Thank you , for your absolutely wonderful comments !!! Absolutely love reading them

[@Einyen]

You seem to like "Little Boy In The Grass", and it is a great performance, but this Nidarosdomen version sounds almost upbeat. Actually it is a sad/somber song about remembering the victims of the Utøya massacre in Norway in 2011 and about being over the grief. I suggest you either see this version privately or react to it if you want, it is like a different song, very somber and emotional but also very beautiful: youtu .be/1kiV704Nd_I Here is a quote from Aurora's wiki about the song: "Today is the day. 22nd of July. It's been 4 years since you left us. Since all of you left us. how time flies, we even find ourselves forgetting for a moment, nearly moving on.. Not because we forget you, but because we remember to live. But know that I will always remember you, and everyone that went down with you. I will think of love, and send love to those who needs it this today. I hope no one is crying alone. Rest in peace my friend. You are free now." - AURORA

Many stars do concerts with Orchestra near the end of their career, AURORA did it at the start. 😁 This concert is part of the world's history, in my honest opinion.

[@octo5042]

Indeed. It should go down in the history books!!

[@Abbadonhades]

"Walking in the air" is the sound of the christmases of my childhood. Pure nostalgia, deep beauty and a longing for companionship.

[@John-gv2ug]

This concert is a pure masterpiece in every respect, concept, venue, staging, sound engineering and performance. Added to this Aurora looks as though she just stepped out of a Botticelli painting. Simply sublime perfection.

[@ElevenBC]

This girl is, without doubt, one of the most important people on the planet today.

THE most

[@dulcealvarez6071]

Aurora's music it's like that room in howarts it will find you when you need it the most, also, welcome to the healthiest Fandom you'll find, welcome to the queendom

[@stephenm3536]

This is a 1000 year old cathedral built when they used stone to reflect and ampliphi sound so the celebrant could be heard throughout the cathedral. They are performing from the acoustical focus point of the cathedral so much of the sound quality you hear is the sound of the cathedral itself responding to the performance. It is truly both magical and mystical.

[@nuts6741]

Hi there Fern! I haven't watched the full video yet because I wanted to stop and talk about Little Boy in the Grass. It's one of my most favorite songs so I wanted to give you the meaning behind it! Little Boy in the Grass is based off an attack in Norway on July 22, 2011. It's said that more than 70 people were killed. Someone that Aurora loved died in the massacre so Aurora felt the need to write a song about it. If you listen to the lyrics closely, you'll understand what they mean. Anyway, thank you for another great reaction as always! I can't wait to finish the video🌞

[@jonathan4353]

It was a really awful tragedy striking one of the best countries on earth

[@nuts6741]

@@jonathan4353 It really was. I'm not Norwegian but I've always always always been so fond of it, such a beautiful place. So finding out about the massacre really hit me. Aurora really showed me so many emotions that cant i coudlnt put into words.

[@jonathan4353]

@@nuts6741 yes true....

[@TomTomson81]

A single man killed 77 people with bombs and gunfire that day. Throughout the day, he struck in 2 different locations. His motive was xenophobia.

[@arvidhoffgard621]

This tragedy is so unthinkable so difficult to understand when the victims are such young people. Is a wound in Norwegian history that will never heal. The average age of 69 dead on Utøya is 19.6 years. Youngest 2 was only 14 years old. Why???

[@kippys1]

One of the greatest concerts I have ever seen! So many sublime moments! The interplay of AURORA's vocals with the various instruments and the choir!

[@Womberto]

This girl will change the world. Her best is yet to come.

[@Nightmare-ee7fn]

Already waiting for it

[@SallyB_23]

I believe "Little Boy In The Grass" was written by AURORA about a tragic event in Norway that happened a while ago where a shooter killed several children (like what happens here in America a lot, unfortunately)

[@valleman5456]

I used to think she sang “love is why” in it happend quiet, as to her explaining why it happend. Now that i know it’s “love is wild” it feels like a new song which is such a blessing

[@saradinizlyra9579]

