When I saw Rebecca's expression I almost exploded! Hahah, that's so.. yes

[@AriShroom]

First time, second time, every single time that I listen to AURORA.

[@bunnybun9191]

Yes

[@MakkaAmerkhanova2001]

TRUE!

[@Gamecockinnc1]

What happened at 4:00 was the triple effect of Aurora’s movements and self expression, her amazing vocals pulling you in and the lyrics to the song.

[@ryanmrdmpro8251]

Your reaction at 4:00 is basically what I’ve become addicted to since I first heard and started listening to musicians from Norway (where Aurora is from). It’s like you’re just sitting there listening and you don’t know what happened, if anything, but your body feels like it just got hit with this emotional train and you’re like “whaaaat is happening to me???” It’s hard to put your finger on it. There’s definitely something in the air over there. Check that stuff out if you haven’t! Susanne Sundfør, Emilie Nicolas for example. Anyway, great reaction! Awesome to see!

[@mammastenhjerte]

Have you checked out Wardruna? It is a Norwegian band and they are different and divine. Aurora has sung one song with them, Helvegen, you should give it a listen. kzbin.info/www/bejne/fJ_Ohah-hZ6kadE Wardruna and Aurora - Helvegen (Live) They sing in old Norwegian, so here are the translated lyrics, it is a 1000 year old poem about the road to death. This is really primal and goes strait to my spin Helvegen (English Translation) Wardruna Who will sing me Into the death-sleep sling me When I walk the road to Hel And the tracks I tread Are cold, so cold I sought the songs I sent the songs When the deepest well Offered drops so mighty Of Valfather’s pledge I know it all, Odin Where you hid your eye Early or in fading day Still the raven knows if I fall When you stand by the gate of Hel And when you must tear loose Follow you I shall Across the bridge of Gjöll With my song You will be free from the bonds that bind you You are free from the bonds that bound you [Håvamål - The High Ones' Speech, Poetic Edda] Cattle die, kinsmen die You yourself will also die But the word about you will never die If you win a good reputation Cattle die, kinsmen die You yourself will also die I know one thing that never dies The reputation of those who died

I saw an interview where she mentions Kate Bush and Bjork being huge inspirations so it makes sense.

[@lalaladyvk]

I think her voice and hands are more expressive than her eyes...she likes to do this wide eyed expression a lot though. That's her thing lol

[@CaitlintheCasual]

Right before you wondered about what her mind must be like, I was thinking, based on her expressions when she sings, that she seems to see the world in a different way. Her singing is beautiful and ethereal.

[@stephanstern6487]

stop putting it in words Rebecca...just cry like i am doing right now...nobel peace prize event didnt choose her by accident...her outragious attitude is peace and love by itself...thanks again for sharing your feelings with YT community on this song, Rebecca !

The fact that more and more people discover her music and find it beautiful makes my heart warm. Please, react to "It Happened Quiet" or "All Is Soft Inside" cause this songs are so emotional and divine. Thank you again for understanding her music and finding beauty in it.

[@SCOWProductions]

Aurora is my favorite female singer of ALL TIME. Every time I listen to her I'm over come with emotions and I can relate to all her songs, she just such a wonderful human being. You should check out her entire preformence of Nidarosdoem, and prepare to cry 💜

@@rva oh my dear! Prepare yourself to be moved more then you will anticipate. Aurora dos not try to sing it like Bowie did, she makes it her own and add to is. It is breathtaking. She sang it several times before he died, I hope he saw a video of it before he died. I think he would have approved. I feel David and Aurora are kindred spirits.

YES, pls 😩. Honestly that video is what i imagine heaven to be like. She even looks like an angel there

[@mammastenhjerte]

@@christian8156 Yes. I can see that you think angel, I think Elf Queen. In the vevo lift version it seem as if she has a light inside her and she is luminescent and it is shining out of her pores. This song sound ancient and at the same time it is something completely new that feels terribly relevant in our day, all at the same time. It is beyond primal and beyond words, it is pure feeling, and healing. It feels like a hidden magic sprung to life in my whole body, it vibrates through my veins, touches my heart and nourishes my soul. It is as if this songs awakens something in my DNA I did not knew excited, a crumb of the great cosmos within me. Somehow Aurora found this missing piece of humanity and has brought it back too us.

[@element4studios]

I love that you are so affected by the music. You are a professional. But you haven't melted into the profession so deeply that your heart has become shielded from the magic that can happen when the performance connects and opens you up. Please, keep that aspect of yourself. It's lovely.

[@augustprice7550]

I was playing this for a chuckle in my living room, never heard this before but I do love Aurora. She hit that note and my girlfriend from across the room dropped a glass of water and I sat there dumbfounded, tears streaming down my face for no reason. I looked around the room and my girlfriend, my two friends and I were all crying. I literally felt that note like a punch in the chest, no idea why but I FELT that shit.

