Of all the people reacting to Aurora that I’ve seen, you are by far the person with the most pleasant voice to listen to, and the person with the most well articulated and insightful interpretation of her lyrics/meaning. Like someone said, this is obviously not an exact science, but you’ve really found the balance between what you think she’s trying to convey, and your own experience. I didn’t even mind the pausing, since it’s a pleasure listening to you 😊. Thank you!

[@kevdenn]

Great reaction, I hope that Aurora gets to see this. I'm sure she would be so happy of your understanding comments. Thanks.

[@esalehtismaki]

Thank you for not saying "motherfucker". I'm not ADHD, but us HSP's are often mistaken to be, because of our inability to sit still and focus on pointless shit in an unpleasant environment. I saw eating maggots as all the small talk and other stupid crap we have to swallow, but you can take all the nausea it causes in you and puke it all out and make art of it, like a finger painting or a damn good song. So pretty much the same as you. This song is much more complex than people realize. It has a great arc from the serenity in the beginning to the explosion of positivity in the end, and then there's things like "and it suits me just fine" coming out of the blue.

[@Oldperson-wt3ui]

OMFG!! This is a brilliant analysis, I never connected the words to being happy in your daydreams, it makes so much sense now. She is a lyrical genius, I love her music, subbed and liked

[@julimoreno173]

I love your interpretation about the vomiting. When this video was posted here in KZbin for the first time, I wrote a comment explaining that this original idea for the video really made sense, the vomiting and the lyrics go side by side. How? Expressing the toxicity of the way we live (we become nightime dreamers, street walkers, small talkers) by vomiting those things you are not, but you are forced to live because of how the world is (or appears to be). For me, she is calling us to go inside, rediscover our true self and express ourselves in a deep way. And love is the ultimate way of living: "All I ever known is what I dream about when I'm sober, never turn away from love, before the love you have is over". And Yes Alexandra! I like you and I have subscribed to your channel

[@antxoncarbonero]

Thanks for this video. An honest and thoughtful reaction. I also love this song, and the line "nothing will die while we are here" is one of those Auroras lines that have stayed in my head since the first time I heard the song. But I never quite got exactly what she meant with it. Even considered asking her if I ever had the chance. 😂

[@avedic]

I agree about that line. I love that specific line....and I kinda sorta _feel_ what it means, if that makes sense? But I'm not sure if I actually _know_ what it means. But that's usually the case with great lyrics.

[@gertwestblad9052]

I really enjoy your reactions and reflections on Aurora and life in general. Aurora has such meaningfull and beautiful lyrics, they should be on the curriculum in every school..😊

[@papa2bdj]

I once heard that, as long as we speak of someone who has passed that they will still live on.

[@Tarkus_]

Sorry for your loss. I've seen this video before, but never really gave much thought to the meaning behind it before seeing your intepretation. Whether you nailed the intent with complete accuracy is immaterial (and impossible to know, really), because you nailed it for yourself, and that's what's important. And your interpretation made a lot of sense and was very interesting and thought-provoking. Putting aside the lyrics and their meaning, this song has been an absolute blast to see her do live (on video only, unfortunately). I think the first time I saw her do it live was probably the HAIK concert, and it was absolutely amazing and full of energy. But I think on this current tour she's taken it to an even higher level, dancing all around the stage. She has finally started using a cordless mic on stage, and that gives her even more freedom to dance around, and wow, is she taking advantage of that! And Daydream makes for an awesome show closer.

[@bjornarsimonsen7592]

Holy shit, this was one of the best reviews of an Aurora song I've seen so far and I've seen most of them. Thank you.

[@Alexandrasaurus]

[@Einyen]

Here is a fun little fact about Daydreamer: The song was released with the ADKOH Step 2 album on June 7th 2019, but she already talked about the concept in a podcast that was released on Sep 8th 2017 (and recorded sometimes between June and Sep 2017): youtu . be / H9lO034MNKc&t=611s (CC for English Subs) "So I hope we never stop dreaming. We only dream when we sleep, we should dream when we are awake."