...querida, Fern, quero agradecer do fundo do coração pelo seu vídeo. Já havia assistido ao vídeo desse recital e sentido grande carinho por Aurora e a delicadeza e impacto de suas músicas, mas seu vídeo, suas "adições" me ofereceram material para uma imersão maravilhosa em cada uma das músicas desse maravilhoso concerto. Foi como se descobrisse predras preciosas e rios de luzes em paisagens que já havia percorrido renovando meu olhar para cada "simples" pedra do caminho. Estou extasiada, enquanto acompanho sua jornada pelas melodias que Aurora nos oferece como "plataforma" para a expansão de nossa consciência. Por tudo o que me ofereceu nesse vídeo, sou grata. :)

[@InBottles]

The Soft Universe note! It sounds so otherworldly but yes I notice in every performance of it she does that little trick to make her sound echo right in front of it! genius. Check out the Soft Universe - Warrior- live in Paris (recorded by a fan) she does it the same way :)))

SCOTTishMOB!! probably the most famous Aurora reaction commenter evahhhh 😁😁😉

[@brynmilford1343]

seriously.. did have to chuckle when jhtreacts said you were living in his comments and he wanted to feed you snacks 🤣

[@avedic]

I literally remember the date I first saw this..... March 15, 2020. I remember that because it was THE first thing I'd ever seen/heard of Aurora. My work had _just_ shut down due to Covid, I was stuck at home worried and weirded out, and I randomly saw this concert by this girl I'd never heard of. After the first LINE when she sang "there WAAAAS a boy...." I was like OK, I'm done, what...IS....this? who...IS...she?? One hour later, I was a genuinely changed person, a totally different kind of human. ;P That was 2 and a half years ago....and now I'm basically the most ridiculous Aurora super fan ever. But it was this concert that started it all. Looking back on it, how lucky was I? To start with THIS concert of all things? There are many artists and bands who's music I love, a handful who's music means more to me than anything, and maybe 3 artists....who I genuinely love, artists who have completely changed the course of my mental and emotional and creative and spiritual life. For me I think that would be Tool, Sigur Ros, and Aurora. Her music, and her humanity...who she is as a person, has had such a positive impact on my life, I'm just beyond grateful. Sometimes I honestly question if I'd still be alive right now if I hadn't discovered her.....

[@PaulKratovil]

Thank you! I was so looking forward to this reaction. It was cool, huh? Magical! Something about this performance changed something in me. I know that sounds dramatic but it did. It's hard to explain... Does anybody else feel this way?

[@hakanandersson1276]

Hello Fern. Great reaction as always. Fun to see someone see it for the first time as hole. I have seen it so many times so i am most thrilled to see you react to it. See ya soo and gratulera på födelsedagen kära själahelare. 💓💓💓

[@justjulie37]

Thank you so much for doing this Fern. Really appreciate it. I hope you have a wonderful day. Aurora is so amazing. Happy Birthday to our little Warrior.

[@LoofyLu]

Little Boy In The Grass is a song she wrote about a friend of hers that passed away in the terrorist attack on Utøya here in Norway.

PLEASE react to Aurora's documentary "nothing is eternal " 🙏✨

[@kellyperez8932]

I love everything about this concert, that stage fits perfectly for all the potential of her beautiful voice and I just fall in love with everything about her again and again ♥️

[@arvidhoffgard621]

Good to have you back with a new Auroa reaction. This beautiful concert on her birthday is perfect. Notice there is a certain respect in the performance in the mighty Nidarosdomen. On May 29, 2021, Silja posted a photo of her and AURORA, saying, "an era is over, and it's time for other things. Thank you for the adventure", announcing that she will no longer perform in AURORA's band

[@maxsteiner1964]

You can really hear how much Auroras technique has progressed when you compaire her voice from this to her voice now. One thing she has overcome, was her tendency to get a bit nasal in certain vocalisations. That, you will find, is now gone. Aurora is an absolute natural talent but she is also a very hard worker and a disiplined professional. A true giant despite her young age. My fav artist of all time.

[@brynmilford1343]

definitely.. this is my least favourite version of It happened Quiet.. don't get me wrong, it's still good, but it seems a bit frantic compared to the Current, KEXP, and HAIK versions

[@SantaCecilie]

,@@brynmilford1343 She is of course improving all the time. But there are also other factors at hand. She always responds differently to different settings. This was in a large medieval cathedral with very special acoustics, pipe organ and a string orchestra. Very different from a modern stage setting or outdoors.