[@MetricMod]

She does this to many of us. She is tuning into something beyond her vocal abilities. More so than most musicians. One of the rare ones that can line her soul up with her performance to a point where her expression, voice, tone and ability and person are all one. Simply stellar

[@sandercohen3309]

I'd love to see you react to Sigrid. She's a Norwegian artist that's gained a lot of popularity just like Aurora. They're even the same age! If you don't know where to start, I'd suggest "Sigrid at Paste Studio NYC live from The Manhattan Center". You'll get to experience three songs in the span of about 15 minutes. There's also some beautiful backup vocals and piano in there :)

It Happened Quiet is so good, it is off the scale. I cannot stop listening to it.

@@63rdwho Yes it is a masterpiece! listened to It Happened Quiet for months, it is so.... so... magical and insightful. A couple of weeks ago it was Lucky on repeat because I needed it and now it is All Is Soft Inside and I switch between the Live on KEXP performance and the one in Live at Lollapalooza Brasil 2018. I absolutely adore both, in Iceland she is so free, demanding and wild, while she in Brazil is uber feminine and ethereal. I adore how Aurora shows the wild side of womanhood and that all emotions are valid and we are free to live them out.

[@63rdwho]

@@mammastenhjerte I only discovered Aurora about a month ago, and am absolutely mesmerised by her. I too like the KEXP concert, and also the live at Nidarosdomen. And tonight I watched the Lolapolooza in Chicago from 2016. I love how Aurora is not only unique, but also honest. I have watched several of her interviews, and she has no pretentiousness like many mainstream artists. Also, hoping this doesn't sound wrong in any way, she is beautiful too; no piercings, no tattoos, and what little makeup she uses - I know there is always some on stage anyway - is not excessive, just naturally beautiful. Just Aurora. A breath of fresh air in a world where many artists are the same as each other.

The amount of emotions we can feel from 4:00 is really intense. The first few times I heard it, I physically began to shiver as I got overpowered by her voice.

[@christian8156]

Honestly I get it, sometimes aurora brings tears to my eyes. Thank you so much for coming back to her!

[@SunflowerSpotlight]

I’m so glad you did this! Aurora really impacts me in a way not many artists do. Daughter has a somewhat similar impact, but it happens less. “Doing the Right Thing,” “Run,” and “Youth,” are some of Daughter’s I return to. Sometimes music feels a bit... spiritual to me, regardless of the content or subject matter. There’s a feeling of truth in Aurora’s music that just strikes me. I love writing after I listen to her stuff; it’s deeply inspiring, like getting a glimpse behind the creative curtain at what’s possible with the truth of your experience on your side. I’d adore your thoughts on Winter Bird from her first album; it’s... she does some crazy stuff with her vocals. It’s not as out there as Wisdom Cries (I find that technique aggressive enough that it makes me actively anxious, lol) but it’s still very... Aurora. She has some beautiful deep cuts I feel like people won’t be as likely to review or see and it really makes me sad, especially with an artist like Aurora I don’t feel as releases anything superfluous or to pad the track list. Thank you for the wonderful video; it’s a great reminder that even people who are trained to evoke beauty from people aren’t inured to it. There’s just a part of us that responds in a very human way, and I think that’s to be celebrated. ☺️ It was beautiful that it happened and we’re lucky to have gone on that moment with you. Thank you for posting; you add to our days and we appreciate it. 🙏🏻

I LOVE WHEN YOU REACT TO ARTISTS I LOVE. At the beginning, I didn't like her. Her vocals were weird to me. But then I listened to THIS song and I cried my eyes out. She makes me cry a lot (confessions of a metalhead, pt. 1 xD). She reproduces a type of vibration that causes that in me, it is either voice, guitar, cello, keyboards.... There are just some sounds that trigger something. I shake like when having huge goosebumps and then my eyes just liquify. It's amazing.

