It's like she's saying: "I don't think you were really listening. Here, let me show you what Bowie actually meant", and then goes on to blow my mind with not just a rendition, but a version so original it's basically a *new* "Life On Mars".

Sometimes an artist comes along and when you hear them for the first time they simply blow you away this happened to me nearly 7 year’s ago when by chance I heard a young girl singing a song on a tv advert,the song was an oasis track called Half the world away and the artist of course was Aurora. For me this was the start of a journey with the most amazing and talented singer songwriter I’ve ever heard since then I’ve had the pleasure of seeing Aurora’s live performances 3 times and trust me she is without doubt the best live performer I’ve ever seen. Never has anyone moved my emotions like this young girl the love that she has for her music her songs her little children as she likes to call them is spellbinding and truly just like her mother said a medicine for everyone. Aurora simply is the essence of what the art of music should be all about with a catalog of songs filled with lyrics that makes you think deeply about life and the world we live in. At my age of 66 I’m truly blessed to have her music in my life. Aurora you are a Genius ❤️

I was going to see her live for the first time in june last year, in her home town Bergen. I have seen EVERYTHING on tv and youtube, and eaven read intervjues in newspaper... I was so ready, and I knew what it would be like..... I was VERY wrong...... Within the first song she had made me look like a dork.... Standing there with my mouth open, slightly blue in my face, she made me forget to breathe.... I could not beleve it... She was eaven better than I had expected! I don't know to explain it.. It was like having looked at a video of a wonderful fireplace, but nothing can compare to actually sit in front of it and feel it! It felt like she played to a group of old friends...... My next concert was in Arendal, and this time I really knew what she was going to be like, so I was delighted to have my wife and 16yo son with me.... I was wrong again! She was eaven better! The third concert was in Oslo, this time I knew I don't know anything 😂. This time I found out that she actually is human..... She was not feeling 100% ok, and she told us..... But compare to anybody else she is in a league of her own.... At the Aurora scale: Bergen was 9 of 10, Arendal 10, Oslo "only" 7, 5. Other concert in 2022: A-ha 5, and Sigrid 7,5. I can't wait, in july she is coming to Kongsberg, only 20 minutes from where I live!

Her cover of Across the Universe was the first time I ever saw Aurora or heard her perform (she plays the keys on that one too). I was instantly and utterly captivated, and have been ever since. It's the only cover of a Beatles song - anywhere, any time, by anybody - that I consider better than the original, and that's one of my favorite Beatles songs. She is a phenomenal artist and an extraordinary human being.

I have not seen another artist who has the level of musical intuition, knowing exactly what to do and when to ensure that a rendition of a song uniquely excels, as Aurora possesses. She even does it with the different slants that she puts on her own songs. I think that we simply must appreciate that Aurora is beyond excellent with every aspect of her musical abilities. As so many of her fans say, Aurora is the embodiment of one of her album titles, she really is "A Different Kind Of Human".

Lovely reaction🤗 Aurora takes this song to another level, you really pay attention to the lyrics, so beautiful ❤️ Aurora found an old electric piano in the attic when she was 6 years old, and the power button was broken so she had to keep pressing it in with one hand and play with the other 😳 And at that age she started writing music without lyrics, she added lyrics (English) at the age of 9. She’s self taught when it comes to singing and playing piano, and her family didn’t know about her talent until she was about 14 years old ❤️

I have the impression that your camera was for a moment as emotional as you were. You held back the tears, but your eyes got a little watery. Her story with the piano is very interesting. She thinks she doesn't play very well. There is even a video of her giving a concert where she makes mistakes and apologizes in public. But that's Aurora... I mean .... the end result of what she does is far beyond the sum of all her talents, because she's almost excellent, but in everything. The result is just perfect. Perfect, but yet human. Maybe that's her key: she touches our humanity at the deepest level. I knew I was going to love this reaction, I knew that this performance was exceptional and that you could only see it, feel it... And I was not disappointed. It was beautiful. Her, you, the reaction... This was really a very good moment.

Such a special talent. I am a HUGE Bowie fan and it takes an enormous amount of talent to hold a candle to his work. She has… dare I say… surpassed the original in some ways. I think Mr. Bowie would be a huge fan of hers. It’s sad to know they’ll never collaborate because what a thing that would be! But we’re blessed to live in a time where we can appreciate the talents of both artists, one showing admiration for the other. What a performance. I was right there with you. This one just attacked the emotions. Such a captivating soul. She does SO MUCH with so little. I can’t wrap my head around it. She’s profound.