[@AutumnsMxS]

It's so interesting to note that we're taught (at least in my country) to say "I'm fine thank you" as a starting point of learning English. It's really suffocating to see it constrained like that and being instilled to say it as if the words mean nothing anymore, I can't remember which interview but aurora has mentioned this saying "but so many of us aren't fine" and I find it so interesting to see you make parallels with her train of thought! This is a bit of a long comment, pardon me, but I usually only watch first reactions to aurora's music, but your videos on her has changed that for me! They are so inviting and meaningful and they delve into her world so much more than one could upon first listen, so thank you for making these! Definitely gonna stick around for a while :D Also, you have the most loveliest and softest voice! Perfect to draw along to ♥️

[@panchiolarranaga1616]

Aurora is Wise, for her age and maybe about the way we've been trained to think, which is a big fucking fuckup cause we've been lied to and trained to follow some sonovabich's orders and probably sick and greedy wishes suddenly some one comes that speaks to our souls and remind us who we really are and what this Gift of Life is all about..... in songs! and this beautiful creature came to me with these words, when some one in my life went away here it is kzbin.info/www/bejne/aZ-QlYCul66kgKM I fucking love Aurora.....she came into my life in the right moment......I found her back in 2016 or maybe I should say she found me..............we've been blessed trust me Sis

[@ravendebonair]

So many thoughts.... You had me hooked and subscribed by the time you finished the MF section. I love facetiousness at it's finest and with some dry humor mixed in. Randomly found this video, and I'm so glad I did. I love your perspective on being free from small talk and actually getting into the intensity, passion and intrigue of conversation. I'll be diving in for more of this, relatable thoughts I couldn't get into words as well as you did and the space you made. Aurora has been a massive influence on me since I (belatedly) found her last year. But like you described, there's so much intent on each small piece that carries a lot of impact, perspective, and in many cases healing. Being so free with emotions, diving deep, and showing others they aren't alone and bringing them close is a massive power Aurora has with her music. Almost indescribable. But I thoroughly enjoyed this reaction... I hadn't seen the video yet so your reaction afterwards made me really think about how I watched it and how things she shows can be applicable so many places. It's a gift.

[@annehyden1088]

i soooo agree with you, Daydreaming should be celebrated not punished. You are great. Thanks for this reaction.

[@Roy-mw5js]

Love Aurora, so glad I stumbled upon her. ❤

[@john-toregundersen2655]

What you said.... Thanks Alexandra

[@kentovewagenes1141]

That was absolutely brilliant ❤️ The best reaction i have seen for ages ❤️ And that video was so amazing ❤️ The vomiting and making art with it.... kinda made me think of that is a way of heal your trauma... get out all the toxic energy in your body and make beautiful energy out of it... that was incredible and very beautiful ❤️ I will subscribe for sure 👍 Looking forward to the next one ❤️

[@Alexandrasaurus]

💛💚💛

[@Roy-mw5js]

I love Aurora If I see her live then I can die in peace😂

[@annehyden1088]

this reaction is the best reaction i have ever seen. Thank you !

[@Alexandrasaurus]

Thank you - I'm glad you enjoyed it 💛💚💛

[@thathawaiiandude787]

It was the second song/video I ever saw of Aurora….about a year, year and a half ago which parts of this video was edited….and, I was fully falling down the Aurora Aksnes rabbit hole after that. (*the first video was “Runaway” from the 2015 Nobel Peace Prize concert….that I only caught by accident on a vocal coach’s KZbin channel who was going to breakdown the song) Hands down…my favorite artist of all time. Moving Linda Ronstadt, Eagles, Annie Lennox, Fleetwood Mac, Sade, Kate Bush,ELO, Billy Joel, Chicago/Peter Cetera, Toto and Sam Cooke …all notch downwards. One of the most amazingly beautiful souls in life and arts I’ve ever been blessed to experience. Love this young woman🎼🫶🏽🤙🏾✌🏾💕🥰🤘🏾

