I am a metal head, but GOD I love Aurora and I'm happy she is back on the channel

[@lucasfalandodoqgosta]

The connection that metal and emotional music have... feels like... metalheads are inner loving people, and that make them fight the hard reality :D

Aurora can relate being also a metal head herself!

I've literally bled in metal pits (Pantera 4 times from Vulgar to Great Southern, and so many other bands with ruthless pits). I adore Aurora. I don't really go to shows anymore - I'm 45 and I'd probably get wrecked in a pit now - but I'd go to see Aurora.

[@TomTomson81]

Aurora is loved by metal fans and she loves metal herself. There is a natural connection. This is not least due to her personality and what she stands for. She also has elements of metal in some songs. She writes her songs from the heart and lives through her heart. She is someone who tackles, takes things into her own hands. She is a creator. She radiates inner peace. I think it also brings out longings from us metalheads. She can party and have fun. I think these are all overlaps. And it is very important that she has always been and has remained down-to-earth from the beginning. She goes her way incessantly. Where do you see something like this in the pop genre these days? Rarely. I would say Aurora is unique.

The first pure love song Aurora ever released. She had decided to not release it, as it felt too personal I think, but her own observations of humanity during lockdown made her change her mind as she thought every single one of us was deserving of a tiny bit of extra love during those times. 100% Aurora in other words.

[@mountieman18]

Aurora is one of those musicians whose entire being seems to made up by the fabric of music. It's as if, if the music were to fade away, they too would fade. And my god, it is the most beautiful thing in the world in my eyes. Every time I stumble across an artist like that, I can't help but cry. It's beyond what I feel I can accurately express with words.

[@erickent4248]

The thing that really seems to set Aurora apart is how theatrical she is. She does not sing a song, she acts it, with every tweak or tinge of her voice, and her eyes and mouth shapes even, which ironically is something that you can hear. Even on her upbeat songs where she is jumping up and down she never seems to lose breath, or the story of the song.

[@nigeldepledge3790]

There is a remarkable live version of A different kind of human recorded during this same session. Silja, The other female vocals in this song had just lost her mother a few days earlier and a different kind of human just hit the feels knowing that. Silja's backup vocals in many of Aurora's songs are just beautiful. The term Backup singer just doesn't give her enough credit. Its like a lead guitarist calling the bass a backup. I love both their voices so much and i think Silja Sol's vocals were so perfectly complimentary. She always matched note for note where she needed to be. Its like she was in Aurora's head at times.

[@daethwing188]

I obviously cannot speak for all metalheads, but as a metalhead of the majority of my life, and from all of my observations of people in life and around music, it is my experience that the majority of metalheads have the most eclectic taste in music in general. Perhaps that is even reflected in how a bunch of headbanging music nerds find so much joy in sharing their passions with an opera singer to see the responses. Seriously though, Aurora has one of the most magical performances, she's a genuinely fascinating human in general too; a true treasure in all ways.

[@rolsen1304]

What is it with these Norwegian/nordic artists that just evokes magic in their music? Aurora, Eivør, Wardruna/Einar Selvik, Heilung, Myrkur, Susanne Sundfør... The music is so powerful, and so very human, and so transcendent. They are literally spellbinding! On a related note, I would love to watch you experience Epica - Once Upon a Nightmare from the Omega Alive show. The goosebump factor is breathtaking, as is the performance.

[@Raijin-RyuX24]

I have a thought on this and will try to put it into words. I believe it’s because artist from that region are more in tune with nature and the natural flow of things. Unlike places like the US where the natural flow is interrupted, manipulated, molded and forced into something ugly and abrasive. It’s not magical because it’s manufactured.

Yep Liz you should take a look in on Aurora, she is touring the US right now and pretty much had the dates country wide sold out while she was still in South America, she drew 18,000 in Mexico City, and she packed the Shrine Auditorium 6k+ on Nov 21st in LA, the Shrine seats 6300, they stood in majority for the entire concert. First time I have ever seen her Live, Soul with no King is awesome, Invisible Wounds is my favorite, she did that solo as the last song, when she came out to bow and leave I thought the Foot pounding and Roar would collapse the Building lol, Aurora isn't unknown in the US anymore^^ This Tour has been very strong for her.

I'm slightly convinced that the 'hook' about her voice that gets most of us is how youthful she sounds. I'm also very convinced that when adults listen to children, we're pretty sure they're about to take us on some sort of mental journey. Combine both of those with very intimate and personal lyrics she's quite consistent with, I feel like she's singing from the perspective of a younger sister that's just really good at expressing her feelings. There is no barrier she's breaking. She just gets in the first time you hear her and she's there forever. It'd be scary if it weren't so lovely.