As covers go, this one is exceptional for Aurora. Most of her covers are Triple J quickies, or similar, where she and the band have an hour to practice beforehand. Teardrop was one of those. She's sung Life on Mars at least several times, and likely many times, and I think that makes the difference in the performance. This song, by Aurora, was featured on a TV show called Girls. I haven't seen the show, it's just a tidbit of info. She also performed this on Howard Stern.

Then a couple weeks after the release of the music video, she did a meet and greet in Beijing and sang it stripped down to just an acoustic guitar and her vocals, totally different from the wild ride of the studio version. Anyway, hope life is treating you good, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

Aurora is amazing at changing cover songs and making them completely her own: "Aurorarising" them, so you would think they were hers, if you didn't know. This is the best version of this cover, but there is another version from the Howard Stern show which is also great, and one from the cathedral (Nidarosdomen), but in those 2 versions she does not play the piano herself. She also "Aurorarises" these songs: Imagine Dragons - Believer youtu . be / 1SlHa4_phuo Harry Styles - Golden youtu . be / uct_g5F1f8o The Beatles - Across The Universe youtu . be / Zb4sIiGLXvc Ariana Grande - God Is A Woman youtu . be / 3I0y66uBRaA Here is a live performance of "Everything Matters" from her latest album together with "Pomme" (Claire Pommet) a French singer/songwriter. Pomme is also featured in the album version of the song, and she wrote the lyrics for the last verses in French youtu . be / yX8bYwl9rKc (Live on Rhythm by Modzik)

Awesome reaction! I really enjoyed that one! Funny, Aurora is always talking about how much she sucks on the keys, but I think that's because she doesn't play them a lot (except when writing). Obviously, when she prepares, she is really, really good. That is indeed probably the best I've ever seen her play. It's absolutely beautiful, and perfectly suited to her vocal arrangement. Perhaps on your own time, you should also watch her Howard Stern and Nidarosdomen performances of this song. She doesn't play the keys on either one, but they're arguably better (or at least different) vocally. With her only having to concentrate on her vocals, she conveys a lot more emotion than she does in this performance. And I know it's probably too late for Aurora week, but I'd love to see you react to her cover of Rasputin at some point. If you want to see Aurora take a song and turn it completely upside down to make it her own, that's the one to see! kzbin.info/www/bejne/fojHkIFjbtNqhK8

Aurora and a piano: Let me suggest you re-watch your reaction to 'A Temporary High' and then watch:- AURORA - A Temporary High - Radio 1 Piano Sessions : kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z53SgWSCesZ9fqc

This is rule one when Aurora drops new singles - be very excited for it - and for the acoustic/stripped version we know is just around the corner.

I was about to suggest something similar 😄. The acoustic/stripped versions made me appreciate that song so much more.

Yess! You pass the test on this reaction, I am happy you found it as mindblowingly good as the other smart people on this channel who have persisted in recommending it. If you had not, well... you would have been judged accordingly. Now I can safely stay for a while longer, and wait for Stromae one day! :

Btw you talked about how it would feel to be in the audience, I found this comment in another reaction video to this version: Frank Tore Johansen 2 years ago I was there in the tiny audience, it was pure magic which is followed by 22 comments of "I'm jealous", and 1 comment of: LaurenJayX0 1 year ago I was there as well! She's simply amazing 👏🏻

You should check out her cover of "Believer". It's my favorite cover by her because I don't like the original from Imagine dragons but I love her cover so much!

Hi... Great reaction... You captured jus about right on the essence of Aurora’s artistry ... She’s able to turn a pumpkin into a carriage after she touches it (no disrespect to the original composers/singers) ... You should check her rendition to Leonard Cohen’s “Famous Blue Raincoat”- kzbin.info/www/bejne/hZLJYZqwhricha8 and the Boney M’s hit “Rasputin”- kzbin.info/www/bejne/fojHkIFjbtNqhK8, both amazing... As a human being I do appreciate Aurora’s talent, as a musician, I do agree with you: nobody should be that talented...LOL... Take care... Shout out from Portugal...