Following my graduation from Goucher College in Baltimore Maryland, I earned my Israeli American dual citizenship in Jerusalem Israel (my present home of over three years), on November 28th 2016. In the course of my late May 2016 Israeli immigration plane flight from JFK Airport of New York City to Tel Aviv Israel’s Ben Gurion Airport, I screened the film Brooklyn; and I boarded an airplane that would lead me to my becoming an Israeli citizen for the first time; Home for me, is in South Miami Florida; For fourteen years of my childhood, I lived in Westchester White Plains as a past New York native resident; New York holds a special place in my heart still, just as much as South Miami holds a special place in my heart. Home is where your heart resides. Home is family; Family and love is what makes our human world, all the more priceless and wonderful. As my Israeli immigration flight landed in Tel Aviv in late May 2016, after going above the Atlantic Ocean for over nine and a half hours, I knew that I would become an Israeli citizen just as my real mother did, and just as her late mother Salima Chai did (in the 1950s), following most of her childhood residing in Mosul Baghdad Iraq with her parents. In Jerusalem, my late grandmother Salima Chai, gave birth to my loving real mother. My late grandmother Salima Chai, gave my mother an education, loved her so much, and made sure my mother always had her mother by her side; Salima is my Israeli and American family’s greatest Wonder Woman and one of our greatest life inspirations; Salima, would always spread love, kindness, gratitude, and endless joy and happiness to every person, globally, that she ever met; When you spread love, kindness, gratitude, and happiness to all human people in the universe, love, kindness, gratitude, and happiness gets passed along to you in return. In late October 2016, following the passing of my mother’s late mother Salima Chai, I had to, as an Israeli, face the pain and trauma of the death of having lost someone eternally meaningful and loving for my real mother. As I mourned my late grandmother, I decided to carry on her love and kindness led legacy, for my Jerusalem Israeli family and my mother, and ensuring I could support my family and mother as much as I can, every single day, they need my shoulder. In December 2017, I saw The Battle of The Sexes Film; I also saw the film Wonder Woman, La La Land, Mary Queen of Scots, Secretariat, Moonlight, The Beauty and the Beast led by Emma Watson, Three Billboards Outside Ebbing Missouri, and Brooklyn, all films that taught me, that every person and life, has the power to inspire and uplift the world with eternal love, joy, happiness, kindness, compassion, hope, resilience, courage, gratitude, and grace. Since July 23rd 2018 of last summer, I have been correcting computer data algorithms for Mobileye Intel Har Hotsvim Jerusalem, and Mobileye Intel’s QA System, which enables computer machine vision learning technology and artificial intelligence technology, to innovate and repair safe driving technology innovation resources, in order to stop fatal road accidents and save hundreds of thousands of lives every year. A person is judged by the love, that our own human person and soul carries. Never ever give up. Through resilience, love, heart, and courage, anything is possible. Even impossible dreams, can come true, when we love the universe the way we love ourselves." “Hope is the most powerful force in the universe.” ― William H. McRaven, Make Your Bed: Little Things That Can Change Your Life...And Maybe the World. (I believe one day I will win an Oscar Academy Award).

Love this talented young lady. I discovered her 3 years ago thanks to a TV show in Italy (somebody was dancing on "Runaway") and I was completely captivated by her voice and then by her stage presence too. Thank you for this Rebecca 😊

[@karenstark9235]

The artist singing with her is Odd Martin Skalnes.

[@mommoffa]

YES another aurora song ahhh. Thank you

[@mammastenhjerte]

Yes please react to "It Happened Quiet" from Nidarosdomen, that song is like nothing else I have ever heard and it shakes my soul.

[@JontyBlue67]

It's not Aurora sounding like Lana Del Rey. It's the pure Scandinavian tones that Aurora has that have been distributed and distilled around the globe including the USA and UK that triggers the similarity!

[@bri2uty]

I love this performance. I discovered Aurora from your other video of her and she is my entire life now

[@tbz1551]

The experience you had at 4:00 is most likely that you have synesthesia. I find aurora taps into mine more frequently than most musical artists. If you find this sort of thing happens, as most people who are deeply into music do, and others around you can’t quite understand or don’t feel the music the same way you do this is often the reason. They are not the same as us.

[@anishamosc]

Yes yes yes yes

[@guilhermedonato6884]

Waiting for a long time for this

[@gregmoreau693]

The "emotional moment" made me start to weep. So powerful.

[@KristinaSandnes]

I saw her live in my hometown Tromsø, Norway on a mountain. She is literally THE best live performing artist I've seen and heard, and she's funny too!

[@carlflowers1963]

I love your reactions and critiques you are brilliant and funny. When you almost cried… got me a little bit. I love Aurora and I love this video.

[@carolinagonzelaz5054]

Aurora is exquisite, deeply love her

[@cameronpalmer1657]

i love it when you react to aurora, it makes me so damn happy! react to her live performance of “it happened quiet” at nidarosdomen.

[@Percy_Of_The_Sea]

I love all the complements you gave her. I agree. Her voice is very angelic and I love it. I love the whimsical aspects of her music. I love your positivity!

[@ayman9377]

great reaction rebecca i suggest you to listen to this one Wardruna and Aurora - Helvegen (Live) (VIKINGS )

[@mammastenhjerte]

Yes!!

[@sweynskarilsen9105]

Agreed, both Einar and Aurora killed that performance, excellent song.

[@AR-ml9eo]

I absolutely loved your "reaction" or analysis of this song. No superfluous or dumb comments which ruin most "resctions." You stopped at just the right moments. I completely agree with you about that incredibly emotional moment in the song. It was both the horrifyingly beautiful lyrics and her incredible fragile vocals, that drew out the exact same reaction in me. I'm a 58-year old and I teared up. The idea of a 'tender' mercy of killing the one you love to spare them the terrible things that will come, is at the same time a horror and beauty (in the abstract). What songwriting! I only discovered Aurora yesterday. I confess and am ashamed to admit that I had been ducking her videos because of her non-conforming appearance. I finally bit the bullet out of curiosity, and I am head over heels in love. Thank you.

[@Paltoft1975]

You should try listening to Aurora “ through the eyes of a child” the stripped version which is a capella. One of the Best performances i have ever heard.

[@EmmaRoseSmith]

Oh I only found Aurora a few months back but I'm obsessed. Her music speaks to me on a whole other level. She's in a world and league of her own! 💖

[@yusufnoor5852]

She has such a mystical sound. I LOVE it! Kind of gloomy dark adventure teen movie sound track.

[@arctic-1878]

You are great, love both your professional opinions and your humour!
