Vocal Coach reacts to Aurora - Runaway (Nobel Peace Prize Concert Live)

[@SiilentKillerasdf]

I’m so happy she’s starting to get the recognition she deserves!

[@jdwarferc3754]

Not everywhere. In France where I live, mainstream medias barely broadcasts her stuff it seems. She deserves more visibility here. The proof is that she has only one concert in France next year. Such a disgrace.

Aurora is a thousand years old wise, childlike in her playfulness, adult in her emotional aptitude, looks like an ageless pixy...She relates on any age...or era.

[@Beachbum1Day]

AURORA is a gift to this world.

[@jeffmalloy8200]

This performance was done very early in her performing career. She said at the time she was basically terrified about this performance at this event. She rose above it and all three songs (one cover and two originals) knocked it out of the park! She understands she has a message for those who will listen. She is as vulnerable as finely spun glass and as strong as high carbon steel. Her art rips you apart and heals you at the same time! Who does that? It is almost too intense to bear, but you can't look away. She is a siren in the form of a wood nymph. Resistance is futile. And Beth is correct. Aurora is very socially conscious and a great role model. She ultimately only cares about creating. When initially approached about becoming a recording artist she declined. She never intended it to be a profession. She did it for herself as a way to process her feelings about what she experienced and/or saw others experiencing. Her family had not known she had this gift and her mother said Aurora's songs moved her deeply and convinced Aurora she should share her art with the world if it could help others. Aurora reconsidered even though she is a very private person and had no desire to become famous. She is very empahetic and it looks like it opened her up to being more comfortable around people. I hope she can keep that balance between her personal life and her professional life. If anyone can I think she can. I think she knows where that line is and how precious maintaining that healthy balance is.

[@GS-fd4go]

Brilliantly explained. I wanted to add that her mother told her that her music was like medicine to her and that, besides what you mentioned, is why she decided to share it with us.

Aurora is the fifth element. She must be protected at all costs. If your exploration of her allows, I suggest he official video for her song "The Seed" and her piano cover of David Bowie's "Life On Mars." Each stunning in their own right.

[@matthewmarquis8732]

I always feel like I'm not supposed to be there when I hear her sing. It always feels so personal with her. And, damnit, I cry everytime I witness it. Her quality makes me think of gymnasts doing a floor routine. Vocally tumbling and spinning, building up tons of energy and then bam! tumbling run is over so she slows down before she hits another pass. And always the sadness at the end.

[@louispaquet8185]

Aurora wrote that song at age 11, she is an incredible songwriter, writing a sticky song (a song that stayed in your head after you hear her singing) at that young age, many songwriters aim to have a sticky song in their career, she did it at 11. By the way, I am a 62 years old man and a big fan of Aurora.

Thank you for finally getting back to Aurora, the purist soul on the planet. More please. I’m obsessed with her.

[@alyjiyu]

Found Aurora only just recently...and am utterly captivated by how she uses her whole body as an instrument of pure, unfettered expression. I can't say I've ever felt such profound & real connection in a singer-songwriter before. There is remarkable sense of Presence & authenticity that flows out of her. Aurora is a rare work of art who's unabashedly herself.

[@Dude-etiquette]

She is beautiful, he voice is beautiful and the song is perfect. Written when she was 11. What an amazing person.

[@snofixart]

She once said "Life is so much better without shoes"... she just something different. words can not comprehend her personality

oooh Aurora always makes me cry. She's so amazing. You probably already saw it, but would LOVE your reaction to her live performance at The Current. Her vocal is.... insane. And her backing vocal is also so good! Their harmonies are the prettiest thing I've heard in a long time!

[@thiagocastrodias2]

I really love Aurora, her voice and musical creativity are over the top. Sometimes I put my earphones and listen to her songs while coming home from work. So relaxing and at the same time elevates you.

[@NicolasTatro]

This is a brilliant analysis of Aurora's performance, stressing as you should the intentionality behind her choices. She is clearly steered by her emotions which are expressed through every fiber of her being - her movements as well as her voicing. Well done and hope you can find time to do more on Aurora.

[@NicolasTatro]

I particularly liked your analysis on how she used her breathing to signify increased anxiety and, I would add, being out of breath from running.