[@trondfiskeseth2559]

YES i do like you :)) I also like your ability to convey your rich inner life to words and pictures that we can understand and feel with you. It's your gift to us ;)) 😇

[@Alexandrasaurus]

🧡💜🧡💜

[@steinmortensandbech8756]

Yes. Yes! I just had to return to *the* pinnacle of KZbin reactions, or rather, of any review on any medium... Grandiloquent, you may say, but no, it is just my attempt to convey my feelings and gratitude for you and Aurora. This is pure healing... 🙏❣

[@lillm6874]

Howdy motherf..kers!🤗 She’s had a “bad” influence on me too 😂😂❤️ Great reaction to our Queen🤗 I love this song❤️

[@Rackelhane]

I`m fine thank you...How are you? You are wonderful and so are Aurora. Thank you.

[@VibekeHansen-rz3tu]

Yes..Yes.. Yes..❤

[@kgeckon7953]

This is exactly what Aurora was talking about when she called the people around her beautiful when they listen to her music.

[@Alexandrasaurus]

Thank you so much 💚

[@kgeckon7953]

@@Alexandrasaurus Thank you for sharing your experience, it was very beautiful 🙏🏻😌

[@octo5042]

This is brilliant. Thank you for reacting to this video! I hope that us warriors and weirdos can spread the word of this music video and maybe some more people can make some videos on it 😊❤

[@steinmortensandbech8756]

Thank you for a deeply moving and insightful reaction to Aurora's Daydreamer. It is one of my favorites of hers. I'll have to admit I teared up 🥹❤‍🔥 Aurora does this to me. When both you and Aurora appear together like this; it's a guarantee ☺ I look forward to immerse myself in more of your reactions and music, and let Alan Turing (I believe) look out for you still... 🙏

[@Alexandrasaurus]

🧡💛💜💛🧡

[@nevamoore5192]

You made me giggle from the very start. I think I'll enjoy this reaction. When I saw what they posted as the official video, it was really unsatisfying for me because daydreamer is such a great song, seeing this now absolved that. Now everything is as it should be. I loved hearing your insights, you are very perceptive.

[@ricimosny3169]

I never see this version , thx for this . A reaction straight from the heart .I'm glad I clicked on your response. (sry if something is wrong , googe translator made this coment) and yes its fuc... briliant

[@Vanadis-]

Thank you this great reaction. :) When I first watched original music video, I have thought that it is powerful and very "aurorian". It is a crime that they didn't release it. :/

[@graemesandstrom5654]

So sorry to hear about your little brother’s death Alexandra! What a wonderful analysis of this great song and thanks for giving me insight into the line “Nothing can die while we are here!” It finally makes sense to me. Thanks for not making a “reaction video” but instead presenting your interpretation in a very logical and insightful way and above all giving context to the lyrics. I totally agree with the small talk thing. I had a chance to meet AURORA about 5 weeks ago. For my wife and I it was the 3rd time we had seen her in concert THAT WEEK. At the end of the WOMAD concert she did signings. As we patiently waited to see her I though of what I could possibly say to her to sum up how I felt (ie no small talk). In the end I told her that she was the best artist on the planet and that although that I am 70 both her music and what she has to say is very meaningful to me. At this she looked me in the eye, held my hand tightly and said , “It’s wonderful to meet a kindred spirit!” I’m still on a high from that!

[@Alexandrasaurus]

Thank you for your kind words 🥰 and what a lovely story 💛💚💛

[@lillia5333]

I liked and subscribed! 😄

[@LaRoxi1122]

Me suscribo porque yo también soy neurodivergente, me encanta Aurora, me da paz y me inspira su torrecilla de marfil dinámica. Yo también vivo en una, y creo que es el único lugar donde logro ser feliz: cuando escribo. Me encantó que el algoritmo me haya traído hasta tu maravillosa interpretación de Aurora. Un abrazo desde Argentina ❤

[@terjesovik]

Interesting reaction! One must assume that this version was approved by Aurora and that it was indeed someone else that stopped it like you suggest. The last lines of the song make more sense to me now!

