid129]

As a woman I want a man who is not afraid of me

[@ostensibleMuse]

Aurora is in a class of her own in my opinion, like a Ren of her own genre, I understand the reference to Bjork... also in a scene of her own. The best video I feel is her show at Nidaros Cathedral, it's her full performance: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jom5qHmsoLOHe8k

[@dubbayabird6680]

The answer to your question is, both 😊.

[@ostensibleMuse]

Speaking of the 5th Element. The lady in the orange hair is Milla Jovovich, she is also in the Resident Evil Movies. You should check out her collaboration with Puscifer, another band with Maynard from Tool as the singer, in the song "The Mission (M is for Milla mix)". She has a wonderful voice: kzbin.info/www/bejne/g6O0gHWZe8t4oJI

Did you say only 8% of your subscribers are female?! How can that be true? Can you distinguish between subscribers who are current listeners and those who were listening more in 2021-22 (but maybe not so much now)? This is an interesting topic. I find it shocking to think those stats are current!