[@allergic5]

Yay! Aurora is back on your channel!!! Made my day. Would love to see more of her here. Plus I totally agree with everything you said about her. She's just very wonderfully unique and her concerts are heavenly!

[@hakanandersson1276]

Dear Beth! So glad take this song i nagging alot a year ago about this thiny soulhealer, for you a know there are so many music out there and i nearly forget you. But i was so happy for this. You are very good at react and take analys on artists vocies. For me no one in music industry that have her emotions and storytelling. I know this is probably no way you would react to another Aurora song but my suggest is Lucky in Nidarosdomen that one are going to take your breath away, and perhaps tears. Have a nice weekend Lady 💚💚💚

[@toreheggelund612]

Strange you mentioned "1000s years ago".. She grew up as a neighbour to Lyse Kloster (monastary) in the middle age called "Coenobium Vallis Lucidae." Build and inhabited by english cisterciensermonks 1146-1536. Its a big area and was Auroras playground and also contains a story of a ghost whos haunting the area "The White Lady". During the reformation in 1536 king commanded the monastary demolished and the stones from there is now the foundation of Kronborg Castle in Denmark.. Good reaction and and love that you love her.. Thumb up.

[@johnhmaloney]

She has a really interesting voice and stage presence, reminds me a bit of Sinead O’Connor. I’m definitely going to have to check out some more of her music.

[@BethRoars]

Yes I love her. She is very socially conscious and has lots of beautiful music.

[@jafrazer]

Yes! To me, she's like a mix of Sinead O'Connor and Björk. It might just be the Scandinavian accent, but there's also something about the way the music moves with a nervous energy through her.

[@ClandOp]

[@Geralt26]

I love that you made this Aurora reaction. I watched many reactions of other artist on your channel before (f.e. The Hu and many more) and hoped you will also react to Aurora too. I discovered Aurora this year and this is my favorite artist now - I am very fascinated by her music :). She is very unique and interesting artist and I think her very important characteristic is how much she is "in" performances and how she is able to pass emotions in music. Of course on top of it is great voice and lyrics. As far O know she has natural talent, not trained. She is also a songwriter, not only singer. She started making music from 6 years old and many of her songs comes from the time she was 9-12 years old when she learned English enough to write lyrics (f.e. song "Lucky" she made mostly when she was 9 years old). She was making music "in hiding" and started career accidentally when someone recorded her performance in school any upload on internet. Then someone from music industry contacted her, and she said no at first, but mother arguments changed her mind :).

[@PentonKTM]

Hi Beth, I saw Aurora at the Adelaide Festival last month. I had never heard of her and like all the people in the crowd I was stunned by her talent, stage presence and rapport with her audience.

[@KainzMusic]

Having watched several of her live performances of this song, many times she seems to have a physical reaction after the song ends. There's something deeply personal and she lets it color her performance with the much deeper emotion. She's a star just beginning to blaze across the skies and her light will touch so very many people!

You did a beautiful job of explaining all the minute details, with passion, in layman’s terms enough for the average viewer to understand.

I always wanted to sing, but never felt I had the ability. You make me feel like you could teach me. Thank you for your reactions. It’s more illuminating than just watching and head-nodding.

[@TheMule71]

Shout out to the background singers too. All of them. Can you hear the harmonies @4:10 or @4:19? It's amazingly delicate. Aurora has such a clean voice, the second voice has to be as clean and perfectly in pitch to almost disappear in the background. Yet, it's there if you pay attention.

You know, Aurora was 19 years old when she sang this song on the Nobel stage, even though she wrote it when she was 11. She is now 25. She’s one of those people who will always look younger than she really is. Her music may appeal to younger age groups, but she is too complex for that and her writing and arrangement are appreciated by fans from late teens to over 75.

In my opinion what makes your reactions outstanding in comparison to other channels is that you show and don’t just tell with some fancy words what the artist is doing with their voice. Like here when you demonstrated how „running“ would have sounded if Aurora sang it differently. Or when you demonstrated for which syllable she did switch registers at the phrase “waiting impatiently” For me as a non singer its often not obvious what conscious decisions there are in the singing of a phrase.