[@stephengarbutt4759]

I'm a dreamer, I often daydreamed in school (many years ago). This chorus is spot on. I'm slightly autistic, always been on the outside, not really interested in joining the "crowd", and often felt like an alien in this world. Aurora is like fresh air. Not sure if I totally agree with all your interpretations here, but that's ok, your thoughts are interesting. All the best 💖

[@paulkossak7761]

I really don't care about Arouras' music videos, I belive to fully appreciate her you must see her live performances.

[@cassieme4806]

♥

[@stianhaugsrud3495]

Why don't you have friends, the most interesting person on the Internet? I'm sure you and Aurora would have become best friends, say hello if she hears off her :) Btw very great analysis and interpretation, totally agree, I also think this has to do with the record label.....,

[@Alexandrasaurus]

💛💚💛

[@hakanandersson1276]

Hello ! Alexandra. I like you . It´s interesting to hear what you interpret of Auroras song. but for me are the lyrics not the most important with Aurora. For me it is that you talk and show us what you feels about her that is important. I interpret her lyrics very often in a very different way. As Aurora says. that she wanted us to analysed her music with our heart not our brain, or something like that. I definetly do it by my heart, and i never discuss it with someone other than myself. When i see reaction and analytic videos i listen what their say, but for me it is what you show with all your body and voice warmth that get me. It seems that you love this song as much as i do. I hope that you get something out of this rambling And to continue to excuse me, English is not my main language. I love your cover by Aurora and i should se your song tonight. Have a nice day dear!!

[@Alexandrasaurus]

Thank you very much Håkan 🧡💛💚💛🧡

[@avedic]

Who told you not to say that word?? I won't say it in this comment....cuz I don't want to anger the KZbin AI Nanny. But Aurora herself.....uses that word ALL the time. She hosted an online music festival during the pandemic....where she played host, and was utterly adorable...and started one segment by saying, _"Howdy mother----ers!"_ I think _some_ Aurora fans(mostly older men it seems) have this cringey obsession with "protecting her innocence." When in reality she's more intelligent, witty, and worldly than they will ever realize. She's not merely some pure fragile baby girl angel singer who we "must protect at all cost"... -__-

[@avedic]

haha.....I posted all that, then resumed the video....only to see you reference that exact same moment. Well done. ^__^

[@Alexandrasaurus]

@@avedic ha! But you're right - she an intellectual, and you don't have to watch much backstage stuff to know that she has an extremely strong character.

[@simonearnshaw6531]

Beautiful reaction to a mother fucking special talent. I am convinced she is a forest fairy that got blown up big by Gandalf to save middle earth from the Trolls.

[@Freak_a_zoid]

MF’ers? Lol, I laughed my ass off when you said that. Don’t change be you. Anyone doesn’t like it then they can go suck an egg.

[@vincentcarrot]

OK. After the first 13 seconds I must pause and refer you to Aurora_stuff's Learn The Alphabet With Aurora -video... Edit: Nevermind.

[@i_am_m3384]

Unfortunately the 'original' video was putting down. TBH I really regret, that I didn't saved that video, when is was online. Therefore my (selfish) question is, did you downloaded the original for editing and maybe stored it? If yes, do you feel comfortable to share it with others?

[@Vanadis-]

The video is up, just type "Aurora daydreamer" and look for a channel "Exist for love". :)

[@panchiolarranaga1616]

words are words labels are labels how you use them makes the difference.....

Hey Alex hope to see you soon

[@monkeyjames8401]

Have you listened to "Your Blood" (AURORA) - new song? I have (what I think is) a good interpretation of it. I will add my brief synopsis, as a reply to this comment; if you are interested. I don't want to spoil your initial take on it.