[@maxsteiner1964]

@@soleywolfgangsdottir Maybe sad for us but not so much for her, I belive. Aurora has said on many occations, that she really didnt like performing in front of others and she could get physical sick in the start of her carreer. Now, she is enjoying herself on stage. I prefer that Aurora is now is enjoying what she does.

[@evyhodne3358]

@@soleywolfgangsdottir I partly agree with you. I don't think the nasal parts are bad at all, I think she expresses whatever she wants in the moment, and the voice is her favorite instrument to do so. She experiments with different sounds to touch out emotions in the way she wants. Her latest performances seem like they come from a happier place than some of her older stuff. I love that she is happier now with what she does, than she was before. Still her sadder, more frantic+++ performances were more heart-wrenching to me. I guess the performances just have different qualities. And I am sure she still has the ability to touch our emotions in all kinds of ways.

Some may have already said this in the comments, but "little boy in the grass" is a song about her friend and 68 other people, half of them children, were killed in the terror attack at Utoya. This is the only presentation of the song i am able to listen to, all the other ones (esp Mahogany session) bring me to tears, but this one brings me hope, hope for the future as long as we stand together ageist hatred.

[@FernStone]

That is truly so sad . I’m kind of glad I didn’t know when I was watching it , because I might of got too emotional . But I’m glad I know now . 😕 also the feeling of hope , is so important so I’m glad this version can give you that feeling .

Hi Fern. I have watched this concert so many times that I literally know all Auroras movements in it by heart. I really think this one may be the high point of all her performances although many others certainly are great in their own right. And my favorite is Soft Universe, there is just something about this version of that song that strikes true for me. Especially that primal scream in the end... well, it IS a sex song :)

I was wondering who was going to do this for Aurora's birthday. Glad it was you! Great job. Her Nidarosdomen concert has to be the most beautiful video on all of KZbin. You can't help but to feel something, some kind of emotional. I've watched it countless times over the last couple of years, and always happy to watch it again. How is Aurora not a Disney princess already? Lol! She's absolutely magical. And happy birthday to Aurora! 💗🎂💗

[@matthewgilbert261]

I found that bit from 56:15 really interesting. I wouldn't have known what was going on there vocally without you explaining it for me. Watching your long-format videos is an opportunity to get new perspectives on performances I'm familiar with.

I always interpreted the vocalization at the end of the Through the eyes of a child as a literal cry of a baby turned into music.

you'll be Glad to know that there is an acoustic version for Murder song (5, 4, 3, 2, 1) on the deluxe (literally nobody listens to the studio version i dont think hahaha)

[@specificsoup]

Aurora’s songs she wrote very young, she would write the melody at a younger age (ie Lucky at 9? Or her songs she wrote at 11-12), but the final lyrics you hear now were written a few years later. Still as a child or young teen, still incredible, but I wanna clarify that bc sometimes people talk about it like, “how was a 9 year old writing lyrics about these things or thinking about these topics?” Either way it’s incredible. I mean she’s .. basically a musical prodigy in my book. But just wanted to clarify that.

I remember when you listened to the All My Demons album and saying (like most reactions I've seen of the album) that you were going to skip the acoustic versions, and I thought "she probably won't care for Murder Song lol".

i feel like on days when you're just not feeling it and feeling really down and crappy, its magic to know that we have this concert to grab out of our back pockets to immerse ourselves in and feel what we're feeling but in the comfort and surrounding that this creates, we get transported into this small little world and pretend we're there for a hot minute and then get lost and not know what to do when the concert ends 😂😅🙇‍♀️

I totally agree 🌸🎶 it’s breathtaking .

[@glacieractivity]

I had to split up watching this (there is this football thing going on, and there has been a sad passing in close family). Aurora does not enjoy birthday gifts much, as we know. So it made me smile wondering if it is us nagging you to watch this in its entirety who gave you a gift - or it is you gifting us by letting us relive it through your "first-impression experience". I landed on a happy tie 😀 You lived, as expected, up to the challenge. I know for a fact that the first time I saw this concert I was both non-reactive and non-responsive. Since I think it was the first time I experienced her going "full analogue orchestration" in concert (she was of course famous for her "stripped" versions already). It was lovely to view you experience something I know well "through the eyes of a child" (aka: for the first time, not as childish).

I like both versions, always have. To me the studio version focuses and plays with the beat, the musical part, and the lyrics take a back seat, and the bonus track is all about the lyrics.
